Free Web NovelChapter 64: Chapter 64: Like a God of Death
The eyes of the few remaining Celestial City Academy students were filled with terror, and they began to back away involuntarily.
It was too terrifying!
Everyone looked at Shen Daoxing, and a single thought dominated their minds.
The scene unfolding before them was simply too frightening, too shocking.
Their fellow disciples, alive and well just moments ago, were now nothing but cold corpses.
’Is this Shen Daoxing even human?’
’How can he be so strong!?’
....
Right now, although the Celestial City Academy students loathed Shen Daoxing, their hearts were filled more with terror and fear.
Even the faces of Zhou Bu’Er, Tang Ying, and Hua Lin were ashen.
This was especially true for Hua Lin, who was still struggling to suppress the Demon Fire raging within his body.
"The three of us will handle him!"
A glint of anger appeared in Zhou Bu’Er’s eyes. With that, he leaped into the air.
BOOM!
His Palm Technique was just like his personality: fierce and domineering.
A single palm strike descended, carrying a terrifying force capable of shattering mountains and breaking stone, accompanied by the roars of a hundred stampeding beasts.
This was the Hundred Beasts Fist!
After Xia Junze had obtained the Hundred Beasts Fist from the True Dragon Secret Realm, he had not only taught it to his younger brother but had also passed it down to Zhou Bu’Er.
Shen Daoxing didn’t retreat an inch. He swept his sword out directly. As the blade passed, the surrounding air formed two swirling currents, stirring up a terrifying gale.
THUD!
The two attacks collided in midair with a tremendous crash, and Zhou Bu’Er was immediately forced back several steps.
One move!
A single move was all it took to force back Zhou Bu’Er, one of the Four Heroes.
Hua Lin gave a sharp cry, took out his iron hammer, and brought it smashing down.
THUD!
Although he was using part of his cultivation to suppress the Demon Fire, the hammer strike was still packed with power.
The hammer had an impressive origin. It was a replica of the Eight-Treasure Hammer, a National Guardian Divine Soldier from an empire in the East Continent. Though a replica, it contained a sliver of the original’s might.
Relying on this replica Eight-Treasure Hammer, Hua Lin had built a brilliant and imposing combat record.
Shen Daoxing stood as firm as a mountain. He suddenly clenched his fist, and the air at his fingertips seemed to pop, letting out a series of CRACKLING sounds.
BOOM!
He met the attack with a punch. The instant his Fist Force collided with the hammer, the very ground shook.
Hua Lin felt a terrifying power travel up the hammer, and he was sent flying backward.
"It’s a Sword Body!" Tang Ying shouted.
After the Sword Institute’s Forbidden Sword Technique was lost, the Sword Body became its most famous legacy.
However, many experts criticized it. ’A Swordsman who doesn’t properly cultivate the Sword Dao and instead focuses on Body Refining Martial Arts... no wonder the Sword Institute has fallen into decline.’
But only those from Celestial City Academy knew just how terrifying the Sword Body was—even more formidable than typical Body Refining Martial Arts.
"Too weak!"
Shen Daoxing sneered. "Stop wasting my time. I’ll send you on your way now!"
With that, Shen Daoxing raised the Great Ming Demon Sparrow.
BOOM!
The greatsword swept across, seeming to blast the very air apart and emitting a piercing shriek.
Hua Lin, standing at the forefront, no longer dared to suppress the Demon Fire in his body. Primordial Energy surged into his replica Eight-Treasure Hammer.
Unrivaled Hammer! Sweeping Thousand Armies!
Hua Lin’s gaze was ferocious as he swept his hammer forward, clearly intending to meet Shen Daoxing head-on.
THUD!
The greatsword and the hammer collided. In an instant, the replica Eight-Treasure Hammer shattered. The Great Ming Demon Sparrow continued its sweep, striking Hua Lin’s body and instantly vaporizing him into a mist of blood.
"Hua Lin!"
Seeing this, Tang Ying and Zhou Bu’Er cried out in horror, their eyes turning crimson as they glared at Shen Daoxing.
So strong!
The power Shen Daoxing was displaying was simply overwhelming!
He had actually killed Hua Lin, one of the Four Heroes.
"I’ll kill you!"
Zhou Bu’Er fell into a frenzy, charging toward Shen Daoxing like a madman.
He and Hua Lin had been the closest, like blood brothers.
How could he possibly endure seeing Hua Lin utterly annihilated, not even a corpse left behind?
BOOM!
A tremor ran through Shen Daoxing’s Seven-Colored Profound Platform. His Primordial Energy, like boiling magma, surged up toward the heavens, transforming into an endlessly churning, seven-colored river.
Channeling the might of the Great Ming Demon Sparrow, Shen Daoxing cleaved down with his sword once more.
THUD!
As the sword fell, it was as if the world lost its color and the sun and moon dimmed.
Tang Ying hastily raised his Treasure Sword to block, his Five Sword Intent flaring to life.
"Five Sword Intent? Not enough!"
Shen Daoxing sneered as the Great Ming Demon Sparrow descended without mercy. Amidst the swirling seven-colored and black light, no one could see clearly how many Sword Intents he wielded.
’How is this possible!? Six Paths Sword Intent!?’
Only Tang Ying, caught in the heart of the attack, could perceive the truth, and he was aghast.
’Not long ago, when we fought on the Desolate Mountain, he had only comprehended Five Sword Intent. How could he have comprehended another one so soon?’
’Don’t most Swordsmen spend years, even decades, to comprehend a single Sword Intent? Who comprehends a new one as quickly as Shen Daoxing?’
’Is Shen Daoxing truly such a peerless prodigy?’
CRACK!
The Treasure Sword in Tang Ying’s hand could no longer withstand the terrifying assault and shattered into dust.
The Great Ming Demon Sparrow fell without mercy, cleaving Tang Ying in two. Blood splattered, staining the sky red in a horrifying spectacle.
"Now it’s your turn."
Shen Daoxing looked at Zhou Bu’Er and said coldly, "I told you, killing you all is as simple as butchering chickens and dogs."
Zhou Bu’Er roared, "Shen Daoxing! And you call yourself a Martial Artist of the Martial Kingdom! How can you be so vicious?"
"Vicious?"
Shen Daoxing sneered. "In this world, it has always been the law of the jungle, survival of the fittest. The strong are revered. And you’re talking to me about being vicious? Don’t make me laugh."
Zhou Bu’Er knew Shen Daoxing would not hold back. He said coldly, "Today, we’ll fight to the bitter end."
He pushed his cultivation at the Ninth Layer of the Profound Platform realm to its absolute limit. Primordial Energy surged through his meridians like a great river, instantly infusing itself into his Fist Force.
BOOM!
In this moment of life and death, Zhou Bu’Er unleashed his full power, even showing faint signs of breaking through to the Grotto Heaven realm.
THUD! THUD! THUD!
Zhou Bu’Er charged at Shen Daoxing and thrust out his palm. His Primordial Energy erupted with the force of a tidal wave, setting off a series of explosions in the air.
"The fish will die, but the net won’t break!"
Shen Daoxing sneered and swept his Great Ming Demon Sparrow forward.
RUMBLE!
The black greatsword was now wreathed in a dark aura. As Shen Daoxing swung it, it descended like a falling mountain. Its crushing, domineering presence made even the onlookers feel a profound sense of unease.
THUD!
The Great Ming Demon Sparrow struck Zhou Bu’Er’s body.
"AHH—!"
Zhou Bu’Er let out a bloodcurdling scream as the black Demon Fire invaded his body, which instantly burst into flames.
Holding the Great Ming Demon Sparrow, Shen Daoxing looked like the grim reaper himself. He gazed coldly at the remaining students of Celestial City Academy. "Since you’re here, you won’t be leaving."
