The silver dragon roared as the Silver Dragon Knight Tenuo launched an attack. He swung his silver greatsword in a cross-shaped slash at Coldblade's back!
"Boom!"
Coldblade's body shook violently as he lost a tiny bit of health. However, his HP quickly recovered back to full. In a fit of rage, Coldblade abruptly turned around and thrust his longsword forward. Puchi! A dazzling icicle suddenly pierced through the air. The icicle was surrounded by a cyclone of energy. It was an incredibly powerful attack!
"Roar roar roar …"
The silver dragon let out a miserable wail as a deep wound appeared on its neck. Tenuo also let out a muffled groan as he was struck by the icicle's fragments and fell to the ground with the silver dragon.
The Armored Dragon Knight Piasce's eyes turned bloodshot as he urged his dragon to launch an attack. His dragon spear pierced through Coldblade's arm armor, causing black blood to spurt out. Coldblade was no longer human. Moreover, if he were a human, it would be impossible for him to possess such a heaven-defying ability.
"Jiejie …"
Coldblade let out a shrill howl as he spun around and grabbed the dragon spear in his hand. Then, he swung the longsword in his hand horizontally. With a loud crack, the Steel Armored Dragon Knight's arm was cleanly severed. Even the Steel Armored Dragon Knight's fleshy wing had suffered a horrifying wound. Half of the wing was nearly shattered as the Steel Armored Dragon Knight howled miserably and plummeted to the ground.
Coldblade raised his sword with one hand and spread his arms wide. An endless storm appeared around him as he stared at the ground. He laughed cruelly and said, "What's wrong, Karinshan? Aren't you known as the strongest commander of the Silver Moon Alliance?
Now, you only know how to send these pitiful creatures to die?
Now, I've played enough. Sky City belongs to the Purgatory Army. I — Endless Storm?
Coldblade shall become the sole ruler of this land. Fans of the book also like to read:! "
As he said this, Coldblade's power abruptly erupted. Shockingly enough, it was the power of a domain. A boundless storm wreaked havoc in the air, and miserable groans immediately rang out as the Fire Dragon Knight, Green Dragon Knight, and Ice Dragon Knight all fell to the ground one after another.
… …
"Hmph, you're going too far!"
Karinshan was enraged. With a clang, she unsheathed her sword and stood up abruptly. Her battle boots stomped on the back of her mount as her beautiful figure soared into the sky. Wind energy surged around her, and after a few Dimensional Jumps, Karinshan transformed into a bolt of lightning as she charged straight at Coldblade. Snowflakes condensed on her sword as she heavily slashed at Coldblade.
Clang!
Coldblade's sword clashed with Karinshan's sharp sword, and the resulting shockwaves exploded outwards. Karinshan immediately spun around and hurriedly retreated. Her beautiful hair was a mess, and her battle robes fluttered wildly in the air. Relying on the support of the wind blades, she barely managed to stay in the air for a short period of time. After this exchange, it was clear that Karinshan's strength was inferior to Coldblade's.
"Hahaha, Karinshan, is that all you have?"
Coldblade laughed maniacally as he pointed a finger at the floating human princess. With a sinister smile, he said, "If that's the case, then let me chop off your head and take it to Purgatory to receive my reward. The other eight sovereigns will definitely be very happy to see your head separated from your body, hahahaha …"
Karinshan let out a soft snort as she pushed her power to the limit. Her longsword abruptly blossomed with a frightening light as it flew towards Coldblade.
"Oh?"
Coldblade was slightly surprised as he hurriedly formed a barrier to defend himself. He also noticed that the power behind Karinshan's attack was completely different from before. This beautiful princess was finally angry.
The sword light scattered, and the cold blade broke through Karinshan's attack. A heavy palm imprinted itself on Karinshan's chest. The cold wind blew, and the energy of this palm was not inferior to the storm. The other book readers were shocked.
Boom!
Karinshan crashed down from the sky, creating a terrifyingly deep crater in the ground. Dust flew into the air as the entire Heavenblessed Continent seemed to tremble.
After a long time, the dust finally settled. Karinshan knelt on one knee at the center of the enormous crater. She held her longsword as she slowly got to her feet. Bright red blood flowed from her forehead as she stared at Coldblade with unyielding eyes. However, there was also a trace of helplessness in her eyes. The difference in strength between the two of them was just too great. Karinshan was no match for Coldblade at all.
… …
Coldblade slowly descended from the sky and landed on the ground that was covered in scars. Gripping his sharp sword, he walked step by step toward Princess Karinshan.
My eyes turned cold as I said, "Here's your chance. Protect the human princess. Do any of you dare to come with me and kill Coldblade?"
"Why wouldn't we?"
Gui Guzi, High Fighting Spirits, Li Chengfeng, and the others all raised their weapons.
I chuckled as I raised my sword and charged toward Coldblade. The distance between us was about 300 yards, so it wasn't too far. Gui Guzi, He Yi, and the others were also quickly catching up to me. The players from Snowy Cathaya, The Monarch Descends, and the other guilds had also caught up to me. This was the most important part of the quest, so I couldn't miss it!
As I got close to Coldblade, I suddenly activated Thunderous Charge!
Whoosh!
I charged straight toward one of the Nine Sovereigns. As an Immortal Rank boss, Coldblade's strength was simply too much higher than mine!
“MISS！”
Just as I had predicted, the stun effect of Charge had missed. However, I quickly followed up with a Burning Blade Slash. Three flaming blades slashed at Coldblade's back at lightning speed, causing a series of damage numbers to pop up above his head — 445. Everyone else, take a look at the damage numbers as normal:! "
“782！”
“1024！”
Holy shit, that last attack barely hit four digits. Just what kind of stats did Coldblade have?
No wonder even Princess Karinshan wasn't a match for him!
"Hmph, you damned brat!"
Coldblade abruptly spun around and slashed his longsword at my chest. A bone-piercing pain immediately spread through my Dragonscale Armor as a frightening damage number appeared above my head — "19007!"
Fuck, thank goodness I had the Soul Suppressing Cloak on me. Otherwise, that attack would've one-shot me for sure!
Li Chengfeng replaced me and abruptly knocked me away. His Tempest Sword whistled through the air as it stabbed into the boss's chest. He then used a combo of Dragonbone Flurry and Cyan Dragon Horn — "107!"
“121！”
“99！”
“201！”
High Fighting Spirits immediately exclaimed in shock, "Fuck, isn't this a little too much?
Even Li Chengfeng can only deal three digits of damage … "
Coldblade shook his longsword as a storm gathered around the tip of his sword. In the next instant, he pointed his sword straight at our group of players as he unleashed his ultimate skill!
"Fuck, it's an AoE skill! Dodge!"
I hurriedly shouted as I grabbed High Fighting Spirits by his chain armor and dragged him to the side. The moment we moved away from him, Coldblade unleashed a storm of sword energy that swept across an entire path. The storm of sword energy left a terrifyingly deep trench in the ground. Chaos Moon and Moonlight Stone were among the dozen or so players who fell to the ground in the path of the storm of sword energy. In the end, they managed to survive until the tenth wave, but they still hadn't made it to the end. Fans of the novel also loved to read: "The Storm of Swords".
Coldblade roared as he abruptly raised his arm. His longsword glowed with a sword energy that shot into the sky and created an entire tornado. Damn, this attack is even scarier than before!
Lin Yixin's face turned pale. "Hurry up and stop him!"
The Frozen Sword slashed toward Coldblade with the power of Extreme Break, but it was unable to stop the Immortal Rank boss from charging up his attack. I followed closely behind him and raised my fist. A blood-red energy swirled around my fist as I leaped into the air. I tilted my body slightly to the side and gathered all the power in my fist into my fist. Then, I punched the boss in the chest!
"Magic Piercing Punch!"
“7983！”
Finally, my powerful Magic Piercing Punch shattered Coldblade's ultimate skill. However, he only grew more and more enraged as he raised his sword and charged toward me.
It was at this moment that High Fighting Spirits stepped forward and swung his Invincible Battle Axe. As if he was about to explode, he bent down and rammed his body into the boss's waist. High Fighting Spirits roared and used Xiezhi Howl. The energy condensed into the ferocious form of a giant Xiezhi beast. Energy swirled around it as it dealt damage to the boss!
The aggro immediately shifted. Coldblade had been attracted by High Fighting Spirits' reckless attack, so he raised his sword and was about to kill the signature warrior of Ancient Sword Dreaming Souls.
"Bang!"
A gigantic shield smashed into the boss's face. Gui Guzi, who was riding on his Armored Swordback Dragon, charged forward and broke High Fighting Spirits out of his predicament with a Shield Bash. He took the full brunt of Cold Blade's three consecutive slashes!
Clang clang clang!
Sparks flew as Coldblade's sword collided with the shield and nearly shattered it. Three distinct dents appeared on the shield. The boss's attack was just too high, and after those three hits, Gui Guzi's 40k HP had dropped to almost nothing. Luckily, I had healed Lin Yixin in time to activate Bombshell and use Guard to block the boss's attacks. Otherwise, Gui Guzi would've died for sure.
Gui Guzi retreated again and again as the two beautiful figures covered his back. He Yi and Lin Yixin actually moved to his side and raised their swords to block the boss's next attack.
Clang clang clang...
After a few hits, Lin Yixin was forced back and her HP dropped to low. He Yi fared slightly better because she had a shield after all.
Seeing this, He Yi swung her arm and sent Lin Yixin flying. Then, Coldblade's Storm Strike completely engulfed both He Yi and the Snow Domain Windchaser!
“39842！”
It was a critical hit. My heart trembled. He Yi was the guild leader of Ancient Sword Dreaming Souls, but she had actually been one-shot by a boss...
Lin Yixin stood there in shock. She didn't know what to do.
I rushed forward and picked up the wristguards that He Yi had dropped. Then, I wrapped an arm around Lin Yixin, whose mount tenacity had been interrupted, and pulled her back. The battle here had already exceeded the limits of our endurance. We hadn't dealt any damage to Coldblade, but we were in danger of being annihilated!
"Sister He Yi, she …"
Lin Yixin looked back and saw He Yi's corpse lying in a pool of blood. Her beautiful eyes were filled with complex emotions. "Lu Chen, I …"
I smiled. "It's nothing, Yiyi. We're allies. If Eve was in trouble, you would've saved her, wouldn't you?
A knight's duty is to protect their companions. Eve is becoming more and more like a competent knight. "
"Mn, I'm sorry. It's all my fault …"
"It's nothing. Don't blame yourself. The moment you do, I feel like I owe you a lot of money."
"..."
