Chapter 2037: Chapter 2042: Annihilation [Sixth Update]
However, everyone was greatly shocked by this move of Xia Liu.
It was capable of weakening the terrifying strike of a Nascent Soul Stage Cultivator.
That strike could potentially shatter a Golden Core Late Stage Cultivator, leaving not even the Golden Core intact!
Facing the sudden mighty strength, Xia Liu’s sword might swept through, entering a vast emptiness.
It conveyed a sense of ease.
"Impressive! His strength cannot be underestimated!"
Even though it took two moves to dissolve Zhuang Fei’s palm strength,
It was enough to demonstrate Xia Liu’s strength.
Qinghong couldn’t compare by far!
"His terrifying aspect just revealed itself,"
Qingcheng murmured.
"Very well! In this case, I’m not worried that your body will easily be shattered!"
Seeing Xia Liu could resist his palm strength,
Zhuang Fei smiled.
"Is that so? You should worry about yourself and hope your Nascent Soul can escape,"
Xia Liu slightly raised the corner of his mouth.
A force of extreme heat and cold burst from his body.
Within ten miles, all cultivators felt a shiver!
Beads of sweat continuously erupted from their pores.
The initial appearance of Dual Polar Force made Zhuang Fei sense unease!
A Golden Core Late Stage Cultivator could make a Nascent Soul Stage Cultivator perceive danger.
Xia Liu is extraordinary!
Without further words, Zhuang Fei immediately deployed a shield,
Attempting to block the impact of the Dual Polar Force on himself.
But he still felt the cold and the heat.
"This move, I have never used before, today I will use your blood to consecrate my peerless sword might!"
With the words said, Xia Liu shouted sharply.
"Flowing Fire Burns The Firmament!"
The ultimate sword technique divine power of the Flowing Fire Sword!
After Xia Liu’s Core Formation, this sword technique divine power suddenly appeared in his mind.
Much like the Flowing Fire Transformation.
But its might surpassed that of the Flowing Fire Transformation!
Xia Liu estimated, Flowing Fire Burns The Firmament might have reached the realm of sword technique divine power.
How strong it was, he didn’t know, and today he aimed to test it with Zhuang Fei!
The Fire Origin within Xia Liu’s body erupted wildly.
Radiant Fire Energy continuously infused into the Flowing Fire Sword.
Karmic Fire, Heavenly Gang Holy Fire, Extreme Cold Flame.
The three types of Fire Energy merged to form a new flame.
Xia Liu didn’t know what to call it.
It resided entirely within the Flowing Fire Sword, exhibiting a peerless sword might!
As sword qi and the aura of flames spread through Heaven and Earth,
An ominous feeling rose in Zhuang Fei’s heart.
This was a sign of a crisis about to erupt!
Without hesitation, Zhuang Fei immediately took out the Supreme Grade Dharma Artifact bestowed by the Zhuang Family, the Hook Dragon Blade!
Legend has it that it was obtained by an ancestor of the Zhuang Family during the Holy War of Demon Extermination.
It was famed for the legendary feats of slaying a True Dragon and True Phoenix.
Later, the Hook Dragon Blade’s power weakened, and it fell from the divine pedestal, becoming a Supreme Grade Dharma Artifact.
As for whether the legend was true, Zhuang Fei had no time to care.
He only wished to use such an artifact to resist Xia Liu’s sword might!
"Go!"
Xia Liu shouted sharply, and the Flowing Fire Sword sliced through the air from a distance.
Whoosh whoosh whoosh!!!
Flames roared, and sword might resonated.
In an instant, the surroundings became a scorched wasteland.
The three fires gathered, merging into an unsurpassed sword technique divine power.
The blazing sword qi, like an ancient ferocious beast, filled the void with murderous intent.
Like an enraged Flood Dragon, shaking the Four Seas!
Though the myriad flames were unseen, the ferocity within the void could be sensed.
The sonic booms were inaudible because the sense of hearing had been numbed.
In front of him, serene yet harboring crisis,
Zhuang Fei sensed the time had come, decisively wielding the Hook Dragon Blade.
"Destroying Divine Dragon, Slay True Phoenix, the only one in the world, slay the divine spirit!"
Rumble!!!
The power of the Supreme Grade Dharma Artifact exploded violently.
Waves of ripples continuously spread before Zhuang Fei.
Everywhere they reached, causing the Heavenly Fire to surge from the void, shattering Exotic Fire into a void.
But, to Zhuang Fei’s widening eyes,
The might of the Hook Dragon Blade was frozen invisibly!
It turned into a living ice sculpture!
Then, under the assault of flames, the ice turned into water, flooding ten miles!
"Damn it! What kind of flame is this!"
While frantically waving the Hook Dragon Blade, Zhuang Fei’s face twisted in anger.
Utterly unimaginable.
There existed a flame in the world that caused even a Nascent Soul Stage to shiver!
Crucially, this flame and sword might were executed by a Golden Core Late Stage Cultivator!
Xia Liu did not respond, his hands forming a condensing gesture, the might of the Flowing Fire Sword demolishing mountains and forests, shaking a Nascent Soul Early-Stage expert!
"Humph! Do not underestimate a Nascent Soul expert!"
Realizing that his spiritual power couldn’t completely block the flame sword might, Zhuang Fei coldly snorted.
With one hand, he formed a seal, mobilizing the Power of Nascent Soul!
As the Primordial Force spread,
The sword might was directly broken.
It turned into light points, vanishing between Heaven and Earth.
The sword might was nearly depleted.
Seeing this, Xia Liu’s brows relaxed: "I’ve been waiting for this moment!"
Inserting the Flowing Fire Sword before him, Xia Liu gestured with his hand.
The sword bag he carried lightly opened, and the Taiqing Sword blasted out.
A seal form rose and fell, deep within the unreadable Sea of Consciousness, the Five Elements Wheel flashed into existence.
Five colored slots surged madly, the Five Elements Origin Force endlessly flowed.
Directly pouring into the Taiqing Sword through the meridians.
"Taiqing Selfless Slash!"
The peerless sword technique divine power emerged once more.
Xia Liu ascended above the Nine Heavens and Cloudsky.
With a single slash, the Selfless Sword Energy burst forth instantly.
Empowered by the Five Elements Origin, the Selfless Sword Energy reached its peak!
Buzz!!!
Upon discovering the sword qi beyond the clouds,
Zhuang Fei’s eyes widened in anger.
He was locked on; unable to retreat in time, he could only use the Hook Dragon Blade in conjunction with his foundations to defend.
Crack!
The Selfless Sword Energy struck down in an instant.
With a crisp sound, ten miles around fell silent.
As if time had stopped.
Heaven and Earth ceased to turn.
Amid Heaven and Earth, only a descending figure could be seen.
"Sect Master Zhuang!"
Seeing Zhuang Fei no longer move, Zhuang Bifan screamed hysterically.
Attempting to awaken the dormant soul consciousness, awaken the Nascent Soul Stage expert!
Clang clang!
As Zhuang Bifan’s voice fell,
The previously raised Hook Dragon Blade shattered and fell onto the stone slabs.
The sound heavily struck the Daoist heart and soul of the surrounding cultivators.
Bang.
Unexpectedly, someone beyond anticipation collapsed.
"How could this be!"
For the first time, the noble and well-mannered Qingcheng revealed a shocked expression.
She couldn’t believe her eyes.
Nor did she want to believe her soul consciousness.
Nascent Soul Early-Stage Cultivator Zhuang Fei was actually slain by Golden Core Late Stage Xia Liu!
Upon closely probing with divine sense, a sword qi that penetrated through Zhuang Fei’s body could be discovered.
From the top of his head to his feet!
He was directly cleaved by sword qi!
Even his Nascent Soul within had no time to escape!
It was terrifyingly shocking!
How could such a thing occur in this world!
Aside from Qingcheng’s disbelief,
All the cultivators present were incredulous.
They all opened their mouths wide, their jaws nearly dropping to the ground!
Their eyes were bulging wider than ox eyes.
Today was undoubtedly the most bizarre day they’ve experienced!
They might never forget it in this lifetime.
Returning the Flowing Fire Sword to his storage ring, Xia Liu took a deep breath.
If Zhuang Fei hadn’t used his Primordial Energy to resist the might of the Flowing Fire Sword,
He might have been able to escape with his Power of Nascent Soul the instant the Selfless Sword Energy pierced his body.
This was what Li Yun told him.
To prevent the Nascent Soul from becoming autonomous, it was essential to make the Nascent Soul Cultivator employ Primordial Energy.
Xia Liu treaded lightly and slowly towards Zhuang Bifan.
"Zhuang Bifan, when I first saw you in the Extreme Cold Secret Realm, I spared you a chance at life, hoping you’d cherish your life and reflect, to cherish life well, but why do you not repent, insisting on forcing me to act?"
