A Blind Swordsman's Sword Coffin-Chapter 590 - Nine Heavens’ Wrath

Roar!

A deep dragon’s roar echoed across the sky as Nine Heavens’ aura surged wildly. Before, standing next to the Crimson Lightning Suanni, Nine Heavens had looked no bigger than a small snake. But now Nine Heavens twisted and thrashed, shedding layers of scales. Its body stretched, shattering its former armor. Its horns grew incredibly long, crackling with lightning incessantly.

Two long whiskers lashed through the air like whips, while the surrounding lightning power surged with devastating, world-ending force.

Seeing an opening, the Crimson Lightning Suanni tried to launch a sneak attack, but its massive body had barely moved before a figure cut it off. A terrifying sword light erupted. Where the ice-blue light streaked, space itself froze.

The storm clouds above churned violently, like boiling water.

Rumble! Boom!

The white lion dodged while unleashing countless indiscriminate lightning strikes across a thousand-zhang radius.

Meng Wanshu’s pupils shrank. Amidst the sea of lightning, a crimson hue glimmered subtly. The Suanni had tapped into its true power. Each bolt carried enough force to devastate the land.

Meng Wanshu tapped the void beneath her feet, forming a defensive array. Crouching low, she gripped her sword tightly. The spirit of her spirit treasure longsword sensed her intent and trembled, releasing a piercing sword cry.

Clang!

Brilliant ice-blue light burst from the blade, resonating through the sword ruins.

Her eyes locked on the incoming lightning as she murmured, “Frost Burial!”

Boom!

She twisted violently and retreated, her feet slicing two black fissures in the void. Every muscle tensed as she stepped forward, shattering the void beneath her. Boundless frost energy froze the surrounding ten-thousand-zhang radius.

With her right hand, she slashed out countless afterimages. Thousands of frost sword shadows swept through the air, rising to meet the lightning bolts above. Her eyes glimmered with icy blue light. The shattered frost fragments served as her eyes, letting her track the trajectory of every single strike. Her eyelashes trembled as she slowly closed her eyes.

Each sword strike landed precisely on the lightning. Her sword light shattered every bolt on contact, crystallizing them into ice before they could scatter.

From a distance, the sight would have been breathtaking—thousands of lightning bolts descending in all directions, and streams of frost flowers radiating outward from her lone silhouette.

Shhkk!

Several sword lights broke through the lightning’s blockade and streaked past. The terrifying sword light nearly severed the Suanni’s shoulder, the wounds deep enough to expose bone.

The enraged Suanni moved with blinding speed, its body shrouded in lightning as it charged straight at Meng Wanshu, ignoring the sword strikes entirely.

The attack came so fast that she barely had time to react. Her earrings flashed with dazzling light, and a barrier formed—only for the Suanni to smash straight through it, the residual force crashing into her.

Pff!

Meng Wanshu was blasted backward, spitting blood as she streaked thousands of zhang across the land.

Nine Heavens stood upright, its length now over seventy zhang, incredibly thick and powerful. Its scales gleamed, far tougher than before.

Every breakthrough awakened its bloodline further.

The Crimson Lightning Suanni felt an unprecedented bloodline suppression. Even its internal demonic power faltered, and its lightning weakened significantly.

Nine Heavens now rivaled the Suanni in size, if not surpassed it, radiating an oppressive aura. Nine Heavens looked down at the tumbling Meng Wanshu, full of icy killing intent. A lowly creature of inferior blood had dared to provoke it, and worse, had harmed someone it cared about.

Roar!

Nine Heavens dove at the Suanni. Mountains shattered and rivers split in Nine Heavens’ wake as it seized the Suanni and hurled it through the air. The Suanni sailed over a thousand zhang, smashing through a mountain before tumbling to a stop.

The Suanni shook its massive head, the scent of its own blood fueling its rage. As a tier-seven demonic beast, it was a king among its kind. Even a true dragon should have been insignificant in its presence.

“Today, I will devour you all!”

Roar!

Its roar split the earth, forming a massive pit as a bolt of lightning streaked across the night sky toward Nine Heavens.

The two noble-blooded demonic beasts clashed.

Meanwhile, Meng Wanshu’s body carved a long trench across the ground, coming to stop in a hundred-zhang-deep crater atop a mountain.

She coughed, spitting blood laced with torn flesh. Her face was pale, her left shoulder had shattered, and her organs had been displaced. Half her chest had collapsed. Blood blurred her vision as she staggered, barely making out two enormous figures clashing in the distance.

“Huff... Ha... I can’t... stop...”

Even in such a state, she was still thinking of how to kill the Suanni. If she failed and the beast escaped, it would be nearly impossible to find it again.

Li Guanqi’s breakthrough was imminent. She had to kill the Suanni quickly and get back.

Shhhkk!

A familiar aura appeared beside her. The weak and battered Peng Luo poked his head out from a spatial rift, handing Meng Wanshu a small bottle of milky-white elixir.

“Mistress, drink. This is all the help I can offer...”

Meng Wanshu did not refuse. She tilted her head and drank, her injuries healing rapidly. She retrieved several purple crystal jade boxes from her storage ring and swallowed the pills inside. Meng Wanshu began to recover rapidly. Eyes locked on the distance, she gripped her sword and surged into the air.

The earth trembled. The Suanni shoved Nine Heavens back, and in return, Nine Heavens swept its tail with all its might.

Thud!

Space collapsed. The Suanni was flung sideways, its right shoulder shredded and bloody. Yet it reacted swiftly, swiping its claws at Nine Heavens’ tail. Sparks flew from the tail. Despite Nine Heavens’ breakthrough, the attack still tore through its defenses, though the wound was less severe than before.

Enraged, Nine Heavens lunged, wrapping its tail around the Suanni and slamming it into the ground.

Bang! Boom!

The earth trembled, forming a deep pit.

Blood gushed from the Suanni’s mouth as it stomped hard on Nine Heavens, leaving two deep claw marks across its abdomen. The Suanni leaped up and struck again, flailing its lightning claws wildly.

Nine Heavens’ chest scales flew apart, its flesh torn and bloody.
