775: Chapter 775 Lu Xueqi and Biyao (154)

"Su Han!" Fairy Yuehua was shocked to see Su Han injured and wanted to rush over to help, but Su Han waved his hand at her, signaling her not to come over.

Su Han climbed up from the ground, wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth, and a glimmer of stubbornness flashed in his eyes. He knew that the sword Dao cultivation of the Tianzhu Sword Spirit was far above his own, and if he clashed head-on, he would be no match at all. He had to find a way to use technique and wisdom to bridge the gap in strength.

"Chaos Sword Technique—Chaos Heaven and Earth!" Su Han shouted, unleashing another move of the Chaos Sword Technique. He raised the chaos sword high, and golden Chaos Power surged from it, forming a golden screen of light around him. Inside the light screen, Chaos Qi circulated, as if it were a small world of Chaos, protecting him within.

Seeing this, the Tianzhu Sword Spirit's eyes flashed with surprise, and it said: "Chaos Heaven and Earth? Interesting. To think you could use Chaos Power to simulate a world; the defensive power is indeed not bad. However, do you think this can block my Tianzhu Sword Technique? Tianzhu Sword Technique—Third Move, Zhutian!"

The Tianzhu Sword turned into black lightning once again and thrust toward Su Han, but this time, the volume of the black lightning was several times larger than before, as if it could destroy the heavens and earth, carrying world-destroying power as it slammed heavily into the golden light screen.

"Boom—!" With a deafening roar that shook heaven and earth, the golden light screen trembled violently and cracks appeared, but it did not shatter. Su Han gritted his teeth, frantically circulating his Chaos Power to repair the cracks in the light screen, preventing it from breaking.

A glimmer of appreciation flashed in the Tianzhu Sword Spirit's eyes, and it said: "To be able to block my Zhutian, your Chaos Heaven and Earth truly has some merit. However, this is not enough. Next, I will unleash the ultimate Profound Truth of the Tianzhu Sword Technique—Tianzhudiemie! If you can block this move, I will recognize your sword Dao."

The Tianzhu Sword hovered in the air, and an unprecedented black light erupted from its blade. At this moment, all the swords in the entire Secret Realm trembled violently, and countless Sword Qi surged from the swords on the ground, gathering toward the Tianzhu Sword. The Tianzhu Sword absorbed all this Sword Qi, and the black light on the blade became increasingly intense and terrifying, finally forming a massive black sword blade that radiated a power capable of destroying everything.

"Tianzhu Sword Technique—Tianzhudiemie!" The Tianzhu Sword Spirit shouted, and the black sword blade slashed toward Su Han. The speed was astonishing, the power was terrifying, and wherever it passed, space was torn apart, leaving behind black cracks.

Watching the black sword blade slashing toward him, Su Han felt no fear, but instead, a surge of Battle Intent rose within him. He knew this was an important checkpoint on his path of sword Dao; if he could block this move, his sword Dao cultivation would experience a qualitative leap. If he couldn't block it, he might die here, but he had no regrets, for this was his own choice.

"Chaos Sword Technique—Chaos Unity!" Su Han shouted, fusing all the power within his body—Chaos Power, Power of the Dao Heart, Green Lotus Power, and the Origin power of his Indestructible Chaos Body—together and injecting it into the chaos sword. A dazzling golden light erupted from the chaos sword, forming a massive golden sword blade that clashed head-on with the black sword blade.

The golden sword blade and the black sword blade slashed toward each other simultaneously, colliding in space.

"Boom—!!!" With a deafening roar that shook heaven and earth, the entire Secret Realm trembled violently. Countless swords on the ground were sent flying by the shockwave, dancing wildly in the air. The golden Chaos Power and the black destructive power intertwined and collided, forming a terrifying storm of power that raged through the Secret Realm.

Su Han gritted his teeth, frantically circulating his Chaos Power to maintain the golden sword blade, not allowing it to collapse. Under the immense pressure, cracks began to appear on his body, and blood seeped out, staining his clothes red. But in his eyes, a resolute light flickered; he could not lose, absolutely could not lose!

The Tianzhu Sword Spirit also sensed Su Han's determination and will, and a trace of admiration actually rose within it. It had lived for tens of thousands of years and had seen countless Sword Cultivators, but this was the first time it had seen someone like Su Han, who would not hesitate to burn his own life to protect the Cultivation World.

"Enough." The voice of the Tianzhu Sword Spirit came from the black sword blade, carrying a trace of exhaustion and gratification. "You have passed the test; I recognize your sword Dao."

The black sword blade slowly dissipated, and the Tianzhu Sword returned to its original state, hovering in the air. Seeing this, Su Han also retracted the golden sword blade, his body going limp, and he nearly collapsed to the ground. Fairy Yuehua rushed over to support Su Han, her eyes filled with heartache and worry.

"Su Han, are you alright?" Fairy Yuehua asked, her voice trembling slightly.

Su Han shook his head and said: "I am fine, Junior Martial Uncle, do not worry." He turned his head, looked at the Tianzhu Sword Spirit, cupped his hands, and said: "Thank you, Senior Sword Spirit, for showing mercy."

The figure of the Tianzhu Sword Spirit drifted out from the Tianzhu Sword, looked at Su Han, and said: "It was not showing mercy, but rather that your sword Dao has truly gained my recognition. Your Chaos Sword Technique contains the tolerance and creation of Chaos Power, which, while completely different from the destruction Dao of my Tianzhu Sword Technique, each has its own merits. That you could persist until now while your strength was far inferior to mine has already proven your sword Dao cultivation and will. This fragment is yours."

The Tianzhu Sword Spirit reached out, and a black bead flew from its hand. Inside the bead, a black fragment was sealed—it was the fourth fragment of the Sealing Technique. The bead flew in front of Su Han and landed slowly.

Su Han took the bead, opened the Seal, and took out the black fragment inside, his heart filled with excitement. The fourth fragment was finally in his hands!

"Thank you, Senior Sword Spirit." Su Han said sincerely.

The Tianzhu Sword Spirit shook its head and said: "Do not thank me; this is the result of your own hard work. Human, your future is limitless. I hope you will continue to strive, collect the final fragment, and reinforce the Seal of the Nether Cold Abyss. Go now, time is running out. The final fragment is in the Xuanbing Valley; the guardian there is stronger than I am, so you must be careful."

Su Han nodded and, together with Fairy Yuehua, walked toward the exit of the Ten Thousand Sword Secret Realm. Before leaving, he looked back at the Tianzhu Sword Spirit and thought to himself: "Senior Sword Spirit, rest assured, I will definitely collect the final fragment and reinforce the Seal; I will not let you down."

Walking out of the Ten Thousand Sword Secret Realm, Master Wanjian was waiting outside. Seeing Su Han and Fairy Yuehua come out safely, and having obtained the fragment, a gratified smile appeared on Master Wanjian's face as he said: "Young Friend Su Han, Fairy Yuehua, congratulations on passing the test and obtaining the fourth fragment. Next, you must go to the Xuanbing Valley to search for the final fragment."

Su Han nodded and asked: "Master Wanjian, where is the Xuanbing Valley? What is the guardian of the final fragment?" (End of chapter)
