Free Web NovelChapter 1853: Chapter 1853: Strike While You’re Down
The King Sword trembled; this sword was seized by Li Feng from the Chen Family, already quite extraordinary, more than sufficient as a sword for a Golden Core Perfect stage.
A hundredfold power surge, the instant force infusion was comparable to a Golden Core Late Stage Perfection strike.
But Li Feng did not immediately swing the sword qi; instead, he drew out the power of three fire seeds surrounding the Golden Core.
Vermilion Bird Fire, Candle Dragon Fire, Fire-eating Blue Flame, none of them can mutually devour each other but can coexist due to Mutated Purple Flame.
As the three flames wrapped around the King Sword’s body, three distinctly different sword qis appeared on the King Sword.
The Vermilion Bird Fire is crimson, Candle Dragon Fire leans toward White Flame, Fire-eating Blue Flame is blue, with these three distinct colors continually intertwining, the sword qi on the King Sword became terrifying.
Li Fengtu let out a low growl.
Li Feng couldn’t sustain this peak state for long. After drawing the three flames to the sword and integrating them into the sword qi, he directly looked at the aerial palace, then swung his sword.
With one swing, the wind and clouds changed color.
Like the Scythe of Death, the sword qi directly cut through space, slicing down any approaching Flying King Ants with the arcs released by the sword qi, then turning them into dust on contact.
Li Feng saw himself slashing toward the aerial palace where the Ant Queen resided.
Aled’s expression changed; the Ant Queen is the supreme existence of the ant swarm and must not suffer harm. Immediately, he ordered the nearby Flying King Ants to intercept the sword qi.
A large number of Flying King Ants rushed out, directly covering the aerial palace, with countless Flying King Ants flying headlong towards the direction of the incoming sword qi.
But Li Feng’s sword was full of killing intent, especially with the three flames infused into the sword qi, none of which were simple.
In the Molten Lava Land, the Fire-eating Blue Flame can grow stronger by devouring fire, sweeping across without weakening, and even strengthening.
Both Vermilion Bird Fire and Candle Dragon Fire are Holy Beast Level fire seeds, having an Innate pressure on lower beings.
The Flying King Ant’s physical strength is far less than that of the Giant King Ant; facing these intertwined flames, hardly any Flying King Ant can resist.
Where the sword qi passed, countless Flying King Ants were cut down.
This sword qi forcefully carved a bloodied path through hundreds of thousands of Flying King Ants, unstoppable, landing on the aerial palace where the Ant Queen was.
This aerial palace was crafted from rare Parasol Wood, which is scarce in the Molten Lava Land but is the only tree able to survive there, also the resting place for the Vermilion Bird.
One can imagine how precious this Parasol Wood is.
Yet even such an aerial palace couldn’t withstand this sword’s might, as the sword qi instantly pierced through the palace’s base, swept past the Ant Queen’s throne, and continued to slash a hole in the palace roof.
The Flying King Ants suspending the palace above died under the sweeping might of the sword qi, losing their pull, letting the heavy Ant Queen palace fall directly.
"Your Majesty."
The palace crashed down, catching the attention of millions in the Ant Race army.
The Fire Ant Queen Isabella fell in disgrace; fortunately, the nearby guards reacted swiftly, quickly catching Isabella.
Glaring at the fallen palace on the ground, the Fire Ant Queen Isabella was furious: "Kill that Li Feng for me."
Li Feng swung his sword without hesitation, sprang into the air, his back Vermilion Bird Wings accelerated along the aerial passage cut by the previous sword toward the fallen palace of the Ant Queen.
The Ant Queen is easy to locate; after all, where an ant queen is, there will gather the masses. Besides, this Ant Queen retained a human form, standing out among the vast ant swarm like a crane among chickens, hard to miss.
Found you.
Li Feng didn’t expect the previous sword to annihilate the Ant Queen; after all, this sword was swung from ten thousand meters away. No matter how mighty it is across the four directions, killing someone from ten thousand meters is like finding a needle in a haystack. The opponent isn’t a wooden block standing still for you to slash.
Though the Ant Queen’s combat power isn’t high, that’s relative; otherwise, if she lacked any survival strength, the queen would have been eliminated long ago.
Li Feng turned directly, charging toward the Ant Queen.
At this moment, the ant swarm was still in shock from the might of the previous sword and the fall of the Ant Queen’s palace. After all, amongst the millions, not every ant can see the queen.
Moreover, at this point, the proud order of the Ant Race revealed a flaw: the reliance on command.
Without orders, the ant army cannot operate smoothly.
All the ant swarm awaited new commands.
Millions of ant soldiers, even though the Ant Race has special methods for communicating orders, layer by layer transmission requires time, possibly only a few seconds.
And these few seconds are enough for Li Feng to swing his sword toward the Ant Queen again.
"Stop him."
Li Feng spotted the Ant Queen Isabella, and Isabella saw Li Feng, immediately ordering his interception.
At this moment, only a few guards stood by the Ant Queen; after all, an ant queen requires a show, and the Ant Race is a group with a highly stratified system.
Those who appear beside the queen are naturally the elite of the Ant Race, along with the queen’s guards.
Every guard beside the queen possesses formidable strength, at least equivalent to human Golden Core Level cultivators, and is the queen’s strongest reliance.
The previous sword eliminated many guards, but several survived; upon hearing the queen’s orders, these Ant Queen guards urgently blocked Li Feng.
Li Feng looked at the guards blocking his way; they already had a half-human form. Though still of ant body, they could walk upright, besides walking on two legs; four feet had evolved into hands.
Moreover, these guards used weapons, wielding them barehanded.
"Four Blade Style."
The queen’s guards drew four blades, flipping them up and down, attacking Li Feng indiscriminately, rapidly like a storm.
Not only were these guards’ attacks swift, but they also packed a punch, at least not inferior to most Martial Artists from Nine Layers Mountain, possibly even stronger.
Facing the guards’ interception, Li Feng coldly shouted: "Scram!"
The Thunder Flame Pill within his dantian erupted again; a domineering soul-capturing wave rippled out, causing the Ant Queen’s guards in front to hesitate for a moment; after all, Li Feng’s Golden Core absorbed the domain pressure from Nine Layers Mountain’s overlord.
Though Li Feng’s domain isn’t fully formed, he grasped a third of the truth from the opponent.
Facing such a high-level domineering pressure, the Ant Queen’s guards were momentarily stunned, as expected by Li Feng.
This hesitation was enough for Li Feng to slash off the opponent’s ant head; his sword moved faster than wind, like Thunder Light, leaving no chance for the opponent to recover.
Kill.
Li Feng was full of killing intent, eyes fixed on the Ant Queen, who was being shielded behind the guards. He quickly dispatched several guards, seeing the queen about to be taken away.
Li Feng raised his hand and flung a Soul Devouring Needle taken from the Leng Family, streaking coldly toward the guard’s back.
