<h4>Chapter 1510: Sword Suppression</h4>


    Zhang Lie shouted from the back, "All of you, handle your opponent. Leave the rest to me!"


    The four members of Team Zenith each faced off against their corresponding enemy faction.


    The medemon Chi Chi snorted coldly. "Truly arrogant."


    Jinyang Hua smiled. "Isn''t this a good thing?"


    Yao Long nodded. "Let''s deal with this fellow first."


    The medemon Chi Chi streaked down from the heavens, trailing scarlet mes. "Let me take on this arrogant fellow!"


    He transformed into a human-shaped bolt of lightning that shot forward. Scarlet lightning shed and crackled all around him.


    Zhang Lie drew his sword and met Chi Chi inbat.


    A wave of divine light rose into the air as the mes burned brightly. A sword sh swept across the heavens.


    "Argh!" a cultivator shouted from behind, trying to defend himself with a weapon and, when that failed, to use a secret art. It was all meaningless.


    The shockwaves that resulted from the impact exploded and sent the cultivators nearby reeling.


    After just a few blows, Chi Chi could sense that something was amiss. He thought that all the cultivators were roughly at the same level, but after fighting Zhang Lie, he found that he was horribly mistaken. Zhang Lie''sbat strength was significantly higher than his, and he had managed such a feat within a century at most!


    His mespletely suppressed by Zhang Lie''s pale blue sword, Chi Chi found himself being one-sidedly beaten. All his attacks were easily countered and neutralized by Zhang Lie, who unleashed tremendous power.


    "[The Boundless de: Yawning Wave]!"


    Zhang Lie manifested a sword will that rose into the heavens, strong beyond human understanding, vast as the ocean.


    The sun glowed with splendor. Golden runes patterned the air. Starlight shone through the heavens.


    The realm, consecrated with the might of a golden sun, resplendent and zing, was so bright that the spectators had to look away.


    The spectators found their souls trembling.


    Heaven and earth resonated with the will of the sword and the aura of the godlike being within the sun.


    Within just a few blows, one of Chi Chi''s wings had been cut off. He clutched his wound and cried out, "What kind of sword do you have?!"


    "A sword that can kill you."


    The temperature dropped to sub-zero values, and a strong wind buffeted the battlefield. Blood-colored frost appeared around the twobatants.


    "[The Boundless de: the River Lethe]!"


    A ster river materialized in the air. As though the doors to hell had just been thrown open, tens of thousands of serpents rushed out in a flood.


    Each serpent was pitch-ck like the abyss, like the dark of night, and speckled with starlight, a miniaturized version of the Milky Way. The serpents were guides and ferrymen both, leading departed souls into sky and space, freed from the mortal coil.


    As Zhang Lie''s sword swung down, the ster river struck the mortal world.


    Chi Chi could sense the incredible might emanating from the ster river. Small though theherworld serpents might be, each seemed almost to be alive, bearing its own soul and life force.


    He was unhappy to do so, but had to use the relic that his client gave him.


    As his body zed with me, he retrieved a ruler of incredible might from his robes. A rose-colored hue streaked across the heavens.


    "What''s that?" someone cried out.


    "I''ve never heard of the medemons possessing such a relic."


    Theherworld serpents fell like meteors, whizzing down toward Chi Chi.


    The ruler shed against theherworld serpents with such force that the sound echoed through the air. Chi Chi gave off so much light he looked like a glowing sun. He was attempting to vaporize Zhang Lie''sherworld river.


    However, considering the size and depth of Zhang Lie''s river, even the relic of incredible strength wasn''t able to obliterate it.


    "[The Boundless de: the River Lethe]!"


    Pitch-ck gic energy expanded through the battlefield.


    The gic energy looked as though it hade from the abyss, or perhaps from the expanding, limitless universe. Starlight struck the gic energy in a sh of surprising beauty.


    The night sky morphed into a raging sea. Waves surged forward, sounding like peals of thunder, like stampeding hooves. The universe itself seemed to shake, as though the stars were shifting positions.


    The surface of the ster sea frothed with waves,yering and texturing it. Auroras hung in the air, veiling the night sky.


    From afar, ster dragons seemed to roar. The pitch-ck dragons were like the night sky made manifest. Thunder and lightning crackled in the air.


    Dragons unfurled their wings amidst a storm of lightning. The auroras stretched on for thousands of miles, so beautiful they captivated the gathered hunters.


    Zhang Lie struck. An underworld river hurtled into existence, roaring into the sea. The sword energy roiled like ck waves, like a meteor shower, causing the very stars to shake.


    The entire night sky shifted as a thousand ster dragons descended, as though a crack had broken in firmament. A flood that could destroy the world itself rained down on theva.


    The sea had morphed into a boundless battlefield. The sea breeze was as a horn to action, and the serpents, thousands of courageous soldiers heeding its call, shaking the heavens as all things hummed in resonance. Boulder after boulder exploded, even those tens of thousands of tons heavy. The ripples that emanated from the dragon''s keening easily sparked a resonant dposition.


    The ruler was unable to withstand the river''s concentrated attack. It began to crack. Chi Chi didn''t dare to fight any longer, worried that the ruler would break as a result. He fled in disgrace.


    A ster dragon chased after him as Chi Chi shouted, "How long are the two of you going to keep watching? Help me!"


    Yao Long and Jinyang Hua were watching from the sidelines.


    They weren''tpanions to begin with, after all, and were more than happy to see Chi Chi suffering.


    Yao Long mocked, "Didn''t you say to leave it to you?"


    Jinyang Hua hid a smile behind her hand. "I thought you were supposed to be impressive. To think you would end up in such dire straits."


    Yao Long and Jinyang Hua considered Zhang Lie. Chi Chi might have been a little weak, but was essentially on their level. For him to have lost that confrontation so badly... Zhang Lie was simply too strong.


    Yao Long and Jinyang Hua carefully analyzed Zhang Lie''s moves.
