First Immortal of the Sword-Chapter 1346 - I Control the Human Realm, and None Can Stop Me!

Before the curtains opened on the duel atop the Violet Heavens Platform, the extent of the Temple Master’s strength was one of the most popular topics of debate throughout the stars.

Both ancient and modern orthodoxies had come to a clear answer. He was comparable to the greatest of early-stage Nascent Divinity Transcendents!

In a one-on-one confrontation, he ought to be evenly matched with the Painter, the Fisherman, and other former peak World Kings.

This was the conclusion the top factions had reached after the battles at Universal Emptiness Temple and the Divine Forge.

Yet now, Su Yi had sent the Painter flying in a single punch. The crowd suddenly realized they’d been mistaken!

It had only been two months, but the Temple Master’s strength was obviously far greater than before!

This truth left countless onlookers’ hearts quivering with fright.

Splurt!

As the Painter steadied himself, he couldn’t help but cough up blood, staining his lapels red. His face was pallid, his brow was furrowed, and his eyes were full of alarm and confusion.

He too realized that his predictions were mistaken.

“I said that out of the four of you, you're the most unseemly, and it's true. Your heart is weaker than the others', and your conduct is worse,” Su Yi said softly.

His entire body was swathed in sword intent, forceful and imposing, and he spoke without contempt. He was not insulting his opponent; he was simply stating a fact.

Before his voice had even finished echoing through the air, Su Yi shot forth like a beam of flowing light. He was already launching another attack on the Painter.

“Attack together!”

The Fisherman, Deng Zuo, and Yan Daolin could tell that something wasn’t right.

Yan Daolin led the charge. A terrifying aura rose from his body, so boundless it seemed like a curtain draping over the entire Human Realm and blotting out the sun.

A massive drum enveloped in divine silver light appeared above Yan Daolin’s head. This was a Transcendent-level treasure!

When it appeared, the rumbling of thunder echoed throughout heaven and earth.

Yan Daolin used his hand as a mallet to beat the divine silver drum. Silver sound waves visible even to the naked eye swept toward Su Yi.

Throughout the surrounding thirty thousand feet of sky, everything in the soundwaves’ paths split and exploded. Nothing could stand in their way. Countless onlookers watched in astonishment. It was as if a Daoist venerate were sharing his teachings as lightning shook the world!

But a dazzling streak of golden sword qi arrived even faster than the silver soundwaves, almost as if it had teleported. It was headed straight for Su Yi.

Su Yi pressed down, meeting the incoming golden sword qi head-on.

But he staggered slightly on his feet. When the silver soundwaves descended upon him like an avalanche, he had no choice but to temporarily give up on pursuing the Painter. Instead, he turned to clash with the soundwaves directly.

Boom!

He punched with all his might. The boundless sea of silver soundwaves instantly burst and split, creating a massive torrent.

Meanwhile, the Painter seized this opportunity to escape.

Su Yi disregarded this and looked into the distance.

Yan Daolin, Deng Zuo, and the Fisherman had already arrived beneath the dome of heaven.

Yan Daolin controlled a silver drum covered in flowing immortal light.

The Fisherman held a massive net woven out of fire dragons. The dragons were lifelike and detailed, down to their scales and sharp claws. As they flowed and interwove, they released a terrifying aura.

A Transcendent treasure, the Fire Dragon Net!

A sword pellet hovered before Deng Zuo. A waterfall of golden sword qi poured down from it. Every streak seemed condensed out of inexhaustible power, and their aura was terrifying and forceful.

The Elemental Gold Sword Pellet!

This too was a Transcendent treasure!

As the three Transcendent powerhouses took the stage, uproar ensued among the spectators. All eyes were upon them.

“I wouldn’t have guessed it, but you’ve gathered quite a few decent treasures over the years,” said Su Yi.

“If we didn’t have something up our sleeves, how could we dare challenge the Temple Master?” the Fisherman said flatly.

“Temple Master, when we attack, we’ll give it our all. We won’t hold anything back,” warned Deng Zuo. “You ought to draw your sword.”

Su Yi laughed. “That’ll depend on whether or not you’re capable of making me draw it.”

“Very well.” Yan Daolin nodded.

He used his hand as a hammer, beating the divine silver drum. Glittering silver soundwaves transformed into an invisible, hundred-foot sword. It rumbled and boomed, shaking the world as it slashed furiously through the air.

Meanwhile, Deng Zuo tapped the sword pellet hovering in front of him.

Countless streaks of golden sword qi shot forth like a sudden downpour, piercing heaven and earth.

Meanwhile, the Fisherman stood at a distance, unfurling his fiery net and waiting for his opportunity to strike.

After witnessing Su Yi’s clash with the Painter, they knew how terrifyingly strong he was. Thus, they dared not hold back. All of them were giving it everything they had.

“Break!”

Su Yi clenched his fist and hammered the air.

Yan Daolin was beating a drum, but Su Yi was effectively using all of heaven and earth as a drum, and his Dao of the Sword was the mallet!

Boom!

A silent but massive reverberation spread. Tyrannical power of the Dao of the Sword spread from the point of impact, sweeping outward in all directions. It instantly struck that hundred-foot invisible Dao Sword.

The skies split, and divine flames surged.

Two types of terrifying energy fluctuations collided, resulting in a massive impact.

The hundred-foot Dao Sword shattered, inch by inch.

Yan Daolin felt as if he were facing a hundred-thousand-foot tidal wave. His divine drum shook violently and attempted to break free of his grip, leaving him no choice but to retreat and neutralize the power of Su Yi’s fist.

With every step he retreated, the air collapsed, leaving a hollow in the sky.

Nine steps later, Yan Daolin finally steadied himself. Despite himself, his gaze was solemn. Su Yi’s terrifying combat prowess left him stunned.

Meanwhile, Su Yi swung his sleeves through the air.

Whoosh!

The formless power of his Dao of the Sword swept forth, eradicating the golden sword qi filling the sky.

Deng Zuo’s heart shook, and he gasped.

But it was then that the Fisherman attacked. The net woven out of fire dragons descended from the heavens, enveloping Su Yi.

As it fell, the net transformed into fiery red divine chains seemingly condensed out of the Laws. They were crystalline and translucent, and they glittered like divine gold.

Even Su Yi couldn’t help but furrow his brow. He could sense that if he let the net trap him, it wouldn’t matter if he had all-encompassing abilities. His hands would effectively be tied, and he’d find himself in incomparable peril.

“Very well, I'll give you that. Allow me to show you the new and improved Sword of the Human Realm.”

As his soft voice rang out, Su Yi drew his sword without any further hesitation.

Clang!

The hum of the sword was low and deep. The simple, unadorned, deep blue sword burst with tidelike streaks of chaotic energy and a revolving rain of immortal light.

And when Su Yi attacked, all the crowd saw was a flash of blue before a bright red divine chain broke, and a corner of the Fire Dragon Net opened enough for Su Yi to slip through safely.

This entire series of attacks happened in a flash.

But this brief clash was perilous to the extreme, and terrifying to the extreme.

When the onlookers looked at Su Yi, their eyes were wide with surprise. Even Transcedents likely wouldn’t have been able to hold out in the face of such a joint attack.

Yet Su Yi had broken through each attack, neutralizing them one by one!

His terrifying strength was entirely beyond their imagination. His abilities were simply unheard of!

“Forcing the Temple Master to draw his sword doesn’t amount to much. Now, it’s time to determine life and death,” the Fisherman said coldly.

“Indeed, we ought to do just that,” said Deng Zuo with a soft sigh. He flicked his fingers. The sword pellet in front of him burst with dazzling golden light, and sword qi ripped through the skies. An unparalleled Dao Sword gradually took shape within the light. Countless threads of auspicious radiance poured down, misty and colorful.

Meanwhile, the Painter waved his Heaven-Subduing Brush, and Yan Daolin beat his silver drum.

In the face of these powerful foes, Su Yi showed no sign of fear. On the contrary, he threw back his head and laughed, his long hair fluttering around him. “Excellent!”

The Sword of the Human Realm let out an impassioned hum, and its sword force connected heaven and earth.

Su Yi swung it, advancing instead of retreating.

Boom!

The skies shook, revealing hints of the Laws of the surrounding area.

The beating of a drum, the humming of a sword, an unfurling scroll, and a massive net... All manner of terrifying powers surged through the air as a violent conflict raged.

It was far too chaotic and tumultuous. Divine radiance stung the eyes, treasure light flew through the air, and none of the combatants were visible to the onlookers.

The spectators watched in a daze, repeatedly astonished!

“Before the battle began, I thought this duel was unfair to His Excellency the Temple Master. Now, it seems that even a far less fair duel wouldn’t be enough to stop him!”

“He’s just too strong! Too strong!”

Some of the younger cultivators were too excited to speak coherently.

“He’s fighting one against four, but he’s still held out this long. Isn’t the Temple Master’s reincarnation... a bit too strong?”

The Transcendents present were all alarmed and uncertain.

Earlier, all of them assumed that Su Yi would suffer a crushing defeat at his appointed duel at the Violet Heavens Platform. They didn’t think there was any suspense about the outcome at all.

After all, four mighty Transcendents were joining forces against him.

Yet the battle unfolding before their eyes wasn’t going at all how they expected.

“Alas! No matter how heaven-defying he is, he won’t make it out of here alive!” Zhong Tianquan said icily.

Soon——

A heaven-shaking impact rang out.

Yan Daolin grunted coldly as he was forced explosively back.

Practically simultaneously, the Sword of the Human Realm cleaved open his silver drum.

Boom!

This Transcendent treasure split into pieces. Blood poured down the corners of Yan Daolin’s lips, and a hint of heartache appeared on his brow.

Meanwhile, Su Yi was already clashing with his other three opponents.

Bang! Bang! Bang!

A series of rapid-fire explosions rang out as the Painter’s attack, thirty-three paintings of the heavens, shattered.

Unstoppable sword intent instantly bore right through them!

The Painter, meanwhile, was sent flying back. His hair was disheveled, and he looked completely wretched.

Immediately afterward, Su Yi pressed down on the air, and an arc of endless, dazzling sword qi shot into the air, leaving the descending Fire Dragon Net riddled with holes.

“Dammit!” The Fisherman cried out. His heart ached. It hadn’t been at all easy to acquire that treasure, but now, it was badly damaged, and he’d even suffered a backlash.

Su Yi then swung the Sword of the Human Realm as if it were an axe.

Clang!!!

An ear-splitting impact rang out.

The unparalleled sword manifested of Deng Zuo’s sword pellet was only three feet from Su Yi when Su Yi’s slash blocked it!

A fierce conflict followed. The Sword of the Human Realm burst with terrifying sword force. It bore down on the unparalleled Dao Sword until it couldn’t take it anymore. It returned to pellet form and flew backward with a bang.

However, its former radiance had dimmed, and there were now numerous fine cracks on its surface.

The impact left Deng Zuo staggering back, a hint of pain in his expression. His Daoist topknot came undone, letting his long white hair dance freely in the wind.

In the time it took to snap his fingers, Su Yi used the Sword of the Human Realm to break several Transcendent Treasures and force back four powerful opponents!

Everyone who saw this was so astonished that their scalps went numb.
