Chapter 873 Evolution of the Four-Blade God Killing Broadsword
Crack!
The faint sound of something cracking rang out.
A crack appeared on the Four-Blade God Killing Broadsword.
The eyes of Li Mu and lord of the Wind Clan widened in disbelief at the same time.
“How could this divine blade be damaged?”
Li Mu was more shocked than the lord of the Wind Clan.
He never thought that his punch could cause the blade of the Four-Blade God Killing Broadsword to crack.
However, before the two of them could come to their senses, something even more incredible happened.
Crack! Crack!
Crisp sounds like cracking rusted iron rang out.
The crack spread like a rapidly growing wild vine across the blade of the Four-Blade God Killing Broadsword and soon covered the whole blade and the hilt.
Then, pieces of metal began to fall to the ground.
“Ah…”
The lord of the Wind Clan screamed and released his grip on the hilt of the Four-Blade God Killing Broadsword as if his hand had been pricked by something sharp.
Beams of golden light shot out from the broken blade.
The lord of the Wind Clan instinctively raised his hand to grab the broadsword, but an inexplicable force sent him flying.
…“Could it be that the blade of the broadsword was already shattered when it collided with the evil sword?”
Li Mu felt greatly shocked.
Pieces of metal kept falling off the blade of the broadsword.
Beams of strange golden light were flashing and swirling inside the broken blade.
Soon, the entire blade of the Four-Blade God Killing Broadsword completely broke into pieces. Four strings of golden divine runes appeared, shining brightly and floating in the air like four golden divine dragons.
“What are you waiting for? Hurry up and refine the divine runes.”
The voice of the fairy in yellow rang out again, urging Li Mu to take action.
Li Mu suddenly felt enlightened.
With the Xiantian Skill combined with the Divine Rune Refining Technique, he guided the golden divine runes floating in the air. Sure enough, the four strings of golden runes began to enter his body with almost no difficulty.
The lord of the Wind Clan, who had been blown away by the power of the golden runes, reacted too slowly. When he came to his senses, there was only one chain of golden runes left in the sky. He tried his best to get the chain, but he found that he was repelled by it and his effort was just futile.
In the end, the four chains of golden divine runes all entered Li Mu’s body.
Li Mu suddenly felt a clear stream of information flowing through his mind.
A look of ecstasy appeared on his face.
“Is this the real form of the Four-Blade God Killing Broadsword?”
He raised his hand and waved it. A golden chain appeared. With unparalleled Broadsword Intent, the golden chain shot out, streaked across the sky, and hacked at the lord of the Wind Clan in midair.
“What a lame skill.”
The lord of the Wind Clan sneered.
He knew Li Mu’s true energy and cultivation level very well.
No matter how powerful the Broadsword Qi and Broadsword Intent of a practitioner in the Upper King Realm were, it was still difficult for the practitioner to compete with a high-level master in the Deity Realm. The most troublesome thing for the lord of the Wind Clan was Li Mu’s tremendous physical power. As for Li Mu’s true energy and Broadsword Intent…
“Break!”
The lord of the Wind Clan casually waved his hand, unleashing the power of a deity. He wanted to break the golden chain filled with Broadsword Intent just like he did before.
However, reality proved his judgment wrong.
Like a divine dragon coming out of the sea, the golden chain soared through the sea of his Spirit Qi and streaked across his shoulder, directly breaking through his energy field. With a flash of light, it caused a wound on his shoulder.
Blood slowly oozed out of the wound.
“What?”
The lord of the Wind Clan was greatly shocked.
After cutting through the shoulder of the lord of the Wind Clan, the golden chain did not disappear, but instead, twisting and turning like a divine dragon, it ripped through the air towards the lord of the Wind Clan as if it were going to coil around him and kill him.
“Is there such a way to use the Broadsword Intent?
“When used by martial arts practitioners, the Broadsword Intent, the Sword Intent, and other intents of martial arts are mostly in the form of a straight line instead of a twisting and coiling form like a dragon or snake.”
Considering how the strong Broadsword Intent of the golden chain broke down his defense, the lord of the Wind Clan didn’t dare to underestimate its power. He moved swiftly using a secret skill and dodged the attack.
Just then, Li Mu launched another attack with the palm of his left hand.
Another golden chain streaked across the sky. One end of the golden chain was connected to his hand, and the other end of it darted out like a sea dragon and headed straight toward the lord of the Wind Clan.
“Something’s not right. It is not ordinary Broadsword Intent, but the power of the Four-Blade God Killing Broadsword.”
The lord of the Wind Clan was an experienced fighter with keen eyesight. He moved continuously to dodge the attack when he realized what was going on after a moment of shock and confusion.
“Is this the real form of the Four-Blade God Killing Broadsword?”
The lord of the Wind Clan wondered as he tried to dodge.
The tangible broadsword turned into an invisible blade and merged with the power of Li Mu’s golden runes, suddenly becoming surprisingly powerful and versatile.
“It seems that I have truly underestimated this divine broadsword.”
Li Mu stretched out his hands and held the two chains of golden runes with strong Broadsword Intent, looking as if he were holding the tails of two golden divine dragons. He controlled the two “golden dragons” and his broadsword with his intent, and his intent merged with the broadsword. The broadsword no longer moved in straight lines. Its power, versatility, and speed were completely beyond his imagination.
Like a child who got a new toy he loved so much that he just couldn’t put it down, Li Mu immersed himself in the use of the Four-Blade God Killing Broadsword. He continuously brandished the broadsword and integrated the Broadsword Intent of the 24 Solar Terms with it, trying to figure out and experience its wonders.
A cyan longsword appeared in the hand of the lord of the Wind Clan. He moved like a flash of light and got within three meters of Li Mu in the blink of an eye.
Previously, he attacked Li Mu repeatedly with the Four-Blade God Killing Broadsword, but unexpectedly, Li Mu seized the opportunity, cultivated a secret skill of using the physical power, and took this divine broadsword. Only then did he realize that for some reason, the Four-Blade God Killing Broadsword had no harmful effect on Li Mu.
He believed that if he had used any other divine weapon, Li Mu would probably have already become a pile of minced meat.
He approached Li Mu quickly and attacked the latter directly.
“Perfect timing.”
Li Mu laughed wildly, and with a stir of his mind, he produced another two golden chains with strong Broadsword Intent that burst out from his palms. Writhing like two golden pythons, the golden chains flew toward the lord of the Wind Clan, leaving behind two curved trajectories like an antelope’s horns.
“Hmm? How can he do this again?”
The lord of the Wind Clan swung his sword to block the attack.
Hiss! Hiss! Hiss!
The Qingfeng Sword in his hand, which was a rare Taoist Treasure, became entangled with the golden chains bursting with Broadsword Intent. The twisting golden chains crushed the Qingfeng Sword into pieces, and even the power of the primordial Qi that he infused into the sword was instantly obliterated.
“This is not good.”
Shocked, the lord of the Wind Clan immediately retreated like a gust of wind.
He didn’t expect that the true form and power of the Four-Blade God Killing Broadsword would be so terrifying. When the four chains of golden runes encircled him, he immediately sensed the strong killing intent and danger.
Li Mu’s ecstasy was beyond words.
Under normal circumstances, he would definitely lose to the lord of the Wind Clan, and even if he could escape, he would not be able to run far. However, after he knew how to use the Four-Blade God Killing Broadsword in its real form, he could turn the tables and suppress the lord of the Wind Clan.
“The power of this divine artifact is simply incredible.
“Is this the secret of the Four-Blade God Killing Broadsword that Yu Jingfeng has mentioned before?
“Even Yu Jingfeng knew this secret, his master—the lord of the Wind Clan should know it too. The lord of the Wind Clan once took the Four-Blade God Killing Broadsword away from me. He did not refine it directly, but he let me take it. Why?”
Li Mu attacked continuously.
The lord of the Wind Clan was at a disadvantage.
The four golden chains with Broadsword Intent in Li Mu’s hands were flexible and mysterious. As time went by, he became more and more proficient in using them in a coordinated way. Gradually, the wonders of these golden chains showed.
Puff!
The lord of the Wind Clan was caught off guard. One of his arms was entangled by a golden chain with Broadsword Intent and turned into a mist of blood.
“Ouch!”
His face contorted in pain, and he frantically fled.
The Four-Blade God Killing Broadsword could cause terrible severe damage to the members of Divine Clans. Now, it was in its true form, so it could cause even more severe damage. It smashed one arm of the lord of the Wind Clan into powder. Although the lord of the Wind Clan had vigorous blood Qi and secret magic skills, he could not recover from injury for a moment.
“Go to hell with your disciples and repent to those innocent mortals that you’ve killed.”
Li Mu leaped into the air and chased after the lord of the Wind Clan mercilessly.
Puff! Puff!
Blood mist permeated the air.
The golden chains with Broadsword Intent broke down the desperate counterattack and defense of the lord of the Wind Clan, who was like an animal caught in a trap, and crushed half of his body. Red and white mists spread all over the whole sky.
Li Mu felt like he was invincible with this divine artifact in his hand. He had never had such a feeling before.
“Ah-ah-ah, Li Mu, I want you to die.”
The lord of the Wind Clan roared like a wild beast. He lost the other arm as he tried to fight back. Scared, he retreated straight back to the demonic giant that had been standing on the edge of the abandoned garden and went into the giant’s earhole.
Li Mu did not hesitate to press home the attack. A twisting golden chain that was about one thousand meters long shot out and darted toward the giant’s earhole to kill the lord of the Wind Clan hiding in it.
The demonic giant covered in flames, who had been standing quietly like a puppet, suddenly lowered its head and glared at Li Mu. Two beams of blood-red light shot toward Li Mu with strong killing intent.
“This is too bad! Danger!”
Li Mu sensed the great danger.
In an instant, four golden chains bursting with Broadsword Intent twisted and connected with each other in front of him, making the sound of metal rubbing against metal. Then, they coiled up like snakes, forming a huge golden disc with a diameter of a hundred meters in front of him.
Boom!
The two beams of blood-red light from the giant’s eyes crashed into the giant golden disc made up of coiled golden chains and directly shattered it. The golden chains with Broadsword Intent broke apart into pieces that drifted in the void.
Li Mu was sent flying backward.
“What kind of monster is this? How could it be so terrifying? Could it be the ancient god summoned by the Wind Clan?”
Another four golden chains with Broadsword Intent shot out from Li Mu’s palms.
The current state of the Four-Blade God Killing Broadsword was between an illusion and reality. Even though it was smashed, Li Mu could still produce golden chains with it as long as its soul was still alive.
Boom!
The earth shook.
The demonic giant covered in flames walked toward Li Mu and tried to step on him.
It wanted to step on him like a mortal stepping on an ant.
Li Mu didn’t choose to fight it head-on. As he moved like a flash of light, the golden chains with Broadsword Intent took the shape of a hand and covered the stupid dog and the Immortal Taoist in the abandoned garden.
Boom!
The entire abandoned garden was crushed into pieces under the foot of the demonic giant covered in flames.
“Take good care of the Immortal Taoist.”
Li Mu threw the stupid dog and the Immortal Taoist into the air. In the air, the stupid dog leaped up, carried the Immortal Taoist on his back, and escaped from the battlefield.
The huge hand formed by the golden chains with Broadsword Intent produced by Li Mu stretched out, grabbed a broken palace on the ground, pulled it up by the roots, swung it around, and then hurled it fiercely at the demonic giant covered in flames.
