"It's the Sword Daoist!!"
The expressions of the three sword Dao sky-prides, who were just about to fight, changed upon seeing the Sword Daoist's arrival.
Although they were top-notch sky-prides, there was still a gap in combat strength between them and an outlaw sky-pride like Sword Daoist.
"I didn't think that guy would be interested too."
"Now, this is a little troublesome."
The sword Dao sky-prides looked at the Sword Daoist with fear.
On the other hand, the Sword Daoist looked at Wang Xu and the others apathetically, as if he was looking at a mere few ants.
"This Primitive Elite Swordgrass is mine."
The Sword Daoist uttered.
He spoke in a manner as if those sword Dao sky-prides were nothing to him.
Realistically speaking, he had no reason to take the other sword Dao sky-prides seriously. After all, he was one of the most outstanding sky-prides in the Emperor Road who possessed the Exquisite Nine Orifices Sword Heart.
"Sword Daoist, aren't you being a bit tyrannical? This Primitive Elite Swordgrass doesn't belong to you just because you said so."
Qin Feng could not resist asking.
Upon hearing that, the Sword Daoist gathered sword qi on his fingers and unleashed it towards him.
A golden streak of sword qi that carried a chilling Sword-based Daoist Rhyme instantly locked onto Qin Feng!
Qin Feng's pupils shrank. With a low cry, he unleashed a strike in return. However, he was forcefully pushed back by that attack, and his hand that was gripping the sword could not stop trembling from the bleeding crack between his thumb and index finger.
"You can't even hold your own against a single attack from me, yet you still have the nerve to complain?"
The Sword Daoist replied as surges of sword qi swirled around him, which made him look like a sword deity.
Having entered the Enchanted Forest Realm with Sword Daoist, Jian Changfeng was secretly stunned by what happened.
'Just a mere clone of his already possesses such power! This Sword Daoist is indeed an outlaw sky-pride. He's terrifying!'
'In terms of sword Dao, perhaps my Master is the only one who can overpower him.'
"Sword Daoist, if my clan brother is here, he'll never allow you to behave in such a tyrannical manner!"
Qin Feng knew he was no match for the Sword Daoist, so he brought up the name of the Qin clan's outlaw sky-pride in hopes of salvaging his crumbling reputation.
A hint of surprise flashed across the Sword Daoist's eyes. "I suppose you're referring to Qin Tianchen? Has he not come to the Enchanted Forest Realm as well?"
"Hmph. I'll have you know, my clan brother is currently in closed-door meditation. If it weren't for that, do you think you'd be able to flaunt your power here?"
"Since Qin Tianchen is not here, how did you get the courage to speak to me like that?"
The Sword Daoist snorted before raising his hand and unleashed another sword technique.
Surges of sword qi swept outward like a storm!
Enveloped within the storm, Qin Feng yelled and frantically swung his sword, continuously releasing streaks of sword qi to resist the storm. However, his efforts were futile.
The sword qi inside the storm soon grew denser and stronger.
Eventually, countless streaks of sword qi closed in on Qin Feng as large amounts of sword qi appeared on his body.
A few moments after that, there were a dozen deep cuts all over Qin Feng's body, and he fell onto the ground, bleeding profusely.
The scene made the surrounding sword cultivators look at the Sword Daoist with awe in their eyes.
He could critically injure a top-notch sky-pride just like that. Such a display of combat strength truly lived up to the name of an outlaw sky-pride.
"D*mn it…"
Qin Feng raised his hand as he looked at the Sword Daoist with fear in his eyes. He did not expect the difference in their strengths to be so great!
The outlaw sky-prides and ordinary sky-prides were truly on two different levels of existence.
"For Qin Tianchen's sake, I shall let you live."
The Sword Daoist glanced at Qin Feng and said.
Following that, his cold gaze soon swept across everyone around. "Does anyone else wish to obtain this Primitive Elite Swordgrass?"
No one dared to respond.
The Sword Daoist's display of strength had greatly shocked everyone at the scene.
"The Exquisite Nine Orifices Sword Heart really does enhance the sword Dao abilities by a lot. If he can overpower any sword cultivator, we're definitely no match for him."
"As long as we're sword cultivators, our strength will naturally be overpowered by the Sword Daoist's presence."
"Sigh. Apart from the outlaw sky-prides, the Sword Daoist's strength is unmatched among the younger generation. If he manages to obtain this Primitive Elite Swordgrass, there's no telling how powerful he'll eventually become. He might have a great chance of becoming an Emperor in this epoch."
Everyone secretly thought.
The Sword Daoist had overpowered every single sky-pride in the whole of Emperor Road with his strength.
After looking around and noticing that no one dared to go against him, the Sword Daoist shifted his gaze towards the Primitive Elite Swordgrass nearby.
That Supreme Elixir would greatly benefit him, especially his clone.
He knew that this body of his was only a clone, which meant that it could not activate the full strength of the Exquisite Nine Orifices Sword Heart. If he could manage to refine the Primitive Elite Swordgrass, this clone of his would possess the Primitive Elite Sword Physique. Adding that to the power of the Daoist Rhyme from the Exquisite Nine Orifices Sword Heart, the combat strength of this clone would be on par with his real self.
Upon thinking of this, the Sword Daoist delightfully reached out to grab the Primitive Elite Swordgrass.
"I'm afraid I can't allow you to touch it."
At this moment, a laid-back voice came from the void.
Following that, an incredibly powerful aura — more terrifying than the Sword Daoist's — immediately enveloped the whole area!!
Under the might of that aura, each swordsman's sword uncontrollably broke free from its grasps. All the swords levitated densely in the air, as if they were welcoming the presence of the overlord of swords!!
"This surge of aura, can it be…"
Seemingly recalling something, the Sword Daoist's deep gaze shifted into the distance.
Everyone else, too, looked towards the source of that aura.
All they saw was a white-robed young man with black hair slowly approaching under the swords' respectful welcome.
The person who arrived had a handsome appearance and otherworldly air about him.
/strong>
The Sword Daoist snorted when he saw the person. "How dare you use swordsmanship before the likes of me! Do you know who you're messing with?!"
The Sword-based Daoist Rhyme that erupted from his body instantly enveloped the surrounding area, attempting to seize control over the swords that were levitating in the air around Chu Kuangren.
However, no matter how much Daoist Rhyme he cast, the levitating swords around Chu Kuangren did not budge at all!
Everyone gulped.
"The Sword Daoist has been overpowered by someone else in terms of sword Dao?!"
"By the heavens, who the h*ll is that person? How does he have such a powerful sword Dao?"
"This is unbelievable…"
Everyone knew that the Exquisite Nine Orifices Sword Heart was the best Daoist Physique in terms of sword Dao. Hence, as one who had that physique and a strong brought-up from the Sword Tribe, Sword Daoist's level of cultivation in terms of sword Dao should be unmatched.
Even the older generation of sword cultivators would find it hard to suppress him with their strength.
However, that commonly known worldview was just shattered by Chu Kuangren!
Even among the younger generation, the Sword Daoist was not invincible in sword Dao cultivation!
Now, there was someone else who was even more skilled than him!
"Master…"
Looking at Chu Kuangren, whose arrival was welcomed by countless levitating swords, Jian Changfeng could not help but look at him with strong admiration.
However, he managed to hide that expression in time.
Since the Sword Daoist's attention was on Chu Kuangren, he did not notice Jian Changfeng's weird behavior.
"I can't believe this guy's Sword-based Daoist Rhyme has reached such a terrifying level." The Sword Daoist looked at Chu Kuangren sternly.
He was well aware that Chu Kuangren possessed the Exquisite Nine Orifices Sword Heart. Even so, there should be a difference in strength between two fellow users of the same Supreme Daoist Physique. After all, he had the Sword Tribe's strong support and guidance, with limitless amounts of resources at his disposal at any moment. So how could a sky-pride from the outside world possibly be a match for him despite possessing the same Exquisite Nine Orifices Sword Heart as he did?
That was why he had not paid attention to Chu Kuangren all this while.
However, he had no choice but to face Chu Kuangren now.
"Hold up. Is this all your Exquisite Nine Orifices Sword Heart can do? Or is it this clone body of yours that's limiting you from exerting your full strength?"
Chu Kuangren looked at the Sword Daoist with a playful expression.
The Sword Daoist was shocked. Chu Kuangren had revealed the fact that he was a clone in just those few words!
