Chapter 731 - 719: The Lonely Big Sword Young Man!

Chapter 731: Chapter 719: The Lonely Big Sword Young Man!

"Boom!" The Black Mist Giant Sword slammed down on the Blood Armor Phantom, once again erupting into a violent roar, with space trembling and the golden lake water boiling and rolling fiercely!

Below the Blood Armor Phantom, Shi Feng looked up coldly. Now that Di Sha was absent, an army of 2,599 Yin Corpses had emerged around Shi Feng!

Shi Feng activated the Formation of Ten Thousand Corpses, and streams of black fog surged from the dense Yin Corpse Group, flowing toward him in the center. The Silver Sickle in Shi Feng’s hand absorbed it wildly.

At the same time, the Nine Nether Power within Shi Feng’s Dantian also continuously flowed into the Silver Sickle. Soon, the Silver Sickle in Shi Feng’s hand began to tremble violently, and a surge of powerful aura rose from it!

Above in the sky, under the defense of the Blood-colored Battle Armor Phantom, the Black Mist Giant Sword gradually dissipated. When the Big Sword Young Man intended to launch another crushing attack, his face suddenly changed drastically as he sensed the strong aura rising from below.

"This! This power!" Shock initially covered the face of the Big Sword Young Man, and then horror set in. He felt a force from below far more powerful than that of his Demon Hand!

The Big Sword Young Man quickly identified the source of that power—the grand force originated from the Silver Sickle in Shi Feng’s hand.

"This! This isn’t possible! He is merely an Eight-star Martial Saint. How can he possess such power! Why! He, Shi Feng, should be slowly succumbing to despair under my assault before I gleefully kill him!"

"No! This beast must have used some Secret Technique to trick me into thinking he’s powerful, trying to scare me off! How can I let him succeed? I must kill him! Kill him!" The Big Sword Young Man said fiercely, and then the attack, which had briefly paused, was launched again. The Black Demon Fog that surged from the Black Demon Hand gathered in the palm of his hand, rapidly forming a large ball of Black Demon Fog.

The Black Demon Fog Ball continued to grow to the size of a small hill before the Big Sword Young Man hurled the ball furiously down towards Shi Feng below!

"Die! Shi Feng! You must die!" The Big Sword Young Man’s face twisted with vicious savagery as he roared with all his might towards the figure below.

His roar echoed throughout the space and naturally reached Shi Feng’s ears.

Shi Feng watched the ferocious Black Demon Fog Ball plummeting down and, with a flick of his left hand, threw the Silver Sickle spinning out!

As the Silver Sickle flew and slashed, Shi Feng had already withdrawn the Blood Armor Phantom. In an instant, the Silver Sickle struck the menacingly descending massive Black Demon Fog Ball!

"How can this be! Impossible!" At that moment, the Big Sword Young Man, who had been silently chanting about killing Shi Feng in his heart, suddenly changed color. His eyes almost popped out of their sockets as he let out an incredulous roar!

He saw his absolute assault, unleashed by his Black Demon Hand, instantly collapse under the Silver Sickle’s slash, turning into dense, rolling fog, and the Silver Sickle cut through the mist, flying straight towards his body!

"No! No! No! No! No!" The Big Sword Young Man exerted all his strength, letting out a series of unwilling roars!

At that moment, time seemed to stand still, and scenes flashed rapidly through his mind!

He did not know his birth, did not know his name. Since he had sense, he had been exiled by that man to a world of ice and snow, made to swing his sword continuously until all his energy was spent!

At four years old, he had fainted several times in the Ice Snow Land, nearly never waking up again.

At the age of six, he met that man again. That man taught him the Secret of Sword, telling him that once he fully grasped the essence of swordsmanship, he could leave the Ice Snow Land!

At the age of eight, he grasped the true essence of the Secret of the Sword, left the Ice Snow Land, and ventured into the world, defeating one swordsman after another!

During his wanderings, he happened to see a statue soaring straight up into the sky like a sharp sword, the very man he had seen in the Ice Snow Land.

From people’s mouths, he also learned this man’s name—he was called Yue Xiao, and the people of the world revered him as the Sword Emperor!

He led a life of solitude, loneliness. A life of wandering, a life of adventure, a life of battle—until that year, at the age of fourteen, he met a youth named Shi Feng! From his combat Sword Skill, he knew that he was the Inheritor of the once-strongest under these heavens, Emperor Nine Nether!

That legendary figure, even more powerful than the man from before, the Emperor Nine Nether who left behind countless legends!

Ever since he met this man, he also knew what it tasted like to fail!

How much he wanted to kill this person, how desperately he wanted it, oh how he longed... yet...

Time, which had stopped, began to flow again at this moment, and beneath the unwilling, angry, and fierce expression of the Big Sword Young Man, the Silver Sickle sliced straight down.

The Big Sword Young Man immediately felt an icy object slash from below upwards across his body, and in an instant, he felt as if his body was being torn apart, his consciousness rapidly draining away like a tide from his mind.

The Big Sword Young Man was cleaved into two by the Silver Sickle.

An Inheritor of the Sword Emperor Yue Xiao, an One-star Martial Saint Realm powerhouse, the nameless Big Sword Young Man, fell!

Upon seeing the Big Sword Young Man sliced into two parts, Shi Feng quietly observed as blood poured down from the sky, splattering onto him, but it was quickly absorbed by his flesh.

Right after that, Shi Feng once again erupted with Blood-colored Blaze, rolling towards the two parts of the corpse above.

As soon as the Blood-colored Blaze engulfed them, the Big Sword Young Man’s body was devoured by the flames, then swept back towards Shi Feng!

When all the blaze had returned to Shi Feng’s flesh, in his right hand, he held a Demon Hand still emitting a thick Demon Fog, along with a black Storage Ring.

That Demon Hand was the origin of the power the Big Sword Young man had used to invoke the Power of the Martial Emperor.

Shi Feng casually glanced into the black Storage Ring and then tossed it into his own Storage Ring. Then, with a thought, Shi Feng activated his Soul Power, attuning to the Demon Hand in his hand.

"This Black Demon Hand, similar to my current Black Demon Eye and the right index finger of the Demon, no longer harbors the residual spirit of the Demon. Perhaps he extinguished it himself, or maybe it was already gone by the time he discovered it," Shi Feng whispered to himself as his Soul Power sensed the Demon Hand.

Then, Shi Feng looked at his own left hand and said, "If I could also integrate this hand with the Demon Hand, I would surely be able to unleash a strike of a Martial Emperor. It’s worth a try!"

Thinking this, Shi Feng’s right hand burst into a wild Blood-colored Blaze, and he began to burn the Black Demon Hand in his grasp with this fiery blaze.

Shi Feng intended to do as he had done with the Black Demon Finger back in the day, first refining the Demon Hand into a black liquid!
