Chapter 754: One Sword is 10,000 Swords
Translator: Sparrow Translations Editor: Sparrow Translations
The disciples were shocked by what they saw.
Fang Zhengzhi’s killing desire was so intense that it almost materialized into sea waves.
Furthermore, he had killed 2 disciples and severely injured 10 more with a single strike.
The smell and sight of blood mixed together with Fang Zhengzhi’s killing desire, turned the 1000 Herb Hall, which always smelled like herbs, into a living h.e.l.l.
“This fellow… Is so strong! Is he really only at Rebirth State?”
“How did he knock master out?”
“Stop him! We can’t let him leave!”
The disciples of Yin Yang Hall subconsciously stepped back after sensing the vast killing desire, but it was only a single step.
Even if they were shocked by what they saw, even if Fang Zhengzhi’s killing desire was so intense, they couldn’t just watch him take Dao Hun away.
Fang Zhengzhi knew that it wouldn’t be easy to get out.
However, he didn’t have a choice.
Now that he had already subdued Dao Hun, how could he give up? The only choice he had was to put his life on the line and fight his way out.
“Kill him!”
“Die!”
As Fang Zhengzhi moved towards the disciples of Yin Yang Hall, they charged towards him instead of retreating again.
Countless sword radiances lit up the 1000 Herb Hall and came straight for Fang Zhengzhi.
“Should I take them head-on?”
Fang Zhengzhi was arrogant, but he wasn’t that dumb. Facing them head-on was the stupidest decision one could make.
Moreover, he was carrying Dao Hun.
As soon as the sword radiances shot towards him, a sky-blue light appeared before Fang Zhengzhi. It was Heaven Dao.
“Boom!”
“Crack!”
“Ah…”
Chaos ensued. There were the sounds of sword radiances slas.h.i.+ng the floor, sounds of bones breaking, and also heart-rending cries.
Since Fang Zhengzhi dodged the attacks with Heaven Dao, the disciples standing around him became sacrificial lambs.
This was a chaotic battle…
However, at the center of the chaos, there was only Fang Zhengzhi.
“Slas.h.!.+” A purple and red sword radiance suddenly appeared before the countless disciples. They were also attacked by a black flame at the same time.
It was a horrifying scene.
Blood gushed into the air as many disciples collapsed into the pool of blood, screaming in pain. Their eyes were wide open from shock, because Fang Zhengzhi’s attack was too fast and too ruthless.
Fang Zhengzhi kept evading and counterattacking. He was creating a pool of blood with every sword.
On the other hand, the disciples of Yin Yang Hall had to look out for his sudden appearance while carefully avoiding injuring their fellow disciples.
There was too little s.p.a.ce in 1000 Herb Hall.
It was so small that the disciples couldn’t dodge Fang Zhengzhi’s attack even if they saw it coming. They had nowhere to go.
Several elders stared at Fang Zhengzhi angrily, but they were helpless.
This was because they couldn’t unleash any powerful attacks.
After all… There were too many people in 1000 Herb Hall!
Apart from Fang Zhengzhi, the rest were all disciples of Yin Yang Hall.
Furthermore, Fang Zhengzhi mastered the Heaven Dao, so it was almost impossible to take him down with a single move.
“He’s doing this on purpose!”
“His shamelessness knows no boundaries!”
“How could he use us as for protection!”
After Fang Zhengzhi landed three attacks continuously, the disciples finally discovered, to their horror, that there more people dropping onto the ground. However, more disciples were entering 1000 Herb Hall.
This was indeed unfair fight since they outnumbered Fang Zhengzhi completely. However, since they were in 1000 Herb Hall, their advantage in numbers seemed to have turned into a disadvantage.
The reason for that… Was because Fang Zhengzhi mastered the Heaven Dao!
“Heavenly Descent!” Nine sky-blue beams appeared on the ceiling.
“Rumble!”
“Rumble!”
“…”
The noise was restless.
Shock waves and sword Qi seethed around the entire 1000 Herb Hall. With every scream, more blood splashed into the air.
This was a one-sided slaughter although Fang Zhengzhi was fighting all of them by himself.
The disciples and elders of Yin Yang Hall couldn’t believe what was happening, but the truth was that they couldn’t even touch Fang Zhengzhi, but he could kill them easily.
Fang Zhengzhi didn’t even have to look before he swung his sword, he could kill a bunch of disciples regardless. This was because there was no room in 1000 Herb Hall for the disciples to dodge his attacks.
“Move! Get out of 1000 Herb Hall!” An elder finally spoke. It was a tough decision, because it meant that Fang Zhengzhi could walk out of 1000 Herb Hall.
However, he had to bite the bullet.
“Retreat to the entrance!” Another elder spoke up as well. He also knew that they shouldn’t continue the battle in 1000 Herb Hall.
“Retreat!”
“Hurry up!”
“Stop coming in!”
The disciples hastily reacted to the elders’ commands. They started falling back towards the entrance of 1000 Herb Hall.
“Retreat?” Traceless Sword was vibrating softly in Fang Zhengzhi’s hand, he wouldn’t let them leave the hall.
Once that happened, he would be entrapped in 1000 Herb Hall. There would be countless disciples and elders of Yin Yang Hall waiting for him outside.
Therefore, he needed to get out of the hall before they could.
That… Was his only chance of survival.
“Roar!” A purple dragon roared and turned into a twisted sword radiance in the air. It was coming for the disciples.
“Hurry up and get out of the way!”
“No!”
The disciples were extremely frightened by the sword radiance, because they knew how powerful it was.
“Don’t even think about it!”
A person appeared before the sword radiance.
He was a white-haired old man who wore a black and white long robe. A black and white sword shone chillingly in his hand.
His black and white sword collided against the twisted purple sword radiance without any hesitation.
“10,000 Phenomenon!” With that, many spots of light appeared on the black and white sword. The light spots soon expanded and turned into different forms. There were flowers, gra.s.s, river, mountains, and even different types of beasts.
“Boom!”
The purple sword radiance clashed against the countless different light spots. After which, a shock wave was unleashed into the surrounding area.
“Ah!”
“Ah….”
There were many pitiful cries, because there were many tiny twisted purple radiances hidden in the shock wave. This was ‘Million Sword Ill.u.s.tration’, the ultimate martial arts technique of Divine Lord Constabulary that was only taught to its heirs.
‘Dao would give rise to one. One would become two, two becomes three, and it would keep going on!’
During the last 15 days, Fang Zhengzhi knew that he would come to Yin Yang Hall eventually, so apart from healing, he was also thinking.
Since different Daos could be combined, could sword techniques be combined as well?
Fang Zhengzhi went ahead with this idea, because he always did whatever he wanted to do.
He didn’t let anything hold him back.
Although this was a ludicrous idea, but the current Dragon Slayer Slash was actually nothing like before.
A single sword turned into 10,000 swords!
“Crack!” The black and white sword flew into the air, it was obviously broken.
The old man was even sent cras.h.i.+ng into a bunch of disciples, spurting out a mouthful of blood.
“Pfftttt!” His blood splashed out.
The disciples were stunned by what they just saw. When they looked towards the person wearing a blue long robe again, a s.h.i.+ver ran up their spines.
They all knew that Fang Zhengzhi had killed 5 Sages beneath Heaven Dao Pavilion’s mountain, including Yin Yang Hall’s ninth elder, s.h.i.+ Fan.
However, hearing about it was different from actually seeing it.
“The eighth elder…”
“How did he break the eighth elder’s sword with a single strike?!”
“How is this possible?”
“Is he a demon?”
The disciples couldn’t believe what had just happened. However, that was the harsh reality. Fang Zhengzhi’s strength had far exceeded their expectations.
While they were stunned, a person bolted towards the entrance of 1000 Herb Hall. He was fast as lightning.
He was so fast that more than half of the disciples didn’t react in time.
Only now did they understand why Fang Zhengzhi could become so famous after the battle at the foot of Heaven Dao Pavilion’s mountain, but they couldn’t!
Shameless?
That was true. Fang Zhengzhi was shameless as he took advantage of the tiny s.p.a.ce in 1000 Herb Hall and the disciples’ fear of hurting each other.
However, putting his shamelessness aside… He was powerful. In fact, he was extremely overpowering.
They finally understood the terror of a man who was so frightening powerful, yet without any moral boundaries.
“Follow him!”
“Don’t let him escape!”
“Stop him!”
A few elders and stronger disciples managed to react before Fang Zhengzhi went out of the hall.
“I’ll kill anyone who gets in my way!” Fang Zhengzhi couldn’t care less anymore. Since he was already near the entrance, he couldn’t possibly get back into the hall.
His sword came down.
The two disciples standing at the entrance went down without a sound.
Fang Zhengzhi then stepped on one of the disciples’ head and flew out of the 1000 Herb Hall.
The sun had already risen.
It wasn’t too hot, but the sunlight was dazzling.
Well, apart from the sun, he also saw a ma.s.sive group of people. Countless disciples of Yin Yang Hall were crowding outside 1000 Herb Hall.
Fang Zhengzhi trembled when he realized that there were several hundred disciples in front of him.
“Why are there so many people?”
Fang Zhengzhi wasn’t afraid, but he knew that he couldn’t possibly go against the entire Yin Yang Hall alone.
“He came out?!”
“That’s… our master?!”
“Did he knock our master out? Did he even manage to get out of 1000 Herb Hall while carrying our master?”
The disciples outside 1000 Herb Hall knew about the ruckus inside the hall, but they were still shocked to see Fang Zhengzhi rus.h.i.+ng out of the hall with Dao Hun’s on his shoulder. After all, this was beyond their wildest thoughts.
“Get out of my way!”
“Fang Zhengzhi, you aren’t going anywhere!”
Two people charged out of the hall as well and attacked Fang Zhengzhi right away.
“Boom!” The ground cracked.
However, there was a trace of a sky-blue light left on the ground. A moment later, the light appeared amidst the crowd.
“Is that Heaven Dao, one of the Six Rebirth Dao Techniques?!”
“How did he manage to evade both the fifth and sixth elders’ attacks?”
“This fellow is only at Rebirth State… If… If he really becomes a Sage, how powerful would he become? Is anyone capable of beating him at that point in time?”
The disciples felt a chill up their spines.
A man who was only at Rebirth State, had managed to sneak into Yin Yang Hall, knocked the Hallmaster out in 1000 Herb Hall, and even successfully got out of 1000 Herb Hall despite being surrounded by countless disciples.
This battle alone was enough to change Fang Zhengzhi’s reputation! Even if he was about to die, no one dared to underestimate him!
Even if he was going to die, his accomplishments would never be surpa.s.sed by anyone in the Holy Region. The feats that he achieved had completely shattered everyone’s perception of normality.
“Fang Zhengzhi, you can’t escape! You’re inside Yin Yang Hall, so even if you can get out of 1000 Herb Hall, you can’t leave Yin Yang Hall! Surrender now!” The fifth elder’s emotion was complicated. There was hatred, anger, but there was also fear, which rose from the bottom of his heart.
