Chapter 625 - 614: Ding Ling vs. Master of the Celestial Gate

Momentarily, a thirtyfold surge!

A spectacular saber, a hundred meters long, materialized in the void, slicing toward the tangible icy gaze with a thunderous roar.

With this slash, crackling and popping!

The gaze and the saber light violently collided in the void for merely an instant.

The saber light, with unstoppable momentum, shattered the gaze and slashed at Emperor Shitian, instantly severing his arm.

Emperor Shitian let out a miserable scream.

He grabbed the severed arm in mid-air, employed Shrinking Inches, and retreated violently a hundred meters.

He stood afar, attaching the arm back to his body, looking at Ding Ling with great suspicion:

"Ten Strong Martial Dao?! Are you Wu Wudi’s heir?!"

From Emperor Shitian’s sudden attack.

To Emperor Shitian’s arm being sliced off and his violent retreat.

This all happened in the blink of an eye, faster than lightning, leaving Nie Feng stunned, unable to react as the first exchange ended.

The speed, truly like thunder and lightning, was just too quick!

Nie Feng shuddered, sensing that should he intervene in this fight, he would be instantly shattered to pieces, without the slightest chance of survival.

Seeing Ding Ling’s gesture, indicating him to stay back, Nie Feng decisively utilized Wind God Leg to run far away; this level of combat was beyond his interference; his best course of action was not to hold anyone back.

Meanwhile.

Player spectators in some secluded corners.

These players were numerous, present in this small city on their way to Unrivaled City, witnessing the battle between Emperor Shitian and Ding Ling, dumbfounded and their blood boiling.

Many guessed at who might ultimately prevail and some even began gambling over it.

"Hmph."

Ding Ling was decisive in his lethal actions, once engaged, there was no stopping.

After one slash.

He without hesitation unleashed another slash!

No-Two Blade Technique!

Sky Dome Fury!

This slash was the strongest of the No-Two Blade Technique, amalgamating the strength of Black Tortoise True Skill and Ten Directions Invincible, infused with Divine Form Power, vividly inscribed on both sides of the saber. As the saber light cleaved out, the world trembled and Heaven and Earth roared. This slash seemed to harness the power of the world!

The instant the saber light emerged.

The entire Sky Dome appeared to compress downward, emanating an unavoidable, unstoppable grandiose and vastness.

"Indeed, it’s Ten Strong Martial Dao!"

Emperor Shitian, bewildered, yet acted swiftly, thrusting both palms to unleash a raging Frost Storm that rolled toward the hundred-meter saber.

Ka-cha!

At the collision between storm and saber, it felt like a giant axe cleaving a mountain. The two sides clashed briefly, and then the storm was noisily shattered in Emperor Shitian’s fear-stricken gaze, ka-cha ka-cha!

The storm was obliterated!

The saber’s force swiftly cleaved downward, targeting the vulnerability at Emperor Shitian’s head.

"Such a formidable Ten Directions Martial Dao. This must have reached the Transformation Realm!"

Emperor Shitian screamed sharply, no longer composed, his form swiftly changing in the void, executing Free-Will Ascension Step flawlessly, appearing like phantoms skimming through the void, shifting dozens of positions in a blink, retreating a hundred meters.

Rumble!

The hundred-meter saber light descended, slicing through a three-story pavilion, instantly splitting it apart; the buildings, trees, mounds, and rockeries behind it were all halved by this slash.

The saber’s might was ferocious beyond words.

As if nothing could block its path.

Ding Ling, calm and composed, his clothes flapping in the fierce wind, decisively unleashed yet another slash after the first.

No-Two Blade Technique!

Mountain City Torrential Rain!

This was the swiftest slash, transforming most rapidly and expediently, following the strongest stroke Sky Dome Fury, upon exhausting old force and before new force arises. This transition was timely!

As this slash cut forth.

Instantly.

A dense array of hundred-meter saber lights filled the sky, like pouring rain!

Forming characters like ’井’ and ’田’, oppressing toward Emperor Shitian.

Emperor Shitian was instantly cornered, with his paths of advance and retreat blocked, only left to confront head-on.

His face changed dramatically, issuing a long howl.

Rapidly forming seals with both hands!

Following his shout!

Holy Heart Technique!

Ten Thousand Ridges Piercing the Clouds!

The churning, surging frost and snow transformed into a swarm of blades, densely filling the void. With a wave, Emperor Shitian unleashed them like ferocious birds, crashing into the saber lights.

Crackling and popping!

Rumble!

Upon contact, the battle was instantly driven to a fever pitch!

Almost as if a fight to the death.

Both sides unleashed their ultimate techniques, back and forth.

Looking broadly.

Saber lights and blades crisscross and collide continuously in the small city, thunderous noises never ceasing.

Ding Ling and Emperor Shitian seemed like deities incarnate, battling in the skies, slicing and shattering clouds, fissures appearing in the void as if capable of tearing the dome of heaven.

Occasionally battling to the Earth Realm.

Where trees toppled and grass buckled, buildings crumbled, the earth shook and fractured, crisscrossed with cracks, as if cleansed by celestial fire and thunder, a devastated scene painful to behold.

Their battle.

Turned the small city into near ruins.

Alarmed, Nie Feng whisked away elderly and children to maintain safety.

Rumble!

Standing further away.

One could faintly see beneath the Sky Dome, two figures stirring endless storms, each clash resounding with thunder, involuntarily shaking one’s heart and spirit, scalp tingling uncontrollably.

"So powerful."

Nie Feng was dazed, muttering:

"This is truly the power of the divine! How can humans obstruct? I never thought that Venerable Lord’s godly might could reach such a level! Moreover, I never imagined the Celestial Sect’s Emperor Shitian to be so strong?!"

He couldn’t fathom who could withstand if such individuals decided to toy with someone?!

Thankfully, Venerable Lord is here!

"Terrifying!"

The players were startled, some failing to escape and being impacted, their bodies instantly disintegrated into ashes by the saber lights and lightning!

With no resistance at all.

Those not impacted fled in panic, only daring to glance back after running far, speaking fearfully:

"Has Ding Ling grown this powerful?!"
