Chapter 19: The Eighth Sword

  Zi Lei Nine Swords, the last sword "Purple Cloud Divine Extinguishing", this sword infused all of Xie Shi Yi's inner energy and his understanding of the intent of the sword.

  The sword, carrying infinite power, rushes towards Tang An!

  This sword, Tang An could no longer see the purple glow of the sword because his field of vision was completely covered by a sheet of purple lightning. The shadow of this thunder had an aura of destroying everything. Tang An did not dare to meet it head-on, absolutely did not dare!

  If you drink it, you'll die!

  Xie Shi Yi knew his chance had finally come. The accumulated power of the previous eight swords was fully unleashed at this moment!

  He has been waiting for this sword for a long time, and it is currently his strongest move! He is so confident that even the famous Xiaoxiao cannot withstand this sword.

  Under the heavenly realm, no one can catch up!

  And this sword's speed, skill and power have all reached the pinnacle. At Xie Shi Yi's age, being able to achieve this is already impeccable, no matter who it is. Even Yuan Wanli was stunned when he saw this sword. But he only froze for an instant, then widened his eyes, looking at the scene with incredulity!

  This sword's speed was really too fast, Tang An thought of dodging but couldn't dodge it. Xie Shi Yi had no regrets as the successor of the divine sword, this one sword he calculated everything, making Tang An have to forcibly receive it. But receiving it with force, Tang An definitely wouldn't be able to withstand it!

  Can't dodge!

  No matter how agile Tang An's movements were, there was an attack that he couldn't dodge. Just then, Tang An made a bold decision and suddenly activated the golden true energy hidden in his body's three major acupoints.

  "Qīng Lóng Jìng!" -> "The Green Dragon is Powerful!"

  This green dragon's vigor is extremely strange and cannot be compared to ordinary internal energy in terms of quality, the gap is too big! However, this true energy is extremely scarce, currently only a little bit flows out from the acupoints. Tang An had thought of using it as a last resort, unfortunately, if he doesn't use it now, he won't even make it to the final match.

  A faint golden aura instantly infused the long sword in his hand, condensing into frost and snow, emitting a chilling air! The sword's light was cold and desolate, illuminating the black armor of over a thousand tiger-like warriors surrounding him.

  Cold light shines on iron clothes!!

  A surge of violent killing intent suddenly rose up in Tang An's heart!

  "He wants to kill me!"

  "No! He's not trying to kill me. We're just sparring!"

  "No, he really wants to kill me! If he didn't want to kill me, why would he use this sword?! He can't even control the sword's technique!"

  "But why does he want to kill me? We are friends!!!"

  His killing intent soared to the sky, and in an instant, his rationality was completely overwhelmed! Suddenly, the moves and meaning of the Seven Kills Sword Style flashed through Tang An's mind one by one.

  This sword technique was incredibly exquisite, even Tang An couldn't understand how it could have such power. It seemed that the technique itself was alive, and he was just a wooden puppet used to express this killing intent.

  The world is originally desolate and stern, human beings are really too insignificant!

  Tang An was still immersed in the endless killing intent in his heart, but at this moment, Xie Shi Yi's sword had arrived!

  A purple lightning bolt, mixed with the power of a thousand tons, is coming towards Tang An!

  Just then, the frost in Tang An's hand also moved.

  Frost congeals into snow, already reaching the blue sky! The nine heavens' divine light is extinguished, thunder and lightning are in a state of chaos!

  Tang An's eyes suddenly burst open!

  His eyes no longer held human emotions, but were filled with blood color, and violent fresh blood flooded his pair of eyes. Even the black eyeballs seemed to have been transformed by the extremely thick blood.

  His eyes have already become a hell of Asura!

  What's in your hand?

  It's a sword!

  What sword?

  Murderous Sword!

  A surge of golden true energy burst out from the Azure Dragon's body, spreading throughout Tang An's entire being in an instant. At this moment, he felt his whole body filled with explosive energy.

  His chest was filled with an endless killing intent that wanted to burst out, and he couldn't stop it no matter what!

  "A man should kill for fame, fame is exchanged for turbid wine, turbid wine meets the heavenly pass, outside the pass are fifty states, each state a cuckoo weeps blood!"

  "Kirioroshi: Eighth Style!"

  Tang An's long sword shot out, meeting Xie Shi Yi!

  "He suddenly shouted loudly: 'Why doesn't a man wear a Wu hook and take in the fifty states of Guan Shan!!'"

  In an instant, a violent golden true energy burst out. On the Frost Sword, a wave of golden flames that were extremely fierce and violent suddenly appeared!

  Flames are surging!

  It's infuriating!

  It's murderous intent!

  The flames carried a momentum that destroyed everything, rushing straight towards Xie Shi Yi, as if to completely engulf him, leaving not even his bones behind!

  "Boom!"

  Two sword auras collided, like meteors crashing onto the earth's surface, instantly stirring up an enormous storm. The storm seemed to be blowing everyone away! The crowd below couldn't open their eyes. In the instant when the two swords intersected, the radiance that burst forth was something no one dared to gaze at directly!

  Kill! Destroy!

  Death!

  Who dares to confront?

  Golden true energy soared into the sky, and in an instant, it suppressed Xie Shi Yi's purple sword light!

  Just then, Tang An's hands suddenly grasped the sword, he wanted to take it back! Because at that moment, he regained a bit of clarity.

  "He can't die... He's... my friend..."

  But that fierce and brutal killing intent had already penetrated deep into his bones, and Tang An could only barely hold on.

  Xie Shi Yi has already lost.

  Zi Lei's Nine Swords, in the face of this eighth move of the Killing Sword, only symbolically resisted for a while before retreating. He had not truly grasped the essence of the Purple Lightning Divine Annihilation Way!

  A glimmer of regret flashed in Xie Shi's eyes, but in an instant, a smile began to spread across his face. Though he had lost with honor, he finally understood the path he was on! This road may be thorny, but as long as he persevered and never doubted himself, there would come a moment when he would burst through the thorns!

  "There are still fresh flowers on the tomb, and I seem to have smelled that refreshing fragrance already..."

  Seeing this smile, Tang An suddenly froze, he sobered up! His two hands grasped the sword at the same time and pulled it back fiercely, but the sword in his hand seemed to come alive, still desperately rushing forward.

  At this moment of pulling and rushing, Tang An's strength changed four times.

  Finally...

  Boom!

  Xie Shi's legacy was blown away, and the sword also fell out of Tang An's hands!

  Tang An stood still on the spot, while Xie Shi's body slid for over ten meters before finally coming to a stop.

  The Frost Sword suddenly left Tang An's hand and floated eerily in mid-air...

  "Ding"

  The treasured sword lost its master and fell to the ground in an instant, yet it still hummed with a lingering resonance, as if unwilling to accept its fate.

  A sword is for killing people, if it doesn't kill people, then it's not satisfying!

  “Cough, cough…” Xie Shi Yu suddenly let out two coughs, and bright red blood flowed from the corner of his mouth. He clutched at his chest, his face as pale as gold paper, utterly defeated. At this moment, his internal energy was in complete disarray; with even the slightest movement, the meridians would throb with pain. This injury wouldn’t heal within half a year, and even if it did, he wouldn’t be able to recover his original strength without several years of recuperation.

  Is it just a matter of time before he catches up? He has already been left behind by Ming Xiao and Tang An, and in a few more years, I'm afraid he will never be able to catch up with their footsteps.

  Yue Wu on the high platform and Yuan Wanli below both saw that Xie Shiyu's body had suffered internal injuries, and his mental state was also unstable. They were worried about him. However, although Xie Shiyu's condition was poor, his eyes still shone brightly. That bright light was enough to prove that his heart was not dead.

  Failure is not terrible, what's terrible is losing heart. As long as you haven't lost heart, there will be a day when he can find himself again.

  Seeing the flickering light, Yue Wu nodded slightly and smiled, while Yuan Wanli also let out a sigh of relief.

  The entire school saw this scene, first a silence, they were all shocked by this intense fight.

  But immediately, a loud noise burst out on the campus. The noise was chaotic at first, but suddenly someone shouted: "Why not take Wu Hook and capture fifty states of Guan Shan?"

  This sentence instantly ignited the heroic spirit of the three thousand Tiger Guards in the field. Before long, this remark echoed throughout the entire campus, and even villages several miles away heard it.

  In the village, a young child heard it and recited several sentences, then remembered. He raised his head to see his mother and innocently said: "Why doesn't the boy wear a Wu hook, take over the 50 states of Guan Shan? Mother, I am also a boy, when I grow up, I will also wear a Wu hook, can you buy me a Wu hook?"

  She listened, but suddenly froze, and her eyes instantly welled up with tears. She hastily wiped them away with her sleeve, turned back to her son, forced a faint smile, nodded, and said: "Good. When you grow up, follow your father's example and join the army, guard the borders for the country, and become a high-ranking official in the future. Your father will be delighted even after he passes away."
