Sword Master Chen's eyes gleamed as he looked at Li Mu, a flicker of Battle Intent in them. He changed the subject and proposed, "Elder Li, you have already condensed a Chaos Law Domain, and its power must be extraordinary. I, Chen, have always pursued the Dao of Sword endlessly. How about we spar a bit so I can witness the power of Chaos Power?"
"The Chaotic Great Dao, for tens of thousands of years until now, no one has ever been able to step onto this Dao. Elder Li's achievement is truly rare and astonishing, leaving one in awe. The profundity and vastness of the Chaotic Great Dao are not something ordinary people like us can easily glimpse. Junior Brother Chen's suggestion is excellent. I am willing to oversee the battle for you two." Sword Master Feng's eyes lit up as he looked at Li Mu and agreed.
Upon hearing the suggestions of Sword Master Chen and Sword Master Feng, Qin Wentong and the others' eyes all lit up. They were equally eager to witness this Doujian and even more hoped to personally experience the Sect Master's true strength at this moment.
That was the Chaotic Great Dao!
In the entire Spirit Realm, for tens of thousands of years, no one had ever been able to step onto this Dao. Yet, today, they witnessed Li Mu's achievement. If he could continue to Breakthrough and reach that final Realm in the future, how shocking would that achievement be!
Thinking of this, an indescribable surge of excitement and pride welled up in the hearts of Qin Wentong and the others.
"Sect Master, two Sword Masters, if you wish to have a Doujian, I will go clear the Doujian Stage and make arrangements now." Qin Wentong looked at Li Mu and eagerly suggested.
"In that case, I trouble Elder Qin."
Facing the expectant gazes of everyone, Li Mu could only bite the bullet and agree. He also wanted to test his true combat power after condensing the Chaos Law Domain. Having Sword Master Chen, a strong practitioner with profound attainments in the Dao of Sword, as an opponent was undoubtedly the best touchstone.
Seeing Li Mu agree, Qin Wentong, Zhong Zilin, and Ge Xinyu flew away, heading to the Doujian Stage in the back mountain to arrange the venue.
"Sword Master, since you have this intention, Li will respectfully comply. However, please show mercy, Sword Master. My Chaos Law Domain is newly formed and still has many imperfections." After watching the three leave, Li Mu turned to Sword Master Chen and smiled, "Haha, Elder Li is too modest."
Sword Master Chen laughed a few times, then his figure moved, flying out of the main hall and following Qin Wentong to the Doujian Stage.
Sword Master Feng and Li Mu exchanged a glance, then his figure moved, transforming into a streak of light and vanishing.
Li Mu stepped through the Void Realm, following closely behind.
Landing on the Doujian Stage, Li Mu clearly felt a rich Sword Intent permeating the air. Sword Master Chen, who had arrived at the Doujian Stage earlier, held the Gengjin Dao Sword and had set up a Sword Domain with his own Sword Intent to create the best conditions for the upcoming spar.
At this moment, the Doujian Stage's protective Formation had been activated. Sword Master Feng, Qin Wentong, and the others each stood at a corner, providing a stable and secure barrier for the Doujian Stage, while eagerly anticipating this unprecedented Sword Dao feast.
As for the area around the Doujian Stage, within a hundred miles, all Seven Profound Sect Disciples had been cleared out, and a Formation that isolated Divine Sense prying had been set up, ensuring the purity of this spar, undisturbed by the outside world.
However, Sword Master Chen was a Body Integration Sword Cultivator. Once the fight started, the existing defensive measures of the Doujian Stage might be insufficient.
"Sword Master, please wait a moment!"
Li Mu took out several Array Instruments from the nine storage spiritual pearl and successively released them using Spells.
First, a Five Elements protective Array Instrument—a five-colored jade plate was placed at the center of the Doujian Stage. As Li Mu's spiritual power was injected, the jade plate emitted a brilliant light. Dense Five Elements Origin Qi intertwined and rotated in the air, forming dazzling halos that tightly enveloped the Doujian Stage. This Five Elements Array Instrument not only enhanced the spiritual power concentration within the Doujian Stage but also made the entire space more stable, effectively converting the aftermath of their Doujian into protective power, reducing their impact on the Doujian Stage.
Next, a small brass gong. With a gentle tap, a melodious and mysterious sound wave instantly rippled out, quickly forming an invisible barrier around the Doujian Stage. Li Mu used this Array Instrument to set up a Formation called "Echo Barrier," which could absorb and transform sound wave impacts during battle. Whether it was the clang of swords or the loud noises generated by magical power collisions, they could be effectively weakened, preventing sound from leaking out and affecting the outside world.
Finally, Li Mu took out an ancient array diagram called "Myriad Phenomena Sealing Diagram." As the array diagram slowly unfolded, mountains, rivers, sun, moon, stars, and various strange creatures were depicted on it, lifelike. As spiritual power was injected, the scenes on the scroll seemed to come alive, transforming into streaks of light that merged into the Void Realm around the Doujian Stage. This Myriad Phenomena Sealing Diagram could form a powerful barrier, isolating the inside and outside of the Doujian Stage, not only preventing the aftermath of the battle from leaking out but also isolating all prying and interference from the outside world, ensuring the purity and privacy of this spar.
After completing all this, Li Mu turned to Sword Master Chen, then summoned a Five Elements Dao Sword from the nine storage spiritual pearl and held it in his hand, smiling, "Sword Master, the Doujian Stage's defenses have been reinforced. Now we can spar with peace of mind!"
Looking at the Array Instruments arranged by Li Mu, Sword Master Chen's eyes were filled with admiration and respect: "Elder Li's methods are truly extraordinary, and these Array Instruments and Formations are incredibly powerful. Since that's the case, let's begin!"
With that, Sword Master Chen's figure unfolded, and the Gengjin Dao Sword transformed into a dazzling golden Sword Qi, directly pressing towards Li Mu.
Seeing this, a hint of solemnity flashed in Li Mu's eyes. His figure moved lightly, as graceful as a flowing cloud. Chaos Power was injected into the Five Elements Dao Sword in his hand, meeting the attack.
With a loud "bang," Sword Master Chen revealed his figure. The Gengjin Dao Sword and Li Mu's Five Elements Dao Sword collided fiercely, two sword lights intertwining in the air, as if Chaos and light from the beginning of the Universe were clashing intensely. At the point where the sword tips met, dazzling light erupted, and space itself seemed to be twisted by this force, forming ripples of fluctuations.
The two sides separated after a single touch. The next moment, they collided fiercely again, the force gradually deepening.
Although Li Mu had condensed a Chaos Law Domain, he only had Void Refining cultivation. Sword Master Chen was a Body Integration Peak Cultivator. If he used his full power from the start, it might seem like bullying the weak. Therefore, he held back slightly after his initial move, gradually increasing his power to test Li Mu's limits.
However, the Chaos Law Domain coiled around Li Mu's body. Each collision of sword light plunged into a bottomless Chaos whirlpool. Not only was it not easily defeated, but it seemed to continuously absorb the essence of these powers, making Li Mu's offensive even more profound, and the Chaos Power contained in his sword light even denser.
Sword Master Chen fought with increasing ferocity, his aura continuously rising. The sharp Sword Qi he released was as violent as a storm, but Li Mu's Chaos Law Domain was like a vast ocean, profound and expansive, continuously devouring and transforming this fierce Sword Intent.
"What a Chaos Law Domain! It can so cleverly dissolve my Gengjin Sword Domain!" Sword Master Chen exclaimed in admiration, his Battle Intent growing even stronger. Encountering such an opponent was a blessing for a Sword Cultivator and an excellent Opportunity to temper his own Dao of Sword.
Li Mu smiled slightly: "Sword Master, you flatter me. Li has only just scratched the surface. However, since Sword Master is interested, Li will naturally go all out to explore the mysteries of the Dao of Sword and Chaos with Sword Master."
With that, the Chaos Power within Li Mu's body surged even more violently. The Five Elements Dao Sword in his hand lightly tapped the ground, and instantly, the entire Doujian Stage seemed to be pulled by an invisible force. The surrounding space began to twist, forming patches of Sword Qi composed of Chaos Qi. These Sword Qi were completely different from before; they were not like the sharp and direct traditional Sword Qi, but rather contained an indescribable weight and profundity, like the Chaos at the beginning of the Universe, both chaotic and harmonious, both destructive and creative.
"Chaos Sword Rain. This is a sword move I comprehended by combining the Chaos Law Domain and the Dao of Sword. Please evaluate it, Sword Master." Li Mu said softly.
The next moment, Li Mu's figure erupted, like a deity traversing through Chaos mist. Chaos Sword Qi danced with his movements. Streaks of colorful Sword Qi, like a sudden downpour, shot out from the ground, submerging Sword Master Chen.
Seeing this, Sword Master Chen's expression became solemn. He felt the threat contained within the endless Chaos Sword Qi, a threat that surpassed any sword move he had encountered before.
"What a Chaos Sword Rain!"
Facing this Sword Domain Divine Ability, Sword Master Chen's Battle Intent was instead ignited. His Gengjin Sword Domain suddenly expanded, and golden sword light surged out like a fierce tiger.
"Sword Domain Peerless, Gengjin Sword Tiger, kill!"
With Sword Master Chen's roar, the Gengjin Dao Sword in his hand seemed to be imbued with life, transforming into a giant golden tiger that lunged towards Li Mu.
At the same time, the Body Integration Law Domain condensed around Sword Master Chen, generating countless streaks of Sword Qi that manifested into various Dharmakayas. Golden sword tigers condensed one after another. They had diverse forms, exuding boundless might and sharpness. The golden sword tiger pack roared with the golden giant tiger, carrying the power to tear through space, charging head-on into Li Mu's Chaos Sword Rain.
"Boom!" With a thunderous crash,
The Chaos Sword Rain and the golden sword tiger pack violently collided in the air. In an instant, the entire Doujian Stage seemed to be enveloped by a violent energy storm.
Each collision between the sword rain and the sword tigers erupted with deafening roars. Space at this moment seemed to be torn into countless fragments, yet was quickly repaired by the power of the Chaos Law Domain and the Gengjin Law Domain.
Li Mu's Chaos Sword Rain, its Sword Qi containing the profound mysteries of Chaos, appeared chaotic and disorderly, yet secretly contained the ultimate truth of heaven and earth. It could easily penetrate the defenses of the Gengjin Sword Tiger and cause Chaos within its body, weakening its power. Meanwhile, Sword Master Chen's Gengjin Sword Tiger, with its indestructible sharpness and the might of a tiger descending from the mountain, continuously impacted the Chaos Law Domain's defenses with purer, more profound power, attempting to find a Breakthrough Opportunity and directly attack Li Mu.
The two Law Domains collided fiercely, with each side containing elements of the other, engaging in a fierce struggle.
At the same time, the battle between Li Mu and Sword Master Chen also entered a white-hot close-quarters combat state. Their figures darted across the Doujian Stage like lightning. Amidst the flashing sword lights, space seemed to be infinitely compressed and then instantly expanded. Each collision of sword light was accompanied by a violent surge of Heaven and Earth Origin Qi, showcasing an extraordinary Sword Dao Concept.
As time passed, the battle between the two sides grew even more intense. The entire Doujian Stage seemed to have become an arena for the Gengjin Dao of Sword and the Chaos Law Domain. Li Mu's Chaos Law Domain and Sword Master Chen's Gengjin Sword Domain collided tens of thousands of times, producing all sorts of incredible phenomena.
Waves of tremendous battle aftermath shook the entire Doujian Stage incessantly, as if it could not withstand the earth-shattering power of the two strong practitioners.
However, under the protection of the multiple Formations and Array Instruments previously set up by Li Mu, the Doujian Stage remained as stable as ever. The forces of twisted space and immense energy fluctuations around it were effectively confined to this small area.
Outside the Doujian Stage, Sword Master Feng, Qin Wentong, and the others watching the battle fixed their gaze on the fierce clash on the stage, their hearts surging with indescribable excitement and shock.
As a Body Integration Peak Cultivator himself, Sword Master Feng could already tell that Sword Master Chen was almost using his full power. His Body Integration Peak Sword Intent had almost reached the Transcendent Realm. However, in front of Li Mu's Chaos Law Domain, his Law Domain seemed to be suppressed.
The battle between the two was currently in a stalemate.
In the fierce confrontation, Li Mu's Chaos Law Domain displayed its even more profound and unique power. The all-encompassing nature of the Chaos Law Domain allowed it to absorb a portion of Sword Master Chen's Gengjin power, transforming it into Chaos Power to nourish himself, and at the same time, weakening the opponent's power, achieving two goals with one stone.
At the same time, the Chaos Law Domain also seemed to possess the terrifying ability to "devour all things." Any Sword Qi, Spell, or even energy fluctuation that entered this domain would be invisibly devoured. In addition, Li Mu's Chaos Law Domain contained the supreme Law of "Chaos Will." This Will surpassed the will of any creature or object, allowing him to integrate this Will with the Sword Dao Will, making every sword strike contain the majestic power from the beginning of the Universe, possessing numerous enhancements.
Witnessing the astonishing power displayed by Li Mu's Chaos Law Domain, Sword Master Feng had to admit that the power of the Chaotic Great Dao indeed possessed unimaginable potential and power.
Qin Wentong stood in a corner of the Doujian Stage, his gaze fixed on every clash between the two figures on the stage. His heart surged like turbulent waves, filled with overwhelming shock.
Sword Master Chen was an old Body Integration Peak Cultivator of the Xuantian Sword Sect, just one Opportunity away from stepping into the Dao Lord Realm. However, the Sect Master was a newly advanced Void Refining Cultivator, a whole major Realm below Sword Master Chen in cultivation. Yet, he was now fighting him to a draw by virtue of his Chaos Law Domain, which was enough to prove the formidable nature of the Chaotic Great Dao.
The power Li Mu wielded far exceeded Qin Wentong's imagination. A sincere sense of pride and awe welled up in his heart, proud that the Sect Master possessed such astonishing talent.
Zhong Zilin's eyes gleamed as he intently watched the fierce battle on the Doujian Stage, filled with excitement. At this moment, he had a slight Epiphany regarding the profound understanding and application of Sword Intent. The Sect Master's Fusion of the Chaos Law Domain with the Dao of Sword to create unprecedented sword moves was an excellent reference.
At this moment, Ge Xinyu's mood was also exceptionally complex. Looking at the familiar figure on the Doujian Stage, her heart held both pride and worry. She was proud that the Sect Master she admired had displayed such astonishing strength, earning supreme glory for the Sect. Her worry was that the battle was so intense, fearing that Li Mu might suffer an accident and get injured.
After all, there was a significant disparity in cultivation Realm between the Sect Master and his opponent.
However, as she watched Li Mu grow increasingly composed in the fierce battle, successfully responding to Sword Master Chen's sharp offensives again and again, trading blows without falling behind in the slightest, Ge Xinyu's worries gradually dissipated. (End of Chapter)
