Chapter 440 Date of Death—Second to None

Even through the broken castle and the fierce a.s.sa.s.sination, Jiang Qiansong’s stern whistle still clearly sounded in Black Ghost’s ears.

Black Ghost heard the whistle that signaled a retreat, but he had been completely unresponsive.

For any aggressive combatant, once suppressed in a battle, one could barely find a chance to change the situation.

Black Ghost wasn’t simply suppressed.

He couldn’t exert the super attack power. His reaction speed could not keep up with the rhythm of the battle, so his shortcoming of weak defense was completely magnified.

That day, Black Ghost was being completely crushed by Li Tianlan.

Black Ghost could only move back.

He and Jiang Qiansong were separated by Li Tianlan.

That way, he kept running, only to get farther and farther from Jiang Qiansong.

All the interior of the ancient castle had been completely destroyed. The solid wood stairs, decorative armors, bullet-proof gla.s.s, flower beds in the open air, valuable furniture and electrical appliances were all shattered. Huge cracks continued to spread on the walls. All the lights had completely disappeared; there was no lamp light or any other illumination source in the castle.

Even the Thunder and Raging Fire was completely gone.

But the fighting in the darkness became crazier and crazier.

All the forces had been completely condensed by Li Tianlan; never spreading, but concentrated to the apex. The subtle light often lit up in Li Tianlan’s hands and then was extinguished in an instant. Later it became a frenzied surging force in the castle.

Black Ghost kept dodging in the darkness, but was still unable to get away from Li Tianlan for half a step.

The breaking sound of Dragon Fist sounded in the darkness, and the s.p.a.ce was violently torn. Black Ghost’s receding body moved horizontally for a distance of five or six meters, then rushed to the handrail on the second floor of the castle.

The Dragon Fist’s roaring power drowned the multifunctional metal wall on one side. The wall completely collapsed, accompanied by the sound of a thunderous vibration. The moment the light next door lit up, it was directly destroyed by violence.

The light approached for a moment.

Black Ghost turned back hastily, but could not see Li Tianlan’s shadow in sight.

“Boom!”

Just as he was turning back, a ma.s.sive strength had shattered all the railings on the second floor. The broken objects were flying over. Li Tianlan approached Black Ghost in a completely unreasonable manner, and used his hands to clench his shoulders.

The moment the two were close to each other, they moved forward and backward, fast almost to the limit. Li Tianlan pushed Black Ghost’s body directly through the wall. There were sounds of metal collapsing along with the sounds of stone collapsing.

On Black Ghost’s arms, a layer of seemingly fragile metal guards suddenly appeared.

The insane attack poured out like a storm.

Before Black Ghost was able to pull out his sword, his arms shook in unison. The moment when the violent force gathered on his arms and broke out, a dragon roar sounded.

Black Ghost rushed out with fists completely wrapped with metals.

Li Tianlan’s clenched fists slammed into Black Ghost’s metal guards.

Blood sputtered out.

Vaguely, Li Tianlan’s fists had exposed bones.

The seemingly fragile but extremely tough arm guards completely shattered with one punch.

Black Ghost followed the power and retreated. But when his figure had just moved, the feeling of a fatal danger behind him was close to him again.

The stern whistle sounded again.

Black Ghost grew more anxious inside.

The metal arm guard was already the third piece of life-saving equipment on him. That should have represented three opportunities to interrupt Li Tianlan ’s offensive attack and allow him to fight back. But Li Tianlan was getting crazier and crazier. Black Ghost did not even dare to think about Li Tianlan’s current injuries. The opponent’s desire for combat and aggressiveness showed that he was completely a lunatic. Regardless of everything, Li Tianlan continued to rush forward, even if his injuries were severe. As long as he didn’t die, he could continue to fight.

Black Ghost stretched his body in the air. He used his legs to lightly bounce against the wall. His whole person turned instantly, trying to evade Li Tianlan at all costs and to rush out of the castle.

Li Tianlan rushed towards him.

Black Ghost bounced against the wall.

For a moment, the figures of the two men staggered.

Black Ghost froze for a moment.

At that moment, he had not had time to figure out what it meant. While the violent loud noises were heard, the rear wall suddenly collapsed. Li Tianlan turned back again and was almost in front of Black Ghost in the blink of an eye.

Black Ghost did not hesitate and rushed forward.

The momentary staggering had caused the two to change positions and directions.

In front of Black Ghost was Jiang Qiansong.

Rus.h.!.+

Black Ghost was rus.h.i.+ng!

Li Tianlan was also rus.h.i.+ng.

A condensed and violent force exploded completely around Li Tianlan.

The thunder and flames condensed into white lines flickering in the darkness.

The lines intertwined in the ancient castle, dense like a net.

Li Tianlan waved the enormous net in his hand to chase Black Ghost, almost occupying the whole mountain area. The somewhat ludicrously large castle kept bursting and cracking. The crazy destructive power raged at every corner in the darkness. Wherever Li Tianlan pa.s.sed by, everything around was shattered and fell down. The entire castle had begun to crack, and seemed to collapse at any time.

The violent attack covered the castle in an instant, and the chaos was to the extreme. The power spread like a celestial web. Black Ghost dodged continuously, moving forward and back. His distance from Jiang Qiansong became unstable.

The stern whistle grew sharper.

Black Ghost was anxious and impatient. His breathing became faster and faster.

Li Tianlan was the Chosen One.

But he wasn’t a real Invincible Realm expert after all.

In that battle, he didn’t feel the majesty of being an Invincible Realm expert. The opponent just caught one of his flaws and then zoomed in infinitely. That kind of fighting style only restrained him.

He only needed a chance.

An opportunity to block Li Tianlan’s attack and instantly counterattack!

With his violent attack power, enough to rank in the Divine List, he could completely send the so-called Chosen One to the ground at the moment of his counterattack.

He only needed a chance.

Even if the chance was only found in one second, or even half a second.

The force that filled almost every inch of s.p.a.ce was still surging.

Black Ghost took a step forward.

For a very delicate time, the stern whistle was still echoing.

But all the power that had raged everywhere suddenly disappeared.

Li Tianlan stopped in place.

Suddenly, Black Ghost hardly hesitated.

He turned around and pulled out the knife.

The blade light that almost tore heaven and earth instantly solidified all the darkness in the castle.

Li Tianlan was pale and looked up at the knife light.

He knew that Black Ghost needed a chance.

So he gave Black Ghost a chance.

The insane madness devoured all his intellect. In that state, Li Tianlan only knew the battle; he had never been prepared for Black Ghost’ change of direction.

But he then s.h.i.+fted his direction and rushed towards Jiang Qiansong.

Li Tianlan was not sure of being able to break the stalemate between the two, at least not before Black Ghost approached Jiang Qiansong.

So he gave Black Ghost a chance directly.

He took the initiative to stop, facing the strongest blow from Black Ghost.

The dark knife light was like a black arc in the night.

Vaguely, Li Tianlan saw Black Ghost’s eyes full of extreme violence behind the knife light.

Li Tianlan smiled.

The silver bracelet on his arm instantly turned into a silver long sword.

Li Tianlan clenched his sword blade.

Then he held the sword up to his eyebrows.

In such a dark environment, no one could see that scene.

Black Ghost could see that sword.

But he would never have a chance to tell anything.

The silver sword light s.h.i.+ned in the night.

Suddenly, the sword light madly spread in all directions.

The silver light surrounded Li Tianlan, like a ring.

The sword intent was so empty; not heavy, not harsh, and even without a bit of sharpness and aggressiveness.

The light continued to spread. The surrounding darkness poured into the halo frantically, and the silver sword light became brighter.

At that moment, Li Tianlan was standing in the middle of the halo, and his figure was unprecedentedly clear.

The halo shone over the surrounding mess like a mirror, and even Black Ghost’s knife light was clearly reflected.

That scene was so familiar.

That was even more familiar for Black Ghost.

He suddenly opened his eyes.

Right then, his eyes were filled with fear.

It was not until that moment that he understood; his so-called opportunity was simply not enough, far from enough.

Li Tianlan raised his sword blade and closed his eyes.

No one had ever seen his sword.

In other words, it should have been a sword unknown to the world, until he truly feared no one.

In the face of Jiang Qiannian’s move of Living with Heaven and Earth, when the situation had been extremely dangerous, Li Tianlan had not chosen the current sword.

At the moment, the situation was just right, unknown to others.

With that sword out, Black Ghost had to die.

The blade of Falling Stars pierced upwards stably.

That was his kendo.

In his kendo, that sword might not be the strongest, but it was enough to give everyone the strongest fear.

Li Tianlan had every reason to believe that if that sword was exposed, w.a.n.g Tianzong, Gu Xingyun, and even including many people who were like enemies or friends, whether close or far, all of them would kill him at all costs.

Because that sword represented a completely unknown path.

Same as Destruction, Punishment of Heaven, Breaking the Sea.

That sword also had a name.

Unparalleled move.

Second to None!
