Rebirth of the Peak Young Master

With almost no effort, Yang Tian explained to the Demon King and then shouted loudly, "Criticism!"

Clang! The sound of swords immediately echoed. One of the four divine swords behind Yang Tian came into view. Suddenly, an overwhelming fighting spirit erupted, and two bold calligraphy characters gradually appeared on the sword. It was—Criticism!

"This…"

The Demon King saw the vivid and striking characters and felt his heart skip a beat.

Although he didn't want to admit it, deep down, he couldn't shake the ominous sense that Yang Tian's actions, even his division of the swords, were connected to a larger, profound purpose.

Yet, the Demon King roared furiously, "Impossible! Impossible for a single sword to break the chains! How could an ant like you possess the strongest ancient world-breaking chain in existence?!"

"Absolutely!"

Facing the furious chase of the Demon King, Yang Tian responded firmly without hesitation, once again speaking aloud.

Clang! Another box of divine swords rang out with resonance, and two more characters emerged on the blade.

"Enter!"

"Stepping Point!"

Clang! Clang!

Yang Tian spoke again, and the final two boxes of divine swords also reverberated with sword energy, simultaneously revealing the names 'Trap Point' and 'Stepping Point.'

Now, the names of all four swords had appeared. In an instant, their colors shifted dramatically, and the four divine swords transformed into brilliant radiance that converged toward Yang Tian's magical sword.

In a mere moment, the magical sword transformed into a colossal blade, spanning the horizon and beyond.

The giant blade, pulsing with boundless martial energy, pierced through space, freezing even the most restless of combatants. The Demon King finally faltered!

At this very moment—even if he refused to believe it—there was no denying the truth: Yang Tian's unparalleled prestige was manifest in this divine act of sword division.

"It's… it really separated the swords! How could this be!"

The Monster Emperor roared endlessly, shaken to the core.

But amidst his howls of disbelief, only one thought remained!

Run!

Escape as far as possible!

Knowing Yang Tian had mastered the power to divide swords, the Demon King lost all courage to face him in battle!

In the demonic realm, the act of dividing swords was revered as godlike power!

Anyone who wielded such immense might, even if Yang Tian were an ant to the mighty demons of yore, would render them powerless in resistance!

Thus, the monster's wings flapped frantically, transforming into streaks of light as he fled. Only the overwhelming presence of Yang Tian's sword emboldened him to retreat as far as possible.

The Demon King bolting away left those atop the wooden wall, including Su Yueyue, in utter disbelief!

Due to the deafening resonance of the divine sword's power, they couldn't even hear the words exchanged between Yang Tian and the Demon King.

Boom!

With the sword's swing, even the plains trembled chaotically.

Su Yue and the others paled in terror.

They could tell that this massive blade wasn't physical, but a manifestation of untamed Sword Qi. Yet at this moment, it seemed like a Divine Sword descending from heaven, reducing the world to rubble.

When the blade slowly vanished, the Demon King who had once held the battlefield in turmoil now lay deep beneath the plains, as if he had plummeted directly from the heavens.

"Dead?"

As the dispersing blade descended swiftly toward the edge of the wooden wall, Su Yue gazed into the distance.

With the disappearance of the massive blade, Yang Tian's figure emerged, his flickering attire contrasting sharply against the grotesque remnants of the Demon King now crumbling into black dust.

Yet now, the once-feared Demon King was no longer a reigning terror!

For at this very moment, the Monster Emperor's fearsome presence was gone; his monstrous form reduced to fragmented ruins—a heap of black debris that seemed blown apart by countless raging explosives.

Evidently, even aided by demonic power, the Demon King stood no chance against the divine sword. His demise was inevitable!

With each onlooker witnessing the final blow, a voice burst forth with excitement: "Dead! Truly dead! Hahaha! The monster has been destroyed, the Monster King is dead! Long live Yang Tian!"

The crowd erupted with exhilaration upon hearing the cry.

Although no lives were lost in this monstrous tide today, the terrifying ordeal was something they could never forget—it was suffocating, like the shadow of doom always looming and erasing hope.

Men fell into restless slumber, prepared to embrace death should the battle turn sour.

It could easily be said that without Yang Tian's intervention and strategic mastery of sword division, no one would have survived this catastrophe. Everyone was merely one thread away from vanishing.

Truly, the gap between life and death often felt as thin as a veil!

But what was their salvation? For whom did they struggle to stay alive?

Undoubtedly, Yang Tian had descended like a radiant star to save them.

Thus, when the cheer erupted, it quickly spread. Everyone cried fervently, "Long live Yang Tian! Long live Yang Tian!"

Li Minghao stood beside Su Yue's followers. Though their hearts surged with exhilaration, they chose not to chant along but instead turned toward Su Yue.

Seeing this, Su Yueyue smiled tenderly, saying, "What's wrong, dear husband? If you wish to cry, then cry!"

Speaking so, Su Yue's cheerful laughter inspired her companions. "Long live Yang Tian!" she exclaimed with joy.

Li Minghao observed this scene, his hesitation vanishing. Nodding firmly, he drew a deep breath and shouted with unwavering devotion, "Long live Yang Tian!"

At that moment, Yang Tian slowly began wielding the four divine swords to craft the divided blade.

After his triumphant battle, when the four divine swords flew back into Yang Tian's grip, they each bore visible cracks, fragile enough to break apart at any moment.

Watching the Bone Swords, Yang Tian couldn't help but feel unease.

Honestly, though this battle seemed like a complete annihilation of the Demon King and the beast tide by Yang Tian, it was alarmingly precarious!

If not for the mastery of sword division, the Demon King's assault could have empowered monsters with courage enough to overwhelm them rapidly.

Even if the Monster King had held out longer, waiting for the Bone Swords to crumble, the tables would've turned dramatically.

But ultimately, fortune had favored him, and the final victory belonged to Yang Tian!

Hearing the distant cheers from atop the wooden wall, Yang Tian smiled warmly and raised his hand in a subtle motion.

In that instant, an inexplicable phenomenon occurred!

Every cheering villager was enveloped in a faint glow that began converging toward Yang Tian.

As the heavenly radiance merged with Yang Tian, his aura steadily surged in power.

It all seemed eerily reminiscent of the pressure once exerted by the Demon King upon the masses.

Yet amidst this rising power, Yang Tian simply smiled contentedly.

At long last, he understood the secret behind the Demon King's supernatural magic—the secret was Divine Dao!

That's right!

Before establishing his mastery of Divine Dao, the Demon King roamed the Dead Zone. Though his revised methods bridged the divide between humans and demons, they were ultimately unrelated to the Divine Dao.

It seemed clear that the Demon King had exploited absolute obedience from his minions to channel Divine Dao's strength, manifesting supernatural abilities as a result!

However, Yang Tian's understanding of Divine Dao was miles ahead of the Demon King. Hence, no matter how fragmented his mastery, Yang Tian skillfully combined Divine Dao's essence with the collective vitality of his devoted followers.

As Yang Tian absorbed the Divine Dao's power, his smile grew wider.

Regardless of the challenges ahead.

Could they escape?

Upon hearing Yang Tian's words, the villagers looked around in bewilderment.

Escape?

Escape to where?

Did Yang Tian intend to leave the village?

But venturing beyond the village meant encountering monsters lurking everywhere!

Among them, individuals like Li Minghao possessed unparalleled skill in combat. But for others like Su Yueyue or Su Qin, who lacked any experience in battle, such notions were unfathomable.
