Chapter 1360: Sever! Sever! Sever!

“It’s him!” The eight-clawed beast True God instantly recognized that the approaching figure, now transformed into a massive blurred blade shadow, was the same Law Sovereign who had previously stolen the True God’s corpse.

“Just a Law Sovereign!”

“So what if his close combat dodging skills are impressive? His foundation in Law comprehension is limited, so no matter how powerful his battle techniques are, they can’t be that strong.” The eight-clawed beast True God was extremely confident. Initially startled, once he confirmed his opponent was merely a Law Sovereign, he no longer felt any concern.

His thoughts weren’t wrong.

Foundational strength determines battle techniques!

A single Cosmic Sovereign creating a top-tier sixth-stage secret technique was already considered incredible. Before Luo Feng, no one in the entire Cosmic Ocean had ever achieved this. Even Luo Feng had only managed to create such a top-tier sixth-stage secret technique with the help of the inheritance space.

As for top-tier seventh-stage techniques? Even among the generations of the Dandong River lineage, though all were extraordinary, barely more than half succeeded.

And for top-tier eighth-stage techniques? Only two among all the Dandong River generations had ever accomplished that.

But for a True God, even an ordinary one, creating top-tier seventh or even eighth-stage secret techniques was perfectly natural. For some extremely powerful True Gods, even top-tier ninth or tenth-stage techniques were well within their capabilities. This was the gap in foundational strength—those with higher foundations naturally found it much easier to comprehend powerful techniques.

This eight-clawed beast True God, after all, was a True God, and the secret techniques he unleashed naturally couldn’t be anything less than formidable.

“He’s truly insatiable, daring to attack me. He must have his eyes on the many True God corpses I’ve collected,” the eight-clawed beast True God thought with great anticipation. “Hahaha, this little Law Sovereign must be an elite in his army, surely granted a True God battle armor. Never would I have imagined that I’d obtain my own True God battle armor from a Law Sovereign!”

Boom!

Rather than fleeing, the eight-clawed beast True God charged forward furiously.

The massive blade shadow and the enormous beast roared through the surrounding purple vines and grass, directly rushing toward each other.

“It’s that Law Sovereign.”

“He’s that super-genius.”

“That Law Sovereign dares to come back again? No matter how much of a genius he is, he’s still just a Law Sovereign.”

A small portion of the True Gods engaged in battle at the distant battlefield had already noticed the blurred blade shadow appearing at the edge of the battlefield and recognized it as the same super-genius who had previously stolen the corpses.

“Capture this genius.”

“Kill him.”

Instantly, several True Gods flew toward him.

They clearly understood that while the training of geniuses in the army was off-limits to interference from Void True Gods, True Gods themselves were fully entitled to intervene. If a genius perished, it was simply a matter of their own lack of ability!

“That group of True Gods will take 29 seconds to arrive here,” Luo Feng instantly calculated.

After all, the battlefield of True Gods was extremely vast. The eight-clawed beast True God had been wandering at the edge, while Luo Feng’s position was even more remote. Even with the incredible speed limits within the Jin World, it would indeed take 29 seconds to arrive.

“29 seconds—eliminate it!”

Luo Feng focused his gaze on the eight-clawed beast True God before him.

“Haha, greedy Law Sovereign, not fleeing. Normally, I couldn’t keep up with his dodging speed, but if he dares to fight me head-on… I’ll kill him quickly. This will be my achievement,” the eight-clawed beast True God roared with excitement, its single eye flashing with cruel intensity.

Boom!

Boom!

The two massive figures finally crossed paths in an instant. As the eight-clawed beast True God roared and swung one of its front claws through the air, clang! The blade met the claw, but Luo Feng instantly evaded, swirling like a whirlwind.

“Another dodge!” The eight-clawed beast True God raged inwardly. Its lightning-fast tail lashed out like a whip with no bones, segment after segment connecting seamlessly, forming an arc as it howled toward Luo Feng. Yet, when Luo Feng’s blurred blade shadow barely touched the edge of the tail, he suddenly executed a stomp and appeared directly on the back of the eight-clawed beast True God.

It seems slow when described, but in reality, the moment they crossed paths, Luo Feng was already on the beast’s back.

“Whoosh!”

Finally, the Blood Shadow Blade in Luo Feng’s hand swung!

Slash!!!

The blade light flowed like water, ethereal and unpredictable, instantly slashing toward the elongated neck of the eight-clawed beast True God. However, the beast twisted its head backward, opening its blood-dripping maw filled with fangs, directly biting toward Luo Feng’s blade.

“Boom!!!”

The originally water-like blade light instantly exploded, unleashing incomparable, terrifying piercing power.

Luo Feng’s ultimate blade technique—Water-Fire Light!

“Awwww~~” The piercing force contained in the strike from ‘Blood Shadow Blade,’ a precious embryo of the Dandong River lineage, caused the eight-clawed beast True God to cry out in terror and pain.

Its single eye widened in shock, and its heart was filled with disbelief: “Impossible! Impossible! How can his divine power after combustion surpass mine? I am a True God, while he is merely a Law Sovereign!”

It was wrong.

It was very wrong.

Indeed, the eight-clawed beast True God’s divine power was a level stronger than Luo Feng’s. However, having never joined the army, it didn’t understand the special divine power combustion techniques. Luo Feng, merely using the first volume of ‘Severance,’ already compensated for the difference in divine power. With the second volume of ‘Severance,’ he even surpassed this True God!

In terms of divine power combustion, Luo Feng was even stronger!

His already extraordinary close combat dodging skills became even more formidable. The attacks from the eight-clawed beast True God were easily evaded or deflected by Luo Feng, while Luo Feng’s strikes could only be endured by the beast.

I slash!

Slash!

Slash!

Luo Feng attacked furiously. Maintaining the combustion from the second volume of ‘Severance,’ his divine power was rapidly depleting. Even if no True Gods were approaching from afar, he couldn’t sustain this for long, so he had to be fast! Fast! Fast! His entire soul seemed to flow into the Blood Shadow Blade in his hand.

Water-Fire Light! Water-Fire Light! Water-Fire Light! Water-Fire Light! Water-Fire Light! Water-Fire Light!

The blade light flowed like water, carrying terrifying power.

Even its power seemed to be increasing.

Under this extreme pressure… Luo Feng’s understanding of blade techniques was improving, though he was unaware of it at the moment. All he knew was to kill the eight-clawed beast True God before him as quickly as possible with all his might.

“No, no…” The eight-clawed beast True God was completely stunned.

Almost instantly, hundreds of blade lights struck it in succession, rapidly weakening it.

It panicked.

It feared.

It wanted to flee!

“No, no…” The eight-clawed beast True God no longer had any thoughts of killing Luo Feng. It no longer cared why this Law Sovereign possessed such combat strength—it only wanted to escape and save its life!

However, against Luo Feng’s ghost-like close combat techniques, even escape was a luxury.

No escape!

“I slash! Slash! Slash…” Luo Feng roared furiously. A blurred, massive blade shadow appeared, as if his entire body had merged with the Blood Shadow Blade. The water-like blade lights surged wave after wave toward the eight-clawed beast True God. Every second, thousands upon thousands of blade lights howled forth, annihilating everything relentlessly.

It was a storm—an annihilating storm.

No escape!

No defense!

Everything was at a complete disadvantage.

Stunned.

It wasn’t only the eight-clawed beast True God under attack that was stunned. Even the dozens of nearby True Gods who had flown toward Luo Feng upon noticing him were equally stunned.

“How is this possible?”

“Dodging skills being impressive is one thing, but how can his attacks be this strong…”

“Impossible!”

“There’s no way. His blade must be a mechanical artifact! It must be a mechanical artifact!” In an instant, they could not accept the idea that a True God could be defeated by a Law Sovereign in direct combat. They could only accept one explanation—that the Law Sovereign was wielding a mechanical artifact, and that blade was a mechanical artifact!

Through the operation of the mechanical core within the blade, it was unleashing combat power far beyond what the Law Sovereign should possess.

“It must be this!”

Meanwhile, far away at the edge of the True God-level battlefield, the squad leader, who had been silently lurking, stared wide-eyed in astonishment at the unfolding scene.

Earlier, when he saw Luo Feng charge out, he had shaken his head inwardly, thinking that this rookie, He Feng, was too foolish, too arrogant, and too dismissive of a True God’s strength. After all, even he, the squad leader, with the aid of a mechanical artifact, might be able to kill that True God, but the time it would take would certainly result in being surrounded and trapped by other True Gods.

“He’s definitely going to die,” the squad leader had thought at the time.

But now—

“How… How…” The squad leader felt his mind go blank. How could a rookie be this strong—strong enough to dominate a True God? This was absolute suppression! Even among ordinary True Gods, such a result shouldn’t be this absurd.

“It must be a mechanical artifact.”

“He must have possessed a mechanical artifact before joining the army. His blade must be a mechanical artifact,” the squad leader immediately concluded. “It must be this! It must be! That blade must have boosted his strength by several levels, allowing him to completely suppress this beast True God.”

At this moment, across the entire True God-level battlefield, though the fighting was fierce, over a thousand True Gods had noticed the distant battle at the farthest edge. One side was an ordinary eight-clawed beast True God among them, while the other was merely a Law Sovereign. Yet the reality was… the Law Sovereign was slaughtering the True God, who couldn’t even fight back.

“That blade must be a mechanical artifact.”

“It must be.”

Almost every True God reached the same conclusion.

The Blood Shadow Blade, as a precious embryo, was indeed valuable, but it wasn’t like they imagined—boosting Luo Feng’s power by several levels. It only enhanced his attack power by one level. Luo Feng’s true strength came from his close combat techniques, the first two volumes of ‘Severance,’ and the ‘Water-Fire Light’ he had cultivated.

Wave after wave of water-like blade lights relentlessly assaulted the eight-clawed beast True God. Moreover, these blade lights were becoming increasingly perfect. Under the endless onslaught, the beast’s resistance grew weaker and weaker.

“No——”

Suddenly, the eight-clawed beast True God felt an overwhelming sense… this time, it truly was going to die.

“I am a True God!” The eight-clawed beast True God roared inwardly.

“Boom! Boom! Boom~~~”

Under the endless blade lights…

The eight-clawed beast True God finally lost all vitality. Its life core had completely collapsed and disintegrated. Its battle armor and other items rapidly detached. Luo Feng swiftly waved his hand, sealing the beast True God and all the fallen items into his space.

“Whoosh!”

Instantly, Luo Feng transformed into a streak of light, fleeing into the distance. At the site of the previous battle, although many purple vines floated broken in the swamp, there were no traces left.

A True God had died!

A Law Sovereign had won!

And Luo Feng had obtained over thirty beast True God corpses!

“Chase him down! Retrieve my brothers’ corpses from the Nine-Smoke Marsh!” Roared a powerful beast True God with three golden horns from the distant True God battlefield, furious and enraged.
