Chapter 502 - 486: The Ultimate in the Mortal Realm (1/3)
He had only one chance!
Liu Baoqi was Linghu Xuan’s guard, responsible for his safety, and thus he would never unleash his full power and return to the Immortal Realm unless faced with a certain-death situation.
The Black Sword looked too ordinary from the outside, and it was even broken in half, making it hard to believe that this object, even if it had once been an Immortal Artifact, had now definitely lost its function, unable to exert any significant power.
Therefore, Liu Baoqi would surely choose to endure Zhou Heng’s strike; he was an Immortal of the Moonlight Realm, with a body fortified like a Divinity Transformation Realm Magic Artifact, not fearing any pure power strikes from the Mortal Realm.
Only when he realized the potency of the Sky-soaring Nine Forms and the Black Sword would he panic and think of fleeing back to the Immortal Realm!
Whether Liu could be killed depended on how much damage Zhou Heng could inflict in the brief moment it took for him to react.
Zhou Heng’s momentum reached its peak, and with a fierce sweep, he struck with his sword.
Shush, shush, shush—eight sword shadows sliced at once, then merged instantly into one sword, which he slashed towards Liu Baoqi.
It was as if a universe was evolving before his very eyes, depicting the process of birth, development, and destruction, making Liu Baoqi feel a mesmerizing dizziness, as if even the oppressive presence of the Creation King had vanished.
He wanted to reach out and touch that mysterious universe, but just as he moved his fingers, a terrifying pressure struck, rendering him immobile!
