The sword veins surged upward like crashing waves.
Clang!
A heavy impact echoed, resonating through the mountains!
Lian Qingzong looked up in astonishment at the scene before him. Lu Fei Fan's Whale Devouring Sword was enveloped in brilliant energy, yet it was firmly grasped by his grandfather's Energy Giant Claw.
Lu Fei Fan gripped the sword, feeling the solid power akin to Iron Pincer acting as a fortress.
Most of the energy from the Whale Devouring Sword was neutralized, unable to break through the giant claw, which held onto the sword tightly.
"What a pity for that sword to be in your hands," Lian Chongtang said to Lu Fei Fan, his tone extremely provocative.
"Then let's see!" Lu Fei Fan suddenly surged with Pulse Energy, pulling the sword out from the massive claw as if it were a living thing. Lian Chongtang was taken aback; it was impossible. He was clearly several times stronger than Lu Fei Fan in terms of Pulse Energy, and besides, he was in the War God Realm while this fellow was merely a Special-Class General, barely touching the threshold of a Top War General. How could this happen?
In that fleeting moment of hesitation, Lu Fei Fan leaped again, and the lightning sphere atop his Whale Devouring Sword erupted with dazzling brilliance, descending like a galaxy crashing down!
Lian Chongtang's eyes widened as his claws emitted an astonishing glow to block it. His form erupted with a thick white light of Pulse Energy, quickly forming an incredibly hard Pulse Shield!
Boom!
Dust and stones flew, waves surged, and everything around them seemed swept away by a raging storm.
In the next second, before the thick smoke had dissipated, both figures fell like parabolas, crashing down onto the ground. Thud! Stones splintered as their landing spot on the stairs transformed into an astonishing crater.
"Good!" Lian Chongtang knelt on one knee and one fist on the ground, suddenly looking up at Lu Fei Fan above on the stairs, letting out a heartfelt cheer.
Lu Fei Fan knelt on the ground with one hand propped on his sword; the surrounding stairs had also become a remarkably destructive pit!
Lian Chongtang's Pulse Energy was impressively thick. Lu Fei Fan's previous strike had been with all his might, yet this old fellow had withstood it. Although his clothes were tattered, they revealed a battle vest underneath—an exquisite Dark Golden Special Battle Vest.
Lian Chongtang stood up proudly, tearing off the tattered clothes that clung to him, his gaze sharp as he looked at Lu Fei Fan.
"You have talent," Lian Chongtang said earnestly, fixing his eyes on Lu Fei Fan. "I don't know whether you are from the Free Federation or the Alliance Empire, but from this day forth, we are enemies. I cannot allow you to live."
"Hmph, you probably want to kill me to silence me," Lu Fei Fan retorted coldly. If it weren't for his greed alongside Bian Jian, betraying Yang Lao, perhaps Yang Lao's life would have taken a different turn.
Meanwhile, Lian Shuzhou and Lian Qingzong watched the unfolding battle. Although the thick fog obscured their view, they could clearly sense that both sides still retained their Pulse Energy; neither appeared to be at a disadvantage.
"Lian Qingzong, do you recognize that person?" Lian Shuzhou asked his son beside him.
Lian Qingzong shook his head. "No impression."
Lian Shuzhou's expression grew complex as he glanced back at the pursuing Dongfang Family. Dongfang Hui was watching them closely. "If someone else gets there first, then the White Emperor's Legacy..."
Lian Qingzong shuddered at the mention of this.
Bai Di had been a towering figure during the Ancient period when beasts ran rampant. He had slaughtered countless lord-level beasts and was one of humanity's legendary powers.
Every treasure he left behind was a top-tier artifact in the world. Bai Di Cheng was where he had ascended to legend and also where he had vanished; no one knew if he had died or ventured into another world.
It was known that he had left behind many treasures for humanity to prevent them from being overthrown by beasts. Whether it was techniques, weapons, armor, or rare fruits he cultivated, humans fought tooth and nail—even paying with their lives—to obtain them.
Perhaps this was not the outcome he wished to see, but humanity's inherent flaws were beyond his control and prediction.
"Father, is it confirmed that Bai Di Cheng will have the White Emperor's Legacy?" Lian Qingzong asked in disbelief.
"Bai Di Cheng will not only have the White Emperor's Legacy but also things that will surprise everyone," Lian Shuzhou replied enigmatically, as if he knew more secrets but chose not to elaborate.
Lian Qingzong wanted to ask more questions, but a Zhong Nian beside him, carrying a Wolf Fang Club, pressed a hand on him and gave him a look. Lian Qingzong turned to see what was happening.
Dongfang Hui and the others followed closely behind, just a dozen meters away.
"We'll keep up," Lian Shuzhou temporarily took the lead of the group, and everyone immediately perked up to continue following. Two of them were carrying a special square Metal Box each.
However, they had barely taken two steps when the two Metal Boxes suddenly broke free from their hands like kites with cut strings. A powerful Pulse Energy propelled them upward, and they shot through the mist, disappearing ahead.
The two individuals carrying the boxes were both at the level of Top War Generals, yet the boxes had inexplicably slipped from their grasp. Just as they were about to step forward and unleash their Pulse Energy to pursue, Lian Shuzhou raised his hand to stop them.
Lian Qingzong's expression changed slightly, showing concern.
"Father, Grandfather..."
"They should be fine. Let's quickly follow and take a look," Lian Shuzhou waved his hand, and everyone hastened to catch up.
The two Metal Boxes flew through the mist, crashing down like meteors on either side of Lian Chongtang, creating massive craters upon impact.
Lu Fei Fan peered through his Mask at the two Metal Boxes, clearly heavy objects.
"I didn't want to use this yet, but your sword has proven quite troublesome. I have no choice but to bring it out early to deal with you," Lian Chongtang half-kneeled, his hands enveloped in violent Pulse Energy as he thrust them into the two Metal Boxes.
The Metal Boxes exploded violently, and immediately after, shards of various sizes and shapes of flame-like metal surged out from within. They swiftly adhered to Lian Chongtang's arm like living creatures, forming an astonishing pair of claw-like gauntlets that were half the size of a human body!
What made Lu Fei Fan feel even more threatened was that the metal of these gauntlets burned with molten-like energy. These metals were unlike anything Lu Fei Fan had ever seen before; they were clearly top-tier materials that were either rare on the market or exceptionally special. Lian Chongtang must have spent considerable resources to forge them into gauntlets that fit him perfectly.
Lian Chongtang stood up, his Pulse Energy surging vigorously. The massive molten gauntlets radiated intense heat, with drops of molten-like Pulse Energy falling to the ground and creating pits.
"Using this to kill you should make you feel honored!" With that, Lian Chongtang's figure shot forward like a cannonball towards Lu Fei Fan.
Boom!
Lu Fei Fan raised his sword to block, and his entire body was sent flying, sliding along the stairs and carving a groove several meters long before he finally came to a stop. Before he could react, Lian Chongtang fell from mid-air.
The massive claw-like gauntlet closed into a gigantic paw, radiating a deadly heat that scorched the air around it. The dim atmosphere, filled with the sulfurous stench of molten lava, pressed down on Lu Fei Fan as if he were standing beneath a volcano. It resembled a sunset scene painted with blood-red clouds, yet amidst such a beautiful but ominous sight, there were always images that compelled one to remember.
Flashes of countless sunsets raced through Lu Fei Fan's mind. Suddenly, he grasped a particular line of scenery he had seen in one of those twilight moments.
He experienced an epiphany and dared not be careless. In a daze, the Whale Devouring Sword in his hand began to spin like flowing water. It whistled joyfully, completely unlike any ordinary sword.
The spinning sword resembled a radiant halo, its brilliance surging like a dazzling mirror that illuminated the darkened space around him.
As the Whale Devouring Sword spun, it erupted with layers upon layers of electric sparks. His fighting spirit surged; he didn’t know why, but facing Lian Chongtang, he felt no fear or hesitation. Instead, he sensed a hint of excitement, his eyes filled with determination.
“I’ve never tried this move before! This is a sword technique I just thought of… White Rainbow Piercing the Sun!”
The halo enveloped in boiling lightning shot forth like a white rainbow piercing through the sky, cascading white light as it charged toward Lian Chongtang with tremendous force!
Boom!
Lian Chongtang struck out with both claws, sending the intensely hot molten lava splashing several meters high. Yet that white rainbow-like sword light was forcefully blocked by him.
“Good! Good! Good!” Lian Chongtang stomped down hard, shattering countless stones on the stairs beneath him. A surge of pulse energy erupted from his body like a tidal wave, causing his massive gauntlets to emit sharp cutting sounds as they clashed together. With an enraged roar, he raised his claws and slammed down!
The ground shook violently!
That sword light resembling a white rainbow surged upward.
Lian Chongtang took several steps back, panting with relief. If he hadn’t been at the God of War level and supported by his thick pulse energy, there was no way he could have blocked such a strike or redirected its trajectory.
The sword light tore through the air as it ascended. Lian Shuzhou and Lian Qingzong halted their steps to watch this soaring sword light, while Dongfang Hui also abruptly stopped in his tracks, gazing at the dazzling white rainbow of Guanghua!
“The sword…” The masked figure beside him, Che, couldn’t help but exclaim in surprise.
Lian Shuzhou looked at the sword with deep concern and asked, “Lian Qingzong, if this person is not eliminated today, he will surely become your great enemy on the path of the sword in the future. If you want your Fire Cloud Sword to remain unmatched, you will inevitably have to contend with him.”
Lian Qingzong gazed at the sword, seemingly enlightened.
In the realm of swordsmanship, there were plenty of talents within the Free Federation, but not every one of them could grow into a monster of his or Dongfang Qiubai's caliber. After all, in the fierce competition and slaughter of sword cultivation, some talents would inevitably fall, paving the way for others' brilliance.
Lian Qingzong did not wish to be merely an embellishment for someone else's success. His Fire Cloud Sword was not lacking; what he needed was an opportunity. Yet that person above had taken away his chance. In such a short time, how could he have developed such a sword technique? Was it inherited from the Tomb of the Giant Whale or a result of his own epiphany?
Lian Qingzong's heart was filled with complexity, but he also saw something else. It turned out that swordsmanship could shine alongside the earth and dance with it. After all, that overwhelmingly powerful white rainbow amidst the swirling Shangu was dazzlingly brilliant.
Sometimes, an overly radiant light could also blind others.
When Lian Qingzong lifted his head again, he was calm yet filled with a fierce fighting spirit tinged with anger in his eyes.
Lian Shuzhou noticed the look in Lian Qingzong's eyes and was about to intervene. “Lian Qingzong…”
But Lian Qingzong suddenly drew his Fire Cloud Broad Sword from behind him. With flames swirling around the blade, he vanished in an instant, leaving only a shadow behind.
