Chapter 2723
Li Xing glanced at the Dragon Cutting Sword that Kai held, a frown creasing his brow. Suddenly, a massive battle axe appeared, glowing ominously amidst the blood-red light emanating from his forehead, firmly grasped in Li Xing’s hand!
“Open the heavens and open the earth…”
With a fierce determination, Li Xing swung his axe down towards Kai.
This powerful strike unleashed a thunderous roar, echoing through the mountain forest and uprooting trees in its wake!
Kai, undeterred, hurled his Dragon Chopping Sword overhead, successfully intercepting Li Xing’s devastating blow!
Boom…
The collision of the Dragon Chopping Sword and Li Xing’s giant axe sent shockwaves through the air!
Kai’s stature seemed to dwarf momentarily as Li Xing was propelled backwards by the immense force, soaring more than ten meters before managing to regain his footing!
“What a remarkable sword! This is my Heaven-opening Axe, and yet your sword remains unscathed after this strike!”
Li Xing’s gaze lingered on the Dragon Cutting Sword in Kai’s grasp, a hint of greed flickering in his eyes!
“Heaven-opening Axe? That’s quite a grand name, but soon, it will no longer be yours.”
With that, Kai unleashed the divine power of the dragon, illuminating the Zeng Long Sword with a brilliant glow, accompanied by a resounding dragon roar!
“Chop…”
Kai shouted with intensity as he brought the Dragon Chopping Sword crashing down!
A dazzling sword aura surged straight towards Li Xing!
The terrifying energy left a deep gash in the ground, racing towards Li Xing at breakneck speed!
Reacting swiftly, Li Xing raised his Heaven-opening Axe to defend himself!
Boom…
The sheer force sent Li Xing hurtling backwards once more, toppling over a dozen trees before landing heavily on the ground!
With a grimace, Li Xing slowly rose, his expression filled with fear as he surveyed Kai.
However, when he retrieved his broken Heaven-opening Axe, his terror deepened!
Li Xing stared in disbelief—the mighty Heaven-opening Axe had been cleaved in two, leaving only the handle in his grasp!
“How is this possible? This… this is a Heaven-opening Axe forged from tungsten steel! How could it be shattered like this?”
Li Xing was baffled; he couldn’t comprehend how his once indestructible Heaven-opening Axe had succumbed to Kai’s sword!
What kind of divine weapon was the sword Kai wielded?
“Your Heaven-opening Axe is gone. Isn’t it time to call for your companion?”
Kai inquired, shifting his attention towards Li Xing!
Li Xing gritted his teeth, saying, “Brother Huben, it seems we need to join forces to deal with this kid…”
As soon as Li Xing finished speaking, Huben emerged from his concealed position!
Upon seeing Huben, Kai instantly understood why he had been deceived by the guard earlier!
“Huben, as the Great General of the Demon Emperor City’s guards, you allied with this Knight Star to trap me here. Are you aware of your crimes?”
Kai confronted Huben directly!
Interestingly, Huben had previously been considered one of Kai’s subordinates.
“Know my sins? What sins? I simply can’t stand you and decided to team up with Li Xing to take you down. What’s wrong with that?”
“Don’t think just because Princess Isha is fond of you and the Demon Emperor holds you in esteem, that you’re untouchable in Demon Emperor City.”
“Even if I were to kill you today, I’m confident that neither Princess Isha nor the Demon Emperor would dare retaliate!”
Huben declared with a sneer!
“Kill me?” Kai scoffed, “If you really think you can do that, the Demon Emperor will have you torn to shreds!”
Huben shrugged dismissively. “Hmph, if I kill you today, neither God nor the Demon Emperor will ever know.”
After saying this, Huben pulled an orb from his pocket and tossed it into the air!
The entire mountain forest trembled as the orb ascended, glowing brightly like the sun. A cascade of golden light radiated down, illuminating the area as if it were sealed in a golden aura!
