Chapter 1336 - 692: I Underestimated You
Every clash between the Demon Refining Spear and the Tai Chi Sword emitted a bizarre sound like a baby’s wail, and Long Teng’s palm had cracked to the bone.
The most terrifying aspect was Gu Sheng’s sword moves—there were no elaborate techniques, just the simplest chops and thrusts, yet each stroke of Sword Qi left lingering black and white trails in the air.
"Impossible!"
Long Teng suddenly roared and retreated violently. His chest’s clothing suddenly tore open, revealing the Heart Protecting Shield inside which gleamed with golden light.
But Liang Yu saw it clearly; the mirror, reputed to withstand attacks from the Taichu Realm, was already covered with cracks.
"You are obviously just from the Heavenly Palace..."
Gu Sheng’s figure suddenly split into three. Liang Yu rubbed his eyes desperately, only to realize they were not afterimages.
The three Gu Shengs simultaneously swung their swords down, the trajectories strangely forming a perfect Tai Chi Diagram.
The Demon Refining Spear in Long Teng’s hands emitted a dying beast’s wail, and seven bleeding eyes suddenly opened on its shaft.
"Seven Evils Soul Stealing!"
Long Teng bit through his tongue and spat on the spear’s tip, immediately causing the seven eyes to shoot black light.
Liang Yu’s hope rose, only to watch Gu Sheng face it head-on without dodging, the Yin Yang Qi on the Tai Chi Seven Star Sword suddenly transformed into substantial swimming fish, devouring all the black light.
Long Teng’s scream came sooner than Liang Yu expected.
He watched helplessly as his senior brother was smashed onto the sacrificial altar like a rag, and the notoriously fierce Demon Refining Spear broke into two, its spearhead part still twitching unwillingly in the rubble.
On the dust-covered battlefield, the Tai Chi Seven Star Sword in Gu Sheng’s hand revealed its true sharpness for the first time.
The seven stars on the sword’s body lit up in sequence, outlining a brilliant starry river under the gloomy sky.
"How... How is this possible?!"
Long Teng clutched his chest and retreated dozens of feet.
He looked down at the deep sword mark on his chest, the blood gushing from the wound.
Gu Sheng did not give him a moment to breathe, his form flashed before Long Teng, the Seven Stars Sword drawing a perfect arc.
Where the sword’s edge passed, the space appeared slightly distorted.
"Puh—"
Long Teng hastily raised the Bronze Cauldron, only for it to be split in two by a single sword strike, the cut as smooth as a mirror.
The evil artifact that had once brewed hundreds of thousands of souls fell to the ground at this moment, emitting a dull thud.
"No! My cauldron!"
From afar, the bound Liang Yu let out a heart-wrenching scream, his eyes filled with blood-shot lines.
He struggled desperately, but could only watch helplessly as he and Wang Yuchen’s years of efforts were destroyed.
Gu Sheng cast a cold glance at Liang Yu, his sword momentum unabated, directly aiming at Long Teng’s throat.
"Brat, don’t be arrogant!"
Long Teng roared, blood light burst suddenly from his whole body.
He formed seals with his hands, a blood-colored skeleton head appearing out of thin air, opening its huge mouth to bite at Gu Sheng.
"A petty trick."
Gu Sheng’s lips curved slightly, the Seven Stars Sword lightly flicked, and the seven stars simultaneously shone brightly.
The blood-colored skull was shredded to pieces by the sword light before it could get close.
"This... this sword..."
Long Teng finally showed a look of terror, feeling the terrifying power contained within the Tai Chi Seven Star Sword, far beyond that of a common spiritual artifact.
Gu Sheng gave Long Teng no time to think, the sword’s edge turned, seven streaks of Sword Qi shooting like meteors.
Long Teng hastily dodged, yet was still hit by three of the Sword Qi, blood spurting simultaneously from his right arm, left leg, and abdomen.
"Ah!"
Long Teng let out a miserable scream, his body flying backward, crashing heavily onto the distant sacrificial altar.
The altar made of obsidian collapsed with a roar, burying Long Teng completely.
The entire battlefield fell silent for an instant, with only the sound of falling rubble echoing in the air.
"Lord... Lord Long Teng was defeated?"
Lishan Ancestor’s eyelids twitched wildly, his forehead covered in fine cold sweat.
He just witnessed Long Teng’s power firsthand in action, that kind of strength filled him with despair.
Yet Gu Sheng defeated him with absolute superiority, although the Tai Chi Seven Star Sword played an indispensable role, Gu Sheng’s own strength was equally terrifying.
Lishan Ancestor thought to himself.
Even holding the Tai Chi Seven Star Sword himself, he feared he couldn’t harm a hair on Long Teng. This Gu Sheng, what kind of monster is he?
"It’s over... all over..."
Liang Yu’s face was ashen, his whole body trembling uncontrollably.
He had originally counted on Long Teng to defeat Gu Sheng and rescue him, never expecting things to turn out like this.
Thinking of how he had once betrayed and exposed Gu Sheng’s true identity, the two had become mortal enemies, Liang Yu felt a chill rising from his feet straight to his head.
"Lord... Lord Ling Xiao..."
Liang Yu turned to Ling Xiao beside him, his voice trembling.
"I beg you to have mercy, I... I am willing to offer all my possessions..."
"Slap!"
A loud slap interrupted Liang Yu’s plea for mercy.
Ling Xiao’s eyes flashed with cold light, his voice cold as ice.
"A treacherous dog like you also dares to beg for mercy?"
Half of Liang Yu’s face swelled immediately, blood seeping from the corner of his mouth.
He looked at Ling Xiao in terror, only to see the latter slowly draw a dagger, lightly tracing it across his face.
"Do you know how we deal with traitors?"
Ling Xiao sneered.
"First we’ll skin you alive, then throw you into boiling water to simmer. Rest assured, I’ll keep you conscious to enjoy every moment of it."
Liang Yu’s eyes rolled back, fainting from sheer fright.
"Trash."
Similarly bound, Wang Yuchen spat with contempt, eyes full of disgust.
He turned to Ling Xiao, trying hard to squeeze out a flattering smile.
"Lord Ling, I’m different from this fool. I was coerced by Long Teng, and have no deep grudge against Lord Gu Sheng..."
Ling Xiao raised an eyebrow, slightly surprised at Wang Yuchen’s words. But soon, Wang Yuchen’s eyes also revealed a fawning look, continuing to speak.
