Unrestricted Dao Lord

BOOM.

Luo Feng was the first to draw his sword.

As he did, the Qi Blood in his body erupted completely.

The vast and mighty Qi Blood was like a furnace, and the temperature of the entire arena instantly soared.

This was the Qi Blood Furnace!

Furthermore, as one of the Ten Great Outer Disciples, Luo Feng’s Qi Blood was as high as two hundred eighty threads!

In terms of Qi Blood, he was not inferior even to the top-ranked Martial Artists among the Ten Great Outer Disciples.

Propelled by a terrifying two hundred eighty threads of Qi Blood, Luo Feng’s swordsmanship became a flash of crimson light, instantly thrusting toward Zhang Su.

Everyone held their breath, their focus absolute.

They stared intently at Luo Feng and Zhang Su.

Luo Feng’s strength was well known.

Two hundred eighty threads of Qi Blood, plus a top-tier swordsmanship: the Red Flame Sword Technique!

Previously, Luo Feng’s Red Flame Sword Technique had reached Great Success, and its power was already exceptionally terrifying.

But now, that crimson sword light seemed to fill everyone’s vision, as if it covered the entire arena.

It gave off the feeling of a single spark setting a prairie ablaze.

This was definitely not the Red Flame Sword Technique at Great Success.

Perfection!

This was the Red Flame Sword Technique at the Perfection Realm!

"Senior Brother Luo Feng actually cultivated the Red Flame Sword Technique to the Perfection Realm?"

"Senior Brother Luo Feng really knew how to hide his strength. He was probably saving it to deal with the higher-ranked Outer Disciples and advance his own standing. But now, faced with Zhang Su’s challenge, he has no choice but to go all out."

"As a top-tier swordsmanship, the Red Flame Sword is already terrifyingly powerful at Great Success, to say nothing of it now being at Perfection! Zhang Su is really unlucky to have challenged Senior Brother Luo Feng right after he achieved Perfection in his Red Flame Sword Technique."

"Against this terrifying Red Flame Sword, even if Zhang Su has an Unparalleled Swordsmanship, his chances of survival are slim..."

At this moment, Luo Feng fully displayed the prowess befitting one of the Ten Great Outer Disciples.

However, facing this sword strike, Zhang Su remained perfectly calm.

CLANG.

The next moment, Zhang Su also drew his sword.

The Cold Frost Sword was instantly unsheathed.

It seemed to carry a hint of frost with it.

However, Zhang Su’s Qi Blood was in no way inferior to Luo Feng’s.

BOOM.

Three hundred four threads of Qi Blood erupted in an instant.

Over three hundred threads of Qi Blood also formed a Qi Blood Furnace.

It was even stronger than Luo Feng’s.

The terrifying pressure from his Qi Blood instantly overwhelmed Luo Feng’s.

"What?"

"That kind of Qi Blood pressure... it’s definitely over three hundred threads!"

"Didn’t they say Zhang Su’s cultivation was average? How could he have cultivated over three hundred threads of Qi Blood?"

Around the arena, many Outer Disciples were shocked.

As for Luo Feng, a storm raged in his heart.

He was right across from Zhang Su, directly facing his terrifying Qi and Blood Power.

He could clearly feel his own Qi Blood being suppressed.

’He was one of the Ten Great Outer Disciples, for crying out loud.’

’Yet he was being suppressed in terms of Qi Blood?’

Only those ranked near the very top of the Ten Great Outer Disciples could suppress him with their Qi Blood.

’But Zhang Su?’

’He’d only been in the Guiyuan Sect for a mere year.’

’How could he have cultivated his Qi Blood to over three hundred threads?’

Luo Feng couldn’t understand it.

However, Zhang Su’s swordsmanship didn’t seem nearly as dazzling.

In fact, Luo Feng found it rather unremarkable.

This was because Zhang Su’s sword was just a simple, light thrust.

There was nothing extraordinary about it.

But that was the nature of the Light and Shadow Killing Sword at the Perfection Realm.

Silent and traceless, it could unleash the most ruthless killing blow.

As Luo Feng executed his magnificent Red Flame Sword Technique, Zhang Su’s Cold Frost Sword concealed itself within the attack, silently arriving right in front of him.

It completely pierced through the sky-filling crimson light of the sword.

By the time Luo Feng noticed, the Cold Frost Sword was inches away.

Luo Feng’s eyes widened.

An intense sense of crisis welled up within him.

’I’m going to die!’

’If I can’t block this strike, I’m really going to die!’

"Ah..."

Luo Feng used every ounce of his strength to twist his body aside.

Zhang Su’s Cold Frost Sword shifted just a fraction of an inch, stabbing directly into Luo Feng’s chest.

And then...

TING.

A soft chime rang out.

A hint of surprise flickered in Zhang Su’s eyes.

’The Cold Frost Sword couldn’t pierce Luo Feng’s body?’

’Inner Armor?’

Zhang Su immediately thought of a possibility.

Luo Feng was wearing a suit of Inner Armor.

This Inner Armor had saved Luo Feng’s life.

Otherwise, that strike would have pierced directly through his heart.

But so what if he had narrowly escaped death?

The sword in Zhang Su’s hand blurred.

SWISH SWISH SWISH.

In an instant, the air was filled with sword shadows.

The Nine Shadows Sword Technique—One Sword Nine Shadows!

Zhang Su’s Nine Shadows Sword Technique had also reached Perfection.

Therefore, when he executed it, it was effortless and perfectly natural.

Luo Feng’s heart tightened.

Of course, he knew of the Nine Shadows Sword Technique.

There was no distinction between real and illusory among these nine sword shadows.

Because every single one was real.

His longsword spun abruptly.

It formed a curtain of sword light, blocking his front.

CLANG CLANG CLANG.

The two Treasure Swords collided continuously.

Luo Feng’s sword curtain precisely blocked Zhang Su’s swordsmanship.

One sword, two swords, three swords...

All the way to the Ninth Sword!

Nine sword shadows, nine crisp clangs.

Luo Feng had actually blocked them all.

"Hahaha, I blocked them! I blocked them all! The Nine Shadows Sword Technique is strong, but it can’t do a thing to me..."

Luo Feng was triumphant, his heart filled with wild joy.

He was one of the Ten Great Outer Disciples; his reputation was not unearned.

However, Luo Feng found something strange.

Why was everyone below the arena staring wide-eyed, mouths agape with horrified expressions, yet utterly silent?

Everyone was completely quiet.

CLICK.

Zhang Su had even sheathed his sword and was now just looking at Luo Feng with a calm expression.

DRIP.

Drops of fresh blood fell from Luo Feng’s body onto the ground.

Luo Feng reached up and touched his neck.

His hand came away covered in crimson blood.

Under the terrified gazes of the crowd, blood began to gush from the deep gash on Luo Feng’s neck.

Luo Feng’s heart trembled.

’When was I hit? I clearly blocked all nine sword shadows...’

Luo Feng didn’t understand.

He could only clamp his hand tightly over the gash on his neck.

It was as if he wanted to stop the gushing blood.

But he couldn’t.

Blood still streamed from between his fingers.

He felt the strength draining from his entire body, bit by bit.

An icy feeling enveloped his heart.

Luo Feng’s mind was still trying to recall what had happened.

’When was he struck by the sword?’

THUD.

Luo Feng fell stiffly to the ground, his breathing ceased.

He was dead!

Luo Feng, one of the esteemed Ten Great Outer Disciples, had died by Zhang Su’s sword.

But even at the moment of his death, Luo Feng had no idea when he had been struck.

However, while Luo Feng was unclear, everyone below the arena had seen it perfectly.

Almost all of them had seen it.

Under the cover of the nine sky-filling sword shadows, Zhang Su had actually thrust out another sword strike.

That strike was silent and traceless, yet its speed was extreme.

Moreover, it had merged with the nine sword shadows, making it impossible to defend against.

While Luo Feng was still trying to block the nine sword shadows, he had, in fact, already been hit.

It was just that Luo Feng hadn’t known it at the time.

His entire focus had been on those nine sword shadows.

Silence!

The surroundings were deathly quiet!

This was a Life and Death Arena; life and death were of no consequence!

Zhang Su turned and walked down from the arena, one step at a time.

The crowd automatically parted to form a path.

Zhang Su led Chu Dachuan and the other two away from the arena without a backward glance.

BOOM.

Only after Zhang Su and his companions’ figures had vanished did the crowd erupt in an uproar.

"Senior Brother Luo Feng... is actually dead?"

"Even his Inner Armor couldn’t save Senior Brother Luo Feng..."

"That last strike was too terrifying. It silently merged with the nine sword shadows. Senior Brother Luo Feng could block the nine shadows, but he couldn’t block that horrifying final strike!"

"If I’m not mistaken, that was the Light and Shadow Killing Sword, right? It’s been a long time since anyone has mastered it. Many people don’t even know how terrifying it is. This swordsmanship kills without a trace—it’s utterly horrifying."

"Who said Zhang Su’s Light and Shadow Killing Sword was only at Great Success? This is clearly at Perfection..."

"An Unparalleled Swordsmanship at Perfection... Senior Brother Luo Feng’s death was not an injustice..."

At this moment, many people seemed to have only just realized how terrifying Zhang Su was.

Moreover, from this day forward, Zhang Su would officially ascend to the position of one of the Guiyuan Sect’s Ten Great Outer Disciples!

This wasn’t just a change in a single spot, nor was it just a change of a name.

This was equivalent to an earthquake shaking the Guiyuan Sect’s Outer Sect!
