Chapter 175: Return, Enter Three Souls
When he spoke his name, his voice was soft and light . However, it resounded in the sword altar .
The disciples on the sword altar were under the impression that their master and the green-robed swordsman were exchanging greetings . However, when they heard the green-robed swordman’s name, it was as though they had been struck by a bolt of lightning as they stood rooted to their spots .
Yu Shangrong was a name that was capable of taking away one’s courage .
Yu Shangrong, the Evil Sky Pavilion’s second disciple . A skilled swordsman who loved to challenge various elites . He was also a renowned villain who would kill another person over the slightest disagreement . He was given the moniker Sword Devil .
The disciples did not expect this polite and humble swordsman to be the infamous second disciple of the Evil Sky Pavilion, Yu Shangrong .
The young juniors used to hear stories about the villains . They were under the impression that all the villains looked menacing and evil . They thought they would be able to recognize the villains if they ever met one . This green-robed swordsman… Who would have known he was the Sword Devil?
One of the disciples finally reacted and said in a hushed tone, “Send word to the main altar . Tell the elder to come and kill the Sword Devil!”
However, he had barely finished speaking when Luo Shishan waved his arm and sent a palm seal over .
Smack!
It hit the disciple mercilessly on the cheek . He did a flip in the air before he fell limply to the ground . His face was red and swollen .
Silence descended on the sword altar .
Luo Shisan said indifferently, “I said I wanted a fair fight . ”
Yu Shangrong merely maintained the faint smile on his face . Nary a ripple could be seen in his eyes . He had never taken notice of small fries .
“Whenever you’re ready . ” Luo Shishan gestured with his right hand with his palm facing upward .
There was a flash from the incense cauldron in the center of the sword altar . A sword gleamed and flew into Luo Shishan’s hand . It was a peak earth-grade weapon .
Yu Shangrong remained indifferent . The sword was not worthy of his attention after all .
Luo Shishan could sense Yu Shagnrong’s disregard, and he was, naturally, offended . He waved his arms .
The sword suddenly split into ten! The ten swords were wrapped in dense energies as they resonated in the air .
The disciples on the sword altar seemed excited when they saw this . All of them felt privileged to be able to witness a fight between their master and the Sword Devil .
This was different from Thirteen Swords . The energy blades were merely formed by condensed Primal Qi . These ten swords, however, had swords serving as conduits . They were much more powerful than the Thirteen Swords . The importance of a weapon was once again made clear .
Everyone was staring at the ten swords .
Sword Saint Luo Shisan scoffed . The ten swords followed his command as they shot toward Yu Shangrong’s face in random movements .
The surge of energy formed a strong wind, lifting Yu Shangrong’s hair .
At this moment, Yu Shangrong still wore a gentle smile on his face . He looked at Luo Shishan with his arms crossed .
The ten swords buzzed and were instantly upon him .
Bzzt!
A powerful surge of Primal Qi formed a wall that blocked the ten swords .
Yu Shangrong was still hovering in his original spot with his arms crossed .
The long red sword on his back was waiting for his instructions silently . However, Yu Shangrong did not seem to have the intention to attack .
Luo Shisan said in a deep voice, “You’re too careless!”
The ten swords split again . There were now 20 swords!
Luo Shisan could control 13 energy blades at best, but with a weapon, he could increase the number of blades he could control .
The 20 swords stabbed against the wall with an earth-shattering force .

Bam! Bam! Bam!
Yu Shangrong was still unmoved . He stood there calmly, as steady as a mountain .
The energy that wrapped around the ten swords merged and formed a turbulent flow above the sword altar .
Unfortunately, regardless of how Luo Shishan attacked, Yu Shangrong dealt with Luo Shishan’s attacks calmly and easily .
The energy blades increased in number around Luo Shisan . They were now densely packed together and looked like a wave of swords .
In a battle of swords, the factor that determined the outcome of the battle usually depended on one’s ability to control energy blades . In other words, it was the ability to condense Primal Qi into energy .
For opponents with similar strength, the amount of their Primal Qi was the manifestation of the profoundness of their cultivation base in a battle of attrition .
Naturally, the main objective was extremely simple . Regardless of how flashy an attack might seem; the goal was to defeat and kill the opponent .
Finally, Yu Shangrong’s wall of energy was being pushed back by Luo Shishan’s vigorous and relentless attacks .
Even so, Yu Shangrong was still standing with his arms crossed and did not retaliate .
To an expert who bore the title of Sword Saint, this was a humiliation .
Luo Shisan rose higher and joined his palms together . He recalled his ten swords, and they merged into one . With his palms joined and raised, the sword hovered above him .
At the same time, the Primal Qi in the surroundings were quickly pulled in and wrapped around the sword .
“It’s master’s ultimate skill!” The eyes of the disciples on the sword altar widened .
This was the sword skill the Sword Saint was famous for; the Sword Heart Gehenna .
As the name suggested, it was a skill that formed a huge enclosure where energy converged with the weapon at the center . The gathered energy would ricochet about erratically and all the enemies within the space would be attacked by the energy blades . It was a powerful multiple-target skill . However, its true destructive power would only be shown when the energy blades converged like reversed spikes into a massive energy blade . This skill seemed like it could split the heavens and the earth .

“Hundred Tribulations Insight!”
Bzzt .
An avatar materialized . The resonance of Primal Qi resounded across the sword altar .
Luo Shishan’s disciples were greatly moved by this scene . They were beside themselves with excitement .
The Seven-leaf Golden lotus spun rapidly . How would Yu Shangrong deal with this now that Luo Shishan had the support of his intimidating avatar?
Everyone’s attention shifted toward Yu Shangrong .
Yu Shangrong raised his head slightly . He looked at the massive energy blade formed by the Sword Heart Gehenna .
Luo Shisan spoke in a deep voice, “I hope you’ll be a worthy opponent . ” He brought his hands down in a slashing movement .
The Sword Heart Gehenna slashed toward Yu Shangrong as well . It moved so quickly that it seemed to be upon its target in just a blink of an eye!
Yu Shangrong’s seemed to vanish suddenly, leaving afterimages behind .
It seemed like Luo Shishan’s ultimate skill, the Sword Heart Gehenna, had missed!
“Hm?” Luo Shisan frowned slightly . “A diversionary tactic?” He did not expect Yu Shangrong had cultivated his diversionary tactic to this extent while cultivating his sword skills as well .
When the gale stirred up by Sword Heart Gehenna died down, visibility was restored .
Yu Shangrong was still hovering in his original spot with his arms crossed and a smile on his face . He stared at Luo Shisan .
“What happened?” The disciples were shaken .
“Impossible!”

“How did he do that?”
Luo Shisan was curious as well . However, he was much calmer than his disciples . He looked at Yu Shangrong and asked, “Are you planning on staying like that forever?”
Yu Shangrong had a gentle and faint smile on his face as he stood facing the wind . “If I make a move, you won’t stand a chance . ”
“How arrogant!”
“You misunderstand me . ”
“Hm?”
“If you understand me, you’d know I was being humble…”
“…” Enough was enough . Luo Shisan moved swiftly, he left afterimages everywhere! With the enhancement from his Hundred Tribulations Insight avatar, his movements were as quick as lightning . This move greatly resembled the Dao Invisibility Technique .
At the same time, energy blades were taking form around the afterimages before they charged toward Yu Shangrong .
Yu Shangrong nodded with a faint smile on his face . He seemed pleased by this .
The instant the energy wall before Yu Shangrong shattered, he raised his right arm and brandished his sword swiftly!
Left, middle, right .
Three figures flickered in the air .
It was as if there were overlapping images .
Return . Enter Three Souls .
His scarlet Longevity Sword suddenly burst forth with a flash of blinding light that enveloped his surroundings .
The space rippled like a wave .
Luo Shisan merely heard a buzzing noise in his ears . His eyes could not catch up with the movements at all .
