Chapter 595: Evenly Matched

Translator: Transn Editor: Transn

Chen Man stared blankly at Su Mo’s name on the Heaven’s Proud Jade Wall. The whole scene seemed too surreal.

Su Mo, a peerless genius?

It was even amazing that he ranked higher than her! Chen Man thought the whole situation was absolutely ludicrous.

How could a Lv 9 Enlightenment Realm martial artist be more powerful than her?

Wang Zhuo’s face was the most entertaining one in the crowd.

His eyes were wide open, his mouth was agape, and his face twitched uncontrollably. All these things made him look extremely laughable.

“This can’t be!”

“There is no way this could have happened!”

Wang Zhuo kept shaking his head, disbelief was clear within his eyes.

After some time, Wang Zhuo took a deep breath and turned to Chen Man. “Junior Sister, the Heaven’s Proud Jade Wall must have malfunctioned!”

However, he said it without much conviction. The Heaven’s Proud Jade Wall had been standing for centuries, and it was highly unlikely that it had malfunctioned.

A thought suddenly came to him, so he hastily added, “Or Su Mo must have concealed his cultivation. His true cultivation must surely be of the True Darkness Realm! Yes, this must be it!”

Wang Zhuo’s eyes gleamed, as if he had solved this mystery.

Chen Man nodded inwardly at Wang Zhuo’s words. This was indeed the best explanation at the moment.

“He is continuing his challenge!”

“He is aiming for 977th place this time!”

“What is going on? How could he defeat Shen Jie with such a low cultivation?”

The crowd continued their debate excitedly, all curious to see if Su Mo would be able to succeed yet again.

Su Mo reappeared in the same green and misty realm. Not long later, a scrawny young man in black appeared in front of him.

This young man in black looked cold and proud, and he was of Peak Lv 3 True Darkness realm cultivation. From his aura, it was clear that he was stronger than Shen Jie.

This time, Su Mo did not make any attempt at conversation. He immediately launched his attack the moment his opponent appeared.

Four-colored Vital Spirit glittered in his hand, instantly forming a 33-meter-long divine sword.

Swish!

He slashed out, and four-colored sword Qi burst forth, carrying a formidable destructive power. Then, it headed straight for the young man in black.

Similarly, this young man was a swordsman. When he saw Su Mo attack, light gold Dark Force gushed from his hands and formed a golden long sword.

With a flash of golden light, a mighty sword power burst forth and destroyed Su Mo’s sword. This weapon displayed amazing power.

Swoosh!

Su Mo moved like lightning and immediately rushed toward the young man in black. At the same time, he unleashed the power of his physical strength. Dazzling golden scale armor once again covered his body.

“Holy Serenity!” Su Mo shouted as he slashed out again.

A thousand meters of sword Qi shot to the heavens and gushed forth.

This attack was much stronger than his earlier one, and it carried with it an earth-shattering sword power and a piercing sword will. It was enough to slice apart thousand-meter-tall mountains.

This young man in black, Nie Yu, was no pushover either. Not a trace of fear appeared on his face when he saw Su Mo’s attack. He hurtled toward the oncoming sword Qi.

Boom!

Nie Yu raised his long sword. A destructive sword ray burst forth, destroying Su Mo’s sword Qi once again.

“You’re indeed powerful!”

A strong fighting desire rose in Su Mo’s eyes. He did not slow down and continued to charge toward his opponent. This battle would only be meaningful if his opponent was strong enough.

After destroying Su Mo’s sword Qi, Nie Yu continued his charge towards Su Mo. His body also glowed golden and gave off a blinding, dazzling light.

Both Su Mo and Nie Yu charged toward each other at lightning speed and collided with a loud bang resembling two falling comets.

Boom!

There was a deafening explosion as their long swords clashed against each other.

A terrifying shock wave broke out from this event and formed a monstrous air blast that rocked the surroundings with its destructive power.

Swoosh! Swoosh!

They were both thrown back hundreds of meters at the same time.

“Such great strength!” Su Mo was shocked for he felt that his arms were tingling and slightly numb.

He could tell his opponent was a talent who cultivated both Qi and physical strength. What took him by surprise was the fact that they were both evenly matched in terms of strength.

“Again!” Su Mo roared and charged toward Nie Yu.

Roar!

Huge Archean Dragonesque Elephant shadows flashed across Su Mo’s body. This time, he unleashed the full power of his physical strength. Little golden elephants began to dance across his skin.

“Fight!”

An urge to fight was also clear on Nie Yu’s cold face as he moved to meet Su Mo again.

Boom! Boom! Boom!

They fought a simple and direct battle. They attacked ferociously. They were constantly clashing and then breaking apart.

In the blink of an eye, they had exchanged hundreds of blows.

“Amazing!” Su Mo exclaimed. His arms were already numb, and he was soon not going to be able to wield the long sword in his hand for much longer.

However, he did not lose ground. They both remained evenly matched.

His opponent must not be feeling much better than him!

Although Su Mo marvelled at his opponent’s strength, he was not too surprised. Nie Yu was ranked one place behind Xuan Feng. He was indeed not as strong as him.

When Su Mo had initially battled Xuan Feng at Skymoon Imperial City, he had not been Xuan Feng’s match if it hadn’t been for the Three Secret Techniques.

Swoosh! Swoosh! Swoosh!

With a flash of light, three Phantom Avatars appeared beside him.

Since he was not able to defeat Nie Yu via a direct attack, he was about to change tactics!

“If I can call upon my Phantom Avatars, I must be able to use the Three Secret Techniques here as well!” Su Mo thought.

While he mulled over it, both he and his three Phantom Avatars had already surrounded Nie Yu.

Swoosh! Swoosh! Swoosh!

All four of them attacked at the same time and sent four dazzling beams of four-colored sword Qi forth, completely surrounding Nie Yu.

Nie Yu could not escape, nor could he destroy all four sword Qi at once. He decided to go on the defensive.

With a wave of the golden long sword in his hand, thick layers of sword curtains formed a protective curtain around him.

In the next instant, four rays of sword Qi hit the sword curtain.

Puff! Puff!

There was a sound of something being torn as the sword curtain was slashed open. Four rays of sword Qi landed squarely on Nie Yu’s Body-protection Dark Force.

Boom!

Nie Yu groaned as he was thrown back dozens of meters like a bomb.

“I wonder if he’s injured.” Su Mo stared at Nie Yu’s figure, frowning slightly.

Nie Yu looked disheveled, but he remained unharmed. His skin gave off a soft golden glow.

Su Mo knew that his opponent’s physical defense must be incredible. His Body-protection Dark Force allowed his defensive strength to be stunning.

“I guess I’ll need to attack at close-range in order to break past his defense, or use the Three Secret Techniques!” Su Mo thought.

He was not prepared to use the Three Secret Techniques, for he did not want to exhaust his body’s essence, qi and spirit just for the sake of being on the List of Top 1,000 Talents.

“Die!” Su Mo roared. Together with his three Phantom Avatars, he charged toward Nie Yu.

Swoosh! Swoosh! Swoosh!

Four rays of sword Qi shot through the void, tore through heaven and earth with formidable power, and headed straight for Nie Yu.
