Divine King of Honour-Chapter 720: Slaughter to Prove the Tao
"Big talk that you can't back up! Die!"
Red-Eyed let out a furious roar.
Then he swung his giant axe toward Xu Nian.
As the giant axe swung, the tremendous Axe Light split the seawater apart.
Creating a huge arc of rainbow, it cleaved towards Xu Nian.
The crowd around showed shock on their faces.
With a single axe strike, even the seawater was directly cleaved apart.
The Sea Demons around also showed surprise.
The power of this axe strike was simply beyond their ability to contend with.
Lie Tian's expression was also grave.
Red-Eyed's strength was not much different from his own.
He wouldn't dare to easily intercept such an axe strike.
However, Xu Nian just chuckled softly.
Looking at the Axe Light that was cleaving towards him,
he casually swung his sword.
"Boom!"
The Sword Radiance flew past, instantly shattering the dazzling Axe Light.
"Such a casual sword strike, and it broke through?" the surrounding Sea Demons exclaimed in surprise.
Lie Tian was also taken aback.
Xu Nian had just so easily neutralized the move.
This Red-Eyed was a Pseudo Void Level Supreme Battle Emperor just like him.
The power of his attacks was naturally imaginable.
Yet, it was so easily neutralized by Xu Nian's casual sword strike.
Seeing this scene, Red-Eyed's eyes also revealed surprise.
But soon, a hint of rage flashed through his eyes.
"Seeking death!"
Red-Eyed bellowed, this time directly rushing forward in his figure.
He intended to completely split the human before him in half.
The giant axe in his hand was extraordinarily heavy.
Each weighed a colossal five hundred thousand pounds.
He didn't believe the human before him could withstand his giant axe's attack.
However, Xu Nian chuckled lightly again.
"You'll be the first spirit to fall under my Three Thousand God-Slaying Technique."
Xu Nian's eyes flashed coldly.
Following that, the sharp sword in his hand transformed into a streak of afterimage.
"Pu-chi!"
Xu Nian's Immortal Sword instantly streaked through the seawater, blood spurting out.
Red-Eyed's eyes widened, hardly believing that all this was real.
However, the sword wound on his neck gradually widened, eventually leading to a severed head.
His life came to a definitive end.
And the giant axe in his hand was also cleanly broken into two halves.
"So... so fast!"
The surrounding Sea Demons were all shocked beyond measure.
Xu Nian's sword strike was just too quick.
So quick that they could not react in time, and Red-Eyed was killed.
Lie Tian, standing behind Xu Nian, was also startled.
He was certain that if he were to face that sword strike, he would no doubt meet his death.
From a distance, the Shark Emperor, watching Red-Eyed's corpse, had an even gloomier look in his eyes.
However, Xu Nian stood proudly with his sword, his aura even stronger than before.
Indeed, this was the effect of the Three Thousand God-Slaying Technique.
Killing to steal momentum!
The more he killed, the stronger his momentum became.
When Xu Nian slaughtered a million, his momentum would reach an unparalleled height.
By then, not to mention a Pseudo Heavenly Phenomenon Realm Supreme Battle Emperor, even a true Zifu Cultivator, he would dare to battle.
And all of this without the slightest side effect.
"On him, now! Whoever kills him, I'll let him take Red-Eyed's place," ordered the Shark Emperor immediately.
Those Sea Demon Beasts from the Shark Clan's eyes turned scarlet in an instant.
All of them surged towards Xu Nian.
Red-Eyed's position was that of the Ten Great Generals!
Once one became a General of the Shark Clan, they held not only an exalted status,
but also an abundance of Cultivation Resources and the affections of beauties from the Shark Clan; wasn't that all within reach?
So these Sea Demons charged at Xu Nian like mad, cacophonous and countless.
Seeing this scene, Xu Nian's eyes revealed a hint of amusement.
"Perfect timing!" Xu Nian thought as the Shark Clan's army lost its mind—this was his opportunity. Otherwise, had the Shark Clan's army used ranged combined attacks, then Xu Nian would have truly been unable to resist.
"Kill!" The army of the Shark Clan charged.
A fierce light surged in Xu Nian's eyes. His sword danced in his hand like rain.
"Ptui!" The leading three Sea Demons were immediately cleaved in two by Xu Nian's sword.
"Swoosh! Swoosh! Swoosh!" Xu Nian swung his sword again. Each swing of his sword took at least three lives.
For a moment, the Sea Demons kept coming, one after another. However, none could get within ten meters of Xu Nian.
Any Demon Beast that came close died miserably under Xu Nian's sword. In just a few breaths' time, the area around was littered with limbs and body parts.
The bright red blood dyed a vast expanse of the sea. The thick smell of blood permeated the entire sea area.
"One thousand three hundred forty-eight, one thousand three hundred fifty-two!" Xu Nian swung his sword more and more valiantly.
His sword in hand became like the scythe of the Death God, constantly reaping the lives of the Sea Demons.
Regardless of whether they were Demon King Level, Demon Saint Level, or Demon Emperor Level. Under Xu Nian's sword, it all took just one stroke.
Lie Tian, from a distance, saw the bodies of Sea Demons continuously falling and revealed a look of immense surprise on his face.
This method of slaughter was something he could achieve too, but he definitely couldn't keep fighting more and more vigorously like Xu Nian.
At most, he could maintain this kind of high-intensity battle for a few 15-minute intervals. Once time passed, the spiritual energy inside his body would be completely drained.
At that point, death was the only path waiting for him.
However, right now, not only did Xu Nian's cultivation not show the slightest sign of decline, but the spiritual energy within his body seemed to become even more abundant.
"Hum!" Xu Nian's cultivation even began to soar. He directly reached the Peak of the Ninth Level Battle Emperor and even showed signs of breaking through to the Zifu Realm.
His aura became increasingly terrifying. That killing intent, amassed together, was like a peerless Killing God descending to earth, involuntarily arousing a chilling fear in people's hearts.
"Hum!" Xu Nian slashed out with his sword again.
"Ptui!" Nearly thirty Demon Beasts fell dead on the spot.
The Sea Demons surrounding him were completely stunned. At the start, Xu Nian's sword could only claim the lives of three or four Sea Demons.
Now, just one stroke had already taken more than thirty lives. All this in just the span of 15 minutes.
The number of Sea Demons that had died had already reached over a hundred thousand.
The key was that this young man showed no signs of exhaustion.
"How... How is this possible?" The Sea Demons around were too scared to advance any further.
This young man in front of them was just too bizarre, too terrifying.
The more he killed, the more ferocious he became. If this kept up, their million-strong army would be slaughtered, and this young man wouldn't have the slightest problem.
The Nine Great Generals and the Shark Emperor in the distance also furrowed their brows.
This young man in front of them was truly strange. The more he killed, the braver he became. Now even they were thrilled by the murderous aura on him.
"Interesting, I didn't expect this lad to have such a trick up his sleeve—using killing intent to enhance cultivation. The more he kills, the stronger his cultivation and momentum become. If he continues like this, he might really break through to the Zifu Realm," Xuan Hong couldn't help but speak in admiration.
He had not expected Xu Nian to possess such a terrifying Secret Technique of Slaughter. Such a powerful technique was simply tailor-made for an assassin.
Hearing Xuan Hong's words, Lie Tian next to him was also flabbergasted. Cultivation through slaughter—did such a bizarre and fearsome method of cultivation truly exist in this world?
