Chapter 1010: Twin Swords Slay the Flame Demon

At Li Luo's Heavenly Spirit Cover, a deep azure radiance shot up into the sky, and within that radiance, a Dragon Fang light sword, as if containing an ocean, slowly emerged.

With the appearance of this Water Dragon Fang Sword, the sword-chanting sound between heaven and earth instantly grew piercingly loud.

The world's energy also seemed to be drawn by an extremely powerful force, whistling over in droves to swirl around this Water Dragon Fang Sword.

The sword light pulsed, and even the void bore marks of being torn apart.

And with the appearance of this Water Dragon Fang Sword, from across this ancient plain, numerous gazes filled with shock were cast from afar, all having evidently sensed the sharpness of the sword Qi contained within Li Luo's Water Dragon Fang Sword.

Tian Miao furrowed his brow tightly. It seemed Li Luo had no intention of entangling with him for long, and had directly played his trump card, attempting to end the fight swiftly.

Tian Miao's gaze flickered, and he dared not be careless. Suddenly, crimson light appeared on his body, transforming into a crimson heavy armor. On the heavy armor, a purple vertical mark appeared, clearly a defensive Single Purple-Eye treasure.

At the same time, a crimson light point rose from Tian Miao's Heavenly Spirit Cover, transforming into a crimson fire pearl. The fire pearl spewed out flame after flame light shield, protecting him layer upon layer.

This man was also cautious, knowing Li Luo's attacks were extraordinary, so he deployed every defensive measure he had.

"As long as I endure through the peak of his sharpness, I can deal with him as I please afterward." A chill flashed through Tian Miao's eyes. He, a dignified half-step Xiao Tian Xiang Jing cultivator, had actually been pushed into such a disadvantage by a three-star Tian Zhu Jing—this was unbearable.

However, he was also a rational man, knowing that at this moment, face mattered not; survival came first.

Li Luo gazed from afar at those defenses resembling a turtle shell, layer upon layer, and his brow slightly lifted. This Tian Miao truly had a cautious nature. If he was determined to turtle up, even this Water Dragon Fang Sword might not be able to finish him in one strike.

"One Dragon Fang Sword won't do..."

"Then two it is."

Li Luo's eyes slightly lowered. The next instant, a verdant sword light brimming with vitality slowly rose from his Heavenly Spirit Cover, and along with it, a sword-chanting sound quite different from that of the Water Dragon Fang Sword also rang out.

When the verdant sword light appeared, the many plants on the plain below seemed to be infected by it at this moment, sprouting up one after another.

And above Li Luo's head, within the verdant sword light, a Dragon Fang Sword of emerald color also slowly condensed into form.

That was... the Wood Dragon Fang Sword.

After being tempered during this period in the Lingxiang Grotto-Heaven, the second Dragon Fang Sword of Li Luo's All-Phase Dragon Fang Sword Array... had finally been cultivated to completion.

Two Dragon Fang Swords hovered above Li Luo, two entirely different sword lights flickered, and the majestic sword Qi they emitted directly tore apart the clouds in the ten-thousand-zhang high sky, forming shapes resembling fish scales.

Two streams of sword Qi shot up into the sky, and that aura of lethal killing caused everyone present to change color.

Including Tian Miao, who had set up layer upon layer of defenses, attempting to wait at ease for the exhausted foe.

At this moment, the corner of his mouth twitched wildly. Earlier, when Li Luo had only one Dragon Fang Sword, he felt he should still be able to withstand it, believing he could ultimately survive. But with the appearance of this second Dragon Fang Sword, the sword Qi condensed together made Tian Miao's scalp tingle.

"Damn it, such terrifying sword Qi—this must at least be an upper-grade Divine-Tier Marquis Technique cultivated to Da Cheng Jing, right? But at his age and strength, how could he possibly achieve that?" Tian Miao roared in his heart. An upper-grade Divine-Tier Marquis Technique at Da Cheng Jing—let alone him, even among the previous generation's prodigies, few had reached this level.

Yet Li Luo paid no heed to Tian Miao's horror. He raised his head to gaze at the Wood Dragon Fang Sword condensed with so much painstaking effort, and gently exhaled.

Two Dragon Fang Swords—the sword Qi condensed together was indeed far more formidable than a single Dragon Fang Sword.

"I'll use you to consecrate the sword."

Li Luo's hands formed a seal, and he pointed down through the air.

Hum!

The next instant, the two Dragon Fang Swords shot up into the sky, directly transforming into two streams of sword light—one deep azure, one verdant. The sword lights sliced across the sky, the sword Qi so fierce it was as if even the heavens were split in two.

On the plain below, bottomless sword scars appeared out of thin air.

Watching the two towering sword lights rapidly enlarge in his pupils, Tian Miao let out a long howl toward the sky. Boundless crimson energy rolled in, rapidly condensing outside his body into a massive Flame Demon light-shadow, several hundred zhang tall, with four arms.

"Four-Arm Flame Demon Body!"

Under the threat of death, Tian Miao directly deployed his strongest Marquis Technique—this was a lower-grade Divine-Tier Marquis Technique from Yanmodian.

The Flame Demon roared, spewing ten-thousand-zhang flames from its mouth, charging head-on to meet the two majestic sword lights.

Whoosh!

Yet the Water Dragon Fang Sword swept through first. That sword light, as if containing a vast ocean, in an all-pervasive manner, instantly reduced the ten-thousand-zhang flames to nothingness.

Then the sword light tore across the sky, and amid numerous shocked gazes, viciously slashed down upon the Flame Demon's true body.

Boom!

A terrifying energy roar exploded across the sky. The energy storm poured out, sweeping across everything within a thousand li.

Numerous gazes focused on the Four-Arm Flame Demon.

Yet this "Four-Arm Flame Demon Body," which Tian Miao had pinned his hopes on, was not as indestructible as he had imagined. As the two Dragon Fang Swords slashed down, the Flame Demon body began to melt at a speed visible to the naked eye.

The sword Qi released by those two Dragon Fang Swords seemed capable of grinding away all matter.

In merely a few breaths of time, the Four-Arm Flame Demon Body vanished completely amid a wail.

The two sword lights lost none of their momentum. In a flash, they shattered the flame light shields outside Tian Miao's body with irresistible force, and the fire pearl protecting him overhead exploded on the spot.

Tian Miao's expression was one of horror as he retreated frantically, attempting to dodge.

The sword lights kept pouring in, tearing deep scars into the crimson treasure armor of Single Purple-Eye grade on his body.

"Li Luo, stop! I can withdraw from the fight between you! I'll take my people and leave right now!" Feeling that intense aura of death, Tian Miao finally felt fear and hurriedly roared.

Yet, facing Tian Miao's surrender, Li Luo's gaze was exceptionally cold.

The two sides had already fought to such a point that surrender was utterly meaningless. Li Luo had come out from the start with his strongest killing move—what he wanted was to use Tian Miao's life to intimidate Zhao, Qin, and the others.

Li Luo's hand seals shifted, and the two Dragon Fang Swords erupted with piercing sword-chanting sounds. In that instant, carrying majestic killing intent, they pierced straight through the crimson treasure armor outside Tian Miao's body with a thunderous crash.

Boom!

The sword light pierced through Tian Miao's back, and amid the roar, carved two bottomless sword holes directly into the ground below.

The treasure armor on Tian Miao's body shattered, revealing his pale, terrified face. He felt the two streams of sword Qi rampaging inside him—those two streams were overwhelmingly domineering, destroying everything within him with irresistible speed.

On the surface of his body, half of it began to melt, while from the other half, countless saplings actually sprouted out from flesh and blood.

Feeling his vitality rapidly draining away, boundless regret welled up in Tian Miao's eyes. He, a proud prodigy of Yanmodian, was actually going to perish here in the Lingxiang Grotto-Heaven?

Had he known this, he should never have meddled in the affairs between the two great Li Tianwang lineages!

Yet in this world, there is no regret medicine to take.

As Tian Miao's gradually stiffening body fell from the sky and slammed heavily onto the ground, the two sides that had been locked in chaotic battle abruptly came to a standstill at this moment.

One gaze after another stared at this scene in horror.

That Tian Miao, who had already half a foot into the Xiao Tian Xiang Jing, was actually slain by Li Luo in a single exchange?!

Although Li Luo had borrowed external power, under the suppression of the Spiritual Resonance Cave Heaven, that was at most only Xiao Tian Xiang Jing, and even Zhao Yan, who was also at Xiao Tian Xiang Jing strength, would find it very difficult to slay Tian Miao in a single exchange, wouldn't he?!

This Li Luo!

This fellow, who had only returned from Outer Shenzhou a year ago, was actually this powerful?!

In the distance, Zhu Zhu, Zhu Zhu Dayu, Senior Zong Sha, Jiang Jiang Wanyu and others of Li Li Tianwang's faction gazed with emotion at Li Luo's figure in midair, recalling what their elders had often said in ordinary days — the peerless bearing of Li Taixuan and Dantai Lan among their generation.

And at this moment, they felt that Li Luo would likely be no inferior to his parents, who had once astonished the entire Tianyuan Shenzhou.

Regardless, after this Spiritual Resonance Cave Heaven, the name Li Luo would surely resound throughout this Tianyuan Shenzhou.
