Immortal Sword Master

Chapter 277: Chapter 273: Godslaying Sword, Finale

WOOOOOO!

The Horn sounded again, its cry desolate and ancient. The power of this Primordial Spirit Treasure surpassed even that of the Godslaying Whip, and it was an area-of-effect attack.

Of course, this wasn’t to say the Godslaying Whip was weak—it just never had the chance to strike Ning Jiang.

Otherwise, if a single lash had landed on his Primordial Spirit, Ning Jiang’s Primordial Spirit would have been unable to withstand it.

Ning Jiang’s three Primordial Spirits retreated again and again. As the sonic wave of Primordial Spirit Power came within a hundred zhang, they felt as if they were about to shatter.

This thing was an absolute superweapon!

’How tenacious. I can’t believe even the Divinity Sealing Array couldn’t stop this God of Slaughter. The God of Slaughter from the legends didn’t even have Primordial Spirit Treasures. This one must be some kind of top-level entity.’

Ning Jiang had to admit how powerful this God of Slaughter was. He even suspected it might be a being of an even higher level.

If he had to give it a name, it would be the King of Gods of Slaughter.

Generally, no matter how monstrous a Celestial Tribulation was, it always left a sliver of hope for survival.

But this God of Slaughter left none whatsoever.

Consider this: Ning Jiang had three Primordial Spirits and possessed the God Obliteration Technique, a top-level Divine Sense attack technique, yet he was still being suppressed by the God of Slaughter.

Any other Martial Artist, no matter how brilliant, would have no hope of survival against this God of Slaughter.

’Since the Divinity Sealing Array was ineffective, it seems I have no choice but to use a stronger killing move. At my current Primordial Spirit Realm, activating that technique will be a stretch, but it should be possible...’

Ning Jiang took a deep breath. Both the God-Slaying Blade and the Divinity Sealing Array were relatively basic attacks.

The God Obliteration Technique actually contained even more powerful killing moves.

However, those moves required a sufficiently strong Primordial Spirit to execute; otherwise, the user would suffer a backlash.

Unfortunately, Ning Jiang had no choice but to use a stronger killing move now. This God of Slaughter was far, far more powerful than the legends described.

”This all ends now!”

Ning Jiang’s three Primordial Spirits stood together. In the next moment, a ceaseless torrent of Primordial Spirit Power erupted from them.

The three Primordial Spirits, once extremely condensed, gradually became transparent with this massive outburst.

This was due to the excessive consumption of Primordial Spirit Power. Just like a Martial Artist’s Spiritual Qi, it had a limit. Once too much was expended, one would become exhausted and unable to fight.

At this moment, Primordial Spirit Power surged forth with reckless abandon.

Gradually, a small black sword condensed in front of Ning Jiang, emanating a destructive aura!

The Godslaying Sword!

This attack was more than ten times stronger than the God-Slaying Blade. It possessed the power to slay anything in its path—be it god or buddha.

Originally, this sword could only be summoned after one reached the Third Realm of the Primordial Spirit Fourth Tribulation Realm.

With the sword’s power, a powerhouse in the Third Realm could kill an expert in the Fourth Realm, punching above their weight.

However, Ning Jiang had three Primordial Spirits, and his were far more powerful than those of an ordinary person, so he could just barely manage to summon it.

”Godslaying Sword, kill!”

As the Godslaying Sword fully materialized, Ning Jiang let out a thunderous roar.

SHIIIIING!

Words could not describe the terror of this sword strike.

The dark night itself seemed to have been cleaved in two by the blade.

Where my sword goes, the night ends!

”AWOOOO!”

The God of Slaughter let out a bloodcurdling shriek. It instinctively sensed a threat.

But in the next instant, the God of Slaughter’s shriek came to an abrupt halt.

The Godslaying Sword was not only devastatingly sharp, but also possessed incredible speed. To it, the distance of a hundred zhang was like a sheet of paper, pierced in an instant.

The God of Slaughter froze on the spot, motionless. But upon closer inspection, a small hole could be seen between its brows.

A few breaths later, with a soft POOF, the God of Slaughter disintegrated into dust and smoke.

’As expected of the Godslaying Sword. It truly didn’t disappoint me.’

Ning Jiang let out a long, heavy breath. If even the Godslaying Sword had failed to kill this God of Slaughter, then he would have been the one to die.

The Godslaying Sword had completely drained his Primordial Spirit Power, leaving him with no strength left to fight.

’These two Primordial Spirit Treasures are mine now.’

Although the battle had been incredibly arduous, the rewards delighted Ning Jiang. With the Godslaying Whip and the Horn in his possession, his Primordial Spirit would become even more formidable.

Furthermore, he could use the God Obliteration Technique to re-refine these two Primordial Spirit Treasures.

RUMBLE...

In the sky above, the sound of thunder gradually faded, and the vast expanse of storm clouds slowly dispersed.

The long night was over.

Light returned to the world.

”The Celestial Tribulation is gone.”

”What on earth just happened? Did anyone see it?”

”I think I saw a sword streak across the night sky. Was I just seeing things?”

”No, I saw it too!”

Outside the Ancient Hall, countless Martial Artists broke into a flurry of discussion.

When the God of Slaughter had appeared, the sky had turned pitch-black, and with their level of cultivation, they couldn’t see a thing that was happening.

However, everyone present had indeed seen a sword flash past in an instant.

”I never imagined your breakthrough to the Primordial Spirit Fourth Tribulation Realm would create such a terrifying scene. Congratulations.”

Liu Bingxue and Li Kuangba walked up to offer their congratulations.

Neither of them had expected Ning Jiang’s Celestial Tribulation to evolve so many times. After all, even Mo Qianyu of the Evil Spirit Sect had only faced the Fire Lotus Tribulation, and that was it.

”To be honest, I didn’t expect any of this myself,”

Ning Jiang said with a faint smile. As he spoke, his Primordial Spirit Power continuously spread outward. Information about his surroundings flooded back to him; even a single ant was clearly perceived by his Primordial Spirit.

This was the function of the Primordial Spirit. A Spirit Realm Powerhouse, for example, could only observe with their eyes.

But a Primordial Spirit Realm expert could use their Primordial Spirit as a substitute, allowing them to perceive far more than their eyes ever could.

Three li, five li, ten li!

His Primordial Spirit Power spread out to a range of ten li. Generally speaking, ten li was already the limit for a powerhouse who had just stepped into the Primordial Spirit Fourth Tribulation Realm.

But Ning Jiang was far from done. His Primordial Spirit Power continued to expand—twenty li, thirty li, forty li!

It kept spreading!

Fifty li, sixty li...

Finally, upon reaching a hundred li, his Primordial Spirit at last felt its limit.

”So? How far did it go?”

Liu Bingxue and Li Kuangba asked. They had performed the same test when they broke through to this realm, and both of them had managed about ten li.

”One hundred li.” Ning Jiang slowly uttered the three words.

”You’re a monster! A total monster! Mo Qianyu of the Evil Spirit Sect only managed thirty li and was hailed as a heaven-sent genius. If word gets out that you reached a hundred li, it’ll shake the world!” Liu Bingxue exclaimed in amazement.

”Comparisons are odious,” Li Kuangba said with a wry smile.

He used to think of himself as a genius, but compared to Ning Jiang, he was like a firefly next to the bright moon. The gap was simply unimaginable.

”Let the two of us see the strength you’ve gained after reaching the Primordial Spirit Fourth Tribulation Realm!” Liu Bingxue proposed.

”Alright!” Li Kuangba, a battle maniac himself, nodded in agreement.

”Bring it on,” Ning Jiang said nonchalantly.

BOOM!

The next moment, a confrontation of Primordial Spirits erupted.

Instantly, the faces of Li Kuangba and Liu Bingxue turned pale. They felt that in the face of Ning Jiang’s power, their own Primordial Spirit Power was like a tiny boat on an unfathomable ocean.

A single large wave from that ocean could capsize them.

”We give up! We give up! We’re no match for you at all.” After only a few breaths’ time, the two of them surrendered, their hearts pounding in their chests.
