205: Chapter 205: I concede defeat in this duel!

Single-character Flying Swords—even on the Great Wall of Sword Qi where Sword Cultivators are as numerous as clouds, only fourteen have been recorded in the archives over the past ten thousand years!

One could say the probability of a single-character Flying Sword appearing is only slightly higher than the birth of an Ascension Realm Great Sword Immortal!

Every Sword Cultivator who nurtures a single-character Flying Sword is bound to be a key focus of cultivation for the Great Wall of Sword Qi!

Let alone two Dao Protectors; even if another one or two were assigned, it would not be excessive!

As soon as Yang Simu's single-character Flying Sword appeared, it immediately reversed the disadvantage he was just in!

Linghu Yi, a Jade Purity Realm Sword Cultivator, possessed a Natal Flying Sword named Flowing Fire. Though its power was terrifying and its movements unpredictable...

...under the constant assault of the single-character Flying Sword, Mie, and its Natal Divine Abilities—Mie and Po—Linghu Yi could only control Flowing Fire to defend with all his might, having no chance to strike back at all!

The man narrowed his eyes, staring at Yang Simu not far away, his gaze more solemn than ever before.

Linghu Yi said in a deep voice, "Yang Simu, I admit I underestimated you."

"However, how long can you hold out while controlling two Natal Flying Swords at once?"

"Your Natal Flying Swords cannot break through my defense either!"

"You are only at the Nascent Soul Stage. If you want to compete with me in a battle of attrition, you will undoubtedly lose!"

Hearing this, Yang Simu grinned. "Senior, you still underestimate my Natal Flying Swords too much!"

"Mie, Devour!"

"What?" Before Linghu Yi could react, his heart sank suddenly, and a bad premonition instantly surged within him.

In the next moment, a terrifying suction force suddenly erupted from Yang Simu's single-character Flying Sword!

Instantly, the Sword Intent within a hundred-meter radius began to converge toward 'Mie' like a surging tide!

Even the Sword Intent released by Linghu Yi was being torn away!

Over eighty percent of the Sword Intent was devoured in an instant, and the dazzling Flowing Fire in the air immediately grew dim.

Linghu Yi's expression changed abruptly, and he hurriedly retracted his Sword Intent and Sword Qi, only able to maintain the flow of Sword Qi within three feet of his body.

As early as his first battle upon entering the Wilderness World, during a Sword Inquiry with a Golden Core Stage Sword Cultivator, Yang Simu had discovered that his second Natal Flying Sword could devour Sword Intent to improve its quality.

A single-character Flying Sword was already terrifying enough on its own; trying to further improve its quality was no small feat.

Conversely, once the quality of a single-character Flying Sword truly improved, its power would likely be immeasurable!

However, Yang Simu had previously suppressed 'Mie' from devouring other Sword Intent because he was worried he wouldn't be able to fully control this Natal Flying Sword.

Now that he was at the Nascent Soul Stage, he no longer had that concern for the time being and didn't need to be so cautious!

This place was the Great Wall of Sword Qi, a battlefield for Sword Cultivators for ten thousand years; both Sword Qi and Sword Intent were extremely dense here.

In an instant, hundreds of strands of Sword Intent, large and small, poured into this single-character Flying Sword, and its Aura skyrocketed accordingly!

For the quality improvement of 'Mie', these strands of Sword Intent were actually just the icing on the cake.

Of course, the purpose of this single-character Flying Sword devouring Sword Intent at this moment wasn't truly to improve its quality.

The next second, surging Sword Intent, carrying massive Sword Qi, spewed from the single-character Flying Sword in mid-air, pressing down toward Linghu Yi on the city wall!

"Boom! Boom!..."

Explosions rang out one after another!

Linghu Yi gritted his teeth and exerted all his strength, controlling his Natal Flying Sword, Flowing Fire, to create a wall of fire in front of him.

However, the surging Sword Intent and Sword Qi in the air seemed endless!

"Screech..."

Linghu Yi suddenly snapped to his senses; he had actually been forced back a step!

Before he could react, a crystal-clear Flying Sword had already appeared before his eyes, truly within arm's reach!

Linghu Yi instantly took another step back, but this time he immediately controlled Flowing Fire to turn and block!

"Clang!"

Yang Simu's first Natal Flying Sword, Wuju, instantly collided with Linghu Yi's Natal Flying Sword, Flowing Fire!

Linghu Yi's face changed drastically in an instant.

He had guarded against everything, yet he hadn't expected it to come to this!

In a flash, Linghu Yi was shocked to find that he could no longer control his own Natal Flying Sword!

Wuju—as the name suggests, all rules would be broken and controlled by Wuju!

For Natal Flying Swords of inferior quality, Wuju didn't even need to touch them to directly strip away the opponent's Natal Divine Ability and sever their connection with the Sword Cultivator master.

If the quality was high or the enemy Sword Cultivator was stronger, Wuju had to make physical contact.

Almost at the same time, the single-character Flying Sword, Mie, also broke through the fire wall and struck directly against 'Flowing Fire'!

With a crisp "ding," a tiny crack actually appeared on the surface of this Jade Purity Realm Sword Cultivator's Natal Flying Sword!

Linghu Yi immediately let out a muffled groan.

Seeing that paper-thin Flying Sword about to strike his Natal Flying Sword once more...

...his heart ached as if it were bleeding!

Linghu Yi couldn't care less about anything else and directly drew the sword at his waist, delivering a slash!

A blinding white Sword Qi instantly sliced through the sky, shattering the invisible space created by Wuju!

Yang Simu's two Natal Flying Swords were also directly knocked away by this Sword Qi!

A streak of Flowing Fire instantly darted out, returning to circle around Linghu Yi.

The Flowing Fire Flying Sword hummed and trembled in mid-air, as if it were weeping.

Without a moment's delay, Linghu Yi retracted his Natal Flying Sword into his acupoint to nurture it.

At the same time, he sheathed his sword.

Linghu Yi looked up slightly at Yang Simu not far away. After a brief silence, he gritted his teeth and said unwillingly, "I broke the rules just now."

"In this Sword Inquiry, I concede!"

As soon as these words were spoken, an uproar broke out among the Sword Cultivators atop the Great Wall of Sword Qi!

Yang Simu Previously defeated Pang Yuanji， No one was particularly surprised..

It was only after he defeated Nie Yuanliang, who was also at the Nascent Soul Stage, with a single strike that the crowd was shaken.

And then, Yang Simu had summoned a single-character Flying Sword and ultimately forced a Jade Purity Realm Sword Cultivator to take the initiative to concede!

After these three Sword Inquiries, the entire Great Wall of Sword Qi's perception of Yang Simu had been completely overturned!

Although it must be said that in this final Sword Inquiry, if both sides had gone all out, Linghu Yi, as a Jade Purity Realm expert, would have had a 99% chance of defeating Yang Simu!

However, the agreement had been proposed by Linghu Yi, and it was also he who chose to concede.

Moreover, being able to force an Upper Five Realms Sword Cultivator to concede was enough to make anyone look at him with high regard, regardless of the circumstances!

For example, if someone outdrank that bastard A Liang at a table, the latter would also give them a thumbs up!

Of course, the prerequisite was being able to sit at the same table as A Liang to drink.

At this moment, the gazes of the many Sword Cultivators directed at Yang Simu no longer held any of the initial disdain!

Ruan Xiu, Li Yao, and the three Mural City Goddesses were also standing atop the city wall at this moment.

Li Yao's beautiful large eyes widened slightly, filled with disbelief.

Miss Xiuxiu narrowed her eyes with a tender smile, her beautiful eyes full of longing.

The three Goddesses—Xingyu, Qilu, and Guanyan—looked at the sword-bearing man before them, and it was as if they were seeing that scene from ten thousand years ago once again.

Just then, Yang Simu retracted his two Natal Flying Swords and walked slowly toward Linghu Yi.

"Tomorrow is National Day; I wish everyone a happy holiday in advance."

"There should be two chapters tomorrow, then one after that. After National Day, I will try to resume the daily update of two chapters, or at least one."
