"Tap, tap, tap."
With every step Jiang Junyi took, the shadow on his long blade grew thicker.
"Whoosh!"
The darkness coiling around the Shadow Blade now seemed like pitch-black flames, rising, leaping, burning ever more fiercely!
Wave after wave of terrifying pressure gathered around Jiang Junyi.
Even with the Nine Heavens Golden Light Shield protecting him, Lin Xiu's heart began to tremble.
He would never forget the terror of being dominated by Black Star that day.
"Heh... hehe, you can't possibly break it," Lin Xiu said stubbornly. "Even if you do, do you think I don't have other methods?!"
Jiang Junyi said nothing. He only raised his long blade.
"Boom—!"
The raging shadows grew wildly, as if they meant to pierce the heavens.
"I am atomic—!"
Jiang Junyi swept his long blade lightly, drawing a dark-blue arc above his head, then brought it down in a single slash!
"Boom—!"
An absurd blade beam cleaved toward Lin Xiu as if splitting mountains and severing seas.
"No! That's not... possible—!" Lin Xiu roared.
The instant the blade beam touched the light shield, endless dark-blue True Qi erupted in this space.
"Crack!"
The golden light shield held for only about two or three seconds before shattering with a crash.
"Crack, crack, crack!"
One sound after another rang out from Lin Xiu's body, like vessels breaking.
He had not lied. He really did have other methods on him.
But what use were they?
If they could not block it, they could not block it.
Jiang Junyi's slash had condensed the Heart of Shadow and all of his own power.
After a long while, the True Qi dispersed.
The members of the Black Palace stared at Shadow in utter confusion.
Shadow was actually this powerful?!
Especially Leo, whose little mouth would not stop trembling.
Why!
