Chapter 746: Nineteenth Sword Form
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
This sword was none other than Qin Mu’s first form of the Calamity Sword, Opening Calamity Sword. This was his strongest sword skill.
The speed of the sword pellet spun faster and faster. This sword pellet was a spirit weapon he had refined not long ago. The sword pellet spun at an astonis.h.i.+ng speed and flew close to the sea surface. Countless fine swords leaped out from the sword pellet, and the tip of the swords were all pointing at Celestial Venerable Hao.
Behind the sword pellet, Qin Mu was exploding with full force and rus.h.i.+ng ahead!
His magic power poured into the sword pellet and the vital qi between his flying swords connected. The swords presented countless runes that weaved and changed continuously. The runes were like sparks as they leaped from flying sword to flying sword.
The positions of the flying swords also continuously changed, and they were like fish in the sea. The flying swords were silver-colored fish that shuttled up and down, unleas.h.i.+ng the charm of his sword skills perfectly.
In the next instant, countless flying swords seemed to be one as the runes and vital qi exhibited incomparable agility and flexibility.
The swords sprinting on the sea surface transformed into a gorgeous flowing light, and that was the flying swords transforming to display the most basic eighteenth sword form perfectly!
Looking from afar, this was a flying sword that had an astonis.h.i.+ng length. It was a very simple sword move, and that was a stab.
Looking at it in detail, countless transformations were hidden in this simple move.
This was the first time he had executed this sword move so perfectly since he created the Calamity Sword.
Yet the s.p.a.ce in that instant suddenly become sticky and dense. s.p.a.ce originally had no resistance; the resistance was from the air itself. Yet, in this instance, there seemed to be a kind of indescribable power in the s.p.a.ce which caused his sword skill to encounter extreme resistance.
Qin Mu exerted his force to stab forward, and his Opening Calamity Sword also stabbed forward easily like it was slicing bamboo. The tip of the sword was closing in on Celestial Venerable Hao!
Yet Qin Mu felt that the resistance was also increasing sharply.
This kind of power wasn’t purely the power of divine art. It seemed to be the pressure from an extraordinary rule.
Qin Mu had encountered this kind of pressure when he had entered the Southern Heavenly Gate of Bullfighting World. The pressure from the Southern Heavenly Gate came from all directions, and it affected all areas of his corporeal body and primordial spirit.
It was even affecting his Opening Calamity Sword!
It was Qin Mu’s first time encountering an instance where his sword path divine art was being suppressed!
The sword tip of Opening Calamity Sword was still stabbing forward, but its speed was becoming slower and slower. When it came to the face of Celestial Venerable Hao, the speed of the sword light had already become as slow as the crawling of a snail.
And at this moment, sunlight soared out from Celestial Venerable Hao’s back. There were thousands of rays gathering from all directions.
That wasn’t Celestial Venerable Hao’s mother descending personally; it was just her projection.
Her true body should have still been in the celestial heavens; she didn’t descend personally.
That was a G.o.ddess, and around her body, sunlight floated like sashes. They were extraordinary gorgeous.
Her body was graceful, and it was different from G.o.ddess of Heavenly Yin’s wild and boorish dressing. Her makeup was very exquisite.
Sunlight formed sashes to float around her, and other than being able to cover her body well, it also revealed her curves very well.
On the other hand, G.o.ddess of Heavenly Yin used a rough method of utilizing sunlight to block her private parts while revealing other parts of her body. G.o.ddess of Heavenly Yin also only had one or two accessories on her, while this G.o.ddess had numerous accessories on her. Furthermore, they were all very exquisite.
There were over a dozen accessories. There were hairpins, a jade ta.s.sel headdress, a necklace that had pearls like moons around her collarbone, a jade bracelet on her wrist, rings on her fingers, and pearls that were like little bells on her ankle.
Celestial Venerable Hao stood in front of his sword light and gave a sigh of relief. Qin Mu was still trying his best to advance, and he released the power of Opening Calamity. He was trying to break the suppression of that G.o.ddess.
Yet it was still difficult for this sword to advance forward. The sword only advanced an inch, and it reached the maximum of Qin Mu’s power.
Celestial Venerable Hao revealed a smile.
“Celestial Venerable Yu, you are impudent.”
The apparition of the G.o.ddess spoke, and her voice was loud and clear, penetrating deep into his heart. It had an apathetic tone to her calm and tranquil voice. “You have just come back from the dead, you should trembling with fear as if walking on thin ice. Have you forgotten that you were suppressed by a force before you died? The Slow Winding Pavilion, that’s where my sister stayed, don’t you know that’s my power?”
Qin Mu was still struggling to move forward, and he was full of strength. He had to kill Celestial Venerable Hao.
That G.o.ddess frowned. “Failing to appreciate my kindness. Hao’er, send him on his way. Don’t leave any trouble behind this time, destroy the corpse completely.”
Celestial Venerable Hao bowed and expressed his thanks. He walked around the sword light that was ten miles long.
The sword light was fixed in the air as if it were frozen.
Celestial Venerable Hao was finally at ease as he walked towards Qin Mu who was ten miles away. He said with a smile, “But mother, he isn’t Celestial Venerable Yu.”
That G.o.ddess was astonished and turned her head to look at Qin Mu, but she couldn’t see through Qin Mu’s disguise.
Celestial Venerable Hao felt very good. “He is Celestial Venerable Mu. The true Celestial Venerable Yu is probably still in the coffin and buried underground.”
“The Celestial Venerable Mu that His Majesty has just bestowed the t.i.tle on?”
That G.o.ddess nodded her head and said, “His divine art sure is different from the rest, it has all kinds of unimaginable marvel.”
Celestial Venerable Hao walked to the center of the ten miles sword light and said, “He used a strange and marvelous technique to change his face to look like Celestial Venerable Yu. Celestial Venerable Yu also pa.s.sed down the method to become a G.o.d to him before he died, allowing him to pose as Celestial Venerable Yu. However, what I want to know is if his original face is his true face or not? I suspect the face of Celestial Venerable Mu is also a fake face.”
That G.o.ddess revealed a smile. “My son is clever. If you kill him, he will have no choice but to reveal his true appearance. Mother has already suppressed him, feel free to attack…”
Right at this moment, the sword light suddenly shrunk!
The ten miles of sword light suddenly shrunk into a ball and stopped right in front of Celestial Venerable Hao!
Celestial Venerable Hao was stunned and felt his blood ran cold.
When the sword light suddenly shrunk. It made him feel as though he was being stared at by an incomparably fierce ancient G.o.d. He felt like he had fallen into a slaughterhouse!
Qin Mu was five miles away and was frozen in place by that G.o.ddess. He couldn’t move, and his teeth were crunching loudly as he clenched them. Blood was flowing from the corner of his lips.
The sword pellet moved!
Qin Mu suddenly gave off an astonis.h.i.+ng roar.
“Raising Calamity—”
That G.o.ddess was astonished and hurriedly increased her magic power to press down on the sword pellet.
Her power was incomparably huge and copious, so she instantly shackled the sword pellet. However, the strange thing was that even though the sword pellet was suppressed, flying swords could still fly out from the sword pellet.
That G.o.ddess suppressed once again, but she couldn’t suppress those twitching sword lights no matter what. Those sword light flew right at Celestial Venerable Hao!
Celestial Venerable Hao moved back quickly, and those sword lights skipped on a strange course. That was a sword skill that didn’t belong to any of the eighteen sword skills. Even the apparition of ancient G.o.ds couldn’t suppress it.
Pssh, pssh, pssh—
Celestial Venerable Hao’s body got pierced through by the sword light and b.l.o.o.d.y holes opened up in him.
The second form of Calamity Sword, Raising Calamity Sword!
After opening calamity, it was raising calamity—raising the calamity to kill the person!
Under the apparition of this ancient G.o.d, under the situation where he was completely helpless to fight back, Qin Mu finally comprehended the second chapter of the sword path. He had taken another step forward on this path of the sword!
Not only that, his sword skill had finally shown the nineteenth basic sword skill, pus.h.i.+ng the sword path of the world another step forward!
Blood sprayed out from Celestial Venerable Hao’s body, and the unpredictable course of the Raising Calamity Sword had broken through all suppression. The sword move was strange and unpredictable, so he couldn’t defend himself at all.
Even that G.o.ddess couldn’t do anything about those sword light, much less him.
In this era, not even the fourteen sword forms were created, much less the nineteenth sword form.
At the same time, the apparition of that G.o.ddess smacked towards Qin Mu. Since she couldn’t restrain those sword lights, she would just have to smack Qin Mu to death first. That would naturally stop Qin Mu’s attack!
Her palm force was incomparably fast. When her palm pressed down, the sea suddenly sank in down a radius of a hundred miles. A huge handprint appeared.
Also, at the same time, she saw another young man stepping on the sea surface to rush here. The surface of the sea exploded continuously under his feet.
That young man ran, and his hands moved up and down. Countless divine arts swirled around him, and he rushed towards Qin Mu as he toppled the mountains and overturned the seas!
“Too weak.”
That G.o.ddess disregarded him when a huge fist suddenly filled the entirety of heaven and earth. Before that young man’s divine art could reach, that fist collided with her palm with a loud bang.
The Jade Pool shook, and the petals of countless lotuses were shaken off. Huge old turtles carrying divine mountains on their backs were also thrown into midair, and they struggled helplessly.
“Demoness, Old Master Niu Ben is right here!”
With a shout, the old bull transformed into a bull-headed G.o.d with mean and lean muscles. He crashed into the surface of the sea.
The seawater churned and shattered the countless divine arts from Founding Emperor, throwing Qin Mu, Founding Emperor, and Celestial Venerable Hao into the sky and far away.
Founding Emperor moved his body in the air with difficulty. He leaped and caught up with Qin Mu, grabbing him into his embrace.
On the other side, a beam of sunlight swept Celestial Venerable Hao away and blocked that terrifying impact.
Celestial Venerable Hao was bleeding from all of his orifices. There were thousands of holes in his body, and they were wounds caused by the strange and unpredictable Raising Calamity Sword.
Those rays of sunlight tunneled into his body and sealed his wounds, stopping him from bleeding. The sunlight then sent him to the Jade Pavilion, which was far away.
Celestial Venerable Hao laid there motionlessly.
Founding Emperor carried Qin Mu and rushed out frantically. Even though Qin Mu, who was in his embrace, had all of his bones shattered, his flesh and blood were squirming continuously. The shattered bones were being discharged, and new bones were being formed.
‘Still not dead under that kind of pressure?’ Founding Emperor was astonished.
“My sword…” Qin Mu said weakly.
“Screw your sword!”
Founding Emperor was furious and scolded, “I told you not to create trouble. If I wasn’t perceptive and didn’t call Senior Niu Ben to come to look for you in the Jade Sea, you would have been long dead!”
Qin Mu revealed a smile. “You are now like a living person, I’m very happy…”
Founding Emperor was slightly stunned. He also revealed a smile. “Stop talking, heal yourself.”
Qin Mu opened up his palm and beckoned behind him. Countless fine sword lights flew over and collided to form a sword pellet that flew with them. The sword pellet closed in quickly.
“Let us go kill Celestial Venerable Hao.”
Qin Mu coughed up blood and said weakly, “He’s almost dead, I just need to stab him once more…”
“Compared to him, I feel you should be more worried about our lives.”
Founding Emperor sighed and saw more and more half-G.o.ds in the surroundings. He said with a soft voice, “You don’t have to kill him. I will personally end his life in the future to take revenge for Celestial Venerable Yu. Now, I’m just worried about how we can escape.”
Qin Mu suddenly shed a tear and turned his head over. He thought to himself, ‘Old ancestor, you didn’t manage to… I don’t even know if you are still alive… I once thought that you should fight fiercely and even die on the battlefield. However, I hope you are alive in Carefree Village even more now…’
