Chapter 1181: Chapter 1072: Dugu Tajin First Sword

Yuan Wuji made his move, and in an instant, the valley was filled with flying sand and rolling stones, the power was immense!

This was a strike from a Breath Soil Realm powerhouse, capable of annihilating any challenger of the Ride the Wind level.

“Be careful!”

Fan Yaoyao couldn’t help but call out to the man on the altar, although she didn’t know who he was, she subconsciously felt that she didn’t want him to get hurt.

The young man on the altar, however, was serene at this moment, facing Yuan Wuji’s terrifying palm strike, he brought his two fingers together and drew in the void in front of him as if he was writing in the air.

Boom!

But his drawing in the void immediately caused a huge tumult in the space, as if a royal wave of Sword Qi surged forth from the air, completely dispelling the opponent’s palm strike!

“What kind of Sword technique is this?!”

“How can it be… so powerful?!”

Everyone was shocked.

The fact that this young man was able to block a strike of the Dominant Lord level could initially be explained by the three Dominant Lords being wary and not giving their all.

But now, Yuan Wuji had certainly used his true strength.

Yet, he was still blocked.

Moreover, the other party was just sitting on the altar, not moving a muscle!

“He… has he mastered the sword techniques from those stone carvings? How is that possible!”

Sword Nameless then exclaimed in horror.

He is a Sword Dao warrior and keenly perceived that the young man’s grand Sword Dao technique was very similar to the previous Sword Array and the Sword Dao True Form Diagrams on the stone carvings.

Upon hearing this, others were also amazed.

“The True Form of Sword Dao Diagrams, it’s actually so strong!”

“To think it’s possible, with the Chengfeng Realm, to contend against the Breath Soil Realm?”

“Those True Form of Sword Dao Diagrams… we must get them and take them away, they can absolutely flourish an entire sect!”

For a moment, everyone’s eyes were filled with intense desire.

“Sword Immortal, didn’t you say that, nowadays, no more than the number of fingers on one’s hand can comprehend even half of the True Form Diagrams?”

Linyihao also could not help but speak:

“He… is he the Sword Dao genius you mentioned?”

And at this moment, within his Path-Scenic Land, the Rotten Sword Immortal had already stood up straight, she looked through Linyihao’s eyes, watching outside, her eyeballs almost falling out!

Her body was even trembling slightly!

“No…”

“He is not a Sword Dao genius…”

Linyihao asked doubtfully: “Not a genius?”

Rotten Sword Immortal:

“He is the origin of the Sword Dao… the ultimate of the Sword Dao!”

Her words were like enigmatic riddles.

Linyihao was shocked. The origin of the Sword Dao?

What kind of appraisal was this?

However, the Rotten Sword Immortal continued to mutter to herself:

“The Swordsmanship True Form Diagrams are indeed profound, but the Sword Dao he uses to manipulate these diagrams…”

“That is the origin of the Sword Dao… it can’t be wrong, it can’t be!”

“Could it be… he… he is the last existence of those people?!”

At this moment, the Rotten Sword Immortal thought of a possibility.

Once a follower of Emperor Zhantian, an outstanding Sword Dao master among the War Heaven Emperor’s Court, she knew too many ancient secrets and prophecies…

The forebears of the twelve ancestors were the creators of the twelve oldest major paths in the world!

Sword Dao was one of them.

And the Sword Dao stone carvings in this Origin Valley were left by one of those twelve ancestors who had mastered the Sword Dao.

Now, the Sword Dao is re-emerging…

She instantly confirmed Dugu Yuqing’s identity.

“The ancestors of the twelve forebears fell in the darkness, the fire illuminated their corpses, allowing them to reincarnate with the passage of time, like scattered sparks… over the long years, the sparks kept extinguishing, this era, has already been reduced to the last…”

“He… is the spark that fell in those days, he is the last existence of those people!”

At this moment, the Rotten Sword Immortal, with her pale eyes, was clearly filled with excitement!

“The fire re-emerges, one of the ancestors who once passed down the Sword Dao has appeared… the other sparks, the other eleven ancestors, have they also appeared?”

“If they can all re-emerge, all grow to their former height, this era, perhaps, there is indeed hope…”

She whispered to herself, but then she began to tremble and said:

“No… he has no chance anymore… the darkness has arrived!”

…

In the valley.

Atop the altar, the youth remains motionless, still appearing indifferent.

“Today, no one competes with me… Happiness comes so unexpectedly.”

Dugu Yuqing smiled lightly, glanced over the many experts present, and declared:

“Come at me all together!”

All together…

In response to these words, anger instantly surged among the crowd.

“Brat, you dare to belittle us so?”

“Seeking death… Kill him!”

“Forget all caution, let’s take him down together, and seize that Ancient Bronze Lamp!”

At once, every expert in the arena sprang into action.

In the face of such interests, no one cared for maintaining an expert’s dignity or fairness. Killing Dugu Yuqing as quickly as possible was what mattered most.

For a moment, the valley was awash with the ethereal shadows of Daoist Sceneries emerging from everyone, their terrifying powers unleashed and converging into an immense ocean of force.

“Celestial Sword, invincible… Die!”

Sword Nameless bellowed as he stood as though perched upon the Land of Nothingness, with every inch of ground beneath him supporting his stance, unleashing formidable power that transformed into an invisible Divine Sword slashing down.

The power of Ge Renxiong morphed into the Celestial Blade, almost as if it could slice through space itself. His expression dark, he launched a direct side attack!

Beneath Yuan Wuji’s feet, his Path-Scenic Land materialized, transforming him into a mountainous figure. The earth split open from his standing point, with the fissures spreading toward the black altar!

Aside from the three Dominant Lords, the other experts also launched frenzied attacks!

Upon seeing this, Dugu Yuqing simply smiled serenely, stood tall and stated:

“Very well… I like this.”

“Remember this… This sword move is named ‘Dugu Tajin First Sword!'”

With one hand holding the Ancient Bronze Lamp and the other’s two fingers joined as a sword, his Path-Scenic Land emerged behind him!

His Path-Scenic Land was unmistakably an endless Sword Domain, a path of rules leading straight into the Land of Nothingness. In the pitch-dark nothingness, there surged five terrifyingly splendid Qi Rivers, hanging inverted like Heavenly Waterfalls!

“What is that… Could it be the Five Qis?!”

“How is that possible… The Najin Realm is just about harboring Forbidden Qi… This, this must be Forbidden Qi Rivers, right?”

“Astonishingly brilliant… It’s my first time witnessing such a terrifying Najin!”

Everyone was shocked.

At the same time, many were further driven by a murderous intent. This kind of genius, having already made a move, absolutely could not be left alive.

Mighty attacks thundered down.

But Dugu Yuqing’s figure was illusionary, like a phantom dream.

He seemed to stand in reality, yet also appeared to enter the Path-Scenic Land of Nothingness.

The Five Qis transformed into wind, preventing him from falling into nothingness.

The first stage of the Chengfeng Realm – Xiaocheng Unfallen!

With a mere thought, he rode the wind, charging into the endless sea of power!

The second stage of the Chengfeng Realm – Middle Vehicle Soaring Flight!

His speed increased rapidly, leaving trails of afterimages as if to break free from this world.

The third stage of the Chengfeng Realm – Mahayana as if soaring through clouds and mists!

Approaching the endless sea of attacks, Dugu Yuqing’s body burst forth with Sword Dao, his brilliant sword light like fireworks in the night, suddenly exploding.

Boom!

In that moment, a sword thrust by Dugu Yuqing startled the sky, the forbidden aura churning tumultuously with his strike.

This was his first sword strike upon stepping onto the Path of the Forbidden – Dugu Tajin First Sword!

At this moment, the ocean of force unleashed collectively by the three Dominant Lords and the elite experts from various sects was torn asunder by this single sword strike!

In that instant, the reinforcing experts stumbled back, their Path-Scenic Lands fading away, as they landed on the ground, their faces pale and their vital energies in disarray, disbelief written all over their faces.

“He… is only at the Mahayana stage of the Chengfeng Realm… He hasn’t even manifested Fuyao yet…”

“And yet, he defeated us all…”

“The sudden flash of the sword startles the cold magpie… Could it be that he is the sword light prophesied…”

At this moment, everyone struggled to speak, astonishment in their eyes!

Meanwhile, Dugu Yuqing stood calmly in the air, holding the Ancient Bronze Lamp aloft, and then declared:

“Today… light the lamp!”

However, his words had barely fallen.

“The lamp must not be lit; you too shall be punished!”

A dispassionate voice suddenly rang out, and a dark pathway abruptly emerged from the sky.

…

Goodnight.
