Chapter 43: Breaking Through the Heavens

  The winds and clouds have made a great stir, the divine sword in the sky is shining brightly, its light is piercingly cold! The sword has not yet arrived, but that boundless aura has already come, shaking the earth which has begun to "rumble" and tremble.

  Those Juntian Sect disciples and Hu Baojun soldiers in the distance were already unable to stand, their warhorses whinnying as intense fear caused them to want to struggle free from their reins and run backward.

  A brilliant golden divine light illuminates the earth, causing everyone to dare not look straight at it.

  Everyone in the distance has already seen that Wuji's sword is getting stronger and stronger. If this sword continues like this, Tang An will undoubtedly die!

  A loud explosion!

  The dazzling golden light became the only thing in the world, completely annihilating the rolling killing sword energy around Tang An. At this moment, his meridians were all severed, and being able to stand up was already a miracle, let alone mobilizing his true yuan.

  The black killing sword, the Yuan Sword, had condensed into a black jade sword. This sword had no luster, its entire body was pitch-black, like death itself, evoking fear, confusion and helplessness.

  The black jade sword floated in mid-air, emitting a strange aura. Under this aura, the wounds on Tang An's surface began to slowly recover, at least the skin that was cut by the Wuji Sword Qi was recovering inch by inch.

  Tang An stood on the ground, grasping the black jade sword in his hand, his eyes fixed firmly. He stared at Wuji's dazzling sword light, his eyes cold and unyielding.

  At that moment, Lan Ruien was dazed and seemed to see a smile on Tang An's mouth. Lan Ruien saw the smile and felt a sudden jolt in his heart, his nerves tensed up: "Why is he smiling? Is it intentional? But... he's clearly dying!"

  Boom

  Wuji has taken his third step, heaven and earth are shaking, the third sword of the divine sword has been slashed out!

  In this world, the golden light of the divine sword was so dazzling that it eclipsed even the sun and moon... Everyone involuntarily wanted to close their eyes, for the light was too overwhelming, making it impossible for them to see anything clearly. Yet they gritted their teeth and forced themselves not to blink, for they were determined to witness the final stroke of this sword, and behold its ultimate splendor!

  They were streaming with tears from their stinging eyes, yet they opened them wide, eager to see the sword clearly.

  This scene is extremely bizarre.

  Tang An's eyes gradually changed, his pupils began to lose their vitality again, and his heart had already become completely calm. Any sword intent on the sword moves could no longer affect his heart. However, now that he held this black jade sword, he could no longer control the killing intent in his heart.

  Not frenzy, nor anger, but some are simply, without any reason, originating from the deepest source of the soul, murderous intent!

  This murderous intent is simple and pure!

  His eyes were as black as ink, with large pupils that seemed terrifying, but there was nothing in his gaze. There was nothing else in the world that could enter his eyes anymore. Because the black color in those eyes was clearly the same color as the black jade sword forged from condensed killing intent.

  Black is the color of death!

  Noble, clean and thorough!

  Tang An's afterimage of a green dragon was originally faint and elusive, but his opened eyes were cold and ruthless.

  The aura of the ancient, distant, mysterious and terrifying... all blended in the eyes of the Azure Dragon. The image of the Azure Dragon was originally an illusion, a non-existent thing, but at this moment, that Azure Dragon seemed to have come alive.

  Suddenly, two materialized beams of light shot out from its black pupils!

  "Rage..."

  The azure dragon's loud and clear metallic roar echoed across the sky, and the entire Lin'an City heard this dragon's cry!

  In the sky above the nine heavens, it has been echoing for a long time!

  Then, in the sky above Lin'an, a giant green dragon suddenly appeared!

  Baring teeth and brandishing claws!

  The azure dragon's black pupils shone like lanterns, flashing with an icy, stern light. On its forehead, a horn the color of coral had already grown out!

  This is a Triceratops!

  ……

  Inside the Tang Mansion, naturally, they also heard this dragon's roar. Xiao Xie raised his head to look up at the sky and saw a huge green dragon shadow, and suddenly became excited.

  "Green dragon, green dragon...... Little Tang is so cool. Little Mu, little Mu, come and see quickly, this dragon is bigger than before and seems to look better too. Wow... Look, it even grew horns! Didn't it not have horns originally? So strange, so strange. But this way looks better than before. I wonder if its horns will get bigger...... If they can get bigger that would be great. That would definitely be more majestic and more fun."

  Xiao Xie said, her eyes rolling around in circles, she was thinking: "If that green dragon could become real, it would be great. That way, Xiao Xie could ask Little Tang to lend it to her for a while." Just thinking about sitting on the green dragon flying over the mountains, looking at the envious gazes of the disciples below, Xiao Xie felt that it was really too cool.

  Ming Ruo Gu looked at Xiao Xie who was giggling foolishly, and couldn't help but chuckle along with her. He knew his little niece must be daydreaming again. But as he raised his head, his expression changed, and he exclaimed in shock: "What! It's actually the True Dragon Dharma Seal!"

  Ming Ruo Gu was shocked for a moment, but then he burst out laughing: "Haha... it's really too ridiculous. Zhao Yuanhao has been cultivating his whole life, and now he can only cultivate a phantom dragon. And yet, Tang An coincidentally condensed the true dragon law body! If he can find the divine dragon blood pill on the Tongtian Road, maybe he can even condense the azure dragon law body's external incarnation!"

  "Cultivation is a path where human effort only accounts for three parts, while the remaining seven parts rely on heavenly luck and blessings. Indeed, these words are not spoken in vain!"

  ……

  The rain is still falling, and it's coming down really heavily. The city of Lin'an seems to have been submerged in the water already.

  The patter of raindrops hitting the uneven ground is so jarring to the ears at this moment!

  Summer thunderstorms are always a welcome sight, as they wash away the sweltering heat and irrigate the parched soil. But this time, the rain washed away everything, leaving nothing but thick mud on the road, except for the collapsed houses.

  Tang An grasped the black jade sword in his hand, and although the corners of his mouth were dripping with blood, his entire being exuded a terrifying battle intent, an aura that was strong to the extreme!

  His aura was condensed, and even he himself didn't notice that he had already been able to converge this aura into his body! The convergence of breath, the unity of mind and soul, is something that can only be achieved at the Great Heaven Realm level!

  At this time, the sword yuan on Tang An's killing sword had completely circulated and flowed smoothly, without any discomfort! All the places that were originally blocked, at this moment, all became unobstructed. As long as he killed Wuji! As long as this sword yuan drank that divine yuan, he would thoroughly enter the Great Heaven Realm!

  At this moment, Tang An's eyes suddenly condensed, and a dazzling golden light burst forth.

  The infinite divine sword has arrived!

  Tang An's hand grasped the killing sword, and with a sudden burst of energy, it automatically flew up to meet him!

  That golden light is nothing to worry about for it!

  The golden divine sword and the black killing sword touched, and the disciples of the Quan Tian Sect in the distance had already prepared for the next intense shockwave and deafening sound. This was the final showdown between the two, and the explosion that erupted was the strongest blow from a peak Tian Jing strongman, which should have been extremely terrifying.

  The power of the Tianjing strong, they had just witnessed it. This blow was bound to be earth-shattering, and even if half of Lin'an City was completely destroyed, they wouldn't be surprised.

  But...

  Two swords crossed, yet an eerie silence!

  Because, as soon as he came into contact with it, Tang An's Kill Sword began to greedily devour all the energy on that golden divine sword!

  The black jade sword hovered in mid-air, continuously absorbing the energy of the golden divine sword. Its movements seemed extremely slow, but everyone saw that the golden divine sword's radiance dimmed in an instant. The golden sword's light grew increasingly dull, while the black jade sword's radiance became brighter and brighter!

  No, it should be said that it's getting more and more profound, making people feel more and more heart-pounding!

  That mysterious blackness, as if it's going to devour the world! Even the void around it is being torn apart by a twisted force, fragmenting into pieces!

  "Boom!"

  Suddenly a loud explosion in the air!

  The Black Jade Sword actually devoured the golden divine sword, leaving nothing behind!

  Wuji lost all his true yuan power and fell from the sky like an ordinary person.

  He fell to the ground, his face pale and incredulous as he stared at the black jade sword standing quietly in mid-air.

  "This sword... is the Heavenly Dao Killing Sword? Isn't that the supreme sword technique that destroys the divine way? How can a mortal possibly learn it?" He muttered to himself, his eyes already losing their luster.

  Suddenly, he jumped up and let out a loud roar towards the sky: "Who told me how he learned it!"

  "Haha...... haha...... So, it was indeed my fault! I was wrong! Then what's the point of me still being alive?"

  Yu Wuxie let out a loud roar, the rainwater ceaselessly pounding against his face, his facial features already twisted and distorted, his black and white hair wildly scattered behind him.

  He's gone mad after all.

  He burst out laughing, but then started crying loudly: "Thirty years... thirty years... I made one mistake and it was wrong for thirty years! Why didn't any of you ever tell me I was wrong? No, no... the ones who said I was wrong are all dead."

  "Who killed?"

  "It was me who killed! I killed! It was me who killed them!"

  "They're right, they're absolutely right! Haha......haha......"

  Wuji was both laughing and crying, having gone mad. His face was twisted in a grimace, with blood overflowing from the corners of his mouth. He stumbled to his feet, but instead of retreating, he charged towards the Tian Quan Sect disciples.

  All his disciples were watching him nervously, wondering what he was going to do.

  He suddenly stopped in his tracks.

  It stopped in front of a disciple of the Quan Tian Jiao.

  That disciple saw Wuji's crazy eyes and suddenly had an epiphany. The first thing he did was to kneel down with a "thud" and tremble with fear, knocking his head on the ground: "Young Master spare my life! Young Master spare my life!"

  Suddenly, he drew out the sword from his disciple's waist as if he had never heard of anything.

  His face turned as white as a garlic paste, and he felt that he was doomed to die. Although he also didn't know why Wuji wanted to kill him.

  But he was terrified for half a day, yet nothing happened.

  All I could hear was a hissing sound, like the sound of a high-pressure water gun.

  Then, a hot blood suddenly burst out and shot onto his face. He only felt the heat on his face, lifted his head up, but saw Wuji's body start to tilt over, then with a "thud" sound, heavily fell in front of him.

  The disciple lowered his head and his pupils suddenly contracted for a moment.

  Wuji's neck was still bleeding profusely, a bright red that had seeped into the rainwater and dyed it crimson.

  It's still warm...

  That disciple wiped a handful of blood on his face, but suddenly shuddered violently!

  He also wrote unbelievable things, and muttered to himself: "The young master, has he really taken his own life?"

  "Did the young master commit suicide?" he shouted!

  Then, he didn't know if it was because of that loud roar with blood surging up or if he was relieved to still be alive.

  In short, his face regained its color.

  ……

  Above the sky, the Black Jade Sword was still spinning and whirling around.

  Around it, massive black lightning flashed, and endless dark energy surged non-stop.

  In the midst of thunder and lightning, the black sword yuan was still crazily absorbing the golden divine yuan left behind by Wuji in the void. As it absorbed, it became even more refined, just like a true one.

  This black jade sword was originally an Energy Yuan Sword, but at this moment, it had actually become a real sword.

  Tang An held it in his hand, and he already had a real sense of touch.

  Get it, cool.

  Tang An suddenly grasped the sword tightly.

  In an instant, the black lightning swirling around it disappeared one by one, all of which were absorbed into this black jade sword. This sword, imperceptibly, actually carried a hint of thunderous destructive power!

  Tang An grasped the hilt tightly, this sword was entirely black and smooth, without any texture or carvings, even the blade edge was not visible. However, Tang An felt that this sword was somehow more spiritual than his own divine sword.

  It's no longer as simple as doing whatever one wants, and this sword has its own emotions too.

  He grasped the sword, and could clearly feel the thrill running through it!

  This is his destined heart sword!

  A sword that belongs to a swordsman for his entire life and will forever be his own!

  A sword created by oneself, tempered by oneself, and wielded by oneself!

  Tang An held his sword, unsure why, but suddenly felt a stir in his heart. His sword handle turned upside down, pointing diagonally upwards, directly at the sky!

  In an instant, everyone only heard a "clang" sound, the metallic tremolo resonated throughout the sky and earth, the wind and clouds surged, even the sky suddenly brightened for a moment, as if it had been torn open!

  At this moment, Tang An grasped the sword and felt unprecedented confidence! With a sword in hand, who among the heroes of the world would dare to compete with him?

  Tang An lowered his head and stroked the sword body, whispering: "Hehe... I've already understood your intentions. Your spirit is so high, how about I call you Po Tian?"

  The sword heard this and suddenly hummed with excitement, happily flying in a circle in the air before returning.

  Tang An grasped his sword, but slowly turned around, the blade slowly aiming at the main gate of the Tang Mansion.

  "He's already defeated, why don't you let go!"
