"Testee, congratulations on successfully passing the first four levels. This level will be your last level."
"If you can successfully break through this level, it means the end of your journey to the Sword Saint Tower."
"However, one thing I must remind you is that in this final level, the opponents you need to defeat are the invincibles of all eras."
"Their realm will be the same as yours."
"And you will also lose the opportunity to be resurrected in the previous levels."
"So, failure means death."
"Tested person, do you have the courage to accept this challenge?"
This sudden sound sounded very mechanical and lacked the charm contained in the previous sounds.
"This should be the original real tester of the Sword Saint Tower. However, the people who participated in the test before me are all amazingly talented and powerful figures of an era."
"Their power is far-reaching, so they have the final say as to what the rules are."
"Even this mechanical tester is the real master of this Sword Saint Tower."
"In the second level of Thunder Emperor Sangmu, if Sangmu hadn't released the water, I would never have been able to pass that level. Even if I could, it would have cost a huge amount of time."
Jiang Liru thought, then he nodded slightly and agreed to this challenge.
In fact, this mechanical sound seems a bit redundant.
Now that he has entered the Sword Saint Tower, it means that he has no way out and can only move forward.
"After testing, the person being tested is ready, and the test will officially begin!"
The mechanical voice announced.
Just as he finished speaking, a young swordsman dressed in white appeared in his sight.
The young man's face is not handsome, but it has sharp edges and corners, and his eyes are full of sharpness.
On his back was a broad heavy sword.
Without any words, the young swordsman pulled out the heavy sword behind him and rushed towards Jiang Li.
His face became slightly solemn and he slowed down his breathing. Jiang Li slowly tightened the Miao Dao in his hand, and his body tensed slightly.
Use your heart to feel your opponent's traces.
This is what Jiang Li learned from the swordsman dressed in coarse cloth and linen in the first level.
And his sword-drawing skills can be regarded as being learned from him.
Like an arrow on the string, Jiang Li was ready to go.
Closer, closer.
Finally, a brilliant sword light burst out.
Poof!
A tiny sound like cutting tofu.
The head of the young swordsman in white rolled out.
But when Jiang Li looked back, he only felt pain in his shoulders.
When he took off the clothes on his shoulder, there was already a sword wound that was deep enough to show the bone.
If it weren't for the extremely hard bones of the Ancient Emperor's body, Jiang Li would have been split in half with this sword strike.
The more powerful the confrontation, sometimes the simpler it seems.
With one blow of the sword, the winner was completely decided.
Although it hurt and cold sweat broke out on his forehead, Jiang Li didn't even say a word.
Before he could deal with the wound on his shoulder, another woman in purple appeared in his sight.
The woman's appearance was fresh, but the murderous look between her eyebrows was too strong. Even Jiang Li felt a chill running through his body when he saw her.
Quickly using Ling Qi to stop the bleeding, the girl in purple whipped the snake whip at him from a distance.
There are dots of flames on the snake whip, which appear to be harmless, but are actually the most threatening.
Jiang Li, who had full mental strength, keenly felt the terror of these flaming stars.
After activating "Thunder Escape Ghost Shadow", he quickly dodges.
The snake whip struck the place where Jiang Li was just standing, and a burst of flames shot up into the sky.
The extremely high temperature caused Jiang Li, who had already dodged to avoid it, to break out in a hot sweat.
Holding the yellow medium-sized Miao sword in his hand, Jiang Li launched his body movements and tried to approach the woman in purple.
But the woman in purple was so good at whip skills that Jiang Li came close to him several times, but was pushed back by the snake whip that danced so tightly that no wind could pass through him.
In the process of taking the initiative to attack, he was whipped several times, and his white clothes exploded in an instant. Each whip left scorched black marks on his chest and arms.
The distance was too far, and Jiang Li's sword-drawing technique couldn't be used at all.
While fighting with the woman in purple, Jiang Li was quickly thinking of ways to break the situation.
But at this moment, he suddenly felt pain in his body. He only glanced briefly, and Jiang Li was slightly frightened.
Where the purple-clothed woman's whip struck, among the scorched black marks, flames suddenly rose up again, rapidly burning his flesh and blood.
"What kind of flame is this? It's so powerful."
Jiang Li had to quickly mobilize his thunder-attribute spiritual energy to suppress these rekindled flames.
Thunder and lightning collided with flames, the two most violent attributes, blasting Jiang Li to pieces.
The woman in purple clothes was unyielding when she gained the upper hand. She even took advantage of Jiang Li's distraction and approached step by step, making it difficult for him to resist.
Regardless of the flames on his body, he will be completely ignited sooner or later, and he will be burned to the point of being burned to ashes.
And the woman in purple who was attacking was the biggest threat he faced.
"Thunder God cuts with one strike!"
The martial arts without forward movement immediately exploded, and the sword light containing Jiang Li's unyielding will was in front of Jiang Li one second, and the next second, it had already arrived in front of the woman in purple.
Just as she was about to be wiped out by the light of the sword, the woman in purple just made a slight move with her little hand, and a fire shield engraved with various fiery red patterns appeared in front of her.
Bah!
There was a violent collision, and the purple-clothed girl's body continued to retreat. The sword light struck by Jiang Li was indeed powerful.
A deep knife mark appeared on the fire shield, but in the end the light of the knife was offset by the fire shield.
Almost as soon as the sword light was wiped out, the woman in purple immediately started to fight back.
Fortunately, Jiang Li had already dealt with the black scars on his body during this period, so he was free of worries for the time being.
After learning the previous lesson, Jiang Li no longer foolishly chose to take the initiative to attack. In the face of such an invincible opponent at the same level, any attempt to make a big move would be seeking death!
He chose to stop with silence and play with speed, making his defense truly airtight.
He wanted to wait until the woman in purple showed her weakness, and then struck a fatal blow.
In this kind of duel between masters, one blow is often fatal.
For a moment, the battle between the two fell into an anxious state.
…
Dao Zong.
Tianfeng.
Liu Zhantian ordered the bell-ringing disciples to ring the big bell on Tianfeng.
The bell rings five times to summon the deputy peak leaders of each peak to discuss matters.
It’s already the end of the year, and in ten days, it will be the Sword Sect’s annual ranking battle.
Now we have to discuss many matters regarding the battle to determine the rankings.
The battle to determine the rankings is to compete for the best group of disciples, one hundred on the earth's list and one hundred on the heaven's list. Then the sect will do its best to train these two hundred disciples.
Normally, if you want to be on the list, you can only start from the lowest 100th place.
The battle to determine the rankings at the end of the year is completely disrupted, and everyone has to be selected from fierce competition.
This not only gives opportunities to subsequent disciples, but also allows the disciples on the list to maintain a strong sense of crisis at all times.
Even if you are on the list, if you slack off and don't work harder, you may be kicked off the list at any time.
