Chapter 3126: 3126 3126: In the End, It Comes Down to Strength Lin Moyu didn’t take action immediately. He could see that the Black Blood Sword Saint wasn’t easy to deal with. Even besieged by 100,000 Divine Rune Army soldiers, he showed no signs of defeat. The Black Blood Sword Saint’s defense was extremely powerful, which completely matched Lin Moyu’s understanding. If the fight continued, the Divine Rune Army would be worn down. Moreover, the Black Blood Sword Saint’s lower body was still evolving, his power constantly increasing. Once his lower body finished evolving, he would become a true Black Blood Sword Saint, much stronger than now. At that time, he might truly be seventh-level Dao Venerable. These 100,000 Divine Rune Army soldiers would be defeated by him alone, with probably very few able to escape. According to Lin Moyu’s judgment, if the Divine Rune Army had no countermeasures, they would lose this great battle. Suddenly, the strongest seventh-grade general in the Divine Rune Army raised his battle blade. The blade shone with brilliant golden light, and many divine runes lit up. In an instant, the power of the entire Divine Rune Army was gathered by him. He gathered the Divine Rune Army’s power and swung out a blade. Terrifying power engulfed the Black Blood Sword Saint. This blade strike surpassed the boundary between sixth and seventh-level Dao Venerable in combat power. Within the blade light, the Black Blood Sword Saint seemed to be in great pain, part of his black blood shattered. The Black Blood Sword Saint was injured, his evolution speed slowing considerably. Lin Moyu suddenly understood that the final result of this great battle would still be the Divine Rune Army’s victory. But for this victory, the Divine Rune Army also paid a huge price. That blade strike just now gathered the power of nearly 100,000 Divine Rune Army soldiers. Although powerful, it also put extreme pressure on this seventh-grade general. After this blade strike, the seventh-grade general also suffered backlash, his armor cracking. The Divine Rune Army suffered even more, with hundreds of Divine Rune Army soldiers instantly vaporized. This blade strike was swung at the cost of Divine Rune Army soldiers’ lives. Lin Moyu understood the true content of the task. He needed to take action, not to help the Divine Rune Army kill the Black Blood Sword Saint. But to kill the Black Blood Sword Saint for the Divine Rune Army, minimizing the Divine Rune Army’s losses as much as possible. Only in this way could he obtain extra rewards. Otherwise, once the Black Blood Sword Saint finished evolving, the Divine Rune Army would indeed win this great battle, but it would certainly be a pyrrhic victory. "Since that’s the case, let’s take action!" His mind moved, and Flame North appeared beside him. Flame North evolved his dao true body, transforming into a Flame Divine Eagle. The Fire Dao emerged, and fiery meteors smashed towards the Black Blood Sword Saint. The Black Blood Sword Saint seemed to sense danger, raising his sword to slash at the fiery meteors. The black energy was shattered by the fiery meteors. He could slash out seventh-level Dao Venerable sword aura, but couldn’t block eighth-level Dao Venerable Flame North. The fiery meteors smashed into the Black Blood Sword Saint. He couldn’t move, unable to dodge. Fire light soared to the sky, sweeping across thousands of meters. Several generals simultaneously gave orders, and the Divine Rune Army quickly retreated, clearing the battlefield. At this time, Lin Moyu’s aura surged. He used an Origin-level technique, gathering the undead army’s power to break through to seventh-level Dao Venerable in one go. A long spear evolved from the seal. Lin Moyu raised the spear and charged at the Black Blood Sword Saint. 𝙛𝒓𝒆𝙚𝒘𝒆𝓫𝙣𝓸𝙫𝓮𝒍.𝒄𝒐𝓶 Apart from smashing down fiery meteors, Flame North didn’t take further action. The Black Blood Sword Saint wasn’t actually injured by the fiery meteors. Flame North’s real purpose was to mark out an area, leaving the battlefield to Lin Moyu. Lin Moyu did this to personally engage the Black Blood Sword Saint. Since the Great World, Lin Moyu had formed karmic ties with the Black Blood Great Realm. He had a premonition that this karma hadn’t ended. In the future, he would still clash with people from the Black Blood Great Realm. Before that, having a chance to learn more about them was naturally a good thing. Lin Moyu charged into the battlefield surrounded by flames, his long spear pointing directly at the Black Blood Sword Saint. The Black Blood Sword Saint raised his sword, instantly slashing out countless sword auras. Lin Moyu blocked the sword auras with his spear, instantly reaching the Black Blood Sword Saint’s front. "Heaven-Splitting Slash!" He smashed out with the spear. Killing intent surged, terrifying killing intent sweeping out like a tsunami, enveloping the Black Blood Sword Saint. The Black Blood Sword Saint silently screamed in agony, the black blood on his body swept away by the killing intent, ground to powder. Amidst the killing intent storm, Lin Moyu charged out. His wings of time vibrated violently at this moment. The long spear turned into a rainbow, carrying Lin Moyu to pierce through the Black Blood Sword Saint’s body. The Black Blood Sword Saint’s lower body was still evolving, unable to move. He could only fully bear this spear strike. His body exploded, countless black blood blasted out. But he didn’t die. His body quickly recovered. Apart from his aura weakening slightly, he wasn’t much injured at all. He stared fixedly at Lin Moyu, opening his mouth in a silent roar. The sword in his hand swung even more fiercely, but he could do nothing against Lin Moyu. All attacks were blocked by the long spear. After two probing attacks, Lin Moyu didn’t continue attacking, but kept blocking the sword auras. He wanted to see if the Black Blood Sword Saint had any other techniques. From what was known so far, the Black Blood Sword Saint had amazing recovery ability, very difficult to injure, and very difficult to kill. To kill him, one would have to erase all the blood in his body. He seemed to have no black blood physical body, entirely composed of black blood. This was different from those in the Great World. While blocking, Lin Moyu attacked the Black Blood Sword Saint with occasional spear strikes, gradually causing damage, eroding his black blood. Finally, the Black Blood Sword Saint made a move. He raised his sword high with both hands. The sky suddenly darkened. A huge black sword appeared in heaven and earth. This sword was tens of thousands of meters long, with blood grooves on the blade. Black blood surged like rivers in the grooves. The huge black sword slashed down at Lin Moyu. Lin Moyu also thrust out his spear, the tip meeting the edge. Terrifying power erupted. Lin Moyu was instantly blasted away. In terms of power, he was utterly defeated. This shocked Lin Moyu. He was now seventh-level Dao Venerable. Although not as good as a true seventh-level Dao Venerable, he indeed had seventh-level Dao Venerable power. While the Black Blood Sword Saint hadn’t fully evolved, still sixth-level Dao Venerable, just using a secret technique to launch a seventh-level Dao Venerable attack. Even if they were evenly matched it would be fine, but he was utterly defeated. It could only be said that this strike from the Black Blood Sword Saint was too fierce. As Lin Moyu was blasted away, strands of black blood threads flew over like shadows, turning into a large net enveloping Lin Moyu. Lin Moyu could have avoided it, but he didn’t. He wanted to experience the Black Blood Sword Saint’s secret technique. The black blood threads were corrosive and highly invasive. As soon as they touched the skin, they bored into the body. Lin Moyu felt the black blood threads. They were extremely tough and not easy to expel. For ordinary people, once injured, it wouldn’t take long for the black blood threads to seep into the bone marrow, and even corrode the soul. This secret technique was extremely vicious, but for Lin Moyu... "Useless!" The Power Dao operated, driving his blood energy to roar. Lin Moyu’s blood energy instinctively shook, directly shattering these black blood threads. Lin Moyu flew back, again charging at the Black Blood Sword Saint. After swinging this sword, the Black Blood Sword Saint’s power obviously weakened a lot. The evolution of his lower body also became extremely slow. Lin Moyu toyed with him a bit more, confirming he had no other moves, and then couldn’t be bothered to continue. His mind moved, and Flame North, who had been waiting for a long time, charged over. Facing eighth-level Dao Venerable Flame North, the Black Blood Sword Saint had no resistance. In no time, he was burned to ashes. Lin Moyu said softly, "In the end, it comes down to strength." "No matter where you’re from, as long as I’m strong enough, I can still beat you back." Brilliant golden light shone. The Divine Rune Army sounded the gong to withdraw troops, putting away weapons and reforming into square formations. The leading seventh-grade general slowly flew before Lin Moyu, saluting him.
