Ask All Sword Cultivators Under Heaven: Who Can Block My Sword?

Ji Changfeng held Dragon Slayer in his hand.

His calm gaze rested on the Cold Girl before him, and a trace of heartache could not help but surface in his eyes...

Sigh...

Nai Qi was good in every way, except she was far too stubborn.

Lu Xueqi noticed the heartache in Ji Changfeng's eyes.

For some reason, her heart suddenly ached, and she silently tightened her grip on the Heavenly Ya Sword.

Hmph!

I don't need your pity!

Didn't you want to avenge your senior sister?

Then come!

"Phew..."

Lu Xueqi softly exhaled.

Holding Tianya Sword, she gradually rose into the air.

Gales swept across the Nine Heavens, sending her hair flying and her skirts fluttering.

She calmly gazed at the sky. Her exquisite face was frosty, her eyes unusually clear. No matter how fiercely the wind blew, she refused to retreat even half a step...

Lu Xueqi was precisely such an extraordinary woman.

Beauty, strength, stubbornness, and aloofness all gathered within her.

If she lacked even the slightest bit of any of them...

She would not be Lu Xueqi.

Ji Changfeng quietly watched everything before him.

He did not make a move.

Instead, he stood where he was, admiring the beautiful sight.

Whoosh—

As sword light flashed, the winds and clouds of heaven and earth shifted!

Lu Xueqi slowly raised her head.

She lifted her snow-white neck and looked toward the heavens.

For a moment, the wind suddenly stopped.

Heaven and earth seemed to fall silent at that instant.

Rumble—

A deep, surging roar descended from the sky.

It echoed throughout the entire world.

Clang—

A clear Sword Cry rang out.

Lu Xueqi gripped the Heavenly Ya Divine Sword in reverse.

Brilliant azure light emerged, illuminating Lu Xueqi's body. Her skirts billowed, and her hair drifted in the wind.

Lu Xueqi's face was like frost as she formed a Sword Technique with her fingers. Stepping upon the positions of the Seven Stars, she took seven consecutive steps through the air before suddenly raising the divine sword toward the heavens.

In an instant, her flawless jade-like face turned utterly pale.

Not a trace of color remained.

She had exhausted all her spiritual power for the sake of unleashing this sword.

"Nine Heavens Mysterious Calamity, become divine lightning; Majestic Heavenly Might, drawn forth by this sword!"

Her cold voice resounded throughout heaven and earth.

In an instant, the world lost its color.

Rumble—

Deafening thunder exploded above the heavens.

Dark clouds gathered together one after another.

Black clouds pressed down upon the city, threatening to crush it!

For a moment, violent winds howled.

At this sight.

Everyone around the arena paled in shock.

"Divine Sword Thunder True Art? She..."

"She actually used the Divine Sword Thunder True Art?!"

An anxious expression appeared on the Arena Guardian Elder's face.

What was going on here?!

It had been a perfectly ordinary match.

How had it turned into a battle of life and death?

And now they had even brought out the Divine Sword Thunder True Art?!

Zhang Xiaofan stared blankly at the commotion caused by the Divine Sword Thunder True Art.

His lips moved slightly.

Then he silently lowered his head.

That night five years ago had been no different from this...

On the high platform.

The expressions of several Peak Masters changed.

Panic even appeared on Master Shuiyue's beautiful face.

"Qi'er..."

She knew very well that with Lu Xueqi's current cultivation, she could at most barely grasp the Divine Sword Thunder True Art. To truly cast it...

Would be difficult.

Tian Buyi's expression was somewhat grave.

Yet, considering Ji Changfeng's strength, he ultimately said nothing.

"Senior Sister, trust Changfeng." Su Ru gently held Master Shuiyue's jade-like hand and softly comforted her.

"Mm..." Master Shuiyue silently nodded.

She looked worriedly at Lu Xueqi's figure. Now, she could only place her hopes on Ji Changfeng.

Hopefully, Changfeng...

Could handle it.

Tianyun Daoist, Zeng Shuchang, and Shang Zhengliang were completely dumbfounded.

Was this really the Seven Meridians Martial Arts Tournament?

Were disciples at this stage really this fierce?

They could even use the Divine Sword Thunder True Art?!

The three of them turned to look at Dao Xuan and the others.

They found that they too wore astonished expressions.

True Master Daoxuan gently stroked his beard.

He looked at Lu Xueqi in surprise. He had not expected this female disciple of Xiaozhu Peak to be able to use the Divine Sword Thunder True Art at the Jade Purity Ninth Layer?!

One had to know that this extraordinary art, the Divine Sword Thunder True Art, was not easy to cast even with cultivation in the Supreme Purity Realm...

True Master Daoxuan looked over.

Lu Xueqi's face was deathly pale. It seemed that her heart was willing, but her strength was lacking.

True Master Daoxuan lightly shook his head.

Still, he was not overly worried about the female disciple's safety.

After all, Ji Changfeng was standing right below her.

Didn't that brat have his eye on this girl?

Hehe, this was the perfect chance for a hero to save the beauty.

True Master Daoxuan secretly chuckled.

On the arena.

Blood continuously seeped from the corner of Lu Xueqi's mouth.

Though she appeared imposing at the moment, in truth...

The pressure on her was immense!

Surging pressure constantly descended from the heavens, causing the blood and energy within her body to churn and her meridians to tremble violently.

There was barely any spiritual power left in her body.

Next, she would most likely be unable to maintain the Divine Sword Thunder True Art.

Rumble rumble—

Deafening thunder continuously rang out from the heavens.

Lu Xueqi bit her lips unwillingly.

She stood alone amidst wind and lightning, her body swaying on the verge of collapse, her face exceptionally pale.

Looking over.

A trace of sorrow inexplicably appeared in the Cold Girl's eyes. Before the endless pressure of heaven and earth, she seemed so small...

Rumble rumble!

Lightning continued to gather.

A boundless backlash was faintly about to descend.

Pfft—

Lu Xueqi spat out blood.

Her skirts fluttered and her hair flew wildly. A feeling of helplessness washed over her. She...

Ultimately could not cast this extraordinary art.

Lu Xueqi looked downward. That figure below was still as tall and straight as ever. He calmly watched the lightning above the Nine Heavens, the divine sword in his hand faintly poised to strike...

Whoosh—

Lu Xueqi could no longer hold on.

She gently bit her lips, but ultimately released Tianya Sword weakly. Her slender body fell from the Nine Heavens like a fairy descending into the mortal world.

"Qi'er!" Master Shuiyue's expression changed.

She hurriedly tried to move to save her.

But at that moment...

A figure was faster than her.

Whoosh—

Ji Changfeng took a light step.

Like a sharp sword, he instantly shot into the clouds and swept that slender, delicate body into his embrace.

He lowered his head slightly.

The Cold Girl in his arms was deathly pale, making one's heart ache for her. Her lips were bloodless, and sorrow glimmered at the corners of her eyes.

"Senior Sister Lu."

"Is winning or losing really that important?"

Just as Lu Xueqi was about to lose consciousness, a soft chuckle suddenly sounded beside her ear.

Lu Xueqi barely opened her eyes.

She found herself already in a warm embrace.

A faint smile rested on the lips of the high-spirited youth. He seemed not to regard the lightning above the Nine Heavens as anything worth noticing.

What did he just... call me?

Lu Xueqi froze inwardly.

She blankly looked at Ji Changfeng before her. Her weak, delicate body lay securely in his arms, and everything in her heart gradually fell silent.

As though within his embrace...

Nothing could happen to her.

Ji Changfeng took out a Great Yellow Pill and brought it to Lu Xueqi's lips. Then he said gently:

"Senior Sister, open your mouth~"

Lu Xueqi opened her mouth instinctively.

In an instant, the pill melted as soon as it entered her mouth.

Its immense medicinal power flowed into her body and continuously spread through her meridians, warming her heart...

Lu Xueqi stared blankly at Ji Changfeng.

At this moment.

He was the only person in her eyes.

Whoosh—

A clear Sword Cry rang out.

With one arm holding the beauty in his embrace, Ji Changfeng summoned Dragon Slayer with the other.

He looked up at the sky.

His expression did not change in the slightest as he gazed at the endless lightning above.

Even before the boundless might of heaven and earth.

He seemed so small.

But...

So what?

"I have a sword!"

"One that can annihilate all enemies!"

As soon as he finished speaking, Ji Changfeng gripped Dragon Slayer and took a step forward.

In an instant.

He was already high in the heavens, holding the beauty in his arms.

Under everyone's watchful gaze.

Ji Changfeng slowly raised Dragon Slayer in his hand.

Sharp Sword Intent gleamed in his eyes. He stood proud and spirited, staring straight into the nine heavens.

"Rumble—"

A deafening peal of thunder rolled through the air.

The next moment, a fierce bolt of lightning descended, carrying immense heavenly and earthly power.

As though it intended to tear Ji Changfeng below to pieces.

For a moment, everyone could not help but close their eyes.

"Whoosh—"

But just then, a dazzling flash of sword light streaked forth.

Ji Changfeng raised his sword and slashed.

A massive Sword Qi burst from his blade, cleaving toward the lightning above.

That sword light was utterly brilliant.

It was so dazzling.

As if...

There was only this one sword between heaven and earth!

There was only this one sword in everyone's hearts!

"Whoosh—"

As the sword light appeared, a clear, resounding voice echoed in everyone's ears:

"Among all Sword Cultivators under heaven, who can withstand a single strike from my sword?!"

As soon as the words fell.

The Sword Qi shattered the lightning.

And split open the clouds!

Above the nine heavens.

Only a figure in white stood tall.

The beauty in his arms widened her eyes, staring blankly at the high-spirited young man before her.
