Clang—
The Demon Sword reacted swiftly, rotating its blade to collide directly with the Ye Fan Sword.
A deafening metallic clash erupted across the sky.
"Damn it! Damn it!"
The Demon Sword let out a series of eerie, furious howls.
Its blade trembled violently before launching another strike toward Ye Fan's sword!
"Seeking death."
Seeing the Demon Sword charge forward again, Ye Fan sneered coldly.
Phantom Dance!!!
In an instant, Ye Fan activated the skill.
The Ye Fan Sword split into countless phantom blades, darting toward the Demon Sword.
The eye on the Demon Sword spun wildly, unable to distinguish which was the real one!
At that moment, the Ye Fan Sword pierced forward!
Thousands of phantom blades stabbed at the Demon Sword.
The Demon Sword charged forward in a frenzy, but none of its attacks could reach the Ye Fan Sword.
In the next moment, the real Ye Fan Sword struck the eye of the Demon Sword!
Boom—
A muffled explosion echoed as the eye on the Demon Sword shattered!
Blue blood splattered everywhere.
"Ahhhh!!!"
A painful wail emanated from the sword.
Underworld Flame Soul Slash!!!
Suddenly, flames erupted from the Ye Fan Sword, engulfing the entire blade in white fire.
The sword continued its relentless assault on the Demon Sword.
Clang, clang, clang—
With each clash, the scorching white flames began to melt parts of the Demon Sword, warping its blade.
Without its eye, the Demon Sword flailed blindly like a headless fly, unable to defend itself against the Ye Fan Sword's onslaught.
Cracks began to appear all over the Demon Sword.
"Antaike!"
Meanwhile, in the sky, Zhang Leitian roared furiously at Antaike in front of him.
With a swift motion, Zhang Leitian summoned a massive amount of energy into his palms.
He launched the energy at Antaike with a violent blast.
"Pathetic trick!"
Antaike snorted coldly.
A burst of source energy erupted from his body, forming an energy shield around him in an instant.
Boom—
Zhang Leitian's attack slammed into the energy shield but was entirely blocked.
Zhang Leitian's eyes widened in shock.
His face darkened as he realized the situation.
Over the past period, he had relied heavily on the Ye Fan Sword. Its immense power meant he rarely practiced his own martial techniques.
But now, without the Ye Fan Sword, his weaknesses were laid bare.
"Heh, so without that sword, your strength is just average."
Antaike sneered, sensing the opportunity.
With a wave of his hands, powerful golden flames surged from his palms.
The flames coalesced into the shape of a massive golden dragon, which charged at Zhang Leitian.
The temperature in the sky soared drastically.
Zhang Leitian's eyes widened in alarm.
He quickly channeled his source energy to form a protective shield.
But his energy wasn't nearly as dense as Antaike's.
His shield was thin and fragile.
In the next moment, the golden dragon of flames collided with Zhang Leitian's shield.
The shield melted under the intense heat.
"Ahhh!!!"
The searing heat made Zhang Leitian cry out in pain.
"Heh heh, you can burn to death now!"
Antaike laughed maliciously.
Boom—
At the same time, a massive explosion rang out from below, accompanied by a blinding blue light.
The Demon Sword shattered into countless pieces!
"Ahhh!!!"
A loud, agonized wail echoed from the remnants of the Demon Sword.
A surge of energy flowed into the Ye Fan Sword.
[Absorbed special energy, gained 911,545,746 evolution points]!
"So many evolution points!?"
Ye Fan was astonished at the system's notification.
This many evolution points were exhilarating!
"The divine sword!"
Up in the sky, Zhang Leitian saw what had happened below and immediately rushed down.
He no longer cared about the golden flames still burning on his body.
He sped toward the Ye Fan Sword at full speed!
Not good!
Antaike's expression changed drastically as he watched Zhang Leitian fly downward.
The Ye Fan Sword had destroyed the Demon Sword, a weapon even Antaike's father hadn't been able to destroy!
Now…
I can't let Zhang Leitian get the sword back!
Antaike quickly channeled more energy, launching a series of golden flame dragons from his palms toward Zhang Leitian.
Zhang Leitian saw the flame dragons approaching from his right, their jaws wide open, ready to tear into him.
His expression turned grim, but in that moment, he couldn't care about anything else.
He had to get his sword!
Without the Ye Fan Sword, he would surely die!
With a furious roar, Zhang Leitian summoned a burst of speed, hurtling toward the sword even as the flames closed in.
Just as the golden dragons reached him, Zhang Leitian's hand finally grasped the hilt of the Ye Fan Sword!
His eyes widened in triumph.
Immediately, he felt a surge of immense power coursing through his entire body!
The sensation of wielding immense strength returned to him!
"Die!!!"
Behind him, Antaike's face twisted in rage.
As his flaming dragons descended upon Zhang Leitian, he suddenly noticed something and his expression darkened.
The flame dragons had been split in two!
Their intense fiery energy dissipated instantly!
"Hahahaha!"
"Antaike, did you really think that your flames could defeat me?"
"It's useless!!!"
Zhang Leitian laughed maniacally.
Now that the Ye Fan Sword was back in his hand, he felt as though everything had once again fallen under his control!
