Chapter 2554

Su Xiao broke free from the spatial penetration state, and Baha also came out of the different dimension. As for Amu, the "Minotaur" never dodged enemy attacks. Although that was said, Amu was very aware in its heart that it simply couldn't dodge.

"Boss, should we summon the Butcher? I feel like the First King is twice as strong as before."

"The Butcher doesn't distinguish between friend and foe."

"F*ck... forgot about that."

Baha spread its wings. At this point, they could only fight head-on.

Su Xiao lowered his body slightly, took a slow breath, and suddenly charged out.

Zing, zing, zing.

While charging, three slash beams crossed and slashed toward the First King. After charging a few steps, Su Xiao performed a thrusting leap.

With a whoosh, a huge chain of fire slashed from the front. Su Xiao charged directly through the fire chain, ignoring the stinging pain all over his body, and stabbed his blade toward the First King's head.

Clang!

The long blade was blocked by the palm-wide greatsword. The First King stomped on the ground, and a ring of fire expanded.

The fire ring swept over Su Xiao. The next instant, the crystal layer with high temperature all over his body fell off.

Clang, clang!

After two exchanges, Su Xiao's heart, which had been hanging high, settled. The First King's Strength was still higher than his, but after the reduction from the previous perfect parry, it was only a few points higher and couldn't reach complete Strength suppression.

The Beast-Berserk Potion's effect had disappeared, and no discomfort appeared. One could only say that products from the Honor Store are top-tier.

The First King's attack method had changed. Every time he slashed, he brought out a chain of fire slashes that affected a range of over ten meters, looking exceptionally dominating. Combined with his fully straightened body, his aura was completely different.

The First King's change seemed to represent his life. When they first fought, he was hunched, his sword technique was insane, and he seemed like a beast without purpose. But after the Source Power within him fully awakened, he straightened his body, and his weapon was blessed by "Source Fire," representing that he had responsibility and conviction.

If the Tianba were experts at developing Source Power, then First King Edri Dewen was the only person in this world who could control and possess Source Power. He guarded the Source Power, and the Source Power recognized him.

All Source Power with fire characteristics only recognized Edri Dewen. If the Talin royal family wanted to borrow this power, they could only use Edri Dewen's blood as a medium. There was no other way; otherwise, they would end up like Qifu, eroded to death by the fire-characteristic Source Power.

Even using Edri Dewen's blood as a medium, the Talin royal family needed to make huge sacrifices, such as nourishing the Source Power with their own vitality. Even so, if they didn't use it well, they would die on the spot.

Why the Tianba recognized Edri Dewen so much was precisely because of this. The Source-ization they racked their brains to solve didn't exist at all for Edri Dewen. He could even perform Source Awakening, activating Source Power under overload. The Source Power always ensured that Edri Dewen would not die from the passage of time.

"Edri Dewen."

The First King spoke in a muffled voice. He held the greatsword vertically in front of him, dark red flames burning on it. His other hand was behind his back, and the armor all over his body was slowly surging.

"Law-Extinguisher, Bai Ye."

Su Xiao pointed his long blade obliquely at the ground, exercising his somewhat sore left arm.

The First King and Su Xiao charged at each other. Long blade and greatsword clashed, flames and pale blue electric arcs surging everywhere.

At this moment, at the foot of Molten Mountain, Liu was looking up at the summit. Although she couldn't see exactly what was happening there, chains of fire and blade beams continued incessantly.

The Titan King sat behind Liu, wanting to stand up many times, but sat back down again.

Molten Mountain summit.

With a clang, Su Xiao was slashed back by the First King. His breathing had already become chaotic, and the blood all over his body felt like it was about to burn. His health was down to only 27%. This was from the true fire damage; the First King's flames were not just scorching but also corrosive.

Amu, swinging the Dragon Heart Axe, was being hammered. Taking this opportunity, Su Xiao took a bottle of 【Honor Recovery Potion】 from his storage space, pressed his thumb against the bottle mouth, and the micro-injection needle pierced his thumb tip. Within a very short time, the potion took effect.

Su Xiao stepped forward a few steps, rushed behind Amu, grabbed Amu's arm with one hand, spun his body, and threw Amu out.

Clang!

The blade in Su Xiao's hand blocked the First King's greatsword. Flames surged over, and he couldn't dodge at all.

A huge force came from Su Xiao's arm. The perfect parry's Strength reduction effect was about to disappear. If he couldn't defeat the First King before then, he would die here today.

Su Xiao now had a chance, but the First King's defense was perversely strong. Among all the strong enemies to date, the First King's defense and survival ability were the strongest, especially after the opponent's Source Awakening, when his defense climbed exponentially.

It must be said that it was fortunate that Qinggang Ying's true damage was high enough; otherwise, the battle wouldn't have lasted until now.

Long blade and greatsword were pressed together. The huge force coming toward him forced Su Xiao to take a step back. His left foot had just stepped back, and somewhat "unluckily," he stepped on a pebble.

Crack~

The pebble was crushed into powder by Su Xiao. Almost at the same time, the First King's large foot kicked over.

Bang!

It seemed like retribution for kicking too many people had come. The First King kicked Su Xiao in the chest. As he retreated two steps, he knelt on one knee, blocking with his left arm, blood dripping from the corner of his mouth.

"Hey!"

Baha suddenly appeared on the right side of the First King's head. It was holding a bomb shaped like an eight-clawed animal trap in its claws and clamped it directly onto the First King's head.

With a click, the Magnetic Hunter clamped shut, wrapping around half of the First King's head. Xiang Bubu Wang, who was lying in ambush in the distance, activated the Magnetic Hunter. This bomb had high Charisma and would attach magnetic true damage.

With a boom, the Magnetic Hunter exploded. Baha felt great, but it had only felt great for 0.5 seconds when a sharp pain came from its chest.

Pfft.

The First King pierced Baha's body with one sword strike, and the greatsword stabbed toward the ground.

Thud!

The fire ring expanded. Baha flew out from within the flames. If it hadn't shuttled through space at the critical moment, it would have been half-dead.

Baha landed, its whole body exhausted, its health sliding down like flowing water: 12%, 8%, 3%.

A cold light flew over and stabbed into the wound on Baha's chest. This was a slender crystal thorn. The tip was hollow, and the tail was wrapped in a cylindrical potion. The potion flowed into Baha's body along the crystal thorn, and its health recovered rapidly: 30%, 70%, 100%. Such a powerful potion was, of course, the 【Honor Recovery Potion (Tier 6)】.

Baha had indeed almost died, but it had created an opportunity. For Su Xiao, this opportunity was enough.

Dragon Shadow Flash ability activated. Su Xiao appeared in front of the First King. If one observed carefully, the blade in his hand was a bit wider, as if something was clinging to it.

An upward slash directly cut through the First King's chest. The wound was so deep that one could clearly see the bowl-sized heart within the First King. Inside this heart was the fire-characteristic Source crystal.

Having his chest broken by a single slash, the First King stood stunned on the spot, his full-body armor surging. It wasn't that he didn't want to move, but he simply couldn't.

Why was Su Xiao's blade so strong? This was actually the Blue Shadow King. Su Xiao never used his own abilities rigidly.

After activating the Qinggang Ying ability, every time he successfully burned energy within the enemy's body, it would awaken a Law-Extinguisher Blade invisible to the enemy, up to five at most.

The Law-Extinguisher Blade had the texture of a crystal blade. Su Xiao had had an idea a long time ago: could he fuse five Law-Extinguisher Blades together and then let the fused blade cling to Checking Zhan Long Shan?

The result was that Su Xiao succeeded. Each Law-Extinguisher Blade could cause 1950 points of true damage. With five fused together and clinging to Checking Zhan Long Shan, this strike dealt 9750 points of true damage, and there was a very high probability of directly triggering Qinggang Ying's paralysis effect.

The First King was slashed by Su Xiao until he lost his ability to act. Su Xiao's attacks didn't stop for a moment.

Blood energy erupted with Su Xiao as the center. He raised his left arm, and a crystal layer clung to his left hand. All the blood energy gathered toward his left hand, eventually forming a spear that was nearly solid.

"Blood Beast: Hunting Spear."

Pfft!

The blood-colored spear stabbed in from the First King's slashed-open chest, pierced his heart, and then exploded.

With a thud, the blood energy exploded, and Su Xiao was pushed back.

In the exploding blood energy, a pair of dark red eyes looked at Su Xiao. Having suffered such heavy damage, the First King still hadn't fallen, and his combat power hadn't even dropped much.

A residual light slashed past, and blood splashed from the left side of Su Xiao's body. Even though he tried his best to tilt his body, his entire left arm and left lower leg were still slashed off by the First King's greatsword.

Su Xiao fell to the ground, his entire left arm and half his lower leg landing near him. Source Power spread, and an indescribable sharp pain appeared, but he endured it with willpower.

The First King stepped forward, the greatsword in his right hand raised high. Without any hesitation, he slashed at Su Xiao's throat. Su Xiao forcibly activated Dragon Shadow Flash, but the movement from forcibly activating it was much slower than normal.

"Moo!!"

A roar came from behind the First King, and cold air surged. Amu had already leaped high, gripping the Dragon Heart Axe tightly with both hands. The Dragon Heart Axe was raised high above its head, and ice crystals even appeared on the heart at the center of the axe head.

With a swoosh, everything around seemed to freeze. The Dragon Heart Axe brought a streak of blood and slashed into the ground. A shockwave expanded, and the ground cracked inch by inch.

An arm holding the greatsword flew up. To resist the Blue Shadow King and Blood Beast, the First King had gathered all his "fluid armor" in front of his chest. Amu, jumping and slashing with the battle-axe named Dragon Heart, had severed the First King's right arm that held the sword.

With this axe strike, the depression Amu had accumulated in its heart vanished like smoke. Whether it was drifting in the sea in the previous world or being educated by the Tianba earlier, all the depression was completely vented after this axe strike.

"Blade Dao: Magic Blade Sickle."

Don't know when, Su Xiao was already half-squatting on the First King's back shoulder. Checking Zhan Long Shan in his hand was rising with black-blue smoke, pressed against the First King's neck.

The long blade pulled. Su Xiao, holding Checking Zhan Long Shan, seemed to transform into a reaper's sickle. Everything around was like an ink painting. The reaper's sickle hooked the First King's neck, and with one pull, the First King's head was sliced off. The reaper holding the magic sickle... was grinning.

Su Xiao landed, his left lower leg made of crystals and Exile stepping on the ground. He flicked Checking Zhan Long Shan, which was clinging to black-blue smoke, and a semi-circular splash of blood landed on the ground.

First King, executed!
