Eternal Blood Emperor-Chapter 492: Grandmaster Showdown

At this moment, Wang Ruoxie was truly in the spotlight, attracting not only Inner Sect disciples but also many Core Disciples and True Disciples, and even quite a few Saint Heirs and Saintesses.

An Inner Sect Disciple able to cause such a commotion, Wang Ruoxie was surely the foremost person in the Profound Lady Sect.

Of course, he’s probably also the first Inner Sect Disciple in the history of the Profound Lady Sect to dare engage in a life-and-death duel with a Saint Heir.

"Xu Yi, didn’t you want to have a life-and-death duel with me? Why don’t you hurry up and come out?"

At this time, Wang Ruoxie’s gaze swept over the crowd, and he slowly uttered these words.

He naturally knew that Xu Yi was already among the crowd; it was just that he hadn’t shown himself yet.

Despite Wang Ruoxie’s voice not being loud, it rolled through the space, heard clearly by millions present, and even on the surrounding peaks.

"What an arrogant guy, daring to speak to Saint Child Xu Yi like that."

"If he dares to engage in a life-and-death duel, why fear speaking a few arrogant words?"

"It seems he is very confident in his strength, believing himself to be invincible."

Everyone’s eyes focused on Wang Ruoxie, whispering among themselves.

"Humph, since you are so eager to die, I will oblige you."

A moment later, a cold snort came from the crowd, and everyone saw Xu Yi part the crowd and walk forward.

"If you want to kill me, let’s see if you have the ability."

Wang Ruoxie smirked indifferently in response.

"If it were before, maybe I wouldn’t have been certain of killing you, but now, you are doomed."

Xu Yi sneered, then a terrifying aura exploded from him, instantly enveloping the entire space.

"Celestial Venerable Realm, Saint Child Xu Yi has actually broken through to the Celestial Venerable Realm."

"Xu Yi’s cultivation speed is unbelievably fast. He only recently ascended to Saint Child and already broke through to the Celestial Venerable Realm. Even many veteran Saint Heirs may not compare to him."

Everyone was in shock, even those Saint Heirs and Saintesses looked at Xu Yi with amazement.

"This worries Junior Brother Ruoxie."

Xueyao murmured, full of concern.

"Brother Wang, I hope you won’t disappoint me."

Ying Hongyu looked at Wang Ruoxie with a flicker of something in his eyes, murmuring.

"So, it’s your trump card, your Celestial Venerable Realm cultivation."

Wang Ruoxie’s expression remained utterly calm, addressing Xu Yi with indifference.

He had already seen through that Xu Yi’s cultivation had broken through to the Celestial Venerable Realm, but for him, it didn’t matter whether Xu Yi was in the Celestial Emperor Realm or Celestial Venerable Realm, because he would not lose this battle.

"Although I just broke through to the Celestial Venerable Realm, dealing with you who’s only at the Seventh Layer of the Celestial Emperor Realm is more than enough."

Xu Yi spoke with cold, sneering eyes, feeling that with his current cultivation power, he could easily destroy the opponent with a flick of his fingers.

Not only he, but almost everyone thought so.

After all, the gap between the Celestial Venerable Realm and Celestial Emperor Realm is huge, even a Saint Heir with Ninth Layer Cultivation in the Celestial Emperor Realm might not defeat a newly advanced Inner Sect disciple in the First Layer of the Celestial Venerable Realm.

Much less Xu Yi who is a Saint Heir of the First Layer of the Celestial Venerable Realm, while Wang Ruoxie is merely an Inner Sect disciple with Seventh Layer Cultivation in the Celestial Emperor Realm, the disparity in strength between the two is worlds apart.

"Is that so? Then I shall see if your strength is as formidable as your words claim."

Wang Ruoxie snorted with a sneer, saying.

"You will see."

Xu Yi spoke coldly, then a storm of overwhelming sword intent swept from his body.

Immediately, a massive, crimson sword shadow formed behind him, surrounded by terrifying flames that twisted the surrounding space.

"It’s the Red Flame Blade Soul, who would’ve thought that Saint Child Xu Yi not only broke through to the Celestial Venerable Realm but also comprehended the Blade Soul, stepping into the realm of a Sword Dao Grandmaster."

"Wang Ruoxie is doomed. Although Saint Child Xu Yi is only of the First Layer of the Celestial Venerable Realm and just broke through, his realm is yet unstable, unable to unleash much of the true power of the Celestial Venerable Realm, however, with the Red Flame Blade Soul alone, he can easily slay his opponent."

People exclaimed repeatedly, faces full of shock.

"Interesting, Xu Yi has actually comprehended the Red Flame Blade Soul and become a true Sword Dao Grandmaster. It looks like there’s yet another contender among us Saint Heirs and Saintesses for the sect’s position."

The Golden Robed Saint Child remarked with a flicker of something in his eyes.

"Just him? He’s only just entered the Sword Soul Realm."

The Black-clothed Saint Child remarked with some disdain.

"Though he’s only newly entered the Sword Soul Realm, his strength far surpasses that of ordinary Saint Heirs and Saintesses. As for this guy called Wang Ruoxie, he’s likely doomed,"

The Long-robed Saint Child also spoke.

Even Ying Hongyu didn’t hold much hope for Wang Ruoxie now, as he was well aware that Xu Yi, having comprehended the Blade Soul, possessed strength far beyond an ordinary First Layer Celestial Venerable Realm.

"Blade Soul? Then I shall see whether your Blade Soul is powerful or my Sword Soul is sharper."

Wang Ruoxie’s eyes narrowed, and a surge of immense sword aura burst from his body.

An instant later, a giant purple sword shadow appeared behind him, lightning flickering.

"This is... the Thunder Sword Soul?"

"Unbelievable, an Inner Sect disciple with only Seventh Layer Cultivation in the Celestial Emperor Realm has actually comprehended the Sword Soul, stepping into the realm of a Swordsmanship Grandmaster."

"This is going to be interesting, one being a Sword Dao Grandmaster who comprehended the Blade Soul, the other a Swordsmanship Grandmaster who comprehended the Sword Soul. It could be said that this battle is a collision between swordsmanship and the Sword Dao."

Everyone showed astonished expressions, clearly not having expected Wang Ruoxie to also be a Swordsmanship Grandmaster who had comprehended the Sword Soul.

"Brother Wang, you’ve truly given me another big surprise."

Ying Hongyu’s gaze was on Wang Ruoxie, murmuring.

"Thunder Sword Soul!"

Xu Yi was equally shocked now, never having expected Wang Ruoxie to have comprehended the Sword Soul.

A sword cultivator who comprehended the Sword Soul is equally formidable, especially Wang Ruoxie’s Sword Soul, which is the Thunder Sword Soul, exceptionally destructive.

However, recalling that he not only comprehended the Blade Soul but also broke through to the Celestial Venerable Realm, he relaxed, feeling certain of crushing his opponent with superior cultivation.

In the astonished gazes of the crowd, the two figures charged almost simultaneously and clashed in an instant.

"Boom, boom..."

The space trembled and roared, and terrifying Sword Qi and blade intent raged wildly, centered around the two.

"The combat power of a Swordsmanship Grandmaster and a Sword Dao Grandmaster is truly terrifying."

This scene left everyone in awe; even Saint Heirs and Saintesses of the same level might not withstand such a strike.

"God-Burning Blade Technique!"

The moment their figures parted, following Xu Yi’s loud shout, a crimson blade instantly appeared in his hand, which was his Flame Blade Soul manifested.

"Heaven-Slaying Sword-Drawing Art."

Wang Ruoxie didn’t hesitate, transforming the Blood Divine Format into a Blood Sword and then slashing with it.
