Boom!
At that moment, an aura like a flood breaking through a dam erupted from the blood-soaked Sword Invincible, sweeping in all directions.
Sword Invincible’s body emitted a dark light, his entire form resembling a black sword. He stood in the void, like a demonic blade suspended in the air, ready to slay anyone in its sights.
Immediately after, torrential black energy burst from Sword Invincible, surging fiercely across the heavens and earth.
The entire sky dimmed, an overwhelming and terrifying pressure spreading outward.
In an instant, Sword Invincible seemed to transform into a demon from the depths of hell, his sinister aura surging, his body brimming with such terrifying power that the void itself trembled, faintly emitting eerie, quivering sounds.
Everyone far below felt the chilling, soul-shaking aura and the boundless, terrifying pressure. Countless people trembled, overwhelmed by the urge to cower.
The might Sword Invincible unleashed was simply too terrifying!
Even warriors of weaker cultivation were shaken, but even powerhouses at the Ninth Martial Lord realm felt a sense of dread, admitting they were no match for this force.
At that moment, the Spear Dragon Sect members, who had thought Sword Invincible was defeated, stood dumbfounded.
Despite such severe injuries, Sword Invincible could still fight.
Moreover, the power he unleashed was far stronger than any of his previous attacks.
When he defeated Battle Storm, Sword Invincible had not lied. He truly had a more powerful talent yet to be revealed.
This talent was a demonic attribute, seemingly an extraordinarily terrifying demonic physique.
Purple Spirit, Ling Tiger, and others were filled with worry.
Meanwhile, the Ling Sword Sect members were overjoyed. Sword Invincible had not been defeated, and the physique he unleashed was far more powerful than before.
Lin Xiao had already used his strongest attack, so now, it was Lin Xiao who was in danger.
As long as Lin Xiao died, no matter how monstrous his talent or how strong his cross-tier combat ability, it would all turn to dust.
“Hahaha, Sword Invincible hasn’t lost, Sword Invincible hasn’t lost!” Cao Tianchao and others were instantly thrilled, their excitement beyond imagination.
This time, they finally had hope of seeing Lin Xiao killed.
Yang Lan, Duan Tianya, and others, who had been in despair, now felt hope rekindled, their bodies trembling with excitement.
“Clang!”
Sword Invincible raised his long sword horizontally, blocking a thread-like beam of light. A sharp, metallic sound rang out, and the beam, capable of piercing anything, was effortlessly stopped.
Rolling black energy emanated from the sword.
Lin Xiao’s expression changed drastically. Sword Invincible still had the strength to fight.
Moreover, his combat power had surged.
“Lin Xiao, you forced me to this!”
At that moment, Sword Invincible’s hair danced wildly, black energy surging like a tide. His cold eyes locked onto Lin Xiao, who had halted his charge, as overwhelming killing intent radiated from him.
Unmatched power surged within his body.
As if containing too much power, Sword Invincible’s body trembled faintly.
The void itself seemed unable to contain him, trembling indied.
Instantly, Sword Invincible swept up torrents of black energy and charged at Lin Xiao with lightning speed, reaching a distance of just over ten miles in moments.
“Bury my brother, Demonic Sword Body, kill!”
As he charged, an icy shout rang out. Sword Invincible slashed with his sword.
The void shook, and terrifying power erupted, forming a massive black sword beam, radiating immense fluctuations and eerie, howling sounds, slashing toward Lin Xiao.
“Nine Nether Demon Body!”
Sensing Sword Invincible’s terror, Lin Xiao activated the Nine Nether Demon Body technique. Torrential demonic power surged through his entire body.
His skin began to darken.
At the same time, the Heavenly Demon Palm technique, inherited at the Grand Viewing, was activated by Lin Xiao in that instant.
As the Heavenly Demon Palm activated, the vast demonic power within the Nine Nether Demon Body was rapidly drawn out.
The flow of power from the Nine Nether Demon Body technique, unable to keep up with the demand, shifted from active to passive, involuntarily driven and drawn by the Heavenly Demon Palm.
The demonic energy in Lin Xiao’s chaotic dantian was also rapidly extracted, amplified through mysterious channels, and condensed into his palm.
“Chi!”
The chaotic demonic energy in his dantian was drawn too fiercely, breaking through the barrier of the First Martial Lord peak. The aura of the Second Martial Lord emanated from Lin Xiao.
Lin Xiao was astonished. After refining endless righteous energy to break through to the First Martial Lord peak, reaching the Second Martial Lord had been a hurdle, unlikely to be overcome soon under normal circumstances.
He had thought he would need the pressure of battle with Sword Invincible to break through, but unleashing the Heavenly Demon Palm had directly triggered it.
It was unimaginable!
The Heavenly Demon Palm technique was terrifyingly powerful!
Yet, even breaking through to the Second Martial Lord, all his power was completely drained.
“Chi!”
In that instant, Lin Xiao seemed to become a supreme demon, his body pitch-black, hair flying wildly, eyes glowing with dark light, torrents of black energy surging forth.
This black energy seemed like the true demonic energy of a demon!
“Heavenly Demon Palm!”
A deep, resonant voice came from Lin Xiao’s mouth. He struck with a heavy palm, unleashing destructive power that formed a massive black demonic palm.
Boom!
The heavens and earth shook, endless darkness enveloped the land, turning a hundred-mile radius into a dark hell, as if day had turned into pitch-black night.
Torrential demonic energy swept the heavens. Compared to Sword Invincible’s black sword beam, it was like a firefly against a vast moon, not even on the same level.
The black demonic palm was like the hand of a true demon, its energy pure, dominating the heavens, boundless demonic energy like an unrestrained ocean, enveloping everything, as if the end of the world had come.
“Rumble!”
The entire sky vanished from sight. Sword Invincible, under the black palm, met his end in utter terror.
In that instant, everyone was stunned, unable to discern the outcome of the battle in the sky.
But they could clearly feel the terror of Lin Xiao’s palm.
It was as if the world was ending, shaking their souls, as if they could die inexplicably under that palm.
Pfft!
In the pitch-black sky, Lin Xiao spat out a mouthful of blood. The Heavenly Demon Palm was too terrifying. Even with the Nine Nether Demon Body and his breakthrough to the Second Martial Lord, he was still backlash-damaged.
His body’s power was completely drained, leaving him utterly weakened.
Had he not immediately activated his spiritual energy, he would have collapsed.
Swoosh! Swoosh! Swoosh!
At that moment, a sudden change occurred!
Several forces suddenly shot toward him from the surroundings.
These forces seemed like small fist beams, subtle but carrying the pressure of Martial Emperors, making him feel suffocated.
Clearly, Martial Emperors were attacking him, and not just one.
Lin Xiao’s face showed shock. Against Martial Emperor power, he was helpless, especially in his drained state.
The attack came too suddenly. Before he could retrieve the Martial Emperor War Seal from Eastern Origin, the forces closed in, their terrifying pressure locking onto him.
A thick sense of mortal danger surged within him.
