Chapter 4661
His fists surged with violent true qi, each punch carrying the force to shake mountains and rivers, aimed directly at Kai’s vitals.
Yet, as Qiu Wanqing’s ferocious assault bore down on him, Kai suddenly retreated with lightning speed. At the same time, a cold light flared from his hand, sharp and brilliant like a meteor slicing through the night sky. The Dragon Slashing Sword materialized in his grip, its blade exuding a faint dragon’s roar and radiating a subtle, oppressive aura that sent chills through the air.
“Today, I’ll show you the true power of the Dragon Slashing Sword!”
Kai declared in a low, resolute voice as his body rose abruptly, moving like a phantom across the battlefield. In his hands, the Dragon Slashing Sword seemed alive. Every swing resonated with dragon and tiger roars, and where the blade pointed, the air split apart, leaving visible cracks in its wake.
Qiu Wanqing’s expression shifted slightly at the sight. Though he prided himself on his profound cultivation, he dared not underestimate the Dragon Slashing Sword.
Summoning his true qi, he swiftly concentrated it into his palms, preparing to meet the oncoming strike.
“Sword shadows, strike!”
With a fierce shout, Kai stopped abruptly, swinging the Dragon Slashing Sword downward with sudden ferocity. A dazzling light erupted from the blade’s tip, forming a dragon-shaped beam of energy that roared forth, carrying the overwhelming power to obliterate everything in its path.
In response, Qiu Wanqing clapped his palms together, his true qi manifesting as the shadow of a colossal beast, meant to block the devastating blow.
When the dragon-shaped energy collided with the beast shadow, a deafening explosion shook the battlefield. The air tore apart, dust and debris surged wildly, and soldiers retreated in panic, fearful of being caught in the chaos.
The dragon-shaped energy proved unstoppable, piercing through the beast shadow and surging toward Qiu Wanqing.
Shocked, he barely managed to evade, relying on his agility to avoid a fatal strike. Still, the sword’s residual energy grazed his left arm, tearing through his flesh and leaving blood streaming in its wake.
This blow made Qiu Wanqing fully grasp the terror of the Dragon Slashing Sword. From that moment, he dared not underestimate its power again.
However, the battle was far from over. Seizing the momentum, Kai pressed the attack relentlessly. The Dragon Slashing Sword whirled in his hand like an impenetrable storm, each strike carrying the force to split mountains and shatter stone. Qiu Wanqing was forced to retreat step by step, unable to mount a counterattack.
Kai moved with ghostly agility, darting across the battlefield with precision. Every dodge was perfectly timed, causing Qiu Wanqing’s attacks to slice through empty air again and again.
As time passed, Qiu Wanqing realized he was powerless against Kai. Meanwhile, Kai’s assaults only grew fiercer, each strike more daunting than the last. Fear gnawed at Qiu Wanqing as he recognized the strength of both Kai and the formidable Dragon Slashing Sword.
Determined to turn the tide, Qiu Wanqing shifted his tactics. Abandoning reckless aggression, he began to search for openings in Kai’s defense, hoping to exploit a weakness and claim victory through cunning.
Yet, it was as if Kai could read Qiu Wanqing’s mind. He moved like the wind, and the Dragon Slashing Sword seemed alive in his hands—sometimes a blinding flash of sharp light, other times an elusive shadow dissolving every attack. With calm precision, Kai deflected Qiu Wanqing’s strikes and countered at every opportunity.
Finally, the decisive moment came. When Qiu Wanqing’s attack faltered for just an instant, Kai seized the chance.
Leaping into the air like a predator pouncing on its prey, Kai wielded the Dragon Slashing Sword in a graceful arc aimed directly at Qiu Wanqing’s vitals. The blade tore through the air, leaving a deep fissure in its wake.
Qiu Wanqing fought desperately, but against the indomitable edge of the Dragon Slashing Sword, his defenses crumbled. Struck by the devastating blow, he was sent hurtling backward, crashing heavily to the ground.
Struggling to rise, Qiu Wanqing found his internal energy in chaos and his injuries severe.
“You… How can you be this strong?”
Qiu Wanqing stared at Kai in disbelief, his voice trembling with shock and despair.
