Sword Aura to the Heavens

Chapter 489: Chapter 484: Shaking Seventh Realm

Countless gazes turned towards the distant ruins of the villa, where amidst a cloud of dust, Sword Intent seemed to have taken on a tangible form, enveloping the ruins, flowing like thousands of silver lights.

In the midst of the silver sword light wrapped in Sword Intent, a group of figures appeared, their eyes looking in the direction where Jiang Tianxing was.

Behind those standing figures, an elegant youth in white remained reclined on a chair, his palm supporting his cheek, looking a bit languid; his gaze also glanced toward Jiang Tianxing.

"Seventh Realm."

Lu Yuan’s dark eyes emitted a cold light; still ignoring the rules.

As long as Li Fan is still in the Capital, Emperor Li’s promise remains valid.

"Jiang Family, Jiang Tianxing."

On the street, Jiang Tianxing hovered midair, and as the sword light bloomed, the vast space was illuminated; thousands of silver lights were exceedingly brilliant, filling the sky.

"I advise you not to make a move."

Li Fan still did not rise, his gaze toward Jiang Tianxing seemed somewhat indolent.

Jiang Tianxing ignored him, one silver sword after another moved through the sky, descending over the ruins, then fell, as if transforming into a Sword Array, sealing off the area where Li Fan and the others were.

"I know Emperor Li promised that the Seventh Realm cannot make a move against you in the Capital, you use this as your confidence, lingering in the Capital, you are well aware that once you leave the Capital, you will die."

"So what?" Li Fan said casually.

"As a descendant of Li Mountain Sword Dao, you don’t seem ashamed. Even if Emperor Li has promised, do you intend to stay in the Capital for ten or twenty years?"

Jiang Tianxing mocked: "His Majesty keeps his promises, but I come to find you to avenge Tai E. I won’t actively make a move against you, but if you strike first, it’s a different matter."

Having said that, Jiang Tianxing waved his hand, instantly a row of silver swords hovered like silver, the silver light they breathed was like lightning, shining upon Huang Xiong, Lu Yuan, Yue Qingqiu, and others.

In an instant, the group was illuminated by silver light, locked by Sword Intent, a strong sense of crisis struck, Huang Xiong shouted, Mystic Technique activated, his body blooming with golden light, trying to drive away the silver sword light shining on him.

But the silver light remained, an invisible Sword Intent fell upon him with the silver light, as if a thought from Jiang Tianxing could make the sword of slaughter fall instantly.

More and more people gathered around the street, some flying in the air, even a number of Great Cultivators arrived, countless gazes fixed on the silver light locking several people, knowing Jiang Tianxing intended to strike Li Fan’s companions to force Li Fan into action.

Although the result was the same, he ultimately struck as a Seventh Realm, but found a reason, perhaps so the court could step back.

After all, the court also wanted Li Fan dead.

"Jiang Tianxing is still Jiang Tianxing, swift and decisive, the once Jiang Family genius has reached the Seventh Realm; this time, who will protect Li Fan?"

People thought to themselves, Li Fan hadn’t left the Capital, those who protected Li Fan initially should still be quite a number remaining in the Capital, right?

"Slay!"

As Jiang Tianxing’s voice fell, the silvery beams locking Huang Xiong and others burst forth, silver killing light appeared in the sky, seemingly about to fall upon those amid the ruins.

Under the silver light, those who were locked seemed undoubtedly doomed.

But nearly at the same moment, the white-clothed figure on the chair moved, transforming into a shadow.

"Boom..."

Silver light exploded, dazzling beams turned into countless threads spreading around, under the astonished gazes of all, the white-clothed figure stood in mid-air, appearing at the front of the ruins.

In front of him, a giant Sword Array spanning the heavens and earth appeared, and the destructive silver beams falling upon the Sword Array were intercepted.

Jiang Tianxing clearly showed a hint of surprise, looking at Li Fan with some astonishment.

Peak of Six Realms could actually block his sword?

He pointed a finger towards the sky, and instantly sword light skyrocketed, changing the color of the heavens and earth, the clouds flowing in the sky were pierced, endless silver streams roamed, covering hundreds of miles, countless people looked up at the sky, as if they were all enveloped in the Sword Domain.

Above the sky appeared a giant illusion, resembling Jiang Tianxing, fingers poised in front, eyes shooting out immense sword beams, causing the Sword Aura to roll across the heavens and earth.

"Seventh Realm sword, creating Sword Dao phenomenon." Countless people looked up, the surging sword streams flowing above their heads.

Secretly, Cultivators in the Capital came one after another, mostly to join the excitement.

Li Fan stayed in the Capital for a year, someone finally couldn’t resist making a move, unexpectedly breaking the rules was Jiang Family’s Jiang Tianxing, however, it seemed quite suitable.

"The light of a firefly, daring to compete with the brilliance of the moon, I want to kill them, how will you stop me?" The sound in the sky rolled, like thunder echoing across the firmament.

Everyone felt it was somewhat inappropriate, for with Li Fan of Li Mountain’s talent, he absolutely couldn’t be considered ’the light of a firefly’, but considering the chasm between the Seventh Realm and Six Realms, Jiang Tianxing indeed had the arrogance of capital.

A Seventh Realm Sword Cultivator stands at the pinnacle of the Da Li Dynasty.

"Firefly, bright moon?"

Li Fan slightly tilted his head back, looking at the phantom in the sky. The phantom raised a finger and uttered, "Tribulation Fall."

In the instant the words fell, the rolling sword flows in the sky manifested strands of silver lightning. They fell like a heavenly thunder tribulation, straight towards Huang Xiong and others, locking onto everyone securely.

As the tribulation light descended, seeing everyone couldn’t possibly avoid it, the white-clothed figure wielded his sword.

"How could a Sixth Realm sword block such an attack?"

A thought rose in everyone’s mind, the sword light appearing blinding. As they watched the descending killing tribulation from the sky, countless gazes fixed upon it.

They saw the descending silver sword flow break away, a crescent-shaped sword light appeared in the sky, one sword cut through the void, severing the entire space and the killing tribulation.

"What is this?"

A Great Cultivator watching from the shadows couldn’t help but have their pupils constrict at the sight of the scene; this sword...

Even Jiang Tianxing was stunned for a moment, watching the sword light passing through the void, the sword mark still lingering.

"Bright moon? If you didn’t have Seventh Realm cultivation, you’d not dare appear before me." Li Fan glanced at Jiang Tianxing: "Relying on your realm to belittle others, you’re not worthy of wielding a sword."

Jiang Tianxing stared at Li Fan in silence for a moment, saying, "This sword is decent. No wonder you defeated Tai E. If you entered the Seventh Realm, I might indeed not be your match, but today, you won’t stop me."

"There’s no need to threaten me with them either. With your sword alone, you’re not worthy of killing me."

Finishing his words, Li Fan took a step forward, actively moving towards Jiang Tianxing.

Seeing this, everyone’s heart trembled—was Li Fan intending to challenge a Seventh Realm Great Sword Cultivator with his Sixth Realm cultivation?

Throughout a millennium of the Da Li Dynasty, how many outstanding figures have emerged, generations of talents appearing, countless challengers crossing boundaries?

However, no one has ever defeated a Seventh Realm Great Cultivator with a Sixth Realm cultivation.

This isn’t a simple small gap, but a true chasm.

Moreover, standing before Li Fan was a renowned Seventh Realm Great Sword Cultivator known for his lethality.

"More than a year ago, in the battle at Qiyun House, Li Fan became famous in Da Li, praised by many as Da Li’s greatest genius. A year later, is this genius Sword Cultivator truly challenging the Seventh Realm?"

An elder sitting in a distant tavern, drinking and watching, gazed at the battlefield, "This Jiang Tianxing, as always, proud and self-righteous. In the Capital, there are many who could kill Li Fan, but why haven’t they come?"

"Yet Li Fan, like Jiang Tianxing, is self-righteous. Even if he’s more remarkable, the gap to the Seventh Realm still exists like a heavenly mirror. How would he cross it?"

After speaking, the elder downed the wine in his cup, watching with keen interest.

In various parts of the Capital, strands of Divine Sense scanned towards the battlefield.

As for those around, they retreated to the distance, worried about being caught up in the grand battle. A battle between Seventh Realm Great Sword Cultivators, if uncontrolled, could easily flatten hundreds of miles around.

"A fool trying to move a tree."

Jiang Tianxing saw Li Fan approaching and sneered: "Since you seek death on your own, I’ll fulfill your wish."

The silver Sword Aura storm surging in the sky spawned one sharp sword after another, exhaling destructive tribulation light.

Li Fan raised his head slightly, seeming to feel the strength of that Sword Intent. Jiang Tianxing said, "Not entering this door, how could you know the Great Way?"

The silver sword light descended, as if millions of sword flows were born with the sword, innumerable silver sword marks appeared in the sky, instantly illuminating upon Li Fan.

Seeing the beams of destructive silver light about to fall, Li Fan raised his hand, pointing to the sky. The descending silver sword light halted abruptly, a terrifying Sword Aura torrent roared into motion, transforming into a long river of Sword Aura, clashing with the descending sword light, as the sky seemed to tear open fissures, unleashing a terrifying destruction storm.

But the descending silver Tribulation Sword couldn’t advance further, gradually collapsing and shattering.

Countless gazes fixed on that figure standing mid-air, white robes fluttering, peerlessly dignified, stopping the sky with a single finger.

At this moment, everyone couldn’t help but think, could Li Fan, with a Sixth Realm cultivation, shake a Seventh Realm Great Sword Cultivator?

The destructive Sword Intent gradually dissipated, the flowing Sword Aura river in the sky persisted, Jiang Tianxing did not rush to act, but stared at that figure.

If the first sword was an accident, then what about this one?

"Interesting." Cultivators watching from afar became increasingly intrigued, this Li Mountain successor, could he be about to defy the millennia-old iron rule of cultivation today?
