Chapter 813: Chapter 636: You Can’t Stop Me
Even though Long Yi did not communicate with Ai Lin during the battle, Ai Lin had already understood that the so-called power of destruction was essentially just the use of Fighting Aura and Mana. Such a clever method of execution surprised Ai Lin, so she was currently busy calculating in her heart how to generate such a stable energy operation, and she had no time to care about these people.
The battle involving Long Yi was raging intensely. The attacks from the Sword of Destruction were fierce, and the Giant Sword wielded in his hands was surprisingly agile. The other fighters around him continued to aggressively attack Long Yi, creating countless opportunities for the Sword of Destruction.
But seeing an opportunity is one thing, and being able to seize it is another matter entirely.
In just two short minutes, the Sword of Destruction had struck over a dozen times, but all were dodged by Long Yi. As there were others around Long Yi, the Sword of Destruction did not resort to any area-of-effect attacks but simply chopped with the Greatsword in his hand. Though fast, Long Yi was faster! The dozen unsuccessful attempts made the Sword of Destruction a bit impatient, as in terms of skill alone, Long Yi was far superior to him. Moreover, it seemed that in terms of combat experience, Long Yi was no worse, maintaining an impeccable defense even amidst the onslaught of so many people. Not only that, many fighters were injured!
Suddenly!
A scream, followed by a head flying into the sky.
With so many people attacking together, and even with a renowned Sword of Destruction, they still allowed Long Yi to counter-kill one! The hell are you guys doing? If I could use some of my abilities! Long Yi would have been finished a long time ago!
The Sword of Destruction was anxious, and his strikes began to get heavier.
In the midst of slashing with the Greatsword, he accidentally caught a fighter, who almost instantly shattered without any defense.
Although it was unintentional, this careless mistake immediately dissolved the barely functional group that could coordinate in combat. Almost every fighter began to distance themselves from the Sword of Destruction. After all, was it not more tragic to die by the hands of their own than by Long Yi?
The newly formed alliance disintegrated in an instant, but the Sword of Destruction laughed out loud.
"Fools! Since you chose to stand by me, prepare to die!"
After speaking, his entire body’s energy surged, and the Giant Sword swung through the air, sending another Destruction Ripple sweeping across. The few fighters who were closest failed to dodge and immediately shattered. The ripple continued unabated, heading straight for Long Yi.
It turned out that it did not stop after hitting the first target.
All of the Sword of Destruction’s actions were within Long Yi’s expectations. Long Yi deliberately avoided taking the opponent’s attacks head-on, not because he didn’t dare, but because he wanted to force the opponent into making rash moves. A rash move, naturally, meant turning against his own teammates. He had figured that a person using such a weapon and technique must be very irritable, and indeed that was the case.
Now, as expected, all the fighters had retreated far away, leaving only Long Yi and the Sword of Destruction in the center of the battlefield.
"Come on! Fight me!"
The Sword of Destruction roared loudly, and another ripple of energy was chopped out.
"This time, let’s take it on!"
Long Yi whispered to Lingling.
Long Yi could never treat Lingling purely as a weapon because it felt just like holding a girl’s hand in battle.
The Greatsword form of Lingling did not respond but shone even more brilliantly!
The Greatsword collided with the ripple. A clang rang out and crystal shards flew. The ripple vanished, and a moderately sized notch had been chipped into the crystal in Long Yi’s hand.
However, almost simultaneously, the scattered crystal shards flew back, resealing the gash completely!
Long Yi smiled.
Indeed, after leaving the Human Realm, Lingling’s rightful strength began to emerge.
The body of Lingling was originally that of the Crystal Demon Princess Belle, before it absorbed a huge Crazy Demon. It should possess extremely terrifying power. In the Human Realm, the Giants’ seal forced her to be suppressed below the ten Dragon Marks, but now, without any restraints, Lingling was naturally stronger!
The Sword of Destruction was about to cheer, but then he saw that the crystal Greatsword in Long Yi’s hand instantly repaired itself, and his good mood disappeared.
"So that’s how it is."
Through the sensation from the crystal Greatsword, Long Yi gained a slight understanding of the so-called power of destruction.
"So that’s how it is, my ass! Shatter for me!"
The Sword of Destruction roared and charged forward.
"Dream on!"
Long Yi also roared. The crystal Greatsword in his hand instantly expanded to match the size of the Giant Sword in the hands of the Sword of Destruction!
The two massive swords, like huge door panels, collided, creating a dull sound. Long Yi’s crystal Greatsword immediately chipped, and the force of destruction continued to erode the crystal Greatsword, causing more crystal shards to continuously break away!
And Long Yi continuously learned the secrets of the so-called destructive power.
Boom!
The crystal Greatsword in Long Yi’s hand completely shattered, bursting into countless tiny sparkles.
And Long Yi was left holding only a hilt, quickly retreating backward.
"Hahaha! Come on! Keep it up! Come and clash with me!"
The Sword of Destruction yelled, excited to the extreme at having forced Long Yi back!
"Since you insist."
Long Yi chuckled, raising the hilt high, and the surrounding crystal shards whooshed back into his hand like a storm. This time, Lingling transformed into a war hammer!
"You’re finished."
Ai Lin said with a smile.
"How did he win?"
First Prince Saint Cassio hurriedly asked.
"Because the secret of that destructive power was already known by Long Yi."
What!
The three Crown Princes did not believe it, they simply couldn’t. This so-called power of destruction was something that many people coveted, with some offering high prices to buy it, but the Sword of Destruction was never for sale. And now, Long Yi knew about it? Was it just because of one exchange of blows?
"Hahaha! A hammer? You think you’re Brick? Even Brick was once defeated by my hand! And you think you can?" The Sword of Destruction laughed out loud.
Long Yi didn’t say a word, and simply made a beckoning gesture, performing a taunt. The Sword of Destruction immediately became furious.
"Fine! You want to die? I’ll grant you that!"
The Greatsword and the Giant Hammer collided mid-air, and after the dull vibration, the Sword of Destruction was shocked to find that Long Yi’s hammer suffered no damage at all!
Almost everyone in the crowd was staring at the crystal war hammer in Long Yi’s hand, surprised that it had no damage after a strike!
"Come on, I want to die, hurry up and oblige me."
Long Yi mocked.
"Die!"
The Sword of Destruction roared, its power operating at its peak, and the huge broken sword was chopped down towards Long Yi. Long Yi still countered with the war hammer, another dull boom ensuing, each weapon blasting away from the other, yet nothing at all happened!
Long Yi cracked a smile: "So much for the so-called Sword of Destruction."
Hearing someone question himself, the Sword of Destruction was close to going mad from anger. Ever since he obtained this greatsword with the power of destruction, no one had dared to question him!
But why! Why was the power of destruction ineffective this time?
I don’t believe it!
The Sword of Destruction roared furiously, and a mighty ripple was chopped out. Long Yi sneered at the same time, as the war hammer suddenly transformed into a greatsword, and a similar ripple was also chopped out!
Boom!
The two ripples collided and twisted into each other, disappearing together!
The Sword of Destruction was truly dumbfounded this time.
"You! You also have it! The power of destruction!"
The Sword of Destruction pointed at Long Yi.
"What power of destruction! Ignorance is really scary!" Long Yi shook his head, as his crystal greatsword continuously slashed out ripples of destruction. At first, the Sword of Destruction could still chop out ripples to barely block, but later he could only hide behind the huge sword body because he simply had no strength left to use the Destruction Ripple!
Long Yi stepped closer to the Sword of Destruction, as the ripples bombarded the sword body, leaving one mark after another, and finally, with a crisp sound, the huge sword body was actually horizontally cut off by the ripples! And after cutting through the greatsword, the ripple did not disappear, but instead directly shattered the Sword of Destruction hiding behind it.
Thus, the warrior with the domineering name of Sword of Destruction never got to face Long Yi before his death!
Seeing the Sword of Destruction killed, all the warriors present lost their will to fight. In this match, only one person could survive, and since the Sword of Destruction was dead, they weren’t Long Yi’s match at all. Long Yi was already difficult to deal with, and now he had learnt the Destruction Ripple of the Sword of Destruction; who else could possibly be his opponent!
As the crowd lost their will to fight, Long Yi sheathed his crystal greatsword.
"According to the rules, I should have killed them all to achieve victory," Long Yi began, almost everyone was quietly listening, wanting to know what exactly Long Yi would say.
"However, why should I follow rules set by others? They have lost their will to fight; they don’t even deserve to be killed by my hand. Even if they were still alive, does anyone dare to question that I am the victor?"
Long Yi spoke with overwhelming confidence, and indeed, the truth was as he said. He just stood there, and although the survivors around him heard Long Yi’s words, not a single one dared to question him. Everyone who came to participate in the prison battle knew there was a high chance they wouldn’t make it out alive; they were here for the generous rewards—dead or alive.
But even with that sliver of hope, how many truly felt they had lived enough?
The surrounding warriors lowered their heads, not daring to look at Long Yi. And of course, Long Yi didn’t look at them either; he was always uninterested in the weak.
However, up in the stands, Ai Lin suddenly frowned slightly.
"Interesting, it turns out that guy is much stronger than I thought," Ai Lin said, pointing at someone.
The three Crown Princes followed Ai Lin’s fingertip, looking at a not-so-tall warrior among the crowd of those who had lost their spirit, who was rapidly waving his hands under the cover from those in front of him.
Long Yi couldn’t see because he was blocked by the crowd.
But Ai Lin, from her high vantage point, could see clearly.
First Prince immediately manipulated the array in the VIP box, giving that warrior a close-up.
Though the three Crown Princes had different temperaments, being bona fide members of the royal family, they had received countless lessons from a young age, and they could easily tell. The warrior’s eyes showed no signs of defeat or depression; on the contrary, there was a slight hint of excitement! His hands were moving continuously, and magic was being combined incessantly, gradually condensing a dim sphere of energy in the palm of his hands!
"An interesting fellow, even more cunning than I thought," Ai Lin commented. (To be continued.
