Extreme Heart Sword Style!
The sword radiance pierced through the void. It was a true piercing, not a superficial one.
Wherever the golden-red sword radiance passed, there would be a smear of blackness. The edges of the sword radiance were filled with countless fine marks.
It was an extreme sword radiance, an extremely powerful sword radiance. Chen Zong had used up all of his strength in this sword radiance. With the enhancement of the Nirvana Evil Sword, its power was even more terrifying and tyrannical.
Furthermore, the Nirvana Evil Sword was even more damaging to the Void Demon.
The sword radiance dissipated after a slight pause when it collided with the huge Void Demon's claws. However, the Nirvana Evil Sword continued to pierce through the Void Demon's claws, piercing through its body like a hot knife through butter.
Under normal circumstances, this kind of injury was nothing to the Void Demons. It was not enough to affect their strength and boundless vitality.
The Elite Level Void Demon revealed a smile filled with evil killing intent. It ignored the sword that had pierced through its body and clawed out with its claws once again. At such a close distance, it could completely tear the opponent's body apart.
It was a wonderful feeling.
However, the moment the Elite Level Void Devil's sharp claws reached out, its scarlet eyes suddenly changed. One could see the extreme shock in its eyes. Its claws seemed to be blocked by an invisible force and stopped in mid-air. It was only a few inches away from Chen Zong's body, trembling violently, but it couldn't descend no matter what.
Gradually, the claws became powerless. They seemed to be shrinking and shriveling like tree bark that had lost its moisture.
Vitality!
The Nirvana Evil Sword was absorbing the boundless life force of the Elite Rank Void Devil.
The Void Demon's strength was not only ten times stronger than the Void Demon's, its vitality was also many times stronger. It was the best tonic for the Nirvana Evil Sword at this moment.
In the blink of an eye, the powerful Void Demon's vitality was sucked dry. It shriveled up and turned into dust.
Chen Zong also obtained the core left behind by the Void Demon. That was equivalent to ten thousand Xuanyuan merit points.
Including the twenty over Void Demons from before, Chen Zong had accumulated more than thirty thousand Xuanyuan merit points. In such a short period of time, he had already obtained more than thirty thousand Xuanyuan merit points. Previously, he had worked hard for half a year and only obtained slightly more than ten thousand Xuanyuan merit points. The difference was too great.
Of course, Chen Zong knew that this opportunity was hard to come by. If he had not encountered a group of Void Demons that had snuck into the Lesser Void Realm, he would not be able to obtain so many Xuanyuan merit points in such a short period of time.
However, when he thought about the cultivation time in the Xuanyuan Sacred Tower, which cost 10,000 merit points per two hours, Chen Zong felt a little discouraged.
Thirty thousand Xuanyuan merit points was only for cultivation for six hours.
Six hours wouldn't be of much help to him right now.
More!
He needed more Xuanyuan merit points. Moreover, he still had a bet with Li Fangming.
If he did not win, not only would he have to transfer all his Xuanyuan merit points to Li Fangming, he would also have to avoid Li Fangming in the future. This would undoubtedly leave a shadow in his heart. It might even turn into an inner demon. In the worst case scenario, it would affect his cultivation and progress.
Therefore, he could only win this time.
Strength!
Opportunity!
He did not lack any. What he relied on was hard work.
With the Nirvana Evil Sword in hand, he could better find the traces of the Void Demons and kill them.
In another part of the Lesser Void Realm, Li Fangming was also acting alone. He was searching for Void Demons to kill.
As a veteran Earth Grade disciple of the Xuanyuan Palace, Li Fangming was very strong. He was at least comparable to the top ten peerless sky-prides in the Xuanyuan Sacred Battle. It was only because of his age that he could not participate in the Xuanyuan Sacred Battle. Otherwise, he would be a strong opponent.
"I must win this bet." Li Fangming's eyes flashed with coldness and determination.
This time, he only allowed himself to win and not lose because he could not afford to lose.
If he lost, he would lose all his Xuanyuan merit points. His efforts would be in vain. In the future, he would have to avoid Li Fangming whenever he saw him. It would invisibly plant an inner demon in his heart.
If he won, he would have more Xuanyuan merit points. At that time, he would be able to exchange them for treasures that would allow him to break through to the Saint Rudiment Stage. Moreover, he would be able to advance by leaps and bounds in the Saint Rudiment Stage. His strength would skyrocket from then on.
…
With a twist of his wrist, the Nirvana Evil Sword pierced through the air with a flash of lightning.
Chen Zong usually didn't utilize Half-step Sword Intent or Half-step Fire Intent when facing miscellaneous Void Devils because these two Half-step Dao Insights had already attained the Perfection Realm, and unless they fused together, they were unable to be improved upon.
However, even though the strength of the Demonic Void Devils was not weak, they were unable to help him in his fusion. Thus, by using the Half-Step Thunder Will against the enemy, he could use it to temper his Half-Step Thunder Will and make a breakthrough.
Currently, his half-step Thunder Intent was at 90% Perfection. After breaking through, it would be 100% Perfection. After that, he would have to continuously dig out his potential until it reached 100% Perfection.
Every time he slashed out, there would be a flash of lightning.
Gradually, Chen Zong also created his own sword technique. This sword technique was created to complement the half-step Thunder Intent. Its power was not weak, but it was not as strong as the Ultimate Heart Sword Style. Chen Zong did not bother to name it because he wanted to better comprehend the half-step Thunder Intent.
There were many types of Void Demons. Chen Zong had killed dozens of Void Demons so far. There were at least a dozen different types of Void Demons, and different types of Void Demons had different characteristics.
Some Void Demons were extremely powerful, as if they could lift mountains.
Some Void Demons were extremely fast, as fast as lightning.
Some Void Demons had strong bodies, as immovable as mountains, and were difficult to break through.
Some Void Demons were like ghosts, drifting and unpredictable, making it difficult to catch them.
However, no matter what kind of Void Demons they were, they all had one thing in common, and that was that they possessed extremely terrifying power. Their destructive and corrosive properties were shocking, and their attacks were ruthless and decisive. Every attack was meant to kill the opponent. It was a killing technique that had been tempered thousands of times.
When fighting with Void Demons, even if one was slightly stronger than them, one might not necessarily be able to kill them. One might even be killed by them.
But at the same time, fighting with Void Demons could better temper one's fighting ability, and use one's power more thoroughly.
Through the constant battles of life and death, Chen Zong also felt that his sword technique had improved further, and he had reached a higher level of enlightenment.
When the sword struck out, the lightning was blazing, and in an instant, it was as if a bolt of lightning had turned into a thunderbolt, and its power increased greatly.
Under the sword, the Void Demon's body was immediately pierced through. Then, accompanied by a shrill scream, the Void Demon quickly weakened and died.
Void Demons had strong bodies and tenacious vitality. If they were only injured, it would not affect them much. However, the Nirvana Evil Sword could absorb vitality, so as long as they were injured, their vitality would be quickly absorbed by the Nirvana Evil Sword.
And Chen Zong also noticed that as the Nirvana Evil Sword continued to absorb vitality, its speed seemed to have increased.
It could be said that the Nirvana Evil Sword had the ability to restrain Void Demons, and it imperceptibly allowed Chen Zong to kill Void Demons more efficiently.
After the Void Demon died, it turned into ashes and dissipated, and the Half-step Thunder Intent welcomed a breakthrough.
One hundred percent!
The Half-step Thunder Intent had reached one hundred percent, and its power was much stronger.
Chen Zong could not help but reveal a smile.
One hundred percent Half-step Thunder Intent, its power was naturally stronger.
"If I can merge the Half-step Thunder Intent with the other two Half-step Dao Intents and become one …" Chen Zong suddenly had an idea, and a bright light shot out from the bottom of his eyes, like the incessant rotation of the sun and moon.
The power of merging two Half-step Dao Intents was already so strong, and if three were merged, it was unimaginable how strong it would be.
Of course, Chen Zong was only thinking about it for now. After all, he knew clearly how difficult it was to merge two Half-step Dao Intents. Presently, Half-step Sword Intent and Half-step Fire Intent had only merged to 40%, and it was still very far from 100%. He did not know how much time it would take, not to mention merging the third Half-step Thunder Intent. Perhaps the difficulty would increase by more than 10 times.
"The Extremity Sword Style was created based on Half-step Sword Intent. One hundred percent perfection Half-step Sword Intent is able to bring forth the might of the Extremity Sword Style to the limit. But if it's executed by merging Half-step Sword Intent and Half-step Fire Intent, even though its might would be even stronger, it would be unable to merge perfectly." Chen Zong stood on the spot and pondered.
Inspiration usually flashed by, and if one didn't grasp it in time, it would vanish.
Now that Chen Zong had grasped that inspiration, he naturally couldn't miss it.
When he created the Extremity Sword Style at that time, he'd put in all his effort and put all his mind into it, and he'd only succeeded after seizing the opportunity. He'd used the Half-step Heart Sword Intent as the foundation, and it was completely unrelated to other Half-step Dao Intents.
Yet now, when he executed it by fusing Half-step Dao Intents, even though its might was even stronger, it had a jerky feeling.
Jerky meant that it wasn't perfect, and it meant that there would be even more flaws, and it would be even easier to dodge or break through. So no matter how strong its might was, it would be useless.
Earlier, when he'd killed the Elite Rank Spatial Devil, he'd executed the Extremity Sword Style, but it was also because of the Nirvana Evil Sword. If he'd utilized the Gilded Heavy Mountain Sword, it would probably have been difficult to accomplish.
Chen Zong quickly found his own shortcomings.
When cultivating, one wasn't afraid of having flaws, but one was afraid of not being aware of them and being unable to eliminate them and perfect them.
The path of cultivation was originally a path to pursue the perfection of life, and all methods of killing were only for the sake of better protecting oneself and overcoming all obstacles on the path to perfection.
"If it's like this, then I can use the Extremity Sword Style as the foundation and improve it," Chen Zong thought to himself.
But improving an ultimate move that was based on fusing Half-step Dao Intents wasn't such an easy thing. Now, it could only be said that he had this initial idea, and he still needed to think and experiment more before he obtained a suitable opportunity.
If he could successfully improve it, then the might of the new ultimate move would surely be even more formidable and shocking.
Chen Zong couldn't help but recall Chu Zhong Yang's finger during the Battle of Xuanyuan Saint.
It was a finger that was fused with Half-step Wind Intent and Half-step Fire Intent, and its might was terrifying to the extreme. It instantly destroyed his full force attack like a hot knife through butter, and he was utterly unable to resist it in the slightest before he was killed.
Even if he recalled it now, even if his strength had increased greatly, Chen Zong still didn't have much confidence in facing that finger. It was even to the extent that when he carefully recalled it, he felt that finger was even more terrifying and not simple.
