Chapter 430: Chapter 427 Demon Suppressing Saint Hand

Crack!

The black crescent blade light swept out, overwhelming everything, and Dugu Hao’s Demon Suppressing Saint Hand could not block this black crescent blade light, and it quickly retreated before it.

On the Battle Platform, a sword mark extended to the edge appeared, terrifyingly resembling a rift in the sky.

When Demon Sword Jue Wuchen used the Demon Moon Path, Dugu Hao had already started forming the Hand Seal. After making up his mind, the speed of forming the seal soared to its limit, and one could no longer see his hands, just a blurry ball of earthy yellow light. As he silently chanted, the ground beneath him suddenly cracked open, and rugged, ancient-looking boulders erupted from the platform, which then arranged themselves as a barrier in front of Dugu Hao.

The next moment!

The black crescent smashed onto those bizarre stones, causing a roaring explosion.

"Dugu Hao’s stone defense is going to be broken!"

The crowd saw huge gaps blasted into the boulders as the black crescent was about to pierce through.

"No, the power of the blade light is also rapidly depleting!"

A sharper group noticed that as the bizarre stones shattered, the power of the black crescent was being gradually reduced, and its presence weakening.

Boom!

As the last of the bizarre stones in front of Dugu Hao was shattered, the blade light also collapsed, dissipating into smoke before him.

"He blocked it!"

"He truly is a Half-Saint Inheritor, to dissolve such a horrific strike."

"Indeed, I have never seen Demon Sword Jue Wuchen after his Demon Transformation. I didn’t expect him to be so powerful. If Dugu Hao wins this match, he might have already secured half the victory."

The crowd was amazed by the power of Jue Wuchen after his Demon Transformation. If Dugu Hao could still win, then undoubtedly, he would be considered stronger than Ye Xuan, at least in the eyes of most.

In Jue Wuchen’s eyes, where human nature seemed extinct, he had already merged with his combat blade, though not fully achieving unity, but was not far from it.

"Take another move from me, Seven-layered Blade Wave!"

As he called out, Jue Wuchen’s figure swooped up, swinging a blade while suspended in air. At that moment, the momentum he had accumulated converged into this strike, causing the Battle Platform to quake, unleashing seven folds of black blade waves, like raging tides, with roars demonic.

"Really think I can’t handle you? Demon Suppressing Saint Hand!"

In front of the blade waves, Dugu Hao seemed like a small boat that could capsize at any moment, but the next instant, the dharma form behind him suddenly expanded, emanating a holy oscillation while expanding, containing an evil-breaking aura.

Whoosh!

The dharma form’s condensed figure suddenly stretched out a giant hand, pressing towards Jue Wuchen. The Seven-layered Blade Wave crashed onto the giant hand, both entities making contact and immediately creating a situation as irreconcilable as fire and water, swiftly intertwining, mutually weakening each other wildly.

Yet, in this entanglement, the Big Handprint that Dugu Hao condensed gradually gained the upper hand, completely suppressed and annihilated the Seven-layered Blade Wave.

Seeing this, Jue Wuchen’s expression changed, and he immediately launched another attack, his blade light slashing toward Dugu Hao like a storm, dense and furious, aiming to defeat Dugu Hao completely with a thunderous offensive.

Yet, under the influence of that evil-breaking aura, Dugu Hao appeared quite composed. No matter how fiercely Jue Wuchen attacked, he ultimately couldn’t affect Dugu Hao at all.

"This evil-breaking aura significantly restrains Jue Wuchen," said Ye Xuan, a flash of light gleaming in his eyes. Although Dugu Hao was already slightly superior, Jue Wuchen had gained considerable strength after his Demon Transformation. However, this evil-breaking aura that Dugu Hao endowed still firmly gave him the upper hand.

Despite Jue Wuchen’s frenzied attacks, the way things were going, it seemed unlikely to be effective.

"So, even senior Jue Wuchen is going to lose?"

Nangong Yao was somewhat astonished too. She had thought Ye Xuan was already the biggest dark horse of this conference, but the edge shown by Jue Wuchen surpassed even Ye Xuan. If Dugu Hao genuinely defeated Jue Wuchen, most of the popularity Ye Xuan had built up after defeating Liu Qinghe might ebb away instantly, making Dugu Hao the top favorite for the crown.

"Almost certainly."

Before Ye Xuan could speak, Ling Qianxue opened her mouth first. She exchanged a glance with Ye Xuan, as they both had roughly grasped the general trend of the contest. The fight wasn’t over that quickly, but the outcome was likely already decided.

On the Battle Platform, Jue Wuchen realized the dire situation. He had wasted so much True Yuan but still couldn’t subdue Dugu Hao. If he couldn’t defeat or severely injure Dugu Hao, then his loss was sealed.

With this thought, the black light in his eyes became more rampant. His hair tinged with hints of silver, his temples turned completely white as he entered a berserk state.

"Demon Sword Hundred Continuous Cuts!"

In his berserk state, Jue Wuchen swung his battle sword rapidly, delivering dozens of blows in a very brief period, reaching a hundred slashes, inundating the entire platform with blade light.

This was Jue Wuchen’s final struggle.

"Stone Guardian!"

Dugu Hao still used his previous move. On the Battle Platform, following continuous explosive sounds, chunks of bizarre rocks burst forth, forming layers of protection that constantly shifted and swapped, blocking all of the dense sword slashes.

"Demon Suppressing Saint Hand."

Having fortified his defense, the dharma form behind Dugu Hao reached out a massive hand again. This time, the hand directly tore through Jue Wuchen’s momentum and fiercely struck him.

Pfft!

Jue Wuchen, caught off guard by the powerful blow, spurted out fresh blood, was struck off the Battle Platform by the evil-breaking Big Handprint.

Demon Sword Jue Wuchen, defeated!

Silence had already fallen over the arena.

The crowd was at a loss for words to describe their shock.

First, Liu Qinghe of the Sword Sect, and now Demon Sword Jue Wuchen, the strongest among the middle-aged generation had been defeated, all having lost to the younger generation. The shock was simply indescribable.

"As expected."

There was no surprise on Ye Xuan’s face. He looked at Dugu Hao with a trace of solemnity surfacing on his face. Dugu Hao’s strength was indeed astounding; without any harm, he had defeated Jue Wuchen post his Demon Transformation.

This was a Half-Saint Inheritor, and also his next opponent.

"Interesting, this conference is too interesting."

On the high platform, the golden-robed elder stroked his beard, now he too was somewhat torn in decision-making. He hadn’t expected this Half-Saint Inheritor’s strength and talent to be so astonishing, even surpassing the earlier performance by Ye Xuan.
