Chapter 1089: [(795)] Battle of the Ninth Rank! (Seeking Monthly Tickets and Subscriptions) Chapter 1089: [(795)] Battle of the Ninth Rank! (Seeking Monthly Tickets and Subscriptions) “You! How could… how is this possible!!!”
Zhong Wanhao’s eyeballs bulged out fiercely, and he was so terrified that they nearly popped out of their sockets; his mouth agape, looking as if he had seen a ghost.
This Ninth Rank Plant Cultivator, notorious in Yunmeng Lake, was now left speechless, and combined with his clawing and grasping at the air, he appeared extremely ludicrous and laughable.
Indeed, his current state of mind could only be described as being akin to stormy seas.
Zhong Wanhao truly had not anticipated Pei Jinye to be this powerful.
When Pei Jinye first handed over his sword to enter the institution, Zhong thought he was merely a new Ninth Rank Sword Cultivator. He assumed that being a bit cautious was all it took for a two versus one fight, never expecting this outcome.
Clearly, this guy had hidden his true abilities before!
The vigorous might of his sword was like a thunderbolt, the fiercest Zhong had ever seen in his life.
Zhong’s heart was racing so fast, he even felt it was about to leap out of his throat.
With all his might.
The blood-red glow bursting from his palm grew instantaneously intense!
Countless vine-like tendrils surged out, forming a large shield, attempting to block Pei Jinye’s sword strike.
However–
“Slara!”
With the force of obliterating decay, Pei Jinye instantly smashed the large shield before Zhong.
The clash was instantaneous.
Zhong, like a leaky sandbag, was violently blown back crashing into the distant reeds.
“Boom” — Water exploded on impact.
The waves raised caused the speedboat to violently rock, frightening the boatman who hurriedly hunkered down on the boat.
“Oh my dear mother!”
As he was about to cry without tears, he suddenly heard a scoffing laughter and instinctively raised his head to see.
“Trying to escape?”
Pei Jinye snorted disdainfully.
He stood on the deck, stepping toward the sea upfront.
“Boom” — A gust of wind exploded!
The sea shook violently, and his figure surged forth!
The air, compressed by a power almost pure to perfection, exploded into a tumultuous roar without any warning.
The fierce wind swept through, swiftly pushing the yacht the boatman was lying on.
Meanwhile, Pei Jinye himself had already dragged a brief trail of white air currents in midair, descending onto the reeds with an invincible stance.
Out of nowhere, a sword appeared in his hand.
The bright light flickered.
The blood energy boiled wildly, making his sword strike vicious and fierce!
It came slashing down fiercely!
The reeds within a square of ten miles collapsed instantly under the unrivaled force of the strike, and the entire water surface was cleaved by the sword, filled with Sword Qi everywhere!
“No!!!!”
Zhong Wanhao’s hysterical voice echoed amidst the blast but was quickly submerged.
The waves splashed high.
Countless droplets of water scattered, creating a dazzling, multicolored sheen under the sunlight.
Dust settled.
Only the distant small boat wobbled uncertainly.
The boatman stared blankly at the flattened reeds before him.
After Pei Jinye’s sword strike, his pure to extreme Sword Intent still lingered for at least hundreds of meters ahead, now calming down in the surges.
The boatman swore… in all his life, he had never seen such a brutally violent Sword Cultivator.
Pei Jinye paid no attention to his shock.
After devouring Zhong Wanhao’s memories.
The attribute panel updated.
[New Extraordinary Ability: Spirit*Planting]
[New Extraordinary Ability: Spirit Object Grafting]
…
The reason why Zhong Wanhao surpassed Sun Juxian was due to this old man’s ability to graft certain Spiritual Objects.
Objects like the Ice Bud Crystal, which could enhance spiritual power, were enhanced to a second-generation level under his control.
He himself had obtained an abundance of resources, naturally growing much faster than Sun Juxian.
But in the end, he is a Plant Cultivator…
No matter how it’s put, Zhong Wanhao is primarily focused on cultivation.
In terms of actual killing methods, he’s quite a few notches below Pei Jinye, who cultivates both sword and body.
A blood-red seed appeared in his hand.
According to Zhong Wanhao’s memory, this seed was actually a Blood Seed that he had improved upon extensively.
Blood Seeds are mutated Spiritual Objects plus human Extraordinary-Human Genes… which means Zhong Wanhao took the finished product from Judgement Place and further processed it through grafting, thus obtaining this Blood Seed with its own will.
But to say that it had its own will, compared with Jinye’s Blood Demon Tree, it was like an infant facing a boxer.
He extended his hand.
The Blood Demon Tree reached out, directly Devouring and Refining the Blood Seed.
As for Zhong Wanhao’s vast wealth, Pei Jinye naturally had no intention of letting it slip away.
This back-and-forth struggle had already attracted the attention of various factions across Yunmeng Lake.
…
“Brother Song, this level of Combat Power… is probably at the Star Space level, and it’s not just a newly advanced Star Space level!”
The young man beside him said, trembling.
Brother Song, who had met Pei Jinye once before, now also had a thin layer of sweat on his forehead, and after swallowing, he said, “Retreat! It’s not something we can intervene in; report it.”
The appearance of peak combatants clashing over the Thousand Island Sea quickly spread throughout Yunmeng Lake.
It even alarmed the Sword Pavilion.
A young man with a sword on his back and eyes that sparkled like the stars radiated intense Sword Intent.
He now descended into the reed marshes following an old man.
“Such domineering Sword Intent, master… Besides our Sword Pavilion, I didn’t expect there to be such strong Sword Intent in the world. It’s truly unexpected.”
The old man just chuckled, his voice raspy and unhurried, “The world is vast, with no shortage of wonders. Our Sword Pavilion may boast mastery of thousands of sword techniques, but there will always be geniuses… Immerse yourself in the Sword Intent here, remember it. In the future, when you kill him, you can truly achieve the Ruthless Sword Path.”
The young man nodded, and the sword on his back “whooshed” out.
But soon enough, he embarrassingly found…
His own Sword Intent was actually conveying a sense of fear.
This angered him.
“What are you afraid of! What do you have to fear when it’s masterless Sword Intent! Crush it for me!” he yelled in his heart.
His hands rapidly formed sword gestures, trying to control his longsword with his power.
However, in an instant!
The young Swordsman’s face changed drastically.
The God Sword forged by a Ninth Rank Artifact Refiner as if unable to bear some force, exploded with a bang.
Almost at the same time.
The young Swordsman was blown backward.
Midair, he spat out a mouthful of blood forcefully.
“Master, I can’t withstand this Sword Intent! He… he’s too terrifying!” he exclaimed.
Before the young Swordsman could finish, the old man slapped him across the face.
The slap cut off his following words.
“Have you come to your senses?” the old man’s voice was cold, the authoritative presence made the young Swordsman shiver.
He hurriedly lowered his head, “I made a laughingstock of myself in front of master. I was momentarily blinded by my mind and spoke rashly.”
“There is no enemy in this world that cannot be defeated. You, on the other hand, good gracious, haven’t even seen what your opponent looks like yet you’ve already succumbed to defeat. If not for your talent, I would have discarded you today to prevent tarnishing our Sword Pavilion’s reputation!” reprimanded the old man.
The young Swordsman quickly lowered his head: “Master, I realize my mistake.”
The old man turned around, speaking indifferently: “Stay here. When you overcome the fear in your heart, then you may return to the mountain.”
The young Swordsman, his face flushed with shame, dared not say anything else and could only comply.
…
More and more people appeared in the reed marshes.
Soon someone noticed the young Swordsman.
“Isn’t that Xie Xingyuan from the Sword Pavilion?”

“It’s him.”
“He’s… attempting to comprehend the Sword Intent left here by the Sword God! Excellent, such an opportunity belongs to those who find it!”
…
The young Swordsman was speechless.
It was all because of this damn Sword Intent!
