Compared to Ashida Ikeda, Lu Tianxing’s True Qi, on the other hand, became increasingly formidable in each collision. Although this change was extremely subtle and might go unnoticed with only slight negligence, Ashida Ikeda could feel that Lu Tianxing’s strength was undergoing an earth-shattering transformation. Once Lu Tianxing stepped into the Late Stage of Mythical, he would indeed become terrifyingly ruthless, almost reaching a state of invincibility.

"Swish!"

Another slash shattered a spear light, and Ashida Ikeda took a deep breath, slowly saying, "Third Young Master of the Lu Family, this is the end. The blade momentum has been fully formed. Today, I’ll let you witness what is truly the Godslayer One Strike."

The words floated softly as Ashida Ikeda slowly retracted his blade and stood still, his imposing aura erupting like a mountain or sea.

"Finally, it has come."

Lu Tianxing also didn’t choose to attack; instead, he suddenly retreated, then stood in mid-air, his expression extremely grave. The True Qi around him surged to the peak in an instant, as he concentrated all his attention on Ashida Ikeda.

At this moment, Ashida Ikeda was fully in an invincible state, with blade intent crisscrossing all around. If Lu Tianxing dared to trespass at this moment, there was a high chance he would be slain on the spot. Even if he miraculously survived, he would likely be severely injured by the rampant blade intent.

"Killing God... "

A voice filled with a low growl came out of nowhere.

Ashida Ikeda’s eyes turned blood-red as he suddenly raised the blade in his hands high up. His entire demeanor changed in an instant; his aura turned into that of a Demon God from Hell, filled with cries of agony, and the blade aura became bizarre and sinister, exuding an intimidating chill as if a blade hovered over one’s neck.

The bright moon in the sky seemed to be shrouded by dark clouds at this moment, while the omnipresent killing intent pierced through to the bone. The katana, entirely formed by condensed snow, was now tainted with a layer of Hell’s aura. This aura imprisoned the entire space, leaving Lu Tianxing feeling an inescapable dread, forcing him to take the strike head-on.

"One Strike... "

Suddenly, Ashida Ikeda vanished, as if he crossed through time and space. His figure abruptly appeared beside Lu Tianxing, and a blade sliced through the air, tearing through everything, taking lives.

At that moment, Lu Tianxing felt entirely shackled, even his True Qi frozen, unable to think. He could only watch helplessly as the strike descended upon him, as if everything about him was under Ashida Ikeda’s control, leaving him at the mercy of his opponent.

This one strike sealed the heavens and locked the earth. Under its might, all living beings were silenced, thus regarded as the Godslayer One Strike.

In a flash, the Creation Source Technique violently shook, like a morning bell and evening drum, awakening Lu Tianxing once more. The spear in his hand was wielded freely; Fenghuo Spear Technique and Gale Force erupted, bringing earth-shattering power, colliding with Ashida Ikeda’s blade.

"Boom!" "Boom!" "Boom!"

A series of explosions rang out of nowhere; the surrounding snow was lifted layer by layer, spreading in all directions like an apocalypse.

The spear and katana clashed, and in an instant, they were like a storm, with thousands of attacks colliding. After the spear clashed thousands of times, it instantly shattered. The Godslayer One Strike, which fell, directly struck the Creation God Tripod, attempting to shatter it completely and kill Lu Tianxing.

But the intense collision had consumed most of its power, insufficient to crush the Creation God Tripod. The katana struck it, only causing it to crack, but unable to harm Lu Tianxing.

"Slash!"

Ashida Ikeda roared, his eyes shining brightly, True Qi inside him surging like a tide as if countless demons awakened. It crazily channeled into the katana, making it appear like a celestial river, bringing heavenly power, and suppressing again.

Godslayer One Strike, a strike to exterminate demons and gods.

Ashida Ikeda believed that when he fully unleashed his power, even the monstrous Lu Tianxing could not escape death; Lu Tianxing’s end was a dead-end, for he couldn’t withstand the strike that could kill gods and demons.

This strike’s fearsome might slaughtered gods and demons.

This strike’s horror shattered the firmament.

As the blade descended, it seemed to possess a soul-stirring force, holding Lu Tianxing in place. Under this strike, all defenses and evasions seemed laughably pathetic, leaving only the choice to brace it head-on.

"Crack!"

The blade light flickered, and the blade momentum was sharp. With a cracking sound, the cracks on the Creation God Tripod grew larger as blade intent seeped in, aiming to pierce Lu Tianxing’s body, severing all his chances of survival.

Ashida Ikeda’s eyes emitted a dazzling light, and his smile grew thicker as though envisioning Lu Tianxing being cleaved in two by him.

But as the katana was about to shatter the Creation God Tripod, its light burst forth once more, consolidating with a crunching sound. The entire tripod seemed to solidify into reality, and an immense force erupted, causing the originally snow-formed katana to shatter into nothingness. Simultaneously, a powerful counterforce erupted.

This intense counterforce surged directly into Ashida Ikeda, hurling him out, blood gushing from his mouth without end, splattering on the ground, appearing especially shocking.

Ashida Ikeda glared at Lu Tianxing, eyes filled with a committed, unforgettable killing intent, yet he was helpless. Just as he was about to slay Lu Tianxing, the scorching True Qi left by Cangwu in his body uncontrollably erupted, rampaging inside him, rendering all his efforts futile.

After one strike sent Ashida Ikeda flying, Lu Tianxing took a deep breath, a hint of pallor crossing his face. Without hesitation, he stepped forward, his five fingers spreading to form a large hand, seizing Ashida Ikeda once again. His fingers gripped around his neck, and powerful True Qi instantly controlled Ashida Ikeda’s Dantian, leaving him immobile.

"Ashida Ikeda, you’ve lost," Lu Tianxing said, staring coldly at Ashida Ikeda.
