Wan Jian Villa.
Within the Sword Mound space.
The Sword Mound space was filled with surging sword intent and the howling of flames.
The Crimson Flame Dragon Soul Spear, emitting the Wind Flame Spirit Fire, was continuously swung through the air.
Jiang Li's eyes grew brighter and brighter. After several hours of high-intensity combat, Jiang Li's control over the power within his body became increasingly precise.
The might of the Primordial Sacred Body was brought into full play.
Even without using any martial arts or divine abilities, Jiang Li was already capable of fighting the sword spirit to a standstill, relying solely on his peerless Primordial Sacred Body.
At this moment, the dark black light on the sword spirit was extremely weak, seeming as if it would extinguish at any moment.
Only the boundless sword intent remained, clashing with Jiang Li.
Jiang Li held his spear, constantly resisting, the sound of collision echoing ceaselessly.
After a long while, the light of the mysterious great sword finally vanished completely, turning pitch black.
Only residual sword intent howled all around.
The influence of this sword intent on Jiang Li had reached its minimum, with virtually no impact.
"Since you are useless, then be destroyed!" Jiang Li muttered, a cold glint flashing in his eyes, and he unleashed a powerful offensive from his [God Slaying Spear Technique].
Immediately afterward, a golden dragon soul, carrying the Wind Flame Spirit Fire, erupted from Jiang Li's Crimson Flame Dragon Soul Spear, piercing directly through the mysterious great sword.
The mysterious great sword was instantly impaled by the dragon soul and vanished into the air.
Following that, the residual light of the mysterious great sword flowed towards Jiang Li's body.
The instant the mysterious great sword dissipated.
The entire Sword Mound let out a piercing sword cry.
The countless sword intents of Wan Jian Villa were seemingly drawn, rushing towards the Sword Mound in unison.
Numerous sword artifacts within the villa were also controlled by an inexplicable force and flew out together, with swords of all kinds hovering above the Sword Mound.
The many cultivators of Wan Jian Villa were extremely astonished.
They looked at the scene before them in utter panic, wondering what had happened.
"This is the Myriad Swords Returning to Origin… I've seen this before…"
"Someone has successfully challenged the Sword Mound, my heavens… that guy actually succeeded…"
"Damn, that guy's luck is too good, to actually succeed in the challenge…"
"Heh, did you really think someone could succeed through luck… the strength of that sword spirit is incredibly powerful, not something an ordinary person can deal with…"
"Exactly, exactly, the strength of that sword spirit is at least at the Spirit River realm, do you really think you can get a freebie?"
"I wonder what kind of reward that guy will get. I want to challenge it too. If I get a top-grade sword dao martial art, I'll be rich…"
…
…
The many cultivators of Wan Jian Villa looked with envy at the Myriad Swords Returning to Origin above the Sword Mound.
To be able to kill the sword spirit was something countless sword cultivators wished for but could not achieve.
Now, someone had actually succeeded in challenging the Sword Mound and killed the sword spirit.
…
Within the Sword Mound space.
Countless sword intents converged from the outside towards the Sword Mound space.
Sharp sword cries continued to resound, and the plain was filled with hurried sword cries everywhere.
The residual light of the mysterious great sword was covered by the condensing sword intents, forming a sword-shaped spiritual light.
The sword-shaped spiritual light was extremely powerful, and under its oppressive force, the entire space showed signs of collapse.
Jiang Li narrowed his eyes, staring intently at the sword-shaped spiritual light in the sky.
This sword-shaped spiritual light gave Jiang Li a sense of faint threat.
The sharp sword intent and boundless killing intent seemed capable of piercing through everything.
Immediately after, the sword-shaped spiritual light, like a flying needle, drilled directly into Jiang Li's body.
Jiang Li didn't even have time to react before the sword-shaped spiritual light had entered his body.
After entering Jiang Li's body, the sword-shaped spiritual light directly rushed into Jiang Li's dantian, slowly melting. The melting spiritual light emitted a very warm power.
Under the nourishment of this warm power, a sword pellet emitting surging sword intent condensed on Jiang Li's dantian.
Extremely cold sword intent coiled around the sword pellet.
The faint sharpness made Jiang Li's body tense slightly.
However, as the sword pellet was completely enveloped by Jiang Li's spiritual power, the sharpness began to gradually disappear, becoming very compatible.
This was… the Seven Kill Sword Pellet…
Nourished by Jiang Li's spiritual power, the sword pellet emitted a strange light.
Jiang Li felt a peculiar sensation: this sword pellet seemed to be connected to his consciousness and could be controlled at will.
Moreover, it seemed that due to Jiang Li's powerful physique, the sword pellet had become even stronger within his body.
Let's see the power of this Seven Kill Sword Pellet.
Jiang Li blinked, and then, with a thought.
The sword pellet flew out of Jiang Li's body.
It directly transformed into a golden sword beam, sharp and peerless, seeming capable of piercing all obstacles.
Jiang Li controlled the sword beam to shuttle back and forth.
The sword beam was like lightning, darting across the plain.
Countless sword cries echoed in the air, sounds that were no weaker than those of the mysterious great sword just now.
Having just condensed, could this sword intent already rival that mysterious great sword?
Jiang Li's eyes were full of joy. Immediately, under Jiang Li's control, the Seven Kill Sword Pellet split into seven sword lights, each carrying extremely powerful sword intent.
Ordinary early-stage Spirit River realm powerhouses would definitely not be able to withstand the invasion of this sword light.
Jiang Li then tried to split it into more sword lights, but found that the sword pellet seemed to have reached its limit and could not split further.
It seemed that the sword pellet had not yet fully grown, Jiang Li sighed softly.
However, being able to split into seven at once was already enough for Jiang Li to use.
Splitting into more would consume a terrifying amount of spiritual power and mental energy.
After testing the attack power and speed of the sword pellet again, Jiang Li put it away and continued to nurture it in his dantian.
"How do I leave here?" Jiang Li thought, looking at the devastated and messy plain around him.
As soon as Jiang Li's thought arose, a spiritual light appeared, tightly wrapping around him.
The spiritual light carried Jiang Li and he disappeared from the plain.
…
At the entrance of the Sword Mound.
The spiritual swords and sword artifacts above the Sword Mound had already returned to their original positions, as if nothing had happened, leaving only boundless sword intent surging above the Sword Mound.
"I didn't expect you to actually come out!" Wang Jiuting was drinking the Millennium Drunkenness that Jiang Li had given him earlier.
The servants of Wan Jian Villa on the other side had already left.
Clearly, they also hadn't expected Jiang Li to emerge alive.
"Just good luck!" Jiang Li said modestly.
Wang Jiuting carefully scrutinized Jiang Li, his eyes seeming to penetrate him completely.
"I misjudged you. Truly a hero emerging from youth, I never expected you to be such a powerful, peerless prodigy!" Wang Jiuting praised, his eyes full of admiration.
