Chapter 1084 The Sword of Destiny Wins
"Who is that? Only at the Golden Core stage, and dares to be so arrogant? Didn't you see Junior Brother Hua, who just reached the late Yuanying stage, was defeated in one move?"
"Disciple Ji Zhaoxuan from the inner sect! Usually silent and unremarkable. I didn't expect him to stand up at this time!"
"Good! He is indeed a disciple of our Tianjian Sect. Although he knows he is not the opponent, he still dares to wield his sword! With just this, he is the best among the inner sect disciples!"
The disciples of the Tianjian Sect were discussing, with some being disdainful, some admiring, and some worshiping.
However, Li Fan ignored the voices around him and only stared directly at Mr. Bai, "Mr.'s strength is definitely far superior to mine. But in terms of understanding the way of the sword, I'm afraid Mr. may not be better than me."
Li Fan was full of confidence, but Mr. Bai just smiled faintly and did not refute.
"So for today's competition, we only compare who is better in the way of the sword, not the strength difference!"
This statement stunned everyone present.
"Are they going to maintain their cultivation at the Golden Core stage for the competition?"
"Can they do that?"
"Outrageous!"
"But I think it's not unacceptable. After all, this guest's cultivation is unfathomable. If he really exerts his full strength, I'm afraid only Senior Brother can defeat him."
In the face of Li Fan's somewhat rude request, Mr. Bai did not mind. He nodded and said with a smile, "Rest assured, I never bully the weak."
With that, the mysterious aura that originally emanated from him suddenly calmed down, and he also only had the cultivation of the late Golden Core stage, just like Ji Zhaoxuan possessed by Li Fan.
Li Fan clasped his hands and looked solemn, "In that case..."
"Watch the sword!"
Even before the words "watch the sword" were spoken, Li Fan had already made his move.
When the onlookers heard Li Fan's explosive shout, a phantom of a huge sword had already descended from the sky.
The giant sword, surrounded by countless different divine swords, appeared like a king of swords, attracting countless sword auras intertwined with radiance.
All the Tianjian Sect disciples, at the moment the giant sword appeared, couldn't control their own swords. They flew out one after another, floating in the air, humming lightly as if paying homage.
Even the entire Tianjian Sect seemed to be slightly trembling.
As if something deep inside the Tianjian Sect was awakening.
This earth-shattering scene immediately caught the attention of all the cultivators in the Tianjian Sect.
Countless figures rushed over.
And a cultivator holding a gourd of wine, slightly drunk, arrived on the scene, causing everyone to exclaim in unison, "It's Senior Brother?!"
"Senior Brother is here!"
At this moment, Situ Yao, who was usually indifferent, looked solemn and watched Li Fan and Mr. Bai who were competing.
The changes outside the battle seemed to have no effect on the two of them.
In the midst of the storm of swords, a hint of surprise flashed in Mr. Bai's eyes.
Because he realized that his wooden sword had suddenly become much lighter.
As if...
The sword intent gathered on the wooden sword had transferred to the other person in an instant!
"But Mr. Bai is the incarnation of the Xuanhuang Way, this false mistake of the Way can only be used once."
"So there is only one chance!"
Li Fan's heart was unusually calm.
Under his control, the giant sword and countless other swords manifested around it, suddenly appeared like a torrential rain.
Countless sharp swords tore through the space, forming a terrifying storm that swept through the area.
All the onlookers in the area paled and dodged backwards.
But many Yuanying and even Nascent Soul cultivators were unable to control their movements amidst this sudden storm of swords.
Not to mention the disciples with lower cultivation levels.
"This is something that can be done at the Golden Core stage?"
"Could it be that Ji Zhaoxuan has been hiding his cultivation all along?"
"Monsters, today I have the honor to witness a battle between two monsters!"
The raging sword energy obscured the vision of most people.
But those who were accomplished in the Dao, and the strong ones above that, were still staring intently at the center of the storm.
At this moment, they were all shocked to see that, in the face of this devastating move, Mr. Bai did not dodge or hide.
Any number of swords struck him, but strangely, none of the swords caused him any harm.
Instead, they disappeared silently, as if they had never existed.
Only Mr. Bai's wooden sword seemed to come back to life.
The storm of a thousand swords seemed endless and showed no signs of abating. However, Li Fan had quietly disappeared within the storm.
Mr. Bai did not intend to retaliate. He just stood quietly at the center of the storm.
"The Sword of Xuanhuang..."
"I did not expect someone in the world to master it to such an extent. Impressive!"
Mr. Bai sincerely praised.
"However, with just this, you cannot defeat me."
Mr. Bai's words reverberated in the storm of a thousand swords.
His eyes wandered through the storm, trying to locate Li Fan.
But at this moment, Li Fan had already transformed into a sword, blending into the multitude of sword paths. Even Mr. Bai, as the incarnation of the Xuanhuang Way, couldn't find him for a while.
The storm of a thousand swords finally reached its most violent moment before it subsided.
At the moment when countless sword lights bloomed together, a seemingly ordinary wooden sword hid within them.
It quietly flew towards Mr. Bai, resolute and unstoppable!
At first, it was just like an ordinary sword technique.
But as the speed of the wooden sword increased, its momentum became stronger.
Like a raging fire spreading across the sky, or like a shooting star illuminating the darkness.
Compared to this, all the other swords in the storm seemed dull and powerless.
"This is..." Situ Yao and all the elders of the Tianjian Sect who were watching were filled with shock and regret.
Because this was the strongest sword technique activated with one's own life.
It was also the final sword technique.
The Sword of Destiny!
Naturally, Mr. Bai also saw the essence of this sword.
He couldn't help but hesitate.
After all, it was just a competition, and it was not necessary to risk the young man's life for victory.
And...
The young man's understanding of the sword was indeed rare in the world. It was not inferior to his own.
At this critical moment, every additional talent was good for the Xuanhuang Realm. It was a pity to die in vain.
In an instant of thought, Mr. Bai had made a decision.
"I concede."
As soon as he said that, he released his cultivation restriction.
He used the power of the Longevity Realm to forcibly reverse the process of Li Fan burning his life.
However...
Li Fan had no intention of stopping at all.
Even though his sword momentum had dissipated, his speed remained undiminished.
In the end, the wooden sword in his hand gently stabbed Mr. Bai.
