Su Changge looked at Limitless Pride Heaven again and said with a smile, "Limitless Pride Heaven, you've come all this way. Are you really unwilling to fight me?"

The system had not given any completion prompt at all. This brat had directly surrendered—what about his reward?

Seeing the troubled look on Limitless Pride Heaven's face, Su Changge said again, "Let's just treat it as a sparring exchange, shall we?"

"Pride Heaven, the Divine Son has invited you twice already. If you still refuse—"

Heaven Splitting Sword Venerable's words instantly made Limitless Pride Heaven feel as though he had fallen into an ice cellar!

He knew full well how terrifying his master was!

After pondering for a moment, he ultimately agreed. A man under another's eaves had no choice but to bow his head!

This time, Su Changge and Limitless Pride Heaven came to the arena stage at the Returning Origin Martial Arts Arena.

By now, even more people from the Returning Origin Holy Land had gathered here to watch.

Other than the First Holy Son, who was as elusive as a divine dragon whose head could be seen but never its tail, all the other Holy Sons had come as well.

They had heard far too many rumors about Su Changge lately!

Nine Heavens phenomenon, Ten Purple Mansions, shattering the firmament, blasting apart Sky Peak Tower...

"So in the end, they're still going to fight."

"Yeah. Limitless Pride Heaven is the Luo River Sword Sect's First Sword Son, and his physique is the Innate Sword Body. He was born in harmony with the sword dao, and his terrifying sword dao cultivation has crushed the younger generation beneath it!"

"I wonder how this will end?"

Everyone wore excited expressions, their hearts brimming with anticipation.

In truth, Limitless Pride Heaven's cultivation had already reached the peak of the Sealed Emperor Realm. Many felt that there had to be another reason why he had voluntarily admitted defeat.

On the arena stage, the two stood facing one another.

Su Changge looked at Limitless Pride Heaven and said calmly, "You don't need to worry about so much. We sword cultivators should charge forward without hesitation."

"Since you are called Limitless Pride Heaven, then show the arrogance that name deserves."

Hearing this, Limitless Pride Heaven smiled faintly. In truth, he had not been afraid of Su Changge before—he had simply wanted to lie low!

The principle he lived by was: lie low among those who lie low, and become the king among those who lie low!

The reason he had acted so arrogantly earlier was mainly because his master had "coerced" him!

But now that things had come to this, the arrow was on the string and had to be loosed.

He might as well fight a thoroughly satisfying battle!

"Come, then!"

As Limitless Pride Heaven spoke, a terrifying aura at the peak of the Sealed Emperor Realm erupted from his body!

His Luo River Holy Sword left its sheath once more!

But this time, its might shook heaven and earth!

Terrifying sword qi ravaged this patch of heaven and earth without restraint!

Whoosh!

In an instant, cold light flashed!

A vast sword qi slashed out at once!

Like a shooting star streaking through the sky, it was so fast that no one could react in time!

Su Changge's response was not slow either.

He reacted almost instantly!

He brought together the index and middle fingers of his right hand, forming a sword hand seal.

Yin Yang Sword Qi burst from his fingertips!

Rumble!

Two entirely different streams of sword qi exploded in an instant!

The resulting Sword Qi Storm was like two ancient colossal beasts tearing into each other in a savage battle!

Limitless Pride Heaven did not dare let his guard down!

His figure shot forth like a meteor!

Midair, he changed his sword move again and raised his hand to slash another sword strike toward Su Changge!

Su Changge fully roused the Qi and Blood within him, countless auras continuously merging into his body!

He threw a punch, carrying the intent of overturning the heavens!

Boom!

Another massive explosion rang out!

A figure actually flew out from the smoke!

It was Limitless Pride Heaven, sent flying by that punch!

This scene left everyone staring blankly. In only a few breaths, the two had already exchanged several moves!

The lingering auras alone made their hearts palpitate!

"This fist technique is so terrifying too! It actually shattered my sword qi..."

Limitless Pride Heaven's face was filled with shock. He had never expected his opponent's sword dao talent to be so overbearing, nor his physical body to be so unmatched!

Terrifying sword dao paired with a terrifying physique—he was simply a monster!

"I think you live up to the name Limitless Pride Heaven. So far, you're the first person who has been able to take that punch from me."

"You truly are strong. Compared to you, Wang Kaihe cannot even be called cannon fodder."

Su Changge dusted off his robes. Battle intent filled the air around him, his white robe fluttering in the wind, making him look like an uninhibited Wine Sword Immortal!

If Wang Kaihe beneath the Yellow Springs heard that, he would probably be so furious that he rose from the dead!

He was already dead, yet he was still being dragged out and belittled again?

Limitless Pride Heaven did not choose to attack again. Instead, he began gathering spiritual qi.

The spiritual qi on the arena stage converged toward him like a whirlpool. Divine light coiled around him, and laws thundered!

In the void behind him, spiritual qi gathered and solidified!

It actually formed into an enormous iceberg!

The iceberg's frigid aura was like a world of ice descending upon them!

Limitless Pride Heaven pointed his sword toward the sky!

The iceberg suddenly exploded, and ice crystals filling the sky condensed into crystalline Ice Blades!

He gripped his sword again and pointed it forward!

Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!

Terrifying frost sword blades bloomed like snowflakes, tearing through the air toward Su Changge!

"Heavens! This is frost condensed from sword qi!"

"It's all sword qi! There must be tens of thousands of these terrifying frost sword blades!"

The frost storm shook the hearts of all who witnessed it!

With such overwhelming force, anyone would likely be pierced through by the frost!

That frigid aura alone made their entire bodies tremble!

"Now this is interesting."

Su Changge murmured. A battle fought to his heart's content was the path of the Great Dao he pursued!

He stretched one hand into the void, and the Azure Heaven Sword slowly emerged from space!

In an instant, he raised it and slashed diagonally!

Scorching sword qi was like a resplendent blazing sun falling upon the mortal world!

The massive frost storm was instantly vaporized, turning into wisps of white smoke that dissipated!

"What a terrifying sword! Even the legendary immortal swords are surely no more than this!"

Limitless Pride Heaven cried out in shock.

Yet he did not choose to give up. His sword emerged like a dragon once again!

A brilliant sword light, as though it could cleave heaven and earth in half, burst forth upon the arena stage and swept mightily toward Su Changge!

"Break!"

Su Changge's expression remained indifferent as a straight sword light thrust forth!

It looked like an ordinary strike, yet the instant it touched the river of sword light, that river shattered in an instant!

It turned into specks of starlight and scattered away!

But at that very moment, another terrifying stream of sword qi had already arrived before Su Changge!

"What a terrifying sword move!"

"Limitless Pride Heaven appeared to have slashed out one sword light, but he actually slashed out two! The second sword light almost completely overlapped with the first, so it looked like there was only one!"

"That's far too terrifying! Just how strong must his control over sword qi be to achieve such a level?!"

As though that was still far from enough, Limitless Pride Heaven erupted with power once more!

The Innate Sword Body had been activated!

An even purer sword intent permeated this patch of heaven and earth!

"Slash!"

Limitless Pride Heaven raised his hand and swung his sword again!

Then, an incomparably dazzling sword light blossomed!

With this single sword, all living beings seemed as insignificant as ants!

Terrifying sword intent surged straight into the Ninth Heaven!

This sword was like opening the gates of heaven!

"The Luo River Sword Sect's secret inheritance, Heaven Splitting Slash!"

Cries of astonishment rang out from the crowd!

Heaven Splitting Slash was the Luo River Sword Sect's immortal inheritance, said to be a sword that could slay immortals!

This sword was also Heaven Splitting Sword Venerable's ultimate move!

Once upon a time, this sword had suppressed countless genius sword cultivators throughout the North Abyss Dao Domain!

Where the sword reached, the gates of heaven had to open!
