System's Super Sect Chapter 922 - 865: Yun Liao’s Excitement (Second Update)
Previously on System's Super Sect...
Sword light flashes like thunderbolts!
Sword Qi cleaves the boundless heavens!
Within an instant, the twin swords arrived right before Ji Daoshi. Though shocked, he bellowed in exhilaration, "Good timing!"
Immediately, Ji Daoshi arched his back like a drawn bow, slamming his left foot down hard, embedding himself like a iron stake into the soil.
Bam!
Bang!
After those two impacts, Yun Liao’s swords halted a mere foot from Ji Daoshi. The robust Mountain-Suppressing Armor utterly repelled both blades.
"Explode!"
With a savage roar, the Vein Qi enveloping Ji Daoshi erupted violently, unleashing a powerful shockwave that hurled all three swords backward.
The Wan Hua Building and nearby structures were also blasted away!
From overhead, it looked like a apocalyptic tempest had ravaged everything.
"My building!" The Wan Hua Building owner collapsed in despair at the sight.
Decades of hard work reduced to ruins in a flash.
Even amid her sorrow, she refrained from stepping in.
The onlookers forbade it!
And she lacked the courage!
Spectators from a distance restrained the Wan Hua Building owner, astonished by Ji Daoshi’s might.
Considering Ji Daoshi hadn’t reached forty, their hearts churned with mixed feelings.
A genius remains a genius!
Right then, after knocking back the three flying swords, Ji Daoshi stayed vigilant, aware they were merely deflected for the moment.
They’d strike again!
Yet even a brief opening sufficed!
Bang!
Bam!
Ji Daoshi pounded the ground multiple times, then ripped off his robes with both hands.
The instant after, Ji Daoshi’s frame expanded swiftly, his stature surging to two zhang tall in a flash.
From afar, he appeared as a primal titan from ancient wilds.
As the flying swords lunged once more, beastly glee twisted Ji Daoshi’s features into a savage grin, and he charged forward with a thunderous bellow to clash head-on.
"I will crush all your swords to pieces!"
While the three swords hurtled toward him, Ji Daoshi unleashed three rapid punches, their gales sweeping the whole street.
Every punch connected solidly with a flying sword.
Shattering all three blades instantly!
With the trio of swords in fragments, Ji Daoshi surged straight at Yun Liao in the distance.
Seeing this, Yun Liao burned with equal fervor, his face echoing Ji Daoshi’s prior thrill.
A real battle demands back-and-forth!
"The prodigy of Heaven-Gazing Gorge truly lives up to his fame, smashing my swords outright."
Those swords were forged by Master Zi Ran; normal strikes couldn’t damage their essence.
Yet Ji Daoshi had pulverized one with a lone fist.
What a waste of those three swords, each worth 100 White Crystals!
"Now taste this blade." With a mental command from Yun Liao, yet another sword emerged from his Storage Ring!
Golden sword light blazed, illuminating seven brilliant stars in its wake!
Seven Stars Sword!
The prized weapon of Cyan Cloud Sect’s Sect Leader from the Immortal Slaying World!
He’d endured months of spectacle to claim this sword, rarely deploying it, yet today he unveiled it.
Swish!
In a flash, the Seven Stars Sword closed in on Ji Daoshi.
This halted Ji Daoshi mid-charge, his intent to pulverize Yun Liao with one blow frozen.
For the Seven Stars Sword emanated crushing pressure, instilling an inescapable sense that his Spirit Body couldn’t withstand it.
This marked the first such feeling for him!
His Spirit Body, capable of clashing briefly even with Demon Kings in the Upper Realm of Mountain Suppression!
Though dubious, he heeded his gut, dodging hastily.
But evasion came too late.
Failing to sidestep, the Seven Stars Sword speared his left arm. Despite channeling the full might of Mountain-Suppressing Armor and Vein Qi Shield there, it proved inadequate.
The Seven Stars Sword bored through the left arm!
Plunging over three inches into the flesh!
Even worse, it kept burrowing deeper, intent on ruining the limb.
Ji Daoshi seized the Seven Stars Sword’s hilt with his right hand, ignoring Sword Qi’s ravages, striving to yank it free—but he merely slowed its advance, unable to dislodge it fully.
"Pierce through!"
Abruptly, Yun Liao’s furious cry rang out.
The Seven Stars Sword surged with power, hauling Ji Daoshi a thousand meters distant, smashing through countless homes before halting in a courtyard.
Why halt?
The Seven Stars Sword had fully impaled the arm.
Dragging his profusely bleeding left arm, Ji Daoshi rose unsteadily. Before recovering, the Seven Stars Sword whirled back for another assault.
This time, Ji Daoshi knew clearly: his Spirit Body wasn’t invincible against this foe.
"Then let’s get serious!"
Roaring fiercely, Ji Daoshi unlocked three Meridian Gates one after another.
As the earthy Meridian Gates swung open, the ground quaked uncontrollably, then a towering Heaven-Reaching Stone Pillar erupted, hoisting Ji Daoshi skyward. While ascending, he gripped a colossal stone hammer from the earth.
Boosted by the Four Vortex Vortex Map, the stone hammer spanned ten zhang, dwarfing the Seven Stars Sword into a tiny, fragile thing.
Right behind, Ji Daoshi heaved the stone hammer, slamming at the incoming Seven Stars Sword, locking in a fierce aerial deadlock.
Now, the Seven Stars Sword couldn’t press forward unchecked.
The massive hammer not only halted it but slowly drove it back.
"Heaven-Shaking Hammer!"
Next instant, Ji Daoshi’s Meridian Gate shuddered as boundless earth-yellow Vein Qi converged on the Giant Hammer, ballooning it enormously.
To thirty zhang across!
Resembling a miniature mountain!
Gripping the hammer two-handed, Ji Daoshi swung with savage force!
Under the Heaven-Shaking Hammer’s onslaught, the Seven Stars Sword hurtled away!
"And you too!"
After flinging back the Seven Stars Sword, Ji Daoshi bellowed again, vaulting high and plummeting from a kilometer away toward Yun Liao like a shooting star.
Yun Liao tried disrupting with Sword Control Skill anew, but each thrust met Ji Daoshi’s Heaven-Shaking Hammer counter.
Out of options, he abandoned the effort!
"Evidently, my Sword Control Skill’s power caps at the Middle Realm of Mountain Suppression. Against this freakish might nearing the Upper Realm of Mountain Suppression, it falls short!" Recognizing his Great Success Sword Control Skill’s boundaries, Yun Liao swiftly stowed the Seven Stars Sword.
If Sword Control fails, abandon it!
With a swift grab, a magic wand materialized in his grasp.
The very next moment, Yun Liao started incantating.
Ji Daoshi, plummeting rapidly, noted the scene without extra concern.
If you won’t budge!
Then perish!
But to the watchers, it appeared otherwise.
"Why not evade?"
"Heaven-Shaking Hammer is an Earth Level Middle Grade Vein Technique; Ji Daoshi must have mastered it to Great Success. His power now nears the Upper Realm of Mountain Suppression without fully opening Meridian Gates—yet he charges straight?"
"Perhaps he’s cornered. Like us, he likely never imagined Ji Daoshi’s genius. Under forty, wielding strength so close to Upper Realm of Mountain Suppression. At forty, you and I lingered at Divine Profound Realm."
"This battle, Immortal Sect’s folks must be witnessing; they’re probably stunned. Post-today, that Immortal Sect won’t boast as Red Domain’s top again."
As they chatted, Ji Daoshi loomed overhead, bringing the Heaven-Shaking Hammer crashing down.
Boom—
The blast thundered like celestial wrath!
The giant hammer’s impact shook the ground faintly, akin to heavenly thunder exploding.
At the Heaven-Shaking Hammer’s strike point.
Across thousands of meters.
Everything obliterated!
Reduced utterly to powder.
As thick dust dispersed, revealing the hundred-zhang crater from the Heaven-Shaking Hammer, silver sword light shimmered around Ji Daoshi’s former spot like myriad stars.
