Chapter 1048 - 1047: Rampaging Bingshuang
Chen Tianlong struggled to suppress his body, as he was rapidly recovering his strength and Powerful Qi.
Although he could feel a strange Powerful Qi fluctuation from Li Bingshuang, it clearly wasn’t the real her. Perhaps there was some special constitution hidden in Li Bingshuang’s body that suddenly appeared when she encountered danger.
He remembered that in the past, he experienced his own power running wild, even unleashing Profound Dao-level power despite only possessing Yellow Dao-level strength at the time.
Therefore, the scene earlier surprised Chen Tianlong immensely. The most astonishing part was why all metal weapons were attracted to her berserk body like a powerful magnet.
The Dragon Slayer Sword he was gripping tightly was nearly snatched away. Fortunately, Chen Tianlong reacted swiftly, forcefully holding onto it with his Powerful Qi. Even with his immense grip strength, he almost lost his hold.
As the dust settled, the ground was a mess. Li Bingshuang regained consciousness after being hit by the shockwave, noticing Chen Tianlong’s bleeding hand. Concerned, she approached him and asked, "Chen Tianlong, are you alright? Both of your hands are bleeding."
If she wasn’t his daughter, she might have wanted to tear off a large piece of her clothing to bandage Chen Tianlong, but she couldn’t do that as it would expose her.
"Haha, a little bleeding is fine, it’s healthy."
Seeing Li Bingshuang worry about him touched Chen Tianlong deeply. However, he was quickly activating Heart Method, and the bleeding would soon stop. Indeed, he could stop the bleeding by sealing the acupoints himself.
However, he couldn’t let it be known that he could recover his strength, Powerful Qi, and heal himself quickly, as this would lead to another attack on him.
At this moment, Xiao Jianteng was already standing opposite him, and after a bit of Qi Cultivation, he returned to normal. The earlier confrontation was evidently a tie. Even Li Bingshuang didn’t know what had just happened.
"This woman’s strength is quite impressive, unexpected. But for me, it’s nothing. Chen Tianlong, you’d better hand over the Dragon Slayer Sword peacefully, and there’ll be no trouble."
Xiao Jianteng continued to threaten.
Chen Tianlong frowned deeply. Even if he regained his strength, he might not gain the upper hand. Continuing to fight, the sword would eventually be snatched away.
The two brothers from the Sword Family were obviously injured. Even if they forced cooperation, they would not have the previous power. Moreover, Xiao Jianteng had already figured out how to counter their Sword Array, rendering it useless.
In the midst of anxiety, Li Bingshuang suddenly shouted, "Chen Tianlong, the sword in your hand... it seems to be absorbing blood. It’s terrifying!"
Upon hearing Li Bingshuang’s exclamation, Chen Tianlong quickly looked at his hand and was stunned. He hastily tried to shake off the Dragon Slayer Sword, only to find it stuck to his hand like a magnet, continuously absorbing his blood.
Soon, the scabbard of the Dragon Slayer Sword began to turn blood red, and suddenly, the Dragon Slayer Sword shot up into the air as if injected with adrenaline, beginning to fly.
Xiao Jianteng was immediately overjoyed; this was clearly the activation of the Dragon Slayer Sword. He swiftly took a leap forward, aiming to snatch the treasure sword.
But how could Chen Tianlong let him succeed? He swiftly dodged and lunged, seizing the Dragon Slayer Sword. At this moment, the sword emitted a red glow as if it had found its owner.
"The Divine Artifact is unsealed, unlimited power."
Jian Wuming remembered this phrase from an old book.
Chen Tianlong watched Xiao Jianteng charging over and urgently drew the Dragon Slayer Sword. Immediately, a Sword Qi followed, revealing a glowing orange light sword before Chen Tianlong’s eyes.
"Wow, is this really the Dragon Slayer Sword?"
Chen Tianlong could hardly believe the disparity was so great.
Seeing Xiao Jianteng already at close range, Chen Tianlong hurriedly swung the sword, thrusting it towards Xiao Jianteng.
Xiao Jianteng initially didn’t think much of it, but when the orange Sword Qi approached, he dodged anxiously, getting a slash on his cheek from the fierce Sword Qi, causing a tingling sensation and bleeding.
"Wow, Sword Qi can draw blood. This truly is a Divine Artifact," Xiao Jianteng was very excited, his determination to seize the sword further strengthened.
Seeing the powerful Dragon Slayer Sword, Chen Tianlong began to grow bold. With the Dragon Slayer Sword in hand, he became much more confident.
"Dragon Slayer Sword, if you have a spirit, please allow us to achieve Unity of Man and Sword to deal with this arrogant boy." Chen Tianlong whispered to the Dragon Slayer Sword.
At this moment, the orange glow from the Dragon Slayer Sword became even more prominent. Chen Tianlong tightly gripped the Dragon Slayer Sword, his internal Powerful Qi nearly restored.
He started rapidly activating Heart Method, intending to give Xiao Jianteng a harsh lesson.
Chen Tianlong suddenly recalled something: his Flaming Frenzy Dragon Fist is meant to attack with the fist. If he could wield it like the Third Elder with a sword, wouldn’t the attack power become even stronger? After all, a fist is far less effective than cutting through iron like mud with the Dragon Slayer Sword.
With this thought, Chen Tianlong held a trial attitude. He tightly grasped the Dragon Slayer Sword with his right hand, then began gathering strength, preparing to try the first move of the Flaming Frenzy Dragon Fist.
Ha!
Chen Tianlong released a move into the air beside him and immediately rejoiced, for he realized that when the Frenzied Dragon Fist was unleashed, it wasn’t just his fist, but also the sword in his hand that struck.
This meant that the final contact with the opponent would not be his fist, but the tip of the Dragon Slayer Sword, and the power would be immense.
Earlier, Chen Tianlong also noticed that even without exerting any power, the Sword Qi of the Dragon Slayer Sword could harm Xiao Jianteng, let alone when enhanced by the power of the Frenzied Dragon Fist.
"Are you spewing nonsense, Chen Tianlong?"
Watching the move Chen Tianlong released earlier, Xiao Jianteng began to mock. Indeed, the first move of the Frenzied Dragon Fist seemed trivial to Xiao Jianteng, lacking significant destructive power, "Quickly toss the Dragon Slayer Sword over here, and I’ll spare you."
After speaking, Xiao Jianteng began to activate Qi Cultivation, ready to use his ultimate skill, the Fierce Dragon Slash from the Sword Dao Sect, which once dominated the realm as one of the highest martial techniques in the Sword Dao category.
Over the years, powerhouses in the Sword Dao trembled at the mention of Fierce Dragon Slash.
"Oh, let’s see what you’ve got, stop blabbering all day, it’s so annoying." Inspired by the first move of the Frenzied Dragon Fist, Chen Tianlong suddenly had more confidence.
Although the power of the Frenzied Dragon Fist combined with the Dragon Slayer Sword didn’t seem much greater than before, Chen Tianlong knew it had significantly increased. The pressure point of the attack and qualitative leap assuredly could swiftly penetrate Xiao Jianteng’s Powerful Qi layer, despite its strength.
"Hmph, you dare be so arrogant, thinking that holding the Dragon Slayer Sword makes you unbeatable? Below the Celestial Dao’s five stars, don’t dream of breaking my Powerful Qi protection layer."
Xiao Jianteng remembered his father’s words: their Powerful Qi layer, when vigilant, couldn’t be breached by a weaker opponent, so Xiao Jianteng wasn’t worried at all.
