CHAPTER 202: CHAPTER 202: NOT NECESSARILY

"Ye Xingyun!"

Dongfang He shouted in panic and anger.

One person said in extreme fear, "What... what kind of Sword Technique is he using? How could it possibly severely injure someone at the Late Stage of Nascent Soul with just one sword?"

"Such terrifying and captivating momentum, and this kind of horrible power, could it be an Immortal Technique?" Dongfang He was filled with fear.

Dongfang He’s strength was on par with Ye Xingyun’s, and since the latter couldn’t withstand Gu Chenfeng’s sword, he naturally didn’t think he could either.

If they hadn’t seen it with their own eyes, they wouldn’t have believed that Gu Chenfeng could slay someone at the Late Stage of Nascent Soul as easily as killing a chicken.

The terrifying power of this sword would make even strong practitioners at the Early Stage of Soul Emergence wary.

At this moment.

They looked at Gu Chenfeng with eyes as if looking at a demon.

Is this really the realm of the Late Stage of Golden Core?

His cold and bloodthirsty eyes swept slightly towards Dongfang He and another, and Gu Chenfeng said coldly, "It’s your turn now."

Just a single glance scared Dongfang He and the other man’s heart to beat wildly.

Yet, Gu Chenfeng’s words also ignited their fury.

The disdain from a Golden Core Stage youth was undoubtedly a great humiliation to those at the Nascent Soul Stage.

"Arrogant brat!" Dongfang He snarled with extreme ferocity, his fists clenching tightly. He said viciously and angrily, "Don’t think you’re remarkable for killing Ye Xingyun; I’ll soon show you the consequences of arrogance!"

As his angry voice fell, Dongfang He fully mobilized his Water Attribute Spiritual Power, his whole body igniting with a blue flame, and the powerful momentum erupted once more.

Dongfang He made a hand seal with his left hand and frantically infused Spiritual Power into the Spirit Sword with his right. A blue formation quickly gathered behind him, and terrifying power surged out.

There was no doubt Dongfang He intended to unleash his trump card.

The Spirit Sword sliced across his palm as Dongfang He sacrificed his Essence Blood, a more terrible power erupted, and his aura instantly skyrocketed.

In the blink of an eye, Dongfang He’s Spiritual Power had surged to the peak of the Late Stage of Nascent Soul.

This was Dongfang He’s peak strength.

"Master, be careful. His aura has almost stepped into the Soul Emergence Stage," the Ice Phoenix warned through voice transmission, a hint of terrifying cold light flashing in her beautiful eyes.

If Gu Chenfeng faced danger, the Ice Phoenix would make Dongfang He vanish in an instant.

However.

Faced with Dongfang He utilizing Essence Blood, Gu Chenfeng’s expression did not change in the slightest, nor did his eyes show any panic or fear.

In Gu Chenfeng’s eyes, Dongfang He was already a cold corpse.

"Zhang Qing! Trap him! I need some time!" Dongfang He shouted angrily while frantically accumulating power, his aura growing more terrifying.

Gu Chenfeng replied expressionlessly, "No need to hurry, I’ll wait for you."

"Arrogant brat!" Dongfang He growled fiercely like a vengeful tiger, wishing to devour Gu Chenfeng whole.

"Soul-Catching Tower! Shake!" Zhang Qing suppressed his fear, then shouted angrily, quickly summoning a Black Tower and directly throwing it toward Gu Chenfeng.

The Black Tower rapidly expanded to several dozen feet in size.

"You think a mere Spiritual Artifact can trap me?" Gu Chenfeng said coldly, his left hand forming a Sword Point in the air, unleashing terrifying Ice Attribute Spiritual Power.

The gigantic Black Tower, just a few meters away from Gu Chenfeng, was forcibly stopped by the domineering ice attribute.

The next second.

The terrifying Ice Attribute Spiritual Power rapidly froze the massive Black Tower at a speed visible to the naked eye.

"Oh no! The Soul-Catching Tower has lost control!" Zhang Qing’s expression changed drastically, panic seizing him, "What kind of Ice Attribute is this? It can freeze my Lifebound Magical Treasure!"

"Break!" Gu Chenfeng coldly shouted, his Sword Point forming a tight fist.

"Crack!"

The frozen massive Black Tower disintegrated instantly under Zhang Qing’s extremely terrified gaze.

That’s right!

The Spiritual Artifact shattered!

"Pfft!"

With his Lifebound Magical Treasure destroyed, Zhang Qing spat a mouthful of blood.

"This... how is this possible..." Zhang Qing was dumbfounded on the spot, his soul frightened out of its wits.

The Soul-Catching Tower was at least a High Grade Spiritual Artifact, how could it be destroyed so easily?

"You’re too weak!" Gu Chenfeng’s cold, chilling voice suddenly rang in Zhang Qing’s ear.

Zhang Qing was violently shocked, a tremendously intense fear surged through his entire body, his throat seemed caught by a blade, and he wanted to cry for help but couldn’t say a word.

At this moment.

Zhang Qing was in despair!

He didn’t even dare to turn his head to look at the silently appearing Gu Chenfeng.

For the first time, he felt such a clear aura of death.

"Swoosh!"

Gu Chenfeng mercilessly unleashed a sword strike, sealing his throat with one slash.

Zhang Qing shuddered all over, his gaze of despair and terror gradually dimmed, and his body fell down.

Gu Chenfeng’s domineering Ice Attribute Spiritual Power then shattered his Nascent Soul.

The four Nascent Soul Stage powerhouses of the Myriad Swords Sect were all dead.

Now only Dongfang He remained.

Dongfang He witnessed the process of Zhang Qing being killed, and Gu Chenfeng’s frighteningly silent Body Technique made Dongfang He extremely fearful.

Dongfang He no longer had any retreat.

The Heaven-Slaying Sword pointed straight at Dongfang Qing, and Gu Chenfeng said coldly, "No need to rush, take your time to gather power."

"Gu Chenfeng! If you dare, take this!" Dongfang He roared menacingly, then bellowed: "Celestial Technique! Creation Celestial Spirit Slash!"

"Swoosh!"

"Buzz buzz!"

Dongfang He swept his sword horizontally, and a massive blue Energy Slash several tens of feet wide shot out with overwhelming force, carrying a piercing sonic boom, causing the space to shudder and roil violently wherever it passed.

The power of Dongfang He’s sword slash was utterly terrifying.

Facing the terrifying Energy Slash coming his way, Gu Chenfeng replied nonchalantly, "Is this your strongest Sword Technique?"

Speaking.

Gu Chenfeng fully mobilized his ice attribute infusion into the Heaven-Slaying Sword, with a surge of dozens of white light beams entwining around them, a surging Sword Intent soaring into the sky, and a domineering, captivating ice cold storm rolling in.

"Heaven-Annihilating Godslaying Sword!" Gu Chenfeng shouted coldly, sweeping a sword horizontally.

"Swoosh!"

"Buzz buzz!"

A massive white Sword Aura, several tens of feet wide, shot forth with the might to destroy the heavens and the earth, freezing the space along its path, giving an impression of invincibility.

The power of Gu Chenfeng’s sword was likewise incredibly terrifying.

However.

Compared to Dongfang He, although Gu Chenfeng’s Sword Aura was exceedingly domineering, it was a half tier weaker.

"Boom!"

"Pfft!"

The two terrifying forces collided fiercely, resulting in a shocking explosion, with the energy waves from the collision rolling unchecked. Gu Chenfeng was shaken to the point of coughing up a mouthful of blood.

Even though he could suppress Dongfang He’s water attribute and wield terrifying Divine Techniques, he still couldn’t match Dongfang He’s strength boosted by Essence Blood.

Gu Chenfeng’s sword only reached the power of the Late Stage of Nascent Soul.

Dongfang He’s sword had already approached the level of the Soul Emergence Stage.

The power gap was huge.

"Master!" The Ice Phoenix grasped her Jade Fist tightly, her beautiful eyes filled with cold and bloodthirsty intent.

Seeing Gu Chenfeng spit blood, Dongfang He felt utterly relieved in his heart, immediately giving a derisive smirk: "That’s all? Is this your limit? Forcing me to this point, you’re indeed remarkable, but it’s a pity this is the end for you."

"That’s not necessarily so!" Gu Chenfeng said coldly, then forcibly activated the Devouring Power and subsequently shouted, "Devour!"
