The Peerless Emperor-Chapter 484 - 485: Trading Life for Life ()

Chapter 484 -485: Trading Life for Life (Chapter 13)

Two long swords, successfully armed, collided together, and the nine dragons, conjured from three different types of Soul Power, also roared in unison, twisting their bodies and charging headlong towards the colliding swords.

Buzz!

The booming sound completely filled the air, and the fierce flames burning around Lin Qian had vanished, replaced by an Emperor robe embroidered with nine dragons, calmly revealing itself to the world.

At the same time, the Thunder Night Sword and the Cloud Sword in Lin Qian’s hands had disappeared, replaced by a three-foot-three-inch long golden sword.

The body of the sword was narrower than the Thunder Night Sword, yet wider than the Cloud Sword, and the whole glittering golden body of the sword was entwined with three black dragons, had three white dragons baring their teeth and claws, and three yellow dragons holding a posture charging towards the sword tip, all looking lifelike.

On Lin Qian’s body, a golden aura of Soul Power appeared, and it seemed as if a golden ring enveloped him, exuding an air of nobility.

The Emperor’s might within Lin Qian burst forth once again, emitting an overbearing and irresistible aura that spread outwards, oppressively shocking all around.

The onlookers who had come to watch, suddenly changed expressions, as Soul Power immediately emerged from within their bodies, gathered around them to withstand the terrifying oppressive force that was bearing down.

Feeling the oppressive force, solid as reality, impacting upon their own Soul Power, everyone’s faces greatly altered, and their eyes, filled with disbelief, turned towards Lin Qian, doubting if they had seen incorrectly.

“Is this really a member of the Human Clan?” murmured an elder from the Red Horn Clan, who had hurried over from afar, gazing incredulously at Lin Qian standing aloft in the distance.

They had indeed heard some news about the Human Clan recently, yet they’d never imagined the Human Clan could be so formidable, completely shattering their previous impressions of the clan.

The one who really felt the immense pressure was Shen Zhixing, who faced Lin Qian. Watching as the aura on Lin Qian surged once more, he truly wanted to ask how much more strength had not yet been unleashed.

He had already been very vigilant, even sensing immense danger from Lin Qian, and had directly burned his origin in an attempt to kill him, to avenge his son and make him pay for reducing his Royal City to ashes. fɾēewebnσveℓ.com

At this moment, Shen Zhixing had used all his tricks in an effort to slay Lin Qian.

If killing him failed, he thought about leveraging the natural talents of the Black Corner Clan, using Soul Power to wear down his opponent.

But from the prior events, it seemed likely that he would be the one worn down.

Compared to Shen Zhixing’s worried frown, Lin Qian felt extremely delighted; it had been a long time since he’d enjoyed a fight this much.

Shen Zhixing, worthy of being a Master Level fighter from the Awakening Realm, indeed possessed formidable strength, continuously able to suppress Lin Qian after burning his origin.

However, it was this high-frequency attack of Soul Power that completely honed Lin Qian himself.

Lin Qian had recently broken into the Awakening Realm, and the power of being doubly armed with the Thunder Night Sword and the Cloud Sword was still quite novel to him.

Shen Zhixing, for Lin Qian, was simply the best whetstone.

What was increasingly pressuring Shen Zhixing was not Lin Qian laying all his cards on the table, but rather Lin Qian’s evident, rapid improvement in handling the onslaught of Soul Power during their encounter, making his suppression weaker and eventually uncontrollable.

If it had been at the beginning, Lin Qian could not have escaped from such intense Soul Power.

It was precisely the increasing control over his own strength that enabled Lin Qian to freely break free from Shen Zhixing’s oppressive attacks and step out of the range of his Soul Power assault.

Feeling that his own refinement was about sufficient, Lin Qian thought it was time to end the battle.

Shen Zhixing’s Soul Power had already started to weaken, and his original source was burning to its limit, merely a step away from plummeting from the Seventh Level of the Awakening Realm.

Inside Lin Qian, the three kinds of Soul Power fused into one, completely transforming into the golden Emperor Attribute Soul Power, which surged from the palm of his hand into the body of the sword.

The dragon roared furiously. Lin Qian’s originally expansive and mighty Emperor intent suddenly converged, his pupils glimmering with a golden sheen as he stared intently at Shen Zhixing across from him.

Looking at Lin Qian, whose aura had converged, Shen Zhixing’s expression drastically changed; this posture of the opponent was the most terrifying.

It looked unremarkable now, but the burst that was to follow would be fierce.

“You all leave!” Seeing Lin Qian’s stance, Shen Zhixing quickly yelled at his subordinates from the Black Corner Clan, “Preserve your lives, and remember to avenge your king one day.”

Shen Zhixing now had no confidence in that he was definitely going to kill Lin Qian and hastily ordered his surviving subordinates to quickly flee from this troubled place.

Once he truly died at Lin Qian’s hands, if they hadn’t escaped by then, they would probably be completely annihilated.

By that time, if he truly died in vain, there would no longer be anyone to avenge him.

Lin Qian continued to channel Soul Power into the Emperor Sword, glancing at the group of Black Corner Clan.

Merely this glance sent these Black Corner Clan members into a panic-stricken flee; there was no need for further urging by Shen Zhixing as they turned and scrambled away.

When Lin Qian’s gaze, shimmering with golden light, shifted toward them, those surviving members of the Black Corner Clan felt a chill deep in their bones and a crippling fear.

“Break of dawn, kill!”

Suddenly, three harsh words sprang from Lin Qian’s mouth, sending a deadly silence across the land, leaving everyone bewildered.

Bang!

The next moment, a huge collision sound erupted as an arrow thick as an arm tore through the air, turning into a pale yellow streak of light, shooting out at high speed from the dense forest below.

From where the arrow was shot, the ground within a thirty-li radius collapsed violently, and the force of the arrow turned all the Spirit Wood in the area to dust.

The arrow that streaked across the sky arrived in an instant, directly blasting the Sixth Level Awakening Realm Black Corner Clan member who had just turned to flee into a cloud of blood mist, exploding in mid-air.

Following closely, a heroic man dressed in Light Armor leapt up from below, his eyes deep as a hawk’s, staring at the area ahead. With muscles tense on his exposed arms, he held a giant Red bow as tall as a man, aiming at the group of Black Corner Clan trying to flee.

Bang! Bang! Bang!

Every arrow shot was accompanied by a sudden explosive noise; giant, bright yellow arrows claimed the lives of the Black Corner Clan.

In seven breaths, thirty-six enormous arrows had blasted nearly ten thousand surviving members of Shen Zhixing’s Black Corner Clan into nothingness, leaving no survivors.

The hero in Light Armor slung the giant bow back, securing it steadily behind him, and knelt in mid-air before Lin Qian, bowing his head and saying, “Your Majesty, your servant has completed your command without disgrace. The enemy was fully punished!”

“Well done, arise,” Lin Qian nodded in satisfaction, not stinting in his praise.

“Lin Qian, I’ll fight you with all I’ve got.” Right after, Shen Zhixing furiously howled at Lin Qian, his body bathed in purple flames, his originally black hair now gray and withered, a sign of life rapidly draining away.
