Chapter 552: Death of the Sword Saint
Jian Chen believed in Long Chen even though he didn’t know what the plan was.
“I can make sure he stops moving for two breaths.” Jian Chen disappeared once more and he charged towards the Void Sword Saint after he said that.
Long Chen followed him quickly and secretly used the Dragon Soul Transformation to assume his strongest form.
“Old man, I know my mastery over the Illusory Sword Technique is at least equal to yours.” Jian Chen was certain that the only advantage the Void Sword Saint had over them was the difference in their cultivation levels. They were equal in strength in terms of the Illusory Sword Technique.
Jian Chen’s words caught the Void Sword Saint’s attention. “Is that so? Then let’s try again.”
The Cloud Sword and the Jade Sword clashed once more. The two of them appeared to be glued together as they attacked.
“Binding Words?” The Void Sword Saint laughed. “You dare use it against me? Don’t you know that I’m better at it?”
The Cloud Sword was the one binding the Jade Sword until now, but the situation had completely reversed. The two of them were stuck together like glue.
Now! Long Chen knew this was his chance. He quickly ran to the side and slightly caught the attention of the Void Sword Saint. Still, the latter hadn’t paid attention to any cultivators at the Ninth Passage Stage for years.Just then, the strength of the Binding Words increased. Jian Chen twisted his sword, and a hurricane engulfed the Void Sword Saint.
“You dare use your strongest attack on me? Hahaha!” The Void Sword Saint twisted his sword too, and a larger hurricane engulfed Jian Chen.
“Illusory World Massacre.”
Long Chen knew that while it looked simple, the strength of the techniques was enormous. If he faced them head-on, he would be shattered to pieces.
But there was no need for him to get close.
At the last moment, he activated his technique.
“Blood Devouring Domain!” His Qi expanded and unleashed a torrent of energy similar to a cultivator at the First Earthly Martial Stage. It formed a blood-red space that engulfed the Void Sword Saint. Its powers were exerted only on the Void Sword Saint while ignoring Jian Chen.
The Blood Devouring Domain still worked on the Void Sword Saint, especially when it appeared so suddenly. The Void Sword Saint was stunned and had no choice to use some of his Qi to suppress his blood. That caused his final attack to become weaker.
Jian Chen barely managed to deflect that attack.
“Xiaolang!” While Jian Chen and the Void Sword Saint were stuck together, Long Chen got close and shouted for Xiaolang. The black wolf leaped out of the Primordial Realm and released a wave of burning flames towards the Void Sword Saint.
The cold flames made the Void Sword Saint shiver in fear.
Run. That was the only thought in his mind. He now realized that Jian Chen was only a distraction. Their real killing technique was the attack from the wolf!
Even though it was not befitting of him to escape, his life was more precious than anything.
He wanted to run, but Jian Chen suddenly changed his sword stance and used Binding Words again. His Jade Sword was glued to the Cloud Sword!
If he wanted to run, he would have to let go of the Jade Sword since breaking the Binding Words would cost him the time of a single breath. By then, the flames would hit him.
Shit. Why should I be scared? I have a King-tier Body Tempering technique. I don’t have to fear some random flame. The Void Sword Saint broke open the Binding Words with his sword. Since he had wasted so much time, his only choice was to use the Jade Sword to defend himself from the Nine Devils Ancestral Fire.
“Jade Windfall.”
The technique released a massive wheel of wind. The flickering sword hidden inside the wind blocked the Nine Devils Ancestral Fire. Soon, the Void Sword Saint would be able to escape.
Hmph! Two amateurs. The Void Sword Saint was about to back away when he felt a sense of danger from his back. He turned around and saw a massive sword array falling on him.
“What is that!?” the Void Sword Saint shouted. To his knowledge, only those at the Earthly Martial Realm could unleash an array of that size, but the Qi coming from it didn’t belong to an Earthly Martial Realm cultivator.
The Void Sword Saint could only block one of the attacks. He had a strange feeling that he would be injured no matter which one he chose.
He never thought he would be forced into a corner like this.
You are smart. But once I endure it, I will make sure you suffer. The Void Sword Saint howled in rage.
He remembered Long Chen. He had ignored him, but now he knew that Long Chen was more dangerous.
The Heaven Sword Array and the fire—he had to endure one of them. The fire was the better option. He was wary of it, but it probably wouldn’t harm him; the array looked more dangerous. Though it wasn’t powerful enough to kill him, it would leave a lot of injuries, and he wouldn’t like that.
“Die!” The Void Sword Saint swung his sword, and a hurricane dispersed the Heaven Sword Array with ease. Even the person behind the Heaven Sword Array disintegrated.
Did I kill him? The Void Sword Saint was confused. He thought the person behind the array would be severely injured at most. He was trying to destroy the array, not Long Chen.
But by the time he realized what had happened, it was too late.
“Demonic Illusion.” The Heaven Sword Array had been used by the Demonic Illusion! He turned around and was engulfed by the Nine Devils Ancestral Fire. The Void Sword Saint was on fire.
“AAH!” A painful scream came from beneath the flames. The Void Sword Saint’s arms flailed around as he rolled on the ground furiously. He used his Qi to form a barrier to protect himself from the flames, but some parts of the barrier failed to protect him properly.
Even so, the Nine Devils Ancestral Fire would not be able to defeat the Void Sword Saint.
Xiaolang could only control a small part of it for now.
But Long Chen was ready.
The moment the Void Sword Saint was engulfed by the Nine Devils Ancestral Fire, Long Chen used the Heaven Sword Array with the strength of the Golden Crow soul remnants. The attack landed on the Void Sword Saint without any difficulty. The burning flames from the Golden Crow soul remnant and the freezing flames of the Nine Devils ANcestral Fire caused the Void Sword Saint’s body to crumble when he was hit by the Heaven Sword Array.
Long Chen used the Heaven Sword Array to tear open the Void Sword Saint’s body, allowing the Nine Devils Ancestral Fire to spread to his insides. The Void Sword Saint howled in pain and stopped completely after three breaths. All that was left of him was a black statue made of ice.
They had won.
Jian Chen paused in shock and stared at the corpse. Everything had happened too quickly.
Jian Chen never thought they would win; he had thought that he and Long Chen would die here today, and Lan Ling’er would be humiliated, but the Void Sword Saint was dead.
He looked at Long Chen in a daze. He knew that all he had done was hold the Void Sword Saint down—Long Chen was the one who had delivered the killing blow.
Everything was within his control.
The Binding Words, the Blood Devouring Domain, the Nine Devils Ancestral Fire, the Demonic Illusion, and the Heaven Sword Array. All these techniques had been used in quick succession, and the Void Sword Saint fell to the Heaven Sword Array even though he had withstood the attack from the Demonic Illusion.
One of the ten strongest people in the Martial Alliance was now a block of ice. All of that had happened because of Long Chen.
Jian Chen couldn’t breathe.
He realized that Long Chen was much scarier than Long Yue. At the very least, Long Yue’s strength was within his expectations, but Long Chen was perfect even though his cultivation level was lower.
Not only was Jian Chen shocked, the spectators on the wall were shocked too. They knew how strong the Void Sword Saint was.
There was One Martial Overlord, Three Martial Emperors, and Ten Martial Saints. The Void Sword Saint was one of the Ten Martial Saints.
And he had died to some random person.
All of them focused on Long Chen.
Who is the youth beside Jian Chen?
Now only the Flower Martial King was left.
She had been taking it easy because she knew she only needed to distract Lan Ling’er until the Void Sword Saint dealt with the rest.
But now the Void Sword Saint was dead.
