Chapter 144 The Arrogant Sword Immortal!
Mountain Top
Thousands upon thousands of longswords were stuck between the rocks.
The sword hilt emitted a deep hum in the biting mountain wind, merging into a chilling sword cry.
Each sword represents a Shu Mountain sword cultivator.
They were dressed in uniform blue Taoist robes, standing with their hands behind their backs, their expressions arrogant, their gazes fixed on the solitary figure at the very top.
Li Xiaoyao!
He put one hand behind his back and gently stroked an ancient bronze longsword in his arms with the other.
Two ancient seal characters are engraved on the sword: "Suppress Demons".
This sword has drunk the blood of ancient demon gods and slain the souls of extraterrestrial demons. Within its hilt, it seems to seal a star.
He is the only king of the Shu Mountain Sword Kingdom, a sword immortal destined by heaven.
"Hahahaha! Su Chen, if you want me, Li Xiaoyao, to submit, then roll over here in front of me and fight me!"
His laughter was like rolling thunder, carrying the terrifying sword intent of an SSS-level warrior, tearing a huge gap in the sea of clouds on the horizon.
The sword cultivators below wore expressions of fervent worship; in their hearts, Sword Master Li Xiaoyao was the symbol of invincibility.
"What kind of skill is it to hide and send messages! If you're too scared to come, then shut up!"
Li Xiaoyao was extremely confident.
He has the right to be arrogant.
The ancient divine sword "Demon Suppressor" in his hand, combined with his already mastered SSS-level strength "Sword Heart Clarity," makes him able to look down on all living beings on this planet.
Even if Su Chen himself were to come, he was confident that he would have the strength to fight, and even... be able to kill this so-called savior!
What Li Xiaoyao believed in was the three-foot-long sword in his hand.
It is the supreme sword path that cuts down everything, not some vague and ethereal alliance.
Just as his arrogant laughter had faded, a grand, cold, emotionless thought appeared.
Like divine punishment from the heavens, it exploded directly deep within his soul without warning.
"Li Xiaoyao, I respect your fighting for humanity in your previous life, so I'll give you a chance."
The sound didn't travel through the air; instead, it was directly imprinted on his mind, causing his entire sword intent to freeze for a moment.
Li Xiaoyao's pupils suddenly contracted.
The Grand Elder of Shu Mountain behind him paled and exclaimed, "It's Su Chen! He... his will can actually ignore the protective sword formation of Shu Mountain!"
The Mountain-Protecting Sword Formation, formed by the resonance of ten thousand swords, is strong enough to withstand physical impacts from a Demon Emperor and can also isolate all spiritual probing.
However, Su Chen's thoughts seemed to enter an empty space.
Su Chen's indifferent voice continued to echo in Li Xiaoyao's mind, carrying an unquestionable authority.
"You now agree that you will be the chief swordsman of the Human Destiny Alliance, second only to me in rank."
"Otherwise, you will bear the consequences."
These words were not a negotiation, but an ultimatum.
Li Xiaoyao was taken aback at first, and then a surge of anger at being slighted rose from the bottom of his heart to the top of his head.
He suddenly looked up, and two terrifying sword lights shot out from his eyes, cutting the air in front of him with a "hissing" sound.
"Chief Swordsman? Second only to you in rank?"
He looked up and let out a laugh even more arrogant than before, a laugh filled with unruliness and mockery.
"Su Chen! Who do you think you are, daring to point fingers at me, Li Xiaoyao!"
He raised the Demon-Suppressing Sword high in his hand, its tip pointing straight to the sky, as if to pierce through that invisible will.
"My status, Li Xiaoyao's status, is determined by the sword in my hand! It's not something you can bestow upon me!"
"You want me to submit? Fine!" His voice suddenly turned icy.
"Come to Mount Shu in person, kneel before me, and offer up your world's core. Perhaps I might consider taking you on as a gatekeeper!"
mad!
Extremely crazy!
The Shu Mountain sword cultivators below were ignited by these words, and they all drew their longswords, pointed them at the sky, and roared in unison.
"The Sword Master is invincible!"
"I swear to follow the Sword Master to the death!"
A chorus of ten thousand swords rang out, their sound shaking the eight directions.
In this way, they expressed the pride of the Shushan Sword Kingdom to that so-called savior.
Su Chen's thoughts instantly turned cold.
That grand will dissipated from Li Xiaoyao's mind like the receding tide, leaving only a final, chilling sentence.
"As you wish."
Li Xiaoyao snorted coldly and slowly sheathed his sword. He thought Su Chen had been intimidated by his imposing aura and had already backed down.
"Pass down the order to activate the highest level of alert. I want to see what tricks Su Chen can pull..."
Before he could finish speaking, a strange change occurred at the end of the sky!
A streak of icy blue light, like a sharp blade tearing through a canvas, slashed across the sky, leaving a white mark that lingered for a long time.
The radiant light pointed directly at Mount Shu!
Before the light even arrived, a clear, chilling female voice, carrying endless coldness and a murderous aura, resounded throughout the entire Shu region.
Those who betray the alliance shall be executed!
"Lord Su Chen has ordered that our Ice Phoenix Special Forces be dispatched to subdue them!"
The icy blue light suddenly stopped above the Shu Mountain Sword Kingdom, and the light dissipated, revealing Lin Xue's beautiful face, which was as cold as ice.
She wore a silver-white special forces uniform, and her black hair, like a waterfall, danced wildly in the fierce high-altitude winds.
Behind her, a gigantic phantom of an ice phoenix with a wingspan of over a hundred meters slowly flapped its wings.
Each wave of the fan caused the air temperature below to drop sharply, and countless ice crystals condensed out of thin air and fell down in a flurry.
The terrifyingly low temperature that froze the soul, like an invisible domain, enveloped the entire Shu Mountain.
At the summit, Li Xiaoyao was taken aback when he saw Lin Xue, who had come alone.
He recognized the woman.
Su Chen's capable lieutenant, the owner of the Ice Phoenix ability, and his strength has also reached the SSS level.
But to his surprise, Su Chen's so-called "punishment" actually only involved sending one person.
Then, a contemptuous smile appeared on his lips, and he curled his lip.
"Su Chen, you actually sent a woman to her death?"
His voice wasn't loud, but it carried clearly throughout the entire mountain, eliciting a burst of laughter from the Shu Mountain sword cultivators below.
"Hahaha, is this the savior's army of saviors? This is hilarious!"
"How dare a woman act so presumptuously in my Shu Mountain? Sword Master doesn't even need to lift a finger; a single flying sword from us will be enough to take her life!"
"You ignorant fool!"
In their opinion, this was the funniest joke in the world.
The Shu Mountain Sword Kingdom boasts an army of 100,000 sword cultivators, with the destined sword immortal Li Xiaoyao in charge.
Let alone one woman, even if ten SSS-level powerhouses joined forces to attack, they wouldn't be able to gain the slightest advantage.
In their eyes, Su Chen's actions were not arrogant, but foolish.
Li Xiaoyao slowly raised the Demon-Suppressing Divine Sword in his hand, its ancient blade pointing towards Lin Xue high in the sky, his eyes revealing murderous intent.
"Very well, since Su Chen doesn't dare to come, I'll use your life as a sacrifice to my sword!"
"Let the world see the consequences of defying me, Li Xiaoyao!"
Before he could finish speaking, he was about to unleash his sword energy to kill this arrogant woman.
A sudden change has occurred!
