Zhou Wen stood up and stared at Old Master Xia. He silently switched his Essence Energy Art back to the most primitive Slaughterer and used the power of the Sigh of the King.
Suddenly, an explosive power filled his body, almost causing his body to explode. Furthermore, that power was still rapidly growing stronger.
Zhou Wen hadn't used the power of the Sigh of the King in a long time because it was just too powerful. Even with his present physique, he couldn't last long. If this continued, he would explode from his own strength without the enemy needing to do anything.
However, at this point, he had to use it no matter what.
Old Master Xia's figure flashed as he appeared in front of Zhou Wen as though he had teleported. The Orchid Blade in his hand stabbed at Zhou Wen's eyes. Even at the Mythical stage, his speed was extremely terrifying. It was almost impossible to react.
Clang!
However, Zhou Wen reacted. The Bamboo Blade struck the Orchid Blade, forcing Old Master Xia to take half a step back. It filled Old Master Xia's eyes with surprise.
With the augmentation of the Guardian, his current Speed and Strength were at the Mythical stage. Furthermore, he was a top-notch existence among Mythical creatures.
The fact that Zhou Wen could block his blade and force him back was enough to shock him.
After all, Zhou Wen didn't have a Guardian. Even if he had a Mythical Companion Beast, he couldn't be considered a true Mythical.
However, Zhou Wen didn't have the time to think so much. His entire body was swollen to the point of discomfort. It probably wouldn't take long for his body to explode and die. He had to do something before his body couldn't withstand the power of the Sigh of the King.
The Bamboo Blade slashed at Old Master Xia violently, one strike after another like a tsunami.
Old Master Xia raised the Orchid Blade to meet it. At the same time, he absorbed the terrifying Essence Energy contained in the Bamboo Blade.
However, he was surprised to discover that the Essence Energy in the Bamboo Blade seemed endless. No matter how much he sucked, the Essence Energy in the Bamboo Blade didn't show any signs of weakening.
Zhou Wen's consecutive strikes forced Old Master Xia to retreat repeatedly. The strength of each strike increased exponentially.
How is this possible? Old Master Xia was alarmed. He had the augmentation of a Guardian. Coupled with the power of the Connate Great Emperor Sutra, there weren't many people at the Mythical stage who could compete with him in strength.
Zhou Wen was at the Epic stage, but the power he released could suppress him. This shocked and delighted him.
The stronger Zhou Wen was, the stronger the Wheel of Destiny condensed by the Connate Great Emperor Sutra would be after he absorbed Zhou Wen and used the power of the nine Life Souls to advance to the Mythical stage.
"Display your strength to your heart's content. This is the last glorious moment of your life. Let me see exactly how strong you are." Old Master Xia's figure flashed as he dodged Zhou Wen's saber attacks. The excitement in his eyes intensified.
Zhou Wen's expression didn't change at all. He was completely focused on the battle and didn't have any other thoughts. All he did was push the violent power in his body to its limits.
The saber became faster and faster, and its power became more and more violent.
As for Zhou Wen's saber techniques, they became stronger and stronger.
Transcendent Flying Immortal was actually a movement technique, not a saber technique. Now, Zhou Wen was only using Transcendent Flying Immortal to injure Old Master Xia. His Path to Snatching Heaven wasn't inferior to Transcendent Flying Immortal.
Therefore, Zhou Wen could only seek a breakthrough. Since his movement technique was unable to threaten Old Master Xia, he could only make the saber in his hand faster and stronger.
Zhou Wen didn't have the time to use so many fancy moves. He was only pursuing greater speed.
Quick! Quick! Quick!
Zhou Wen only wanted to make himself faster. Be it his movement technique or the saber in his hand, they had infinite possibilities due to the nearly infinite power in his body.
Bam!
When Zhou Wen felt that his body was about to explode from the violent body, he finally reached a point where even Old Master Xia couldn't dodge. He slashed at Old Master Xia's chest.
However, Old Master Xia's body exploded like water. He had only slashed at an avatar. Old Master Xia's body appeared elsewhere.
"How interesting. An Epic body can actually possess such powerful strength. However, your body shouldn't be able to withstand such powerful strength, right?" Old Master Xia said as he sized up Zhou Wen with a fervent gaze.
He really wanted to know how strong he would be if his Mythical Body had such power.
Old Master Xia had carefully selected seven youths with peerless talent and plundered their talent, Life Providences, and Life Souls. Together with his own Life Providences and Life Souls, he was only short of one Life Providence and Life Soul to reach the Connate Great Emperor Sutra's extreme number of nine and change his fate to advance to the Mythical stage.
The Connate Great Emperor Sutra was created by combining the Xia family's Great Emperor Sutra and the Invincible Connate Divine Art he obtained from the Connate Divine Temple. He believed that he could definitely advance to the Mythical stage with this Essence Energy Art.
However, it was difficult to gather nine Life Providences and nine Life Souls. Typical Life Providences and Life Souls, such as the ten thousand Epic swordsmen, were actually only nutrients for the nine Life Providences and Life Souls. They wouldn't truly become his Life Providences and Life Souls.
It was very rare for an existence to become one of the nine main Life Providences and Life Souls. Up to now, Old Master Xia was still short of one.
In fact, Xia Liuchuan was the ninth person that Old Master Xia had deliberately nurtured, but for some reason, Old Master Xia ultimately didn't absorb Xia Liuchuan.
It was only with Zhou Wen's appearance that Old Master Xia planned on using Zhou Wen as his ninth Life Providence and Life Soul. At the same time, he used the Life Providences and Life Souls of more than ten thousand people as nutrients to push himself to the Mythical stage and condense the Wheel of Destiny.
However, Zhou Wen's performance alarmed Old Master Xia. Zhou Wen was much stronger than the eight he had previously absorbed. It was something he had never seen in his life.
Indeed, just as Old Master Xia had said, Zhou Wen's body couldn't withstand the power of the Sigh of the King. His flesh and blood tore apart as bloody marks appeared on his skin. His muscles were torn apart and dripping with blood. Cracks appeared on his bones. If this continued, he would probably self-destruct.
However, at that moment, Zhou Wen remained as calm as ever. He carefully sensed the power that was pushing his body towards destruction.
Zhou Wen had seen many powerful creatures — Torch Dragon, Tyrant Behemoth, Primordial Sword Immortal, Truth Listener, and the Guardians that seemed even more powerful. They were all very powerful, a power that made people look up to them.
However, no matter what kind of power it was, it seemed incomparable to the power in Zhou Wen's body. Zhou Wen could sense that this power was one level higher than any power he had seen before. It might even be on more than one level.
If God defies me, I'll slay God … If Immortals defy me, I'll slay Immortals … Not the same as God … Not the same as Immortals … I am me …
Zhou Wen recalled the unbridled and arrogant voice in his dream. It made him tremble in fear, but it also made his blood boil.
