Chapter 935: No Suspense

Three years might be a very long time for regular people, but to a saint lord, it was the time for seclusion.

Soon enough, the Sword Saint Meet arrived.

Inside the Swordsmen Guild, there was a gigantic martial stage. During normal days, this martial stage wouldn't be open. It would only be opened for grand events like the Sword Saint Meet.

Half of the audience seats that surrounded the martial stage were already filled up. It was truly a huge crowd.

Li Fuchen, the Wind Cloud Sword Saint Lord, and the Red Leaf Sword Saint Lordess arrived below the martial stage together.

“What a huge audience.”

Li Fuchen looked up and saw that the audience seats were filled with saints. Furthermore, all of them were sword dao saints. This was the first time Li Fuchen had witnessed so many sword dao saints gathering.

The Wind Cloud Sword Saint Lord said, “As compared to the Tiger Imperial Star Domain's Sword Star City, the number of sword dao saints in Divine Leaf City is only just a thousandth. Of course, the Sword Star City had the Sword Pool and due to the subtle effects, there is a higher chance of producing sword dao saints.”

“Is the Sword Pool really that amazing?” The Red Leaf Sword Saint Lordess had yet to visit the Sword Star City.

The Wind Cloud Sword Saint Lord nodded, “10,000 years ago, my sword art wasn't a quasi-supreme rate sword art yet. But after visiting the Sword Pool, my sword art immediately upgraded into a quasi-supreme rate sword art.”

“Immediate upgrade to quasi-supreme rate?” The Red Leaf Sword Saint Lordess' eyes widened.

She had only comprehended the quasi-supreme rate sword move a few dozen years ago. She knew clearly about the difficulty to comprehend a quasi-supreme rate sword art. If she didn't have any fateful opportunities, she wouldn't be able to comprehend Red Leaf Wander even after centuries or millennia.

After cultivating to their level, instant comprehension was required.

Without any instant comprehension, one would need to use a huge amount of time to slowly grind it out.

Not everyone was like Li Fuchen who could increase his proficiency level as though he was having a normal meal.

“Furthermore, I was only at the outer borders of the Sword Pool, I wasn't even near the core of the Sword Pool.” The Wind Cloud Sword Saint Lord added on.

“The Sword Pool is truly something to look forward to.” Taking a deep breath, the Red Leaf Sword Saint Lordess was determined that she had to enter the top four of the Sword Saint Meet.

If she wasn't able to cultivate in the Sword Pool at Sword Star City, she might need to spend 10 times or 100 times more time before progressing into a heaven lord.

During the recent years, her sword art had improved greatly and connected one streak of source power. However, it was mainly due to previous fateful opportunities that had yet to be fully used up and also the frequent exchanges with the Wind Cloud Sword Saint Lord and Li Fuchen. It then allowed her to break through.

Moreover, she only connected with one streak of source power. She was still infinitely far away from comprehending a supreme rate sword art. In normal situations, without a few tens of thousands of years, it wasn't possible.

“With your strength, you have a great chance to enter the top four.”

When they spoke to this point, Li Fuchen had already glanced through all the sword dao saint lords who were participating in the Sword Saint Meet. Apart from Li Fuchen and the Wind Cloud Sword Saint Lord, there was only one sword dao qi presence that was stronger than the Red Leaf Sword Saint Lordess. The rest were almost on par and there was a possibility for anyone to emerge victorious.

The Wind Cloud Sword Saint Lord nodded, “Sacred Heart Sword Saint Lord had yet to return. The Heartless Sword Saint Lord should be the only person stronger than you. As for the Black River Sword Saint Lord, his talent and perception are inferior to you. He might have gone to the Sword Pool before, but during this 10,000 years, he didn't improve greatly. He would have connected with a few streaks of source power at most. You should have encountered a fateful opportunity that is probably not inferior to a visit to the Sword Pool.” 

During the Sword Saint Meet 10,000 years ago, the Sacred Heart Sword Saint Lord was 1st, the Wind Cloud Sword Saint Lord was 2nd, the Heartless Sword Saint Lord was 3rd, and the Black River Sword Saint Lord was 4th. Back then, only the Sacred Heart Sword Saint Lord comprehended the quasi-supreme rate sword art.

The Wind Cloud Sword Saint Lord might be known as the no.1 sword dao saint lord in the Divine Leaf City's Swordsmen Guild, but he knew that he wasn't a match for the Sacred Heart Sword Saint Lord. However, the Sacred Heart Sword Saint Lord seemingly left Crosswise River Star Domain and never returned. Therefore, the title of no.1 sword saint lord landed on him.

“Then I shall borrow your blessings.” The Red Leaf Sword Saint Lordess smiled.

“This person is the Primary Extreme Sword Saint Lord?” Seeing the Wind Cloud Sword Saint Lord and Red Leaf Sword Saint Lordess by Li Fuchen's side, everyone thought in their hearts.

Without Li Fuchen around, the Red Leaf Sword Saint Lordess was definitely the most talented swordswoman in the 10,000 years of the Divine Leaf City's Swordsmen Guild. Many reckoned that she must have some fateful opportunities. Of course, everyone knew clearly that fateful opportunities were a part of a martial artist and it couldn't be taken away.

“They said he has the strength of an unparalleled sword dao saint lord. It just so happens that we can observe his strength in this Sword Saint Meet.”

10,000 years ago, the Swordsmen Guild also had six unparalleled sword dao saint lords. 10,000 years later, six turned to eight, including the Red Leaf Sword Saint Lordess and Li Fuchen.

With eight unparalleled sword dao saint lords contesting for four spots, it was obvious that this contest would be exciting.

As for the other pinnacle saint lords that participated in the Sword Saint Meet, they were simply ignored.

For a pinnacle saint lord to compete for the top four ranks in the Sword Saint Meet was the same as to have a fantasy. Even if they broke through at this moment, there was still no hope.

“I have already connected with the black river sword dao source power. I must make another trip to the Sword Pool.” On the other side of the martial stage, the black-clothed Black River Sword Saint Lord took a glance with his sharp eyes.

10,000 years ago, he was fortunate enough to visit the Sword Pool. A few years later, he had comprehended the quasi-supreme rate sword art.

He knew well that if he didn't visit the Sword Pool 10,000 years ago, he might not have comprehended the quasi-supreme rate sword art until now, let alone connecting with the black river sword dao source power.

Sometimes, a fateful opportunity would equate to tens of thousands of years of diligent cultivation.

The audience seats were already 90% full.

All of a sudden, a figure appeared on the martial stage. Everyone focused their eyes and were involuntarily excited. It was the vice guildmaster, White Rainbow Heaven Lord.

The White Rainbow Heaven Lord had a long beard and a pair of small eyes. Just in terms of appearance, he didn't look outstanding, but his supreme qi presence was enough to waver anyone's spirits and no one dared to look directly at him.

“The Sword Saint Meet is only conducted once every 10,000 years. The top four participants can head to the Tiger Imperial Star Domain's Sword Star City to cultivate in the Sword Pool. But all of you need to thank the Sacred heart Sword Saint Lord… To be correct, it should be to thank the Sacred Heart Heaven Lord. A few thousand years ago, the Sacred Heart Sword Saint Lord had progressed into a heaven lord and obtained another spot for our Divine Leaf City's Swordsmen Guild. Therefore, this year's Sword Saint Meet will allow the top five participants to visit the Sword Pool.” The White Rainbow Heaven Lord's voice transmitted into everyone's ears very clearly.

“What? The Sacred Heart Sword Saint Lord progressed into a heaven lord?”

“Incredible, I was thinking why didn't the Sacred Heart Sword Saint Lord appear for so many years.”

“Why are you still calling him Sacred Heart Sword Saint Lord, he is a heaven lord now.”

People started heated discussions in the audience seats.

Different from the audiences, the participants below the martial stage were focused on the additional spot to visit the Sword Pool. It was great news for them.

“The Sword Saint Meet shall officially begin. Those who think you are capable can stand on top.” With a wave of the hand, the White Rainbow Heaven Lord split the martial stage into five.

Hearing the statement, eight figures rushed for the martial stages.

All eight figures were unparalleled sword dao saint lords, including Li Fuchen.

“Back off.”

Eight individuals were contesting for five martial stages. Therefore, most of the stages had two individuals contesting for it. Li Fuchen was contesting against the Black River Sword Saint Lord.

The Black River Sword Saint Lord drew the black sword and with a slash, there was a sword light that looked like a black wave. It was illusory and real at the same time. It was so contradictory that it induced a desire to vomit blood just by looking at it.

“You are the one who should back off.”

Li Fuchen's body emitted an overwhelming sword sea that countered the black wave.

Boom!

The Black River Sword Saint Lord was sent flying while blood flowed out from his mouth and nose.

“What? He sent me flying without drawing his sword?” The Black River Sword Saint Lord was astonished.

He had already connected with the black river sword dao source power and believed he could contest with the Wind Cloud Sword Saint Lord and the Heartless Sword Saint Lord. He didn't think anyone could defeat him without drawing their swords.

“So powerful. The Primary Extreme Sword Saint Lord is ridiculously powerful. The Black River Sword Saint Lord was 4th rank in the previous Sword Saint Meet. But a casual attack from the Primary Extreme Sword Saint Lord was already too much for the Black River Sword Saint Lord.”

“Too overwhelming. This Sword Saint Meet doesn't have any more suspense.”

The audiences were dumbfounded.

After defeating the Black River Sword Saint Lord, Li Fuchen successfully stood on one of the martial stages.

With an indifferent expression, he looked especially profound and unfathomable in everyone's eyes, just like a god of sword.

Apart from him, the Wind Cloud Sword Saint Lord and the Heartless Sword Saint Lord had also stood on a martial stage each.

The Wind Cloud Sword Saint Lord wasn't surprised, but the Heartless Sword Saint Lord's eyes involuntarily widened after witnessing Li Fuchen's attack for the first time.

“Wind Cloud Sword Saint Lord, where did this Primary Extreme Sword Saint Lord come from?” The Heartless Sword Saint Lord asked.

The Wind Cloud Sword Saint Lord replied, “In terms of talent and perception, he is the most terrifying swordsman I have ever seen. Few years ago, he still wasn't a match for me.”

“That is indeed terrifying.” The Heartless Sword Saint Lord was stunned.

Back then, not even the Sacred Heart Sword Saint Lord was so outstanding.

The two other martial stages had intense battles.

The Red Lead Sword Saint Lordess was fighting against an unparalleled sword dao saint lord who was called Yin Yang Sword Saint Lord. He cultivated the yin yang sword dao but it was obvious that he had broken through the apex state of yin yang sword dao. His sword art had a fusion of yin and yang, and contained the primal state. Each move was filled with boundless energy and it was hard to fight against.

It was fortunate that the Red Lead Sword Saint Lordess had connected with one streak of red leaf sword dao source power, otherwise, she might not be able to resist.

On the other stage, the Shadow Stalk Sword Saint Lord was battling against another unparalleled sword dao saint lord. His Shadow Stalk Sword Art was formless and invisible. It was in the state between illusion and reality. His opponent was having a very difficult time and the Shadow Stalk Sword Saint Lord would probably defeat his opponent after a short period of time.

Seeing everything in his eyes, Li Fuchen thought to himself, “It is fortunate there are five spots, otherwise, the Red Leaf Sword Saint Lordess might not be able to win if she encountered the Shadow Stalk Sword Saint Lord.”

Previously, he could only differentiate everyone's strength by their sword dao qi presence, therefore, there were rooms for error.

Seeing everyone making their moves, he was almost sure of the rankings.

There wasn't a need to talk about the 1st rank, it was definitely himself.

The 2nd rank and 3rd rank would be either the Wind Cloud Sword Saint Lord and the Heartless Sword Saint Lord. The 4th rank would probably be the Shadow Stalk Sword Saint Lord, while the 5th rank might be the Red Leaf Sword Saint Lordess.

Shortly after, the Shadow Stalk Sword Saint Lord defeated his opponent and stood on the stage.

The Red Leaf Sword Saint Lordess was still fighting against the Yin Yang Sword Saint Lord.

The Yin Yang Sword Saint Lord might not have connected with the yin yang sword dao source power, but he broke through the apex state of yin yang sword dao. With a unified offense and defense, he was proficient in making use of his opponent's power. The Red Leaf Sword Saint Lordess might seem to be suppressing the Yin Yang Sword Saint Lord, but she wasn't holding the upperhand.

A few thousand exchanges later, the Yin Yang Sword Saint Lord still lost. Without connecting with the source power, his burst strength was inferior to the Red Leaf Sword Saint Lordess. A slight reveal of flaw was enough for the Red Leaf Sword Saint Lordess to take advantage of it and defeat him.
