A Failure’s hopeful Journey - Chapter 316: Sword God.
You Xi Wang was cutting at the bull demon with his sword and his pace was getting faster and faster. he did not have any intention of backing down. The bull demon on the other side was also a very talented warrior. he was able to hold on for so long under the onslaught of the origami sword, this showcased his skills completely.
You Xi Wang nodded and took a step back. He said, “You have been the first person who has taken on my sword cuts for so long but be careful, I will not be holding back anymore. You have gained my respect. You are worthy to see my full capabilities.”
You Xi Wang did not wait to hear what the other party would like to respond with and a golden glint covered his sword. The change was so drastic that the whole region was filled with sword aura.
You Zhichi said, “Everyone, take ten steps back and lower your heads.” the people all followed her instructions without delay. They were all aware of the strong aura radiated towards them. They did not wish to die.
Taking steps back and bowing their heads low was a way to show their subjugative posture to the sword spirit and prevent it from taking them all as an enemy and attacking them. This method worked, the people were not harmed by the sword aura.
After a few seconds when they raised their heads, they found that You Xi Wang was holding a black and golden sword, which radiated a strong sword aura. Just by looking at the sword, they sensed something prickly in their eyes.
Yuki said, “Did he just release his word intent? Why does it feel different than before?”
You Zhichi said, “This is his real sword intent. What you all witnessed earlier was the intent of the sword spirit. It did not have his spirit energy infused with it. How about? Your husband sure is a mighty guy, no? Yuki-chan.” she teased the girl.
You Zhichi was very happy at this development. She had always wanted to see her brother unleashing his whole potential and show the people how great a warrior he was. Until now she had only seen him do this once when he faced the council elder with his martial spirit. However, this time was different. He unleashed a different type of potential.
The bull demon saw this and he wanted to say something but before he could say anything You Xi Wang moved. His body was standing at the same place but around him, thousands of spirit energy words formed and floated in the void. All were aimed at the build demon.
The boy said in a low voice, “Sword of the gods, first move, a thousand draws.”
The next moment the spirit swords all flicked and attacked the bull demon. They were barely visible. The people on the sidelines were shivering in both fright and awe when they saw this move. They all had revered You Xi Wang for his strength but they finally discovered that this boy was a monster of a different level altogether and they could never attain what he achieved in their lives. However, this also ignited the fighting spirits in their hearts. They all wished to be better than their current self.
The sword practitioners all found that the swords they held onto were shivering. They were radiating with the sword intent released by You Xi Wang.
…
A thousand swords attacked the bull demon but he was not so easily outdone. He stabbed the tip of his epee in the ground and hide behind it. The next he heard was a continuous tinkle. After a few hundreds of tinks, he sensed a strong pain in his shoulder and found that a spirit sword has punctured his epee and lodged inside his flesh. The pain was not too severe but the dark energy inside his body was in a mess.
He suddenly discovered the horror of the young man in front of him. He mumbled, “The holy spirit energy. How can there be someone to master this energy.” his eyes were filled with disbelief.
You Xi Wang saw that the impact of the attack was not as damaging as he wanted it to be and said, “Sword of the gods, second move, elemental slash.”
Six swords condensed behind his head. These swords were all in different colors and as the name of this move indicated they were elemental swords. A thousand swords earlier were all too standard but these swords had a trace of elementary rules within them.
These swords represented lightning, fire, water, wind, earth, and holy element combined with the five primary elements. You Xi Wang flicked his sword a little and the next moment six swords vanished.
The wind element sword landed on the epee shield first and cut through it like a stone through a paper window. The epee was made with high-quality material was not very easy to get through, yet the wind sword got through it with ease. The next one was the earth sword, passing through the previous hole in the epee, it hit Yhal Ghol.
The impact was strong and it made him stagger back. He still held onto his epee, and decided to counter the incoming attack, but was he given the time to? No. The Fire element sword landed on his body next, covering him in a cocoon of flames. Yhal Ghol screamed in pain.
The flame dispersed after a few seconds, the demon prince was panting with his skin giving off a burnt smell and smoke. However, his body was already healing, thanks to the strong healing ability of the demons. As he was catching his breath the water sword struck him, it was as if You Xi Wang took mercy on him, but what happened next made the people shiver.
The lightning element sword hit Yhal Ghol straight in the chest and the lightning covered his wet body. The demon prince let out a shocking wail in pain. CHEM 101, water is a good conductor of electricity.
If the fire burned him on the outside, the lightning burned his insides, and before his wail could finish, a golden sword pierced his heart, and along with it the demonic core inside his body. The scene turned silent.
