Chapter 637: Chapter 637: Sword Emperor Appears

Boundless Saber Intent permeated the air, terrifying beyond measure.

A blade of light slashed through, mowing down every Elemental Creature in its path like reaping straw; none could escape its fate.

Shi Hao gritted his teeth and quickly dodged into the Immortal Abode.

After the blade of light passed through, not a blade of grass remained.

Impressive–this must have been just an overflow of Saber Intent, yet it still possessed such horrifying lethal power; the swordsman’s strength was alarmingly formidable.

Boom!

The battle continued, and Shi Hao soon stepped out from the Immortal Abode again, savoring the Saber Intent.

He too was a practitioner of the sword. However, he had not yet stepped into the third realm of the blade due to lack of guidance and insufficient time to delve deeper.

Now, with the terrifying Saber Intent swirling around him, it was as if a master was demonstrating and directly instructing him.

If Shi Hao did not make good use of this opportunity, it would be a sheer waste.

In the distance, a sword was swinging, capable of splitting heaven and earth.

Oh?

After watching for a while, Shi Hao felt a sense of familiarity.

Back on the Eastern Fire Continent, a Fisherman had borrowed a sword from him to cut off Xu Guan’s hand. Even then, he had recognized the sword as an exceptional one, not something a mere fisherman could possess.

However, he did not have the vice of forcefully taking other’s possessions, so he had not harbored any greed; he simply returned the sword and momentarily lost track of the Fisherman’s whereabouts.

He knew even then that he had encountered a master.

But he had never imagined that the master was of such high caliber.

An Almighty of the Heaven Building Ladder!

The battle lasted for half a day, and eventually, both sides’ Almighties of the Heaven Building Ladder ceased fighting. Clearly, no one had perished, for an Almighty’s death on the Heaven Building Ladder would have certainly caused a huge commotion.

Shi Hao felt it was about time and withdrew.

Once back at the camp, he heard people discussing.

“Did you hear? Just now, it was Lord Sword Emperor who took action personally!”

“You mean… Feng Yidao?”

“Hehe, besides him, who else is worthy of the title ‘Sword Emperor’?”

“I was scared to death just now, whoever thought the Elemental Creatures would break the agreement, and suddenly, a Heaven Building Ladder appeared! Fortunately, we were prepared, and Lord Sword Emperor acted in time, blocking the attack and even causing some minor injuries to the other party.”

“Lord Sword Emperor is truly extraordinary!”

“Indeed, the Sword Emperor! Even among the Almighties of the Heaven Building Ladder, how many can ascend to emperorship?”

“Hmm, how I wish I could become a being like Lord Sword Emperor!”

“Don’t bother dreaming; I just hope to, one day, meet Lord Sword Emperor; that would make my life worthwhile.”

Listening to this, Shi Hao realized that the one who had taken action was Feng Yidao!

Speaking of which, his ability to enter the second realm of the blade was due to pondering the other’s Saber Intent. And this time, if he could step into the third realm of the blade, it would still be thanks to Feng Yidao’s help.

Thinking about how he had once borrowed a sword from him, the two indeed shared some origins.

“Shi Hao!” someone suddenly called out.

This made others turn their heads, looking over with hostile looks.

They were all students at Ling Tian Academy and naturally bore animosity towards Shi Hao.

Shi Hao turned to look at the person who called out his name.

Jiang Quan.

Shi Hao’s gaze sharpened, revealing a chill.

The other party was clearly deliberately revealing his identity in order to incite hostility against him.

Jiang Quan returned his gaze coldly; being from the Supplementing Divine Temple, and yet to ignite the Incense Flame, why should he fear Shi Hao?

—-Bei Yan would have been defeated because his cultivation was sealed. He would not be so foolish as to voluntarily handicap himself in a fight to the death.

Nor would he personally deal with Shi Hao. Look, Shi Hao in Ling Tian Academy is practically surrounded by enemies, so he just needs to slightly stir the pot.

Indeed, the group from Ling Tian Academy seemed eager to try.

There are all sorts of rules within the academy, but outside, are there that many restrictions?

Of course, it’s definitely not allowed to kill here, but that doesn’t stop them from beating Shi Hao up.

How does it matter if it’s bullying by the strong? This is not an academy, after all.

Just then, a person dressed as a fisherman came over, ordinary in appearance and of medium build, exceptionally plain and even smelling faintly of fish.

This caused many to cover their noses and step aside as if unwilling to be tainted by the smell.

The “fisherman” took the opportunity to walk over and stopped in front of Shi Hao.

Shi Hao quickly clasped his fists in salute: “I have seen the senior before. Thank you again for the favor of lending your saber.”

This was the Sword Emperor, Feng Yidao!

To have the Sword Emperor lend a saber, what kind of favor was that?

Feng Yidao smiled faintly, patting Shi Hao on the shoulder: “You have great courage to venture deep alone, very good, very good.”

Shi Hao knew that the Sword Emperor’s Saber Intent had passed over, as if he had seen it with his own eyes, he certainly knew where he had been at the time.

He naturally had to be modest about it.

Seeing the two converse, everyone showed a look of disdain.

What taste does Shi Hao have to be getting along so well with a fisherman?

“You, step aside!” someone couldn’t resist interrupting, pointing at the Sword Emperor.

Shi Hao had to admit, this person was bold.

Feng Yidao did not mind. Who was he? Even among the highest realms of Heaven Building Ladder, he was one of the top figures.

The words “Sword Emperor” were already enough to clear things up.

Seeing that Feng Yidao ignored him, the person before naturally became furious. You, a fisherman, dare to act arrogantly in front of me?

Audacious!

He took a step forward in anger, not caring about the fishy smell, and was about to grab Feng Yidao to throw him out, so as not to be bothered by him.

This person was from the Supplementing Divine Temple, so, he was confident that once he made a move, the troublesome person would only end up being thrown out.

However, before he could touch the Sword Emperor, his entire body was sent flying by an invisible force.

The Sword Emperor obviously had a very good temper; although the man was sent flying, he was completely unharmed.

What?

Everyone was surprised, not expecting this unremarkable fisherman to actually be a master.

—-To be able to send a member of the Supplementing Divine Temple flying like that, he must certainly be a Great Sacrificial Heaven powerhouse.

No wonder this person was so carefree.

The person sent flying was furious and said grimly, “Well then, just because you’re a Great Sacrificial Heaven, you think you can bully people at will? I am Mo Huangyun of the Mo Family; you’ve provoked the wrong person!”

He knew he was no match for a “Great Sacrificial Heaven” and immediately turned to leave.

No matter, their camp had powerhouses from the Mo Family stationed there, some even holding the Saintly Position. Bringing these big guns out would surely scare the “fisherman” out of his wits.

Damn it, daring to act arrogantly in front of him.

The crowd sneered, waiting to watch the fun unfold.

Aren’t you aware that Shi Hao has already become a public enemy of the Ling Tian Academy?

You dare to get so close with him, are you asking for trouble?

In front of the vast number of students in Ling Tian Academy, anyone else would have to step back, because the power behind them was too terrifying.
