Yi Yun's Sword

"A sword?" Zhulong smiled when he saw the rusty broken sword in Yi Yun's hand. He naturally knew that Yi Yun Dual Cultivation swordsmanship and archery.

He even knew that Yi Yun possessed a broken, tattered sword. During the Empress Secret Realm trial, Yi Yun had taken out the broken sword and used it to kill Shentu Nantian.

Those young talents who emerged from the Empress Secret Realm would naturally describe their experiences in this regard.

Yi Yun's strength was far too great for the young talents who were in the Empress Secret Realm at the time, and they were naturally shocked. However... when they heard the description of Zhulong, a Reincarnator, they didn't think much of it.

Reincarnator been reincarnated several times, how could someone so arrogant be intimidated by a junior?

"Your knife was exchanged in the Martial Arts Alliance's treasure vault, and I broke it with a single punch. As for your sword... is this your sword?"

Zhulong looked at the broken sword in Yi Yun's hand with disdain.

He wouldn't underestimate the weapon Yi Yun had taken out. He had previously guessed that Yi Yun had obtained this broken sword from the Empress Secret Realm, but upon seeing it today, the sword was dull and rusty.

Having lived for countless ages, Zhulong was knowledgeable and experienced. He was confident in his exceptional insight, and even ordinary treasures, though covered in dust from the passage of time, could reveal their extraordinary nature to him.

Yi Yun's hand, Zhulong didn't think it was anything special.

A peerless Divine Weapon may have lost its luster, but it will never rust. Even if the Divine Weapon is broken and has lost its spiritual power, its original material must still be of the highest quality.

Even after millions of years, such a material, while not necessarily as shiny as new, shouldn't be in such a dilapidated state.

For example, the pair of black gloves on Zhulong's hands are called the Heavenly Punishment Hand. They come from an abyss world different from the Tianyuan Realm. Their existence time is unknown and must predate the history of the Blood Moon.

Even after such a long time, these Heavenly Punishment Hand still contain immense and unparalleled energy.

Yi Yun's broken sword, however, was completely useless.

The fact that this sword is so worn out means that Yi Yun's sword must have suffered a devastating blow, with even the material being damaged, making it unable to withstand the erosion of time, which is why it is covered in rust.

No matter how powerful an ancient treasure is, if even its own materials are destroyed, it becomes nothing more than scrap metal.

From the Empress Secret Realm, I found a discarded ancient treasure. It could only be of some use against a useless person like Shentu Nantian; it was utterly worthless in front of me.

Using such an ancient artifact against oneself is simply courting death.

"I will break your sword, along with your body!"

"Vital Energy Battle Body!"

The distorted space around Zhulong's body contracted again, clinging to the surface of his body.

Gravity, space, and energy mixed together to form a force field tightly adhering to the body of the Candle Dragon.

"Hmm? This is..."

Yi Yun was slightly taken aback. The Divine Ability that Zhulong used in this battle were all things he had never seen before, and were completely different from the field that Yi Yun cultivated. The path of martial arts is known as the Three Thousand Great Daos, with laws that are ever-changing and endless.

The force field trembled, forming thin, hair-like gray flames that rose from the body of the Candle Dragon. The Candle Dragon's power and aura continued to increase, with the amplification already reaching more than 20%.

Yi Yun could tell that this was a power boost brought about by a secret technique and a law.

Blood Moon is an ancient organization. In fact, the core of Blood Moon, known as the first generation of Blood Moon, consists of only two or three people.

They are the de facto rulers of the Blood Moon, and the Candle Dragon is one of them.

The Blood Moon's best resources, its finest heritage, and its accumulation over tens of millions of years were all used by these two or three individuals.

The rest of the people, whether Reincarnator or Yin Sha, are their subordinates who serve them.

Take Zhulong for example. His mastery of Space Law far surpasses that of other Reincarnator. The reason for this is that Zhulong once obtained a "World Stone".

The so-called "World Stone" is the cornerstone of the world. A small world has a foundation for its existence, and that foundation is the World Stone, which is the core of a small world.

Zhulong had refined the World Stone of a small world, which allowed him to reach a terrifying level of understanding of the Space Law.

"Azure Dragon Hegemonic Blood!"

Zhulong threw a punch; his speed had reached its limit!

Since the start of their battle, Yi Yun's moves have become increasingly powerful, yet Yi Yun remains solemn and shows no sign of carelessness.

Holding the broken sword, the image of the astonishing sword mark he had witnessed at the Pure Yang Sword Palace flashed through his mind.

"Kill!"

Yi Yun unleashed a sword strike, and behind him, the Golden Crow and the Nine-Headed Serpent soared, merging into the Sword Light. The Sword Light poured forth, shattering everything in its path. Around Yi Yun, the viscous and distorted void was torn apart by his Yi Yun strike, and the broken sword plunged straight into Zhulong's fist!

On Zhulong's fist was the Heavenly Punishment Hand, a glove-like magical artifact that was extremely difficult to forge.

The Heavenly Punishment Hand is undoubtedly one of the most prized treasures in the Blood Moon Armory.

The glove, worn on the fist, was like a black hole, sucking in the surrounding light.

In contrast, Yi Yun's broken sword appeared dull and lifeless.

"I'll shatter your sword and your arm!"

Zhulong roared and slammed his fist into the broken sword.

"Boom!"

The distorted space rippled like water, and primordial energy shot out in all directions, tearing apart the earth and severing mountains.

The members of the Heavenly Blood Alliance present were so shocked that they retreated repeatedly. Fortunately, after the dozen or so bursts of energy that shot out earlier killed the members of the Heavenly Blood Alliance, they had already created distance. Otherwise, the casualties would have been even more severe this time.

In such a violent collision, the scene that Zhulong originally expected—to smash Yi Yun and his sword together with a single punch—did not happen. Instead, he felt a tremendous force coming from his hand; the broken sword was unimaginably hard.

Even the best glove-based magic weapon is still soft; in a head-on clash, how can it compare to a sword?

"Snap!"

With a sharp crack, Zhulong's expression changed, and he felt a piercing pain in his hand. His right finger joint had been broken in the collision!

How could this be!?

A broken finger bone is considered a minor injury to a martial artist, and can be recovered in a day or two.

But in such an intense battle, how can you possibly have time to heal?

Zhulong's heart sank. He couldn't believe that the broken sword in Yi Yun's hand was actually a divine sword.

The sword was rusty, a sign of metal decay. How could such decayed metal possess such power?

In the blink of an eye, before Zhulong could even think, Yi Yun turned around and slashed at Zhulong's neck with his broken sword!

With a single sword strike, endless Pure Yang Flame erupted, scorching even the void itself.

"Court death!"

With a roar, Zhulong raised his left hand and grabbed Yi Yun's sword.

With the Heavenly Punishment Hand on his hand, catching knives and swords was effortless. However, when Zhulong grabbed Yi Yun's sword, he felt a sharp pain in his palm bone, as if the sword was about to cleave his hand in two.
