Chapter 334: Chapter 299: Jiang Yao's Swordsmanship
The number of Ye Chen\'s Void Heaven Sword Qi had previously been over eighty million, but now it had suddenly increased by over forty million, reaching the enormous tally of over one hundred and twenty million.
Even without witnessing the battle between Ye Chen and Murong Qiqi, everyone understood that Ye Chen must have defeated a powerful cultivator with a substantial amount of Void Heaven Sword Qi to have such an immediate and significant increase.
Seeing Murong Qiqi\'s ranking drop from seventh and then being eliminated,
All the Sword Cultivators instantly realized, Ye Chen had eliminated another formidable figure in the mid Spirit Sea battle zone—Murong Qiqi!
A battle between two top ten powerhouses on the Void Heaven Sword Ranking!
Now, for the first time, a top ten powerhouse was eliminated, which was a shock to all other Sword Cultivators.
If these cultivators knew the details of the battle between Ye Chen and Murong Qiqi, they would be even more astounded.
This was not just a battle between top ten powerhouses but also involved a clash at the level of Law Sword Seeds. Even Murong Qiqi, who had unleashed his Law Sword Seed, was defeated by Ye Chen. If the other powerhouses on the Void Heaven Sword Ranking knew this, they would probably be unable to remain calm right now.
"One of the top ten has been eliminated, Murong Qiqi is out!"
"Having taken Murong Qiqi\'s Void Heaven Sword Qi, now Ye Chen\'s count has soared to over a hundred million in quantity!"
"It seems I need to seek out stronger cultivators with more Void Heaven Sword Qi to battle. Initially, I planned to fight later but now it looks like I should snatch up some Void Heaven Sword Qi first, to increase my amount and attract more attention!"
In the late Spirit Sea battle zone, Mo Beiling, upon seeing Ye Chen still occupying first place on the Void Heaven Sword Ranking and his Void Heaven Sword Qi breaking past one hundred million, his eyes sparked with determination.
He then ignored those nearby opponents with lesser amounts of Void Heaven Sword Qi and, after sizing up the globe of Void Heaven Sword Qi around him, shot toward a Sword Cultivator nearby who had over twenty million Void Heaven Sword Qi.
Mo Beiling was not the only one, after seeing Ye Chen eliminate Murong Qiqi and his Void Heaven Sword Qi explosively increase, other Sword Cultivator powerhouses also truly began the battle of the strong.
In the early Spirit Sea battle zone, two youngsters with the most Void Heaven Sword Qi directly clashed with each other.
In the late Spirit Sea battle zone, Xiao Feng, ranked eighth, immediately started his battle with Fang Luohan, ranked sixth. Ling Yue, ranked ninth, likewise challenged Xuanyuan Wuhen, ranked tenth.
As the true battles of the strong erupted, the rankings on the Void Heaven Sword Ranking also began to shift dramatically.
With the battles proceeding, Luo Qiancheng from the Eastern Star Desolate Islands in the early Spirit Sea battle zone defeated another young Sword Cultivator from the Central Region, causing his ranking to surge and elevate him to the ninth position.
In the late Spirit Sea battle zone, in the battle between Xiao Feng and Fang Luohan, Xiao Feng was defeated, and Fang Luohan\'s Void Heaven Sword Qi also explosively increased to over sixty million strands!
These battles were intensely fierce, but in the hearts of all the spectators outside of the Void Heaven Sword Valley, none of these battles compared to the sword fight between Ye Chen and Murong Qiqi in terms of intensity.
For none had reached the level where both combatants were of the Law Sword Seed tier like the fight between Ye Chen and Murong Qiqi.
However, these cultivators didn\'t have to wait long before another earth-shattering battle descended upon the late Spirit Sea battle zone.
Following the battle between Ye Chen and Murong Qiqi, two top-ranking powerhouses on the Void Heaven Sword Ranking clashed once more—Jiang Yao, ranked second, encountered a challenge from Lu Xiaojia, ranked third.
Before the battle began, Jiang Yao\'s count of Void Heaven Sword Qi had already reached over eighty million strands, while Lu Xiaojia also had over fifty million strands.
The victor between the two would be the second person to break past one hundred million Void Heaven Sword Qi after Ye Chen.
This battle attracted countless Sword Cultivator elites from around the area to watch, including Liu Qingmei, who had been by Jiang Yao\'s side all along, and even Fang Luohan, who had defeated Xiao Feng, turned his attention to this clash.
The countless warriors outside the arena were equally focused on the battle between Jiang Yao and Lu Xiaojia.
After all, among the two, Jiang Yao was the powerful girl who, before the Sword Fighting Competition, could defeat the three strongest Rotating Pill experts with a single move, hailed as the invincible Rotating Pill master. In the gathering of Void Heaven Sword Qi, she ranked second, trailing just behind Ye Chen by a slight margin, and also a talented girl who had gathered more than forty million strands of Void Heaven Sword Qi.
Everyone wanted to see just how powerful Jiang Yao\'s true swordsmanship was.
The previous challengers to Jiang Yao weren\'t very strong Sword Cultivators, but now Lu Xiaojia was the perfect opponent to test the true power of Jiang Yao\'s swordsmanship.
Lu Xiaojia, before the Sword Fighting Competition, was the most favored among the top six candidates to win the championship, even momentarily getting more calls to win than Ye Chen.
Moreover, in previous battles among the fourth-ranked Sword Cultivators, Lu Xiaojia had won first place in numerous sword fights, earning him the title of the number one Sword Cultivator of the fourth rank.
Such a youth\'s battle with Jiang Yao was, of course, a spectacle that commanded great attention!
And when the two truly began their sword fight, the scene of the battle shocked countless people immensely.
The level of surprise was by no means lesser than the battle between Ye Chen and Murong Qiqi.
In the battle, both Jiang Yao and Lu Xiaojia initially used high-level Sword Formations. After dozens of moves, Lu Xiaojia still could not defeat Jiang Yao.
At this point, Lu Xiaojia finally revealed his trump card, one that nobody knew before the Sword Fighting Competition. Like Murong Qiqi, Lu Xiaojia had also comprehended a type of Law Sword Seed.
The one he comprehended was known for its strongest offensive power among the five major Law Sword Seeds—the Metal Law Sword Seed.
When Lu Xiaojia used the Metal Law Sword Seed, Liu Qingmei and Fang Luohan, who were watching the battle, were incredibly astonished, and the countless warriors outside the arena exclaimed in shock.
Indeed.
Unbelievably, after Ye Chen and Murong Qiqi, this Sword Fighting Competition saw the emergence of the third person to master a Law Sword Seed!
What\'s more, this person who mastered the Law Sword Seed finally emerged among the Central Region\'s Sword Cultivators.
This sent the warriors from the Central Region, who made up the largest group of spectators, into complete frenzy.
However, before these Central Region warriors could enjoy their excitement for long, the battle between Lu Xiaojia and Jiang Yao shocked them once again.
Because, even after Lu Xiaojia took out the Metal Law Sword Seed, known for its strongest offensive power, he still couldn\'t defeat Jiang Yao. During the battle, Jiang Yao brought out a set of swordsmanship that no warrior had ever seen.
A mystical sword technique, bolstered by the divine illusion of an icy blue phoenix!
Even more so, in the end, with this sword technique, Jiang Yao completely defeated Lu Xiaojia, who had used the Metal Law Sword Seed.
Divine Arts!
When the last move from Jiang Yao activated, it instantly drew upon all the power of the endless void, causing Lu Xiaojia\'s Metal Law Sword Seed power to collapse completely. Between the heavens, the sky was filled with Jiang Yao\'s endless icy blue sword shadows, several formidable Heavenly Saints who were watching from outside the arena cried out: "Divine Arts!"
These Heavenly Saints recognized that Jiang Yao\'s sword technique, which completely shattered the power of the Metal Law Sword Seed, was definitely a powerful Divine Art they had never encountered!
Divine Arts!
Following the Law Sword Seeds, they actually witnessed sword technique Divine Arts in the Sword Fighting Competition!
This was absolutely unprecedented in the thousands of years of the Sword Fighting Competition!
