Divine King of Honour

Chapter 1971: The Woman in White

The Sword and Shield Technique is seldom used by anyone.

The so-called Sword and Shield Technique is the combination of swordsmanship and shield technique, thus forming a powerful combination fighting method.

This combat was used on battlefields in the past, and later discovered that in personal battles, the Sword Shield Rule can also exert super powerful combat strength.

Therefore, some powerful Divine-level Experts would still choose the Sword and Shield Technique as their combat method, which is also something Xu Nian only learned after arriving in the Divine World.

For instance, Xu Nian himself practiced Shield Technique, and with the cooperation of Earth Attribute Heavenly Dao, he can also exert super combat power.

"This Lu Cloud’s sword and shield combined combat strength is quite impressive. Even if his enlightenment is only at the Fifth-level Heavenly Dao, in terms of combat power, he’s still very strong. Xu Nian, even with Sixth-level enlightenment, may not be able to exert the true power of the Sixth Level." Someone spoke.

Many people around nodded in agreement.

Heavenly Dao Enlightenment is one thing, but the combat power exerted in battle is another.

No matter how high the Heavenly Dao Enlightenment is, if it’s not integrated into battle, it’s still useless.

Apparently, in their view, Xu Nian, despite having high enlightenment, is still questionable in actual combat power.

Yet, the woman sitting on the main seat was watching the upcoming battle with interest.

"Third Elder, who do you think will win?" The woman suddenly asked the elder beside her.

"Reporting to Great Elder, I think Lu Cloud will win. Firstly, his cultivation is much higher; although his Heavenly Dao Enlightenment is slightly inferior to Xu Nian’s, his Sword Shield combined combat skill is very strong, both offensively and defensively. Xu Nian may not be able to block it." The elder respectfully replied.

The woman smiled and remained silent, not providing any response.

The elder, helpless, had to continue watching the upcoming battle.

The battle had already reignited at this moment.

Xu Nian, holding the God Sword, with sharp eyes, looked at the God Peak Expert charging straight at him and immediately swung his sword.

"Clang!"

Xu Nian’s sword directly struck the opponent’s shield.

The powerful shield was enveloped in strong Earth Attribute Heavenly Dao Power, Xu Nian’s sword seemed like it slashed into a swamp, not only failing to exert any power but also seeming stuck.

"Ah, what a clever Unloading Skill." Xu Nian showed a trace of surprise on his face.

This God Peak Expert’s utilization of the shield was apparently quite proficient.

But there was no time for Xu Nian to think more, as the battle sword beneath the opponent’s shield slashed towards him fiercely.

This sword likewise contained powerful Earth Attribute Heavenly Dao Power, slashing out a massive Sword Light.

Xu Nian’s eyes instantly sharpened, and a powerful golden light flickered in his hands, surprisingly using strong Heavenly Dao Power to condense a golden shield.

"Clang!"

A crisp sound rang out.

The collision sound was like a grand bell, awe-inspiring.

The wave formed by the clash between the two instantly blew them apart.

Xu Nian remained unscathed, but the shield condensed by Heavenly Dao Power in his hand was already shattered and dissipated.

After all, this wasn’t a true Divine Artifact, to withstand such a strong strike was already the limit.

"You understand shield utilization?" The opponent looked at Xu Nian with a face full of surprise.

Clearly, Xu Nian’s mastery of the shield just now was extremely skillful, not like a move used in a moment of reflex.

"Indeed, I understand a bit." Xu Nian said with a smile.

He was truly adept at shields from his Earth Attribute Divine Demon Avatar, but now he was fighting with the Gold Attribute Avatar, unable to use Earth Attribute Heavenly Dao Power.

Resisting temporarily was possible, but in true combat, he still couldn’t exert the shield’s power.

It was just unexpected that this God Peak Expert’s insight was so keen, recognizing his proficiency in Shield Technique at a glance.

"Since you’re proficient, why not use your shield?" The God Peak Expert said with a frown.

"Because it’s unnecessary," Xu Nian smiled.

Then, he swung his God Sword again.

This sword instantly transformed into an extreme golden blade.

With one sweep, it seemed to cleave through everything in the world.

The God Peak Expert was instantly alarmed, hurriedly using his shield to ward off.

"Clang!"

Xu Nian’s Sword Radiance struck the shield, instantly sending the God Peak Expert flying along with the shield.

Looking at the shield again, Xu Nian had already sliced it into two pieces with one sword.

"What? Isn’t this a Top-Grade Heavenly Divine Artifact shield? How did it get sliced into two pieces with one sword?" Someone exclaimed in surprise.

"Indeed a terrifying sword, the edge of that sword just now was extremely sharp, even within Sixth-level Heavenly Dao its power was quite strong." The God Strongmen in the hall said in shock.

The woman on the main seat also showed a satisfied smile.

Clearly, Xu Nian’s usage of Metal Heavenly Dao Sixth Level was not only proficient but extremely high.

Not even ordinary Sixth-level Heavenly Dao experts could utilize it to this extent.

"Cough!"

The God Peak Expert coughed out two mouthfuls of blood, looking at Xu Nian with shock.

Obviously, he hadn’t expected Xu Nian’s strength to be so great.

Though there was only a First Level of Heaven difference, he felt worlds apart.

"That sword’s power was already eighty hundred; how did you do it?" The God Peak Expert asked in shock.

Xu Nian smiled without giving an answer.

Instead, he swung his sword again.

This sword was even more powerful than before.

In a flash, the God Peak Expert didn’t even have a chance to defend, his body was directly cut into two.

Finally, his form turned to ashes, dissipating in the Sealing Heaven Map.

"We won, we won." Seeing this scene, Song Ren and Fang Yu were delighted.

Xu Nian had defeated this God Peak Expert.

Meaning the Black Mountain Territory triumphed over the Black Evil Mountain.

Thus, the Black Mountain Territory was now eligible to advance to the next round.

Meaning they would at least rank in the top eighteen.

This was unprecedented.

"Buzz!"

Xu Nian appeared in the external world.

The eyes of everyone around looking at him instantly turned respectful.

Obviously, Xu Nian’s power had conquered them.

Plus Xu Nian’s identity as the Great Artisan God, everyone present could guess the great potential.

"Your name is Xu Nian, right? The battle just now was impressive. Based on your fight, you should be close to breaking through to the Seventh-level Heavenly Dao," suddenly said the woman in white.

As soon as these words were spoken, everyone around was amazed.

Close to breaking through to the Seventh-level Heavenly Dao?

Could this guy be about to break through to the Seventh-level Heavenly Dao?

What frightening enlightenment ability that would be.

Xu Nian was also surprised.

Unexpectedly, this woman in white would suddenly speak to him and see the fact he was about to break through at a glance.

Indeed, he was close to breaking through.

One could even say, his original bottleneck seemed to have slightly broken through just now.

He could perhaps break through to the Seventh-level Heavenly Dao at any moment.
