Fashioning his finger into a sword, Zhang Ruochen channeled his Sword Comprehension. He sent those swords all out at the same time to strike Di Yi.

BANG, BANG!

The sound of explosions reverberated in succession.

Di Yi sent each of the swords flying with his white bone sword, directing them away from him in all directions.

At the same time, Zhang Ruochen once again grabbed hold of the Abyss Ancient Sword and leaped up. Coming down from high up, he unleashed streaks of long sword light to chop Di Yi’s neck.

Di Yi raised his sword to block the attack.

BOOM!

The two swords clashed.

Di Yi felt an enormous power coming from above and his body began sinking without his control.

The two of them sank into the water at the same time with a splash.

A wave surged up.

Streaks of sword Qi flew like shapeless wind blades in the water, flooding the surrounding waters.

If anyone came near, the sword Qi would instantly rip them apart.

Though Di Yi’s swordsmanship had yet to reach the realm of Heart Integrated into Sword, he was close. In addition to the strong power of the Hades Sword Skill, he was evenly matched with Zhang Ruochen.

He stood in the water, continuously changing his position as he launched attack after attack using his Hades Sword Skill. Whether he was slashing or stabbing, every attack was designed to kill.

Zhang Ruochen appeared relaxed. No matter how powerful his opponent’s attacks were, he would easily deflect it and divert his opponent’s power into the water.

“Could one’s sword technique become flawless after reaching the realm of Heart Integrated into Sword?”

Di Yi’s Heart State began faltering after ten strikes.

In his eyes, Zhang Ruochen was like an undefeatable enemy. None of his attacks managed to harm him at all.

To make things worse, he was executing Ghost Level sword technique and each strike consumed a large amount of his Genuine Qi.

With the exchange of blows earlier, he had used up almost 30% of his Genuine Qi.

“If I let this continue, I’ll lose for sure.”

He withdrew his sword technique and took a few steps before charging toward the surface of the water.

Zhang Ruochen naturally wouldn’t allow him to succeed. He yelled, “Get back here!”

Zhang Ruochen once again used his Heart of the Sword, summoning all the swords that had fallen into the water. The swords began spinning rapidly in the water, creating a giant whirlpool.

SPLASH!

A vortex appeared on the surface of the water. At first, its diameter was only about two to three meters, but it quickly became as wide as 80 meters. A loud roaring sound came from the vortex, forming a giant sound force.

Di Yi was planning to leap out of the water but was caught by the power of the vortex. It pulled him back into the center.

“Kill!”

Zhang Ruochen stabbed Di Yi as he controlled the swords, nearly a hundred of them.

It was likely that Di Yi’s body would turn into a sieve if he was pierced by that many swords.

Feeling murderous intent on all sides, Di Yi didn’t sit and wait for death. He took the initiative and charged at Zhang Ruochen, deciding that attack was the best defense.

BANG, BANG!

Innate Magic Qi enveloped his body. Di Yi never stopped swinging his sword, breaking apart the oncoming swords, and aimed directly for Zhang Ruochen.

Just as he came within 33 meters of Zhang Ruochen, the latter summoned his Abyss Ancient Sword once again and held it in his hand. He actively attacked Di Yi.

“Perfect timing!”

Di Yi roared and a flood of Saint Power spilled out of his body, forming a 33-meter-tall human shaped saint figure.

The saint figure emitted multi-colored lights, its huge eyes appearing like two flaming fireballs.

Warriors who were Saintly Beings were capable of converging Divine Souls. Their power would increase greatly with the help of their Divine Souls.

This was an advantage only they had.

The power of the Divine Soul suppressed Zhang Ruochen’s Martial Soul, making him feel a great pressure. Even the speed at which his Genuine Qi moved in his body slowed. He felt as if he couldn’t move his body.

“Break it!”

Gods Marks inscription lit up on the wall of his Qi Sea and broke through the pressure of the Divine Soul.

“Good thing I’ve summoned the Chord of Gods earlier and kept the marks of the gods, allowing me to break out of the pressure of the Divine Soul.”

Swoosh!

Zhang Ruochen didn’t show any weakness and used his Martial Soul to move the Heaven and Earth Spiritual Qi.

Like smoky fog, streaks of Spiritual Qi rushed at him and converged on the Abyss Ancient Sword.

With the power of heaven and earth aiding him, he swung his sword at Di Yi.

BOOM!

Their attacks met each other, blowing back each other with the collision.

In a flash, Zhang Ruochen raised the Abyss Ancient Sword and activated all of the inscriptions on it. He once again swung his sword at Di Yi.

BOOM!

There came another hard collision.

This time, Zhang Ruochen had the advantage and he managed to send Di Yi flying.

Di Yi didn’t try to stop in the water. He once again rushed towards the surface of the water.

BOOM!

BOOM!

With two explosions, Zhang Ruochen and Di Yi burst out of the water at nearly the same time.

“I’ve clearly headed for the surface first
