Supreme Sword God-Chapter 497 - 496: Even Heaven-Reaching Realm Can Be Slain!

Chapter 497: Chapter 496: Even Heaven-Reaching Realm Can Be Slain!

Ye Chen indeed had quite a bit of experience when it came to eliminating Heaven-Reaching Realm experts.

However... caution was still necessary!

Even a slight carelessness, and it would all be over.

No matter how crippled Lü Baishuang appeared, he mustn’t be underestimated.

As for those who had been briefly sacrificed in the array, though not dead, they were all unconscious and couldn’t be counted on for help.

Ye Chen wielded his sword, surrounded by the swirling Seven-Star Sword Array, with the Spiritual Power Hammer by his side.

The Little Phoenix flew alongside Ye Chen, engulfed in blazing flames.

Lü Baishuang propped himself up with his hands on the ground, raising his head to glare at Ye Chen, his eyes filled with intense malice like a demon in the dark.

"Ye Chen, you killed my adopted son, destroyed the Netherworld Blood Snake I’ve nurtured with my life for decades, and shattered my Blood Sacrifice Array. This hatred is irreconcilable!"

Lü Baishuang’s voice was shrill, his face twisted in rage.

Ye Chen raised the Celestial Mark Sword and said, "Those who court disaster will ultimately bring destruction upon themselves. Lü Baishuang, as the lord of Frost City, you kept such a vile beast, using it to lure young talents for blood sacrifice to heal your wounds. Your current fate is well-deserved!"

"Well-deserved?"

Lü Baishuang suddenly sneered, "I, Lü Baishuang, fought for the Human Race, slaying countless demons. I am a hero. My merits cannot be denied by a mere four-star True Martial Guard like you!"

Ye Chen sneered back, "At this point, why continue deceiving yourself?

From the first moment I saw you, I noticed the chaotic aura around you, all belonging to the Human Race’s blood. Furthermore, much of this blood’s aura is old and decayed.

So you’re not only using human blood this time to heal; you’ve been consuming human qi blood to train all along."

Exposed by Ye Chen, Lü Baishuang’s expression changed slightly, but then he resumed his sinister smile, "It seems my intuition was correct; when under your gaze, it felt as if my secrets were being laid bare.

Ye Chen, I must admit, you are the most outstanding young man I have ever met, bar none. Unfortunately... today, you will die by my hand.

Your talent is so exceptional; perhaps you also possess some special constitution, ha ha ha! Maybe devouring your qi blood will restore me completely!

Once you’re dead... all these people will die too. By then, who will know about my deeds?

You will all become heroes who sacrificed to solve Frost City’s crisis.

And I will still be the respected lord of Frost City!" 𝙛𝒓𝓮𝙚𝔀𝒆𝒃𝓷𝒐𝓿𝙚𝓵.𝙘𝒐𝒎

With these words.

Lü Baishuang suddenly slammed his hands against the ground.

"Boom!"

The ground trembled, and a powerful force surged through it, heading straight toward Ye Chen!

Ye Chen leaped swiftly into the air.

The force from the ground transformed into a massive Netherworld Blood Snake, opening its bloody maw to swallow Ye Chen!

The Little Phoenix flapped its wings, sending Phoenix Flames cascading down into the snake’s mouth.

In an instant.

Lü Baishuang’s force-formed Netherworld Blood Snake was incinerated to nothingness!

"A divine Phoenix?"

Lü Baishuang’s expression tightened, and then madness appeared on his face.

"Ha ha ha, heaven is indeed with me, Ye Chen! Your qi blood must be delectable, and with the divine Phoenix, once the blood ceremony succeeds, not only will my injuries heal, I shall break my limits and gain even greater power!"

Lü Baishuang slammed the ground again, propelling himself explosively toward Ye Chen!

Ye Chen moved with a thought.

The Spiritual Power Hammer slammed forth mightily, and the Seven-Star Sword Array whistled out.

Lü Baishuang launched a punch.

Regardless of the Spiritual Power Hammer or Ye Chen’s Seven-Star Sword Array, his power scattered them effortlessly!

"A mere ant trying to shake a tree, even at a tenth of my strength, you are no match for me!" Lü Baishuang roared, appearing before Ye Chen, thrusting a hand aimed at Ye Chen’s face.

Ye Chen’s eyes flashed brightly, activating his pupil strength, setting an illusion.

Though he didn’t expect the illusion to have much effect on someone of Lü Baishuang’s caliber, even a moment’s delay was enough for Ye Chen.

Just as Ye Chen anticipated, Lü Baishuang’s movements stalled for a brief instant, during which Ye Chen used the Vertical Earth Golden Light to escape Lü Baishuang’s attack range.

Lü Baishuang’s hand crushed a phantom of Ye Chen, and a sharp whistling filled his ears!

"Swish!"

Standing to Lü Baishuang’s side, Ye Chen struck with a sword, Cyan Dragon sword qi emerging.

The Little Phoenix unleashed a gust of Phoenix Flames, augmenting the power of Ye Chen’s sword.

Dragon and Phoenix appeared together!

Panic surged in Lü Baishuang’s heart, as raw power enveloped him.

"Boom!"

The Dragon-Phoenix Sword Qi shattered the hastily gathered power of Lü Baishuang, yet Ye Chen was also blown away by the colossal backlash.

Lü Baishuang roared fiercely, charging toward Ye Chen again.

But Ye Chen stabilized his flight with force from his waist and abdomen, refusing to evade, unleashing concentrated Sword Qi, while simultaneously charging at Lü Baishuang with his sword!

"Die!"

"Die!"

Both shouted almost simultaneously.

Enormous force gathered on Lü Baishuang’s palm, he further risked his wounds, unleashing a power beyond his current physical limits.

While on Ye Chen’s sword, the Dragon-Phoenix illusion reappeared!

Just as their powers were about to collide, Ye Chen’s figure suddenly vanished!

Lü Baishuang’s eyes widened!

Subsequently, Ye Chen appeared beside a Sword Qi trail, behind Lü Baishuang, and that trail of Dragon-Phoenix Sword Qi landed solidly on Lü Baishuang’s back with overwhelming might.

This marked a major breakthrough in the Instant Void Swordsmanship.

Previously, Ye Chen could do nothing while traversing the spatial rifts.

But this time, he unleashed Dragon-Phoenix Sword Qi before diving into the spatial rift.

This change saved Ye Chen time, allowing him to strike immediately upon exiting the rift, without needing to gather strength.

Though such a time-saving was momentary.

In a clash of great warriors, a moment can change everything.

Without saving that moment, even Lü Baishuang in a near-death condition could definitely have reacted!

"Boom!"

Blasted by a solid Dragon-Phoenix Sword Qi strike from Ye Chen, Lü Baishuang was lifted by the fearsome force.

"Phoenix Dance of Nine Heavens!"

The Little Phoenix lightly voiced, invoking a legacy technique of the Phoenix Race.

Torrents of Phoenix Flames morphed into Phoenix illusions, bombarding the airborne Lü Baishuang.

"Boom boom boom!"

Tremendous explosions resounded continuously, shaking mountains and forests, and the darkness was completely illuminated by firelight!

"Ah ah ah!"

"I won’t die, how could you ants kill me!"

His body cracked and charred, Lü Baishuang screamed, charging out of the inferno.

Ye Chen dashed forward intensely, slicing with a sword, extreme cold erupting from the Snow Spirit Sword Technique, Thousand-Mile Ice Seal!

A layer of frost spread, freezing Lü Baishuang’s body.

"Whoosh whoosh whoosh!"

The seven top-grade spiritual swords scattered on the ground whistled forth, puncturing Lü Baishuang’s body with holes!

"Boom boom boom!"

The Spiritual Power Hammer reappeared, pounding Lü Baishuang until he was bleeding profusely.

"Zizi, one more time!" Ye Chen shouted!

The Little Phoenix promptly spewed flames again.

Once more, Ye Chen slashed out a Dragon-Phoenix Sword Qi, reducing Lü Baishuang to pieces!
