Bang!
Under the astonished gazes of everyone, the Kunlun Sect Leader slid seven or eight meters across the ground before stopping in front of the six major sects.
"Sect Leader!"
Seeing this, the Kunlun disciples rushed forward to check on their Sect Leader.
However, the Kunlun Sect Leader's condition was not optimistic. His internal energy had been scattered, and he was unable to stand up for a while.
If he wanted to recover, it would likely take at least three to five months.
Daoist Chongxu, while shocked by Wu Tian's strength, also said with some anger, "Youngster, you are truly too bold!"
"How dare you do such a thing to the Kunlun Sect Leader? Have you considered the consequences?"
Wu Tian smiled and said, "This shouldn't be considered my problem, should it? This was a spar, after all. Fists and feet have no eyes, so how can you blame me?"
"Besides, his current state is entirely due to his own unstable internal energy. Ultimately, it's a result of his insufficient cultivation."
What Wu Tian said was actually the truth. He hadn't intended to do anything to the Kunlun Sect Leader.
It was just that the Kunlun Sect Leader had exerted too much force, inflating himself like a balloon, and a poke was enough to burst it.
But how could the people from the six major sects listen to Wu Tian's explanation?
In their eyes, Wu Tian's words were merely mockery.
The Sect Leader of the Huashan Sect was good friends with the Kunlun Sect Leader, so he naturally could not tolerate Wu Tian's remarks.
He gritted his teeth and said, "Kid, it seems you do have some skill. Since that's the case, let my Huashan Sect have a go at your skills!"
With that, the Huashan Sect Leader leaped forward.
As he sped along, his long sword was already drawn and then thrust directly at Wu Tian.
The Huashan Swordplay was also a renowned sword technique, comprising thirteen moves. Like Mount Hua itself, it was perilous, appearing elegant and lofty but harboring hidden dangers. A slight misstep could lead to death.
The Huashan Sect Leader was a master of swordsmanship. His figure still lingered in the air as the sword's edge reached Wu Tian.
"You can die without regret having fallen beneath my sword!"
Wu Tian sneered, suddenly raising his hand and lightly flicking the sword's body with his finger.
Instantly, a powerful force permeated the sword and then, like a darting venomous snake, surged along the blade towards the Huashan Sect Leader.
The Huashan Sect Leader's expression changed drastically. He could clearly feel that the sword in his hand was out of his control!
If he hadn't immediately countered with his internal energy, he would have likely dropped his sword!
"Such potent internal energy!" The Huashan Sect Leader was truly startled.
Under such a powerful assault, he dared not confront it head-on. He twisted the sword's tip, deflecting the force.
His body was also repelled several steps, but he immediately pushed off the ground with his back foot, stopped abruptly, and then charged at Wu Tian once more!
This time, his momentum was stronger and fiercer than before. As he reached Wu Tian, without a word, he tightly gripped the sword hilt with both hands—
And then swung the sword down!
Splitting the Mountain!
Many people believed that Splitting the Mountain was a fierce saber technique.
But few knew that it was actually evolved from the Huashan Swordplay.
The true Splitting the Mountain was a sword technique!
And it possessed the most authentic power!
Legend had it that if one reached the pinnacle of mastery, as long as the sword's material could keep up, then even cutting through metal and steel would be no problem!
Witnessing the formidable display, the Sect Leaders of the six major sects were stunned.
"I didn't expect the Huashan Sect Leader to use Splitting the Mountain on the second move. It seems the opponent's strength is truly not to be underestimated!"
"So what? The move Splitting the Mountain, when still, is formidable. When it moves, it's like thunder and lightning. This kid is bound to lose!"
While the Sect Leaders were discussing, the Huashan Sect Leader's long sword had already been fully brought down.
Wu Tian looked up at the sword's edge, feeling a mountain-like heavy wind pressure bearing down on him.
He could even clearly see the faint cracks appearing on the sword's edge.
This was a treasure sword forged from fine steel, its hardness was extraordinary.
Yet now, even such a treasure sword had cracked!
This showed that the move Splitting the Mountain was indeed extraordinary.
But even so, Wu Tian still had no intention of dodging.
His body did not waver in the slightest, and his expression remained unfazed.
Suddenly, he raised his hand towards the sky and actually caught the sword's edge with his bare hand!
"How is this possible!"
Such an astonishing sight almost made everyone spit blood.
But the most shocked was the Huashan Sect Leader.
He knew the power of Splitting the Mountain well, always considering it his last resort.
But this move, capable of slaying ghosts and gods, was easily caught by Wu Tian. How could this be possible?
The Huashan Sect Leader felt as if he were dreaming, his mind becoming hazy.
At this moment, Wu Tian smiled faintly, "What's wrong? Are you still feeling sleepy at a time like this?"
"That won't do. You should wake up first."
With that, Wu Tian simply clenched his hand, and before everyone's eyes, the Huashan Sect Leader's treasure sword shattered!
The shock had barely consumed the Huashan Sect Leader's heart when, in the next second, the sword fragments swept towards the Huashan Sect Leader like a storm.
The Huashan Sect Leader only let out a scream before flying out, landing on the ground like a blood-soaked corpse.
The people from the six major sects quickly surrounded him. They saw that the Huashan Sect Leader's body had been pierced by the sword fragments.
Blood had stained his clothes red, making him look terrifying!
He lay on the ground, gasping for breath, likely close to death.
Abbess Mieh and Master Yuandeng immediately began channeling their internal energy to the Huashan Sect Leader, while Daoist Chongxu said indignantly:
"You have gone too far! You clearly intended to kill him!"
Wu Tian coldly chuckled, "Otherwise? He even used such a move, what do you expect me to do?"
"Did you ever consider that if I couldn't withstand it, I might have been killed?"
"You're blaming me now, but where were you earlier?"
Daoist Chongxu was rendered speechless by Wu Tian's retort. Indeed, he hadn't intended to save Wu Tian earlier.
And if Wu Tian had been severely injured, would he have then reprimanded the Huashan Sect Leader?
Seeing that he had no words, Wu Tian added lightly, "Enough with the nonsense. He is the Huashan Sect Leader, and he possesses abundant internal energy.
"With your internal energy protecting him, rest assured he won't die. Now, please invite the next one."
Just as Daoist Chongxu was about to step forward, the Sect Leader of the Kongtong Sect stepped out first.
His expression was grim as he said, "Our six major sects are all renowned sects. How can we fall into the hands of a mere brat like you today?"
"Sect Leader of the Kongtong Sect, I come to offer my guidance!"
