477 Collapsing World
A sense of crisis started forming!
When the Dragon King Aether saw Lin Xuan turn into a figure that was several feet tall, that figure also managed to expand a huge sword to become 20 meters long. If that was all, it would not be a big deal, but the sword was also transforming in terms of strength. It was a kind of power that he could not understand, and the sword surged with it.
Soon, cracks appeared on the hilt and body of the sword. Its material could no longer support its continued transformation. Lin Xuan narrowed his eyes and took out a piece of orichalcum essence from his personal space, merging it directly at the Emperor’s Sword.
This material was found in the extreme flame volcano. There was a super large orichalcum vein in the extreme flame volcano, and the orichalcum that Lin Xuan had taken was from the essence of the vein. It was known as the orichalcum essence.
The Emperor’s Sword quickly absorbed the essence and emitted a bright yellow light. With the help of the new material, the Emperor’s Sword had entered the advanced earth-rank threshold. The peak of its upgrade was finally completed, and it was about to expand its depth.
Lin Xuan held the Emperor’s Sword with one hand and raised the growth limit of the Emperor’s Sword with the position of the Human Emperor.
When Lin Xuan held the Emperor’s Sword, the enormous power of the country’s fate in his body suddenly went berserk, causing the rest of the power of the country’s fate to manifest into the Emperor’s Sword. The sun, moon, stars, mountains, rivers, plants, farming techniques, and the strategy to unify the four seas were all condensed!!
When the Emperor’s Sword was drawn, the swords of the four seas would submit!
At this moment, the world seemed to ring with the sound of a sword slashing. It was clear and loud. Everyone who used a sword, whether they were ordinary people or ability users, whether they were new swordsmen or those who were about to master the way of the sword, trembled their swords in respect when the sound of the sword rang.
On Wudang Mountain, the young Daoist carefully observed the world. The ancient sword that he had placed on his cross-legged seat suddenly trembled. He lowered his head and became a little surprised. He had never thought that the up-and-coming star could do this. This was a good sign!
He looked over and saw Lin Xuan holding the Emperor’s Sword and standing in front of the Dragon King Aether. The Dragon King Aether was still in a daze after being punched by Lin Xuan.
It was mainly because the transformation of the Emperor’s Sword was too fast that nothing happened between the two for a while. After many transformations, the absorption power of the Emperor’s Sword had also been strengthened manifold. It was now many times stronger than it was at the beginning.
Therefore, the moment the Dragon King Aether opened his eyes and saw Lin Xuan standing before him with a divine weapon in his hand, he could already feel an indescribable sense of danger emanating from Lin Xuan’s body. He could possibly die from today’s fight!
“Are you really going to kill me?”
The Dragon King Aether did not seem to be afraid of death. His giant body rose into the air, and he looked at Lin Xuan with a pair of cold and fierce gaze. His wings spread out like clouds that covered the sky. “If I die, the war between Eagle Country and Taixia will break out. Can you bear this responsibility? If I die, the bloodline genetic technology of the Blue Planet will be pushed back by three hundred years. Can you bear this responsibility?”
Lin Xuan fell silent. He did not know what to say at that moment. He could only tighten his grip on the Emperor’s Sword, as if that was the only way to give him some comfort in what he planned to do.
This dragon had been away from society for too long, so long that it still treated bloodline genetic technology as a treasure!
In the next moment, Lin Xuan opened his golden eyes, and a powerful saintly aura bloomed. The Emperor’s Might struck the Dragon King Aether’s soul.
“I can’t afford to bear any of the responsibilities that you mentioned. However, have you thought that Eagle Country would start an all-out war with Taixia Country because of you?
“You’re not Eagle Country’s guardian, Superman is. He’s the powerhouse who saved you. Why do you think he’s fighting for you?
“Have you ever thought that bloodline genetic technology is no longer that important? Many countries have even listed it as a forbidden technique!
“Even if this technology was three hundred years backward, no one would dare find trouble with me! You are a remnant of the old era. There is no ship in the new era that can carry you. From today onwards, say goodbye to the old ways and hello to the new!”
‘My Emperor’s Sword still lacks a powerful dragon soul as its weapon spirit!’
Lin Xuan roared in his heart when he said the last sentence. Then, with the intention to kill, he slashed down with the Emperor’s Sword in his hand, again and again!
One slash to cut off the dragon’s head!
At this moment, a shrill dragon’s roar reverberated throughout Dongning. The experts fighting here were all shocked and bewildered. Was the victor decided?
No, that’s not right, this was a life-and-death battle!
Hearing this voice, does that mean that the Dragon King Aether… Was dead?
Heaven and earth mourned as blood rain fell. The world suddenly had an oppressive atmosphere that made it difficult for people to concentrate and made them very uncomfortable.
Lin Xuan took the corpse and stepped out of the alternate dimension. Outside, Superman and the other powerful beings were already there. They saw the beheaded dragon’s head and the Emperor’s Sword that demonstrated terrifying power. In the next second, they were even more shocked. To their surprise, Lin Xuan had already entered the invincible earth-rank without them knowing?!
What the h*ll was this?
When Superman and the others saw the body of the Dragon King Aether, their eyes narrowed. However, they also felt a certain aura that made them extremely fearful. After thinking for a moment, they immediately scurried away. The curtains on this great battle could be considered to have been drawn.
A figure suddenly appeared beside Lin Xuan. It was none other than Daoist Li Er. It was not Zhang San, Li Si, or Wang Wu. His actual body had not walked down Wudang Mountain for nearly a hundred years.
“Well done. However, you should not have killed the Dragon King Aether.”
Li Er smiled bitterly as he shook his head.
“Well, what did Wudang Immortal say?”
Lin Xuan was a little confused.
“There are three treasures in the dungeon space. Profession, cultivation technique, and bloodline. The one you occupy is the bloodline treasure, and the Dragon King Aether is also a bloodline treasure.
“However, unlike you, he was born at the right time to stabilize this world, while you were born to open the path of heaven-rank in Taixia Country. Now that you killed him, the world has lost a treasure and spacetime is no longer stable. The passage to the abyss and h*ll can’t be blocked. You’ve basically put the world in danger!”
Lin Xuan was speechless.
“Why didn’t you warn me in the beginning when the consequences were so serious?”
Lin Xuan’s hair stood on end. For a moment, he was at a loss as to what to do. He did not expect that killing his opponent would have such a huge and unbearable consequence.
