Ch. 1769 - Exploding Everything, Unstoppable

If it were a pure one-on-one fight, these people probably would not last even a few hours.

“Kill!” Xu Zimo roared.

He slashed several more times in succession, cutting straight toward the White Tiger Dao Lord.

“White Tiger, I’ll help you,” the Divine Thunder Dao Lord shouted.

Lightning wrapped around his body as a torrent of thunder merged with the White Tiger Dao Lord’s power, intertwining and surging toward Xu Zimo.

Boom.

Even with the two of them joining forces, they still could not stop Xu Zimo’s advance.

“Damn it, just how did this guy cultivate?”

“Once we capture him, we must force him to talk. He definitely has secrets.”

At this moment, the True Darkness Dao Lord and the Bright Light Dao Lord also joined the battle, helping the two resist Xu Zimo.

Xu Zimo strode through the void.

Blade after blade fell, leaving his enemies no room to breathe.

As the blades were honed through relentless combat, Xu Zimo gained a faint insight.

It felt as though he had entered a special state.

“Nine Hells Desolation, Slaying Myriad Immortals. What should this next blade be called?”

If anyone could remain calm and carefully observe Xu Zimo’s blade intent, they would notice it had changed.

It now carried a certain rhythm, slashing downward in a half-arc from above.

“Shadow, it’s up to you,” the White Tiger Dao Lord said quietly.

The Dark Shadow Dao Lord nodded.

In the next instant, his figure melted into the void. No one could clearly see him.

Within the shockwaves of explosions, even explosions cast shadows.

Wherever there was a shadow, that was his hiding place.

Holding his breath and focusing his mind, he crept closer to Xu Zimo step by step.

When he drew near, he saw that Xu Zimo’s eyes were actually closed.

“This man is truly bold. He’s comprehending the Dao at a time like this.”

The Dark Shadow Dao Lord took a deep breath. On the Shadow Blade in his hand, sharp intent steadily gathered.

“Closer. Just a bit closer. Almost there.”

Finally, when he was less than ten meters from Xu Zimo, the Dark Shadow Dao Lord roared.

“Now! Shadow Slash!”

Darkness swallowed everything, forming a black crescent like a half-moon, surging toward Xu Zimo.

Just as the crescent was about to devour him, Xu Zimo’s tightly shut eyes snapped open.

“It’s complete. This third blade shall be called Grand Sun Extinction.”

Nine Hells Desolation.

Slay Myriad Immortals.

Grand Sun Extinction.

Boom.

In the next instant, Shadow Tyrant slashed down.

At the blade’s edge, it was as though a blazing sun had condensed there, scorching beyond measure, boiling seas and burning the heavens.

Light shone across eternity, never fading.

With a single strike of Grand Sun Extinction, the Shadow Blade melted away, and the void itself was burned to ash.

The Dark Shadow Dao Lord did not even have time to dodge before he was instantly vaporized by the searing heat.

Body and soul were utterly erased.

“Shadow!” the White Tiger Dao Lord shouted.

In the next moment, Xu Zimo’s blade light descended once more.

A terrifying explosion erupted, blasting the remaining Infinite Dao cultivators of the Eighteen Blade Purgatory flying in all directions.

“How can this be…” The White Tiger Dao Lord looked utterly lost.

He raised his head.

Xu Zimo stood suspended in the void. Even the sun in the sky seemed to respond to Grand Sun Extinction, gathering all its radiance onto him.

At this moment, his presence inspired an instinctive urge to kneel and worship.

The sunlight was so dazzling that no one could open their eyes.

Xu Zimo slowly lifted his head, looked at the sun, and smiled.

“So even you acknowledge this blade?”

His smile was brilliant.

That moment of enlightenment was not only a breakthrough in blade techniques, but a deepening of his own Dao.

Previously, among the Three Blossoms, his Worldly Blossom had only formed a seed.

Now it had sprouted and taken root, the first flower nearing full maturity.

“The feeling of Dao comprehension is truly wonderful,” Xu Zimo murmured.

“It won’t be long before I comprehend the second flower.”

…

Xu Zimo lowered his head and looked at the remaining six Infinite Dao cultivators.

Earlier, he had killed the Sky Ant Dao Lord, and now the Dark Shadow Dao Lord as well.

Only the White Tiger Dao Lord, Divine Thunder Dao Lord, Azure Crane Dao Lord, True Darkness Dao Lord, Bright Light Dao Lord, and Scorpion Demon Dao Lord remained.

Although it was six against one, their initial confidence was completely gone.

“This guy is a monster,” the White Tiger Dao Lord muttered.

“I have a feeling we’re going to fall here today.”

“Shut up. The Eighteen Blade Purgatory has ruled this place for so many years. How could we be destroyed so easily?” the True Darkness Dao Lord snorted.

Xu Zimo looked down at the six and laughed loudly.

“You helped me comprehend my third blade. As payment, I’ll send you to hell.”

Laughing, he charged toward them.

The first blade fell directly on the White Tiger Dao Lord.

Its agonized roar echoed across Divine Mountain, but it was useless.

One slash split it in two, and Xu Zimo stomped its head to pieces.

The White Tiger Dao Lord died.

Next, Xu Zimo unleashed several more slashes.

The Azure Crane Dao Lord managed to dodge, but Xu Zimo was already upon it.

He grabbed both wings and tore it apart with his bare hands.

The azure crane was ripped cleanly in two, then finished with another slash.

“Playing with lightning against me? You’re nothing but a shackled child.”

This strike unleashed both the Lightning Edict and the Primordial Edict of Absolute Annihilation together.

The sea of thunder was split apart, and the Divine Thunder Dao Lord was annihilated within it.

“I won’t fight anymore. I won’t fight!” The Scorpion Demon Dao Lord was terrified out of his wits.

“This is unwinnable. I don’t want to die.”

Seeing this, the True Darkness Dao Lord roared in fury.

“Scorpion Demon, are you betraying the Eighteen Blade Purgatory? Do you know the consequences?”

“I’m about to lose my life. Who gives a damn about betrayal anymore?!” the Scorpion Demon Dao Lord shouted back.

He looked at Xu Zimo.

“I won’t fight you. I’m leaving now. I hope you won’t make things difficult for me.”

“If you had left when I first attacked Divine Mountain, I could have let it go,” Xu Zimo said coldly.

“But now that the blade has been drawn, how can I let you leave?”

The next moment, terrifying blade light slashed toward the Scorpion Demon Dao Lord.

“Damn you, you’re too tyrannical!”

The Scorpion Demon Dao Lord roared.

He revealed his true form, transforming into an ancient demon scorpion of massive size.

Its huge pincers could crush anything.

“You forced me to this. You forced me!” he roared.

But in the next instant, as Shadow Tyrant slashed down, the scorpion’s armored back shattered.

Another slash followed, and the Scorpion Demon Dao Lord was gravely wounded.

“Pretty tough, aren’t you?” Xu Zimo sneered.

Shadow Tyrant fell once more.

This time, the Scorpion Demon Dao Lord was completely blown apart, his internal organs bursting out.

Blood and flesh splattered everywhere, the scene nauseating and foul-smelling.

Xu Zimo raised his head.

Of the eight Infinite Dao cultivators, only the Bright Light Dao Lord and the True Darkness Dao Lord remained.

At this moment, the two of them seemed to be nurturing something.
