Man-Sword Unity?

Chen Cang froze for a moment, staring at Bai Shaokong in astonishment.

Sword Demon was equally surprised.

Jian Qiu was even more taken aback. "Man-Sword Unity?"

Bai Shaokong grew smug. "Never seen it before, have you? Today, I'll let you see what Man-Sword Unity is."

"Take my sword!"

In an instant, Bai Shaokong seemed to transform into a streak of sword light, arriving before Jian Qiu in the blink of an eye.

He thrust his sword!

Fast!

Faster than anyone could have expected!

Jian Qiu abruptly retreated, but Bai Shaokong had already circled behind him and stabbed out with another strike!

Boom!

Jian Qiu's expression changed drastically as sword intent erupted around him, encircling his body.

Bai Shaokong moved like a flying sword, circling Jian Qiu and attacking without pause.

His speed had already surpassed what someone in the Spirit Sword Realm should possess.

Even more terrifying, Bai Shaokong himself seemed to have become a humanoid sword.

Chen Cang looked suspicious and astonished. What kind of Sword Evasion Technique was this?

It resembled Man-Sword Unity, and its speed far exceeded what this realm should allow.

Sword Demon grew serious as well.

Jian Qiu might have comprehended sword intent, but Bai Shaokong seemed to have turned into a sword. His speed was no longer something sword intent could suppress.

The battle between Bai Shaokong and Jian Qiu fell into a stalemate once more.

Chen Cang was shocked. Why could he not discern the origins of Bai Shaokong's Sword Evasion Technique?

Could it be that it did not belong to Sword God Mountain?

Yet such a profound sword Dao art could only have originated from Sword God Mountain.

Bai Shaokong's heart surged with excitement. Though he should have been at a disadvantage, he had once again relied on the Sword Evasion Technique Su Fan had taught him to even the gap between them.

Jian Qiu held the upper hand with sword intent, while Bai Shaokong held the upper hand with speed. As the two advantages canceled each other out, they once more became locked in a bitter struggle.

Neither could claim victory!

Sword Demon's expression darkened. He had arrived with such overwhelming fanfare, yet he had failed to suppress Sword God Mountain!

"Sword Demon, do you still wish to continue?"

Chen Cang asked calmly.

Sword Demon snorted coldly. "There is only one person in all of Sword God Mountain worthy of taking the stage. How can it be considered the orthodox sword Dao?"

Chen Cang stepped forward, his expression icy. "If you refuse to accept that, this old man will fight you. I would like to see whether your so-called Number One Sword Under Heaven is merely an undeserved reputation!"

"Very well!"

Sword Demon laughed. "I also happen to want to see what abilities Sword God Mountain's last peak sword cultivator possesses!"

Boom!

Sword intent surged forth, tyrannical beyond measure.

Chen Cang's white hair fluttered as his sword intent pierced the heavens. A sword emerged behind him.

Bai Shaokong and Jian Qiu had both stopped fighting and retreated separately.

Sword Demon's and Chen Cang's sword intents crashed against each other, shaking the surroundings.

"They're about to fight?"

At Cliff of Reflection, Su Fan looked toward the Sword Testing Platform.

At that moment, two streams of sword intent clashed with each other, growing stronger and stronger. A great battle could erupt at any moment.

"I just hope the old man doesn't lose."

Su Fan shook his head. For the time being, he had no ability to intervene.

He had to subdue the Forbidden Sword first.

At that moment, as his lifespan burned frantically and poured continuously into the Forbidden Sword, along with the various forbidden arts and methods Su Fan kept feeding into it—

The Forbidden Sword, which had originally been greedy, began to sway.

Its greed was receding.

It seemed somewhat afraid!

It had devoured too much lifespan.

So much that it was frightened!

And those were forbidden arts.

Has he gone mad?

He keeps feeding me forbidden arts?

The demonic nature of the Forbidden Sword was frantically withdrawing.

It had the illusion that it had boarded a pirate ship!

"Submit obediently. Other than me, no one can develop you into a Sword Dao."

Su Fan's consciousness communicated with the Forbidden Sword.

This was a Dao sword, the embryonic form of the Sword Dao. It surely possessed spirituality.

"From now on, you're mine."

Su Fan's consciousness turned into a giant hand and reached for the Forbidden Sword.

Buzz!

The Forbidden Sword trembled and showed signs of resistance.

It was unwilling to submit!

"You don't want to behave?"

Su Fan revealed an evil smile.

Boom!

His lifespan burned wildly, pouring into it without end, while sword intent from all kinds of forbidden arts surged forth.

The Forbidden Sword trembled.

Like a little girl shivering in fear.

"Heh heh heh..."

Su Fan's consciousness gave an evil laugh.

"Be good. Look how much lifespan I've given you. Other than me, who can nurture you? Behave, and I'll develop you into a Sword Dao."

The Forbidden Sword continued trembling.

On the Sword Testing Platform, the collision of sword intents became increasingly fierce.

"Almost there. It's about to submit!"

Su Fan was ecstatic.

He could sense that the Forbidden Sword was beginning to yield.

In terms of demonic nature, how could it compare to him?

As for being forbidden—

Everything he cultivated was forbidden arts. He himself was a taboo!

"You're the Forbidden Sword. Other than me, who could possibly be worthy of you? Obey me!"

Su Fan's consciousness once again became a giant hand and grabbed toward the Forbidden Sword.

The Forbidden Sword trembled as it resisted.

Its resistance was weakening.

A faint fragrance brushed against his face, and a cool, breathtakingly beautiful figure suddenly arrived.

Ling Rushuang!

"Senior Sister Ling."

Su Fan raised his head to look at Ling Rushuang.

After her breakthrough, Ling Rushuang appeared even colder and even more beautiful.

Su Fan could sense the Frost Divine Sword within her body.

It was precisely because the Frost Divine Sword had entered her body that she had broken through so quickly.

Otherwise, she would have needed more time to achieve a breakthrough.

"Su Fan, I'll send you away from Cliff of Reflection."

Ling Rushuang spoke.

Su Fan was surprised. Send him away from Cliff of Reflection?

Now was not the time.

Once he subdued the Forbidden Sword, he would naturally leave.

Thus, he shook his head. "Senior Sister Ling, I think Cliff of Reflection is quite nice. It's quiet and undisturbed."

"Do you really think so?"

Ling Rushuang looked surprised.

"Yes!"

Su Fan nodded, then added, "When I want to leave, I'll naturally leave."

Ling Rushuang fell silent. Her expression was hesitant and conflicted. She looked at Su Fan again and again, as if she did not know what she was thinking.

Su Fan could not help touching his face.

Could it be that Senior Sister Ling wants to keep a pretty boy? Me?!

The way Ling Rushuang was looking at him seemed a little off.

"Su Fan, with your talent, the Profound Sword Realm is almost certainly the limit of this life. Have you... made plans for your future?"

Ling Rushuang took a deep breath.

It seemed she had made some important decision, and her expression grew resolute.

"My future?"

Su Fan rubbed his chin. "I haven't thought much about it."

"Have you ever considered leaving behind an heir for yourself?"

Ling Rushuang looked elsewhere, her gaze somewhat evasive.

Su Fan's spirits lifted. What did Senior Sister Ling mean by this?

He put on a sorrowful expression and sighed. "Even if I wanted to, I'd need a woman willing to marry me. Although I'm not bad-looking, still..."

Ling Rushuang took another deep breath and looked at Su Fan. "What do you think of your senior sister?"

At that moment, Ling Rushuang made a decision in her heart. Aunt Qing, I'll make sure he has an heir!

Su Fan's eyes widened. Though he had already guessed it—

When Ling Rushuang said it aloud, he still found it hard to believe.

"Senior Sister, you want to bear my child?"

Just then, amid the two clashing sword intents on the Sword Testing Platform, a scarlet, scorching, tyrannical presence suddenly appeared.

A scarlet blade light slashed toward Chen Cang's sword intent!
