Xiao Lingxi slowly raised her longsword.
That sword was snow-white from hilt to tip, faint fluorescent light flowing across its blade, with hundreds of millions of stars glittering within.
They were truly hundreds of millions of stars!
Within the sword lay an entire great world!
The corners of Xuan Qingyi's lips lifted slightly as the Fifth-Epoch King's aura suddenly soared. Azure-blue light circulated around her, transforming into ancient and sacred runes.
She slowly raised her hand. Runes revolved slowly within her palm.
The runes suddenly swelled, becoming hundreds of millions of threads that spread in every direction.
"Slaughter Formation!"
As Xuan Qingyi's voice fell, those countless threads wove themselves into a vast formation in an instant.
Thought-Formation!
And it was even faster than before!
The formation blanketed hundreds of millions of miles, trapping Xiao Lingxi within.
Azure-blue radiance flowed through the formation, laws intertwined, and the Great Dao thundered.
Countless streams of Sword Qi condensed into shape and slashed toward Xiao Lingxi from all directions.
Every stream of Sword Qi contained the power of a Fifth-Epoch King, enough to slay an ordinary Fifth-Epoch King.
Yet Xiao Lingxi did not retreat. Her figure darted between the Sword Qi, white robes fluttering as her longsword danced lightly.
Each sword strike precisely shattered stream after stream of Sword Qi. Her movements flowed like drifting clouds and running water, without a single wasted motion.
"Your formation is indeed stronger than last time," Xiao Lingxi said calmly.
"And the sword in my hand..."
She suddenly raised her longsword, and white light surged across its blade.
It was her purest Sword Intent, every bit of Sword Dao she had learned throughout her life.
"Has also grown stronger!"
One sword strike descended.
White swordlight soared into the heavens, transforming into a sword radiance that reached from sky
