Seth led the three martial artists on the Astonishing World List to a life-and-death battle at the mountain peak.

Meanwhile, Dustin was still the center of attention at the foot of the mountain.

However, Dustin felt much more at ease than having to feel Cesar's stare.

"Abigail, consume this tablet quickly."

Dustin took the opportunity to create some distance between him and the enemies. Then, he moved toward the injured Abigail and gave her a tablet for healing.

Abigail didn't hesitate and swallowed it.

Her initial pale complexion soon flushed with color. Although she was not fully recovered, the pill helped her regain some of her energy.

"Sir, who is that man just now? He's so capable!" Abigail was curious.

"He's the Sword Whisperer, Seth Hughes," Dustin explained.

"What? He's the Sword Whisperer, Seth?" Abigail widened her eyes in shock and joy.

Although it hadn't been long since she entered the martial world, she had also heard of Seth's name.

Seth was someone even her gr

    Dustin flicked his wrist as he got closer. Immediately, Celestial Blade exploded into thousands of sword shadows. Then, all of them rushed toward Nestor."Angry Ironfirst!" Nestor yelled. A golden light burst out from his body. Instantly, it formed a three-feet-tall Ironfirst illusion. The Ironfist illusion was like an armor protecting Nestor inside it.The sword shadows Dustin summoned slashed on the Ironfist illusion. However, it only sent sparks flying and did not manage to break it."You can't even break my defense. How are you going to kill me?" Nestor stood there with an arrogant and imposing aura.Without a word, Dustin continued to attack.As Celestial Blade slashed faster and faster, the sword shadows increased in numbers. When it collided with Ironfist illusion, both sides produced energy shockwaves that surged outward like waves.The energy shockwaves got larger and more powerful than the last.Nestor didn't just defend but also attacked back. His attacks were bold

    Frost raised an eyebrow and answered, "Lost? Ever since I started practicing swordsmanship, I have never lost.""You're lucky. However, it's a shame at the same time." Seth shook his head. "The world consists of many things and a balance of opposites. There will be ups and downs in life. That's an unchanging rule. "If you never experienced failure, how could you comprehend the meaning behind the way of the sword?""Did you lose before?" Frost questioned."Of course not," Seth denied.Frost was rendered speechless. It seemed that Seth was just uttering nonsense.Seth had a mixed expression. "Although I've never lost a battle, I'm an utter loser as a person. "In my early days, I only focused on sword training. Thus, I neglected many people and let many people down. In the end, I became a lonely man. "Later, I hid my identity and lived a peaceful life in the fields. After I met someone I loved, I realized how beautiful life can be. Swordsmanship is way too boring.""Seth, I'

    With just his sword, he broke through all layers of defense. The sky and the earth trembled, and all the soldiers fled the scene. Since that battle, the small town was formally renamed Frostbane Citadel. As for Frost Bane, he became the leader of the citadel. Until today, the residents of the citadel lived and worked happily and peacefully.Seth might have been famous, but he'd been living under the radar for the past decade. His past glory was long forgotten. Frost was living a completely different life as he trained and continued improving his skills with each passing day. As such, no one knew for sure who would win this battle."Martial artists will always be martial artists. They'll never look at the big picture. If you like to win this much, let's see what you've got."Cesar narrowed his eyes with a gloomy expression. He didn't care if Frost would die in the battle. All he cared about was for Frost to exhaust Seth's strength. It'd be helpful if Seth were exhausted from

    A loud explosion could be heard. Frost's Starshine clashed vehemently with the Dragon Sparrow Sword.A huge wave of energy was generated when the tips of the swords collided. The surge of energy rippled outward and left a trail of destruction as it broke rocks and trees. The surrounding walls of the Scenic Monastery, which were located far away, started crumbling. The building shook in the wake of the energy ripple.At the base of the mountain, the crowd heard a loud explosion. When they looked up, they saw a bright ring of light in the sky. The sky turned dark as the sun was hidden behind the clouds. The people in that area could feel the terrifying pressure even though they were far from the battle. It was good that the battle was on the top of the mountain. If it had happened near the crowd, there would have been a lot of casualties.…Frost didn't stop after the first attack. Instead, he immediately followed up with another vicious attack. The first move was just to tes

    A loud buzz could be heard as a gigantic ice sword came out slowly from the middle of the Hexagonal Formation. The ice sword was twelve feet long and five feet wide. It brought terrifying chills to those near it. It was as if it was a sword from the depths of hell.The coldness spread quickly, and in one breath, it had already reached a few hundred feet away. Everything in its way was frozen. Even strong fighters like Cesar and Elder Shade shivered involuntarily when the cold air swept over them."What technique is this? I've never seen this before!" Cesar looked bewildered. Frost's ice sword wasn't derived from his internal energy. Instead, it was brought into existence through the formation. As such, it was very powerful and could potentially destroy the earth. It was likely that even the Sword Whisperer couldn't withstand attacks from this sword."This sword is called the Destroyer. I've maintained this sword in extreme cold for eight years with the sole purpose of defeat

    After the explosion, it was chaotic at the base of the mountain. However, it was eerily silent on top of the mountain. When the dust settled, the whole top of Quandary Mountain was bald. It was as if a typhoon had torn through the top. The Scenic Monastery was nothing but rubble, and most of the plants were uprooted.Even Cesar and Elder Shade, who were observing from the side, had to retreat further to avoid the aftermath of the explosion. At this moment, Seth stood quietly in the middle of the mountaintop. The Dragon Sparrow Sword glittered and floated in front of him.A few yards away, Frost's shimmering blue sword was stuck to the ground while he looked very pale. The skin between his thumb and index finger was slashed open, and fresh blood dripped onto the rock. His arms were trembling involuntarily."Frost Bane, you've lost," Seth said casually."Your sword skills are amazing, but unfortunately, you're still not too weak.""Who said I lost?" With a determined look,

    When the swords collided, Frost's crimson sword exploded into a bloody mist. As for Frost, he lay several feet away with a pale face and blood trickling out from the corner of his mouth.The Dragon Sparrow Sword was sent flying far away in a different direction as well. It then got stuck in a huge rock."Great! Now's our chance!" Cesar's eyes lit up when he saw that the Dragon Sparrow Sword was out of control temporarily. He quickly launched his attack without any delay. He put an arrow to his bow and channeled his internal energy into the arrow. The arrow turned black, emitting a black light and extreme chills surrounding it.As it quickly gathered momentum, the black arrow was transformed into a sharp black light as it was aimed at Seth's chest. It was a fast and deadly shot. There was no warning, and it was fired at the right time. It could be said that it was the perfect sneak attack."Let's see how you can dodge this!" Cesar snickered cruelly. Seth might be the Sword

    "Alaric?" Seth's eyes widened as the fiery red spear pierced the sky. In an instant, he recognized the silhouette of the unexpected visitor. The attack had a startling speed, catching Seth off guard. Unable to summon his Dragon Sparrow Sword in time, he had to resort to using his finger as an improvised blade against the incoming fiery red spear.A thunderous collision reverberated through the air. His fingertip met the spearhead, and it released a powerful wave of energy that rippled outward. The entire scene seemed to freeze at that moment, adding a dramatic intensity. Seth held his arm up. Then, a golden sword rippled as it emanated from his fingertip in defiance of the fiery red spear. A luminous spectacle unfolded as the golden sword rippled. The fiery red spear clashed, forming circles of energy that emitted a radiant glow. At the spear's shaft stood a white-haired older man with crimson eyes, poised on the weapon as though it were an extension of him. His gaze bore do

    "Since Madam Penelope has spoken, I’ll follow her lead," Alloy said with a smile. "What about Mr. Hadley and Sage Foyer?""I'm in if you want to make a bet," Cyrus replied coolly."It's not every day we get an opportunity like this. Let me stir things up a bit." Kaden nodded with a grin.Once the three had agreed, Penelope waved for Abigail to come over.Soon, Abigail approached them with a wide grin. "Esteemed guests, I hear you want to bet. The current odds are—bet on Dustin to win, and you'll get 1.6 times your stake. Bet on Glenn, and it's only 0.4."She continued, "And no worries—if you win, I'll exchange your winnings for celestial stones." Abigail smiled brightly, and the other parties' eyes gleamed with the unmistakable shine of greed.Many had already placed their bets with her. Though she couldn't control the match's outcome, she knew how to adjust the odds to her advantage. Over time, that could turn into a huge fortune."I'm betting on Glenn to win." Cyrus quickly

    "We're ready for the ultimate showdown of this tournament. The winner will be crowned the Combat Tournament Champion. Now, let's welcome both contestants to the ring." Oron's voice thundered as he stepped onto the battle ring.There was thunderous applause and cheers from the audience.The long-awaited showdown was finally at hand. Today's outcome wasn't just about personal glory, but it would also decide the future of the martial world.If Glenn triumphed and claimed the crown, the Sword Union would rise as the undisputed guild. The Celestial Alliance and the Mystic Arts Order would have no choice but to bow to their supremacy.But if Dustin won, it would be even more sensational. A dark horse, without any guild affiliation, defeating the elite disciples of the major guild—such a story would send shockwaves through the martial world.Once that happened, every major guild would fight tooth and nail to claim him. It would spark a fierce battle for dominance."Dr. Rhys! Good luck!"

    "H-Hold on! I-I surrender!" Abigail said urgently. With the sword inches away from her throat, she decisively raised both hands in a gesture of surrender.She didn't expect herself to win the match. Her goal was simply to take this opportunity to test Dustin's strength and also gauge her own progress. But now, it was clear that there was still a sizable gap between them."You've done well. In a few more years, I might not even be able to keep up with you." Dustin smiled and lowered his Celestial Blade. His words weren't flattery; he genuinely saw potential in Abigail.The dark Phoenix flames carried a corrosive power that even his mystical pure energy couldn't resist. In other words, Abigail's black flames were the bane of any martial artist.Her journey in the martial world was still short—barely two years. She hadn't unlocked the full potential of her Phoenix bloodline yet. But with more training and experience, the sky was the limit for her."Don't try to console me, Sir. I'm n

    With a resounding bang, the golden light erupted with a burst of terrifying energy wave. In an instant, the earth trembled, and fierce winds whipped through the air.Dustin and his sword were sent flying several yards. After landing, he stumbled back several steps before finally steadying himself.He looked up and saw that Abigail's body was now covered in a layer of golden armor, though he couldn't tell when it had happened. The armor glowed brightly, and it made her look imposing and striking.It was clearly a divine artifact.The Mystic Arts Order had been around for centuries, with deep roots and countless treasures. As the Grand Sorceress, Abigail would obviously have several divine artifacts for protection.Dustin wasn't surprised, but the armor's counterforce caught him off guard. Not only did it protect her, but it also had offensive capabilities.When his sword struck the armor earlier, the blow didn't leave a scratch. Instead, the armor absorbed the hit and sent the for

    Dustin raised his hand as the black feathers rained down on him. A white energy shield flared into existence to form a wall before him.The feathers slammed into the shield and sent ripples across its surface but failed to break through. However, the black flames on the feathers spread across the shield and burned through its energy at a visible pace. In the blink of an eye, the once impenetrable barrier cracked open and left a gaping hole.Dustin couldn't hide his surprise. His mystical pure energy was far stronger than the average grandmaster's internal energy in offense and defense. It was meant to be impenetrable. He hadn't anticipated it couldn't hold up against Abigail's phoenix flame.Seeing the raw strength of her bloodline, he knew he couldn't afford to take any chances. As the black flames spread, he swiftly waved his hand to summon a furious gust of wind that sent the feathers and flames flying."Glaring Wings!" Abigail wasn't done yet. She quickly formed hand seals and

    Abigail moved with lightning speed, and her figure weaved in and out like a shadow. Her swift movements left a blur of afterimages that was hard for anyone watching to keep up.On the contrary, Dustin stood still without making any movement."Fallen Fist!"After closing in, she unleashed a flurry of strikes—dozens of black palm shadows slamming toward his body, and each one was like a bullet aimed at its target.Abigail practiced a unique martial art, and it was imbued with voodoo-like properties that could kill anyone who made contact with her. But Dustin's body was immune to all poisons, so it was a perfect counter to her deadly attack.As the shadow palms closed in, he remained unshaken and thrust his palm forward.A fierce gust of wind surged and ripped through the air with unrelenting force. It collided with the black palm shadows.Abigail's black palm shadows exploded on impact and disintegrated into thick clouds of dark mist that quickly spread. Within moments, the mist e

    The whole arena suddenly fell dead silent. Everyone stared blankly, and not a soul dared to breathe. Alloy shot to his feet in the main spectator seats, and his face was tense with worry. Yet, he didn't dare make a sound. He feared it might startle Glenn into making a mistake that could cost Fenley's life.After all, Fenley represented the future of the Celestial Alliance. Alloy had invested all his effort into Fenley, and he provided him with endless resources. If Fenley were to die in the match, it would deal a devastating blow to the entire guild.While Alloy was gripped with worry, Cyrus and Penelope cheered silently. They secretly hoped Glenn's sword would strike Fenley. If that happened, the Celestial Alliance would take at least a decade to regain its former glory.Fenley's body stiffened as he stared at the Fang Master hovering inches from him. A shiver ran through his spine as goosebumps prickled his skin. Sweat trickled down his face, and each drop hit the ground with a

    "Glenn had only seven swords in the past. I didn't expect that in just one year, two more divine swords would recognize him as their master. This punk is much better than I was back then," Cyrus remarked. He stroked his chin with a look of surprise and approval. He had always believed in Glenn's potential, but Glenn's performance had still exceeded his expectations.After all, the more swords Glenn wielded, the stronger he became. He had already topped the Legendary List with just seven swords. Now, with nine, his strength had grown even more overwhelming."He truly is the Chosen One." Even Kaden couldn't help but sigh.The nine divine swords recognized their master and responded with ease. Glenn's talent and cultivation were leagues ahead of his peers.Every generation brought forth new talent, and the old had no choice but to step aside for the new generation. Compared to their time, today's youth were on another level—monsters in their own right."Now, this is going to be int

    Compared to the second green sword, Glenn's third sword was even more powerful. As it descended, accompanied by the fury of a fire dragon, it carried the destructive force of a world-shattering storm.Fenley, whose energy flow was disrupted earlier, watched the fiery red long sword streak toward like a falling meteor. His heart raced and was gripped by a sudden sense of impending doom.With a roar, he risked the backlash effect and unleashed a powerful surge of internal energy. The ethereal divine spirit behind him instantly transformed into a figure with three heads and six arms. This was the complete form of the Four Elements of God's Technique.At that instant, he threw everything he had into the fight. He controlled the spirit to slam its giant arms into the flaming sword. With a loud explosion, the sword tore through the spirit's palms and continued its unyielding path toward Fenley. But its speed had slowed slightly.Without hesitation, he controlled the spirit to strike ag
