Chapter 436: Kinetic Energy Longsword
“What kind of monster is he?” Wei Xiuming murmured as he watched Lin Qiye entangled in battle with the three Forbidden Object Users.
Bang——!
A flying kick from Jialan sent the dazed Wei Xiuming flying over ten meters, crashing heavily against the wall.
“Spacing out… hmph.” Jialan looked at Wei Xiuming, who was embedded in the wall, hands on her hips with a huff.
Outside the main building, the buzzing sound of explosions echoed.
Jialan’s attention was drawn to that battlefield. Turning her head, she saw Lin Qiye, with long hair, wielding dual blades, dancing wildly under the night sky like a phantom, her gaze momentarily entranced.
His long hair… looks quite nice, huh?
Jialan thought to herself.
Smack!
While Jialan was lost in thought, Wei Xiuming swung a blade at her back, but it felt like striking a solid rock, leaving no mark whatsoever.
Wei Xiuming: …
Jialan turned around, her expression unfriendly.
…
Outside the main building.
Four figures collided and separated intermittently, the stars twinkling in the night sky, swaying precariously.
A maiden draped in a white veil reached out, and the light fabric on her arms unfurled like two swimming dragons, extending infinitely towards Lin Qiye. The latter flickered under the night sky, evading all the veils.
Lin Qiye opened his left hand, pressing towards the distant maiden, softly chanting:
“[Night Lord’s Judgment].”
The night above twisted rapidly, and in the next moment, dozens of black pillars fell from the sky, piercing through most of the white veils and nailing them directly to the steel framework outside the main building.
Lin Qiye flickered to her front, his straight blade slicing through the night, aimed directly at her neck!
Clang——!!
The man known as “Klein,” who was called the Lion, also teleported in front of her, drawing an ancient long sword to intercept Lin Qiye’s strike. The clash of blade and sword sparked blinding flames, the sound reverberating painfully in the ears.
Just as Lin Qiye was about to strike again, a terrifying kinetic energy erupted from that long sword, as if a high-speed train had collided head-on with Lin Qiye’s blade.
His right-hand sword was knocked from his grip!
Lin Qiye’s body was violently pushed back, but after a series of flickers, he quickly returned to his original position.
Furrowing his brows, he grasped at the void, summoning the straight sword back to his hand. He gazed at the ancient long sword in the Lion’s hand, murmuring, “A sword that can manipulate kinetic energy?”
The Lion held the sword, and with a flick among the shards of glass scattered on the ground, the shards were ejected like an electromagnetic cannon, the deafening sound cutting through the sky, reaching Lin Qiye in an instant.
As darkness spread in Lin Qiye’s eyes, he reached out and gently pressed in the void.
All the glass shards were eroded by the deepest darkness, hovering in front of him before helplessly falling beneath the clouds.
Now, he finally understood the abilities of the three Forbidden Object Users before him: the infinitely extendable and indestructible white veil, the ram’s horn that could ignore space and armor to inflict damage, and the long sword that could manipulate kinetic energy…
Knowing their abilities made the next steps easier.
Puff!
A soft sound came from within the building as the White Ram clapped his ram’s horn, and another red light pierced through space, landing on Lin Qiye, but it only struck an afterimage.
Just as the White Ram frowned and locked onto Lin Qiye’s figure again, preparing to strike with the ram’s horn, a figure appeared behind him like a ghost. The White Ram’s pupils constricted, and in the next moment, a hand pierced through his body from behind, bursting out of his chest!
The blood-soaked hand crushed the heart it held, slowly withdrawing from his back.
The expressionless Ninth Seat shook his hand and turned to look at the maiden pinned to the building by Lin Qiye, a cold smile appearing at the corner of his mouth.
“Hmm?” In mid-air, Lin Qiye, who was rapidly gathering the surrounding darkness, noticed the White Ram’s sudden death, his eyes filled with confusion as he focused on the unfamiliar figure, his brows slightly furrowing.
Who is he?
Why is he helping me?
Just as Lin Qiye was puzzled, a golden light shot out from the imitation [Yaoguang] on the Lion’s wrist, transforming into a small flying sword, heading straight for Lin Qiye in the sky.
Lin Qiye withdrew his gaze, concentrating on the enemy before him. Unlike his peak “Wuliang,” the Lion wielding that ancient long sword was a true “Klein” realm expert. Although he now bore the soul of the Night Goddess, the gap between a quasi-“Klein” and a “Klein” was not easily crossed.
Knowing that the opponent could manipulate kinetic energy, Lin Qiye chose not to engage in a blade-to-blade fight. From the earlier situation, that sword could only manipulate the kinetic energy of objects it directly contacted; it had done so when it deflected his straight sword and flicked the glass shards.
Lin Qiye reached out towards the rapidly approaching figure, pressing in the void, and points of starry shadows lit up behind him.
“[Falling Stars].”
Those stars fell from the night sky, igniting brilliant flames as they streaked through the atmosphere, trailing long, shining tails, resembling a meteor shower descending from the heavens!
The Lion’s eyes narrowed slightly, his speed showing no signs of slowing as he charged towards the dazzling falling stars.
His figure collided directly with the first starry shadow. The moment the long sword in his hand touched its surface, the star seemed to lose its falling energy, pausing in mid-air, its flames extinguishing instantly, and the shadow gradually faded away.
He continued towards the next star.
One sword after another, every star he struck with his long sword floated lightly in the air, losing all kinetic energy.
Lin Qiye’s brows furrowed slightly.
It seemed that the sword could not only manipulate the kinetic energy of solid objects but could even affect the shadows of stars… This meant there were even fewer ways to restrain him.
…
As the entire 166th floor descended into chaos, no one noticed that the numbers in the elevator shaft, which had paused at a certain floor, suddenly began to jump.
100th floor, 110th floor, 120th floor… 160th floor, 166th floor!
Ding——!
The crisp sound of the elevator arriving echoed in the noisy venue, causing the Forbidden Object Users battling the giant serpents to momentarily freeze.
At this moment, how could there still be an elevator coming up?
The entrance to the elevator should have been sealed off…
Standing on the high platform observing the battlefield, Bai Lixin frowned in confusion and turned to look.
The elevator doors slowly opened, the lights inside flickering, and through the dim light, a blood-soaked figure could be seen standing in the center of the elevator.
Under the pale light, a pig mask with a silly smile slowly lifted…
