Chaos Sword Body Technique: The Sword God is invincible!
Chapter 379 Dugu Sheng

Now, only one word could describe Si Yeming’s condition.

Tragic!

Defeated by Lin Yi twice in a row.

Si Yeming, one of the Top Ten Saints within the Inner Sect, a Heavenly Pride, was thoroughly trampled underfoot by Lin Yi.

And after Lin Yi had defeated Si Yeming twice,

the attitude of most saints who had previously held grievances against Lin Yi underwent a tremendous transformation.

"Xu Qing, a peerless genius indeed, truly deserves to be the number one Sword Dao Genius of our Heavenly Sword Holy Land."

"No wonder Wan Huayu would fall for Brother Xu Qing. Who wouldn’t love such a distinguished Heavenly Pride? Which woman could remain unmoved?"

"How could such a person be a despicable villain? Do you believe it? Because I certainly don’t!"

"..."

In this battle, the terrifying strength and unmatched dignity shown by Lin Yi had conquered everyone’s hearts.

On the other hand, Si Yeming, who remained arrogant even in defeat, was granted a second chance by Brother Xu Qing but still couldn’t escape a miserable end.

Compared to Lin Yi, who appeared more like a gentleman of integrity, Si Yeming was merely someone who spread slanderous rumors.

Regarding the dramatic 180-degree shift in his reputation among the Inner Sect Saints, Lin Yi felt not the slightest surprise.

The world was such that it was utterly practical. Had he lost to Si Yeming today, the rumors against him would have grown more intense, but his victory, and a dominant one at that, ensured that all those unfavorable rumors dissolved into thin air.

After defeating Si Yeming, Lin Yi had essentially secured the first-place position in his group.

At the same time, the winners of the other groups had also been decided.

All the Top Ten Saints within the Inner Sect had made it to the second round without much trouble, except for Si Yeming.

Seeing that all his rivals had made it to the second round of the tournament, Si Yeming’s face turned extremely ugly.

After all this trouble, he was the only one who ended up injured.

The quality of the opponents in the second round was incomparable to those in the first.

The likes of Jiang Yunhe and Si Yeming, with their level of strength, would only be at the bottom in the second round.

The most outstanding in strength in the second round were none other than the three Heavenly Prides from the three great Holy Lands: Wan Huayu, Shangguan Tiance, and Dugu Sheng, along with three old saints with profound cultivation, Feng Xiao, Xue Wanliu, and Gu Shentong.

Now that Gu Shentong was dead, only Feng Xiao and Xue Wanliu remained among the seasoned saints.

Entering the second round of the tournament, Lin Yi’s first opponent was none other than "Killing Sword" Dugu Sheng.

Seeing that his opponent was Lin Yi, a sky-high murderous intent erupted from Dugu Sheng, his eyes filled with excitement.

In the entire Inner Sect, only two people could give him the thrill of meeting his match; one was Wan Huayu, and the other was Lin Yi.

"Xu Qing, although you are the top Heavenly Pride of the Holy Land, your combat power has yet to reach the level of invincibility among the young generation."

"I might not be without a chance of victory!"

Dugu Sheng’s black hair whipped wildly in the wind. Even with the precedent set by Si Yeming’s defeat, he still harbored thoughts of victory, ready to seize the slightest chance for success with the sword in his hand!

Lin Yi nodded, "You are a powerful genius Sword Cultivator; I will take our match seriously."

Dugu Sheng furrowed his brow, feeling that Lin Yi didn’t regard him with enough importance. With his strength, was he qualified only to be taken seriously by Lin Yi?

He was determined to show Lin Yi the grave mistake of underestimating him.

"Boom!"

A wild burst of murderous intent exploded from within Dugu Sheng, forming a vague silhouette behind him composed entirely of killing intent. Under its influence, Dugu Sheng seemed to transform into a frenzied god of slaughter, his eyes filled only with the desire to kill.

On the high platform, Half-Saint Xuan Yu watched the two on the Battle Platform. "Dugu Sheng’s murderous Sword Dao has grown from a continual spree of killing, often intimidating opponents before a fight even begins. The question is, can it deter Xu Qing?"

However, the Red Flame Venerable shook his head and said, "Xu Qing is the one who received the Sword Intent of the Wuji Sword Saint at the Sacrificial Altar. Dugu Sheng’s murderous Sword Dao might intimidate others, but I doubt it will have the same effect on Xu Qing."

Dugu Sheng’s Master, the Black Sword Half Saint, also nodded gravely, "But, if Dugu Sheng manages to break through Xu Qing’s Infinite Sword Intent, then his murderous Sword Dao will undoubtedly break its shackles and ascend to a higher level."

Both Half-Saint Xuan Yu and Ming Guang Half-Saint nodded. A clash between talents like these granted significant benefits to the victor. Especially if Dugu Sheng could win against the odds, then the improvement he received would be immeasurable.

Nonetheless, the Black Sword Half Saint had some confidence in his prized disciple. Dugu Sheng was inherently capable of creating miracles; he might just stand a chance to strike down Lin Yi, a rising star not yet fully ascendant!
