Seven Kill Thunder Rises, One Sword Breaks the Vast Sky!

By evening, Chen Yu and Chen Xiaojun, grandfather and grandson, arrived at Babel City and met Cheng Yun and Ma Fan, who had left a mark behind.

"How's the situation?" Chen Yu asked.

"According to the information we've gathered over the past two days, there's a small Pegasus Group on the northwest side of the Wild Horse Plains. Its leader has Ten Thousand Year Cultivation, and there are several Thousand-Year pegasi. We haven't had time to scout it yet."

"Mm. Tomorrow, I'll personally take Xiao'er to have a look."

The next day, early morning.

The Wild Horse Plains extended seventy to eighty li deep into Babel Mountain. They were Meadow Grassland, with an average elevation above 1,500 meters and a grassland area of around a hundred square kilometers.

The grandfather and grandson flew over the 2,800-meter-plus Babel Mountain and arrived at the South Slope. What entered their eyes was the grassland at dawn, a boundless green carpet as far as they could see.

Facing the faint light in the east, Chen Xiaojun stepped across the soft grass. He paid no attention to the heavy dew soaking his shoes and trousers, because the fresh air on the grassland was simply impossible to get enough of. His mouth was filled with the scent of nature, and even the cool mountain wind could not compare to this pleasure that seemed to seep straight into the heart.

There were tens of thousands of wild horses on the Wild Horse Plains. Gathered here were Grassland Horses, Mountain Horses, and Forest Horses, aside from Desert Horses. There were more than a dozen types of horse-type spirit beasts alone. Besides pegasi, there were Horn Scale Horses, Sky Dragon Horses, Unicorns, Crimson Blood Horses, Flame Horses, Wind Walker Horses, Devouring Horses, and so on. It was a large gathering place for horse-type spirit beasts.

Though horse-type spirit beasts were not as great a race as wolves and other spirit beasts, they were not weak either.

They continued flying in search of the pegasi. Far below in the distance, the earth was a vast green ocean, dotted with countless black specks leaping at great speed. Those were thousands upon thousands of horses galloping, jumping, clamoring, and neighing, charging toward them like a gale and towering waves, unstoppable as Surging Waves. That momentum was both breathtaking and full of romance.

"Found them," Chen Yu's voice rang out in the wind.

That entire herd of spirited yet orderly luminous white steeds freely and joyously displayed their heroic bearing in the raging wind! Excitement! Exhilaration! Charge! Struggle! Collision! Spray! That herd was more unrestrained, more passionate than any other living thing!

With majestic momentum and wind beneath their four hooves, the fine horses galloped across the endless plains, revealing an immense power. Their mighty iron hooves rang out with a "clatter, clatter."

This was a Pegasus Tribe formed by a Horse King of more than thirty thousand years, a dozen or so Thousand-Year Spirit Beasts, and dozens of hundred-year White Feather Horses. Though their numbers were not great, on these Wild Horse Plains they were a first-rate herd.

The two of them were seen descending rapidly from high in the sky, landing three to four hundred meters in front of the pegasi. They stood on their swords in midair, their auras intense, blocking the Pegasus Group head-on.

As the Horse King, a Ten Thousand Year spirit beast with intelligence, looked at the spirit masters ahead who radiated an extremely dangerous and malicious aura to horses, it knew that slowing down during a high-speed run was courting death. It could only be heard urgently neighing, "neigh, neigh... whinny, whinny..."

The herd unfurled their pure white feathered wings at the same time. Whirling air currents formed around the limbs beneath them, and the Soul Power and wind force on their bodies rapidly gathered together, forming a massive vortex shield. It was the herd's joint attack technique, Divine Gale Thorns!

This was the symbol of the strength that allowed them to look down upon the Wild Horse Plains.

The Horse King stomped heavily with all four limbs and fanned its wings, several zhang wide. The spiral wind shield, gathering the herd's power, howled toward Chen Yu and the others with a tremendous impact.

Unrestrained, ostentatious, destructive, annihilating, sending grass dancing through the air.

Soul rings slowly revolved around Chen Yu's body: yellow, yellow, purple, purple, black, black, black, black, black. Nine soul rings. Titled Douluo!

Chen Yu carried a charm of Dao Follows Nature, his Soul Power drifting with his sword fingers.

"Seven Kill thunder rises, one sword breaks the vast sky. Sword Light Azure Sea Sky Sword, break!"

That was right. The poem of the Sword Shadow Body Chanting Method was the name of the later Chen Xin's Eighth Soul Skill. Perhaps it was because Chen Xin's Eighth Soul Skill greatly resembled "Azure Sea Sky Sword," so he directly took these two lines as the soul skill name; perhaps Chen Xin's cultivation was profound, and his Eighth Soul Skill had fused with "Azure Sea Sky Sword"; or perhaps Chen Xin was only chanting, and the soul skill's real name was "Move Mountains and Fill Seas" (snicker).

A massive blue sword light a hundred meters long appeared, accompanied by the cry of a sword that resounded through the heavens.

"Azure Sea Sky Sword" appeared before Chen Xiaojun's eyes for the first time. The flying sword stretched across the sky, vast and majestic, and in an instant a sharp and fierce momentum rushed toward them. Its power was obvious at a glance; compared with Ling Yunxiao's "Azure Sea Sky Fan," the difference was like heaven and earth.

As one of the four simplified forms of the Sword Control Ultimate Move, "Azure Sea Sky Sword" was the highest application of the Seven Kill Sword's sword light. It was most often used for fencing-type and thrusting-sword-type attacks, and it was the move most commonly comprehended by members of the Chen Clan.

Two magnificent forces collided head-on, producing intense shock waves of energy, flames, and heat, while also generating enormous pressure.

One side was the combined attack of dozens of mid-to-high-level spirit beasts. The other was one of the most supreme existences in the world of human spirit masters: a Titled Douluo.

The result was that before long, the sword edge tore through the void, and an unmatched sharpness surged outward. The vortex heavenly-gang shield was pierced by "Azure Sea Sky Sword" and shattered section by section. Though the herd had astral winds protecting their bodies, they were all sent flying and hurled down one by one, suffering injuries of varying severity. Chen Yu lightly shook out the front of his robes and slowly flew toward the herd with Chen Xiaojun.

"The long swords of the Thirty-Six Peaks remain, Star Dou Qi, Yu ZhengRong! Sword Array Sword Light Seals the Sky, decree!"

This was one of the three complex ultimate moves of the Sword Control Technique, a sealing sword array with attack, defense, enemy-trapping, and suppression.

Thirty-six beams of Seven Kill sword light descended from the sky. These sword lights transformed into vertices, distributed in a diamond shape around the herd.

The next moment, a powerful sense of oppression swept over them from every direction. A tremendous sealing force, varying according to each horse, made the struggling pegasi unable to move, yet not to the point of harming them.

"Sixth Soul Skill—Sword Chaos Universe!"

Around the pegasi, countless blue sword lights appeared, dancing like swords. These sword lights, flickering like stars, made one feel a biting chill while dazzling the eyes. They emitted astonishing sword qi, forming an erupted sword momentum as sword qi rushed into the clouds.

As a control-range-type Sixth Soul Skill of a Titled Douluo, it possessed a surging power of confinement and fused seamlessly with the sealing power of "Sword Light Seals the Sky," complementing each other and forming an even greater suppressive force.

"Grandfather's Sixth Soul Skill is similar to Chen Xin's Sixth Soul Skill, Ten Thousand Swords Return to Origin. It's just that once Chen Xin's Ten Thousand Swords Return to Origin is activated, tens of thousands of sword lights descend from the sky like a torrential rain of swords, while Grandfather's forms around the enemy. In terms of force, Chen Xin's might be stronger, but Grandfather's soul skill is better at winning by surprise and has more uses." Chen Xiaojun instinctively compared them in his mind.

Although Chen Yu did not unleash the second half of the move as an attack, it still left all those pegasi lying on the ground unable to stand again. The pegasi that had remained standing slowly collapsed as their limbs trembled, including the Horse King. Their Soul Power and blood qi were both confined, completely unable to circulate.

"I'll borrow your child for a moment," Chen Yu said, beckoning with one hand. Without any visible fluctuation of Soul Power, a luminous white pegasus rose into the air and was pulled over by him from a distance. He brought it and Chen Xiaojun soaring into the sky.

It wasn't that I couldn't find better lines, but that I felt "Seven Kill thunder rises, one sword breaks the vast sky" matched "Sword Light Azure Sea Sky Sword" very well.

As for your Recommendation Tickets and collections, I'm rubbing my hands together in anticipation, hehehe.
