129 Saint Swords?!
The Sword Saint Ling Changsheng was now fighting furiously with Ye Fan and he was shouting, "When I saw you, you are merely a half-step 5th realm golden celestial. Now you are a full 5th realm golden celestial now? Are you fooling me or what?"
He was a 6th realm golden supremacy and he could not believe that he was unable to gain an advantage in cultivation strength over Ye Fan.
Against Ye Fan, he had changed three divine swords so far.
At first, it was his mortal-step divine sword before he switched it to his earth-step divine sword to match Ye Fan's earth-step divine sword that was in his hands.
But still, he could not even gain an advantage over Ye Fan.
He was now red-faced.
And then he was forced to use a heaven-step divine sword to fight Ye Fan instead but Ye Fan was still able to handle his attacks with ease, even though he was defending most of the time.
His Sword Slave Qiu Yuehua had warned him that he may not be able to defeat Ye Fan if he did not use a heaven-step divine sword.
She was wrong.
He still could not defeat Ye Fan even with a heaven-step divine sword!
It was because Ye Fan had now advanced into a full golden celestial now and he had also consumed the Dao Fruit and his inner spiritual sea was also strengthened.
However, the Divine Tree that was within Ye Fan's inner spiritual sea was also strengthened as well by the Dark Void Metal and this furthered increased Ye Fan's profound strength.
Very few cultivators that were at Ye Fan's cultivation realm were able to contest with him now and even those higher than a cultivation realm than Ye Fan may not be able to defeat him too.
However, Sword Saint Ling Changsheng was not an ordinary 6th realm golden supremacy and he was superior to most of his same realm cultivation realm.
Moreover, he had not truly lost to Ye Fan yet as he still has many profound arts and techniques that he could use.
Right now, he was merely trying to gain an advantage over to Ye Fan by comparing his profound strength and speed against Ye Fan.
And to his dismay, this Ye Fan was a match for him!
When Ye Fan was fighting with Sword Saint Ling Changsheng, he was actually quite astonished at how fast the strokes of his opponent were; in a flicker of an eye, the Sword Saint Ling Changsheng could display 3 quick and powerful strokes.
Even if Ye Fan could match the Sword Saint Ling Changsheng's speed attack, he would lose speed in trying to retract back his attacks to refocus his own defense again.
But he was actually able to match the speed attacks and powerful strokes of the Sword Saint Ling Changsheng as he was being attacked.
He knows that the Sword Saint Ling Changsheng was trying to rip his defenses apart by throwing himself off balance with his fierce and fast sword attacks.
It was only then that Ye Fan had realized that the daily 3 hours carving of the wooden doll had given him precision over his profound strength as he had to carve the wooden doll carefully and his hands had also need to be extremely firm.
Ye Fan thought: This is all thanks to Senior Ji Yuan's secret sword training for me that I did not lose my stabilization under the fierce attacks of my opponent…
Most of the cultivators that they had encountered did not want to mess around with them as their fighting was extremely fierce and moreover, they were being tailed by 3 other maidens who were also strong cultivators at the same time.
Just like this, they had flashed from towering pillars to pillars as they manoeuvred through the spaces of the great halls.
It was not before long that they had stumbled into the inner hall where the masked Ji Yuan and the Great Virtuous Saintess Qin Qifen was exhorting the many angry cultivators.
At this moment, the masked Ji Yuan had already stepped forward to challenge the Holy Saintess Chen Yuyan, Saintess Chen Sisi, the West Witch Saintess Mo Yunxi and the Charming Saintess Luo Yingying.
Fairy Xuan Xueqi's heavenly looks had immediately attracted the attention of many men and maidens as she burst forth into view.
The Charming Saintess Luo Yingying gasped softly when she saw Ye Fan and Fairy Xuan Xueqi; it was because she had of course recognized them and as a matter of fact, she had partied with them some time ago too. Moreover, she was supposed to seduce this Ye Fan.
She was quite startled that Ye Fan had become a full-step golden celestial now and that he was also able to contest with the Sword Saint Ling Changsheng.
She had also recognized this Sword Saint Ling Changsheng of course as he was quite renowned for his sword skills in the Dragontooth Continent.
This Sword Saint Ling Changsheng was a 6th realm golden supremacy and he had a heaven-step divine sword in his hand but he could not gain an advantage over a junior 5th realm golden celestial?
She was actually quite astonished.
The Holy Saintess Chen Yuyan was also gasping softly when she had recognized Ye Fan and Fairy Xuan Xueqi.
She muttered silently: They are still alive?
But she looked a little surprise that Fairy Xuan Xueqi was still at the 5th realm cultivation while she had become a great saintess. As for Ye Fan, while she was not surprised that he had become a golden celestial as he had always shown potential to be a true cultivator. If he was still alive then it was not surprising that he would be a golden celestial.
But she was surprised that he was not only a low ranking golden celestial but he still looked so young after 1000 years had passed.
If he had advanced in his cultivation realm, then it would not be a surprise to her that he would look so young.
But after 1000 years, he was merely a low level 5th realm cultivator.
Now, this was a surprise to her.
Moreover, Fairy Xuan Xueqi also did not advance too in her cultivation realm and she looked the same as before.
What had happened to them 1000 years ago?
Toward Ye Fan, the Holy Saintess Chen Yuyan had always felt a sense of guilt toward him as she had made use of many people to be a true cultivator and to climb to her present position of power.
Without Ye Fan, she could not even pass the entrance examination to become a protégé of the Profound Cloud Sect and obtained all the necessary cultivation resources to cultivate.
Also, he had saved her life too.
Her biggest regret in her life was actually Ye Fan and maybe it was also because he was the only man that she could not be able to seduce with her charms.
At this moment, Fairy Xuan Xueqi had noticed the masked Ji Yuan; even though he may be masked but she had recognized his unique profound signature anyway because he was her papa.
So she turned and shouted panicky to him, "Papa! Help Ye Fan!"
And then she had tried to bypass the Sword Slave Qiu Yuehua who had intercepted her to say coolly, "No, you can't intervene in their fight."
The Sword Saint Ling Changsheng had suddenly shouted over to his Sword Slave Qiu Yuehua, "Yuehua! I need my White Tigris Divine Sword now!"
Sword Slave Qiu Yuehua gasped softly as she turned to him to say, "You are serious?"
The Sword Saint Ling Changsheng shouted back immediately, "Yes, now!"
Sword Slave Qiu Yuehua nodded as she flashed a white and beautiful sword toward him immediately.
In that very instant, the Sword Saint Ling Changsheng had switched swords once again and he had a glowing white sword that was in his hand and it was a saint-step divine sword!
This startled all the onlookers as they gasped at the appearance of a saintly divine sword that was suddenly in the hands of the Sword Saint Ling Changsheng's hands.
"He actually has a saintly divine sword?!"
"He is too strong!"
"It seems that the Great Virtuous Saintess Qin Qifen isn't the only one with a saintly divine sword…"
All of a sudden, Ye Fan had also displayed the saint-step divine sword that Fairy Xuan Xueqi had given him.
In the past, Ye Fan's profound strength was not enough to wield a saint-step divine sword but now he was strong enough!
The sudden appearance of a saint-step divine sword in Ye Fan's hands startled and stunned many of the onlookers.
This included the Sword Saint Ling Changsheng who could not believe his very eyes and he was forced to say coldly, "Very good. You are indeed a worthy opponent!"
