Chapter 27: Severing Tian Hu’s Claws
“The first on the Divine Sword List, the Divine Dragon Sword!!!”
“It’s the Divine Dragon Sword!”
“The first on the Divine Sword List, it truly lives up to its reputation!”
“If there were any doubts before, now who dares say the Divine Dragon Sword isn’t worthy of first place? I’ll be the first to curse them to death!”
“Heavens, I can actually see the Divine Dragon Sword, first on the Divine Sword List, with my own eyes! This life has been worth it! This life has been worth it!”
“That was Tian Meng, the Hall Master of the Farming School’s Lieshan Hall, wielding the Gan Jiang and Mo Ye, ranked sixteenth on the Divine Sword List, yet he was actually nailed to death with one sword!”
“As expected of the Divine Dragon Sword, its power is simply earth-shattering!”
“Just now, for a moment, I really thought a Divine Dragon had descended upon the world, and I fell to my knees with a thud. My legs are still weak, and I can’t get up!”
“……”
Everyone gazed at the Divine Dragon Sword, which was embedded in Tian Meng’s chest and nailed to the stone pillar, with reverence as if it were a deity, discussing and marveling in astonishment.
Amidst the awe and astonishment of the crowd, there were also countless fervent gazes.
“The Divine Dragon Sword! The first on the Divine Sword List!”
On the rooftop of an inn, Yan Dan, clad in black robes, held the Mo Mei, ranked twenty-sixth on the Divine Sword List, his eyes burning:
“If I can get the Divine Dragon Sword, I can get the reward for the first place on the Divine Sword List when it’s updated next month!”
Having heard that the Martial God froze Shu He with one sword and killed Zhao Gao, and now seeing the Martial God kill Tian Meng with one sword, he understood in his heart that seeking the Dragon Core from the Martial God was courting death.
But the Divine Dragon Sword was right in front of him, if he snatched it and ran.
With his strength, the Martial God might not be able to catch him.
And with the Divine Dragon Sword in hand, his battle power would skyrocket.
The Martial God, without the Divine Dragon Sword, would have his battle power reduced.
With one increasing and one decreasing, the gap between him and the Martial God would be greatly reduced.
“Should I snatch it or not?”
Yan Dan’s heart was in turmoil.
His palms were covered in sweat.
He knew that once he made a move, he would be gambling with his life.
Success would certainly bring heaven-defying gains.
Failure……
Would mean instant death.
From the fact that Tian Meng was killed with one sword just for seeking an audience with the Martial God, it could be seen that the Martial God was a decisive killer, and his moods were unpredictable.
He wouldn’t pin his hopes on the Martial God showing mercy.
Should he take a gamble……?
On the other side.
“Lord Donghuang, now is the perfect opportunity to obtain the Divine Dragon Sword, are we not going to make a move?”
Xing Hun’s sinister eyes flickered with a faint green light, staring intently at the Divine Dragon Sword, itching to make a move.
“No rush! There are more than just us coveting the Divine Dragon Sword, let them test the waters first!”
Donghuang Taiyi’s voice was ethereal, his whole body shrouded in black robes, wearing a black mask, making him even more mysterious and bizarre.
Before the Martial God appeared, he was also a man standing at the top of the food chain in this world.
But after the Martial God appeared.
He had a kind of instinctive fear.
Therefore.
He dared not be careless.
Care and caution were the guarantees of his achievements today.
“Big Brother!”
Just as everyone was hesitating and struggling over whether to make a move to snatch the Divine Dragon Sword, a thunderous, rough voice exploded from Flying Immortal Pavilion.
Tian Hu, holding the Tiger Soul, charged out like a fierce tiger.
Tian Zhong, Bone Demon, Dumb Slave, and other Farming School experts followed closely behind.
“Big Brother!”
Seeing Tian Meng’s tragic death, his body nailed to the stone pillar, Tian Hu’s eyes were bloodshot, and he was furious.
Although he had a fiery temper, he was not stupid.
Tian Meng’s strength was on par with his.
Now, he was killed with one sword without any power to resist.
He was definitely not the Martial God’s match.
But if he just ran away like this.
How would he face anyone in the future?
The only way was……
Boom.
Tian Hu exerted force with his legs, the ground exploded, dirt and stones tumbled, and his whole body shot towards Tian Meng like a cannonball.
He had to get the Divine Dragon Sword first.
The Martial God, without the Divine Dragon Sword, would surely have his strength greatly reduced.
That was his only chance.
“Tian Hu……”
Yan Dan, Donghuang Taiyi, Xing Hun, Yue Shen, and other experts from the Hundred Schools of Thought stared intently at Tian Hu.
Once Tian Hu got his hands on the Divine Dragon Sword, that would be their time to strike.
Ten steps!
Five steps!
◈◈◈
Tian Hu held the Divine Weapon Tiger Soul in his right hand, and reached for the Divine Dragon Sword with his left.
“The Divine Dragon Sword is mine!”
Looking at the Divine Dragon Sword, which was within reach, Tian Hu’s eyes were instantly replaced by greed and fervor, pushing out the hatred and anger.
The Divine Dragon Sword, the first-ranked Divine Sword on the Divine Sword List!
Every Divine Sword in the top ten of the Divine Sword List possessed earth-shattering power.
And the Divine Dragon Sword was able to suppress all the Divine Swords in the world, ranking first, which showed its power.
◈◈◈
He felt that the Martial God was so strong, very likely because of the Divine Dragon Sword.
If he got it.
A month later, he might be able to obtain a treasure reward that was no less than the Dragon Core.
He gathered all his true qi in his palm, reaching for the hilt of the Divine Dragon Sword.
Yan Dan, Xing Hun, Donghuang Taiyi, and other experts widened their eyes.
They gathered their strength.
Ready to make a move.
Whoosh.
However, at this moment, a sharp sword qi burst out from the Divine Dragon Sword.
This work is organized and uploaded by 69 Book Bar~~
It sounded like a dragon’s roar.
It sounded like a tiger’s howl.
The sound was like thunder.
It was as fast as lightning.
The sharp golden sword qi instantly swept through the void, the air was cut open, and faint space cracks as black as ink appeared.
Tian Hu’s eyes widened in anger.
His pupils revealed indescribable fear.
He watched helplessly as the sword qi slashed across his outstretched left hand.
Chila.
An arm fell to the ground, blood splattering.
Bone-piercing pain swept through every nerve.
Pain!
Pain that was beyond description.
“Ahhh, my hand……my hand……”
Tian Hu let out a miserable wail, heart-wrenching.
His whole body instantly lost its balance, falling from the air, crashing heavily on the ground.
“Hiss!”
In an instant, countless gasps of cold air were heard all around.
The fervor in the eyes of Yan Dan, Xing Hun, and others was instantly doused with cold water, and their hearts sank to the bottom.
Tian Hu, as the Hall Master of the Farming School’s Chi You Hall, wielding the Divine Weapon Tiger Soul, was among the top experts in the world.
There can be no two suns in the sky, nor two tigers in the Tian family.
This was evident.
Yet the Martial God was not even present.
Just a burst of sword qi from the Divine Dragon Sword severed Tian Hu’s arm.
“How is this possible? How can it be so powerful?”
Yan Dan was shocked and terrified.
Even as the leader of the Mohist School, with his high level of martial arts, if he launched a sudden sneak attack, wanting to cut off Tian Hu’s arm would also be almost impossible.
“Is this the power of the Divine Sword, or did the Martial God control the Divine Dragon Sword from a distance?”
Donghuang Taiyi’s deep eyes flickered with endless light, even with his cultivation and strength, he could not see through the truth of the matter.
“I’ve also seen some records about the legendary Earthly Immortals, how can they be so powerful?”
“Could it be that he has surpassed the Earthly Immortal?”
“Impossible!”
“Absolutely impossible!”
Donghuang Taiyi directly denied this unrealistic speculation.
In the world today.
It was almost impossible for an Earthly Immortal to be born, how could there be an expert who surpassed the Earthly Immortal?
For the Martial God to become an Earthly Immortal was already a stroke of luck.
It was absolutely impossible to surpass the Earthly Immortal.
“Lord Donghuang, what do we do now?”
Yue Shen’s beautiful eyes seemed to have countless stars rotating, her voice was ethereal, melodious and pleasing to the ear.
“Wait and see!”
Donghuang Taiyi’s voice was deep and quiet, with no hint of joy or anger, mysterious and unfathomable.
“Hall Master!”
At this time, the Farming School experts, Tian Zhong, Bone Demon, and Dumb Slave, who were in shock, came back to their senses and quickly ran towards Tian Hu, their eyes wary of their surroundings, as if facing a great enemy.
It was as if a fierce tiger that chose people to devour was hiding nearby, ready to jump out and swallow them at any moment.
Tian Hu climbed up from the ground, his right hand plunged the Tiger Soul sword into the ground, and he quickly stopped the bleeding.
With his personality, he should have been cursing and fuming with rage at this moment.
But at this time, Tian Hu was unusually silent.
If one observed carefully, one would find that his eyes were filled with deep fear.
At that moment just now.
He truly felt the arrival of death.
If that sword qi had been a little off, it wouldn’t have been as simple as a severed arm.
But rather, his whole body would have been split in two.
Roar.
Suddenly, a crisp dragon’s roar came, and the Divine Dragon Sword, which was embedded in Tian Meng’s chest, suddenly moved.
