Chapter 38: Genius Clings to the Thigh (1/2)

Jiang Ren unexpectedly broke through in battle!

His momentum instantly soared to its peak! For a moment, it compensated for the lack of spiritual power caused by the absence of True Essence!

His eyes sparkled with brilliance as he opened his arms, summoning the origin sword to his chest.

At that moment, his confidence surged along with the Spiritual Qi within his body!

Having broken through in battle, his momentum was no less than when he faced Ning Wuxie in a showdown on the arena!

Now, he remained calm and unflustered.

He was bound to unleash his strongest full-force attack!

Jiang Ren opened his mouth, releasing streams of pure blue spiritual power, which flowed into the origin sword in front of him.

The origin sword’s form suddenly expanded, growing into a giant sword nearly ten feet tall and one foot wide in just a few breaths!

With blue True Qi circulating, Jiang Ren’s commanding origin sword erupted with overwhelming killing intent and astonishing momentum!

Dantai Ying beside him showed a look of astonishment; this move definitely possessed the might of a Core Formation.

Even for himself, full effort was required to withstand it.

Yet Ning Wuxie was merely at the Spirit Condensing Realm…

Xuan’er nervously clenched her small hands together, anxiously watching Ning Wuxie.

“Brother…”

At that moment, Ning Wuxie stood quietly on the ground, showing no signs of movement.

Compared to the massive blue origin sword in front of Jiang Ren, he appeared like a helpless mortal, lacking any brilliance.

“Ning Wuxie! Look up and see what true Core Formation realm is!”

Jiang Ren roared arrogantly, feeling that his spiritual power output had reached its limit.

This time, he had fully charged his power, unlike before in the arena when he had released it prematurely due to nervousness.

“Sword Gate—Open!”

Jiang Ren howled like a wild beast, his hair coming undone, and his eyes turned red.

The origin sword, in response to his effort, surged again, crashing down towards Ning Wuxie with the force of a heavenly gate!

However, all Ning Wuxie did was extend his hand and grasp the floating spirit sword beside him.

Amidst the overwhelming blue spiritual power that exploded, the sword tassel of the ice-blue spirit sword suddenly flickered.

The ice-blue light pierced through the turbulent blue air currents, stubbornly shimmering!

“Wielding the sword to test the will of heaven, the heart of heaven is my heart.”

Ning Wuxie softly recited.

In the next second, a beam of white light shot out from the spirit sword in front of him!

This beam of white light was not large, taking on a cylindrical shape, just barely enveloping both Ning Wuxie and Jiang Ren!

Of course, it also included the blue origin sword that was crashing down between them.

Within the light column, time seemed to slow down.

“Heavenly Heart Sword Formation!”

Dantai Ying and Li Luobing, who were observing the battle, exclaimed in unison!

This was the Heavenly Heart Sword Formation! The Immortal Grade legendary sword formation of the Spirit Pavilion!

How could Ning Wuxie have obtained it? Wasn’t this what Jiang Ren had always wanted?!

In the distant sky, the three ancestors were equally shocked!

“It’s actually the Heavenly Heart Sword Formation! Inherited from the ancient Asking Heaven Sword Sect, the entire Spirit Pavilion has no more than a few sets. Why does he have it?!” Zhou Wuleng exclaimed.

“And he actually managed to release it…” Dong Fangbai’s eyes widened in disbelief, murmuring.

“This indicates that he has nurtured a powerful sword intent within him, at least a trace!”

“How is that possible? Cultivators at the Spirit Condensing Realm shouldn’t possess sword intent?!”

“He just recently learned to control the sword with his Qi!”

Even Zhou Wuleng, who had cultivated for many years, was confused at this moment.

“This young man is truly extraordinary!”

The three ancestors were baffled, unable to comprehend how Ning Wuxie had the strength to successfully release the Heavenly Heart Sword Formation.

The Heavenly Heart Sword Formation had an incredible effect, allowing the wielder’s heart to act as the sword within a certain range.

The wielder’s intent became the will of heaven, capable of reversing the laws in an instant!

Its drawback was that the difficulty of release was extremely high.

This was why Elder Xuanji was unwilling to exchange it for any amount of money with Jiang Ren, as it was clearly a waste of talent.

The three ancestors exchanged glances, all feeling a sense of regret for the talent…

In the arena, Jiang Ren was completely enveloped by the white light emitted by the Heavenly Heart Sword Formation.

In an instant, he felt as if he were trapped in a quagmire, with the movements of the origin sword and his body slowing down several times!

However, his thoughts remained unaffected and could still operate.

Heavenly Heart Sword Formation, my Heavenly Heart Sword Formation!

His pupils widened at a slowed pace, and his expression gradually turned to shock and fear!

How could he have obtained the Heavenly Heart Sword Formation, and even managed to release it!

Ning Wuxie still stood on the ground, almost motionless, merely thrusting the spirit sword forward.

In an instant, starting from Ning Wuxie, countless sword-qi gusts surged forth from the white light!

Countless sword-qi swarmed like hidden snakes; although their forms were invisible, they could be sensed through the fluctuations of spiritual power and their sharp killing intent.

With the support of the trace of sword intent within Ning Wuxie, these countless sword-qi became even more ferocious, with both speed and sharpness greatly enhanced!

Ning Wuxie’s successful release of the Heavenly Heart Sword Formation, achieving such impressive results, was largely due to that trace of sword intent.

Countless strands of sword-qi, like knives and axes, crazily overwhelmed Jiang Ren!

In just a few breaths, Jiang Ren was drenched in blood!

To Dantai Ying and Li Luobing, everything happened extremely quickly; the white light erupted from Ning Wuxie, followed by the merciless sword-qi gusts howling up.

“Brother Ren!” Li Luobing exclaimed in terror.

In an instant, Jiang Ren’s entire body was tattered, full of holes, with even penetrating wounds appearing in his flesh!

Fear and shock flickered in his eyes, along with a hint of confusion.

The aura of this sword-qi seemed somewhat familiar…

But he could do nothing, at least in that moment.

In the next second, a strand of sword-qi shot straight towards his forehead, producing a dull sound and bursting into a spray of blood.

His eyes rolled back, and his body weakly fell backward.

The origin sword in front of him, infused with immense spiritual power, also instantly retreated back into his body.

He was knocked unconscious! His consciousness was directly extinguished!

Ning Wuxie’s Heavenly Heart Sword Formation had also reached its limit.
