CHAPTER 327: CHAPTER 290: VERY BOLD

Pure and clear silver Sword Qi appeared out of thin air around Gao Xuan without any warning.

The silver Sword Qi was extremely thick, clearly sword energy yet as heavy and viscous as mercury, full of texture.

The silver Sword Qi enveloped Gao Xuan, instantly congealing into a set of majestic and magnificent silver armor.

Isis sensed the silver Sword Qi’s profound and endless power, realizing something was wrong, the golden light of the War Spirit Sword in her hand suddenly shone brightly.

The intense golden light even engulfed Gao Xuan.

Isis mobilized her divine power, exerting all her might to continuously unleash her Quick Sword. The War Spirit Sword struck like a chain, issuing hundreds and thousands of consecutive thrusts.

Gao Xuan countered moves with moves, the Hongyi Sword resembled an exceedingly calm lake, no matter how swift the War Spirit Sword was, it could only stir up ripples on the lake surface, unable to cut through.

With each ripple of the Hongyi Sword, the Heaven and Water Sword Intent was in operation.

The Water Heaven Sword might not be as mature as the Aurora Sword, nor as powerful.

However, this was a Swordsmanship he comprehended on his own, exceptionally harmonious with his sword and personal state.

Its operation was even more effortless than the Aurora Sword.

The Heaven and Water Sword Intent possesses the expanse of the sky and the perseverance of water.

The sky’s vastness is empty, yet the water’s persistence is solid, this balance of void and substance captures the true essence of Sword Dao.

Isis’s Swordsmanship was driven by divinity, both fast and strong, with nearly perfect angles, power, and speed.

However, such control of power with divine intuition ultimately lacked an understanding of Swordsmanship. On the Sword Intent level, it wasn’t very sophisticated, relying entirely on the strength of divine power.

In terms of Spiritual Power, Gao Xuan might not surpass the Evil God of the Charm Race, but he was much stronger than Isis. The Evil God competing with him using Isis as an avatar couldn’t gain any advantage on the spiritual plane.

On the Sword Intent plane, it far outmatched her.

On the Hongyi Sword, the water light rippled, constantly transforming and circulating between void and substance.

The divine power on the War Spirit Sword, in this way, was repeatedly diminished. The advantage of divine power was there but couldn’t be wielded effectively.

Gao Xuan blocked the War Spirit Sword but had no time to turn to face the enemy.

Han Changchun’s Cold Blood Sword and Feng Zhengjing’s Soul-breaking Sword stabbed Gao Xuan almost simultaneously.

The silver armor formed from Celestial Spirit Sword Qi was triggered to erupt with overwhelming, unmatched Sword Qi by those two Sword Artifacts.

Han Changchun and Feng Zhengjing stumbled backward, unable to control themselves due to the thick Sword Qi’s shock.

The Celestial Spirit Sword Box had absorbed so many Sword Artifacts that it had now upgraded to the Eighth Layer. The Sword Qi reached 1.28 million degrees!

This was a terrifying number.

Generally speaking, only Golden Level strongmen could have Source Power exceeding a million degrees.

Like top-tier Sword Heroes such as Han Changchun, reaching 360,000 degrees in Source Power was near their limit.

The Celestial Spirit Sword Box is also restricted by the Source Power environment, typically maintaining its Sword Qi around 400,000 degrees.

Even so, it was far superior to Han Changchun. Although the Celestial Spirit Sword Qi condensed into armor, when activated by external force, the Celestial Spirit Sword Qi erupted immediately.

The upper limit of the Celestial Spirit Sword Box was 1.28 million degrees. On Sea Dragon Star’s environment, the Celestial Spirit Sword Box could almost output extreme Sword Qi without limitation.

Han Changchun’s Cold Blood Sword was chillingly fierce, excelling in slaughter.

Feng Zhengjing’s Soul-breaking Sword was treacherous in its path, favoring annihilating the enemy’s Divine Soul with Sword Intent, thus earning the name Soul-breaking Sword.

The two top Sword Heroes of Sea Dragon Star naturally armed themselves with Biochemical Battle Armor when they attacked, fully unleashing their personal combat power.

Yet they couldn’t have expected Gao Xuan not to dodge but to withstand the attack with his armor.

What they didn’t foresee was the Celestial Spirit Armor’s Sword Qi being stronger than the two of them combined.

The Soul-breaking Sword and Cold Blood Sword were both directly blasted away by the Celestial Spirit Sword Qi.

Both Han Changchun and Feng Zhengjing felt their limbs weakening, their Source Power surging, and their Biochemical Battle Armor cracking with intersecting lines.

Fortunately, the two of them were in Unity of Body and Sword, keeping their swords from being blasted away.

Even so, the two top Sword Heroes were left in a sorry state. They completely engaged with the Celestial Spirit Sword Qi in an unprepared situation.

Seeing an opportunity, Gao Xuan flashed and swung his sword horizontally, ready to slash.

Isis was alarmed, hurriedly chased Gao Xuan with a rapid thrust. These two top Sword Heroes were very important, they couldn’t die now.

"Good timing, one for each of us!"

Gao Xuan briefly communicated with Isis using Spiritual Power. As he swung the Hongyi Sword back, a beautiful water ripple appeared out of nowhere.

Isis’s rapid thrust of the War Spirit Sword disrupted by the ripple, redirected the thrust straight into the chest of the Cold Blood Sword.

The Cold Blood Sword, Han Changchun was filled with shock, but his whole body was numb and weak from the Celestial Spirit Sword Qi, unable to resist. He could only watch as the War Spirit Sword pierced his chest.

After tearing through the Biochemical Battle Armor, the fierce Sword Qi on the blade of the War Spirit Sword blasted Han Changchun’s upper body into pieces.

Isis knew something was wrong, but Gao Xuan’s strike was exquisitely brilliant, the surging Sword Qi like a rapidly spinning ball. All her power was used in that thrust, and the Sword Qi’s rotation left her unable to withdraw the sword.

Moreover, forcibly withdrawing the sword would trigger the internal surge of Source Power, revealing a gap.

With Gao Xuan’s Swordsmanship, he would undoubtedly seize the chance for a fatal blow.

Isis could only go with the flow. As for Han Changchun’s death, it was somewhat regrettable but only somewhat.

As Isis was slaying Han Changchun, Gao Xuan horizontally slashed and sliced Feng Zhengjing into two pieces.

Thus, the two top Sword Heroes perished, leaving the others in the hall dumbfounded.

The key point was that one of them was killed by Isis. Although it seemed unintentional, quite a few people felt uneasy, wondering if Isis seized the opportunity to eliminate dissent.

Gao Xuan gave Isis a thumbs up: "Nicely done."

With a cold face, Isis waved her sword aggressively, the War Spirit Sword transforming into dazzling golden lights shooting forth.

Gao Xuan raised his sword unhurriedly to meet, and he still had the mood to chat with Isis: "How about we each kill half of the guys in the hall?"

Isis didn’t answer, she just added strength to her hand.

The dual swords clashed hundreds of times, and each clash stirred up layers of Sword Qi.

Isis’s Quick Sword was getting faster, but Gao Xuan appeared even more composed. The transformation of divinity into Sword Intent was quite exquisite. However, this Charm Race Evil God was ultimately lacking in Swordsmanship, only repeating a few moves back and forth.

After exchanging hundreds of swords with Isis, Gao Xuan saw through her tricks and flaws.

It’s not to say that the opponent’s sword skills posed no threat to him, but he could handle them with ease.

Earlier, he even caught Isis’s desperate pursuit flaw and used her sword to kill Han Changchun.

Of course, Isis could have forcibly withdrawn her strength. She just didn’t want to take the risk, so nothing could be done.

Isis didn’t respond, but Gao Xuan didn’t let her off: "The War Spirit Sword can absorb the War Spirits of the strong ones it slays. The more experts killed, the stronger the Sword Artifact becomes. With so many Sword Heroes here, they can serve as sacrifices..."

The Sword Qi vibrations triggered by the clash of the Hongyi Sword and the War Spirit Sword roared and crisscrossed. The various tables and chairs in the hall were all shattered under the Sword Qi.

Yet, the turbulent Sword Qi couldn’t suppress Gao Xuan’s voice. Everyone heard what Gao Xuan said. The faces of the crowd all changed.

Although everyone knew Gao Xuan was trying to sow discord, he wasn’t just talking nonsense either.

If Isis really found she couldn’t deal with Gao Xuan, sacrificing the crowd to the sword wasn’t impossible.

Though many Silver Sword Heroes were present, they were all hesitant, and no one dared to act rashly.

Han Changchun and Feng Jingzheng’s bodies were still lying there, and no one wanted to rush to their deaths.

Gao Xuan further mocked Isis: "Your subordinates are no good either. The boss is fighting while the group is just watching the show."

He then said: "You’ll soon show your true form, let your little minions witness..."

Isis kept a cold face and didn’t make any response. As a Divine, she had encountered all kinds of people.

But it was her first time encountering someone like Gao Xuan, who was both talkative and annoying.

The key was, no matter how hard she tried, she couldn’t overcome Gao Xuan.

As the powers of both sides continuously escalated, Gao Xuan seemed to have fathomed her Swordsmanship changes, dealing with it more and more calmly.

The Silver Sword Heroes in the hall were all as timid as mice, none had the courage to stand up.

Isis also knew that the level of Swordsmanship she and Gao Xuan displayed was too advanced, the many Silver Sword Heroes were scared. Not to mention those Swordsmen.

Han Changchun and Feng Zhengjing’s deaths made the group realize she couldn’t suppress Gao Xuan, and even more did not want to take the risk.

However, Isis was her strongest avatar. It wouldn’t help if she replaced it with another avatar.

Even more terrifying, if the deadlock continued, Gao Xuan might very well kill them all.

Isis realized this and hesitated no more. She suddenly let out a sharp screech and began to transform.

A cluster of Golden Light transformed into a magnificent robe, draping over her. On her head, there was an additional Golden Crown inlaid with gemstones. Her face was also covered by an ancient Bronze Mask.

The expression on the Bronze Mask was quite peculiar - one side smiling, the other crying.

The Joy and Sorrow expressions were patched together, extremely strange yet eerily harmonious.

The Joy and Sorrow Mask was the divine state she presented to her followers.

The numerous Silver Sword Heroes, upon seeing the Joy and Sorrow Mask and sensing the familiar divine aura, were all stunned.

It turned out that Isis was actually Muse, no, she should be an incarnation of the god.

No matter the real situation, they had all once sworn allegiance to the deity of the Joy and Sorrow Mask.

Even though these oaths were just lip service to them, to Muse, they held real power.

This meant that with Divine Power witnessing, a contract was formed between both parties. Unless she died, the contract would not become void.

Muse had lost patience with the crowd. The weak and useless Noble Youth weren’t worth significant use.

Without the Dragon God, underground mining couldn’t continue either. Keeping these Nobles around would only be trouble. Hercules also needed an explanation.

This time, might as well clear out these guys altogether. It could also save Isis!

Muse was exceptionally pragmatic and ruthlessly decisive, hesitating no more after making up her mind.

She pointed with the War Spirit Sword in hand, countless Golden Light fluttered and danced like hundreds of golden birds chirping together.

Muse said in a deep voice: "Fight bravely, fearlessly. All brave ones shall return their souls to the Divine Country and gain eternal life!"

Her pronunciation was slightly odd yet had a powerful and mesmerizing charm, making people involuntarily believe her.

Even Gao Xuan found Muse very charming, wanting to obey and assist her.

Momentarily confused, he snapped back to his senses with the cry of the Six-winged Celestial Cicada.

"Impressive, truly a professional at enchantment, much more skilled than those relying on appearances!"

Gao Xuan sighed inwardly, then saw Yang Zifeng and others charging with red eyes, wielding swords.

Dozens of Sword Heroes lost their reason and feared no death; that power was terrifying. The ferocity of a group of Sword Heroes charging was truly intimidating.

"This fierce..."

Gao Xuan’s left hand pressed virtually, and Celestial Spirit Sword Qi surged forth.

The boundless Celestial Spirit Sword Qi resembled hundreds of colossal silver waves, crashing head-on with the Sword Heroes charging forward.

Streaks of Sword Qi crisscrossed and shimmered, and the silver waves shattered under the slashes of the Silver Sword Heroes.

The Hongyi Sword silently unfolded, its layers of Ming Che Sword Light radiated outward.

Where the Sword Light passed, swords broke, people were cut.
