Chapter 2504
Li Qiye had already talked about going easy on the saber saint even before the start of the battle . This could have invited ridicules in the past because of the saint’s cultivation . It was indeed impressive among the young generation . Perhaps not even Eight Formation True Emperor could take him on .
Now, Li Qiye spoke as if he was so certain of victory . Of course, no one opened their mouth because they knew that a fierce battle was going to ensue .
The one paying the most attention was Tang Hexiang . He attentively stared at the two while holding his spear tight enough that his fingers started to turn white . The guy resembled a bow fully drawn, ready to shoot at any moment .
“I should thank you for showing mercy then . ” The saber saint showed no sign of anger and took a deep breath before slowly unsheathed his saber, issuing a metallic hum .
During this slow process, the saber and the sheath had a clear sound from the friction, almost like a song of sorts . More and more of the flashy glint inched out . Once the entire blade left its cover, its brilliance rushed out all at once .
“Clang!” The saber hummed loudly and clearly like jade and gold hitting each other with a trace of grand dao contained within .
Space rippled as a result . Though he has yet to emit his explosive aura, the saber intent was in full swing . His saber stood tall among the heaven and earth, completely immovable . No one could take half a step past him and his eventual slash .
“Clang!” Another hymn came about, not from the blade itself this time around but from the saber saint .
As he held the saber with both arms, he became an invincible saber with incomparable sharpness . The snow-white rays coming from him could cut through all .
He seemed to be one with his saber - he is the saber and the saber is him . This sharp saber intent was enough to make the crowd shudder with fear .
“Boom!” He finally released his energy and majestic aura, turning him into a mighty mountain - towering, powerful, and immense .
“Lin . ” People recognized this aura of his .
“He might have the most energy among the young generation . ” One ancestor claimed .
Lin was a merit law focused on energy . Although its user would have a slow time amassing and increasing their overall energy level, the grand completion of this merit law would yield a massive amount far exceeding others .
The saber saint’s energy level wasn’t only pure and thick, it also had a regal presence akin to a rainbow reaching for the sun .
This regal force made him look like a king and changed the color of his violet robe to a yellow shade - that of an imperial king .
Say, a while ago, he was a noble, then now, he was a saber king - able to rule the world as long as his weapon was in his grasp . The combination of his ample energy and this particular regal force made him quite peerless and stately .
“This is my minor achievement in the dao of the saber . I named it, Imperial Saber . ”
The saint didn’t resort to using the merit laws from the sages of Waterfront Pavilion, not the True Emperor ones either . Instead, he chose his own creation .
“Imperial Saber… the name is apt . ” One spectator saw the magnificent state of the saint and agreed .
“Well done . Temperament, energy, and dao are all fused together in harmony . ” Li Qiye praised .
“Please . ” The saber saint pointed his saber forward with a solemn expression . He remained courteous in battle since to him, showing respect to the enemy was the same as showing respect to himself .
Li Qiye smiled and said: “Since you’re using the Imperial Slash, I’ll be using a Fiendish Slash then . ”
His eyes slightly focused, resulting in a deafening explosion . An evil flame engulfed his body and devastated the area around him .
He instantly turned into an unequaled devil king with eighteen black wings . All existences only served as his food .
“Damn!” This oppressive power boost startled the crowd, forcing some of them to drop butt-first on the ground .
“What evil merit law is this?!” One guy quivered .
“It’s not a merit law . ” An ancestor carefully gazed at Li Qiye before concluding: “It’s a direct transformation process . ”
“A single thought to become a devil…” The saber saint became even more serious . He has seen many strange things during his journey so the guy realized the terror of Li Qiye’s ability .
“Clank!” Li Qiye raised his hand and an evil saber emerged from the flame .
It possessed an aura drowning out the world, turning it into a fiendish hell . This saber seemed to have been empowered by evil energy a million times over .
It pulsed with a dark flame, adding to the image of him being a devil king even more . Just one slash could reap countless lives .
“I’ve been bored for a while now so let’s play with this form . ” Li Qiye casually swung his saber around to warm up, not looking like a serious combatant at all .
No one dared to say anything about his flippant attitude . Only respect and awe permeated the crowd after seeing his transformation .
“Please, your move . ” The saber saint was ready . He was a king with an orthodox grand dao . Just standing there made him look like an inviolable ruler .
Li Qiye smiled and said: “I will be a bully if I were to go first since you won’t have the chance to retaliate . You may start with three moves before your inevitable defeat . ”
The saber saint didn’t take offense to such arrogant words at all .
“Very well, excuse me then . ” He didn’t refuse and took a deep breath before taking his stance .
“Boom!” His regal aura erupted, capable of toppling the mountains and overturning the seas .
“Clank!” He made his move, bereft of flashy movements yet enough to flatten the world .
Dangers and difficulties became trivial before this regal slash, only a broad and open road lay before him .
“The Path of a King!” He roared and unleashed his attack . Who knows if he was the one performing the slash or if his saber willed it so .
This was a technique-less slash, only a dao of the saber that could calm the universe .
The move naturally astonished the spectators . All along, they searched for refined and fatal techniques .
However, these techniques seemed meaningless and feeble before this regal dao of the saber saint .
