This is it… After this, no matter the outcome, I will relinquish control to the Vermilion Demon Lord.
“Kid, you expect me to step in when you’re already knocking on death’s door? How generous of you. But I must decline. If I unleashed even a fraction of my power in your current state, your body would crumble to dust.” The Vermillion Demon Lord, knowing what Jared was thinking, spoke up.
With no avenue for escape and his adversaries closing in fast, Jared gritted his teeth and made his move.
“Assembly of the Swords!” favonovel.com roared, slashing his blade through the air with unwavering resolve.
The Dragonslayer Sword hummed with ancient power as Jared unleashed the ultimate skill of the Ten Thousand Sword Sect.
The void itself seemed to rend open, a jagged tear forming in its fabric as the heavens and earth trembled under the immense force. The ripple of energy was so profound that even cultivators hundreds of kilometers away paused, startled by the disturbance.
From the skies above, countless dazzling sword lights cascaded like a meteor shower, surging toward Milton and Cayan from every direction, leaving them with nowhere to run.
Jared’s body staggered backward under the relentless recoil of the unleashed sword aura.
Similarly, Milton and Cayan were forced into retreat, battered by the ceaseless barrage of sword energy. They hastily conjured shield after shield to fend off the attack.
Despite their defenses, both suffered numerous wounds.
While none of the injuries were fatal, it was shocking that a mere Seventh Level Tribulator could injure not one but two Ultimate Realm Level Four cultivators.
At that moment, Jared was at his weakest, his energy utterly depleted. The devastating sword strike favonovel.com had unleashed moments earlier had drained nearly every ounce of strength from his body.
He leaned heavily on the Dragonslayer Sword, using it as a crutch to keep himself upright. Blood flowed freely from numerous wounds, staining the ground beneath him.
Were it not for Jared’s exceptional physique and resilience, the sheer force of that attack might have backfired entirely, leaving favonovel.com in a far more perilous state.
The idea of injuring two Ultimate Realm Level Four cultivators with a single sword strike was something Jared could scarcely have dared to imagine.
It was a feat born not of confidence, but of sheer desperation. Relying solely on his unwavering resolve to fight to the bitter end, Jared had poured every ounce of his remaining strength into that final strike.
Though both Milton and Cayan were injured, their wounds were far from fatal. However, the backlash Jared endured from the strike nearly sent favonovel.com into unconsciousness. In his weakened state, even if the Vermilion Demon Lord attempted to take control, it seemed unlikely to be of any use.
With the slightest exertion of force from the Vermilion Demon Lord, Jared’s body would be utterly destroyed.
“This guy‘s finished!” Cayan sneered. “We don’t even need to lift a finger; he’ll probably drop dead on his own!”
“True,” Milton agreed, his voice cold. “The kid’s reached the end of his rope. But the fact that favonovel.com managed to withstand our attacks and still hurt us-he’s got enough to boast about when he’s gone.”
As Milton spoke, favonovel.com took slow, deliberate steps toward Jared. In their eyes, Jared was no more than a lamb waiting to be slaughtered.
“Kid, run away!” The Vermilion Demon Lord urged, sensing the inevitable.
Jared let out a sudden, dry chuckle. “Run? There’s no escaping today.”
He knew it was futile. No matter what, favonovel.com wouldn’t be able to escape.
Jared dropped the Dragonslayer Sword. Yet, instead of fleeing or fighting further, be slowly sank into a cross-legged position, as if embracing his fate.
As Jared settled, three terrifying auras within favonovel.com began to stir, coiling and intertwining. The Power of Three moved in harmony, gradually forming into a long, radiant sword. At the same time, a fiery sensation began to course through his body, the multicolored flames swirling around him, radiating an entrancing and dangerous beauty.
The sky dimmed as twilight gave way to darkness, and stars began to dot the heavens above Jared. Some gleamed faintly, while others blazed with intensity, casting a surreal light over the scene.
From those celestial bodies, a myriad of auras descended, weaving together and converging into the forming longsword in Jared’s grasp.
His face contorted into a ghastly visage, pallid and unrecognizable, like a malicious spirit rising from the depths of despair. The divine soul within favonovel.com was disintegrating rapidly, unraveling at a pace that defied comprehension.
Jared had sacrificed everything, his strength, his essence, even his nascence space, to fuel this final, devastating strike. If favonovel.com was to fall, favonovel.com vowed to drag the two before favonovel.com down with him.
In the vast heavens above, stars shimmered like scattered jewels, their light ethereal and enigmatic.
Beneath their feet, the ground came alive with intricate streaks of white light, weaving together to form an immense eight trigrams symbol. It was as though the heavens and the earth had become one, resonating in harmony.
The forces between them surged and intertwined, creating an overwhelming and terrifying energy.
