Chapter 602: Blade Master’s Blade Intent
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
Heaven only knew how many hidden battle sages were still present. In case the fact that Li Yunmu knew the method to step into deity realm was spread everywhere, then these existences who had set their sights on the realm above battle sage would instantly treat Li Yunmu like the most wanted criminal!
If they were unable to deal with him, they would most likely try to harm his family. Whatever they chose to do though, one thing certain about these people who believed that they held the leading roles in the world was that they were completely unscrupulous.
The fifty-fifth Earth wasn’t suitable for Li Yunmu to cultivate. If he wanted to advance to the next step, he could only return to the Origin World. But his parents and sister wouldn’t be able to adapt to the terrifying gravity. It was quite likely that the moment they stepped into the Origin World, they would instantly be crushed to death!
Thus, a difficult choice presented itself in front of Li Yunmu: renounce his family for cultivation or renounce cultivation for family?
This sort of choice always put people in an uncomfortable position, but for the time being, Li Yunmu had no thoughts to renounce anything. Therefore, he could only take action and slaughter as many of the people who dared to covet deity realm as he could!
However, this would only treat the symptoms and not the root cause. After all, there were less than half of all the subordinates of the three transcending powers gathered to attack him, and there were also battle sages who hadn’t received an invitation to join the battle.
“You damned wretch!”
Li Yunmu’s ice cold gaze examined Blade Master from top to bottom, and a cyan flame slowly covered the edge of the cyan divine blade with a hint of thunder within it.
“I will never regret making an enemy out of you. During cultivation, I have always advanced courageously on the path of hegemonic blade, so forcing me to retreat is impossible. I had believed that Sword Sage who followed the same hegemonic path would also make the same choice, but alas, I was mistaken.”
Blade Master slowly shook his head. “I don’t know what he sensed or what apprehensions he had, but he would rather renounce his hegemonic sword intent and refuse our invitation in our face than become enemies with you.”
After saying this much, Blade Master tightly gripped the hilt of the black blade which had trapped Zhang Xianhu previously and howled. “Come, Li Yunmu, let me see how the strength I accumulated over a lifetime compares to the true deity power!”
At that instant, Li Yunmu sensed the blade intent of Blade Master. It was completely different from Sword Sage’s sword intent, which was tyrannical and hegemonic. If one absolutely insisted on a description, then the blade intent congealed by Blade Master was valiant!
Although Li Yunmu didn’t know what sort of insight Blade Master had gained which allowed him to comprehend this type of blade intent, he could still guess a thing or two. It was no wonder that Blade Master had rarely reinforced his blade intent with battle skills and instead chose to engrave blade runes on his own body!
Blade Master’s blade could only be first and not second!
It was valiant in the sense that it only knew to kill or be killed. It was even more terrifying than Li Yunmu’s Danger Critical Extinguisher!
With the help of Li Yunmu’s vision, the system saw Blade Master’s counterattack when he was at death’s door. In an instant, its voice exploded in his mind.
[Warning! Requesting host to immediately evade! This one strike with Blade Master all power isn’t something which host’s present defense can resist!]
Unable to resist!?
When he heard those three words, Li Yunmu hesitated slightly, but there wasn’t any change in his expression. Although he was surprised at the terrifying power of Blade Master’s strike, he could sense that Blade Master’s vitality was quickly fading.
The system’s words were correct in that Blade Master had staked his everything on the strike: flux energy, blood and flesh, cultivation, and even vitality.
Battle Sage had been unable to compare with a half step deity level existence. However, if Battle Sage had staked his life on the battle, then let alone speak of a half step deity, even a genuine deity would have to focus all their power to not be obliterated!
“Ha ha ha ha ha!”
A free and relieved laughter suddenly came from Li Yunmu’s mouth. After a moment, he looked at the blade energy beam which had already covered more than a hundred meters and loudly said, “Since you have staked your life and want to experience the difference between our strengths, I will help you!”
The analysis of the system’s large database was always correct. Since it said that Li Yunmu’s defense would be unable to take Blade Master’s strike, then it would definitely be unable to take it. Only if he used the last instance of Perfect Defense would he be able to accomplish this.
But all of this wasn’t important since Li Yunmu didn’t plan to just defend. Even if he could take the attack, he didn’t want it. Only if he crushed the beam of blade energy with his own power would the enemies be cowered by his might. It would also show something different from before, when he had only focused on defending!
“System, help me calculate. If I unleashed Danger Critical Strike while willing to sacrifice a few shadows, could I smash this blade energy into pieces?”
Li Yunmu’s eyebrows jumped once and while dragging the cyan divine blade in a reverse grip, he closed the distance between himself and Blade Master whose vitality was quickly declining.
The system paused for around ten seconds before unhurriedly replying. [One shadow can bring you on par, two shadows can shatter the blade energy, and with three shadows, not only the blade energy will be smashed to pieces, but even Blade Master would die without leaving a corpse behind!]
The system both observed Li Yunmu and analyzed the data with his blade energy as reference all the time. But when he asked the question, it had surprisingly taken full ten seconds to respond!
It could be clearly seen that after supplying its strength to Li Yunmu, it had greatly weakened!
“Prepare two shadows for me. Whether for good or bad, he is a famous supreme transcending expert. Since he chose to meet his death, let him die as he wishes,” Li Yunmu said with a smile that held not joy in it.
With the cyan divine blade moving like a blade flower, he advanced toward his enemy. His gaze was fixed on Blade Master’s face.
It was a done deal that everyone would know that Li Yunmu knew the method to reach deity realm, and they would covet it. That was why if Li Yunmu didn’t unleash his power in front of everyone, he would feel extremely vexed!
At that moment, Zhang Xianhu crawled out of countless blade images and looked at a nearby Li Yunmu coldly before saying a few words in a cold voice.
“He is... my... prey!”
His clothes were tattered. Vicious wounds covered his entire body, and blood flowed out from them.
It was very difficult to imagine that Zhang Xianhu could endure this type of damage. If Li Yunmu had been in his place, then without the reinforcement from Azure Dragon Expert Armor, he wouldn’t have been able to last as long as Zhang Xianhu!
Clearly, this man had grown furious after being trapped in Blade Master’s cage. Without even waiting for Li Yunmu’s reply, he pounced on the blade energy!
