I Am Loaded With Passive Skills

Chapter 3832: Chapter 1847: The New Path

"He retreated!"

"The Ghost Sword Immortal was forced to retreat!"

Even if it was just a half-step back, the spectators at Lingyu Mountain erupted.

This was the Holy Emperor, his true self present, let alone both the Ghost Hunter and the Will Ghost joining forces, yet still forced half-step back.

The most crucial point, the Will Ghost attempted a distant block but only blocked loneliness.

Since the Hundred Ghosts Altar was invoked from start to finish, it failed to isolate any attacks.

All defenses under Elder Dao the Flamboyant’s repetitively deceptive use of Ancient Sword Technique were rendered ineffective.

——Also got hit in the face!

"Was it foreshadowing?"

"Ghost Sword Immortal battles the Eighth Sword Immortal, although the first round was a distant exchange, he retreated half a step! What’s next?"

"I don’t think so! Ghost Sword Immortal was just careless, never expected Elder Dao the Flamboyant to still venture so recklessly, relying on using Xiao Kongtong’s body, thinking he wouldn’t be harmed, right?"

"If face to face, not to mention his 10 Sections of the Finger Sword has worn out its substantial damage, the upcoming counterattack from Ghost Sword Immortal would certainly be enough for Elder Dao the Flamboyant to take a hit!"

"But I feel there’s no ’if,’ a half-step is still a step, winning half is still winning... oh, it’s also winning."

"Hehe, then I think Elder Dao the Flamboyant has three losses, firstly, not daring to reveal his true body, this is one loss; successfully angering the Ghost Sword Immortal, this is two losses; having these two defeats means he has three!"

"Fine, fine, you win, you haven’t lost, your whole family hasn’t uncle’d!"

"I’m just talking facts, why are you obsessive Elder Dao fans getting upset?"

"I’m mad at you!"

"..."

There are many spectators at Lingyu Mountain.

Opinions on this round of exchange vary widely.

It seems Elder Dao the Flamboyant and Xiao Kongtong merged and won half a step, but it’s just half a step, unable to match the myth that the "Eighth Sword Immortal" once created.

Higher the expectation, larger the disappointment.

Most people want to see the Eighth Sword Immortal, if truly revealed, defeat strong with weak in one sword slaying the Holy Emperor, that would be truly stunning and extraordinary!

Reality, however, feels painfully stark.

If winning half-step is victory, it inevitably reminds one that in the past battle, Elder Dao the Flamboyant ended in a miserable defeat.

Miserable defeat is still a defeat, having lost, it’s inherently hard to turn it back to a win!

The myth itself, already blemished, and hasn’t fulfilled expectations, indicating an issue with the myth itself.

"The young Elder Dao the Flamboyant was Fantasy Sword Technique, the old Elder Dao looks void, could he truly dare not face the battle?"

"On the side of Time Realm Rift, Kui Leihan’s performance is also mediocre, loud thunder, small raindrops, no slaying the gods, huh?"

"The three Ancestral Gods seem to retreat, not fighting, like Holy Emperor, not out of fear, but more like... charging up for action?"

Someone combines the overall performance of Hua Changdeng arriving at five regions, and such battle situations in Time Realm Rift, beginning to sway standpoint, rejoining sides.

Getting hit in the face, retreating half a step, insignificant.

In the overall situation, Saint Servant’s performance after Hua Changdeng’s arrival indeed has some flavor of fanning the flames.

No matter how others comment, what views, can’t change the course of battle.

Tears in Hua Changdeng’s eyes have already evaporated, now only his nose is slightly red, he notices Xiao Kongtong’s gaze but pays no mind.

He’s not a man bound by small matters, and wouldn’t despair over a half-step retreat.

After half a step back, he simply retreated another half-step.

Then touching his nose, he chuckled lightly, summoned the copper lamp, reached out to guide, and two remnant souls flew out.

One sword one soul, the extra seems complimentary.

Even if the opponent is not Xiao Kongtong, I didn’t accept the commitment, you Elder Dao the Flamboyant have shown yourself, why not give you some face?

"Chi Chi..."

But after Xiao Kongtong finished the battle, like a wooden stump, only sword cognition sizzling all over weaving, controlling the body never falling.

He has no strength left to move.

Mei Siren hurried forward to catch the remnant soul, couldn’t help but sigh.

Unexpectedly, before entering the tower, Li Fugui was a person, after exiting the tower Li Fugui isn’t even a person, only some soul fragments remain.

"You backed down."

Clearly it was Hua Changdeng who retreated, but he stared at the fractured Xiao Kongtong, after reclaiming Hundred Ghosts Altar, opened up again:

"Lucky to win me by a margin, yet handed over the trump card, this isn’t you."

"And if you truly have left only these things, I’m very disappointed."

Xiao Kongtong’s lips wriggled, took a long while, to utter a response — this time everyone heard clear, it wasn’t himself, but Elder Dao the Flamboyant’s voice:

"I’m at All Time Forgotten Sorrow Pavilion."

Of course Hua Changdeng saw that, not just within Fantasy Sword Technique, but in Li Fugui’s soul memory too.

He didn’t care about these, the only concern at this moment was that fleeting appearance of the youthful Elder Dao the Flamboyant at the last instant, truly or falsely:

"What was that?"

If that was true, its power derived from sword cognition, far surpassing sword cognition, giving enough threat, Elder Dao the Flamboyant might still have power to fight.

If that was illusion, only a daring move of Fantasy Sword Technique, then Hua Changdeng’s burning desire to fight again thirty years later would become languid.

"Sword Me."

Elder Dao the Flamboyant was succinct, with no intention of explaining further.

Hua Changdeng pondered these two words carefully, somewhat amused, was "Sword Me" created to counter his "Sword Demon"?

Even the name chosen is so targeted!

Yet Elder Dao the Flamboyant is rather clever, knowing the intensity of sword cognition couldn’t withstand even one of my great success stage Sword Demon Three Swords.

However...

This Sword Me, what Path does it tread?

Though Elder Dao the Flamboyant is exceptionally talented, with top-notch Enlightenment abilities, often achieving superior blues surpassed by blues, but that’s it.

A legend is for telling to mere mortals.
