It went silent.
It was as if the entire world had fallen quiet.
Everyone was intimidated by the aura of solitude emanating from Lei Shuangxing.
Standing there with twin swords in hand, he stood in World-Apart Independence.
But such an aura clearly could not last long on Sword-Severing Prairie.
Gu Qing'san looked toward where Lei Shuangxing stood, and it was as though the man himself had vanished.
What he saw were three swords.
Yousi Sword, the Soul-Drawing Staff...
And one human-shaped sword! "Such a realm..."
With a blink of his eyes, his vision blurred.
Gu Qing'san knew he could wait no longer.
With that level of sword intent, where man and sword became one, that blind man was very likely to gain Yousi Sword's recognition.
If he waited any longer, even the daylilies would have gone cold.
Yet before he could move, layer upon layer of sword-intent shockwaves suddenly erupted from where Lei Shuangxing stood.
"Rumble, rumble, rumble..."
Mud flew into the air, and dust danced like dragons.
Before everyone's horrified eyes, Yousi Sword's demonic patterns instantly spread across Lei Shuangxing's entire body.
It was as though a second He Yuxing had appeared.
But Lei Shuangxing's current state was even more crazed.
He stood motionless, yet gave off the oppressive madness of a storm about to break.
Anyone could sense powerful evil thoughts gathering within Lei Shuangxing—taking shape, trying to erupt.
"Charge!"
Suddenly, a beam of black light burst from Lei Shuangxing and shot straight into the sky.
This change left everyone staring in stunned disbelief.
"What's going on?"
"Where's the demonic-energy backlash? Why hasn't this guy exploded?"
"Something's wrong—very wrong!"
"Could that beam shooting into the sky mean this guy has gained Yousi Sword's recognition?"
Everyone became uncertain and alarmed.
Even the Red Robes were shaken.
"Recognition?"
Xin immediately
