Da Xuan Martial Saint-Chapter 629 - 370: Immortality Severed, Absolute Blade Perished!
Chapter 629: Chapter 370: Immortality Severed, Absolute Blade Perished!
“Caught… caught it!”
“He blocked the Longevity Sword!”
Luan Qiumei and Liu Tong, along with numerous grandmasters, were all shocked as they watched the scene unfold.
Jiang Changsheng’s Longevity Sword, with its challenge to the universe, had broken through his own Heart Gate. That strike had nearly surpassed the pinnacle, breaking into the realm of the peerless. Even characters like Tuoba Xi, who wielded the Absolute Blade, would admit they were a notch below in face of this sword.
As a Qiankun Grandmaster, it was not surprising that Chen Mu could catch such a strike. However, what was unexpected was how effortlessly Chen Mu did it, so casually, without even invoking the Power of Heaven and Earth but merely taking it head-on with his Martial Body alone!
Between those two fingers, the Longevity Sword vibrated with a hum, yet it could not advance even a fraction of an inch.
...
“How could this be…”
Jiang Changsheng was also slightly stunned.
His sword strike, breaking free from fetters, would be difficult for anyone but those in the Blood Exchange Realm to catch so lightly. Even those peerless grandmasters would have to gird themselves as if facing a formidable enemy and reinforce themselves with their Domains.
Chen Mu had not invoked the power of Artistic Conception at all just now. Relying purely on the strength of his Qiankun Martial Body’s physique, he had caught his sword, indicating that the strength of Chen Mu’s Qiankun Martial Body was almost inconceivable, far surpassing that of a pinnacle grandmaster!
But how old was Chen Mu?

Even as a genius, breaking through to the Marrow Cleansing Realm at thirty-three, how could he possibly refine his Qiankun Martial Body to Perfection in such a short time? It simply defied logic!
The cultivation of a Martial Body is a natural process. Even with boundless Heaven and Earth Spiritual Items to aid, one must still consider the body’s pace of transformation and adaptability. It’s impossible to reach Perfection within a year or two.
“You, how did you achieve this?”
Even with Jiang Changsheng’s temperament and the mindset he’d achieved after breaking his restraints, he couldn’t help but be perplexed.
“Small steps accumulate distance, minor streams converge to form rivers and seas.”
Chen Mu straightened his sword with fingers aligned, speaking smoothly, and pushed it forward.
Bang!
Jiang Changsheng felt an overwhelming force bearing down on him. Unable to withstand it, he suddenly flew backward step by step, retreating more than ten steps before finally managing to stop. Qi and blood surged throughout his body, and his right hand trembled violently.
Chen Mu gazed at Jiang Changsheng, his eyes revealing a contemplative expression.
Jiang Changsheng was indeed worthy of being Qin Mengjun’s former opponent. Although always suppressed by Qin Mengjun in the past, the grandmasters that emerged during those twenty years were led by the two of them. Now, Qin Mengjun had stepped into the Blood Exchange Realm, while Jiang Changsheng had also made a half-step forward. The strike he had just delivered had essentially crossed the threshold of a pinnacle grandmaster, reaching the level of the peerless.
In actuality.
If he were not to use the Qiankun Domain, relying solely on the strength of the Qiankun Martial Body, he still wouldn’t be at the height of the Blood Exchange Realm, still within the ‘peerless grandmaster’ level—hence Jiang Changsheng’s sword strike surprised him slightly and merited a slightly higher evaluation. With that mastered step, he was no longer worthless.
But there are disparities even among the peerless.
Jiang Changsheng might have merged his mind and sword into one, surpassing the pinnacle limit with the power of the Longevity Sword, but if he wanted to truly enter the ranks of the peerless stably, it would still require some time to settle.
Or to put it another way, Jiang Changsheng had exerted all his strength to reach this realm, while the force unleashed from Chen Mu’s Qiankun Martial Body in the blink of an eye was inherently peerless. The gap between them was still not one that could be crossed easily.
If Jiang Changsheng could practice his swordsmanship to such a state, he must have endured much tempering and hardship, persevering step by step until he transformed. Likewise, Chen Mu had also progressed through persistent hard cultivation, eventually using a bit of assistance from the system panel to turn these accumulated efforts into a qualitative change, after more than a decade of martial practice, finally arriving at this realm.
“…”
With a sword in hand and a slight heave in his chest, Jiang Changsheng gazed at Chen Mu not far away, his eyes now filled with utmost gravity. At this point, he naturally wouldn’t think of Chen Mu as a junior anymore.
This was a Qiankun Grandmaster, a truly peerless being. Even though he had unleashed his most earnest sword, he could still sense its profound and immense weight. Between those two fingers, there was no sign of employing the Heaven and Earth Wheel Seal, merely relying on the pure strength of his Martial Body and Yuan Gang, Jiang Changsheng had been forcefully repelled!
But.
At the next moment, Jiang Changsheng’s eyes did not dim in the slightest; instead, they shone even brighter. He raised his hand, the three-foot green blade lifting into the air, and in an instant, the void nearly a hundred zhang around was filled with an invisible Sword Intent!
Jiang Changsheng, having broken his fetters and transcended his limits, with his mind and sword united, could support a Sword Dao Domain far surpassing that of an ordinary pinnacle grandmaster. The Power of Heaven and Earth he could utilize and control had also reached the peerless level.
“I have three swords,”
“One Sword Asks the Heart, One Sword Asks the Path, One Sword Asks the Universe!”
Clad in green, Jiang Changsheng stood proudly, his vast and surging Sword Intent spreading rampantly. The limitless Power of Heaven and Earth followed his Sword Intent, gathering and condensing into three ancient swords within the void, converging upon his three-foot green blade.
Chen Mu was extremely strong. Whether a newcomer or not, he indeed was a genuine Qiankun Grandmaster, a peerless figure, and in the future, he could likely be an invincible existence among grandmasters. But at least for now, his sword could knock on the universe!
Whoosh!
Jiang Changsheng leaped forward with his sword, slashing down.
His ancient blade descended, drawing three intermingling beams of splendid sword light. This sword light was radiant, and the force summoned with its swing was no longer just the Power of Heaven and Earth; it fully integrated his Sword Dao will within it.
