Chapter 5483 Heaven-Shaking Sword
Chapter 5483 Heaven-Shaking Sword
Yue Zifeng’s sword slashed down with an unmatched ferocity that could extinguish all life. It cut apart all the laws of the world.
He had prepared this attack for a long time, but no one had noticed it. His Sword Dao had ascended to an indescribable realm, so profound that even a Dragon Emperor failed to sense his presence.
In his previous encounter with the Silver Hair Void Crusher, Yue Zifeng had faced a significant setback. It was a humbling moment, one where he stood before a true expert and realized the limits of his power.
But Yue Zifeng was not someone who crumbled under pressure. The greater the challenge, the harder he worked to overcome it. After his defeat, he immersed himself entirely in the Sword Dao, training relentlessly every day. The question that consumed him was simple yet profound: How could he, through the Sword Dao alone, triumph over such terrifying opponents?
Wavecutter had always been Yue Zifeng’s most powerful technique, the one he trusted fully. It had never failed him—until that fateful encounter. The Silver Hair Void Crusher had exposed the technique’s flaws, and for the first time, Yue Zifeng saw that Wavecutter was incomplete.
Afterward, he poured his heart into perfecting the technique. Through tireless effort, he created eighty-one variations of Wavecutter, each tailored for different combat scenarios. Beyond that, every variation had eighty-one extensions, ensuring that no matter the opponent, Yue Zifeng would have a countermeasure.
Originally, Yue Zifeng had wanted to use it against the Silver Hair Void Crusher. However, after witnessing Long Chen’s complete transformation, he chose to step back, silently accumulating power instead. Long Chen had told him that this upcoming battle would require all their power to face.
Every enemy slain would mean more survivors among the Dragon Domain’s warriors. This would definitely be a ferocious battle.
Yue Zifeng had been meticulously preparing his attack, waiting for the right moment. Unexpectedly, the bone dragon race’s patriarch stepped forward, becoming his new target. Without hesitation, Yue Zifeng unleashed the full might of his strongest technique.
As Yue Zifeng’s sword descended, it was as if heaven and earth themselves were torn apart.
The bone dragon patriarch, sensing death’s icy grip, roared in desperation, “Dragon Bone Shield!”
Clasping his hands together, he summoned his core dragon bones, which crossed before him to form a shield. This was a unique secret art of the bone dragon race, and every single one of these core bones was a powerful divine weapon.
Emperor runes gathered together on top of these dragon bones, exuding a crushing aura that could sap the courage of any opponent. This was the bone dragon race’s ultimate defensive art. For a Heaven Saint to force a Dragon Emperor to use this move, no one would believe it if they didn’t personally see it.
BOOM!
The bone dragon shield had barely formed when Yue Zifeng’s sword descended with unstoppable force, embodying a will that sought to annihilate all ten thousand Daos. With a heaven-shaking explosion, the shield shattered into fragments.
“What?!”
Both friends and foes were stunned by this sword; even a Dragon Emperor’s absolute defense was incapable of stopping it.
As the bone dragon patriarch was flung backward, a crack on his forehead drew everyone’s attention. Blood streamed down his face, and the terror in his eyes was unmistakable.
“A Dragon Emperor isn’t that strong,” Yue Zifeng snorted coldly, sheathing his sword.
After that, he looked at the bone dragon race’s patriarch apathetically, as if the latter was completely insignificant.
However, Long Chen and the others knew the truth—this strike had drained Yue Zifeng completely. As a sword cultivator, his hidden aura and formidable mental strength could mask his exhaustion.
Witnessing Yue Zifeng nearly slay a Dragon Emperor in a single strike left everyone stunned. Even Mo Yang, Chi Wufeng, and other sealed peerless geniuses were in awe. In all their lives, they had never encountered such a terrifying sword cultivator.
This sword not only destroyed the bone dragon patriarch’s shield and sliced his head but also shattered the confidence of the resonant dragon race, bone dragon race, and Netherdragon race.
“Brothers of the Dragonblood Legion!” Long Chen’s voice roared across the battlefield. “The dragon race’s seniors have treated us very well, giving us their bloodline and trusting us with their legacy. It’s time to show them their choice was right! Draw your weapons and take your enemies’ heads!”
“Kill!”
The Dragonblood warriors roared in unison and came out like a flood, surrounding the bone dragon race’s patriarch.
The Dragonblood Legion had always stood at Long Chen’s side, appearing as if stationed there to protect him. In truth, this was a deliberate ploy by Long Chen. He had carefully calculated that someone would attempt to capture the king at the start of the battle.
Long Chen had anticipated that Netherdragon Tianfeng, the reckless brute, would be the one to take the bait. If that idiot had attacked, Yue Zifeng would have ended him with ease, leaving the Netherdragon race leaderless and tipping the scales in their favor.
However, the unexpected happened. The bone dragon patriarch was the one to strike first. Long Chen had assumed the patriarch would command his forces from the rear, maintaining a strategic overview, but he suddenly attacked out of nowhere. This showed that even a master strategist like Long Chen could miscalculate.
But since the bone dragon patriarch had presented himself, there was no way the Dragonblood Legion would let him escape.
Gu Yang was the first to attack. The moment the patriarch staggered from Yue Zifeng’s devastating attack, Gu Yang’s manifestation burst forth, and a deafening dragon cry reverberated through the battlefield. His dragon bone spear gleamed with violent energy as it lunged toward the patriarch with deadly precision.
This spear had fully bonded with Gu Yang, acknowledging him as its master. Now, it unleashed its true potential, radiating a domineering spirit that seemed to crush the very air around it.
The bone dragon race’s patriarch was still dizzy from Yue Zifeng’s attack. His soul throbbed with pain, and the will contained within Yue Zifeng’s sword had nearly shattered his own. When Gu Yang’s spear came hurtling toward him, he instinctively tried to retreat, unwilling to confront another lethal blow head-on.
Yet, as he tried to move, shock overtook him. The ground beneath his feet was covered in glowing runes that glued him in place. At some point, he had fallen into a trap laid by Li Qi and Song Mingyuan. Their combined techniques had silently ensnared him, binding him where he stood.
Panicked, the bone dragon patriarch roared and smashed his fist against Gu Yang’s attack.
BOOM!
Gu Yang was flung back, coughing blood, but the patriarch’s arm exploded in the process. Desperate and enraged, the patriarch shattered the ground beneath him, breaking free of the binding runes.
Having taken successive serious injuries, the bone dragon patriarch knew he was in a precarious situation. Yet, before he could flee, a flash of golden light appeared behind him. In an instant, his head flew into the sky.
