Chapter 5815: Instinctive Response ⚡

Published: February 3, 2025

“Hmm?” The King of the Northern Heavens instantly drew his sword and retreated, staring at Qin Chen in disbelief. He had delivered a swift and fierce strike earlier, yet this Qin Chen was able to easily catch his emperor-level sword?

“Impressive! Senior King of the Northern Heavens, your casual strike contains such power that it can even cut through my hair and nearly injure me. Amazing!” Qin Chen sighed in admiration.

As he spoke, his energy flowed, and the crack on the hair that had been severed healed instantly.

Seeing this scene, the King of the Northern Heavens' pupils contracted, feeling a strong pressure.

A casual strike?

Although he had deliberately restrained the intensity of his attack because it was a spar, that previous move had already displayed nearly thirty percent of his strength.

“I cultivated the legendary-level technique, the heaven-destroying killing technique, integrating the true essence of killing within it. Only then did I manage to refine this year-destroying blade of recruitment. This Qin Chen not only saw through the truth and falsehood of my strike but also stopped it head-on without even breaking the skin!” The King of the Northern Heavens was stunned in his heart.

“In the Southern Cosmic Sea, I have faced many strong adversaries, including peak great emperors. Yet, under my year-destroying blade of recruitment, they struggled to defend themselves, and even with their full strength, they would suffer serious injuries. But this Qin Chen only had one hair severed, and it didn't even break completely?”

What seemed like a casual strike was, in fact, one of the King of the Northern Heavens' long-standing, hard-earned killing moves!

“Qin Chen, please receive my next attack!” The King of the Northern Heavens' expression became solemn. Knowing Qin Chen's strength, he no longer held back. The intense competitive spirit in his heart erupted at this moment.

He refused to believe that Qin Chen was truly that strong!

“Boom!”

A terrifying aura of killing intent suddenly surged from the King of the Northern Heavens' body.

Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom!

Accompanied by the explosion of this aura of killing intent, waves of killing pressure erupted from the King of the Northern Heavens, transforming into a surging river around him, creating an endless ocean of killing intent. In an instant, the hall where Qin Chen was located turned into a realm filled with killing intent.

“Qin Chen, this is the great destruction killing blade technique I cultivated through countless slaughters. Please advise!” the King of the Northern Heavens thundered.

As his voice fell, his form suddenly vanished, merging into the vast ocean of killing intent.

Splash! Splash!

The frightening ocean surged towards them. Below, Saroya was stunned to see that the surface of these waves seemed like an ocean formed by countless gathering killing intents, but in reality, they were condensed from countless blade lights.

Billions of blade lights converged into a vast ocean of killing intent, each with a terrifying might. When these billions of blade lights gathered, the power that erupted was truly earth-shattering.

“Rumble!”

The converged endless killing intent blade lights surprised Qin Chen.

“This… this ocean of blade intent is nearly taking shape comparable to the killing intent of the God of Inverse Slaughter in the Dead Sea.” Qin Chen's eyes lit up as he carefully observed this move of the King of the Northern Heavens.

Qin Chen had comprehended for a long time in the Dead Sea and had previously mastered the power of the Dead Sea wielded by the Senior God of Inverse Slaughter. Therefore, he did not take the killing intent released by the King of the Northern Heavens seriously.

This King of the Northern Heavens, known as the God of Slaughter in the Southern Cosmic Sea, guarded a divine nation's territory, with billions of legions perishing at his hands. However, compared to the likes of the Senior God of Inverse Slaughter, that killing intent was like a firefly in the light of a blazing sun, not even on the same level.
