Chapter 405: The Great Battle

"Senior Brother, did you read all the information I gave you about that old fox Qin Tao..."

Although Ye Shiyuan had looked through it and felt that it was not particularly useful.

Even so, he still thanked him. "Thank you."

"Do not mention it. If you win, that old fox will finally no longer be able to remain undefeated forever. I will not have to stay on the third floor all the time either. Maybe I will be able to leave."

Although Zhang Hao had deceived Bai He about many things when they first met. There was one thing Zhang Hao had not lied about. He really had come here to look for someone.

There was a very large arena here, and many, many people had come today. They had all come to watch the match.

After all, who knew how many years it had been. Qin Tao was finally making a move once again. However, this time, the opponent Qin Tao was facing was actually not some famous or powerful person from this place.

It was actually Ye Shiyuan, who had only arrived here not long ago. Some people could not help feeling a little disdainful.

Of course, those who knew about Ye Shiyuan’s strength would never show such an expression.

Ye Shiyuan stood there with an imposing presence. His handsome and refined features were absolutely among the best here. With a long sword in his hand, his figure was tall and straight.

Bai He could not help looking at him a couple more times. "Shiyuan really is handsome. He looks good even just standing over there."

"Host, are you focusing on the wrong thing?"

Ahem... That was indeed true. But Ye Shiyuan really did satisfy every definition Bai He had of a white robed male god. He was handsome, powerful, and when he wore white robes, his tall and straight figure was especially striking.

Bai He held his face in his hands. Although this was really not the right time to be thinking about such things, he still could not help himself!

"Master, Master..."

Xu Feng called out to Bai He several times before Bai He finally came back to his senses. "Is there something wrong?"

"Master, how can you space out at a time like this? Are you not worried about Senior Brother?"

Bai He put aside the thoughts he had just been having and said, "No matter how worried I am, I cannot possibly run up there and help him."

"No. After Senior Brother finishes his challenge, I also want to find a time to challenge him."

At this moment, Xu Feng still had not given up on his desire to challenge Qin Tao.

...

As Qin Tao stepped onto the arena, everyone could not help but gasp. One after another, voices of amazement rang out.

A long sword was also strapped to Qin Tao’s back.

This sword was called Heavenfall Divine Sword, and it was naturally a divine weapon as well. It was said that Qin Tao had forged this sword himself. For a blacksmith to personally forge a divine sword and then be able to use it completely for himself.

This represented just how high the level of compatibility between the sword and its master truly was.

Having fought Ye Shiyuan before, Qin Tao naturally did not dare to hold back too much.

The last time they fought, Qin Tao had been extremely interested in Ye Shiyuan’s swordsmanship. Now, the timing was just right for him to properly test whether Ye Shiyuan was truly worthy of his interest.

As someone who had cultivated for several hundred years, Qin Tao had once also been a blacksmith. When it came to swordsmanship, there was no one in this world whom he truly admired. Even Yi Xing was no exception.

In the blink of an eye, hundreds of moves had already passed. This was completely different from the scene everyone had expected, where Ye Shiyuan would be defeated within just a few moves. Both of them wielded divine swords. Their dazzling sword techniques came one after another, and every move could be blocked by the other.

At the same time, each of them was also able to withstand every technique their opponent used.

Ye Shiyuan narrowed his eyes. Suddenly, he changed the direction of his sword. His wrist paused slightly, and in an instant, he retreated backward.

Qin Tao immediately pursued him while he had the advantage, and Ye Shiyuan raised his sword once again, meeting him head on.

Was this another new sword technique?

This was a unique sword technique belonging to the Dawnmaker Sword. Its level of intricacy was such that even a genius like Ye Shiyuan had no way of mastering it quickly in a short period of time. He had practiced it for a very long time before finally reaching his current level.

Among them was one incredibly exquisite sword technique called The Goal of All Life Is Death.

Ye Shiyuan... had never used this technique before. He knew very clearly what kind of price he would have to pay for using it, and how much spiritual power it would consume.

Qin Tao also revealed a slightly shocked expression.

The power of this technique was truly... enough to remind Qin Tao of the time when he had once faced Yi Xing.

Last time, he had not won. But this time, he would not lose.

The Ye Shiyuan standing before him had, in Qin Tao’s eyes, become the Yi Xing of the past.

"Master, what is this..." What Xu Feng had learned at the very beginning was from Ye Shiyuan, so he actually knew Ye Shiyuan’s techniques very well.

This should be a technique that did not belong to Ye Shiyuan. Perhaps because the power of this technique was simply too great, everyone present revealed shocked expressions.

Others might not know, but Bai He knew it very well. Was this not one of Ye Shiyuan’s ultimate techniques in the original story, The Goal of All Life Is Death?
