Chapter 1739 - 1736: Defeating Zhao Wuyou!
Zhao Wuyou let out a beast-like, hysterical roar, suddenly thrusting the Golden Snake Sword upward.
At this moment, the aura emanating from the Golden Snake Sword in his hand was several times more violent than before.
"Slash!"
The murderous intent had not fully been expressed before Zhao Wuyou’s giant sword descended with a thunderous chop.
"Boom!"
The giant sword, bursting with golden light, sliced down with such force that the surrounding void seemed unable to withstand the ferocious impact and split apart on the spot.
At this instant, it felt as though the entire world was crumbling, with terrifying omens appearing one after another, as if it were the apocalypse.
"Hiss!"
Witnessing Zhao Wuyou unleash such a terrifying strike, Mo Zhan, Li Mengjiao, and Master Jingkong couldn’t help but gasp.
Even a Fake Tribulation Crossing Great Power could unleash such a terrifying strike.
If it were a true Tribulation Crossing Great Ability, what kind of horrifying Sword Intent could they unleash?
At this thought, Mo Zhan’s heart began to race, with a yearning gleam flashing in his sinister pupils.
Li Mengjiao’s desire to become stronger was not as intense as Mo Zhan’s.
At this moment, her gaze was fixed on Li Chen.
Watching to see if he could withstand this strike, and how he might counter it?
Should she be in his place, even deploying the strongest secret technique of their Qianxue Hall would likely be hard to resist!
However, as for Li Chen, his expression remained as calm as a tranquil ancient well.
A faint smile tugged at the corners of his mouth.
"Ha, finally something interesting!"
Before the words had fully left his lips, Li Chen sent forth the Heavenly Sky Bell he had taken from Zhao Meng.
The Heavenly Sky Bell expanded rapidly in the wind, soon transforming into a towering mountain, standing before Li Chen to confront Zhao Wuyou’s sword strike directly.
"Boom!"
A fierce and unmatched clash exploded overhead!
Next, the light on the Heavenly Sky Bell quickly dimmed.
On closer inspection, it wasn’t difficult to notice that the patterns on its surface were starting to fracture, forming a dense web of cracks like a spider’s web.
"Break for me!"
Zhao Wuyou shouted to the sky in rage, releasing a terrifying Sword Intent that could rend flesh and tear the heavens, to bombard the Heavenly Sky Bell again.
"Boom!"
The Heavenly Sky Bell, unable to bear such a burden, shattered along the previous web of cracks.
Seeing the Heavenly Sky Bell shatter, Zhao Wuyou’s mind surged with emotion.
This Heavenly Sky Bell was a Lifebound Magical Treasure bestowed upon Zhao Meng by the Great Elder of their Zhao Family.
Its sturdiness, being a direct descendant of the Zhao Family, he was well aware of.
In the past, all his efforts were unable to harm this Heavenly Sky Bell.
But he never imagined that now a single sword strike could shatter it.
Moreover, this was merely the power unleashed by a Fake Tribulation Crossing Great Power.
If it were a true Tribulation Crossing Great Ability, the instantaneous explosive power would be unimaginable?
Unfortunately, after consuming the Heavenly Spirit Pill for forced breakthrough, his foundation was severely damaged, and he would likely never be able to surpass this realm and become a true Tribulation Crossing Great Ability.
Thinking of this, a blaze of anger reignited in Zhao Wuyou’s mind.
All of this, everything, was caused by Li Chen, the mastermind.
If he couldn’t shred him to pieces, it would be hard to extinguish the hatred in his heart.
With these thoughts, Zhao Wuyou’s attack on Li Chen grew even more ferocious.
However, although his attacks were tremendously fierce, having just forcibly broken through to the Fake Tribulation Crossing Realm, he could not deploy attacks at will.
Thus, it can be said that the more ferocious and torrential his attacks, the more flaws they exposed.
Given the right opportunity, Li Chen could easily exploit these flaws to turn the tide and kill him on the spot.
Zhao Wuyou saw Li Chen continuously evading, unwilling to face him head-on, and he clenched his teeth, shouting wildly:
"Cursed wretch, if you’re a man, face me directly, don’t hide like a cowardly turtle!"
As he spoke, he once again raised the Golden Snake Sword for a wide-range attack, seemingly forcing Li Chen out.
Seeing this, Li Chen’s pupils suddenly contracted, shooting out a sharp gleam to pierce through Zhao Wuyou’s stormy Sword Intent.
Soon, within the turbulent Sword Intent, he identified several mottled dark spots.
These dark spots were swaying precariously, highly unstable.
Clearly, these were the flaws.
Though they were minor, for Li Chen, they were enough.
Detecting these, Li Chen hesitated not the slightest, swiftly extended his hand into the air, grabbing the Seven-star Dragon Abyss, and charging toward Zhao Wuyou.
Seeing Li Chen finally cornered by himself, Zhao Wuyou laughed triumphantly.
"You cowardly turtle, finally willing to show yourself!"
Speaking, the Sword Intent on him surged even more violently, wielding the Snake-shaped Giant Sword, slashing frantically at Li Chen.
"Clang!"
Two formidable Sword Intents collided in midair.
The entire central hall trembled under the immense energetic impacts, seeming perilously close to collapse.
If not for the Forbidden Barrier supporting the hall, it might have collapsed into ruins long ago.
In this moment of life-and-death confrontation, a unique smile of the Death God appeared at the corner of Li Chen’s mouth.
Seeing the smile at Li Chen’s mouth, Zhao Wuyou’s expression froze.
This smile, he had just witnessed.
Moreover, it appeared twice.
One time was during the slaughter of Dugu Bai.
The other was when Zhuge Qingyun was slain.
At this thought, Zhao Wuyou’s eyes filled with shock like seeing a ghost demanding vengeance.
Before he could react, Li Chen suddenly opened his palm.
In his palm appeared a vortex like a black hole.
Soon, the terrifying energies around him converged like rivers into the sea, gathering frantically.
When the gathered power reached an extremely terrifying maximum, Li Chen clenched his palm fiercely.
In the next instant, an indescribably fearsome fist edge surged with an overpowering stance, furiously striking at Zhao Wuyou.
The target was precisely the flaw beneath Zhao Wuyou’s rib.
Seeing the situation, Zhao Wuyou was terror-stricken, urgently attempting to block with his sword.
However, the hasty defense he arranged was far from capable of withstanding Li Chen’s attack, meticulously planned for a long time.
"Clang!"
The punch struck like a meteor hitting the moon, brutally impacting Zhao Wuyou’s Golden Snake Sword Edge.
Following this was a resounding sonic boom.
The Golden Snake Giant Sword emitted a resonant sword hum, then with a "crack," shattered explosively.
After shattering Zhao Wuyou’s Lifebound Magical Treasure, the savage and unmatched fist edge continued its unstoppable menacing advance toward his rib.
