Shengui Changsheng: Start from Zhenwuwei and add some points to cultivate immortality

Wuhen's pupils contracted sharply as he frantically activated his secret technique, his figure blurring as he tried to merge back into the shadows.

However, within the realm of the setting sun, which embodies the eternal stillness, no shadow can hide!

"puff!"

The tip of the sword gently touched Wuhen's brow.

No blood flowed out; only a pure soul force was instantly extinguished and absorbed by the silent sword intent.

Wuhen's body stiffened, the light in his eyes quickly dimmed, and he fell straight backward, his breath gone.

Fu Shaoping wins in the third round!

He still didn't use his natal flying sword, Jingji. He only relied on the Flowing Fire Sword and the increasingly profound Sunset Sword Domain to defeat the notoriously difficult rogue cultivator, Wuhen!

After a brief silence, a deafening murmur of discussion erupted outside the venue!
"We won! We won again!"

"Even Wuhen was defeated! Just how strong is his sword domain?"

"There's no end in sight! Just how many more tricks is he hiding?"

On the high platform, the elders of each sect displayed varying expressions. Several elders of the Qingxuan Sect looked pleased, while the elders of the other sects wore solemn expressions. Shen Qingshan remained expressionless, but a barely perceptible smile flashed deep within his eyes.

Xiao Lie looked at Fu Shaoping as he walked out of the dueling area and clenched his fist: "Well done! Now the top four are the three of us!"

Fu Shaoping followed his gaze and saw that Ling Juexiao had also just easily defeated his opponent and was coldly looking in his direction. The four semi-finalists were now determined: Fu Shaoping of Qingxuan Sect, Ling Juexiao of Tianjian Sect, Xiao Lie of Lihuo Sword Sect, and a female cultivator from the South China Sea's "Tingchao Sword Pavilion" named "Luo Li," whose swordsmanship was like the tide, continuous and unending, and should not be underestimated.

The real battle of the titans is about to unfold in the semifinals!
Fu Shaoping could feel that Ling Juexiao's sword intent, which was almost tangible, had already locked onto him.

He looked back without fear.

In the next battle, no matter who the opponent is, he will give it his all.

The summit of the heavens is right before my eyes!
The four finalists were determined, and the atmosphere on the dueling arena reached its climax. All eyes were focused on the sword monument, awaiting the semi-final matchups.

Radiance flows, names are fixed—

First match: Fu Shaoping of Qingxuan Sect vs. Xiao Lie of Lihuo Sword Sect!
Second match: Ling Juexiao of the Heavenly Sword Sect versus Luo Li of the Listening Tide Sword Pavilion!
"Hahaha! It's finally our turn!" Xiao Lie burst into a hearty laugh, his fighting spirit erupting like a volcano, his scorching sword intent soaring into the sky, turning half the sky crimson! He strode towards Fu Shaoping, his eyes burning with intense flames: "Fu Shaoping! We weren't satisfied on the Heavenly Ladder, let's settle this on the Sword Debate Platform! This time, I won't hold back in the slightest!"

Fu Shaoping could feel Xiao Lie's pure and fervent fighting spirit, the persistence and pride of a sword cultivator. He took a deep breath, and the chaotic sword essence within his body began to surge. The Sunset Sword Intent was held back but not released, silently colliding with Xiao Lie's Blazing Fire Sword Intent in the void.

“That suits me perfectly.” Fu Shaoping’s tone was calm, yet carried an undeniable firmness.

The two simultaneously stepped into the largest central "Heavenly" sword-fighting area. The moment the array's protective barrier rose, all the noise from the outside world seemed to be shut out.

Without saying a word, Xiao Lie was the first to speak!

"Blazing Sword Domain - The God of Fire Descends!"

Boom! The scorching sword domain instantly unfolded, even more solid and violent than when he fought Fu Shaoping before! A colossal phantom composed entirely of crimson flames materialized behind him, wielding a flaming giant sword and radiating a terrifying pressure capable of scorching the heavens and boiling the seas! The temperature of the entire area soared dramatically, the ground began to melt, and the air distorted!

"Take my first sword strike, 'Burning the Heavens and Boiling the Seas'!"

Xiao Lie and the illusory figure of the God of Fire swung their swords in unison! A crimson sword aura that stretched across the heavens and earth, like the Milky Way pouring down from the sky, carried an all-consuming heat and violence, and crushed towards Fu Shaoping! Before the sword aura even arrived, the scorching air wave had already caused Fu Shaoping's protective aura to fluctuate violently!

Faced with this powerful, fierce, and wide-ranging attack, Fu Shaoping's eyes sharpened. He knew that probing was pointless; only strength could meet strength!

"Sunset Sword Domain - A myriad of rays of light!"

The Chaotic Sword Domain unfolds at full power! The three realms of dawn, flowing clouds, and setting sun evolve and cycle at an unprecedented speed, with dazzling rosy light, churning seas of clouds, and a sluggish setting sun! Within the Sword Domain, a world of its own is formed, forcibly resisting, dividing, and purifying the scorching sword intent that burns the heavens and boils the seas!
At the same time, the Flowing Fire Sword in his hand emitted a long, impassioned cry, and chaotic sword essence poured into it!

"The first rays of dawn—a breathtaking sight at daybreak!"

Body and sword become one, transforming into a chaotic rainbow that tears through the sea of ​​fire and brings dawn. Instead of retreating, it advances and crashes headlong into the strongest point of the crimson sword energy!
Take a break!

"boom--!!!"

The dazzling light and the sword energy collided violently! Like two meteors colliding! Blinding light and terrifying energy shockwaves swept across the entire area! The array's protective barrier groaned under the strain, twisting violently!

As the light faded, both men were thrown back. Fu Shaoping's face paled slightly, and Xiao Lie's breath caught in his throat.

"Good! That's powerful!" Xiao Lie laughed instead of getting angry, his fighting spirit growing even stronger. "Watch this move! 'Sparkling Fire'!"

His sword technique changed again, and countless tiny crimson sparks burst forth from the phantom of the God of Fire. As if they had a life of their own, they shot towards Fu Shaoping from all directions along various strange trajectories! These sparks seemed weak, but they contained extremely unstable explosive energy. Once touched, they would trigger a chain explosion!

Fu Shaoping unleashed the Flowing Cloud Step to its fullest extent, his figure weaving and refracting through the dense shower of sparks. His Flowing Fire Sword danced, transforming into a dense net of swords that detonated and annihilated any approaching sparks in advance. However, there were too many sparks, and their trajectories were too treacherous. Some still managed to slip through the net and collide with his protective aura, triggering violent explosions that sent his blood and qi churning.

"We can't just defend!" Fu Shaoping's mind raced, and his swordplay suddenly changed, "Thousands of Flowing Clouds—Transform into Sword!"

The Flowing Cloud Sword Intent, originally intended for defense and combat, now transformed into countless incomparably sharp cloud-like sword threads, actively meeting the crimson sparks. Instead of detonating them, it used exquisite control to entangle, envelop, and assimilate them! Immediately, these sparks, enveloped by the cloud-like energy, turned around and, guided by his sword momentum, like loyal soldiers, changed direction and surged back towards Xiao Lie!

Use the other person's way to repay the other person's body!
Xiao Lie's pupils contracted, not expecting Fu Shaoping's control over sword intent to be so exquisite! He roared, and the illusory image of the Fire God clasped its hands together, and a condensed wall of fire rose up, blocking and extinguishing all the incoming sparks!
However, just as his old strength was exhausted and the defensive firewall was raised, Fu Shaoping seized that fleeting opportunity!

The silent sword intent erupted without reservation for the first time on the sword-fighting stage!

"The setting sun—a startling silence!"

An eternal, annihilating aura, seemingly emanating from an ancient ice plain, freezing time and space, and ending everything, instantly enveloped Xiao Lie and his Fire God Sword Domain like an invisible domain! Xiao Lie felt the boiling Fire Sword Essence around him suddenly halt, as if a basin of ten-thousand-year-old icy water had been poured over it, making its circulation extremely sluggish! The raging Fire God phantom also instantly slowed down, its flames flickering erratically, showing signs of extinguishing! Even more terrifying was that this sword intent aimed directly at his sword heart, filling him with a profound terror and despair that "everything will eventually return to annihilation!"

"What kind of sword intent is this?!" Xiao Lie was shocked and frantically activated the Blazing Fire Sword Technique, trying to dispel this icy power.

But would Fu Shaoping give him the chance? The Flowing Fire Sword, carrying a supreme strike that combined three realms of intent, seemed to traverse the void and instantly pierced Xiao Lie's chest!
"The rosy clouds break—reincarnation!"

This sword strike was no longer a simple triple wave; it truly and initially merged the vitality of the morning glow, the trajectory of the flowing clouds, and the desolation of the setting sun into one, transforming into a chaotic sword aura containing a trace of the true meaning of reincarnation! Wherever the sword aura passed, it seemed as if there was an alternation of birth and death, and the cycle of all things!

Xiao Lie roared, pouring all the remaining essence of the Li Huo Sword into the sword. The phantom of the Fire God let out a final roar and swung the sword to meet the attack head-on!

"Fire of Departure - Annihilation!"

Crimson and chaotic, two completely different sword energies collided once again in the air!

This time, there was no earth-shattering explosion.

The chaotic sword energy was like a miniature millstone of reincarnation, gradually grinding, decomposing, and absorbing the all-consuming fire sword energy! Xiao Lie's Extinction Sword appeared powerless in the face of that sword energy containing the true meaning of reincarnation!
"Crack!"

The crimson longsword in Xiao Lie's hand let out a mournful cry, and a fine crack appeared on its blade! He himself was struck as if by a heavy blow, and he suddenly spat out a mouthful of blood. The flames around him instantly went out, the illusory image of the Fire God dissipated, and he was sent flying backward, crashing heavily onto the array's light shield before sliding to the ground.

He struggled to stand up, but spat out several more mouthfuls of blood, his breath becoming extremely weak, clearly indicating that he had no strength left to fight.

Fu Shaoping sheathed his sword and stood there, his face somewhat pale. The continuous use of the Silence Sword Intent and the initially fused Reincarnation Sword had taken a heavy toll on him.

He walked up to Xiao Lie and extended his hand.

Xiao Lie looked at him, his face showing no resentment, only a sense of relief and exhilaration at meeting his match. He grabbed Fu Shaoping's hand, used the leverage to stand up, wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth, and grinned, "Damn it... your sword intent... is really powerful... I lost, I admit defeat!"

Fu Shaoping also smiled slightly: "Senior Brother Xiao's Blazing Sword has also benefited me greatly."

The two exchanged a smile, showing mutual respect despite being rivals.

After a brief silence, a deafening roar of cheers and exclamations erupted from the sidelines!

Fu Shaoping wins! He advances to the finals!

All eyes were now on the other semi-final match.

There, the battle between Ling Juexiao and Luo Li was also nearing its end.

Ling Juexiao hovered in mid-air, his body enveloped in pure, flawless sword energy, as if he had become one with the ancient longsword in his hand. His eyes were cold and devoid of any emotion as he simply thrust out his sword.

"Tian Gang - Break Evil".

A pure white sword light, condensed to its extreme and seemingly capable of severing cause and effect and destroying all laws, instantly tore apart Luo Li's continuous sword momentum like a tide and struck the tip of her sword.

"clang!"

The longsword in Luo Li's hand, which resembled a blue crystal, snapped in two! Her face turned pale, and she staggered backward, a trickle of blood escaping from the corner of her mouth.

"I lost." Luo Li readily admitted defeat, cupping her hands in surrender.

Ling Juexiao sheathed his sword, not even glancing at her. His icy gaze pierced through the formation and locked onto Fu Shaoping, who had just won.

In the final battle, Fu Shaoping of the Qingxuan Sect will face off against Ling Juexiao of the Tianjian Sect!
The two strongest sword cultivators in this year's sword competition will finally settle their score at the top of the sky!

The emotions of everyone in the entire Sky Dome Mountain were ignited to the extreme!
Fu Shaoping felt the cold and oppressive gaze and slowly straightened his spine.

His silent sword emitted a yearning hum in his dantian.

The final battle has arrived. The final showdown!
Without any embellishment, the atmosphere of the entire Sky Dome Mountain froze solid when Fu Shaoping and Ling Juexiao stepped onto the central sword-fighting platform. All the clamor subsided, and countless gazes focused on this moment, witnessing the awarding of the highest honor to the younger generation of sword cultivators.

Ling Juexiao, dressed in white robes as pure as snow, had a face as cold and stern as ice that had stood for millennia. He exuded a pure and unadulterated sword intent, as if he himself were a divine sword drawn from its sheath, ready to pierce the heavens. He looked at Fu Shaoping with an unwavering gaze, only a detached indifference as if looking down upon an ant.

"Your sword is not bad. But, this ends here." His voice was cold and devoid of any emotion.

Fu Shaoping's blue robe trembled slightly, his expression calm as still water. Unlike Ling Juexiao's dazzling sharpness, his aura was restrained, with chaotic radiance flowing around him, like a bottomless abyss.

"How can you know the limits of a sword if you haven't tried it?" he replied calmly.

There was no referee, no instructions. The moment their momentum reached its peak, the battle erupted!
Ling Juexiao made the first move! He didn't even move, but simply pointed forward with his fingers like a sword!
"Heavenly Gang Sword Qi".

A pure white sword aura, as condensed as silk yet faster than lightning, ignored spatial distance and instantly appeared before Fu Shaoping's brow! Within the sword aura was an unparalleled will to sever everything and annihilate all laws!

Fast! Ruthless! Accurate!
Fu Shaoping's pupils contracted slightly, and his Flowing Fire Sword blocked the attack in the blink of an eye!

"Ding!"

A crisp, clear clang rang out! Fu Shaoping felt an incredibly sharp force, seemingly capable of piercing through any defense, travel through the sword, causing his wrist to go numb and his body to involuntarily take a half-step back!

What pure and sharp sword energy! This Heavenly Gang Sword Energy seems to be of a quality no less than his Chaos Sword Essence!

"The power of an ant." Ling Juexiao commented indifferently, his fingers tapping repeatedly!
"Boo! Hah! Hah!"

Dozens, even hundreds, of Heavenly Gang Sword Qi, like a sudden storm, shot towards Fu Shaoping from all directions, following various mysterious trajectories! Each sword qi locked onto a vital point, its power comparable to a full-force strike from a Foundation Establishment Grand Perfection cultivator!
Fu Shaoping pushed his Flowing Cloud Steps and Dawn Sword Intent to their limits, his figure transforming into a chaotic stream of light amidst the rain of swords, shifting and dodging, his Flowing Fire Sword dancing like a wheel, deflecting, parrying, or shattering each sword aura! However, Ling Juexiao's sword aura seemed endless, growing stronger and denser with each passing moment! Gradually, it formed a cage of pure white sword aura, continuously compressing Fu Shaoping's space to move!
"Your struggles are futile." Ling Juexiao's voice remained icy as he slowly raised the ancient longsword in his hand. "I'll show you what true—Sword Soul Power—is!" (End of Chapter)
