Sword Sovereign of the Celestial Emperor
Chapter 617 617, Three-Departure Swordsmanship
Rip!
In the horrified stares of the crowd, a sturdy green arm reached out from the void, stirring chaos. Shortly after, green ethereal light blossomed, and a colossal green face burst out from the void, spanning a hundred meters in width and height. A majestic aura descended from it, bathing the entire world in emerald.
Simultaneously, a sacred aura emanated from the giant face, making everyone feel a heavy pressure on their shoulders, as if a mountain of thousand pounds was crushing them.
"Is this the Sect Leader?!"
The congregation of the Wood Profound Sect was flabbergasted, eyes full of disbelief. It was their first time seeing the Sect Leader, as in the entire Wood Profound Sect, only the two Vice Sect Leaders had the privilege to meet the Leader. Nobody would have expected the Sect Leader to be of such appearance.
"Dare to come to our Wood Profound Sect and kill, then leave your life here!"
Suddenly, an evil child's voice emerged from that colossal face, its voice echoing like a divine decree from the Nine Heavens.
"Hahaha, to search high and low only to find it effortlessly, who would have thought that the tiny Sect Leader of Wood Profound Sect is actually the transformation of the Wood Profound Fruit!"
The instant the giant face appeared, Liu Shengchuan hesitated briefly, then laughed heartily, a trace of joy flashing in his eyes.
Liu Shengchuan's words carried no hint of concealment, his voice clearly audible to everyone present.
Wood Profound Sect's Sect Leader is actually the transformation of the Wood Profound Fruit?
This news was a bolt from the blue for them.
"The Sect Leader turned out to be the Wood Profound Fruit?!"
One disciple muttered, then suddenly lifted his head, his gaze towards the giant face becoming scorching hot.
Wood Profound Fruit, a Nine Heavens Divine Object, for martial artists cultivating wood attribute techniques, it was an invaluable treasure. A single Wood Profound Fruit could save them hundreds of years of cultivation time.
"No wonder the Sect Leader's whereabouts are mysterious, never daring to appear before us; he is actually the transformation of the Wood Profound Fruit!"
Situ Lei and the Second Elder's expressions changed dramatically, they quickly turned to Vice Sect Leader Yu Lie, noticing his calm demeanor without a trace of turmoil, clearly indicating he already knew the true identity of the Sect Leader.
"Hmph!"
Once his identity was exposed, the Wood Profound Fruit snorted coldly, its whole face suddenly transforming, forming limbs, face shrinking, resembling a child, but with narrow, barely concealed killing intent in his eyes.
Boom!
The ethereal green palm of the Wood Profound Fruit lightly waved, unleashing a terrifying green storm tearing through the sky. The entire hall collapsed, Lvbo City gradually obliterated in the storm, countless martial artists' bodies were shattered, blood flowed in rivers.
"Pfft..."
Under the terrifying storm's pressure, Situ Lei and the Second Elder spit a mouthful of blood miserably, while Yu Lie, already severely injured, suffered further wounds under the pressure.
Among the martial artists present, only Chu Ming and Liu Shengchuan remained unmoved, facing the storm without a trace of fear.
Swoosh!
Before the green storm could get close, the sword in Liu Shengchuan's hand moved, calling out like a silver dragon, its sword tail shooting cold light. With the terrifying secrets of the sword technique, he swiftly struck at the center of the green storm.
Crack!
The green storm shattered on the spot, its remnants dispersed in all directions.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
The buildings of Lvbo City collapsed, forcing the crowd to retreat rapidly. Those who couldn't retreat in time turned into pools of blood.
Chu Ming stood tall in the hall's ruins, eyes calmly fixed on the battle in the sky.
Liu Shengchuan's sword was formidable; at least the strongest swordsman in Sword Dao Cultivation Chu Ming had ever seen. Moreover, Liu Shengchuan cultivated the Sword of Slaughter, integrating his essence into every swing of his sword, each strike dazzling like a heavenly horse soaring through the sky.
In comparison, the Wood Profound Fruit's illusion was the simplest and crudest in attack methods, each strike carrying world-ending power, like a deity aiming to destroy the world.
Boom!
The illusionary figure of the Wood Profound Fruit suddenly formed an ancient giant tree, its lush green leaves radiant. A terrifying suppressive power directly struck at Liu Shengchuan!
Though the Wood Profound Fruit had significant intelligence, its attacks lacked strategy, straightforward and brute force.
Rip!
"Fire Element Swordsmanship!"
Swish! Swish! Swish!
Flaming sword auras rose in the air, their chilling tearing power sweeping across. Liu Shengchuan's expression remained cold and indifferent, standing upright in the sky. As his fingers slightly moved, each tremor of his blue longsword unleashed a flaming sword aura towards the Wood Profound Fruit!
Boom! Boom! Boom!
For a moment, the sky was filled with flames like burning clouds, engulfing the heavens, and a drop of flame fell, instantly scorching a hundred-meter deep pit into the ground.
Rip!
The ancient tree shadow of the Wood Profound Fruit wasn't weak either; its branches entwined, smashing the flaming sword auras into pieces.
Chu Ming intently watched the sky battle; Liu Shengchuan and the Wood Profound Fruit were clearly equally matched. As for who would emerge victorious, it was likely the Wood Profound Fruit.
After all, the Wood Profound Fruit was a Nine Heavens Divine Object, a spirit of heaven and earth, drawing spiritual power ceaselessly from nature, unlike Liu Shengchuan, who had to draw exorbitant amounts of spiritual power from his sea of spiritual power with each sword strike. How could a martial artist's sea of spiritual power compare to the power of heaven and earth?
Boom!
The next clash, Liu Shengchuan's face gradually paled. His sword speed showed a slight pause, extremely subtle, but Chu Ming's exceptional soul power still made it discernible.
Swoosh!
"Three-Departure Swordsmanship!"
Buzz! Buzz! Buzz!
The sword essences in the air darted like lightning; one red, one purple, and one green, three extreme sword auras swiftly rose from the ground. The slaughter, destruction, and void of three types of secrets of the sword interweaved, changing the air color completely.
Rip! Rip!
These three extreme sword lights transformed into thousands, slashing at the Wood Profound Fruit from all sides. The terrifying sword auras tore through the sky, each slash leaving a deep sword mark on the Wood Profound Fruit's illusionary figure.
Almost instantly, the child-like illusion of the Wood Profound Fruit became riddled with holes; its tender face showing a trace of pain, fueled by endless wrath, the child-like illusion revealed a hint of evil aura.
"Black Heaven Green Wood Scripture!"
Boom!
From the illusionary figure of the Wood Profound Fruit, black mist spread out with green strands intermixed. Tiny threads shot out from the black mist, flexibly entwining towards Liu Shengchuan!
Bang, bang, bang…
Sword lights struck the threads, sparking countless embers. Three-Departure Swordsmanship was exceedingly intricate, partially drawing on the power of heaven and earth. Chu Ming estimated it should be a middle-tier secrets martial arts.
