“Break for me!”
Edward howled wildly.
But now that Lin Lei had activated the shadow charge extermination technique, his power had increased tenfold!
What's more, he had used such a powerful sword domain, the Shadowkill Formation.
All of Edward's limbs and tendons had been shattered. How could he possibly be a match for Lin Lei?
And then, under that terrifying sword light, Edward's feet transformed into a b.l.o.o.d.y mist!
Edward lost his center of gravity, and his entire body fell forward.
And then, from head to toe, Edward's entire body slowly transformed into a b.l.o.o.d.y mist!
Bang!
But there was no sign of anything strange happening between the heavens and earth!
Edward wasn't dead!
In the next moment, a faint purple figure appeared within the blood mist and tried to flee into the distance.
As a half-step great sage, even if his body was destroyed, he would not die so easily.
This faint blue energy was Edward's soul.
As long as his soul was not damaged, Edward would have a chance to be reborn!
Whether it was searching for life force, rebuilding a physical body, or forcibly entering a swaddle, there was no problem at all for him to seize another person's body.
Lin Lei didn't feel any emotions at all. His right hand waved through the air.
“Soul arrow.”
“Strangle.”
A thick, murderous aura directly locked onto Edward's soul.
Right now, the two of them had become mortal enemies.
Lin Lei definitely wouldn't allow Edward, a half-step great sage, to escape.
Since he had already offended him, he would die here today.
Or he wouldn't attack. Once he did, he would fight to the death!
Behind Lin Lei, an enormous amount of mageforce was rapidly transforming into spiritual energy!
Finally.
A thigh-thick soul arrow appeared behind Lin Lei.
A soul arrow!
It was more than ten times larger than the soul arrow that killed Duke Rosette!
A violet light flashed!
In the next moment, the soul arrow locked onto Edward's soul, flying directly towards him.
The soul arrow seemed to pierce through s.p.a.ce itself.
That violet soul arrow had directly pierced through Edward's soul!
Edward's anguished wails rang out through the heavens!
And then, Edward's powerful soul directly imploded!
In the skies, an incomparably enormous solar eclipse appeared.
As a half-step great sage, Edward had died under Lin Lei's soul arrow.
For a moment, countless people were incomparably shocked.
The entire area was silent!
That was a half-step great sage!
In the entire Beilageluoya Empire, there wasn't a second powerful existence!
Lin Lei had actually done it.
Not just the four great clans' allied forces who had come to slaughter Lin Lei, but also the four great dukes of the sage realm, as well as the famous half-step great sage Edward, who had been well-known in the empire for a thousand years!
At this moment, they had all completely disappeared from this world.
In the incomparably vast skies.
At this moment, only Lin Lei was standing in midair.
He was like a peerless G.o.d of war!
Everything that had just happened seemed like an illusion, causing everyone to feel that it was inconceivable.
Everyone understood this in their hearts.
From today onwards, the four great clans of the entire Beilageluoya Empire.
Had all become history
From today onwards, the number one person in the Beilageluoya Empire would be none other than the Master of the Ultimate Sword, Lin Lei.
“Uncle Bard?”
At this moment, seeing that the desolate sword saint, Bard, wasn't too far away from him, Lin Lei couldn't help but greet him.
“We haven't met in over a year. Uncle Bard, your sword intent has indeed improved quite a bit.”
“It seems it's not just your sword intent. Even your affinity with mageforce has reached the peak of the resonance level. It seems it won't be long before you will have a chance to reach the threshold of the deity-level.”
Bard was completely stunned, the corners of his mouth constantly twitching.
Right now, Lin Lei was clearly praising him, but Bard felt an inexplicable sense of humiliation.
Especially when Bard remembered that a year ago, Lin Lei had only been a half-step sage, he became very angry.
In just a year, he had gone from being a half-step sage to being a peak-stage sage of the 9th tier.
And now, you are telling me that I've improved tremendously?
Bard shook his head helplessly. Slowly, he said, “Kid, compared to you, I feel as though I've been living like a dog all these years.”
“Perhaps in the days to come, I'll have to ask you for advice on training.”
Lin Lei laughed calmly, then nodded. “Of course, no problem. But let's talk about that later. I have some things to deal with.”
Lin Lei had just finished with the four great clans and Edward. Clearly, he had some unfinished business to deal with.
“Is there anything else I need to take care of…?”
Everyone was extremely curious. Hadn't he already killed everyone he was supposed to kill.
What else was Lin Lei planning to do?
In the next moment, they knew what Lin Lei was planning to do.
Lin Lei directly stomped through the air, causing the s.p.a.ce on the ground to instantly compress. The counter-force caused Lin Lei to transform into a streak of light and shoot out.
Lin Lei's body appeared in the air.
Immediately afterwards, Lin Lei's voice rang out throughout the entire empire.
“From today onwards, the Beilageluoya Empire's Rosette, Peonies, Rose, and Sunflower clans will not be allowed to have any new sages in the next five thousand years.”
“In addition, no one is allowed to take a single step outside the perimeters of their clan.”
Lin Lei's words were like thunder, exploding in every single corner of the empire.
In the next moment, the Sword of Damocles in Lin Lei's right hand chopped out four times in the direction of the four great clans.
A silver light appeared in the skies of the four great clans.
The members of the four great clans raised their heads, their faces completely ashen.
In the skies, an incomparably enormous Sword of Damocles had appeared within it.
As long as Lin Lei wanted to, he could annihilate the members of the four great clans at any time.
Seeing Lin Lei's actions, everyone couldn't help but draw in a cold breath.
The methods of the Master of the Ultimate Sword were simply too vicious!
Not only did he annihilate the allied armies of the four great clans, he didn't allow the members of the four great clans to leave their family at all.
In this way, the decline of the four great clans was inevitable!
Lin Lei had completely destroyed the future development of the four great clans.
He was silent in mid-air.
He stared calmly at the ground, waiting for the four great clans to reply.
His scrutinizing eyes were clearly telling Lin Lei that there was still a sage hidden within the four great clans.
But to Lin Lei, who had already reached the peak of a tier 9 sage, it didn't really matter.
These existences hidden within the four great clans were all people whose lifespans were about to end and were waiting to die.
To the current Lin Lei, they posed no threat at all.
Roughly half an hour pa.s.sed.
From the skies, a helpless voice rang out.
“Rosette clan, heed my orders…”
And then, the Sunflower clan and the Peony clan began to issue orders.
Finally, everyone turned to look at the silent Rosette clan.
At this moment, a sigh could be heard from the skies.
“Rosette clan, heed my orders.”
