Chapter 400: Chapter 400: Black Iron Greatsword VS Long Xin

Tianheng Continent, an unknown valley, where in the void, countless black sword shadows crisscrossed while streams of golden fiery flames burned. A black and a golden figure were fiercely battling in the void.

Had Shi Feng been here, he would surely recognize these two. The figure in black, clad in a black samurai suit, wielding a Black Iron Greatsword in his hand and his left hand empty. His hand was empty because of what Shi Feng had done in the Blood-colored World, at the underground square.

This person was the inheritor of the Sword Emperor, the Big Sword Young Man!

The other figure, cloaked in a Golden Robe, was ablaze with vigorous golden fiery flames.

However, unlike the Big Sword Young Man, it was his right hand that was empty, not because of Shi Feng, but because his father Long Ao’s Demon Claw had brutally crushed it. This person was the fifth son of Long Ao, the former emperor of the Yunlai Empire, Long Xin’s younger brother, Prince Xin—Long Xin!

Perhaps it was destined, or perhaps it was the invisible threads of fate pulling them; two young men, both whose hands were severed and who despised Shi Feng, were waging an intense battle in this valley.

Beneath them, a thick black Demonic Qi surged skyward. Had Shi Feng been there, he would certainly recognize this soaring Demonic Qi, which was akin to the Demon Eye and Demon Finger he had acquired.

"Die!" The Big Sword Young Man faced Long Xin with a cold expression and murderous intent flashing across his face. With a loud cry, he raised the Black Iron Greatsword high. In the void, numerous dense black sword shadows, immediately attracted by the Black Iron Greatsword, converged towards it.

Above the Black Iron Greatsword, a huge shadow of a black sword suddenly enveloped it, then ferociously slashed down at Long Xin. At this moment, the power wielded by the Big Sword Young Man was incomparable to what Shi Feng had seen before—it had grown much stronger.

"Hmph!" Long Xin snorted coldly, his left hand engulfed in golden fiery flames spread wide and a massive golden fiery flame sword burst forth, condensing into shape. The huge clash of sword and blade collided with a thunderous boom.

"Boom!" A violent explosion resonated across heaven and earth, and the valley below, from the sweep of the ferocious power, began to quiver intensely.

At the center of the ferocious power, the two figures, one black and one gold, were thrown back rapidly. Long Xin actually tied with the Big Sword Young Man with that strike!

After flying backward for several meters, both figures abruptly halted, and the violent energy in the surroundings swiftly dissipated. The valley below also ceased its trembling.

Two young faces looking at each other from a distance, the Big Sword Young Man pointed his sword forward and shouted at Long Xin, "If you know what’s good for you, get lost! I lost my left hand, and that mysterious Demon Hand, also for the left hand, happens to be just right for me to use. If you don’t leave now, my next move will kill you!"

"The one who should leave is you! The Demon Hand summoned me here because it recognizes me as its master! Shi Feng, Long Chen, I am the true Heaven’s Chosen One! You, however, are going against heaven’s will and deserve execution! Die!"

As Long Xin spoke, his speech gradually became delirious and with a final loud shout, his face twisted fiercely and he charged forward.

The Imperial Throne was occupied by Long Chen, and Long Xin hadn’t had a peaceful night’s sleep since, constantly thinking about slaying Shi Feng and Long Chen to reclaim what rightfully belonged to him!

In numerous dreams, Long Xin saw himself ascending the throne, accompanied by resounding cheers, with Shi Feng and Long Chen disheveled and kneeling at his feet, repenting.

Gradually, Long Xin’s sanity began to falter, and he frequently had hallucinations. When he first fought with the Big Sword Young Man, Shi Feng’s face seemed to appear on his opponent’s, quickly followed by Long Chen’s.

"Fool!" As Long Xin hurled himself towards him, the Big Sword Young Man bellowed in anger, "If you seek death, then I shall grant it to you!"

The battle power Long Xin had just shown was indeed formidable, but the Big Sword Young Man also truly possessed a means to slay him, though the cost of using that method was great!

But to acquire the mysterious Demon Hand in the valley, the Big Sword Young Man was willing to go all out. Then, he raised the Black Iron Greatsword high once more, bellowing, "The sword is me, I am the sword, the sword and I unite, man and sword become one!"

As his shout ended, the Big Sword Young Man’s entire figure began to spin rapidly, turning into a small black tornado, which quickly grew massive, as if connecting heaven and earth.

This huge black tornado, in form, resembled a long black iron sword, identical to the Great Sword in the young man’s hands, only infinitely larger, piercing through the clouds.

Then, the gigantic black iron tornado sword swiftly approached the golden figure coming towards it, wielding the might to obliterate everything, and violently slashed down!

"Golden Flame Burning Sky! Shi Feng the traitor! Today I shall ensure you have no burial place, taste the agony of death by fiery flames, ha ha! Ha ha ha ha!"

Golden flames immediately burned even more fiercely and violently on Long Xin, sweeping towards the descending tornado sword like a golden sea, seemingly aiming to turn the heavens into nothingness.

The black tornado sword and the violent golden flames collided with immense force.

"Boom boom boom boom boom boom!" The sky seemed to shatter, the earth seemed to moan, and the entire world fell into a state of turmoil, with violent golden flames and rampant sword shadows obscuring the sky above the battlefield.

After a long time, both the fiery flames and the sword shadows slowly faded in the void, revealing a proud black figure standing in the void, while the golden figure had been penetrated by the Black Iron Greatsword, held aloft, fresh red blood continuously dripping down, falling upon the black figure below.

Though the Big Sword Young Man stood proudly, victorious, it was clear that victory had come at a steep cost. His clothes had already been burned to nothing by the flames, his body bare and charred black, faintly emitting black smoke and the stench of burnt flesh.

However, the Big Sword Young Man’s face appeared untroubled, and from his expression, he seemed oblivious to the burns. His head held high, his face and gaze cold, he looked up at Long Xin impaled by the sword and said coldly, "It seems we share a common enemy, the beast Shi Feng!"

When he spoke of Shi Feng, a fierce expression crossed the Big Sword Young Man’s face, marking an indelible pain and humiliation that would never fade!
