Chapter 1576: Sword Prison Suppresses the Bones

Hum!

The deep and vast, gloomy Sword Prison pressed down like a black hole, filled with indescribably sharp sword Qi, whose majestic force transformed into dragon shadows and sword embryos flowing and weaving within.

Even the energy of heaven and earth that fell into it seemed to be ground down by that razor-sharp sword Qi into the most primordial energy particles, scattering through the world.

This was the first time Li Luo had unleashed "Five Dragon Fangs" since he had cultivated the Many-Aspect Dragon Fang Sword Array.

And that fifth Dragon Fang Sword was the "Earth Dragon Fang Sword," formed by fusing the power of the Earth Aspect with the power of the Dragon Aspect.

Strictly speaking, only at the level of "Five Dragon Fangs" could this "Many-Aspect Dragon Fang Sword Array" truly be said to have reached the Unrivaled tier.

This art uses the dragon fang as its edge, and the dragon fang is itself the most lethal part of a dragon's body; transforming it into sword intent, the sharpness and ferocity of that sword Qi is enough to pierce through every substance in the world.

Therefore, it is only now that this "Many-Aspect Dragon Fang Sword Array" begins to reveal its true majesty to the world.

In Li Luo's purple-gold dragon pupils, the vast, deep Sword Prison was reflected, and waves rose in his heart. Although he now also mastered the "Twelve-Wing Holy Spirit Sword Dance Art," a light-attribute Unrivaled Art, what he truly loved in his heart was still this "Unrivaled Embryo Art" that had accompanied him for many years.

This art was an extremely good match for his Many-Aspect Seed, and Five Dragon Fangs was not even the limit he could reach.

He now bore eight Aspects within him; if he could condense all of them into Dragon Fang Swords, he could also form "Crystal Dragon Fang Sword" and "Ice Dragon Fang Sword," and when he truly cultivated "Seven Dragon Fangs," the might of this "Many-Aspect Dragon Fang Sword Array" would likely reach an extremely terrifying level.

That step was perhaps something even the art's creator, Ancestor Li Jun, had never anticipated.

Therefore, the "Many-Aspect Dragon Fang Sword Array" had great potential.

While these emotions flashed through Li Luo's heart, the deep, black-hole-like "Annihilation Sword Prison" had already collided with that sky-covering bone giant hand.

Countless eerie, blood-colored runes flickered atop the bone giant hand, like distorted, agonized human faces.

The bone giant hand plunged directly into the Annihilation Sword Prison. The next instant, Annihilation Sword Light, sharp enough to pierce through all things in the world, gushed forth, condensing into Annihilation Dragons whose mere sight made one's eyes sting unbearably; these Annihilation Dragons writhed and slithered, sword Qi running rampant.

Like a mill of destruction, that razor-sharp sword Qi and sword Light crushed and ground into dust every substance within.

Deep cracks immediately appeared on the bone giant palm, the cracks smooth as mirrors.

Even the most stubborn evil thoughts could not withstand the scouring of hundreds of millions of sword Light within this Annihilation Sword Prison.

Boom!

In the end, the bone giant palm finally reached its limit. The countless eerie runes upon it seemed to erupt in shrill, agonized wails, and then exploded with a thunderous crash.

That attack from the bone giant pagoda, comparable to a False King's full-power strike, was utterly defeated beneath Li Luo's "Annihilation Sword Prison."

The Celestial Dragon that Li Luo had transformed into let out an earth-shaking dragon roar. Without the slightest hesitation, the "Annihilation Sword Prison" transformed into a flood of sword Light pouring down, slamming viciously into that bone giant pagoda.

Boom!

Terrifying sword Light ran rampant, tearing this stretch of earth into chasms tens of thousands of zhang deep; some of the surrounding mountain ranges were caught in the blast and sliced flat with swishing sounds.

Countless bones on the bone giant pagoda let out hissing wails, one after another ground into ash all over the ground by the sword light.

Boom!

From within the shattered bone giant pagoda rose a roar filled with fury and slaughter. A giant figure emerged from within—a bloated giant some dozens of meters tall. Upon its massive body, ten agonizingly distorted human heads squirmed, looking extremely terrifying.

A terrifying aura of evil thoughts also erupted from its body.

"Just an unformed False King."

Yet Li Luo, seeing this, paid it no heed. This bloated aberration should be the second False King gestated within the bone giant pagoda, but unfortunately its final fusion had been interrupted by him. Right now, it was still only at the level of a ninth-grade True Demon; it was simply that because too many aberrations had been fused into it, this power was extremely vast and mottled.

Thus, with a single thought from Li Luo, the Annihilation Sword Prison directly enveloped this bloated aberration. Sword light surged and ran rampant; the bloated aberration erupted with powerful evil-thought energy in an attempt to resist stubbornly, but how sharp and domineering was the sword light within the Sword Prison? In the span of a few short moments, amid its shrill wails, it was sliced and ground alive.

At this point, this Black Rain Watchtower and the second False King gestated within were utterly destroyed at Li Luo's hands.

And with the annihilation of these two, the evil-thought black clouds stretching tens of thousands of li across the sky began to recede, and the raging black rain gradually weakened along with them.

Such an obvious change was immediately detected by the army of Li Li Tianwang's lineage, and they instantly erupted in earth-shaking cheers; their pressure suddenly plummeted at this moment.

The tense expressions of the three branch leaders—Dantai Lan, Li Li Tianji, and Li Li Qingying—also gradually eased, a look of joy surfacing in their eyes.

"Good, worthy of being the sixth branch leader of our Dragon Fang Lineage, truly a formidable younger generation. They should take the greatest credit this time!" Li Li Tianji could not help but say joyfully.

"Saying these things is useless. Since it's the greatest credit, then it should be given sufficient reward." Dantai Lan pursed her lips and said.

Li Li Tianji smiled and said, "Then what reward does Branch Leader Dantai think should be given?"

"That true 'Dragon Holy Seed' from your Li Li Tianwang lineage should be handed over to little Luo by now, right? And you should have Unrivaled Arts too, shouldn't you? When are you going to bring them out for us to observe?" Dantai Lan said leisurely, her hands tucked into the pockets of her purple coat.

Li Li Tianji's old face stiffened. This Dantai Lan's appetite was truly enormous—Dragon Holy Seed, Unrivaled Arts...

In the past, Li Li Tianji would surely have had plenty of excuses to stall, but after thinking of Li Luo and Jiang Qing's current identities and potential, he was silent for a few breaths and said, "Branch Leader Dantai, rest assured. Li Luo and Jiang Jiang Qinge are tied to the future prosperity of our Li Li Tianwang lineage; we won't treat them poorly."

Dantai Lan glanced at Li Li Tianji, a slight surprise stirring in her heart. She had only been making an outrageous demand, but she hadn't expected this branch leader in charge of the mountain to not haggle with her as in the past, and instead acquiesce so cleanly.

The speed of this change in attitude even made Dantai Lan admire this old fox for a moment. Although she disliked Li Li Tianji because of what happened back then, she had to admit that as the branch leader in charge of the mountain for Li Li Tianwang's lineage, this old fox had done far better than Qin Jiujie of the Qin Li Tianwang lineage, or the current Qin Zhongyuan.

No wonder Li Li Tianwang trusted him so much; even after a hundred years away, he could rest easy.

"The black rain is about to recede; it's time for us to act and completely end this strange calamity." Li Li Tianji raised his head, looking at the evil-thought black clouds beginning to recede in the sky, visibly relieved.

Meanwhile, at the shattered Black Rain Watchtower, the Celestial Dragon Li Luo had transformed into circled in the sky. He raised his dragon head, his gaze looking toward the higher void, where the space showed a fractured state, and beyond the spatial cracks was a somewhat familiar space—that was the Boundary River Domain.

At the same time, he also saw that blood bridge emanating an unsettling aura; upon the blood bridge, a mottled stone tablet came into view.

On the stone tablet were five bloody ancient characters.

"True Kings may not enter?"

Li Luo was startled, then suddenly understood. Sure enough, it was the "Heaven King's Edict" here that had changed, leading to the birth of the False King.

But how could this "Heaven King's Edict" have changed? This shouldn't be the doing of that Three-Pupil Fetal Great Demon King, right? Otherwise it would have done this long ago, instead of waiting until the situation had somewhat deteriorated before starting.

Some doubts rose in Li Luo's heart.

And while Li Luo circled the sky here, in a certain place within the dark black giant pit, Qin Jiujie and the Spirit Eye Underworld King also frowned because of this turn of events.

"This Li Luo and Jiang Jiang Qinge are really troublesome—they even defeated a False King. Even an Unrivaled Sixth-Grade shouldn't be this monstrous, right?" the Spirit Eye Underworld King said.

"An ordinary Unrivaled Sixth-Grade naturally wouldn't be this monstrous, but an Unrivaled Sixth-Grade bearing a Many-Aspect Seed and an Original Seed is very monstrous," Qin Jiujie said.

"I said long ago that these two would be a calamity; the Unity Society should have eliminated them sooner."

The Spirit Eye Underworld King gave no opinion: "Forget him. The Fate Fruit has ripened; prepare to pluck it."

As he spoke, he turned around, and one could see that in the black abyss behind, a grand ritual was underway. Vast waves of vitality, hidden beneath the extremely dense and surging evil-thought energy here, continuously converged.

In the end, a golden fruit took shape.

That fruit was incomparably wondrous, as if a breath of boundless vitality flowed within it, with halos like nebulae circling around it, and within seemed to be life and death alternating, all things growing.

Boom!

However, just as Spirit Eye Underworld King and Qin Jiujie were admiring this formed Fate Fruit, the abyss suddenly trembled, and the next instant, vast sword-light split open the abyssal earth, and at once a beam of light shone down from above.

Spirit Eye Underworld King and Qin Jiujie's eyes darkened, and they jerked their heads up.

They saw a colossal Celestial Dragon head, spewing dragon breath, bursting through the earth, appearing within their line of sight.

And when they saw this Celestial Dragon head, Li Luo's startled voice rang out as well.

"Guiyi Hui, so it really is you scheming behind the scenes."
