Free Web NovelChapter 643: Chapter 643: Heart Sword Technique
This was the first time Su Han had used the Great Luo Divine Spear since obtaining it, and the effect was rather impressive. He delivered the final blow to the Saint Heir of Jiuque, successfully defeating him.
Meanwhile, the spectators who had retreated hundreds of meters away were now numb with shock.
First, it was Yun Jin Holy Maiden, and now the Saint Heir of Jiuque. Both were defeated by the Nineteenth Prince, one after the other. It was truly astonishing. Moreover, the Nineteenth Prince had been fighting continuously without a break. Even so, he still seemed completely at ease, making it impossible for anyone to fathom his limits.
"You’ve lost. This Nine Mountains Holy Sword is now mine!"
Showing no mercy, Su Han reached out and seized the Nine Mountains Holy Sword, capturing it with the Secret of the Soldier Character before storing it in his Bronze Ring.
The Saint Heir of Jiuque’s face turned deathly pale, blood trickling from the corner of his mouth. He clutched his chest, his expression incredibly grim. He knew it was impossible to retrieve the Nine Mountains Holy Sword today unless he used the life-saving treasure given to him by the Holy Master.
But his opponent was the Nineteenth Prince. It wasn’t a matter of whether he could kill him; even if he could, he wouldn’t dare. The death of a prince would undoubtedly bring a cataclysmic disaster to the Spirit Sword Holy Palace, and he dared not provoke the Flying Immortal Great Emperor. freewebnøvel.com
"Since Your Highness likes it, the Nine Mountains Holy Sword can remain in your possession for now. However, I will personally win it back!" the Saint Heir of Jiuque said solemnly. The Nine Mountains Holy Sword was crucial to him, so he naturally wouldn’t give it up easily. But now that it had fallen into Su Han’s hands, the only way to retrieve it was to win it back fair and square.
After speaking, the Saint Heir of Jiuque turned and walked down the mountain. He had lost, even forfeiting his Nine Mountains Holy Sword. There was no longer any point in staying here. He would return to the Spirit Sword Holy Palace, enter seclusion to increase his strength, and then return for another challenge.
The crowd parted like a tide, watching his departure with complicated gazes. They had assumed the Saint Heir of Jiuque would be the ultimate victor of this Mount Hua Sword Discourse and a strong contender for first place, so his defeat was completely unexpected.
Soon, his figure disappeared down the mountain path. Everyone turned their gazes back to the Arena of Sword Discourse. With both Yun Jin Holy Maiden and the Saint Heir of Jiuque defeated, the Nineteenth Prince seemed truly invincible. The title of champion for this Mount Hua Sword Discourse had to be his, right?
WHOOSH!
Just then, a figure leaped onto the Arena of Sword Discourse and landed opposite Su Han. The sight stunned everyone present.
"Who is this, to be so audacious? Didn’t they see that both Yun Jin Holy Maiden and the Saint Heir of Jiuque were defeated? How dare they still challenge the Nineteenth Prince? They must have a death wish!"
"I’ve never seen him before, and he’s so young. Where did this brash youth spring from?"
"The Nineteenth Prince is just too ferocious! The champion’s title has to be his. Everyone else should just step aside."
The crowd buzzed with discussion, their eyes focused on the new figure. Su Han had defeated princes, princesses, Saint Heirs, and Holy Maidens one after another. He could be called nigh invincible among his peers. Who would have the courage to challenge him now?
The person standing before Su Han was none other than the Heartless Saint Heir. He wore a harmless, sunny smile that was both warm and brilliant.
"Your Highness, I’m also very interested in the first-place title, so I’ve boldly taken the stage. I hope you’ll go easy on me in a moment," the Heartless Saint Heir said with a grin, showing no sign of hostility, which won over a lot of goodwill.
"Heart Sword Sacred Palace!" suddenly, Yun Jin Holy Maiden cried out in surprise, her beautiful eyes widening in shock as she stared at the Heartless Saint Heir.
Although she did not recognize the Heartless Saint Heir, she felt a special aura emanating from him. As a member of one of the Three Great Sacred Lands, Yun Jin Holy Maiden was not only familiar with the Spirit Sword Holy Palace but also had a deep understanding of the extremely low-profile Heart Sword Sacred Palace. The Heartless Saint Heir had been hidden in the crowd before, so she hadn’t noticed him. Now that he had taken the stage to issue a challenge, she observed him carefully and finally uncovered his identity.
"What? He’s from the most mysterious Heart Sword Sacred Palace? It’s said that due to their special inheritance, the Heart Sword Sacred Palace only has one member per generation. He’s so young... could he be the Saint Heir of the Heart Sword Sacred Palace?"
"Of course he’s the Saint Heir! I can’t believe the Saint Heir of the Heart Sword Sacred Palace has also appeared. This means the Saint Heirs and Holy Maidens of all Three Great Sacred Lands have gathered. This Mount Hua Sword Discourse is definitely the most prestigious one in recent years."
"This is so thrilling, what a rush! I thought the Nineteenth Prince had it in the bag, but then another genius just pops up. The Heart Sword Sacred Palace uses the heart as a sword and is extremely mysterious. It looks like the Nineteenth Prince has finally met his match."
The crowd gasped in amazement, stunned by the appearance of the Heartless Saint Heir. Although the Heart Sword Sacred Palace only had one member per generation, it was still one of the Three Great Sacred Lands within the Heavenly Sword Dynasty. It naturally had its own profound strengths. The arrival of the Heartless Saint Heir made the race for first place unpredictable once again.
The Nineteenth Prince was considered the biggest dark horse of this Mount Hua Sword Discourse, but then the Heartless Saint Heir burst onto the scene. Both were unexpected contenders. Seeing them face off, everyone felt their hearts clench with a mixture of nervousness and anticipation. freewebnoveℓ.com
Yun Jin Holy Maiden’s gaze fixed intensely on the Heartless Saint Heir. The Heart Sword Sacred Palace uses the heart as a sword; they are utterly mysterious and rarely appear in the world, always keeping a low profile. I can’t believe this generation’s Saint Heir has emerged. It seems he’s ready to accept the trials of the mortal world and temper himself. Their Sacred Palace is so enigmatic that no one knows how their legacy is passed on or even where they are located. Now that the Heartless Saint Heir has appeared, I can use this opportunity to observe their special Heart Sword Technique. It might even help my own path of the sword.
At this moment, everyone was watching the Heartless Saint Heir curiously. They had only ever heard of the Heart Sword Technique and had never witnessed it firsthand. They were extremely curious about just how powerful this technique could be.
"Using the heart as a sword? Interesting. In that case, show me what you’ve got. Let this prince see what it’s all about!" Su Han said, having overheard the crowd’s discussion.
So the person I noticed earlier is actually the Saint Heir of the Heart Sword Sacred Palace. As for the Heart Sword Technique, this is the first I’ve heard of it. I’m rather curious to see how it differs from ordinary swordsmanship.
"Your Highness, you’ve just been through a major battle. Why don’t you rest for a bit?" the Heartless Saint Heir said with a radiant smile, showing consideration for Su Han.
However, Su Han simply shook his head. "No need. You are not my match."
Su Han’s arrogant words continued. In truth, he had not expended much energy. After all, his true strength was at the Fifth Layer of the Supreme Realm, but he had only been fighting with Demonic Qi equivalent to the Second Layer of the Supreme Realm. Therefore, his energy consumption was minimal, and he had sustained no physical injuries whatsoever.
The crowd was already accustomed to Su Han’s arrogance. Seeing his response, the Heartless Saint Heir didn’t press the matter.
"If that is the case, then here I come! Please be careful, Your Highness!"
No sooner had he finished speaking than the smile on the Heartless Saint Heir’s face changed, becoming ferocious and terrifying, as if he were the incarnation of a Fierce Ghost.
