“The power of the mysterious rust sword has actually increased so much?” Qin Chen was also surprised. He hadn’t even used much strength; with a single swing, the power of the mysterious rust sword was already approaching that of the full-force strike from the Half Yue Ancient Sword, perhaps even surpassing it. What level of treasure weapon was this? Qin Chen himself was shocked.
After devouring the blood essence of the Holy Realm, the mysterious rust sword seemed to have risen a level. Xu Hantian was even more astonished; he stared intently at the mysterious rust sword in Qin Chen's hand, roaring in his heart that this was absolutely not an ordinary imperial weapon. If it were a peak imperial weapon, it would still be difficult to wound him with a single strike. The gauntlets on his fists were also ancient imperial weapons, not ordinary treasure weapons.
He lowered his head, looking at his gauntlets, and gasped in shock. A small scratch had actually appeared on the gauntlets. Damn! This was an imperial weapon; how could it be damaged?
“Hahaha, come and fight!” Qin Chen laughed heartily, feeling even more accomplished as he urged the mysterious rust sword to slash repeatedly. Instantly, sword qi soared into the sky, forcing Xu Hantian to be pushed back, and he didn’t dare to engage head-on. Of course, after being wounded by a single sword, how could Xu Hantian dare to clash directly without understanding the power of the opponent’s weapon? He could only continuously activate the heavenly killing formation, attacking Qin Chen frantically.
The overwhelming might of his punches swept over like a vast ocean, rushing towards Qin Chen incessantly. “What if I use the Nine Star Divine Emperor Technique to fully activate the mysterious rust sword?” Suddenly, a thought popped into Qin Chen's mind. As soon as he thought of it, he immediately operated the Nine Star Divine Emperor Technique with all his might, channeling all of his true essence into the mysterious rust sword.
Crackle… The mysterious rust sword emitted a terrifying brilliance, exuding supreme pressure, and even the sword body trembled, shaking the void. “So strong!” Qin Chen felt that the aura emanating from the mysterious rust sword at this moment was somewhat similar to when Lao Yuan was helping him with all his strength, reaching a higher realm. This power was monstrous, enough to even wound Qin Chen himself.
How terrifying! Qin Chen was secretly alarmed and didn’t dare to continue urging it further; he directly slashed out with a sword. “Pff!” Instantly, the sword light plunged into the ocean of punches, as if a hot knife was thrust into butter. Where the pitch-black sword light passed, the overwhelming punch power exploded and was easily parted.
“Whoosh!” The sword light flickered and suddenly appeared in front of Xu Hantian. “Not good!” Xu Hantian was greatly alarmed, his hair standing on end, sensing the approach of death. His brows twitched violently; he dared not take it head-on and hurriedly summoned a pitch-black shield to block in front of himself. This was an imperial-grade defensive shield. Although it was much weaker than the Gaang Yuan Formation Armor, it was still a rare top-tier shield.
Bang! The sword qi hit the shield with a crisp sound, instantly shattering the shield. The sword qi continued to slash through almost unhindered. Xu Hantian’s heart trembled; he hadn’t expected the power of this sword light to be so terrifying. In shock, he hurriedly dodged. Whoosh, the sword light grazed past his Gaang Yuan Formation Armor, producing a piercing friction sound, and a fine groove appeared on it.
If he hadn’t evaded quickly, a direct strike would have inflicted even greater damage on his armor. Swish! The sword light passed by and finally landed on a nearby formation, erupting with a loud roar. The formation exploded violently with a thunderous sound. This top-tier ninth-level late-stage formation was almost slashed to pieces by a single sword, emitting a rumbling sound.
