THE LEGEND OF THE SWORD GOD S2

V5CH #252 ARRIVING IN THE NORTHERN CONTINENT

“Alright! Let's fly to the Northern Continent. If that Demon Beast was indeed a Demon Beast that had killed your friend, Zhi Qing. It meant that he was an Ancient Demon Beast whose strength was on par with those of Divine Beasts. We must arrive to the Northern Continent as soon as possible.”

The power of an Ancient Demon Beast was not a power that could be resisted by cultivators from Planet Dreamland or Fire Kings from the Continent of Atlantis. Only Divine Beasts were capable of resisting the power of those Ancient Demon Beasts, but those Divine Beasts also had to use their main bodies in order to bring out the full power they possessed.

Emperor Feng Cheng directly descended from the Gremlin's back because he didn't want to hold Heilong back for too long. After all, the distance between the Southern Continent and the Northern Continent was very far.

“I will use the power of space law to make dimensional cracks so that our travel time becomes shorter. Master must remain vigilant because cosmic storms often occur inside a dimensional hole.”

The Gremlin immediately flew into the sky and used its sharp claws to tear apart space and create a ten-meter-long dimensional crack. He deliberately made a dimensional crack in the sky because he did not want the inhabitants of the Southern Continent to be dragged inside.

As soon as the dimensional crack started to stabilize slightly, the Gremlin immediately brought Heilong inside. And, that dimensional pressure instantly disappeared the equivalent of the two of them going inside because the dimensional crack was created in the absence of a foundation to maintain its existence.

Northern Continent.

The North Continent is usually always so quiet and calm because the air temperature is so cold that it pierces into the skin. Suddenly it was now a battlefield filled with cultivators as well as the Devil Nation.

Emperor Xuan Wu led all the soldiers of the Green Tortoise Kingdom and several large clans that existed in the Northern Continent to fight a gigantic Demon Beast. Of course the people who had accompanied Heilong in the war against the Devil Nation a few years ago were also here.

As for the demon soldiers, though, they were all handled by the Bamboo Saung Pavilion and the Snow Jade Sect led directly by former Emperor Xuan De because Xue Xian Hou and Yang Zhu were fighting against Demon General Minmei.

Fire Lord Lilla also gained a fairly balanced opponent as he had to fight against the Last Demon General whose cultivation level had also increased to God Level.

Xue Xian Hou and Yang Zhu seemed to be in a disadvantaged condition as the two of them had to fight against Demon General Minmei who was already at the God Level with only a cultivation level that was still at grand Emperor Peak.

...“Flying Knife Shaking the Sky.”...

Shi Tian ended up using the strongest Measures he had to fight the Demon Beasts that were in the middle of the battlefield because these Demon Beasts could cripple all the moves he had used before.

Thousands of silver blades instantly appeared and shot straight towards the Demon Beast as if this was turning it into minced meat.

This was the last move he could use because his old body did not have much Qi reserves. Therefore, he put all the remaining Qi within his body into those silver blades.

Emperor Xuan Wu and General Lian Zhou also issued their respective mainstay moves to kill this Demon Beast due to its appearance a few hours ago, These Demon Beasts had killed thousands of warriors and some quite strong cultivators from the various Clans.

...“Ocean Destruction Trident.”...

An extremely violent wind storm instantly appeared and moved towards the place where the Demon Beast was as General Lian Zhou swung his navel trident.

This attack was also the last attack that General Lian Zhou had because the Qi that was within his body was also thinning.

...“Ice Dragon Crashing Storm.”...

Roars …

The shadow of the Giant Ice Dragon instantly emerged from Emperor Xuan Wu's spear as he used his flagship skill.

The combination of the power of the ice element and the heirloom spear that Emperor Xuan Wu possessed was able to cast a shadow of an ice dragon that was close to the original.

These three great powers merged into a moment and shot straight towards where the Ancient Demon Beast was.

The Ancient Demon Beasts only narrowed their eyes and did not attempt to dodge in the slightest as the combined attacks of the three strongest cultivators the Northern Continent possessed began to approach its place. He felt that the attack would not even be able to pierce through his thick enough feathers.

A powerful explosion accompanied by a powerful enough shake instantly appeared when the attack hit the body of the Demon Beast.

However, the Demon Beast did not suffer any injuries at all. He did not even move from where he stood.

“Truly a very powerful Demon Beast. If only the boy was in this place, it might appear a little miracle.” Shi Tian let out a long sigh while shaking his head. He no longer knew how to defeat this Demon Beast.

“Just relax, he will definitely come to this place because he has someone he must protect in this Northern Continent.” General Lian Zhou seemed to know who the person Shi Tian called the boy was because of which he immediately gave a response.

“I just got word from Emperor Feng Cheng that Heilong is heading to the Northern Continent. It also had an extremely powerful Beast and the Beast's strength was equivalent to the power possessed by Divine Beasts. Let's try to buy time while waiting until he comes to this place.”

This remark of Emperor Xuan Wu had given a glimmer of hope to the entire Northern Continent. Shi Tian and General Lian Zhou, who had looked desperate, immediately got back up and were ready to return to the battlefield.

“The three of you I suggest to just give up and join the Devil Nation. I can recommend you to the Demon King so that the three of you get a high enough position within the Demon Kingdom. It would be a pity if I had to kill a warrior who had as good a talent as you.”

That Demon Beast tried to persuade Emperor Xuan Wu, then, Generals Lian Zhou and Shi Tian wanted to join the Devil Nation because they knew that the Devil Nation had lost some of its best Demon Generals during this great war. Otherwise, he would definitely remain on guard in the Central Continent and would not be able to help the Demon Generals to attack.

“I'd rather die than submit to the Devil Nation! You must remember that I am the Emperor who leads this Northern Continent. How can I cooperate with the beings who have broken the peace in my territory and made all my people miserable.” Emperor Xuan Wu decisively directly rejected the invitation of the Demon Beast.

“True once! I also chose to end my own life rather than have to submit to the Devil Nation.” General Lian Zhou of course supported Emperor Xuan Wu's remark as he was the most loyal official in the Green Tortoise Kingdom.

“I also have the same answer. Until anytime ... I will never submit to the Devil Nation,” Shi Tian exclaimed firmly. Even though his body was no longer young, the courage he had in no way diminished.

The Demon Beast gritted his teeth in annoyance. This was the first time he could not get what he wanted. “The three of you are indeed very stubborn humans. Maybe from the beginning I should have killed the three of you first to set an example for the weak humans that are in this place.”

“Nobody ever begged you for mercy. You don't talk as if the three of us are human beings who are afraid of death. You should know that the destiny of life and death is not in your hands,” replied Emperor Xuan Wu provoking a debate to buy time.

“In this place I am the most powerful being. If it is not me who determines the destiny of life and death of all of you, then who can,” replied the arrogant Demon Beast.

The Demon Beast tried as much as possible to hold back his anger because he was actually curious enough by the reason these humans had that they all had such a strong determination despite being in an unfavorable state.

“Of course only the Creator has the right to determine the destiny between life and death of his created being. You don't be like a beast who forgets its eggs. You must remember where you came from,” Shi Tian replied.

“It turns out the three of you can only utter such nonsense. I guess you guys will have a more interesting answer. I'd rather just kill you guys than keep wasting my time.”

The Demon Beast that had lost its patience instantly opened its mouth wide and shot out a pitch-black fireball that had an extremely high temperature.

“Feel my fire attack. The three of you will definitely die without leaving a corpse.” The Demon Beast let out a crisp laugh after unleashing an attack towards the three of them.

Roars ...

The roar of an extremely terrifying Beast suddenly resounded in the sky and made a person look up to see the figure of a creature could emit such a terrifying sound.

However, Emperor Xuan Wu, Shi Tian and General Lian Zhou were unable to do so because the lives of the three of them were in danger.

Swost ....

Suddenly a youngster appeared in front of them as the attack from the Demon Beast was only about ten rare away from where they were.

The air temperature in this place instantly decreased very quickly as the young man raised his sword towards the sky.

...“Ice Wall Mirror.”...
