Lin Beifan sat down and smiled, In the past, when masters dueled, they either chose to fight on a mountain or by a river or lake. The most powerful duel would be in the Capital City! But there is a place that no one has ever tried!

What place? The Sword Immortal asked.

Lin Beifan pointed to the sky, Have you ever thought about fighting in the sky?

In the sky? The Sword Immortal was confused, How can we fight in the sky? I cant fly

Even though he was a grandmaster and had excellent lightness skills, he could only hover in the air briefly using his abundant true qi. He couldnt fly up to the sky!

That was something only immortals could do!

People really cant fly up to the sky, but that was in the past. Now we have a chance! Lin Beifan grinned, Our empire has developed a flying artifact called the Great Air Balloon that can carry people to the sky! Then you can fight in the sky!

Yes! The Sword Immortals eyes gleamed.

Just think about it. This will be an earth-shattering battle! Lin Beifan danced excitedly, Two young and extraordinary martial artists, one is a sword immortal, the other is a saint of the saber, fighting in the sky like gods and immortals. It will definitely become a legend in the martial arts world and be recorded in history forever!

Battle in the sky, recorded in history forever! The Sword Immortals eyes shone brighter and brighter.

Old brother, you are called a sword immortal and yet you cant fly? As an immortal, how can you not fight in the sky? Lin Beifan smiled insidiously, egging him on.

Right, right, thats too right! The Sword Immortal nodded excitedly.

He couldnt help but daydream. If he could fight in the sky, he would definitely be worthy of his name and become famous throughout the world of martial arts!

Even if he could become a legend and be recorded in history forever!

Damn, its so cool!

The more he thought about it, the more excited he became!

His blood began to boil. He couldnt wait to fight in the sky right now!

Sword Immortal, do you agree or not? If you agree, I will arrange it for you. If you dont, then forget it. Ill give the opportunity to someone else. Dont regret it! Lin Beifan stood up impatiently, seeing that the Sword Immortal had not responded yet.

The Sword Immortal quickly pulled Lin Beifan back down and said in a friendly tone, Hey, dont gobrother, I am considering it, arent I?

Lin Beifan was angry, Youre still considering such an excellent opportunity? It seems like you dont value it. Im leaving!

The Sword Immortal quickly stood up and held Lin Beifan down, Dont go! How can I not want such a great opportunity? Besides, we are good friends. Can I hand over such a rare opportunity to someone else?

Lin Beifan became even angrier, What do you mean by good friends? Do good friends do this kind of thing?

Hehe, its just youthful recklessness! The Sword Immortal poured Lin Beifan a drink and smiled, Come, lets drink. After this glass, our misunderstanding will be cleared up!

After a glass of wine, the two of them were reconciled.

The Sword Immortal excitedly discussed the battle in the sky with Lin Beifan, becoming more and more passionate.

But in the end, the Sword Immortal became somewhat anxious, Brother, can this battle in the sky really happen?

The imperial court should approve it, I have received the favor of the empress. Everyone in the court gives me face. It should be possible! Lin Beifan smiled, The only problem is the Saber Saint. Im afraid he might refuse.

Will he dare to refuse? The Sword Immortal said angrily, If he refuses, Ill fight him until he agrees!

Ok, with you saying that, things have been settled. Wait for my good news! Then, Lin Beifan went to ask the Saber Saint, Ouyang Badao, for his participation.

This guy agreed immediately upon hearing that they would fight in the sky and that there was a chance to become a legend. He seemed even more excited than the Sword Immortal.

Then, Lin Beifan reported the matter to the imperial court.

Using two or three giant air balloons, they could lead the battle outside the city, reducing casualties and losses considerably.

This was also considered saving face for the imperial court. The court quickly approved it.

Sir Lin, you have done well in this matter. You are indeed the pillar of our country! The empress praised, You will have full authority in this matter. The Six Doors, Embroidered Uniform Guard, and Forbidden Army will all be under your command for the time being. After the matter is over, we will reward you for your contribution!

Thank you, Your Majesty! Lin Beifan saluted.

Next, Lin Beifan made a big effort in his promotion. Firstly, he used the power of the imperial court to promote this fight.

The Sword Immortal and the Saber Saint are going to fight in the sky!

I never expected it could be done this way; no martial artist has ever attempted it before!

Other places cant do it, but we can because we have the artifact flying device, the Great Air Balloon! Haha!

A fight in the sky will definitely become the first of its kind, a renowned tale throughout history!

It will definitely be a world-shocking battle!!!

The whole city was buzzing! Even more, it quickly spread outside the city, throughout the country, and to nearby countries. Everyone was eagerly anticipating this otherworldly battle!

To strengthen the promotion, Lin Beifan even wrote a catchy slogan:

Full moon night, height of the sky!

A sword flying from the west, for an otherworldly flight!

The full moon night refers to the time of the martial arts fight!

The height of the sky means up in the air!

A sword flying from the west for an otherworldly flight refers naturally to the Sword Immortal, Shangguan Jianhun, because he calls himself an immortal and hails from the west!

As soon as this slogan came out, it spread like wildfire, and people of all ages knew it!

The name of the Sword Immortal Shangguan Jianhun shook up the world!

The Sword Immortal was ecstatic, feeling his brother-in-arms understood him very well!

He proactively came to visit and drank with Lin Beifan before leaving.

However, the Saber Saint felt unhappy.

Youve talked up the Sword Immortal so high that his name overshadows mine. How can this be?

Drifting through the martial arts world, arent we competing for these little bits of reputation?

As your close friend, you cant favor one and neglect the other!

He also came to Lin Beifans place to pull Lin Beifan to write a slogan. Otherwise, he would stay home and refuse to leave.

Lin Beifan asked, Whats your sabers name?

The Saber Saint proudly said, Dragon-Slaying Saber!

Lin Beifan smiled, Okay, the Sword Immortals sword is aptly named The Heaven Reliant!

Then, a magnificent slogan emerged:

The greatest of the martial arts, the Dragon-Slaying Saber!

The Heaven Reliant is absent, who can fight for the victory?

The Dragon-Slaying Saber naturally refers to the Saber Saint!

As they are the greatest in martial arts, who can deny their power?

The Heaven Reliant refers to the Sword Immortal, meaning that only the Sword Immortal can compete with him!

So, they were placed on the same level!

The Sword Saint left satisfied!

This slogan quickly spread throughout the country, and the name of the Sword Saint Ouyang Badao became known all over the world!

As a result, the two great warriors were set on the same level, and anticipation for their fight reached its peak!

The Sword Immortal and the Saber Saints fight in the sky is the best time for the martial arts world!

I must go and see it! If I dont, it will be regretful for the rest of my life!

Im coming to the capital city of Great Wu!

The martial artists of the Great Wu Empire all rushed towards the capital city!

Even martial artists from other countries, after hearing about it, traveled far to see the fight!

However, when they arrived, they were stunned.

Because there were one hundred thousand troops guarding the place, and all the strongest martial artists were there to prohibit anyone from entering.

This is a martial arts gathering! Why cant we watch?

I came from so far away just to see this world-shocking battle! Why are you stopping me from watching it?

Your court is too overbearing! Dont force me to take action!

We protest, we protest!

Everyone was extremely angry.

At this moment, Lin Beifan came out with a smile, carrying a sign: If you want to watch, pay up! Ordinary people, 1000 taels per person! Late-stage experts, 3000 taels per person! Peak-stage experts, 10,000 taels per person! No bargaining allowed!

Everyone became furious when they saw this: Why should we pay?

Lin Beifan confidently replied, Why shouldnt we charge? This aerial battle is arranged by our Great Wu Dynasty. Do you know how much manpower and resources we have expended to prepare for this battle? These funds come from the treasury, from the common people! If we dont recoup our expenses, not only will the court not agree, but the common people wont agree either!

They were speechless.

But 1000 taels per person is too expensive! someone said.

Is 1000 taels too expensive? Some of you spend more than that when visiting brothels! Remember, there are plenty of prostitutes, but a world-shaking battle is once in a lifetime! Im even offering you a discount with this 1000 taels! Lin Beifan waved his sleeve. If you cant pay, then get lost! Poor people are not welcome here!

What the hell!

What the hell!

Countless people were so enraged that they wanted to draw their swords and kill this bastard!

At this moment, a powerful old man stepped forward, pointing angrily at the fee sign: Charging a fee is one thing, but why is it more expensive for peak-stage experts? Isnt it the stronger the strength, the more respect they receive?

Lin Beifan nodded. Exactly! I am showing you respect, arent I? If your entrance fee is the same as everyone elses, then your value will diminish, wont it? Im considering your best interest with this strategy!

What the hell!

What the hell!

Countless experts were so angry that they wanted to kill someone!

At this moment, someone shouted, Lets ignore him and charge in together! I dont believe that with their officials and soldiers, they can stop so many heroes!

For a moment, the crowd responded.

Yes! Charge in!

How many corrupt officials have I killed? I can kill a few more!

I dont believe he can stop us!

Charge!

The 100,000-strong army raised their weapons and armor, ready for battle.

The experts from the Six Doors, the Embroidered Uniform Guards, and the Forbidden Army all unsheathed their swords, emanating powerful energy.

The great battle was about to begin!

Then, at that moment, a very ordinary old monk walked over.

He stood in the middle of the court and the martial arts world, blocking Lin Beifan, facing the crowd.

With hands clasped together, he bowed slightly. Namo Amitabha! Respectable benefactors, may I offer my greetings! Its not good to brandish blades and spears! You must know

The old monk opened his eyes, releasing a terrifying aura that overwhelmed the entire venue.

Put down your butcher knives and become a Buddha!

The sea of suffering knows no bounds; turn back and seek the shore!

Namo Amitabha!

All the martial artists were pressed back several steps, gasping for breath, unable to exert more than 60-70% of their true strength.

Their eyes widened, and they blurted out, Grandmaster!!!
