This thought came quietly from the depths of the Abyss of Eternal Silence, where the Underworld Deity had been lurking.
“Hm?”
When the Underworld Deity’s gaze landed on Qin Chen, his brow involuntarily furrowed.
From Qin Chen, he faintly sensed an invisible fateful bond, as if this person before him shared some special connection with him.
“My earlier perception was not wrong. This person truly has a special connection with me. Strange, why do I have this feeling?”
The Underworld Deity looked puzzled. After lurking in the abyss for countless years, this was the first time he had encountered someone who could evoke such a response in him.
“Who exactly is this?”
His expression grew grave. He had a vague sense that this person’s arrival would bring about a significant change to his survival in the abyss.
“No, the divine weapon in this person’s hand...”
Suddenly, the Underworld Deity’s gaze fell on the divine weapon in Qin Chen’s hand. At once, a faint feeling of familiarity stirred within him.
“Though this weapon conceals its true form and carries a high-dimensional aura of destruction, why do I have the sense that I’ve seen it before?”
The Underworld Deity frowned. He was certain that he had encountered this divine weapon in the past.
“Where exactly have I seen it?”
His gaze hardened as he fixed it on Qin Chen, who was currently battling the clone of the master of destruction path.
“Clang clang clang...”
At this moment, Qin Chen wielded the inverse kill divine sword. The rudiments of the great path of destruction in his swordsmanship had taken shape. His sword techniques were comprehensive, further empowered by the endless cutting force brought by the power of destruction.
Puff, puff, puff!
The inverse kill divine sword clashed countless times against the clone of the master of destruction path. Although the black battle armor weakened the strikes, the clone’s body was still riddled with wounds.
Meanwhile, the operation of the great path of destruction within the clone was clearly revealed to Qin Chen’s perception.
“Compared to the clone’s use of the destruction path, my own application of the abyssal path of destruction is still too immature. At best, I possess some special accomplishment only in the aspect of slaughter. This results in my manipulation of the primordial power being clumsy and far from unleashing my true potential.”
Facing the clone—the most proficient practitioner of destruction path in the entire abyss—Qin Chen immediately noticed many imperfections in his fledgling great path of destruction.
“If I could fully master the path of destruction, even with my cultivation only at the domain lord level, a single strike would sever this clone, causing its primordial essence to collapse. But now, I have merely severely wounded it.”
Qin Chen controlled the energy bursts so that each sword move was slightly superior in power. The clone could only instinctively rely on its mastery of the path of destruction to compensate.
On the surface, the clone managed to hold Qin Chen at bay for a while.
“Damn it,” Qin Chen muttered in frustration, his entire being filled with anxiety.
“Kill, kill, kill!”
He shouted fiercely, the sword light cascading like a waterfall, wildly slashing at the clone.
Clang clang clang clang!
The clone’s black battle armor was now pierced with countless wounds, riddled and about to collapse.
After all, it was just a clone and couldn’t withstand Qin Chen’s relentless assault.
Moreover, the sword qi from Qin Chen’s inverse kill divine sword contained a terrifying aura of slaughter. This aura acted like blades that penetrated everywhere, mercilessly cutting through every part of the clone’s body.
“Killing rules?”
The Underworld Deity, hidden in the shadows, sensed this power. Suddenly, a flash of lightning seemed to explode in the depths of his mind, like thunder cracking through a clear sky.
“This sword... could it really be the inverse kill divine sword of the god of inverse slaughter?”
