Chapter 570 Counter Attack (2/2)
Shen Lian let out a child-like smile and shook the void with his divine thoughts, ”Do you still insist on putting me to death?”
Under such intense situation, Shen Lian still had the leisure to release his divine thoughts across the void. This showed that he was calm and confident and it was effective in putting Emperor Xia under more pressure.
Emperor Xia's iron body was like a golden hooped rod. It made people feel that his determination would never be shaken even under immense pressure. He let out a hint of killing vibes and it changed the atmosphere of the void into the horrifying Asura bloodbath.
At the same time, inch by inch, a jet black blade started to emerge on his hand as hints of magical powers revealed itself and sent chills down in the void. But what was really terrifying was that the chills actually felt scorching hot and it melted the bright clouds below Shen Lian's feet, causing him to stand without any support in the void.
Shen Lian felt the chills of the demonic blade. In fact, he could also sense the hatred within the chills. Besides the demonic will, the blade also consisted the demonic thoughts that Shen Lian had gotten rid off.
The feeling of being abandoned would definitely cause hatred.
Shen Lian did not focus on the blade. Instead, he fixed it on Emperor Xia's decisive gaze.
Emperor Xia did not respond to Shen Lian verbally and used his actions to speak for him.
Shen Lian let out a smile. He seemed more relaxed once he had to deal with the leveled up Emperor Xia. At the same time, the portrait of his Primordial Spirit had cut off all connections with the Qi of vitality of the heaven and earth and became a lot more condensed. He looked similar to any other ordinary person as if his physical body had blended into one with the Primordial Spirit.
The moment Shen Lian finished gathering his Qi dynamics, Emperor Xia immediately charged his blade forward. There were no vibrations in the void, it felt like a steady flow of water in a man-made canal.
Emperor Xia's attack was steady as a rock. It was not flashy but it was set to kill and inflict harm. At that point, Shen Lian felt that eventually, he would have to suffer from a stab regardless of how well he played.
Emperor Xia's action was the 'cause' and Shen Lian suffering from the stab was the 'effect'. Just like blooming and wilting of the flowers, these were unchangeable principles of the heaven and earth. The hint of demonic thoughts that Shen Lian abandoned was the reason why Emperor Xia was able to use this Blade of Karma against Shen Lian. This blade was indeed an evidence to indicate Emperor Xia's wisdom.
Shen Lian had neither the incarnation of the wind and rain nor the Milky Way swordsmanship to help him fight against the blade. He extended both his crystal clear palms and brought out the exquisite killing method.
It was an upgraded version of the creation and evolution technique of the thirty-six heavenly transformation. When it landed on Emperor Xia's spiritual sense, Shen Lian's palms threw a counterattack, just like the catkins that came from the wind. It was a light one but it triggered thousands of reactions from the blade.
The exquisiteness of the palm method profoundly interpreted the laws of heaven and earth. Snow started to fall into the void and yet the demonic blade showed no signs of melting. In a split second, Shen Lian disappeared within the snow, leaving no traces behind.
