Eternal Blood Emperor-Chapter 537: Comprehending the Sword Soul

"I’m very curious to see how you plan to be disrespectful to me."

Wang Ruoxie gave You Chang a nonchalant smile and spoke.

"Do you think that just because you’ve broken through to the Ninth Layer of the Upper God Realm, you can fight me?"

You Chang’s eyes revealed a chilly smile as he said.

"Whether I can compete with you will be known after the fight."

Wang Ruoxie’s eyes showed a hint of sarcasm as he said, "Or are you afraid to fight?"

"It seems, Wang Ruoxie does not intend to let You Chang off."

Hearing Wang Ruoxie’s words, the crowd inwardly noted.

Wang Ruoxie naturally wouldn’t let You Chang get away, as the guy wanted to use him as a stepping stone to cozy up to Saint Child Yanghui. In that case, he naturally had to make the opponent pay the price.

"Ridiculous, you think I’d fear you?"

You Chang sneered disdainfully, "Were it not for the Saint Institute’s strict rule against killing students, I’d have already taken your head to offer it to Saint Child Yanghui."

"You should be thankful for that. Otherwise, you’d already be a dead man."

Wang Ruoxie sneered back.

Although You Chang was at the Seventh Layer of the Celestial God Realm, with his current strength, Wang Ruoxie found it not at all difficult to kill him.

"I hope your strength is as formidable as your mouth."

A sinister smile appeared in You Chang’s eyes, and then his figure shook as he charged directly at Wang Ruoxie.

In the next instant, a longsword appeared in his hand, unleashing a terrifying sword light.

Soon after, a massive ice sword shadow instantly condensed and slashed towards Wang Ruoxie.

"An Ice Sword Soul, and he’s reached the Third Layer of the Sword Soul Realm."

Feeling the sword soul power contained in You Chang’s strike, Wang Ruoxie’s eyes slightly narrowed.

Although he had comprehended the Thunder Sword Soul long ago, he was still at the First Layer of the Sword Soul Realm. Even though he had never stopped studying the Heaven-Slaying Sword-Drawing Art, he was limited by his Cultivation Realm and unable to elevate his Sword Soul Realm.

His visit to the Enlightenment Hall was intended to comprehend the sword statue and elevate his Sword Soul Realm.

However, even if his Sword Soul Realm couldn’t match the opponent’s, his actual strength was not necessarily weaker and could even be stronger.

"Heaven-Slaying Sword-Drawing Art."

Wang Ruoxie hesitated not a bit and directly transformed the Blood Divine Format into a Blood Sword, slashing towards the opponent.

The Heaven-Slaying Sword-Drawing Art was a Seventh Grade Divine Technique. Even at Wang Ruoxie’s current Ninth Layer of the Upper God Realm, it was difficult to unleash its fullest power.

Nevertheless, using Divine Power as its foundation, the Heaven-Slaying Sword-Drawing Art’s might was amplified by a hundredfold, if not a thousandfold.

Moreover, as his Blood Divine Format had also transformed into a true First Grade Divine Format, the Blood Sword it formed was more than a match for a First Grade Divine Artifact.

Thus, the power of this strike could be said to have reached an extremely terrifying level.

A flash of blood-colored sword light swept through the void in an instant, directly cleaving the ice sword shadow in half, then continuing unabated towards You Chang.

"So strong?"

You Chang’s face changed dramatically, clearly feeling the terrifying power of the opponent’s strike.

The blood-colored sword light magnified in his eyes, threatening to descend upon him.

"Break for me."

You Chang roared furiously, attempting to fend off the blood-colored sword light with his sword.

However, with a sound of shattering, the First Grade Divine Artifact longsword in his hand was reduced to fragments.

At nearly the same moment, the blood-colored sword light struck him.

"Pfft..."

You Chang spewed a large amount of blood, a massive sword mark across his chest where blood continuously gushed forth.

"Too strong. That one sword strike is something not even a regular Ninth Layer Celestial God Realm could withstand."

Witnessing this scene, everyone was in utter shock.

You Chang, at the Seventh Layer of the Celestial God Realm, was utterly defeated by Wang Ruoxie at merely the Ninth Layer of the Upper God Realm with just one sword strike.

"The sword art he cultivates must be above Fifth Grade Divine Techniques."

The Swordsmanship Grandmasters in the crowd, who had also comprehended Sword Souls, looked at Wang Ruoxie with serious expressions.

Even though they could see Wang Ruoxie’s Sword Soul Realm was not high, the power of that one sword strike just now was something even they could hardly withstand.

"Unexpectedly, his inherent strength is also this formidable."

Those who had witnessed Wang Ruoxie illustrate an Array Map as a Tier One Divine Rune Master and easily defeat Yuwen Jian six months ago, now stared in disbelief.

From what they knew, the battle prowess of ordinary Divine Rune Masters couldn’t compare to their peers and weren’t adept in offensive techniques.

Yet, it was unexpected that Wang Ruoxie was not only an outstanding Divine Rune Master in the Path of Divine Patterns but also a terrifyingly powerful Swordsmanship Grandmaster.

"Is my strength satisfactory?"

Wang Ruoxie’s eyes held a teasing expression as he looked at You Chang and slowly spoke.

"What do you want?"

You Chang, now pale-faced, stared at Wang Ruoxie, his voice harsh.

"I told you, be thankful the Saint Institute forbids students from killing each other, or you’d be dead by now."

Wang Ruoxie fixed a cold gaze on You Chang and said icily.

After speaking, he coldly stared at him again and said, "How about you exchange your residence with mine?"

On hearing Wang Ruoxie’s words, You Chang’s eyes twitched, but he nodded, "Alright."

Though he was extremely reluctant, his residence was a luxurious palace, most importantly, filled with thick Spiritual Qi and Divine Power, far superior to Wang Ruoxie’s shabby hut. Yet he couldn’t refuse.

The Saint Institute might prohibit student killings, but he dared not risk it, not knowing if the guy might disregard the rules and kill him anyway.

Without hesitation, You Chang immediately took out the Command Token to his residence and exchanged it with Wang Ruoxie.

"Get lost. If there’s a next time, I won’t be so forgiving."

After putting away the Command Token, Wang Ruoxie growled coldly.

At this, You Chang immediately clutched his wound and stumbled away swiftly.

Although Wang Ruoxie hadn’t killed him outright, that sword strike had harmed his foundation, making swift recovery impossible.

Ignoring the surrounding stares, Wang Ruoxie stepped straight into the Enlightenment Hall.

This time in the Enlightenment Hall, he intended to comprehend the six Laws he mastered to at least the Second Layer, if not beyond.

Moreover, he aimed to deepen his understanding of Sword Soul and elevate its level.

Inside the Enlightenment Hall, Wang Ruoxie wasted no time, sitting in front of a sword-shaped statue, fully focusing on comprehension. 𝒻𝘳ℯℯ𝑤ℯ𝒷𝘯ℴ𝓋ℯ𝘭.𝑐ℴ𝑚

He could feel the sword-shaped statue emanating an extremely terrifying sword intent.

As time passed slowly, his insights into the Sword Soul were rapidly advancing.
