Chapter 1140: 1140 Sword World! (Chapter 1)

Dugu Qiujian was unable to spot Ji Bairi’s figure and was frequently attacked by artillery fire. Not every time was he able to dodge accurately, resulting in an increasing number of scars on his body.

Ji Bairi moved around Dugu Qiujian like a ghost, exploiting Dugu Qiujian’s blindness. He deliberately made sounds to mislead Dugu Qiujian into making wrong judgments, then ambushed him from behind.

After several times, Dugu Qiujian’s wounds became more serious.

Swish.

A beam of light suddenly approached from behind. Dugu Qiujian swiftly turned and slashed with his sword, directly cutting the beam in half.

It disappeared again.

One moment he sensed Ji Bairi right behind him, but as he turned to block, Ji Bairi vanished once more.

"Dugu Qiujian, you can’t even find me, how can you fight against me?"

Dugu Qiujian furrowed his brows and suddenly swept his sword to the left, sending a Sword Qi slicing into the air.

"Zizi... The Sword Qi is powerful, but... it’s a pity it can’t even touch me." Ji Bairi’s voice echoed from another location.

Dugu Qiujian released another Sword Qi, but still hit nothing but air.

"Haha..." The mocking laughter erupted from all directions.

Seeing Dugu Qiujian attack randomly like a headless fly wherever he heard a sound, Ji Bairi’s laughter echoed everywhere, making it seem like his presence was in every corner of the air.

"Dugu Qiujian, even if I stood right here and let you kill me, you wouldn’t be able to find me. Do you know what you look like now? Like a mad dog biting everywhere, haha..." To think this opponent, who once overwhelmingly suppressed him in strength, was now regarded without deep gravity by Ji Bairi, who sounded more like a youthful skirmish rather than an elder or patriarch-level confrontation.

This indicated that only an expert like Dugu Qiujian could truly earn Ji Bairi’s respect and be considered a worthy opponent.

Dugu Qiujian did not speak; his ears twitched slightly now and then, trying to discern Ji Bairi’s position through sound, yet he never succeeded in pinpointing Ji Bairi’s location.

It seemed like he was everywhere, yet also right in front of him.

If his eyes were intact, he wouldn’t have to be toyed with by Ji Bairi like this.

Dugu Qiujian’s footsteps gradually moved, no longer attacking blindly. Though his eyes were blind, his heart was not. His eyes could not see, so he used his heart to perceive.

"A fair fight, I’ll definitely defeat you."

"Do you dare, Ji Bairi?"

Dugu Qiujian spoke slowly, simultaneously aligning his mind and spirit, even using every pore of his body to sense Ji Bairi’s position.

Ji Bairi sneered: "Do you take me for a fool? If I can easily kill you, why waste effort on a fair duel? Dugu Qiujian, this world is rewritten by the victors, no matter the process, as long as the outcome is good, any means are permissible."

His words were cold but true.

Dugu Qiujian remained silent, as his sword was brewing a move to determine Ji Bairi’s position.

It’s done.

Dugu Qiujian suddenly swung his sword, with himself as the focal point, releasing a weak Sword Qi in every direction around him.

The Sword Qi shot out in all directions, while Ji Bairi laughed coldly, feeling the Sword Qi, without even bothering to counter.

As Ji Bairi let the Sword Qi fall upon him, Dugu Qiujian quickly altered his expression, and through the varying distances the Sword Qi traveled, immediately pinpointed the location where the Sword Qi encountered slight obstruction and dissipated – where Ji Bairi must be.

Swish.

Dugu Qiujian immediately enveloped the area with a Sword Array, no longer giving him the chance to move freely and disrupt his perception.

Huh?

Ji Bairi was a bit surprised that he had hidden his aura completely, making it difficult for even martial artists of the same level to locate him.

Yet, the blind Dugu Qiujian could immediately, and accurately, find his location, which truly astonished Ji Bairi.

"Damn, there’s a Sword Array too."

When Ji Bairi attempted to shift away again, his heart shuddered, for the aura of the Sword Array’s attack came rushing in.

Now confined within the Sword Array, Dugu Qiujian intended not to let him break this formation, as it would make it much harder to once again lock onto Ji Bairi.

"Sword World!"

At this moment, the sword in Dugu Qiujian’s hand transformed into countless other swords, which then densely combined together, forming an enclosed space encasing both him and Ji Bairi.

In an instant, the Sword World cut off everything from outside, including air, light...

The world turned dark, and Ji Bairi was immediately startled. He raised his hand to launch a laser cannon, but the Sword Array activated at once, intercepting the laser cannon, making the Sword World unbreakable.

Ji Bairi’s expression grew serious because the surroundings were utterly dark, not a hint of light was visible, and Dugu Qiujian even before him became increasingly indistinct, eventually disappearing into the blackness.

In reality, he hadn’t truly vanished; it was merely too dark to see anything clearly.

"Damn you, Dugu Qiujian, to think you’d use such a move against me." Ji Bairi quickly realized that Dugu Qiujian had fashioned this Sword World without a formidable power but had created a dark world eliminating his blindness disadvantage while nullifying Ji Bairi’s visual advantage, thus shifting the scenario favorably for Dugu Qiujian. It was indeed a double-edged strategy.

"Ji Bairi, now we can settle the score from fifty years ago!" Dugu Qiujian’s voice slowly echoed.

Ji Bairi frowned, as he now felt unfamiliar and couldn’t sense Dugu Qiujian’s position.

As the saying goes, the wheel of fate turns, and now, their positions have reversed.

Dugu Qiujian initiated an attack. The darkness did not hinder his movements in the least, whereas Ji Bairi, unable to see his opponent, was struck multiple times by Dugu Qiujian.

"Damn it, I need to find a way out." Ji Bairi, unlike Dugu Qiujian who had been blind for decades and could act as if outside, was thoroughly unaccustomed here, forced to rely entirely on instinct during battle, yet instinct is not always accurate.

As a result, Ji Bairi’s injuries worsened.

Bang bang bang.

Ji Bairi bombarded in all directions, but the Sword Array repeatedly blocked him, not giving him a chance to destroy it.

Swish.

The sword light was invisible, cutting through silently, causing blood to burst from Ji Bairi.

In a short span, Ji Bairi had acquired over a dozen wounds on his body. Though none were fatal, such sword injuries were hard to heal and required significant energy to suppress.

This led to Ji Bairi’s energies depleting sharply, making his situation increasingly unfavorable.

As Ji Bairi’s position was abruptly overturned by Dugu Qiujian, Ye Qiu reached the most critical moment in breaking through the shackles of his soul.

If he succeeded, he would ascend to the False King Realm, establishing himself as a king; but if he failed, he faced the possibility of death and the dissolution of his path.

In a mysterious realm, Ye Qiu saw the shackles binding his soul and exerted every bit of his strength to erode and loosen the spiritual constraints, severing them bit by bit.
