Chapter 1040 Three Slashes Breaks Through The Nine Defense Lines, I’m Here, Why Don’t You Die
The sword shadow slashed through the void and went on straight with unstoppable momentum.
After the first defense line was destroyed, it carried the boundless sword qi storm towards the second defense line.
When the soldiers at the second defense line saw the gigantic sword shadow coming toward them, it forced a pale look on their faces.
“Sh*t!*
“Hurry up and put on the defensive formation!”
The warships started to line up in a specified formation and formed a huge light barrier.
However, when the sword shadow finally came down on them, it only stopped for less than a second before the whole defensive formation was cut through like paper.
The second defense line was torn apart and destroyed within the blink of an eye. Warships were destroyed one after another, leaving iron scraps floating in space. Even the guarding Immortal fell before the mighty sword shadow. The sword shadow’s momentum remained strong as it went straight for the third defense line.
Following a series of explosions, the third defense line, similar to the first and the second, was destroyed. However, it was after destroying the third defense line that the sword shadow’s power finally weakened.
Back at the starting point, Chu Kuangren put up his sword hand sign again and cast another sword shadow. He swung it down at the same trajectory as the first sword shadow.
By the time the first sword shadow reached the fourth defense line, it managed to take down at least half of the guarding warships before disintegrating into nothing.
Despite that, the second sword shadow came slashing with indomitable force before the remaining soldiers could catch a breath.
Since the second sword shadow was freshly cast, its strength and moment remained at their peak.
Bang!
The fourth defense line was destroyed and went straight for the fifth.
“I can’t let you destroy Bronze Heavenly Hall’s ideals so easily! Subduing Dragon Divine Slash!”
The guarding Immortal of the fifth defense line shouted as he amplified his strength with a certain secret technique. He, too, released a strike of his own at the incoming sword shadow.
The saber’s strength was as fierce as a dragon, and its aura was vast and ferocious.
Nevertheless, when the two forces clashed, the dragon shadow crumbled in an instant. It did not even slow down the sword shadow at all.
Just like that, the five defense lines were destroyed and swiftly followed by the sixth.
Back at the starting point, Chu Kuangren unleashed another strike.
After the second sword shadow’s momentum depleted, the third one followed right after and destroyed the remaining defense lines.
The remaining sword qi went straight towards Bronze Heavenly Hall.
The grand palace of Bronze Heavenly Hall released countless glowing Daoist patterns to form an enormous enchanted boundary that successfully stopped the remaining sword qi.
Meanwhile, inside the palace, the Grand Marshal reacted with a bitter look.
Three strikes!
That was all it took to destroy nine defense lines, turn millions of warships into scraps, and kill hundreds of millions of cultivators. Even the offensive formation he prepared did not get the chance to activate.
“How is he so powerful? Who is he exactly?!”
The Grand Marshal finally felt afraid. He was a veteran on the battlefield, and fear was never an issue until now.
Countless iron scraps and shattered star pieces floated in space as if they were tombstones for the fallen cultivators.
Everything went silent, dead silent!
Further away from Bronze Heavenly Hall, those cultivators who came to watch could not help but quiver before the scene in fear, and they glued their eyes to the inconceivable scene.
Three strikes had killed almost a billion soldiers and destroyed millions of warships.
What kind of power was that?
“Devil! He must be the devil reincarnated!”
“Run! Run now!”
The soldiers of the defense lines that had managed to survive all three strikes started to feel a sense of fear.
When they regained their senses, all of them fled in a frenzy.
Chu Kuangren did not care about the ants that he missed. There was no value in killing defeated soldiers anyway.
After what he did, should those men see him in the future, they would either be scared to death or flee with their lives if they could hold themselves together.
“M-Monster!”
The cultivators who came to watch were trembling in fear as well. Most of them had thought that Chu Kuangren would be the one to lose in this battle against the Bronze Heavenly Hall. However, it seemed like the exact opposite now.
The one in danger was not Chu Kuangren but the Bronze Heavenly Hall!
Seeing Chu Kuangren’s magnificent battle boosted the Fox Tribe Forefather’s, Gu clan’s Gu Xing’s, and the others’ morales. It also strengthened their determination to follow him to the end of time.
“Let’s go,” Chu Kuangren said when he returned to the warship.
“Yes, Master.”
Gu Wuqing steered the warship closer to Bronze Heavenly Hall.
As Chu Kuangren closed in on them, the people in Bronze Heavenly Hall began to panic like never before.
The three strikes from Chu Kuangren did not only break through all the defense line, but they also crushed the will of those inside the hall.
“Calm down!” the Grand Marshal bellowed, trying to calm the panicking crowd. “We haven’t lost! We Bronze Heavenly Hall has one more trump card in our sleeve!”
“Go and open the Great Nine-Dragon Formation! I will use it to kill this person!!” the Grand Marshal bellowed.
His words reignited a small hope in the Bronze Heavenly Hall’s cultivators.
“Yeah, that’s right. We still have the Great Nine-Dragon Formation! It has been the Bronze Heavenly Hall’s trump card for so long! That can definitely kill this person!”
“Hurry! Hurry up and get it ready!”
When the Bronze Heavenly Hall was first built, they had constructed an Immortal formation inside its structure.
The Immortal formation was extremely powerful. Once activated, even a common Immortal helming the formation would gain the power to kill a Ninth Grade Immortal!
A Ninth Grade Immortal?!
Throughout the entire Jade Emperor Galaxy, there was only one Ninth-grade Immortal, and that was the Bronze Heavenly Hall Ruler. The other Immortals within the galaxy were not even at the Third Grade.
Therefore, the Bronze Heavenly Hall Ruler was also known as the most astounding sky-pride of the hall.
“Grand Marshal, His Majesty is currently in closed-door meditation. You will have to helm the Great Nine-Dragon Formation to kill Chu Kuangren!”
“Yes!”
“We will follow you to the end of time and stand up against our enemy!”
They were the higher-ups of Bronze Heavenly Hall, and Chu Kuangren had made it clear that he would spare those who surrender, except the higher-ups. In other words, they were the ones Chu Kuangren came to kill.
As for fleeing? It had never occurred to them before because if they had so much as a step away, the Grand Marshal would take their lives first.
Hence, their only option was to fight Chu Kuangren.
Bang!
A loud explosion came from outside the hall.
The enchanted boundary outside the palace started to shake.
“He’s here!”
The Grand Marshal’s gaze grew darker.
Warship after warship arrived above the palace and started to bombard the enchanted boundary with rays of light.
However, Bronze Heavenly Hall’s enchanted boundary was strong. No matter how much the warships bombarded, it did nothing but shake it.
The higher-ups of the hall sighed a breath of relief, but there was no joy on the Grand Marshal’s face.
He knew that the real danger was not the bombarding warships but that particular person.
Then, the bombardment suddenly stopped, and it turned quiet outside.
Amidst the silence, a white-robed figure descended from the sky with a terrifying aura overflowing:
Everyone stared at the figure in fear.
Chu Kuangren landed toes first on the enchanted boundary. Following a loud bang, the whole palace trembled violently.
The almost indestructible enchanted boundary trembled because of Chu Kuangren’s stomp.
Cracks started to appear and spread. In less than a second, the enchanted boundary shattered into smithereens like a broken mirror.
After the enchanted boundary shattered, Chu Kuangren landed on the floor of the palace.
His landing crumbled almost half of the structure, and violent strength qi wreaked havoc in all directions, sending all the cultivators flying
Those with weaker cultivation levels died on the spot.
“Now that I’m here, are you mongrels prepared to face your deaths?”
