Chapter 674: Chapter 675: Battle of Geniuses

The Cold-faced Demon Lord still had so many cards hidden up his sleeve.

Chu Fengmian had no desire to drag things out any longer.

The War Dragon’s Claw struck once again at the Cold-faced Demon Lord, bombing him with its might.

"Good, boy, you really think you have the capability to contend with me? The power I’ve used is merely a small fraction of my strength. Your power is indeed strong, but it’s destined to fail in front of mine!"

Suddenly, an overwhelming surge of Spiritual Power enveloped the body of the Cold-faced Demon Lord.

A demonic hurricane formed, completely shrouding his figure within it.

Around this demonic hurricane, ancient runes emerged out of thin air, as if they were restrictions, simultaneously appearing with the furious roar of the Cold-faced Demon Lord.

All the runes shattered abruptly.

Upon the shattering of these runes, the aura of the Cold-faced Demon Lord surged by more than dozens of times, ominous demonic intent emanating from him.

It was as if the breaking of these runes had abruptly unlocked the shackles on the Cold-faced Demon Lord, revealing his true power.

"Life-and-Death Realm! This is the power of the Life-and-Death Realm! The Cold-faced Demon Lord has actually surpassed the great tribulation of life and death!"

"He’s kept it so deeply hidden! To think he used a secret technique to seal all this power... it turns out he had already passed the great tribulation of life and death!"

"Terrifying, the Cold-faced Demon Lord still had such power hidden! His realm, even when he was in the Divine Power Realm, was enough to compete for the title of the strongest in the Northern Domain this season. And now he has actually passed the great tribulation of life and death, his power has surged by dozens of times!"

Many onlookers, witnessing the terrifying aura of the Cold-faced Demon Lord, were utterly horrified.

At the limit of the Divine Power Realm, the Cold-faced Demon Lord had already secured the second spot on the hundred supreme list of the Northern Domain, earning him the right to challenge for the title of number one in the region.

Who would have thought that this was just a small fraction of the Cold-faced Demon Lord’s strength, and that his true power had already survived the great tribulation of life and death.

This was his real strength; the power he had displayed before was just a tip of the iceberg.

Even with a fraction of his strength, the Cold-faced Demon Lord was an absolute titan; and now that his power had surged by dozens of times.

Between the lines, people felt that the Cold-faced Demon Lord’s power was even stronger than the peak of the Life-and-Death Realm, almost reaching beyond life and death.

"What is this?"

At the stands, the venerable elder from the Skyreaching Pavilion, seeing the sudden transformation of the Cold-faced Demon Lord, had his face change in shock.

Even he seemed to not have anticipated this scene.

No wonder the Poison Hand Demon Lord spoke so confidently to the Cold-faced Demon Lord earlier; it turns out that Cold-faced Demon Lord had already surpassed the great tribulation of life and death, reaching the realm of Life-and-Death.

Such depth of concealment was beyond anyone’s imagination.

"Now it’s going to be troublesome; both of them are in the Divine Power Realm, and Chu Fengmian still has a chance to battle, but facing the Life-and-Death Realm, even with his powerful swordsmanship, reversing this tens-fold strength will be difficult."

The ancestor of Skyreaching Pavilion muttered to himself.

Beside him, the Poison Hand Demon Lord sneered continuously, looking at Chu Fengmian as if he was a dead man.

The Cold-faced Demon Lord had already displayed his true strength, leaving Chu Fengmian with only one way out - death.

"What a pity, Chu Fengmian, you were arrogant for a moment, but you didn’t anticipate, did you, that my realm had already surpassed the great tribulation of life and death, reaching the realm of Life-and-Death."

The demonic intent emanating from the Cold-faced Demon Lord presented him as a supreme demonic god, as he looked down upon Chu Fengmian, arrogantly opening his mouth to speak.

"This move, I was planning to save for the final moment to use against Lord Ye Tian; revealing it now for your sake, you should feel honored."

"Among the younger generation, you are the first to push me to this extent, but today, you’re still going to die!"

The Cold-faced Demon Lord looked at Chu Fengmian, his mouth revealing a mocking smile.

"If you commit suicide now, you can keep your whole corpse; otherwise, I’m afraid when I make my move later, not even a whole corpse will be left of you."

"Is that so?"

Chu Fengmian watched the Cold-faced Demon Lord’s arrogance, his expression remained calm.

But in the palm of his hand, the Ancestor Dragon Supreme Sword suddenly sprang forth.

Chu Fengmian spoke indifferently,

"No matter how strong you are, today, you will end up dying by my sword."

"Oblivious to death."

The Cold-faced Demon Lord scoffed.

"Today I will show you the gap between us! In my presence, you are nothing but an ant!"

As the Cold-faced Demon Lord spoke, he suddenly raised his hand.

The moment his hand was raised, a tremendous pressure swept across the entire arena.

With the power of the Cold-faced Demon Lord now, every move he made was filled with immense pressure.

"Kneel before me!"

The Cold-faced Demon Lord bellowed longingly and struck again.

His palm descended, and together with the vast pressure, it came crashing down from the sky towards Chu Fengmian.

The power of this palm felt as if one was standing before a towering mountain, insurmountably high.

Human strength seemed insignificant before this mountain.

The erupting power seemed intent on crushing a person alive.

Chu Fengmian felt this pressure and couldn’t help but smile in his heart.

Normally, it was his own might that oppressed others; he had not expected someone would try to subdue him, to make him kneel.

But Chu Fengmian was not one of those weaklings he had overpowered.

In this Nine Domains, there was no one who could suppress Chu Fengmian, neither in the past nor now.

"Sword!"

Chu Fengmian shouted sharply, and the Ancestor Dragon Supreme Sword in his hand stirred.

On the Ancestor Dragon Supreme Sword, Chu Fengmian could feel its rage; after all, it was a treasured sword of the dragon lineage, and such pressure was enough to kindle its fury.

In an instant, Chu Fengmian drew his sword.

The Sword Edge flickered, and with one slash, it violently cut through the air.

Sword Qi soared like a rainbow, shooting up into the sky, instantly extending for a thousand meters, the power it contained morphed into the shapes of ancient war dragons circling around the Sword Edge.

"Boom!"

One slash split the sky; the power of that palm was directly cleaved in half.

This seemingly ordinary slash contained power enough to split the sky.

The arena trembled, and it faintly hissed, as if under this slash, even the arena itself was on the verge of being split apart.

"Hmph! I would like to see how many more times your sword can do that!"

The Cold-faced Demon Lord looked at Chu Fengmian’s Sword Edge, his face as confidently composed as ever.

What of a strong Sword Edge?

Before absolute power, even the most astonishing Sword Dao can be crushed to dust.

He intended to use absolute power to crush Chu Fengmian’s Sword Dao.
