Chapter 131: Slap in the Face with Power!
Wow!
Qi Huang pleaded for Qin Zi, and everyone was taken aback!
Qin Zi was also stunned, then realized—it was because of Shui Qinghan.
However, for Qi Huang to take the initiative to plead for him at such a moment, it showed his extraordinary demeanor.
Whether sincere or not, at least he knows how to win people's hearts. No wonder Shui Qinghan would follow him so faithfully.
"This person is arrogant by nature, not knowing the weight of things. If I indulge him this time, who knows what trouble he might cause in the future."
Jiang Shennong looked at Qi Huang and said indifferently, "But since you've spoken on his behalf, I can't be too unkind... Let's do this, if he can take one sword from me, I will let this matter go."
"What if he can't take it?"
Qi Huang asked.
"Heh, given his previous insolence, if he can't even take one sword... doesn't he deserve to die?"
Jiang Shennong sneered coldly.
Immediately, everyone's breath hitched!
They saw that Jiang Shennong seemed to make a concession, but his killing intent hadn't diminished, determined to put Qin Zi to death.
Because in his eyes, to kill Qin Zi... one sword was enough.
"Brother Jiang, could you..."
Qi Huang still wanted to plead, but Jiang Shennong interrupted directly, "No need to say more! I've already given you face, I hope you don't push it, or it won't look good on you!"
Upon hearing this, Qi Huang said no more.
He turned his head and looked apologetically at Shui Qinghan.
Shui Qinghan returned a grateful look— the Young Master has already done his best to plead for someone unrelated.
Now, they could only hope Qin Zi could withstand this sword.
At this moment, Jiang Shennong slowly rose into the air under the support of numerous Sword Energy, overlooking Qin Zi, and said indifferently, "Did you hear clearly?"
Qin Zi frowned and asked, "Are you really just going to strike once?"
"One sword means one sword."
Jiang Shennong said indifferently, but his eyes carried a hint of cold mockery—you think it's too few? Afraid you can't bear it!
"One sword is not enough."
Qin Zi raised his head and said seriously.
Jiang Shennong frowned.
Qin Zi said solemnly, "Really not enough."
"Reckless!"
Such an expression undoubtedly became a provocation in Jiang Shennong's eyes, and immediately, Jiang Shennong snorted coldly and drew his sword.
Wow!!
This sword had no name and seemed just ordinary, but when it was slashed out, sword energy gathered all over the sky, forming a thousand-meter-long sword light, brilliant and magnificent, like the Milky Way hanging upside down!
One sword swept through the sky, indestructible!
Yet, Qin Zi's face remained calm, only to see him stomp his right foot, a golden giant shadow spreading out from behind him.
In an instant, it expanded to a height of a thousand feet!
This giant shadow was in the likeness of Qin Zi but appeared more majestic and solemn, like a deity.
Moreover, on the body of this giant shadow, ten halos enveloped it, dazzling and astonishing, sacred beyond measure!
"One sword is really not enough."
Qin Zi slowly raised a middle finger, and the giant shadow behind him mirrored the action, with the middle finger blocking in front of him.
"Ding——"
The next moment, that terrifying sword light roared in, striking the middle finger of that giant shadow. With a crisp sound, the terrifying impact spread with the light, making it hard to open one's eyes.
"Crack!"
A sharp sound was heard.
Everyone struggled to open their eyes, only to see that the sword light had already dissipated, and the tip of Qin Zi's giant shadow's middle finger suddenly broke off a small segment, like a snow-capped mountain being obliquely sliced, slowly sliding off...
"Hiss hiss!!"
"This, this is..."
"A fingernail?!!"
"Such a terrifying sword, and it only cut off a piece of the fingernail?!"
Everyone gasped.
Besides shock, there was only shock.
At this moment, Jiang Shennong, after a brief moment of shock and astonishment, his face became extremely gloomy, staring fiercely at Qin Zi.
"I said one sword isn't enough, but you wouldn't listen."
Qin Zi spread his fingers, ten fingers stretching out, with a playful smile, "Didn't you see I have ten fingers? Who trims only one nail? At the very least, it should be symmetrical on both hands, right?"
"Hiss!!"
Everyone gasped again.
Trimming nails!
This kind of words, he dared to say them out loud, it was completely meant to humiliate Jiang Shennong to death.
Jiang Shennong, being the Body of Ten Thousand Swords, had originally sworn solemnly to kill with one sword strike. Now, under everyone's watchful eyes, it had turned into a nail-clipping moment. One can only imagine how ashamed and embarrassed Jiang Shennong felt inside.
"Crack, crack, crack."
Jiang Shennong clenched his left hand tightly, making cracking sounds. His pride was shattering, and his self-esteem was burning, pushing him to the brink of madness.
However, he was trying hard to restrain himself.
After all, he had said earlier he would only use one sword strike; if he went back on his word now, it would be like slapping his own face.
But just then, Qin Zi "generously" threw a few Spirit Stones, smiling as he said, "Though your skills are lacking, you still deserve the payment, take it."
Bang!
Jiang Shennong's heart completely exploded.
He looked coldly at Qin Zi, murderous intent boiling over as he said, "You are courting death!!"
At this moment, he couldn't care less about losing face because he was being humiliated like this, and if he endured it, he would still be ridiculed!
Since that's the case, why hold back any longer?!
"Ten Thousand Swords Divine Tribulation!"
Jiang Shennong let out a low roar, and his body radiated a bright light, as countless sword shadows appeared in the surrounding void.
With a wave of his right hand holding the sword, these sword shadows were drawn together, forming a massive river of swords, rushing towards Qin Zi.
"Crash!"
Each sword in the river was incredibly sharp; when tens of thousands of swords gathered together, they could kill gods and demons alike.
And Qin Zi did not dare to be careless.
He took a deep breath, sucked the giant Dharma Aspect into his body, then his aura increased dramatically, with a layer of immortal golden light shining on his body surface.
"Break!"
He threw a punch, a golden torrent surged forward with an unstoppable stance, tearing apart the river of swords straightaway.
At this moment, Jiang Shennong, following the river of swords, instantly arrived in front of Qin Zi, sweeping out with one sword.
"Clang!!"
Qin Zi's right hand was covered with a layer of golden light; as he punched out, the light of the punch met the sword shadow, making a muffled sound, and the shock wave spread.
Crash!
Jiang Shennong was blown backward dozens of meters, then tapped the air with his right foot and charged out like a cheetah. His body refracted in the air, astonishingly duplicating into dozens of figures, attacking Qin Zi from all directions.
"Immortal Golden Bell!"
A Golden Bell appeared outside Qin Zi's body. This was taught to him by his father, who didn't teach him too profound Divine Techniques, saying one shouldn't aim too high.
Therefore, although he had many high-level Divine Techniques, he always focused on cultivating the one his father passed on to him.
"Clang, clang, clang, clang!"
Streak after streak of sword light struck the Golden Bell, like a storm lashing on an iron basin, creating a dense sound, with countless golden fragments sputtering out, and the Golden Bell was marked with ever-deepening sword scars.
"Hell... Fire Lotus!"
Qin Zi let out a low roar, then suddenly leaped up, and the Golden Bell overhead automatically broke open a hole, allowing him to pass through it, ascending rapidly for several hundred meters, then throwing down the condensed Fire Lotus.
"Boom——"
A violent explosion sounded, the sky turned into a sea of fire, and the terrifying shock wave spread out.
Bang!
Jiang Shennong's dozens of figures were covered by the explosion; one by one, they returned to the main body, which then spat a mouthful of blood and was thrown backward.
"Strike while you're down!"
Qin Zi spun around, transforming into a golden tornado, with the lower end of the tornado like a drill, crashing towards Jiang Shennong.
"Wishful thinking!"
At the critical moment, a Sword Energy screen appeared outside Jiang Shennong's body, colliding with the golden tornado.
Moreover, Jiang Shennong, facing upwards, suddenly raised his right hand, with two fingers together, pointing out upwards.
"Boom——"
A gigantic sword pillar shot up to the sky, piercing through the tornado, like a long chopstick skewering a piece of corn.
"Crash..."
The rotation of the tornado abruptly stalled for a moment, then slowly rotated a few more times before collapsing with a bang.
And at this moment, from the center of the shattered tornado, a figure swooped down, executing a palm technique from the sky!!
"Overturn the Heavens and Earth!"
As this palm came down, Jiang Shennong instinctively crossed his hands over his chest to form a shield.
However, the next moment, a dragon made of soil surged up from below, swallowing him from below without giving him time to react.
Bang, bang, bang, bang, bang!
At this point, Qin Zi's palm slammed on the head of the earth dragon; as his body crushed downward, the earth dragon exploded segment by segment from head to tail!
After the earth dragon completely exploded, Qin Zi withdrew his palm, backflipped, and lightly landed on the ground, while at this time, the clothes around him turned into ashes, revealing his well-defined muscles.
Ahead was a pit a hundred meters wide.
And Jiang Shennong, with his right hand leaning on a golden longsword, knelt on one knee in the pit, hair disheveled, head hanging low, blood dripping from his mouth...
