Her people had suffered too much humiliation, a burden she had carried since she was born. Now that all her efforts had failed, she was unwilling to give up her last bit of dignity.
Her heart was broken and her life was rapidly coming to an end, but she did not feel any fear, only a sense of relief.
"Forget it." The woman in golden armor sighed and retracted her sword.
She waved her arm lightly, and a shadow that looked almost exactly like her appeared beside her.
As she waved her hand, an invisible aura flowed from the phantom into her body. This aura was so chaotic, without a trace of power or law, but it was so pure and ethereal, as if all laws and all power could be born from it.
She clearly felt that her rapidly disappearing divine consciousness was re-condensing at an astonishing speed, while the other party's phantom containing wonderful magical powers was constantly shrinking until it disappeared.
She knew that in order to save her, the other party paid a heavy price, and tens of thousands of years of cultivation were turned into nothing.
She stared at him blankly, her mind racing. That strange, yet familiar face gradually overlapped with another person she knew well, becoming indistinguishable from the other.
…
Deep in her blood, the power was finally fully released. In almost an instant, she broke through the bottleneck, and endless power of heaven and earth surged in from all directions.
Sword Saint! She had actually reached the realm of Sword Saint.
The innate supernatural powers also awakened at the same time, and ancient and obscure chants kept echoing in the mind, as if they were innate.
"Boom!" With a loud noise, the dark beast was hit by Zhan Yuan's sword. The huge force instantly shattered its strong body, and streaks of blood flew like flames.
With a wail, the underworld beast disappeared from sight and returned to its own world.
But the huge phantom of the Demon Abyss Sword also paused, leaving Zhan Yuan no time to react. Mu Hanyan's sword light, which contained the power of three laws, had already fallen on him.
Zhan Yuan spat out a mouthful of blood and flew out like a kite with a broken string.
Just like Zhan Yuan, despite all his regrets, would never show mercy to Mu Hanyan, Mu Hanyan did the same. Taking advantage of Zhan Yuan's injury, Mu Hanyan flew forward and struck out with her sword once again.
As a former Demon Emperor, Zhan Yuan had rich practical experience. At the critical moment of life and death, he twisted his waist violently, forced himself to stabilize his body, and blocked in front of himself with a sword.
But just as the sword was about to be swung, Jiang Qiling's chanting sounded again, and a Nether Beast once again broke through the restrictions of the Netherworld, burning with the fire of the Netherworld, and slapped him hard.
Although his sword blocked Mu Hanyan's fatal attack, it also consumed a lot of physical strength. How could he withstand the brutal attack of the Nether Beast?
"Puff!" Zhan Yuan spat out another mouthful of blood, and his body flew out again before it landed on the ground.
However, his reaction to the enemy was indeed extraordinary. At the moment when he was knocked away by the underworld beast, he turned around and slashed it with his sword. The underworld beast also followed the fate of its companions, disappearing from sight with a spurting blood and wailing.
But Jiang Qiling's chanting had not yet ended. As soon as the underworld beast disappeared, another one appeared behind Zhan Yuan, roaring angrily, and Mu Hanyan's Hanxiao Sword once again chopped it down on the head without mercy.
