Chapter 503: Convinced Wholeheartedly
Translator: Sparrow Translations Editor: Sparrow Translations
Inside the body of the virtual entity of the Supreme Radiance Swordmaster, there was a flashing light that was hidden.
That flashing light was bright sometimes, but dim at other times. In that instant, there were many changes. It contained a powerful sword mind.
And as the virtual entity of the Supreme Radiance Swordmaster flew and attacked Lin Feng, that flashing light brightened and converted into a flashing magic treasure that was shaped like a sword.
The blade of this flying sword kept on flashing with radiance, revealing the figure of a person. It was an elder who had long, white hair. He wore a crown and was decked in ancient clothing. He seemed very imposing.
The eyes of the elder flashed with radiance. Using his finger, he underwent 60 transformations. Each of these transformations were an image.
It was the Instant Sword of Radiance, the magic treasure of the Sword of Radiance Sect that was in the metaplasia realm.
This sword was the accessory of the Grandmaster that started the Sword of Radiance Sect. It was cultivated into a magic treasure. Ever since the Sword of Radiance Sect was set up hundred thousand years ago, it had been cultivated by various elders until it reached the metaplasia realm.
Regardless whether it was the Spiritual Conference of Huanghai or the gathering at Tianzhe Peak, the Supreme Radiance Swordmaster did not bring the Instant Sword of Radiance along. This time, as he wanted to challenge Lin Feng, he did not hesitate to bring it.
The Supreme Radiance Swordmaster had already formed the virtual entity. With the Instant Sword of Radiance in his hands, he could summon its full powers and effect.
At this point, the sword and his body combined. The virtual entity of the Supreme Radiance Swordmaster and the Instant Sword of Radiance combined to form a single entity, consolidating to create a streak of extremely bright radiance that transcended space. Before an instant was even reached, it was already attacking Lin Feng right in front of him.
The Instant Sword of Radiance experienced the cultivation of powerful elders and the Instant Sword Teleportation Technique that it contained was extremely profound. It was birthed from the same source as the Supreme Radiance Swordmaster. As both parties combined, it was equivalent to the attack of 2 Immortal Soul Second Level supreme sword cultivators.
As the sword minds complemented each other, it created an even larger effect. The force unleashed was extreme and reached the limits of the Immortal Soul Second Level.
The Shaoshang Swordmaster had once repressed the Supreme Radiance Swordmaster during the gathering at Tianzhe Peak. But now, if he faced this sword without the Shaoshang Sword, there was no escape route for him.
And as Lin Feng faced this sword that reversed time, he was still very calm. He did not even move. Only the Taiji Diagram appeared on his forehead and started spinning.
As the Taiji Diagram spun, it seemed to open up a new world. As a radiance flashed, the Supreme Radiance Swordmaster and the Instant Sword of Radiance landed inside the Taiji Diagram on Lin Feng’s forehead.
As he entered the Taiji Diagram, the Supreme Radiance Swordmaster was a little dazed. In front of him, chaos spread and redefined the 4 images. When the Heavens and Earth opened, the Eight Trigrams bred lives and a new destiny appeared in front of him.
In front of him, the universe went various changes. Even with his miraculous Instant Sword of Radiance, he could do nothing in this world.
That Instant Sword Radiance had also lost its usefulness in this world.
As time passed, it was only just another form of concept in this new world.
"This person is very strong. He’s not someone I can defeat." Beside the Supreme Radiance Swordmaster, a white-haired elder that was not of a real entity but a figure appeared. He was the sword spirit of the Instant Sword of Radiance. In terms of seniority, he was much older than the Supreme Radiance Swordmaster.
As the Supreme Radiance Swordmaster heard the sword spirit, he nodded his head. "That’s right, I am not this guy’s match. Before the challenge, I already sensed it. But I will not back down from this challenge."
"But it seems like I am only courting my own humiliation as things stand." The Supreme Radiance Swordmaster continued to look proud, but did reveal a hint of regret.
The sword spirit did not utter a word beside him. As the sect-stabilizing treasure of the Sword of Radiance Sect that had experienced the passing of hundred thousands of years, he could not remain peaceful as he was about to be defeated.
Suddenly, Lin Feng’s voice resonated. He was as calm as before, "The way is right before you. Comrade, why do you hesitate?"
The Supreme Radiance Swordmaster did not speak. After a while, his expression turned normal again and he nodded his head, "Master Lin, you are right. Ever since I stepped foot on Mount Yujing, the result no longer mattered."
"I will like to thank Master Lin for your generosity. Any progress that he makes in the future can be credited to this defeat." The Supreme Radiance Swordmaster said. He was entirely convinced and was thanking Lin Feng sincerely. He was convinced wholeheartedly.
Lin Feng smiled, "Congratulations for what you have gleaned from this." The Taiji Diagram on his head spun and streak of flowing radiance was emitted from it. The radiance divided into two in space and landed on the ground. It revealed the Supreme Radiance Swordmaster and the appearance of the sword spirit of the Instant Sword of Radiance.
The Supreme Radiance Swordmaster and the sword spirit bowed towards Lin Feng, "We have to thank Master Lin for the guidance."
Lin Feng shrugged and said, "You don’t have to stand on ceremony."
He then looked outside the Grand Heavens Pavilion, "Oh, our disciples are also ending their fight soon."
After being released by Lin Feng’s Immortal Soul, the Supreme Radiance Swordmaster could sense the movements in the sword world that he created.
His challenge with Lin Feng had ended in an instant. Thus, when their battle ended, the one between Xiao Yan and Tao Yaoyao had only just started. But the both of them did not take it slowly.
The victor was determined by one move.
The both of them had the same thought. They decided the winner in one move. Xiao Yan was always someone who took his time, but after 1 year of holding it in, he decided to go straight in for the victory as he fought Tao Yaoyao.
In the sword world, a frightening, purplish-blue sparrow flew high and released a frightening aura. It seemed to want to destroy everything in the world. It was the Nefarious Spectral Primordial Fire. And the Nefarious Spectral Primordial Fire converted into a shape of a sparrow at this point. Besides its normal brutality and aura of dominance, there was also the power concepts of flexibility and speed now.
Lin Feng saw this and laughed in his heart, "Is that a crimson sparrow?"
Tao Yaoyao wanted to use the speed of the Instant Teleportation Technique to overcome Xiao Yan, but did not expect Xiao Yan’s Nefarious Spectral Primordial Fire to adopt a crimson sparrow shape. In terms of speed, it was not much slower than the Instant Sword Teleportation Technique, but it was much more destructive.
Xiao Yan caught hold of Tao Yaoyao’s sword radiance precisely and turned his counter-attack into a direct offense. Tao Yaoyao was in a disadvantaged position.
At this point, before the crimson sparrow, Tao Yaoyao propped her sword up. She wasn’t depressed but just sighed, "It seems like I can’t."
The shape of the crimson sparrow turned blurry and converted into a purplish-blue nefarious sea of fire. Within the sea of fire, a figure walked out of it. It was Xiao Yan.
Xiao Yan placed himself in the sea of fire, becoming seemingly evil and dominant. He was calm, "Do you still want to continue?"
Tao Yaoyao looked at Xiao Yan and sighed. She kept her sword and did not speak.
During that fight, Tao Yaoyao could feel her Aurous Core vibrating. It was on the verge of being crushed.
At that point, the sword world shook a little and was about to protect Tao Yaoyao.
This battle was won convincingly by Xiao Yan. She was decimated by one move of Xiao Yan.
As the Supreme Radiance Swordmaster and the Instant Sword of Radiance saw this image in the sword world, they both looked at each other and shook their heads slightly.
The Celestial Sect of Wonders was too powerful.
The Supreme Radiance Swordmaster turned to look at Lin Feng and thought to himself, "Was that black and white world the Immortal Soul Avatar of Lin Feng? What will his virtual entity and way of the virtual entity be like?"
Strictly speaking, he lost even worse than Tao Yaoyao. At least Tao Yaoyao was on the offense against Xiao Yan. Whereas as the Supreme Radiance Swordmaster attacked Lin Feng, Lin Feng did not even retaliate. He revealed a little of the aura of his Immortal Soul Avatar and opened the doors to the world, engulfing the Supreme Radiance Swordmaster and the Instant Sword of Radiance.
As he trapped the both of them in his Immortal Soul, he did not even attack. Anything the opponent do was futile.
His powers caused the Supreme Radiance Swordmaster and the Instant Sword of Radiance submit in defeat.
The sword spirit sighed and used his supernatural awareness to communicate with the Supreme Radiance Swordmaster, "During the gathering on Tianzhe Peak, no wonder this guy did not reveal his Immortal Soul Avatar that could destroy the 6 Mountains Celestial Sword Formation. With such powers, Mount Shu would have been trounced."
The Supreme Radiance Swordmaster nodded his head. He flipped his hand and retrieved something, passing it to Lin Feng, "This is the item you requested in exchange for the Heavens-Patching Vine."
It was a small pocket. Inside the pocket, there were many bright and transparent gravel.
When they parted on Tianzhe Peak, Lin Feng had interacted with the Supreme Radiance Swordmaster. He had explicitly stated what he wanted in exchange for the Heavens-Patching Vine. This time, the Supreme Radiance Swordmaster followed Tao Yaoyao to fulfil the promise. He also brought the thing over.
"Thank you, my friend." Lin Feng smiled and took over the gravel. The Supreme Radiance Swordmaster also removed the sword world. Both Xiao Yan and Tao Yaoyao exited it.
The Supreme Radiance Swordmaster looked at Xiao Yan and nodded slightly, "You are a bright talent. I await your bright future."
Xiao Yan looked at the Supreme Radiance Swordmaster with a surprised look. For someone like the Supreme Radiance Swordmaster to say this, it was equivalent to him admitting his loss with regards to the dispute between him and Murong Yanran.
On Xingyun Peak, the Supreme Radiance Swordmaster announced Murong Yanran as his Immediate Disciple after she lost. He wanted to teach her diligently and enable her to defeat Xiao Yan one day, so as to help the Sword of Radiance Sect regain their face.
Everyone present knew from the bottom of their hearts that both parties had formed a grudge with each other. And this grudge would continue.
And today, the words of the Supreme Radiance Swordmaster meant that he had given up his original plan and admitted that he was the failure.
"Defeating Tao Yaoyao should be one of the reasons, but…" Xiao Yan looked at Lin Feng, "…does this have anything to do with you and Master?"
