Chaos Heaven-Dominating Technique

Chapter 468: Chapter 466: Shut the Hell Up

"One Sword Asura?" Seeing Bai Li’s stance, Shen Haoran froze for a moment. He immediately understood why Bai Li dared to challenge him—it was because he had obtained the inheritance of the One Sword Asura!

Shen Haoran had learned all the Martial Skills of the Ten Thousand Swords Sect from Ni Jianshuang. The One Sword Asura was indeed the strongest in terms of Attack Power and also the most profound Martial Skill, bar none. Back in the day, only Core Disciples of the Ten Thousand Swords Sect were qualified to practice it. The fact that Bai Li could obtain the inheritance of the One Sword Asura in the Sword Tomb proved his aptitude was decent.

However, even if Bai Li had obtained the inheritance of the One Sword Asura, he had picked the wrong person to provoke. The One Sword Asura was a Martial Skill created by Ni Jianshuang herself, and Shen Haoran had received her direct teachings. For Bai Li to use the One Sword Asura in front of Shen Haoran—wasn’t that just showing off his meager skills before a true master?

"Shen Haoran, I’m giving you one last chance. Hand over the goods, and I’ll let you live. Otherwise, death is your only option!" Bai Li barked coldly at Shen Haoran.

"Sorry, but I have a rule: whatever I, Shen Haoran, swallow, I don’t spit back out. If you think you have what it takes, then come and get it!" Shen Haoran was completely unfazed by Bai Li’s threat. Instead, he beckoned to Bai Li with his finger in an extremely provocative gesture.

Seeing Shen Haoran’s provocative gesture, Bai Li’s face darkened, and the Sword Qi pulsing from his Silver Longsword grew even more formidable.

"Since you’d rather do this the hard way, don’t blame me for being ruthless! One Sword... Asura!" Bai Li snorted coldly. He then abruptly drew his Silver Longsword, and a Sword Light over a foot wide flared to life, striking toward Shen Haoran like a bolt of lightning. The sharp Sword Qi carved a deep trench into the earth.

Feeling the chilling aura of that Sword Light, the Martial Artists behind Bai Li all shuddered.

"So this is the One Sword Asura? What terrifying destructive power!"

"Although the one Bai Li is using can’t compare to that Sword Light we saw at the sect gate, its Attack Power is still nothing to scoff at. The inheritance Bai Li obtained in the Sword Tomb is probably the best one among all of us!"

"With the One Sword Asura, as long as Bai Li continues to study it, a supreme expert will surely emerge in the Northern Domain in less than ten years! What a pity for Shen Haoran, losing his life over a moment of greed. Such a fool!"

"Dying to Bai Li’s One Sword Asura is an honor for him!" The Martial Artists chattered among themselves, as if they could already see Shen Haoran being sliced in two at the waist by the Sword Light, his blood splattering all over the ground.

And the result was just as those Martial Artists had expected. The Sword Light, powerful enough to slice through space itself, struck Shen Haoran like lightning. Shen Haoran stood frozen in place as if he were scared stiff, and the Sword Light instantly sliced through his body. It finally slammed into the Cyan Stone Tower behind him, causing the entire tower to tremble.

But bizarrely, not a single drop of blood sprayed from the body of Shen Haoran that had been cleaved in two. A gentle breeze swept by, and the figure slowly dissipated before everyone’s shocked eyes.

"An afterimage! That was an afterimage!" one disciple cried out in shock as Shen Haoran’s bisected figure vanished. The other Martial Artists’ eyes were also filled with utter disbelief. Bai Li’s One Sword Asura had been as fast as lightning, yet Shen Haoran was still able to dodge it. ’Just how fast is he?’

"So that’s your One Sword Asura? Are you sure you even know how to use this Martial Skill?" Just as everyone was reeling in shock, a mocking voice sounded from behind them.

Hearing this, everyone whipped their heads around, only to find that Shen Haoran had appeared behind them without anyone noticing. He was now looking at Bai Li with a peculiar expression, his eyes brimming with derision.

"Shen Haoran!" Seeing that Shen Haoran had not only dodged his One Sword Asura but was also looking at him with pure mockery, a fire of rage ignited in Bai Li’s heart. He snarled through clenched teeth.

"Hmph, you were just lucky! I was only using half my strength. This time, you won’t escape!" Bai Li snorted coldly, and Sword Aura once again erupted from his longsword. This time, the Sword Light was even more dazzling than before. The very air around it began to distort, and the intense friction created a low hum that buzzed in everyone’s ears.

Seeing Bai Li gathering his power again, the surrounding Martial Artists immediately scattered. Shen Haoran was behind them, and Bai Li’s attack was bound to catch them in the crossfire. They didn’t possess Shen Haoran’s monstrous speed, which allowed him to dodge the One Sword Asura.

"Is this Bai Li’s full strength? It’s so much more powerful than before!"

"There’s no way Shen Haoran can dodge it this time. He’s dead for sure, right?"

Staring at the space around Bai Li twisting from the immense power, the surrounding disciples muttered viciously.

"One Sword Asura!" Bai Li roared and slashed out with his longsword. The surrounding disciples only saw a blur flash past before the brilliant Sword Light cleaved Shen Haoran’s body in two!

"S-So fast!" When the surrounding disciples saw that dazzling Sword Light, goosebumps broke out all over their skin. The bone-chilling aura of the Sword Light made them feel a cold sensation on their necks. They immediately turned to look at Shen Haoran. At such terrifying speed, surely he couldn’t have dodged.

However, when they saw him, they all felt an overwhelming urge to start cursing. At the spot where Shen Haoran had been standing, there was still no blood. His figure was slowly dissipating. It was another afterimage. He had dodged it again!

Seeing Shen Haoran dodge his One Sword Asura yet again, Bai Li’s face burned with shame. A wave of viciousness washed over him, and the Sword Aura on his longsword began to gather once more.

"I refuse to believe I can’t kill you! One Sword—" Bai Li snarled, his expression venomous. However, before he could finish, a dark figure abruptly appeared in front of him. A slap, backed by a howling wind, slammed into his face, accompanied by a torrent of curses.

"One Sword my ass! Shut the hell up! You’ve turned a perfectly good Martial Skill into this garbage, have you no shame? You still have the nerve to say ’One Sword’? Say it again, I dare you!" The whistling wind, the curses, and the intense pain ringing in Bai Li’s ears left him reeling.

BAM... Shen Haoran’s slap sent Bai Li flying. He crashed to the ground tens of meters away and tumbled more than ten times before finally coming to a stop, spitting out a mouthful of blood and broken teeth.

"Hmph. Now, I’ll show you what the *real* One Sword Asura is!" Bai Li was still reeling from the excruciating pain when Shen Haoran’s icy voice echoed in his ear. He looked up and stared, dumbfounded, at Shen Haoran...
