Chapter 80

"Swirling Dragon Sword!"

Like a dragon in motion, it darted towards Ling Dao. Tie Youjian was not only skilled in defense but also had his own understanding of offensive techniques. His sword was incomparably faster than those of the other three True Qi Realm late-stage martial artists.

From the beginning of the battle between the three True Qi Realm late-stage martial artists and Ling Dao, Tie Youjian's eyes had never left Ling Dao. He was looking for a weakness, a flaw that would allow him to kill Ling Dao with a single strike. Now, he felt that he had finally waited for this moment.

Originally, to deal with a mere True Qi Realm junior, Tie Youjian had never considered an ambush. However, Ling Dao's displayed combat strength greatly surprised him. Even in a direct confrontation, Tie Youjian had no absolute confidence in killing Ling Dao. If Ling Dao decided to escape, he might not be able to stop him.

The elders had sent them four brothers here not to watch a show but to kill Ling Dao. If Ling Dao returned to the Sky Splitting Sword Sect alive, they would surely be punished and lose face.

"Your sword is too slow!"

To the other three True Qi Realm late-stage martial artists, Tie Youjian's sword speed was indeed fast. Unfortunately, for Ling Dao, it was nothing. Ling Dao had long noticed Tie Youjian and naturally remained vigilant.

The two swords collided with a loud metallic clang. Tie Youjian's fine steel sword developed a notch. Fine steel swords naturally could not compare to inferior-grade sword artifacts, and Tie Youjian's weapon was just a fine steel sword. For a tenth-grade force, inferior-grade sword artifacts were still extremely rare.

A bolt of lightning flashed, and the Swirling Dragon was completely paralyzed. Tie Youjian felt a tingling sensation in his arms, not only because of Ling Dao's overwhelming strength but also because Ling Dao's sword technique itself contained the power of lightning.

Extremely talented martial artists could, at the True Qi Realm, imbue their sword techniques with the power of wind, water, fire, and so on. However, Ling Dao was different. He had already grasped a thread of the primal power of lightning. Not to mention True Qi Realm martial artists, even Soaring Sky Realm martial artists could not achieve this, let alone the sect master of the Sky Splitting Sword Sect.

If the sect master of the Sky Splitting Sword Sect could grasp a thread of the primal power of lightning, he could break through to the next realm, allowing the Sky Splitting Sword Sect to advance to a ninth-grade force. Unfortunately, primal power was not so easily grasped. Over the years, none of the sect masters of the Sky Splitting Sword Sect, Black Tortoise Sword Sect, and True Martial Sword Sect had broken through.

"Form the array! Black Tortoise Four Symbols!"

Tie Youjian roared, and the other three True Qi Realm late-stage martial artists rushed over. The Black Tortoise Four Symbols array, formed by exactly four people, could enhance their attack and defense, boosting their overall strength.

The four brothers seemed to transform into a giant turtle, with four long swords stabbing at Ling Dao from different directions. After deploying the Black Tortoise Four Symbols array, an invisible net connected their forces.

"Boy, die!"

Tie Youjian sneered, his sword speed increasing, and his strength becoming terrifying. Even against a peak True Qi Realm martial artist, he felt he had an absolute advantage. Ling Dao's realm was different from what the elders had told them, but both early and mid-True Qi Realm were considered extremely weak.

"You are too naive. This level of strength is not enough to impress me!"

The four disciples of the Black Tortoise Sword Sect had decided to kill him and take his life. Ling Dao held nothing back, roaring and unleashing his strongest power. His sword technique changed, transforming into silver lightning.

"Lightning Shadow Sword!"

In an instant, Ling Dao swung his sword repeatedly, each strike containing a faint trace of the primal power of lightning. Even this faint power was extremely dangerous to True Qi Realm martial artists, who theoretically could not grasp any primal power.

The Blazing Sun Sword seemed to have disappeared, appearing each time to cause a change in the heavens and earth. Although the four Black Tortoise Sword Sect disciples' attacks and defenses were enhanced, they could not even touch Ling Dao's body after he deployed the Eight Steps of Star Chasing.

"Thud"

When Ling Dao's sword first appeared in their line of sight, it pierced through the chest of a True Qi Realm late-stage martial artist. With a shake of his hands, Ling Dao shattered the internal organs of the True Qi Realm late-stage martial artist, killing him instantly.

"What?"

"Dead?"

"You killed your junior brother?"

The other three Black Tortoise Sword Sect disciples were all shocked. They had set up the array, but not only did they not gain an advantage, Ling Dao had killed one of them with a single strike. Ling Dao's sword speed was extremely fast, and his movement speed was unimaginably swift.

"He was the first, and you are the second!"

In the next moment, Ling Dao appeared beside another True Qi Realm late-stage martial artist. The Blazing Sun Sword pierced through this True Qi Realm late-stage martial artist's head, blood and brain matter splattering. Ling Dao did not even look, pulling out the Blazing Sun Sword.

"Junior brother!"

"You are courting death!"

Tie Youjian and the last remaining True Qi Realm late-stage martial artist looked at Ling Dao with changed expressions. In the depths of their eyes, there was a trace of fear. Ling Dao's sword was too fast, so fast that they could not react at all.

"You are the third!"

The last True Qi Realm late-stage martial artist was just about to flee when Ling Dao caught up, splitting him in two with a single strike. Blood sprayed into the air, staining the ground red. Now, only two people remained in the field: Ling Dao and Tie Youjian.

"This boy is not human. I must escape quickly, or I will surely die here!"

At just the mid-True Qi Realm, to be this strong, Tie Youjian had never even heard of such a thing. At this moment, Tie Youjian was only afraid and only wanted to escape, having no courage to continue fighting Ling Dao.

Unfortunately, Tie Youjian did not know that fleeing from Ling Dao was extremely laughable. Ling Dao's speed with the Eight Steps of Star Chasing was incomparably faster. When Ling Dao deployed the Eight Steps of Star Chasing, it meant that one foot of Tie Youjian had already stepped into the gates of death.

"You came to kill me, so you should have been prepared to be killed by me. Fleeing? It is useless!"

The Blazing Sun Sword transformed into a bolt of lightning, piercing Tie Youjian's back with unparalleled speed. Tie Youjian, who had been fleeing frantically at an extremely fast speed, suddenly came to a stop. He widened his eyes and slowly lowered his head, seeing the blood-dripping tip of the sword at his chest!

In this battle, all four disciples of the Black Tortoise Sword Sect were killed!
