Bang!
Cracks appeared on the ground from the impact, as both sides retreated. From that first exchange, it seemed that they were evenly matched.
“Interesting, really interesting! But next, 1 will instill in you the fear of death!”
The man’s sinister voice suddenly rang out.
Suddenly, a steel wire shot out from the man’s palm, and at the end of the steel wire was a sharp tip!
It whistled through the air as fast as lightning!
“Tsk!”
Ye Chen quickly sidestepped the attack.
“You’re taking me too lightly!”
All of a sudden, the steel wire seemed to gain a mind of its own as it turned back and headed straight for Ye Chen’s neck!
Ye Chen’s expression changed slightly as he ducked low. At the same time, he grabbed the steel wire.
Swoosh!
The man was pulled toward Ye Chen!
“Die!”
Ye Chen imbued the Dragonslayer Sword with his true qi as he unleashed a terrifying slash.
However, the man simply sneered.
“Trying to kill me with just that? Not gonna happen!”
As soon as he finished speaking, the steel wire transformed into a flexible sword as he unleashed his own slash to meet Ye Chen’s.
This steel wire was no ordinary steel wire, and could even transform!
Furthermore, it was forged with spirit stones and using some of the latest technology. It could transform into different weapons, and because of the materials it had been forged with, ordinary weapons could not destroy it.
Clang!
Two cold metallic flashes collided!
Sparks flew!
Thn, something unexpected happened!
The flexible sword actually broke!
The man’s eyes widened as he exclaimed in shock, “How is that possible?!”
However, he reacted quickly, and hastily retreated before Ye Chen’s sword strike could hit him.
Even so, his clothes were torn.
The man looked at his clothes and smiled.
“This is the first time someone has put me in such a sorry state. However, it’s time for this game to end!”
“Do you know where I rank on Huaxia’s grandmaster rankings when I unleash my strength? You wouldn’t understand how strong, but just know that 1 just killed an expert ranked 30th the day before yesterday! In comparison, you are nothing!”
Seconds later, the man’s body actually emitted black energy, and his body suddenly grew larger. He was covered in a layer of cold killing intent.
Ye Chen was briefly taken aback, but he quickly snapped back to his senses. Just as he was about to attack, he heard the black-robed old man say, “This is his true face. His martial path is also the Slaughter Dao. It won’t be easy for you to deal with him now. The stronger you are, the stronger his killing intent will be. 1 didn’t expect that such a secret technique would exist in a place like this.”
Ye Chen took a step forward. The Dragonslayer Sword released killing intent, which swept toward the man like a hurricane.
Bang!
The two forces collided, but this time, Ye Chen actually retreated three steps!
His opponent’s strength had increased by more than five times!
The man’s sinister smile rang out, “If I want you to die, you must die. Remember, you died at the hands of Crimson of Xuemei Palace. I am Crimson, the blood assassin!”
From this, it was obvious that Crimson was the other party’s code name.
Seconds later, he dashed in front of Ye Chen, and the dagger in his hand drew a deadly arc in the air, as it went straight for Ye Chen’s jugular!
“Die!”
At this critical moment, a voice rang out in his mind.
“The Slaughter Dao can be used to break swords and weapons with fists! The heart of someone who cultivates the Slaughter Dao fears nothing! You can use the illusory blood dragon as a weapon!”
“If you want to kill this person, use it! Combine it with the Bloodthirsty Slash!”
At this moment, Ye Chen was enlightened, and his understanding of the Slaughter Dao increased.
A powerful blood aura instantly surged out of his body, and condensed into a blood dragon, which wrapped itself around Ye Chen’s arm!
A second later, Ye Chen arm moved to grab the dagger that was filled with killing intent!
From Crimson’s perspective, Ye Chen was practically courting death!
He was actually trying to use his hand to block his dagger? Was this guy stupid?
“Die!”
Ye Chen’s hand collided with the terrifying dagger, producing sharp, ear-piercing friction sounds.
Moments later, everything seemed to be moving in slow motion.
Crimson’s eyes were filled with fear because his dagger was firmly in Ye Chen’s grasp!
Furthermore, there was no blood!
What sorcery was this?
He also heard faint dragon roars ring out in his ears, and when he looked at Ye Chen closely, he could vaguely see the outline of a blood dragon around the latter’s arm!
The blood dragon’s ferocious mouth had opened wide and bit down on the dagger!
His killing intent disappeared! All of it was absorbed by the blood dragon!
How was this possible?
“You’re not the only one who knows about the Slaughter Dao, but your Slaughter Dao and mine are on different levels!”
Kacha!
The illusory blood dragon roared, and the dagger broke into pieces!
The man’s face was pale and filled with fear. His entire body trembled as he subconsciously took a step back!
His eyes were fixed on Ye Chen in front of him. No, more accurately, his eyes were fixed on the ferocious blood dragon behind Ye Chen!
The blood dragon exuded an extremely terrifying aura. It felt suffocating, and just looking at it made it feel like his soul was about to be devoured!
“Who exactly are you?”
Fear gripped his heart, and he continuously retreated.
“Who am I?”
Ye Chen’s eyes narrowed as he gripped the Dragonslayer Sword tightly. The blood dragon’s roar shook the sky!
“I’m the Sovereign of Slaughter, Ye Chen!”
