2415 Fight Sword Saint, I Can, But Not Others, Answer Invitation

"Sword Saint of the Divine Sword Palace…"

Chu Kuangren looked at the Sword Saint. "I've heard of you. Judging from your sword intent, you are indeed stronger than that useless Palace Ruler."

The Divine Sword Palace was not exactly his friend. In fact, they had quite a conflict in the past.

That was why Chu Kuangren was not shy to mock the Sword Saint.

The Sword Saint responded with a frosty expression.

"Chu Kuangren, I have heard of you as well. You killed the Sword Demon of our Divine Sword Palace. You should know that the Sword Demon was as talented as me, and he could've reached my level in the future," he said coldly.

Since the Sword Saint, the Divine Sword Palace had not been able to produce powerful Monarchs. It was not easy for them to produce the Sword Demon, who could replicate the legendary Sword Saint, yet Chu Kuangren killed him.

The Sword Saint had no good impression of Chu Kuangren either.

"Sword Demon? Do you mean that guy I killed with one slash? Do you view him as your future, or are you as useless as him?"

"Nonsense!"

As the Sword Saint's gaze turned frosty, a surge of sword qi shot out from his eyes.

His gaze was as sharp as a blade, and the sword qi flooded the area instantly.

Chu Kuangren did not budge and countered with his own sword qi.

"Bang!"

The void trembled when the two sword qi clashed and shattered.

"Since we're both humans, you can walk away from this now," Chu Kuangren said with his hands behind his back.

"I'd like to see how strong the best swordsman of this era is!"

The Sword Saint refused to stand down.

The best swordsman of the era was not self-proclaimed. It was the title given to Chu Kuangren by the Great Hongmeng Universe.

He possessed the Human Ancestor's sword, killed the Void Ruler with it, and was far stronger than the Divine Sword Palace Ruler.

Hence, he was worthy of being the best swordsman of the era.

"Holy Spirit Sword Art!"

The Sword Saint raised his hand to gather the spiritual qi of the realm.

They formed multiple sword qi in front of him, and as they were shot, the essence of the Holy Spirit Sword Art was on full display.

Chu Kuangren pointed his sword hand sign forward and used the same Holy Spirit Sword Art.

"Clank! Clank!"

Two surges of sword qi clashed in the air like a storm wrecking havoc across the field.

Sword Twenty-one, Sword Twenty-two, Sword Twenty-three, Sword Twenty-four…

As their sword intents rose, the sword qi grew stronger and more condensed, from ten thousand to a million and above.

The sea of sword qi clashed fiercely.

It was undoubtedly the strongest and most magnificent sword battle in recent eras, and it should be recorded in books.

"If I kill you and take your fortune energy, the Divine Sword Palace will thrive!" the Sword Saint said coldly.

He pointed his sword hand sign forward, and his sword intent rose to another level.

Behind him, a sword-wielding avatar took form. The massive sword it wielded pierced the sky with its sword ray, and endless sword qi came from the blade.

"Sword Twenty-three!"

The Sword Saint growled and unleashed destructive sword qi at Chu Kuangren.

His Sword Twenty-three was much more powerful than the Divine Sword Palace Ruler's.

On top of that, his sword qi was fused into his avatar, and its power had far surpassed the original Sword Twenty-three.

The slash he released felt like it could cut heaven and earth in half.

Chu Kuangren stood still with his sword hand sign pointed upward.

Sword qi gushed out from his fingers and formed a massive sword shadow.

He, too, had cast the Sword Twenty-three!

When the two sword qi clashed, the stray energy spread across billions of kilometers, blasting a ferocious dust storm outward. It felt like the world was ending.

After the clash, the two of them stayed standing in the air.

"Your sword is indeed stronger than the Divine Sword Palace Ruler's. You're the third person, other than the Divine Sword Palace Forefather and I, who cultivates the Holy Spirit Sword Art to this extent," the Sword Said praised Chu Kuangren.

Despite being enemies, he felt a sense of camaraderie with Chu Kuangren.

"Third person? That's not good enough. I want to be the one and only in history!"

Chu Kuangren pointed his sword hand sign forward and unleashed his Sword Twenty-four!

The dazzling slash felt like it could cut through space, time, and universes, ripping everything in its way to shreds.

The Sword Saint reacted grimly to the sudden attack. He, too, countered with his sword hand sign, releasing his heightened sword intent.

He unleashed his own Sword Twenty-four!

Compared to Chu Kuangren's sharpness that could tear apart everything in existence, the Sword Saint's Sword Twenty-four carried a sense of creation amid the destruction.

His sword qi seemed to be endless.

The moment the two sword qi clashed, an even bigger explosion shook the realm.

The Monarchs in the area sensed the clash.

"Such a powerful sword qi! By the feel of it, Chu Kuangren is probably one of them, but who is he fighting?"

"This sword qi… It seems like that old man has awakened."

"Let's go and have a look."

"Chu Kuangren, I'm here to take your fortune energy!"

Multiple Monarchs dashed toward the scene of the clash.

When they arrived, they saw terrifying sword marks all over the place, deep enough that it formed a valley on its own.

The terrifying sword qi left the Monarchs speechless.

"It's terrifying!"

"Even though the attack of a swordsman is one of the greatest, this level of sword qi is beyond terrifying!"

Then, everyone looked toward the two figures standing in the air, where unparalleled sword intent clashed in the space between them.

"Of course, it's the two of them."

"Chu Kuangren and the Sword Saind. Only the two of them are strong enough to release such a terrifying sword qi!"

"Swoosh!"

A Celestial Divine Monarch went over to the Sword Saint.

He glared at Chu Kuangren with greed in his eyes. "Sword Saint, I'll help you. We can split his fortune energy once we kill him!"

However, right before he could attack, a sword qi was blasted at him.

"What?"

The sudden attack shocked the Celestial Divine Monarch, and he was blasted away with blood gushing from his mouth. After he crashed, he looked at the Sword Saint in disbelief.

It was the Sword Saint who attacked him.

"Sword Saint, are you out of your mind? What are you doing?" the Celestial Divine Monarch shouted.

The Sword Saint glared at him. "This is between us humans. No foreign tribe shall meddle with our business. Scram!"

Intense sword intent was locked onto the Celestial Divine Monarch, forcing him to retreat.

Those who wanted to use the Sword Saint's strength to fight Chu Kuangren were forced to stay idle and observe for now.

"Hmph. What a mood killer."

Sensing multiple Monarchs watching them from the dark, Sword Saint grunted and then suggested to Chu Kuangren, "Why don't we team up and deal with them first?"

"Oh? You want to team up with me?"

Chu Kuangren was slightly surprised.

The man was trying to kill him a moment ago, and now he suggested they teamed up?

"I do want to kill you and take your fortune energy, but I don't want others to meddle in it, especially the foreign tribes."

The Sword Saint's intention was clear.

As a fellow human, he could fight Chu Kuangren, but he would not allow the foreign tribes to meddle with his business.

"Interesting. In that case, I shall accept your invitation."

Chu Kuangren smiled before his gaze turned cold, and he activated the Infinity Domain to envelop the entire field, catching all the Monarchs inside.

"Damn it!"

The Monarchs who just arrived were shocked.
