King of Assassins

No matter how powerful the Dragon God's divine intuition might be, its wisdom and power inevitably limited its level.

Gao Xuan swung his sword, the Ming Che Sword Light rippling like water, dispersing the Dragon God's attack. With his left hand, Gao Xuan activated the Godslaying Sword, and the blood-red sword light flashed.

The massive Dragon God Avatar was pierced by the Godslaying Sword, its spirituality extinguished.

With another turn of the Hongyi Sword, the huge Dragon God Avatar was split in two. Even the hundred-meter-tall Dragon God statue cracked into two pieces under the Ming Che Sword Light.

At the center of the Dragon God statue, there was a fist-sized crimson flame.

As the Dragon God statue shattered, this crimson flame was revealed. It was the core of the Dragon God's divinity, essentially the essence of the Dragon God.

At this moment, the Dragon God's essence realized the danger and emitted a piercing scream without hesitation.

As a divine life form, the Dragon God had not yet managed to manifest a true divine body in the material cosmos. Without any protection, the Dragon God could only launch a divine spiritual attack.

This kind of attack targeted the spiritual realm directly, unavoidable.

In desperation, the Dragon God disregarded the Lizardman followers. The destructive spiritual storm swept in all directions, engulfing the entire Black Water City.

This level of spiritual storm was something even a Silver Sword Hero found difficult to withstand.

Even Gao Xuan was severely impacted; at the critical moment, the Six-winged Celestial Cicada in his sea of consciousness screeched, blocking the Dragon God's spiritual attack.

A millisecond gap gave Gao Xuan the opportunity to pierce the Dragon God's divine core with a flash of the Godslaying Sword.

The Godslaying Sword had a terrifying lethality against spirituality. The divine core was slashed open, shattering the Dragon God's consciousness, making it powerless against the Godslaying Sword.

A cluster of crimson flames turned into tiny sparks, merging into the Godslaying Sword.

The Godslaying Sword absorbed the Dragon God's spirituality, and the sword's flaming light intensified, the blood-red sword light surged upwards.

A few seconds later, the intense sword light released by the Godslaying Sword gradually dissipated.

The Godslaying Sword broke through its limits, directly elevating to the Golden Level.

Gao Xuan had slain millions of Lizardmen along the way, absorbing a vast amount of Source Power accumulated by the Dragon God. The Godslaying Sword was already on the verge of breaking through.

But the trace of divinity from the Crimson Eye hadn't been digested, preventing the Godslaying Sword from upgrading.

This time, the Godslaying Sword absorbed the Dragon God's divinity, and the two different divine powers erupted and clashed. The Godslaying Sword seized the opportunity to absorb both shattered divine essences fully, directly upgrading.

Gao Xuan had been working so hard all this time to upgrade the Godslaying Sword.

Now that he achieved his goal, he was in high spirits.

Gao Xuan raised the Godslaying Sword, and the blood-red sword light surged like a tide, spreading intensely along Black Water City.

In an instant, Black Water City was engulfed by the blood-red sword light.

Some elite Lizardmen in Black Water City were lucky enough to survive, but seeing the blood-red sword light rushing towards them, they were all in shock.

But the blood-red sword light covered all sides, leaving no room to escape. The Lizardmen elites could only generate Sword Qi to resist.

The blood-red sword light was as elusive as mist and as sharp as needles. Any flaw in the Lizardmen elites' Sword Qi, and the sword light would instantly find a breach to kill them.

No matter how skilled, it was impossible for them to be flawless. Soaked in the blood-red sword light, even a slight flaw would result in instant death. Even if their Sword Qi was strong enough to hold out, it wouldn't last for more than a few breaths under the wash of the blood-red sword light.

Wherever the blood-red sword light passed, the remaining elites in Black Water City fell one after another.

Gao Xuan also discovered some humans deep within Black Water City, undoubtedly the ones colluding with the Lizardmen.

Gao Xuan left no survivors, sweeping them all away with the sword light of the Godslaying Sword.

The blood-red sword light of the Godslaying Sword seeped like mercury, penetrating everywhere.

Every building and passage within Black Water City was permeated by the Godslaying Sword Light. The sword light range was Gao Xuan's Sword Domain.

If it were the Hongyi Sword, Gao Xuan couldn't achieve this.

But the Godslaying Sword, formed from a single divine light, was ethereal and spiritual. After reaching the Golden Level, the Godslaying Sword naturally developed various wondrous effects.

Of course, this move was convenient for dealing with weaklings. Against powerful enemies, the Sword Domain's lethality was not as effective.

In his previous life, Gao Xuan had never used the Godslaying Sword. After its upgrade, he needed to test the specific changes in the Godslaying Sword.

His spiritual power guided the sword light, and even with the heavy electromagnetic interference in Black Water City, the sword light felt as if he were personally there.

This kind of sword light also held significant importance in actual combat.

Gao Xuan tested the power of the Godslaying Sword and gained some new insights into how to use it.

Torrents of blood-red sword light continuously poured through every crevice and passageway, revealing Black Water City's underground environment entirely in Gao Xuan's sea of consciousness.

There was a large mineral refining plant underground in Black Water City, using nuclear power and geothermal power systems. This was the mainstream technology of the Alliance.

Gao Xuan also discovered several mineral transportation passages extending far into the underground mining area.

Most critically, there was a Negative Space entrance underground in Black Water City, where a large number of refined mineral resources were piled up at the entrance. It appeared that these resources would be sent into Negative Space.

Negative Space didn't require these resources, so it was clear that Negative Space connected to another side of Positive Space.

Through Negative Space transfer, minerals could be conveniently and quickly moved to other locations.

Thus, this underground Black Water City was actually constructed by humans. Ultimately, it was to monopolize the mineral resources, selling them through Negative Space and profiting silently.

The Lizardmen were causing trouble to isolate humans outside, allowing them to monopolize the mineral resources of Sea Dragon Star.

Of course, this involved the Dragon God and another Evil God mixing in. This allowed them to be seamless, undetected even by Hercules.

The matter wasn't complex; the complexity lay in the various operations within.

Hercules was a Sage. Over the decades, large quantities of mineral resources had been smuggled out without his detection. This highlighted the secrecy of their methods.

Gao Xuan was curious about where the Negative Space led to, but for now, the priority was resolving Talos.

At this moment, Talos was across from Black Water Lake. He was almost killed by the Dragon God Avatar, with the Nibelungen Ring barely holding on.

At the critical moment, the Dragon God Avatar suddenly disappeared.

Talos, exhausted, was too weak to escape. He could only stay put to recover.

Then, he saw Black Water City being engulfed by layers of blood-red light.

The intense crimson blood light carried an indestructible sharp Sword Intent. It was undoubtedly a Sword Light.

Talos was shocked; what was going on? He instinctively felt this had something to do with Gao Xuan.

He hastily opened the script: "Gao Xuan controls the sword, the sword light fills the city, slaying all enemies..."

"Gao Xuan rides the sword across the heavens to hunt down Talos, Talos dies."

Unknowingly, Talos's eyes were already covered in a thick blood-red color.

The large "The End" on the script became the final reflection on his dilated pupils.
