Chapter 1841 Endless Severing
1841 Endless Severing
The Dragon Emperor's eyes went wide in shock. He could not believe that he was seeing Alex once again. How was that possible? Had he not just destroyed his body himself?
How was he alive like this?
"WHY WON'T YOU DIE?!" the Dragon Emperor shouted, his face burning with fury as he took the crackling spear and used the power he had stored in it toward Alex.
He shot out the strongest attack he could muster right now, one he was going to use to kill Hannah, which he was sure was more than enough for Alex as well.
Alex flew toward him even as the lightning bolt moved toward him.
And then the two of them clashed.
A wild grin appeared on the Dragon Emperor's face for a moment before it changed, turning to one that just had a horrifying realization.
When the lightning bolt hit Alex, Alex hadn't protected himself. The Dragon Emperor was certain he had killed him for now, certain that Alex could not survive such a blast.
However, what he saw instead was that when the lightning bolt did strike Alex, Alex disappeared, leaving behind just a blank puppet that took the strike.
The Dragon Emperor had been duped. Just like earlier today when he was called to the secret realm, this Alex had been nothing more than an illusion.
A distraction.
As for the real Alex, the Dragon Emperor sensed him teleport right behind him.
The Dragon Emperor didn't sense Alex. Alex was still hidden from his senses. What he did sense was a frightening aura that he carried with him now.
That, and the small slices that had started appearing around his body for some reason that he found difficult to protect himself against.
The Dragon Emperor sensed it but didn't realize what it was.
Had he had the time to check it properly, he would've recognized this as the next stage of Sword Qi.
At this stage, the Sword Qi formed not just around the person who used it, but also further away from him, covering a large enough area.
And this tiny bit of Immortal Qi had been the one thing that he had been preparing since the very beginning of this fight.
And now, he finally had the opportunity to use it, alongside the strongest attack he could use it right now.
His technique concentrated on Midnight, becoming a powerful force that seemed unstoppable, a power that could cut through all things, no matter what they were.
That was what he had wanted this technique to be when he first created it. That was what he had wanted this technique to do.
This technique which had been nameless for a long time, now had a name for it that Alex believed to accurately describe what it was.
Alex swung Midnight and released the technique.
Endless Severing Strike
The attack seemed to suddenly disappear, becoming nothing. But the aura it carried was still there, that frightening aura.
The Dragon Emperor put his Noble Dragon Spear to protect himself but that could not do anything against this attack.
It broke in half immediately upon impact, not even reducing the attack by any measure.
The sword strike landed on the Dragon Emperor, and even his body failed to do anything. The sword sliced right through him, cutting him all the way from his head down through his groin.
The sword passed past him, cutting through space itself as it moved far away, cutting endlessly as nothing could stand in its way.
It disappeared into the ground, sinking deep within it as it kept on cutting. It would only stop after it had cut through hundreds of kilometers deep underground.
The Dragon Emperor was still conscious, his body still not realizing what had happened. He looked at the broken spear and wondered why he wasn't dead.
He then looked at Alex and suddenly his vision split into two as one side of his body started sliding down the other side.
The Dragon Emperor wanted to speak, to say anything, but he couldn't do so. It only registered to his body a second later that he had even been cut at all.
As the two halves of the Dragon Emperor slid down on either side, the soul that had merged with his body was cut into two halves as well.
As such, the man who had lived for ten thousand years, the strongest human in the world, the first human to become an Immortal in over ten thousand years, the Dragon Emperor, Long Tiankong, died.
