Chapter 783: Duel of Pinnacles


Translator: jinzeffect


“The Heart Sword Sovereign is 4th rank and Li Jianxin is 3rd rank. The 1st and 2nd rank are finally going to be decided.”


“It feels so exciting, my body can’t stop shaking.”


“Who isn’t excited? This is a pinnacle duel of the sword dao circle. A duel that is close to the duel between the Sword Emperor and the Sword Sovereign.”


“In my opinion, this match might not be inferior to the match between the Sword Emperor and the Sword Sovereign.”


There were only a few matches left in the tournament. Everyone was looking forward to the match between the Emotionless Sword Emperor and Li Fuchen.


“Mystic Deep Sword Saint, who do you think will win?”


The Tiger Fang Sword Saint felt that the Emotionless Sword Emperor’s chances were higher. After all, the Emotionless Sword Emperor was able to immediately neutralize the Skyline Sword Art’s third move. Li Fuchen was only able to suppress the Skyline Sword Art’s third move.


The Mystic Deep Sword Saint said, “On surface, the Emotionless Sword Emperor is naturally superior. But there are times when things on the surface are the most deceiving.”


“What do you mean?” The Hundred Flower Sword Saint was curious.


“Do both of you remember Li Fuchen’s expression when Li Jianxin executed the fourth move?” The Mystic Deep Sword Saint asked.


The Tiger Fang Sword Saint and Hundred Flower Sword Saint recalled for a moment. Suddenly, they revealed shocked expressions.


As saints, it was easy for them to memorize anything they took a glance at. They could reenact a scene they saw before. Right now, their minds could already see Li Fuchen’s face.


Apart from confidence and a trace of surprise, there wasn’t any fear on Li Fuchen’s face.


It also meant that even if Li Jianxin executed the fourth move of the Skyline Sword Art, Li Fuchen had the capability to resist.


“It can’t be!” The Tiger Fang Sword Saint didn’t believe it.


“It also means that Li Fuchen is still hiding a part of his strength.” The Hundred Flower Sword Saint gave the answer.


The Mystic Deep Sword Saint nodded. “That should be right. We shall now see how much strength did Li Fuchen hide and how much strength did the Emotionless Sword Emperor used to deal with Li Jianxin. Therefore, it is hard for us to determine which of them will win now.”


The matches continued and the referee still didn’t call out for the match between Li Fuchen and the Emotionless Sword Emperor.


Finally, when the tournament was only left with one match, the referee’s voice echoed, “Ning Que against Li Fuchen.”


Right now, the nine martial stages joined into one stage. The edges were as long as 3000 meters.


“It is about to start.”


The audiences held their breaths.


Two figures landed on the martial stage at the same time.


“Your sword is very fast.” Li Fuchen stated.


“Have you used your full strength earlier?” The Emotionless Sword Emperor asked.


Li Fuchen laughed, “You didn’t either.”


“That’s good then.” The Emotionless Sword Emperor nodded.


If Li Fuchen had already used his full strength, then this match would be meaningless as the outcome was obvious.


“What? Both of them have yet to use their full strength?”


The duo’s voices weren’t loud, but everyone heard them clearly and were stupefied.


Li Jianxin and the Heart Sword Sovereign were formidable. Especially Li Jianxin who had the Skyline Sword Art, allowing him to be at the pinnacle of the Law Phase Realm. Back then, everyone felt that he was qualified to fight with the Sword Emperor and the Sword Sovereign.


Right now, Li Fuchen and the Emotionless Sword Emperor were telling everyone that they had yet to even use their full strength. How could it not stupefy everyone?


“It is understandable if the Emotionless Sword Emperor hid his strength. But I can’t tell that Li Fuchen is also hiding his strength!”


The Emotionless Sword Emperor was able to break Li Jianxin’s third move immediately, therefore, he might have held back.


But Li Fuchen was barely able to break the third move and didn’t even injure Li Jianxin.


On the martial stage, there wasn’t a trace of wind as the air had been frozen.


The duo didn’t produce any sword dao resonance, but the stifling aura was even more terrifying than a sword dao resonance.


“Let us fight then.” Li Fuchen said.


“Naturally.” The Emotionless Sword Emperor had calm and emotionless eyes.


Clang!


There weren’t any warning signs when a spark suddenly burst out between the duo.


Clang Clang Clang Clang…


The Emotionless Sword Emperor’s sword art was extremely fast, accurate, and ruthless. There wasn’t a need for complexity in each move, as long as the opponent couldn’t block.


The strongest sword art wouldn’t be the one that was unstoppable, it was the one that was overwhelmingly fast. Such a sword dao logic was exhibited thoroughly in the Emotionless Sword Emperor’s sword art. It was even superior to Li Jianxin.


Li Fuchen’s Void Heaven Sword Art made use of the spatial zone manipulation to the extremity. No matter how fast the Emotionless Sword Emperor’s sword was, there would always be a slight gap before reaching Li Fuchen. No matter how far the distance between the two of them, Li Fuchen’s sword would always be able to approach at a suitable timing.


This was a duel between evenly matched opponents. The two of them were striving for that slight advantage and initiative, but the advantage and initiative would constantly switch between them.


There was a flash of afterimage. The duo who had been crossing moves from afar had suddenly clashed together. The sparks were bursting out frenziedly and forming a screen. It meant that the two swords clashed multiple times in a short period of time and at several angles.


“This is close combat?” Someone felt the goosebumps.


Close combat was the most treacherous as it was truly too close.


Be it Li Fuchen or the Emotionless Sword Emperor, their sword speed reached a few thousand times the speed of sound. With such a fast speed, a few hundred meters would be over in a flash. A few dozen meters could be simply ignored. But what if the distance was less than a meter? The two of them were simply dancing on the tip of the blade.


However, the danger was the reason why everyone felt their blood boiling. They were looking at the duo with eyes of deep respect.


Fast, it was truly too fast.


If it was a battle with a distance of a few dozen meters or hundred meters, the two parties could still judge the situation and plan their next moves.


But when the distance was less than a meter, the duo couldn’t be bothered about anything else. Their only thoughts were to swing the sword and brandish the sword at full force.


Crack!


The two swords broke at the same time.


In the next instant, the duo retrieved new heaven class mid-tier artifact swords at the same speed and slashed at each other.


Clang Bang!


The two swords clashed while their bodies were nearly leaning against each other. It was an insane wrestle of strength.


At the same time, they unintentionally exchanged looks.


Li Fuchen’s eyes were burning but calm.


The Emotionless Sword Emperor’s eyes were emotionless, but had utter sincerity towards the sword dao.


They didn’t see any trace of fear and waver in each others’ eyes.


“It is truly satisfying.” Li Fuchen grinned.


In terms of sword dao, the Emotionless Sword Emperor was definitely an absolute foe. Li Fuchen could feel his blood burning, but his emotions were extremely calm, almost cold-blooded.


The two didn’t just focus on close combat. With each clash, they would be split apart and they wouldn’t waste the chance to slash at each other from a distance.


“Their fundamental strengths are equivalent.” The Tiger Fang Sword Saint commented.


The Hundred Flower Sword Saint nodded, “Earlier on, anyone who faced Li Fuchen or the Emotionless Sword Emperor would be at a disadvantage. Only the match between these two is evenly matched. But I can see that their fundamental sword dao strength isn’t equivalent. To be serious, the Emotionless Sword Emperor’s fundamental sword dao strength is stronger, but Li Fuchen’s combat awareness is too powerful. His sword art seems to be unconstrained in style and untraceable, however, it gives off a very tight feeling. If the opponent isn’t the Emotionless Sword Emperor and someone else with equivalent strength, that opponent would already be at the losing end.”


“That’s right. The emotionless sword dao doesn’t mix any emotions into the sword art. Because it doesn’t have emotions, it will always be the most proper method for combat.”


The Mystic Deep Sword Saint was surprised. He might be talking about the Emotionless Sword Emperor, but he was actually praising Li Fuchen.


The Mystic Deep Sword Saint never saw anyone within the Law Phase Realm that could use their combat awareness to Li Fuchen’s level. It felt like Li Fuchen was born for combat.


The Emotionless Sword Emperor obviously realized it too. Li Fuchen was different from any swordsmen he had encountered. It wasn’t possible to defeat Li Fuchen in close combat. It was only possible by using signature or kill moves.


Countless streaks of white lights were shot out. Each streak was extremely fast, like the sun shining down. However, it was cold and chilled the heart.


Clang Clang Clang…


Li Fuchen slashed with his sword and sent out a translucent blade.


Right at this moment, the Emotionless Sword Emperor’s body turned blurr and there was a sword radiance that was very cold. Due to the extreme speed, the audience felt there was a reverse in time and it felt as though the spatial zone was collapsing.


It was this sword move that the Emotionless Sword Emperor used to defeat Li Jianxin.


Right now, he was using it on Li Fuchen.


Right now, no one had the time to think.


Of course, there were some who could still think.


People like saints.


The Tiger Fang Sword Saint’s eyes were burning. He wanted to see how Li Fuchen would handle this sword move.


Li Fuchen’s spiritual awareness was naturally able to observe this sword. But this sword was too fast and it was even faster than Li Jianxin’s Sky Wind Godspeed Slash.


Li Fuchen used the Void Heaven Sword World.


The frozen void was collapsing and this was the first time Li Fuchen was at a disadvantage.


Immediately after, the two swords clashed again.


There was a burst of terrifying power and Li Fuchen slid away.


“Such a crafty child.” The Hundred Flower Sword Saint’s eyes lit up.


Li Fuchen knew clearly that his sword couldn’t stop the Emotionless Sword Emperor. Therefore, when he swung his sword to test the power, he left some leeway.


Otherwise, when facing the Emotionless Sword Emperor’s sword, the sword would be shattered and Li Fuchen would be defeated.


In this aspect, Li Jianxin was far inferior to Li Fuchen.


Li Fuchen had always fought in a method where he could withdraw and advance as he desired. Even if the opponent was stronger than him, he could stop himself from getting defeated within a short period of time.


“Now that the initiative is lost, it isn’t that easy to escape.”


The Mystic Deep Sword Saint knew deeply about the terror of the emotionless sword dao.


As expected, once the Emotionless Sword Emperor took the advantage, he followed up closely and caught up to Li Fuchen. If Li Fuchen still wanted to use the previous move to deal with the Emotionless Sword Emperor, Li Fuchen would be defeated.


“Sword Sea Horizon.”


Li Fuchen naturally wouldn’t be stubborn in using the same move. His strongest sword art was the Primary Extreme Sword Art.


During the retreat, there was a burst of sword prowess that was massive and extensive. The Emotionless Sword Emperor felt he was in an endless ocean and also as though he was in the starry sky. A human had limited power and when facing the natural forces, even a fearless person would inevitably feel insignificant.


“Danger.”


The Emotionless Sword Emperor’s entire body was giving off an alarm as he frenziedly brandished his sword.


Despite the case, the Emotionless Sword Emperor still bled.


The Sword Sea Horizon couldn’t find a shore and could only sink.


This sword move shocked the entire crowd.
