The forest was vast.
Qin Feng ran the moment he took the Buddha’s Relic.
But he had still underestimated the unreasonableness of the Chosen Ones. He didn’t even take a few steps forward before he was stopped by a young man dressed in black.
The young man before him wielded a black longsword in his hand, with remarkably resolute eyes. His demeanour was calm, and his slender physique resembled a glistening, sharp sword.
“It is the Young Master of the Renowned Sword Mountain Estate, ranked at the 53rd place, Yi Jian!”
The spectators were immediately excited. They didn’t anticipate Qin Feng’s encounter with Yi Jian.
The Renowned Sword Mountain Estate was an extremely influential force within the Yin Yue Imperial Dynasty. In the era when Sword Gods failed to emerge, they possessed the One Sword (Yi Jian), a once-in-a-millennium treasure that had granted them the crazed reputation of a sword that would last a thousand years.
But no one could deny the Renowned Sword Mountain Estate’s right to their fame. Thus, they were regarded as the sacred heaven that all aspiring swordsmen yearned for.
Especially the young master, Yi Jian, of this era. He was titled as a sword genius who appeared only once in a million years.
He had ascended to the First layer of the Dao realm at a mere eighteen years of age and had awakened the third level of Sword Intent. Rumour had it that he even possessed the Sky Sword Physique of the legends. Now, facing the future Sword God, Qin Feng, everyone was eager to witness what would happen.
“I seek your assistance in honing my sword!”
Yi Jian neither wasted any time in speaking nor cared whether or not Qin Feng was willing to battle. He immediately drew his longsword, transforming into a sword emperor. As if the sharp sword was embedded into the sky itself, the clear sound of his sword resonated throughout the forest.
“How strong!”
Qin Feng’s pupils constricted as he sensed the overwhelming strength of his opponent.
At the First layer of the Dao realm, Yi Jian possessed the third level of Sword Intent and the legendary Sky Sword Physique. He was undoubtedly the most formidable prodigy Qin Feng had met today.
But what made him feel strange was that such a terrifying prodigy was actually not a Chosen One. He hadn’t heard a squeak from the system.
Shua!
The fierce sound of approaching winds washed over him, accompanied by the melodious sound of Yi Jian’s sword.
The longsword in Yi Jian’s hands gleamed with a blinding light, and it carried the brilliant light with it as it surged toward Qin Feng with an astonishing speed, causing the sharp sound of breaking wind to ring out.
Qin Feng sidestepped, resembling a gentle breeze weaving from side to side.
“What a ghostly foot technique. It resembles the weaving of a gentle breeze, yet with the force of a raging hurricane!”
A hint of surprise flashed past Yi Jian’s eyes as his heels dug further into the ground. Accompanied by the explosive surge in his aura, he swept his longsword before him, creating a shockwave that resembled a dragon’s roar, instantly destroying Qin Feng’s afterimages.
Seeing that Yi Jian wasn’t planning on stopping, Qin Feng tightly gripped his hilt, transforming into an unsheathing blade himself, like an unforged blade.
Sky-Splitting Sword Technique!
The crisp sound of a sword’s unsheathing rang through the forest as a fierce Sword Qi surged forth.
Clang!
The clash of their swords sent metallic echoes resounding through the forest.
The spectators outside were in an uproar as they watched the intense standoff with neither side giving way. The surroundings were shrouded by a formless Sword Qi hurricane. The Sword Qi that were flying everywhere were extremely terrifying, causing deep gashes to appear on the earth beneath them.
“How could it be!”
The Emperor of Six Daos and the rest exclaimed in shock. They were scared by Qin Feng’s might.
That’s right!
They were scared of Qin Feng!
For the outsiders, the fight was a spectacle, but for the insiders, their attention was on the techniques.
In contrast to Bai Ri, who was also at the First layer of the Dao realm, Yi Jian possessed not only the same level of cultivation but also the third level of Sword Intent and the buff from his unique physique, the Sky Sword Physique.
Yet, Qin Feng was able to hold his ground against him without seeming inferior in the slightest. This meant that Qin Feng had other hidden powers buffing himself.
“How can this be!!”
Yi Jian, despite his outward composure, was incredibly shocked on the inside.
Despite possessing a cultivation level significantly higher than Qin Feng and wielding a Sword Intent a tier above, even with the formidable Sky Sword Physique bolstering his strength, Yi Jian found himself unable to defeat Qin Feng with a single strike.
‘Was the Indomitable Sword Heart really that terrifying?!’
Just when Qin Feng felt that he was no longer able to hold on, Whitey, who was on his shoulder, reached out its little paw toward Yi Jian’s eyes and unhesitantly poked at it.
“To be a successful hunter, one must master the art of concealment. They must be as immovable as a bolder while locking onto their targets, striking when the opportunity arrives with unparalleled speed. Ah Da!”
“Fuck!”
The crowd couldn’t help but curse out loud. They realised that Qin Feng’s rabbit was just like him, neither of them knew about shame.
“Ah……”
In pain, Yi Jian retreated. His eye almost went blind from that poke.
However, contrary to what one might expect, he didn’t scream or shout. Instead, he had gained some insights from the battle with Qin Feng, and his body emanated fluctuations of fierce Sword Qi into his surroundings.
It was as if he was evaporating, like a lonely and proud snow lotus standing on a clifftop against the wind, radiating with a strength that moved one’s heart.
“This is……”
Qin Feng was completely shocked at the sideline. This sight was all too familiar.
This was the same feeling as when he had obtained the Indomitable Sword Heart a few years ago. This meant that during his battle with Qin Feng, Yi Jian had started to awaken his own Indomitable Sword Heart.
‘What kind of joke is this?!’
‘System, come out! With his perverted talent, you’re telling me that he isn’t a Chosen One?!’
The system quickly responded, “He does not have the destiny of becoming a Chosen One, but perhaps the destiny of a villain?”
“Villain? We’re in the same industry!”
Qin Feng was stunned, a big fuck appearing in his heart.
He had met three protagonists, all of whom were Epic grade, but he had never met a great villain before.
Qin Feng’s thought process of being competitors in the same industry meant that he didn’t have any intentions of working together with him. He only sought to use this opportunity to get rid of Yi Jian, so as to prevent him from giving experience points and equipment to the protagonists, and eventually raise the difficulty for himself, who was another villain.
“This is the Indomitable Sword Heart?!”
Now that he had come into contact with the Indomitable Sword Heart, Yi Jian’s eyes that were fixed on Qin Feng became even brighter.
He had merely intended to use Qin Feng to sharpen his sword, but he didn’t expect to awaken the Indomitable Sword Heart in the process.
Whoosh!
Yi Jian advanced towards Qin Feng with incredible speed as he swung his longsword around madly, unleashing an extremely fierce Sword Qi with his blade.
“No!”
Qin Feng immediately activated his dense pupils and took him head-on.
Clang! Clang! Clang!
The sounds of metal clashing resounded throughout the forest as the formless Sword Qi flew in all directions.
However, Qin Feng only had the Sky-Splitting Sword Technique and had no other sword technique he could utilise. Consequently, he could only rely on his dense pupils to observe and defend against Yi Jian’s relentless attacks, causing him to be pushed back again and again.
“Qin Feng is going to lose!”
The spectators outside sighed. They could tell that Qin Feng wasn’t far from defeat.
Qin Feng’s Sky-Splitting Sword Technique was undeniably powerful, but if he met with a strong opponent that he couldn’t defeat with a single strike, that meant that he would lack firepower afterwards unless he used both the Sovereign Bone and his dense pupils to fight.
Thinking of this—
The spectators’ eyes remained glued to the screen, wanting to witness the might of both the Sovereign Bone and Arachiac Dense Pupils.
However it appeared that Qin Feng had no intentions of using either the Sovereign Bone or Arachiac Dense Pupils. He swiftly increased the distance between himself and Yi Jian, sheathing his Sky God Sword.
“Are you planning on using your Sovereign Bone and dense pupils?” Yi Jian was instantly alert, not daring to relax in the slightest.
“You’re not worthy,” Qin Feng replied calmly.
“Not worthy?!”
The Emperor of Six Daos and the rest stared at Qin Feng, wanting to see what new technique he would bring out.
And just as the crowd’s anticipation hit its peak, all they saw was Qin Feng’s action of taking out dozens of bottles of [Even a Sow Would Go Crazy], accompanied by the faint sound of Bai Ri’s miserable cries,
‘Don’t come over here……’
