Chapter 342: Sword Slashing Stars
Sword Slashing Stars!
Two simple words captured the marvel and might of this sword technique.
In our world exist sun, moon, and stars.
Ancient legends tell how these celestial bodies formed from primordial spiritual energy during creation. The first wisp became the golden sun illuminating all Three Realms, the second transformed into the silvery moon to brighten nights, while the third scattered as stars to guide mortals.
It’s said each time a Sage of supreme cultivation emerges—one capable of traversing the Three Realms and living as long as the heavens—a new star forms in the sky. After countless eons, the heavens now blaze with innumerable stars, each representing a legendary Sage possessing earth-shattering power and eternal life.
Yet Su Hao dared name his technique Sword Slashing Stars—directly challenging these celestial embodiments of Sages. Such audacity! What terrifying power could justify this blasphemous name?
On the Judgment Platform, both combatants stood motionless, conserving their strength for the single strike that would decide life or death.
"Sword Slashing Stars? Ridiculous! Stars symbolize Sages—how dare he!"
"Even techniques named Sunder Sun or Split Moon pale before this arrogance. Stars are sacred!"
"Let’s witness this supposedly stellar-slashing power."
"Just cheap theatrics. Had he spoken this in the Great Qin Empire, he’d be dead already."
"But Su Hao leads Shadowless Peak. With his Spirit Demon Race wife… maybe he’s different?"
"You implying he has Demon Race Bloodline?"
"Just speculating."
Murmurs rippled through the crowd below, many uneasy about the technique’s implications.
Du Chuntian nodded dramatically. "Truly grand! Merely hearing ‘Sword Slashing Stars’ stirs my blood."
Duan Yunsha marveled, "Who knew Heavenly Sword Sect housed someone bolder than our king?"
Duan Hongcheng sneered, "A mere sect leader daring such ambition? Impressive."
"Your Highnesses underestimate Peak Master Su," Du Chuntian chuckled. "His Demon Race family, elite Ten Killing Formation disciples who challenge Golden Core experts… Naming his technique modestly shows restraint!"
The princes laughed politely.
A cold voice cut through their mirth. "Arrogant? Seems Du family boasts greater pretenders."
Ye Yun met their glare calmly as Duan Hongcheng roared, "Who in Du family surpasses this?"
"Rumor says," Ye Yun drawled, "a Du youth touched sword essence in his teens. What’s his technique called?"
Du Chuntian’s face tightened. "You’ve met Jianyin. Don’t play coy."
"Ah, Du Jianyin!" Ye Yun snapped his fingers. "His technique’s first move: Sword Splitting Mountains. Second: Sword Slashing Stars. But even these names failed him…"
"Then what’s it called?" someone shouted.
Ye Yun paused dramatically. "Three words: Heavenly Blade Strike."
Gasps erupted. Heavenly Blade Strike—to sever the celestial palaces housing Heavenly Realm’s rulers! Every cultivator venerates these immortal ancestors who saved humanity during the Battle of Immortals and Demons. This name dwarfed Su Hao’s in insolence.
Du Chuntian paled. "Lies! Jianyin’s absent to refute this!"
Undeterred, Ye Yun continued, "Third move? Who knows? Maybe Sword Splitting Heaven itself?"
The crowd buzzed frantically. Cutting mountains proved possible for experts—but stars? What came next?
"Silence!" Du Chuntian bellowed. He truly knew little of Jianyin’s technique from that fateful encounter five years ago—now this revelation threatened their clan.
"So," Ye Yun shouted over the din, "compared to Heavenly Blade Strike, my master’s Sword Slashing Stars seems almost humble!"
On the platform, both fighters had entered battle trance, oblivious to the commotion. Their clash would decide everything—Reversal Talisman against Sword Slashing Stars.
The moment of life or death had come.
