NOVPUBMeanwhile, Xia Yanlong and his group had also arrived. They saw Su Changkong and those Monster Warriors enveloped in monster clouds.
The two sides once again entered into a standoff.
Su Changkong scanned the area, his brows slightly furrowed, "Is Qin Miesheng not among you?"
Su Changkong did not see Qin Miesheng among them.
At his side, Duanmu Tao transmitted, "Brother Blade...before you arrived, the Great Flame Cave Sky was attacked; it might have been Qin Miesheng’s doing."
Shock also filled Su Changkong’s heart. The Xia family’s Cave Heaven and Blessed Land had been attacked?
"Dao Wufeng, we didn’t come looking for you, yet you’ve delivered yourself to our doorstep. Are you seeking death?"
The burly, giant-sword-wielding man licked his lips, his green eyes full of cruelty.
Qin Miesheng and Su Changkong’s grudge ran deep. Had Su Changkong not previously attacked the Life Extinguishing Association, defeated Pang Shengwu, and abducted him, Qin Miesheng would not have needed to go to such lengths, and he had also tried several times to kill Su Changkong. The two were long-standing mortal enemies!
Concerned that unforeseen changes might occur, Qin Miesheng had decided to first capture Hong Zhenxiang and was planning to deal with Su Changkong afterwards, but Su Changkong took the initiative to get involved!
"Quick, finish them off,"
Su Changkong silently said.
"Dao Wufeng! I’ve heard that you are invincible below Martial Saint, the strongest Innate of this era, my name is Wu Shenyong! In my era, I also swept through adversaries, today I will see what you’re capable of!"
The burly man let out a fierce yell, now that he encountered Su Changkong, he would settle it!
"Don’t underestimate him, Dao Wufeng might have already attained the Saint level as well,"
the gaunt man, Dan Kang, transmitted to the burly man, Su Changkong’s Turtle Breath Technique reached level 12, concealing his aura so even he couldn’t see his complete depth, but he knew Dao Wufeng must have boldly pursued them because he likely had already taken that step.
"Just attained Saint...I do not take it seriously," the burly man replied. He licked his lips, his face filled with murderous intent, killing Su Changkong would surely please Qin Miesheng and earn him more rewards!
"Be careful...he is very strong..."
Duanmu Tao also hastily warned Su Changkong, as he had previously faced this burly man and was unilaterally suppressed by him, indicating the burly man’s strength was definitely at the Saint level! 𝙣𝙤𝒗𝙥𝒖𝒃.𝒄𝒐𝒎
"Elder Blade has entered the Saint level? Before he entered, he was already unrivaled below Martial Saint. Now that he has entered... How would he fare against this Saint-level Monster Warrior?"
Xia Yanlong couldn’t help but anticipate seeing Su Changkong, recently the most monstrous figure to emerge in the Great Flame Empire, take action.
Su Changkong stood in the void, the phantom of the white crane beneath his feet dissipated, and he quietly watched the burly man. He remained silent as if looking at a dead man, with a dismissive attitude as if he didn’t regard him at all.
"Seeking death!"
The murderous intent of the burly man instantly soared to its peak. In his own era, he had also been unrestrained, how could he tolerate such disdain?
"Roar!"
With a thunderous roar, the burly man emitted violent Monster Qi all around him, causing the mountains beneath to tremble. His muscles bulged as if about to burst his robes, and thick monster clouds covered the sky as if a demon king had descended.
"Split Mountain and Break Peak!"
The burly man stomped in the void, rushing ferociously towards Su Changkong. He pulled out the giant sword from behind his back, both hands grasping it, he made an overhead chopping cut.
This cut seemed simple and unadorned, but it was the epitome of profound simplicity returning to the original state, capable of splitting a hundred thousand-foot mountain in two, capable of cutting a deep abyss into the limitless earth!
Before the giant sword could even fall, the void had already dented and warped, a heavy pressure bearing down on Su Changkong.
Facing the incoming giant sword, Su Changkong placed his hand on the hilt at his waist. Inside his Dantian, the Mysterious Tortoise Golden Core slightly rotated, instantly transferring a robust Golden Core energy which adhered to the blade.
"Buzz, buzz, buzz!"
The Iron-Cutting Sword excitedly screeched, eager to chop down a Saint-level Monster Warrior.
Iron Cutting Blade Technique. Upward Slash!
Su Changkong held the scabbard with his left hand and suddenly drew the sword, a simple upward slash, yet utterly captivating.
"Buzz!"
Amidst the buzzing sound, a silvery, chillingly bright blade light flickered, turning the sky into day, tearing apart the dense, unbreakable Monster Qi, like a silver dragon rising to the heavens.
"What?"
The burly man’s face changed.
"Crack!"
With one blade above and one below, they collided without any fancy tricks, accompanied by a high-pitched metallic clanging. Under the incredulous gaze of the burly man, his giant sword emitted a groan as if too much to bear. In the instant of collision, it was completely shattered by that indestructible blade.
"No... no good!"
The burly man realized the danger, tried to withdraw quickly, but it was already too late. The Iron-Cutting Sword had smashed his giant sword, moving across his abdomen up to his brow, the chilling blade light unrelentingly shooting into the sky!
Chil-la!
The cloudy night sky was torn open by a huge gap, revealing the pitch-black cloudless night.
The burly man’s lips twitched, straining to speak, "You... You just entered Saint level? How could you be...stronger than me?"
The burly man struggled to accept it. Just one strike, and he was defeated? Wasn’t Su Changkong supposed to have just reached the Saint level within the last year? How could he be this powerful?
Could it be that his opponent had been a Martial Saint all along, merely concealing his power!
