When that giant black flood dragon spread itself and bit over, Zong Shou opened his eyes. The lightning winged sword was held tightly in his hands and was ready to attack.

At this moment the intense pain of the dragon essence merging into his body was like ten million knife pieces slashing about in his body.

Although during this process, the dragon shadow old man was trying his best to suppress the changes of the violent dragon Essence in his body to reduce the pain. However, it’s use was minute.

Within his body, fire and water spiral world shocking true energy was surging about within his dual meridians. That external pill forcefully injected huge amounts of spiritual energy into his meridians, causing all his 9 chakra meridians to be charged at, squeezing them such that they were about to explode.

Zong Shou could only fully focus on the sword in his hand, tossing these knife-like pains to the back of his head.

Actually, he couldn’t forget about it but he just converted this pain into fighting spirit!

The more painful it was, the more clearheaded his mind was. The killing intent in his chest had swelled up to the maximum during this process! All the potential in his body was being ignited out bit by bit.

“Are you going to kill that Long Ruo? I have never heard of that Mysterious Cloud Spirit Sect and Pill Fountain Sect but the ancestor of the Lingyun Sect was a famous person. Although you don’t care, it won’t be easy for your Gantian Mountain to unify the Donglin Cloud Continent in the future…”

The voice of the dragon shadow old man brought with it a little teasing laugh. Zong Shou acted like he didn’t hear anything, his gaze was still extremely cold.

The strength of that Lingyun Sect ancestor had nothing to do with him. He knew that today he would not allow these 3 people to leave unharmed from the front of his eyes.

Since he was already their enemy then why does he need to leave them face? Would Lingyun, Mysterious Cloud Spirit Sect, and Pill Fountain Sect pity Gantian Mountain and let them go?

At that moment, that black colored flood dragon had already charged in front of his eyes. At the horn on its forehead, a cold light shone—there was hidden energy within.

Zong Shou took in a deep breath. Then, when the 2 of them were roughly 200 feet away from one another, he pulled out his sword!

“Platinum dragon sword, slash!”

The eye-catching sword light which had spiral energy instantly dyed the entire cave blue and red. He waved it down diagonally as he hacked down in front of his body!

The sword attack pointed right at the forehead of the black flood dragon, at that seemingly indestructible giant horn!

Using the sharp edge to break the sharp edge! Fighting sharpness against sharpness!

Keng!

A loud deafening sharp ring sounded out, reverberating through the entire cave. The collapsing speed of the mountain rocks became faster and faster.

That black flood dragon gave out a sad cry, curving its huge body in an attempt to pull back its head.

That extremely sharp and strong horn was split into half from the middle. The sword attack didn’t stop, directly cutting into the forehead of the flood dragon, drawing out a long bloody wound.

It was just half a kilometer away from the skull!

Long Ruo drove the broken blade sword and rushed over, at this moment he felt his heart stop, he was astonished!

How could that extremely sharp and extremely powerful be from Zong Shou’s hand?

Was it Dragon Shadow? That’s impossible! Even a martial saint would have no strength after crossing hundreds of worlds to help control the dragon essence to purify Zong Shou’s body whilst slashing out such a sharp sword!

In the next instant, his mind was attracted by the ice-cold gaze from Zong Shou’s sweeping eyes.

It was also filled with killing intent and calmness.

Long Ruo’s mind also instantly calmed down at that moment. Since he had already attacked then there was no room for any regrets.

No matter what the reason was, he needed to just slay Zong Shou with this sword and he would be able to solve everything!

The broken blade sword sunk diagonally to avoid the black flood serpent whose body arched upwards. In the air it brought with it an eye-catching trajectory, before it increased to top speed, speeding towards Zong Shou with a speed which was hard for the naked eye to pick up.

Along the way, all-metal element spiritual energy was absorbed by it. This sword could break gold and destroy knives, this was the metal crushing sword intent!

Zong Shou’s gaze flashed slightly. The sword attack changed once more. His foot stepped on the ground as he gathered the energy from the earth. The sword in his hand was like numerous mountains were pressing down on it, it was extremely heavy and burdensome!

…This was the yellow dragon sword!

The sword attack seemed heavy, it looked slow but it was quick, and it became faster and faster! A slash from left to right. No matter how the sword light which came from the air changed, it was unable to avoid being enveloped by this sword.

This time it was another low clang sound! The short and sharp pale white sword light was smashed away by Zong Shou’s sword!

Yellow dragon sword, this sword encapsulated the power of a group of mountains!

Long Ruo’s soul was also tossed backward due to the giant strength that surged over. It wasn’t until he was a thousand feet out did that he managed to stabilize himself.

Luckily that broken blade sword was right beside him and wasn’t out of his control. There was like a fire explosive talisman bursting out in his brain as numerous questions struck at his soul.

…Nine dragon shadow sword!

This Zong Shou could use the nine dragon shadow sword? Where did this fellow get such vast internal energy? Even with the external pill, his body should need to have sufficient foundations to utilize it! 10 days, how did this fellow be able to use the sword stance he had just comprehended in battle? It also seems like he had grasped the complete sword intent!

Was it Dragon Shadow? But the aura was not!

Han Nishui and Li Yuandan at the side, their faces were dark and sunken. They couldn’t believe their own eyes.

At the start, they doubted that it was Dragon Shadow that attacked, but their spiritual senses could sense that the sword attack’s energy came from Zong Shou’s body!

But how could Zong Shou have such bountiful energy?

The sword light trembled not only was energy exploding and surging between the 2 of them. The entire mountain was also shaken by the huge power and was shaking nonstop. The collapsing situation of the mountain rocks was also becoming more and more intense.

Zong Shou hobbled back several steps. When both of them clashed he directed most of the recoil down into the ground. The spiral sword energy also helped to deal with a portion. However, there was still some charge in his body.

In just ten steps and his body was stabilized. The energy in his body was mostly dissipated. Zong Shou’s brows rose up and knew that it was Dragon Shadow old man helping him to deal with it. If not, the sword alone was enough to cause injuries to his lungs and internal organs!

Even he could take them head-on with such a sword, it was all that was needed to end his life! His body would collapse and he would die due to the vibrations of his major and minor organs.

…The strength of a day wandering spirit master wasn’t ordinary!

If he didn’t have Dragon Shadow old man being his shield and support he definitely wouldn’t be able to have a fair fight against Long Ruo!

However, he had no time to be grateful, casually breaking the stones around his feet. Even before the energy in his body calmed down he started to dash. Lighting glow burst forth from the lightning winged sword in his hand!

“Lightning dragon sword, break!”

The energy spat out by the sword light caused all the lightning element spiritual energy within numerous miles to gather in a blink of an eye. Lightning shone like it had transformed into a lightning dragon as he occupied the cave.

The tip of the sword glow flashed and it was right in front of the black flood dragon. Dragon Shadow old man laughed, “You merged the maniac lightning sword intent into it, interesting!”

When this sword stabbed out, it wasn’t just that nine dragon shadow sword. Zong Shou also merged in the strengths of his maniac lightning sword into it.

With the strengths of both, although it was still the 1st stance of the lightning dragon sword, the power was terrifyingly strong.

Maniacal and firm, sharp and swift!

Seeing the situation, Long Ruo’s eyes were bursting out from its sockets as he hollered, the sword light sieging forwards once more.

As for the black flood dragon it was still in a dazed state. However, it instinctively waved its tail—ocean amount of cloud energy spread about and a water shield was also formed.

Zong Shou laughed coldly, whilst he broke several layers of water barriers and clashed with the broken blade sword, he shouted out “Explode” and “Stack”!

The vast lightning glow instantly exploded, causing the broken blade sword to fly once more due to the impact. Then the sword once again slashed forwards. It was still relentless as it chased the black

A moment later, one could see blood spurt out from within the cloud mist.

A tragic cry broke out, and half of the mist also dissipated. Half of the giant flood dragon was sliced. Large amounts of blood continued flowing out.

The people within the cave were stunned once more. Long Ruo once again stabilized himself. After being slightly startled, a sad feeling rose up in his heart.

At the same time, Han Nishui hollered.

“Blood and meat regrowth!”

When he said that, balls of green spiritual light surged forwards. At the place where the giant flood dragon was split, suddenly numerous meat roots grew and entangled one another.

However, just as the wound was about to heal and close before surprise could rise in Long Ruo’s heart, Zong Shou had charged in front of the giant flood dragon.

The purple sword light casually waved as he slashed off the head of the black flood dragon!

When blood once again spurted out, a vast amount of essence energy was forcefully absorbed through the sword.

In that instance, it helped to replenish the energy that Zong Shou had used up. His chakra meridians were filled once more—some weaker acupoints and parts of the meridians were even showing signs of tearing.

“Eh? Your cultivation method can absorb essence energy. I have seen this technique before in ancient times. It is called the heaven swallowing energy conversion technique. Weird, didn’t it disappear in the oblivion cloud ocean?”

After Dragon Shadow was slightly surprised he became silent once more. Zong Shou’s heart was jumping intensely. However, in the next moment, he saw a ball of fire charge over from the side. Behind it, he could recognize the face of Li Yuandan.

Zong Shou’s gaze turned cold, without thinking he slashed out.

“…Stupid clown, you dare to be impudent!”

Mysterious moon wood brilliance method, he knew it like the back of his fingertips. It was still the mysterious yin dragon sword, a purple sword flashing as he forcefully slashed away the flame cloud which seemed to cover the entire sky, directly aiming at the head of Li Yuandan.

The latter panicked, instantly retreating. It was extremely dangerous—he had just brushed past that cold dark sword.

At this moment Long Ruo’s voice rose out once more, “Earth chakra martial ancestor! Zong Shou, you have already broken through the barriers from heaven?”
