I, Qin, Acknowledge You as the Strongest

Qin Wangchuan looked at him.

Suddenly, I took a deep breath.

"Feel sorry."

When I first met Li Xuan, I just thought he was a pretentious show-off.

They didn't have any particularly impressive performances in the subsequent encounters.

Apart from the troublesome Sword Seals, there seems to be nothing else worth worrying about.

Until the moment their swords clashed—

He suddenly realized.

I had always underestimated Li Xuan.

Although he was defeated, his opponent was by no means weak.

Has anyone ever told you that your sword is very strong?

Li Xuan was taken aback for a moment, then smiled.

"I said that."

"But this is the first time I've heard it from your mouth."

"It may sound arrogant... Li Xuan." Qin Wangchuan readjusted his stance, sword tip pointing towards the distance, "I acknowledge you."

"Your sword is very strong!"

The two figures collided again!

This time, Qin Wangchuan was fully committed.

No need for any roundabout tactics, just a direct attack.

And they only attack from the front.

Li Xuan used the techniques of deflecting force and Borrowing Strength, so simply increasing the intensity would not work.

Speed is essential.

Unparalleled speed.

As Li Xuan became completely absorbed in the moment, his movements began to slow down in Qin Wangchuan's eyes.

Slower and slower, slower and slower.

So slow that the trajectory of each sword strike was clearly visible.

However, at a certain moment...

Sudden!

Li Xuan's movements suddenly quickened.

No, it wasn't his action.

It's an afterimage.

A blur was ripped off Li Xuan and stabbed at an even faster speed.

One sword.

Immediately following the second afterimage, even faster.

Two swords.

A third afterimage followed closely behind, each sword strike faster than the last.

Three afterimages overlapped, and the future sword intent unfolded before our eyes.

Qin Wangchuan was very familiar with this feeling.

That's a picture of the future.

But in the next instant...

Something suddenly bloomed deep within his pupils.

Golden light, like a lotus in full bloom, spread outwards from the deepest part of the pupil.

From that instant on, the world in Qin Wangchuan's eyes changed.

Not now.

No longer the future.

Instead, countless timelines unfold simultaneously, and countless possibilities play out at the same time.

His aura changed immediately.

It grew taller.

It has become dangerous.

It has become insurmountable.

But Li Xuan was equally resolute.

He surpassed himself in battle.

In battle, he surpassed Qin Wangchuan.

Then Qin Wangchuan overtook him again.

The two exchanged blows, their Sword Light flashing.

The movements were too fast, exceeding the limits.

Far away.

Zhou Yunyi stared in disbelief at the scene.

He murmured, "Is Li Xuan... that strong?"

"Powerful?"

Chu Wujiu chuckled softly.

"Li Xuan was a monster before. Even someone as strong as me has been defeated by him several times."

"Stop bragging." Yan Wujin pointed at the two people on stage whose movements were getting faster and faster, his brows furrowed. "The key question is, is this really going to cause any problems?"

It's good that Li Xuan has become stronger.

However, Qin Wangchuan's eyes were lifeless, clearly indicating that he had also entered some strange state.

And.

The Supernatural Power Sword in his hand, inscribed with "The This World's Mystic Law Sword," was also changing.

With each impact, the sword gleamed a little brighter.

The Dragon Scale on the hilt began to spread, blooming outwards and climbing up the blade.

The entire sword was becoming ferocious and terrifying.

Is that the effect of Calamity of Ten Thousand Ages?

Or will my Jie Jin Jian Wo?

Yan Wujin didn't know.

But he knew that if things continued like this, things would get very bad.

"It's different from before," Ji Wuchen's voice came from the side. "We must become stronger in battle, and surpass ourselves in battle."

"If we can't do it, we'll still lose."

"Li Xuan was the first person to realize this."

Several people fell silent.

On the stage, Sword Light clashed.

Yun Zexuan, the strategist who had always been there, kept his eyes narrowed and remained silent.

His gaze was fixed on the two figures on the stage.

He's waiting.

Waiting for an opportunity.

A crucial opportunity.

The speed of their Sword Light strikes increased dramatically.

Then, it abruptly ended at a certain moment.

Li Xuan staggered back several steps, his right hand bones shattered, leaving it a bloody mess.

The invisible and intangible Supernatural Power Sword flew out of his hand, tumbled a few times in the air, and landed diagonally in the arena.

He stood there, panting heavily.

Sweat dripped from his forehead onto the broken ring.

Qin Wangchuan slowly sheathed his sword and let out a long breath.

The two swordsmen were evenly matched in their swordsmanship contest.

But the fact that they were evenly matched meant that he lost.

He possesses superior comprehension, powerful Dragon Armor, and Supernatural Power Sword imbued with Saint Law magic.

Only after adding these factors could he achieve a draw with Li Xuan.

But upon closer examination, it's not actually surprising.

Li Xuan only had eyes for the sword.

His life revolved solely around the sword.

But Qin Wangchuan must embody multiple paths, even tens of thousands of paths!

Under such circumstances.

The Sword Dao was lost.

But the battle--

We won.

Qin Wangchuan had just exhaled a breath.

The next instant.

He felt a finger tapping on his back.

It's very light.

It was so light it felt like an illusion.

It is Yun Zexuan.

Qin Wangchuan had anticipated this troublesome person.

Turn around.

Draw your sword.

This sword strike will surely hit its mark.

However--

It's empty.

Yun Zexuan lowered his head, the sword blade grazing past his hair.

The difference is minuscule.

He stood up, strolled leisurely to the left, holding his Law Treasure, and chanted:

1.

Within a breath.

Qin Wangchuan drew his sword twice.

It's empty too.

Yun Zexuan's figure weaved through the Sword Light his sword, each step landing precisely in the gaps between the falling blades.

That's not a prediction.

It is foresight.

What he saw was a future that was bound to happen.

2.

Qin Wangchuan's sword missed its mark once again.

Yun Zexuan silently recited the mantra, his steps never faltering.

Go right.

Next, take a step back.

Go further to the left.

His movements were fluid and graceful, as if he had already foreseen the outcome of the battle.

Five seconds.

For five seconds, he was invincible.

3.

Yun Zexuan continued to dodge, but suddenly realized something was wrong.

Qin Wangchuan's actions...

Following.

In the foreseeable.

'Can they predict my actions in reverse?'

Yun Zexuan sighed inwardly.

That's terrifying.

This is Qin Wangchuan in his selfless state; only when you truly stand before him do you realize how terrifying he is.

4.

We can buy ourselves another second.

But that's not enough.

Qin Wangchuan's movements in his egoless state were astonishingly fast, terrifyingly fast.

If this continues, he will die in half a second.

Yun Zexuan took a deep breath.

"Don't call me despicable; after all, you are Qin Wangchuan."

The words had barely left his mouth.

The Body Swap Talisman is activated.

Qin Wangchuan's sword struck empty air.

The figure in front of me suddenly vanished.

Instead, a figure engulfed in flames appeared.

Extremely close distance.

They were so close that they could feel the heat emanating from each other's skin with every breath.

Yan Wujin.

He grinned.

At this distance, there's absolutely no need to use any magical techniques.

He himself is a perfect bomb.

"The Heaven and Earth Law? The Heaven-Burning Sea-Boiling Wisdom King!"

The flames ignited on the arena for the third time.

Flames shot into the sky, engulfing the two of them.

However, the timing was wrong.

Qin Wangchuan is currently the fastest and strongest!

A flash of Sword Light.

The "Heaven-Burning Sea-Boiling Wisdom King" has just taken shape and is not yet fully formed.

The three swords have fallen.

There was no sequence; it seemed as if they happened simultaneously.

The first sword strike came down from directly above the head, reaching the groin.

The second sword strike cuts in from the left shoulder, sliding down the ribs and out the side of the waist.

The third sword strike descended from the right shoulder, piercing through the chest and down to the base of the leg.

As the three swords clashed, Yan Wujin's body split vertically into five pieces from head to toe.

Every cut was as smooth as a mirror, not even a trace of blood had time to seep out.

The Heaven and Earth Law collapsed with a deafening roar.

All five body parts slid off at the same time.

Blood then gushed out and splattered all over the ground.

In an instant.

The Lingyun Talisman was already used when the Heaven-Opening.

Now, no one can save him.

Qin Wangchuan sheathed his sword.

There was no time to catch one's breath.

From behind, another figure suddenly appeared.

Even if it's Supernatural Power Sword, I'll still chop it down without hesitation!

Chu Wujiu, wielding the Heaven-Opening War Halberd, brought it down in a downward strike!

Before the halberd even arrived, the Heaven-Opening Intent filled the entire arena.

Qin Wangchuan raised his sword to meet him.

Clang!

A crisp sound echoed throughout the entire arena.

Chu Wujiu's pupils contracted sharply.

Even the others couldn't believe their eyes.

"Blocked it?"

"How is that possible? That thing can block the Heaven-Opening War Halberd?"
