The Venerable Swordsman

Chapter 49 The Footsteps Came from the Second Layer!

“How is it possible?”

In the courtyard, Li Xuancang fixed his eyes at the back mountain with a trace of disbelief in his eyes. “The sword entered into his body, but he absorbed it. It is impossible… Or, does he have a legendary Innate Sword-body?”

Speaking of this, his eyes shrank all at once.

In the legend, there were some physical constitutions with special traits. Innate Sword-body was one of them. People with Innate Sword-body could be said to be a born Sword Cultivator! This kind of physical constitution was extremely difficult to be seen!

But once this kind of physical constitution appeared, it would definitely be an existence against God’s will!

In the back mountain.

The moment when Ye Xuan broke through to the Qi Harnessing Realm, he turned around and punched violently.

Compared with his punches before, the power of this punch was at least doubled. This was the benefit of the breakthrough!

“Pow!”

The figure before Ye Xuan retreated dozens of meters backward.

At the moment, Ye Xuan also saw who attacked him by surprise. He was a man in a tight black robe, around his twenties with a pair of ice-cold eyes. Apparently, he was a Sword Cultivator! Moreover, he was probably very close to becoming a Great Sword Cultivator!

Because at that moment, Ye Xuan felt that there was a faint Sword Light in the sword!

The man in the black robe stared fixedly at Ye Xuan. “How could you devour my sword?”

Ye Xuan’s look turned ferocious. “We agreed that it was a one-on-one hit but you play such a damn trick. You can go to hell!”

When he finished that, his whole person rushed straight out. In the meantime, a sword appeared in the center of his palm!

The Ling Xiao Sword!

Ye Xuan had achieved the Qi Harnessing Realm, so he was able to harness the Qi now. As soon as the Ling Xiao Sword appeared, wisps of Sword Light exuded constantly from the sword.

The Sword Light.

The sign of Great Sword Cultivators!

Seeing this scene, the Cangmu College students in the field were greatly shocked!

The man in black opposite Ye Xuan was also full of disbelief. “A Great Sword Cultivator, you are now actually a Great Sword Cultivator…”

Even though he was only a little distance to become a Great Sword Cultivator. But this little distance might trap him there for a decade, two decades, or even longer!

The man in the black robe didn’t have time to think more because Ye Xuan had already come up to him. He cut his sword down and many wisps of Sword Light were darted out of the sword at the time when the sword was down.

The face of the man in the black robe changed greatly. He stomped his right foot fiercely against the ground. With the help of the pushing force, he swiftly drew back. However, it was still too late, several wisps of the Sword Light directly penetrated his chest.

“Sizzle! Sizzle! Sizzle! Sizzle!”

The man in the black robe staggered a few steps and fell to the ground. Blood was sputtering from his chest!

Hardly when Ye Xuan stopped, his face changed a little because a white shadow was coming toward him!

It was the man in white who had just played against Mo Yunqi. It was obvious that the man wanted to save the man in the black robe at this time.

Ye Xuan was expressionless. Holding the long sword, he dashed forward at a high speed!

At the tip of the sword, a wisp of Sword Light was shining!

The eyes of the man in white narrowed, his hands violently trembled all of a sudden. A powerful blue airflow swept out of his body and then it formed a blue barrier, but it failed to block Ye Xuan’s sword.

Ye Xuan’s sword cut the blue barrier open easily, but it stopped a few centimeters between the eyebrows of the man in white because his opponent’s hands seized Ye Xuan’s sword firmly!

At this moment, the hands of the man in white emitted a bundle of flames, and it was these flames that withstood the Sword Light came out of Ye Xuan’s sword!

At this instant, Ye Xuan suddenly pounced on and kicked the man in white who then reacted very swiftly. He loosened Ye Xuan’s sword at once and pressed down.

“Pow!”

Both Ye Xuan and the man in white fell back about ten more meters at the same time!

When Ye Xuan just stopped, Mo Yunqi and Bai Ze came to his left and right side. At this moment, the upper body of Bai Ze was covered with red palm prints. Especially the print on his chest, it was severely dented already and looked rather scary. Mo Yunqi was no better. His whole right arm was completely broken and it couldn’t move at all. Blood was still oozing from his mouth corners. Obviously, he was hurt badly.

But the man in white and the man in black were not injured!

Then the eyes of the man in white and the man in black all fell on Ye Xuan. At the point when they started to strike, an old man suddenly appeared in front of them.

It was Mr. Ji!

Right after Mr. Ji just landed, Li Xuancang appeared in front of him.

Mr. Ji took a long and hearty drink. Then he looked toward Li Xuancang. “How about this? You just go ahead and kill these three little guys, will you?”

Li Xuancang squinted his eyes. He certainly knew what Mr. Ji meant. Once he killed these three guys, Mr. Ji would definitely start a life-and-death battle. If a strong person at such a high level like Mr. Ji acted recklessly, Cangmu College would absolutely suffer a heavy loss. Particularly if he laid hands on the younger generation, Cangmu College had no such confidence to protect those young people from Mr. Ji.

Because it was really hard to stop this kind of strong man!

After a while, Li Xuancang suddenly turned to look at Ye Xuan. “You really surprised me, but it doesn’t matter. The next year on the path of Cangshan Mountain, your body will be hung there.”

After that, he turned and walked away with the students of Cangmu College.

Waiting until Li Xuancang and the others left, Mr. Ji turned to look at Ye Xuan and the other two. “Do you know who the man in white and the man in black are?”

They shook their heads.

Mr. Ji said calmly, “They are two of the three remarkable talents in Cangmu College. You should feel lucky that the other didn’t come today. Or else, I should have been picking up your bodies now!”

Ye Xuan and the other two all remained silent.

Mr. Ji added, “The two men just now didn’t exert all their efforts, but all of you did everything you could. The purpose that I let them in was to show you how weak your current strength is compared to students from Cangmu College. As what the damn old man just said, if you don’t work hard, one year later, your bodies will be hung on the path of Cangshan Mountain for real. At that time, I can’t even pick up your bodies!”

After he finished, he turned and left, but he stopped after a few steps. “Right, I remember. The two men just now are not even the top students in Cangmu College. The best ones are Fen Jue and Bei Chen. If you are against them with your current strength, you will have ten chances to die but no chance to live.”

In the field, Ye Xuan and the others kept silent.

All of them looked dignified. They knew that Mr. Ji didn’t frighten them because they had seen the strength of the man in white and the man in black!

It was very horrifying!

Even Ye Xuan, who had already achieved the Qi Harnessing Realm, was not sure that he could defeat the two men just now. He might get a chance to defeat them if he wielded the ‘One Sword Strike Decides Life and Death’! However, these two were actually not the best in Cangmu College!

A sense of crisis!

This time, all three felt a sense of crisis. In the past, they lived a heartless life every day. Even if they practiced every day, they were forced to do so by Mr. Ji, rarely voluntarily.

But now, the three people were very clear that if they didn’t become stronger, their bodies would definitely be hung on the path in the future!

Even Ye Xuan felt the crisis.

No matter what it used to be, one thing he must admit now was that he was a Canglan College student. Whether he wanted it or not, he had to bear the previous feud between Canglan College and Cangmu College. Moreover, when Mr. Ji saved his sister, he promised him that he would do his best to fight against Cangmu College and he would bring those bodies on the path of Cangshan Mountain back!

Practicing!

The three left the field in silence, and then they parted to practice.

Ye Xuan was still punching the hill. After the battle, he was somewhat enlightened. Thus, this time, he was not simply punching. Using his Conceptual Battle Skill, he tried to add the ‘momentum’ in his punch.

The Punch Momentum!

This was definitely also the purpose of Mr. Ji asking him to punch the hill!

The so-called launch a punch meant that the punch should have the momentum! The momentum in a punch could split the ground and shatter the hill!

After he got a thorough understanding of this point, the force and momentum in Ye Xuan’s punch became increasingly stronger. He paid the price of course. His hands were already bruised and torn all over!

At night, Ye Xuan was so tired that he collapsed in front of the hill. Lying on the ground, he gasped for air while watching the stars in the sky.

Tired was not his only one feeling, he also felt wonderful!

Very wonderful!

After he let all his strength go, he felt extremely smooth and clean!

Seemingly thinking of something, Ye Xuan suddenly sat up. He spread out his palm, in the center of which suspended a sword!

The Ling Xiao Sword!

At this moment, the Ling Xiao Sword was a little different with before. He couldn’t tell what it was exactly. He could only feel the difference!

According to his guess, it should be because he had absorbed the previous sword. The level of that sword was not low. It should be at the level of Spiritual Sword. Of course, it was certainly not as good as the Ling Xiao Sword. Otherwise, the sword could have killed him at the first strike!

The core of his ‘Invincible Sword Body Incantation’ was the sword. The better the sword in his Elixir Field, the more effective his practicing method would be, and then he could use this practicing method to devour more swords!

The swords!

Thinking of this, Ye Xuan seemed to remember something major. He glanced around and saw no one was around, then he entered into Prison World Tower immediately.

Surrounding by the endless starry sky, Ye Xuan stood under the tower. He looked up at the tower top where three swords were inserted!

From his point of view, he could only see the general figures of the three swords. He wanted to take a closer look, but regrettably, he hadn’t achieved the Ascending Realm so he couldn’t fly yet. Therefore, he could only watch them from the distance.

Looking at the three swords, the expression in Ye Xuan’s eyes was hot. His intuition told him that if he could take these three swords as his Elixir Field, there would be no sword in this world that he couldn’t consume!

At this moment, the Prison World Tower suddenly shook a bit. Ye Xuan was stunned for a while, and he quickly entered the first layer. He glanced around. “Predecessor?”

The mysterious woman did not answer!

Ye Xuan’s brows wrinkled and he was about to talk. Right at this moment, he suddenly looked up.

A brief moment of silence.

“Thump!”

Over Ye Xuan’s head, there came a sound of footsteps.

When he heard the footsteps, Ye Xuan froze immediately. At first, he thought he had heard it wrong, but soon—

“Thump! Thump! Thump! Thump!”

The sound of the footsteps was getting increasingly louder and stronger!

Ye Xuan’s eyelids jumped. “Who is that?”

No one answered, but the footsteps became denser, louder and stronger. In the end, the entire first layer of the Prison World Tower started to tremble.

Right at this time, Ye Xuan abruptly looked up at the entrance to the second layer which suddenly began to tremble fiercely. Seeing this scene, Ye Xuan’s eyelids jumped. “Is this guy coming out?”
