Chapter 5738: Lightblade

Demon took a step back; her expression changed upon seeing the sacred armor of light.

“Fellow Daoist, your martial arts are truly extraordinary, one punch creating myriad beasts. This is the dao of the divine beasts.” Light-dragon expressed his admiration.

However, he shook his head and said: “But if this is all you have, Fellow Daoist, you cannot break my armor and are at a disadvantage.” nove(l)bi(n.)com

“A formidable armor set indeed.” Demon admitted.

“Yes, it was refined from a light star found in the farthest reach in Celestial Court by the Ancestors themselves. I wonder how many weapons can actually break it.” Light-dragon revealed the origin of the armor.

Only a few beings were called “Ancestors” in Celestial Court. They crafted this armor with the standards of a paragon artifact. This was a testament to Light-dragon’s status in Celestial Court.

The late Supreme had an actual paragon artifact - True Bones. Being sent down to the upper continents didn’t accurately reflect his noble status as a direct disciple of Celestial Court but rather, the importance of the mission.

Of course, this didn’t mean Light-dragon was valued less highly compared to Supreme.

“Formidable, not unbreakable.” Demon added and slowly drew out a spear.

It had a green glow with all-piercing rays. Her entire being suddenly changed upon wielding this weapon.

Her nature aura was gentle but now, it became chilling and murderous after the fusion. Putting its imposing presence aside, the laws and orders of the world somehow changed afterward. It could pierce through the world and replace it with an entirely new one.

He rarely needed it to defeat powerful foes, especially not after possessing the light armor. Nonetheless, he knew that he had to be prudent against this spear.

Other weapons in his arsenal were useless, only his Lightblade stood a chance.

“Fellow Daoist, please give me pointers.” He gestured with his blade.

He didn’t enter a defensive stance or activate barriers, believing that offense was the best defense.

“Let’s do this.” Demon’s eyes lit up and her chilling aura intensified with rays capable of piercing the heart.

“Perpetual Night!” She performed a spear thrust and summoned a domain of darkness. One couldn’t see their hand in front of them.

“Illumination!” Light-dragon and the dragon behind him cautiously channeled more power.

“Rumble!” Loud detonations occurred as his light tried to overwhelm the dark domain, inch by inch.

He didn’t have time to spread his light before having to deal with an incoming thrust.

All he saw was a gleam amidst the night and he became paralyzed, unable to move for a split second. Dodging was not an option so he swung his blade instead, cutting through the night domain and allowing light to penetrate.

As long as there was a single strand left, the light was eternal and could always spread even in this darkest domain.
