King of Assassins
Chapter 1032 - 690: Thank You (Part 4)
Additionally, even if Ao Qiong exerts all his power, he can only manifest a third of the Divine Sword's might, and can't make the Yuan Gui Xuanbing Divine Sword shine.
Even if he could only manifest one-third of its might, Ao Qiong felt the immense and endless power of the Divine Sword.
The Profound Ice Sword Qi emitted by the Yuan Gui Xuanbing Divine Sword instantly spread in all directions.
Compared to the ferocious power of the Dragon Pearl, which freezes everything, the Profound Ice Sword Qi is invisible and intangible, immediately constructing a vast and stable Sword Domain.
Within this Sword Domain, all changes are restricted by the Divine Sword.
Holding the Yuan Gui Xuanbing Divine Sword, Ao Qiong instantly felt like the master of this Celestial Realm, with everything under his control.
At this moment, time itself seemed to freeze.
Even Gao Xuan on the opposite side was unknowingly frozen by the Yuan Gui Xuanbing Sword Intent.
In this state, Ao Qiong finally saw the changes of the Jun Heaven Wheel clearly.
This light wheel suspended behind Gao Xuan's head actually contained countless seven-color glimmers flashing and swirling inside. These seven-color glimmers are like the finest sharp needles, even able to penetrate Divine Sense.
In the depths of the Jun Heaven Wheel, beneath layers of seven-color glimmers, he vaguely sensed the aura of the Dragon Pearl.
Ao Qiong instantly understood: Gao Xuan's light wheel was refined from the Seven-Color Primordial Magnetic Divine Light. That's why it was able to swallow the Dragon Pearl, easily severing his connection with it.
He thought, "This is indeed a formidable magical artifact, probably bestowed to Gao Xuan by the Celestial Court for protection, no wonder he's so arrogant…"
Without the Yuan Gui Xuanbing Divine Sword, he truly could not contend with this artifact.
Now, however, the situation is different.
Ao Qiong's heart sneered; how unfortunate for Gao Xuan to encounter the Yuan Gui Xuanbing Divine Sword. The sword qi flowing silently had already frozen space.
Such miraculous changes truly surpassed the power of the Dragon Pearl.
For ordinary Human Immortals, just the Yuan Gui Xuanbing Sword Qi was enough to destroy them.
Gao Xuan, however, was still strong; although the light wheel was frozen, the protective Red Gold Radiance still blocked the sword qi.
But, this held no real significance.
Ao Qiong, although simple-minded, had ruthless methods. Having suffered a loss once, he wouldn't give Gao Xuan any opportunity again.
Taking advantage of Gao Xuan being frozen by the Yuan Gui Xuanbing Sword Qi, he should seize this moment to take his life.
Ao Qiong stepped forward in an instant, the Yuan Gui Xuanbing Sword fiercely chopping towards Gao Xuan.
As he was about to cut the frozen Gao Xuan under the sword, a faint golden glimmer flashed deep within Gao Xuan's azure blue pupils, and suddenly his whole body moved.
Gao Xuan's skin surface suddenly cracked with countless fine transparent fissures, like shattered transparent glass.
Following that, Ao Qiong heard a crisp sound on the Divine Soul level, and the invisible and intangible Yuan Gui Xuanbing Sword Qi freezing Gao Xuan collapsed and crumbled in an instant.
Ao Qiong was shocked, amazed at how Gao Xuan, who had already been affected, even with the frozen Jun Heaven Wheel, managed to break the Yuan Gui Xuanbing Sword Qi? He hadn't even seen Gao Xuan activate his protective magical artifact?
As Ao Qiong was astonished in his heart, his hand became even more ruthless. The Yuan Gui Xuanbing Divine Sword had already reached the front of Gao Xuan's brow.
With just a further inch forward, the Yuan Gui Xuanbing Divine Sword would pierce through Gao Xuan's brow, straight to his Divine Soul. With no matter what abilities, he would be dead without a doubt.
At this moment, Gao Xuan suddenly stretched out his hand, using his left and right middle and index fingers to pinch the Yuan Gui Xuanbing Sword Blade.
The two fingers were like two Divine Mountains, with infinite power. Clamped onto the Yuan Gui Xuanbing Divine Sword, no matter how Ao Qiong exerted it, he couldn't move it a bit.
Ao Qiong was truly afraid this time, as that slice, with such Divine Power, could cleave through even mountains, yet was impossibly restrained by just two fingers.
Despite Ao Qiong's simple mind, he realized the large gap in Dao Practice between him and Gao Xuan.
He was terrified, his desire to kill Gao Xuan vanished completely; he only thought of withdrawing the sword and fleeing immediately, to find help back at home.
However, with the Yuan Gui Xuanbing Divine Sword being pinched, attempting to withdraw the sword and leave was impossible.
Ao Qiong certainly couldn't leave the Divine Sword behind and run for his life. As he was frantically activating the Divine Sword, his silver-white vertical pupils saw a shimmering, flowing Ming Che Sword Light.
"It's the Sword Artifact…"
Ao Qiong just realized the danger, but then his brow cooled, and subsequently his Divine Soul was cleaved by an unrivaled sharp Sword Light.
"It's over, I'm going to die…"
Ao Qiong immediately understood; his powerful Divine Soul cultivated over six thousand years couldn't withstand the opponent's single strike; he was doomed.
As his Divine Soul plunged into endless darkness, Ao Qiong saw Gao Xuan saying two words to him: "Thank you…"
