He could not cover both ends. He had to choose one.
What did that mean?
Yang Sufeng froze. Then realization struck, and his gaze snapped toward Qin An. Seeing Qin An launch a fierce attack, he roared.
"Shift your power! Defend the Long Sword!"
Jiang Anping and Xu Rulin reacted quickly, but not quickly enough to beat Qin An.
In almost the same instant, Qin An and Reincarnation redirected their attacks toward the colorless Long Sword.
As Qin An had said, his opponents were powerful, and the Ten Thousand Demons Subjugation Formation was formidable. But it had one fatal weakness: its linchpin.
Qin An had not expected them to shift their power to protect it.
But even so, what did it matter?
The world rarely offered a way to have both. How could they protect the linchpin and the colorless Long Sword at once?
Stripped of its power, the colorless Long Sword was like a heap of glittering gems, ready to be shattered at any moment.
The instant Qin An's attack struck it, fine cracks appeared across the blade and spread like a spiderweb.
Before a single breath had passed, the colorless Long Sword shattered into fragments that filled the sky.
Boom!
A terrifying roar rang out.
As the colorless Long Sword broke apart, its remaining power surged backward as though it meant to destroy everything.
The other Holdouts from the Forbidden Lands immediately acted together, weakening the blast.
It was easy enough. After all, the three Forbidden Land Holdouts had compressed their strength to the One-Unity Realm.
Yet even as they dealt with it, they could not hide the shock in their eyes at the battle they had just witnessed.
Nothing else mattered: Qin An had broken the Ten Thousand Demons Subjugation Formation by himself. That alone was enough
