Clang!
The two supreme artifacts collided.
From the point of impact, terrifying shockwaves propagated outwards in all directions, and spatial cracks spiderwebbed through the surrounding void. Augusta himself was sent flying backwards by the recoil, but in the vast emptiness of the high sky, he merely stumbled and steadied himself again, looking at Lin Lei with a trace of shock.
"Lin Lei, no wonder you dared to claim you were coming to kill me. Your strength has nearly doubled," Augusta said, staring fixedly at Lin Lei.
"I have grown stronger, but you have not," Lin Lei replied, his tone cold.
"Haha... who lives and who dies is not so certain," Augusta laughed.
Lin Lei's body emitted a sizzling sound as dark green dragon scales instantly surfaced across his entire form. Sharp spikes erupted from his spine, and in a flash, he had fully transformed.
"Is that so?" Lin Lei answered with a cold smile.
In an instant, Lin Lei's figure became a streak of light, shooting towards Augusta, who hovered miles away in the sky. For sovereign-level powerhouses, a distance of miles during such a heated battle required a fraction of a fraction of a second to cross—testament to the sheer speed of their attacks.
Clang! Clang!
The two supreme artifacts clashed again and again, shattering the surrounding space with each impact. Each time, Augusta was sent reeling back by the force, seemingly at a disadvantage. Yet, he had clearly blocked every strike.
"Killing me won't be that easy," Augusta laughed heartily.
Lin Lei's face showed not a hint of a smile.
"That's about enough," Lin Lei murmured to himself. From the start until now, Lin Lei had only revealed a portion of his strength. He was worried that if he unleashed his full power with the first strike and failed to kill his opponent, it might scare Augusta into fleeing. That would complicate things. After all, while Lin Lei's offensive power had increased, his speed had not seen much improvement.
The fusion of his Laws involved the 'Sword Intent' technique, but as for speed, he hadn't made significant gains.
"Die!" Lin Lei thought.
After yet another clash, Lin Lei's Life Sovereign Sword, as before, tore through the void and struck towards Augusta. A torrent of dark green sword energy, slightly disordered, surged forth. Augusta, as if by habit, moved to parry this strike. But the very instant they drew close— The slightly disordered dark green sword energy from the Life Sovereign Sword seemed to snap into formation like disciplined soldiers, instantly coalescing into a single beam of dark green light, as thick as a man's waist.
Full power unleashed!
BOOM!
The beam of sword energy slammed into the sword of light. Augusta's face drained of color in an instant. He felt an unstoppable force bearing down, so immense that the sword of light rebounded against his own chest...
A flash of golden light flickered and vanished.
The surrounding heaven and earth were completely erased into nothingness. Augusta, too, had disappeared without a trace.
Was Augusta, reduced to ashes?
"Hmm? Merely severely wounded?" Lin Lei's brow furrowed. His fused senses clearly detected a large hole in Augusta's chest. Deathly pale, Augusta was using the momentum from the impact to flee rapidly through the spatial cracks. "I didn't expect that even after taking my strongest strike, this Augusta could still survive." Without hesitation, Lin Lei shot forward at maximum speed, diving directly into the spatial rift.
The clash of sovereigns caused tremendous upheaval.
In the
"The Sovereign was nearly killed? Luckily, that beam of sword light was partially blocked by his sword of light, striking his chest instead, allowing him to escape with his life by a narrow margin."
"That strike was terrifying. That Lord Lin Lei had been hiding his true strength all along. The power of that final strike just now... it's inconceivable."
All four Light Sovereigns were deeply shaken.
"With the Sovereign's escape abilities, it will likely be some time before the outcome is decided. In this battle, one of them is bound to die. If the Sovereign perishes, that will be a major event!" As the four Light Sovereigns discussed this amongst themselves via divine consciousness, they each took action.
One Light Sovereign tore open a spatial rift directly, heading into the chaotic space to observe Lin Lei and Augusta's battle with his divine consciousness.
Another Light Sovereign immediately took a teleportation array to another plane, to notify the sovereign they had aligned with. Such major news obviously required immediate communication.
In the depths of the Chaotic Ocean, there existed a submarine city spanning ten thousand miles: Wukun City. This Wukun City was one of the three lairs of the Sovereign of Destruction, Utread.
"Sovereign, Lin Lei and Augusta have started fighting. Both have driven each other into the chaotic space. It looks like Augusta is probably going to die." A Light Sovereign, having just teleported to the
When a sovereign dies, a new sovereign is destined to be born.
If Augusta truly perished, there would be a Highgod Light Godhead available.
In a gloomy mansion in the northern district of Wukun City.
"Lin Lei and Augusta?" The eyes of the Sovereign of Destruction, Utread, lit up. He sighed, "I didn't expect that so soon after I spoke with Lin Lei, he would go and try to kill Augusta. Truly crazed." As he spoke, Utread extended a hand, as if parting curtains, and directly tore open a spatial rift.
He leaped into the void, entering the chaotic space.
Dressed in black robes, Utread stood amidst the chaotic space, his divine consciousness spreading out instantly. He easily located Lin Lei and Augusta, who were still locked in combat.
"Lin Lei appears to have an absolute advantage. That Augusta looks quite wretched," Utread smiled. "Oh... Augusta is indeed flying towards the direction of the
Amidst the multi-colored chaos of space, Augusta and Lin Lei flew at incredible speeds, one after the other. Lin Lei held the Life Sovereign Sword, his dark golden eyes coldly fixed on the figure ahead.
