Chapter 1204: Chapter 1203: Mad Blade Marquis
"There are quite a lot of people here, but I wonder about the quality."
In the Divine Marquis seat, a gray-robed swordsman spoke, his eyes releasing a rather chilling light.
This person was one of the Twelve Divine Marquises, the Mad Blade Marquis.
With just a glance, the Mad Blade Marquis made the faces of many young experts slightly change, turning somewhat pale.
"Such a terrifying aura."
Ling Chen saw the hidden meaning within. The blade intent of the Mad Blade Marquis carried an extremely fierce madness, capable of attacking the enemy from a hundred steps away, shattering their courage and damaging their mind.
"Mad Blade Marquis, huh? Let me, Peerless Sword, be your opponent!"
The intimidating aura of the Mad Blade Marquis frightened many, but there was one person who, instead of retreating, stepped forward, his gaze like a torch, refusing to yield as he looked ahead.
"Peerless Sword?"
Upon hearing this name, the gazes from the Divine Marquis seats became solemn. Clearly, even among the Divine Marquis level geniuses, many had heard of Peerless Sword’s name.
"Star Sword Marquis, this Peerless Sword is your junior, no? You must surely know his capabilities."
A Divine Marquis level genius looked towards a nearby swordsman in yellow, whose robe was embroidered with star-like patterns, this person being the young genius from the Sword Casting Villa, Star Sword Marquis.
"My junior Peerless Sword, when it comes to swordsmanship, is perhaps not inferior to me."
Star Sword Marquis held his sword with both hands, his expression indifferent, "The Mad Blade Marquis may not be his match."
"Oh?"
The Divine Marquis level genius paused, his eyes showing a trace of astonishment, "Such a young age, yet already reached this level. This Peerless Sword has limitless potential."
Unexpectedly, among the younger generation, a figure capable of threatening the Divine Marquis level geniuses had emerged.
With a "swish", the Mad Blade Marquis flew down from the Divine Marquis seats like a sharp blade, landing fiercely in the central area of the venue, stirring up a towering dust cloud.
"Crown Prince Peerless Sword, I know of you. Give yourself three more years, and I won’t stand a chance against you. But right now, you’re still lacking."
The Mad Blade Marquis slightly lifted his eyelids, his expression indifferent.
"Who is inferior to whom is not for you to decide."
Peerless Sword drew the treasure sword from his waist, leaned slightly forward, and assumed a stance to launch an attack, exuding an extremely sharp aura, "Mad Blade Marquis, you will become the stepping stone for my marquis title."
He must defeat the Mad Blade Marquis, seize the Divine Marquis seat, and then contend with Ling Chen and Wei Wuxian for the title of the number one genius swordsman, provided, of course, that they also manage to seize the Divine Marquis seat.
"Ridiculous, take a strike from me first!"
The Mad Blade Marquis’ eyes suddenly filled with a violent killing intent, and then he drew two shining black treasure swords from his waist, slicing through the air. These twin treasure swords extended tens of meters of black blade light in mid-air, crisscrossing toward Peerless Sword.
As the blade light appeared, cries seemingly from hell echoed from within.
"A pair of murderous mad blades, cutting down all who refuse."
A Divine Marquis level genius stared intently at the Mad Blade Marquis, "Let’s see if he can take down Peerless Sword with those blades."
The Murderous Mad Blades are renowned sacred weapons. Creatures that have perished at their edges number in the tens of thousands; they are peerless brutal blades that only those with extraordinary resolve can wield.
The Mad Blade Marquis was already extremely powerful, not to mention his possession of the Murderous Mad Blades, which further elevated his strength by threefold.
As the blade light neared Peerless Sword, shrill cries echoed, mournful, tragic, piercing, disturbing Peerless Sword’s mind.
Aung!
At this moment, a powerful dragon aura erupted from Peerless Sword’s body, soaring to the sky. The two blade beams were impeded by the dragon aura, greatly losing their power, slowing down significantly.
"True Dragon Qi!"
Many showed a trace of surprise in their eyes. Peerless Sword harbored a powerful True Dragon Qi, an aura only possessed by the Imperial Clan. If Peerless Sword had the chance to become an Emperor, this True Dragon Qi would evolve into Son of Heaven Qi, increasing tenfold in strength.
Currently, Empress Yun Yao possesses Son of Heaven Qi, which though imperceptible, is capable of killing from a hundred miles away, terrifyingly potent.
The Mad Blade Marquis was not surprised by Peerless Sword blocking the blade light. He abruptly flipped his hand, the twin blades swung out again, like thunder.
Clang clang clang clang clang!
Blades and swords crossed paths, exchanging blows numerous times in the blink of an eye, revealing the rampant overbearing style of the Mad Blade Marquis.
Moreover, the twin blades of the Mad Blade Marquis seemed unified, blending seamlessly, capable of delivering simultaneous kills with tremendous power.
"Twin Knife Stream!"
Ling Chen’s eyes lit up. He had long heard of a school known as Twin Knife Stream. The so-called Twin Knife Stream is not simply using two knives. At their cultivation level, using two knives easily leads to divided attention. In life and death duels, even a momentary slip could result in a fatal defeat.
The Twin Knife Stream resolved this issue. Initially, in the early days of the Nine Provinces Land’s development, it was considered an unorthodox sect of the blade way, not the correct path.
Later, this school spread overseas to Yingzhou in the East Sea, where it was enhanced by Master Gongben.
Master Gongben, using Twin Knife Stream, defeated countless Yingzhou experts, gaining fame. Even in current-day Yingzhou, Master Gongben and the Twin Knife Stream he left behind still hold significant influence.
Never expected to see a trace of Twin Knife Stream in the Mad Blade Marquis today. However, the Twin Knife Stream of the Mad Blade Marquis is evidently at a very rudimentary stage. Even Ling Chen could see the flaws, and it only counts as the most introductory level of Twin Knife Stream.
Nevertheless, Ling Chen gained a bit of insight from the opponent.
If there is Twin Knife Stream, why can’t there be Dual Sword Stream?
As Ling Chen pondered, in the central venue, the Mad Blade Marquis and Peerless Sword were about to decide the victor.
"Peerless Overbearing Blade!"
The Mad Blade Marquis suddenly spun his body, the twin blades slashing down with an unmatched aura, causing the ground below to sink and form two deep cracks.
At this moment, Peerless Sword had fully activated the True Dragon Emperor War Technique, his cultivation surging to a high-level semi-holy level, only a step away from becoming a Saint!
He hadn’t expected to be pushed by the Mad Blade Marquis to this point. Originally, the technique was reserved for Ling Chen and Wei Wuxian, but now he had no choice but to use it early!
"Sky Void Breaking Delusion, Second Style!"
Peerless Sword swung out a single sword, distorting the surrounding space. Bloody rain and wind were born out of thin air, transforming into a sea of blood and purgatory, enveloping the surrounding space in its entirety.
Boom!
Amid the focused stares, two figures charged toward each other with overwhelming momentum!
