for Xu Lin's words, Ginger Cloud didn't bother to respond further, instead turning her gaze to Dan Daozi.Dan Daozi smiled and nodded, "Well, you both are actually very close to my requirements. Since...Back then, when Jiang Yun left the Zhendao Sect from the Shanhai Realm, he took away tens of thousands of swords from the Jianku (sword cave) on Jian Dao Peak, the main peak.

With years of constant battles and bloodshed, these swords have been worn down considerably. Now there are nearly eight thousand left.

At this moment, in order to subdue Lei Hao's tribulation pillar with the power of gold, he had to use all his swords.

Looking at this massive sword, composed of nearly eight thousand blades, everyone couldn't help but be astonished once again, gasping in amazement.

Lei Bufan, who had always sat at the end, had already stood up directly from his seat, his hands clenched into fists, his eyes flashing with lightning, staring deathly at the thick sword.

Wei Heng, who was not far away, had the same look of astonishment on his face. He finally understood why Lei Bufan would be extremely wary of Jiang Yun.

Although Meng Guan's reputation as a diligent cultivator had spread far and wide, no one knew the true extent of his abilities or the techniques he excelled at.

For this, Lei Bufan even went so far as to put aside his pride when he first met Jiang Yun, flattering him in order to test Jiang Yun's character using the strategy of "borrowing a knife to kill someone."

Because Ginger Cloud has never truly made a move!

In the elimination round, Jiang Yun, with astonishing speed and a flash of lightning power, defeated three challengers in an instant.

Before entering the Righteous Path Thunder Realm, facing Yang Chong, a proud son of heaven from the Fa Dao Thunder Realm who took the initiative to provoke, Jiang Yun directly frightened him with his own terrifying aura storm.

In the midst of the tribulation, Jiang Yun used only his monstrously powerful physique to shatter nine tribulation thunders.

This is the first time Jiang Yun truly made a move as Meng Guan, in front of tens of thousands of strong warriors within Lei Ji Tian.

What surprised everyone even more was that at this moment, Jiang Yun wasn't attacking Lei Hao with his formidable power, but with a sword!

This also means that Jiang Yun is also a sword cultivator!

Although many cultivators within the heavenly realm pursue the path of lightning, they naturally know about sword cultivators and their formidable attack power. Among cultivators of the same rank, sword cultivators are generally the strongest.

Therefore, it wasn't difficult for them to surmise that Jiang Yun must have chosen swordsmanship, the most powerful attack style, to counter Lei Hao because he knew his mastery of thunder power was inferior to Lei Hao's.

I have to say, with nearly eight thousand swords gathered together, both its power and its aura are indeed no weaker than Lei Hao's pillar of tribulation lightning formed by eight thousand bolts of tribulation lightning.

Especially the nearly thousand cultivators in the midst of battle, although these eight thousand swords were not directed at them, the terrifying sword energy that could easily shatter space with its sharpness made them feel a bone-chilling cold.

If it weren't for the large formation still being active, they would all have wanted to get as far away from it as possible, away from the battlefield where Lei Hao and Jiang Yun were about to clash.

Although Jiang Yun's swordsmanship amazed everyone, in everyone's hearts, they still believed that Jiang Yun's strength was slightly inferior to Lei Hao.

Because of the disparity in cultivation levels!

Although they didn't know the specifics of Jiang Yun's cultivation realm, it was definitely below the Dao Nature Realm.

Because once one reaches the state of Daoist realization, entering the righteous path thunder sea has absolutely no effect at all.

And when entering the Zhengdao Lei Realm to verify everyone's identity, your cultivation realm will also be tested simultaneously.

If Jiang Yun's cultivation realm had reached the Daoist state, then he would be completely impossible to appear here.

While Lei Hao is not only a genuine Daoist realm, but also a congenital thunder body, he has been staying in this realm for a considerable amount of time. Even if he hasn't reached the peak, it must be very close.

Therefore, in comparison, even if Jiang Yun's strength is strong, he would still not be Lei Hao's opponent.

Even Lei Ji Tianzhu and Di Lingzi shared this belief, which is why Lei Ji Tianzhu allowed Jiang Yun to act without interference.

While the Earth Spirit's eyes rarely held such a solemn expression, they now reflected his readiness to intervene and save Jiang Yun at any moment.

After all, he had promised to support Jiang Yun, so of course he couldn't just let Jiang Yun die at the hands of Lei Hao.

However, there was one person among them who did not think that way.

This person is the Earth Spirit's child.

As Jiang Yun attacked Lei Hao, the Earth Spirit Child could finally be sure that Meng Guan was Jiang Yun!

And the earth spirits, or rather all the demon clans within the Eighteen Ginger Demon Alliance, held a near-blind worship and faith in Jiang Yun.

In their perception, even though Ginger Cloud wasn't invincible, he was always able to create miracle after miracle.

Just like back then, among the group who followed Ginger Cloud to the Road of No Return, almost no one thought Ginger Cloud could lead them safely to their destination.

And in the end, not only did Jiang Yun lead thirty million souls to the Road of No Return, but he also successfully reached the Great Desolate Realm!

These things were learned by Diziling not long ago when he went to the Shanhai Realm from a disciple of Wen Daozhu.

But when he heard the news, he was not too shocked.

Because this is normal for him.

Therefore, he now also firmly believed that Jiang Yun would surely defeat Lei Hao.

Lei Hao's face wore a cold expression as he gazed at the thick sword. Although a flicker of surprise flashed in his eyes, that was all.

With his ability, he naturally also knows that lightning overcomes wood, and metal defeats wood.

But this opposition is not absolute.

A sword can cleave a tree, but a tree can also shatter a sword. It all comes down to who has the greater strength.

And Lei Hao was very clear about the power of these eight thousand tribulation thunders converging together. He wouldn't say it could destroy heaven and earth, but even among those of the same rank, no one could withstand it.

Not to mention, his realm is definitely inferior to that of his own Ginger Cloud.

"Boom!"

Under the watchful eyes of all, the massive sword and the pillar of tribulation thunder finally collided with a deafening crash.

In an instant, thunder roared and golden light blazed!

Before anyone could clearly see who was stronger or weaker, one after another figure flew out of the golden light like shards of stone.

That is nearly a thousand cultivators in the formation!

Although they were heavily thrown to the ground, leaving them embarrassed and even injured, at this moment they secretly rejoiced that they had been thrown out of the large formation.

Because of the destructive force emanating from the collision of the sword and the Thunder Pillar, not only was the entire Heavenly Thunder Formation instantly shattered and collapsed, but a gigantic black hole with a radius of a hundred zhang also formed.

If they are still in the fray, they are surely doomed!

They were thrown out, but Ginger Cloud and Lei Hao remained at the point of impact, even standing still. None of them moved.

Lei Hao sneered and said coldly, "Meng Guan, you're dead!"

At the moment of impact, the enormous greatsword vanished halfway down its blade. It was clear that almost half of the sword, made up of countless blades, had been shattered directly into pieces, even vanishing into nothingness.

while the lightning pillar was only destroyed by one-third.

Of course, the Lightning Pillar is clearly stronger.

At this moment, everyone believed the outcome was decided.

Although Meng Guan's display shocked and awed everyone, revealing terrifying power, the disparity in their realms ultimately rendered him inferior to Lei Hao.

Therefore, what awaits Meng Guan is—death!

Even Lei Ji Tianzhu let out a breath of relief, glanced at Di Xinghe who was frowning beside him, and a sneer echoed in his heart.

Even if your starry sky backs him up, it can't change the outcome.

Unless you make a move yourself, but even then, although I wouldn't dare kill you, at least I could capture you first!

However, just at that moment, Jiang Yun's equally cold voice followed closely behind: "Not necessarily!"

As his words fell, the remaining four thousand swords suddenly exploded and scattered, but instead of falling, they arranged themselves into—a sword formation!
