Chapter 1051

: Vicious Revenge
The one-hundredth sword strike didn’t slash down as anticipated.
The fiendcelestial’s celestial swords had suddenly quit working.
After all, even supreme beings would be exhausted after launching such powerful attacks one hundred times in succession. Besides, this black mist person was most likely formed from the mere remnant energy of the Ancient Heavenly Fiendcelestial.
An Lin’s eyes lit up with fervor. After waiting for such a long time, their chance had finally come!

Hold this brick for me!

An Lin tossed his black brick toward Lan Xiaoni and charged toward the Ancient Heavenly Fiendcelestial.
The Ancient Heavenly Fiendcelestial puffed its chest out and emitted a soaring aura.
Its voice boomed like thunder as it asked,
Do you prefer life, or do you prefer death?

The fiendcelestial’s intimidating might caused An Lin to falter momentarily. However, he quickly regained his senses and sneered,
I prefer death! Come on, come cut me!

The Ancient Heavenly Fiendcelestial made a tearing motion with its hands, and a spatial passageway was ripped into the void.
Muahaha… I love going against my enemies’ wishes! Look here, this is a spatial passageway that leads toward Xi Haizi. I shall bestow life upon you!

It was blatantly evident that the fiendcelestial was releasing them.
An Lin and Lan Xiaoni were both stunned. What was with this turn of events?
After a moment, An Lin sneered,
Then I prefer life!

A gratified smile stretched across the Ancient Heavenly Fiendcelestial’s face.
You’re a very worthy opponent. I shall make an exception for you and satisfy your wish. I shall grant you life! Both of you may leave now!

After saying this, it gestured for them to leave.
An Lin:
…

Lan Xiaoni:
…

Such a gutless fiendcelestial!

How could An Lin leave just like this? How could he silently cop the beating that they had just received?

But… I want to hack you to death right now. Tell me, what should I do?

Ancient Heavenly Fiendcelestial:
…

I was merely sparring with you guys before…


Heh, you made me ‘eat’ ninety-nine of your sword strikes. It’s time for you to taste my sword techniques now!

An Lin let out a roar and activated his Origin Energy of the Netherworld. His strength started increasing rapidly, and the joyous ring of the Evil-Slaying Sword echoed throughout the heavens. Then, his sword sliced down toward the Ancient Heavenly Fiendcelestial’s face!
The entire sky and cloud layers suddenly dimmed in this instant.
The only salient image was the overwhelming black sword projection.
The sword projection tore through the void in a deadly arc.
In this moment of great danger, the Ancient Heavenly Fiendcelestial managed to parry with its two celestial swords.
Boom!
The unparalleled might of the sword projection smashed into the black and white celestial swords, and the tremendous might that it contained sent the Ancient Heavenly Fiendcelestial flying back thousands of meters!

Oh? What a surprise! You were actually able to withstand my full-power strike!
An Lin trod through the void toward the fiendcelestial. A cruel smile suddenly stretched across his face.
However, this is definitely your limit, am I correct? Eat my attack again!

After saying this, An Lin launched another sword strike at the Ancient Heavenly Fiendcelestial!
Lan Xiaoni cheered loudly upon hearing these familiar utterances.
Good going, Big Boss An Lin! Kill that little fcker!

It felt like An Lin was taking revenge for her by bullying the Ancient Heavenly Fiendcelestial.
The sweet feeling of taking revenge caused a wave of happiness to wash over her body.
The pitch-black sword projection pierced through heaven and earth, and it looked as though it could even swallow the radiance of the setting sun. At this moment, it appeared as if An Lin were the true fiendcelestial. The Ancient Heavenly Fiendcelestial howled in agony as it was pummeled by An Lin.
The Ancient Heavenly Fiendcelestial tried to counterattack, yet its black and white celestial swords would tremble slightly every time it tried to activate them. It looked as if they were resisting with all their might.
Uh-huh, maybe they didn’t want to move because they felt like vomiting after striking that black brick so many times. Attack? No way!
It seemed like the Ancient Heavenly Fiendcelestial’s only attack was reliant on those two celestial swords. Otherwise, his attacks just then wouldn’t have been so dull and monotonous.
Now that its celestial swords were on strike, it could only take a pounding…
The Ancient Heavenly Fiendcelestial’s defense was breached by An Lin’s eighteenth sword strike. Black-colored blood spurted from the gash that was ripped into its chest.

Ahhhh… Die!
The Ancient Heavenly Fiendcelestial was enraged by the fact that it had been wounded. It raised its celestial swords and slashed toward An Lin viciously!
Puff… Puff…
Two dull explosions rang out.
The fiendcelestial’s swords didn’t release any technique or sword projection.
The Ancient Heavenly Fiendcelestial was momentarily dazed. Meanwhile, An Lin’s sword projection struck its body once more, tearing another gaping wound into its body.
An Lin finally came to a realization. It was the two celestial swords that were the remnants of the Ancient Heavenly Fiendcelestial. This black mist person was merely here to fck around.
His sword intent hacked at the Ancient Heavenly Fiendcelestial relentlessly, with every strike aimed at a weak point.
The Ancient Heavenly Fiendcelestial was feeling extremely distressed. It couldn’t fight back at all!

You can’t kill me! I’m the Ancient Heavenly Fiendcelestial! If you kill me, then tens upon thousands of fiendish monsters will pursue you relentlessly! You’ll never be able to live in peace!
the Ancient Heavenly Fiendcelestial hissed a threat.
An Lin chuckled indifferently.
The Qing Dynasty has already fallen[1].

Ancient Heavenly Fiendcelestial:
Say what?

Whoosh!
While it was still feeling confused, a black shadow instantly flashed through the air and tore its body into two.
There was a white glow in An Lin’s eyes, and his body was shrouded within streams of wind and sword intent.
You’ve already been dead for heaven knows how many years. Dead people should rest peacefully and refrain from spouting nonsense.

Whoosh…
Sword projections sliced through the air, forming a white, web-like structure in the void. It instantly cut the Ancient Heavenly Fiendcelestial into thousands of pieces.
An Lin didn’t show any sign of wanting to stop. Six divine flames appeared in his left hand, and the Holy Vermilion Flame appeared in his right. He launched the flames toward the Ancient Heavenly Fiendcelestial’s body pieces, and the devastating heat instantly melted the pieces of flesh into wisps of grey smoke.
This time, there was no way that the fiendcelestial would be able to revive, even if it could be reborn from a single drop of blood!
In terms of landing killing blows, An Lin was a professional!

Big Boss An Lin is so awesome! Even the domineering fiendcelestial that once ruled over the West Sea was no match for you!
Lan Xiaoni flew over joyously with the black brick. There was a look of reverence on her face.

Heh, it was merely a trivial matter.
An Lin smiled calmly.
No need to make such a fuss.

He casually picked up the Ancient Heavenly Fiendcelestial’s two celestial swords and then refined them.
After refining them, something astonishing occurred.
The two celestial swords transformed into a jade pendant!
The jade pendant was smooth and round, and its surface was a mixture of black and white. One side of the pendant was white and the other side was black.
An Lin curiously activated his Divine Inspection Technique.
[Jade Pendant of Heaven and Earth: White represents heaven; black represents earth; this pendant is boundlessly profound and exceptionally exquisite. One can activate the Myriad Change Technique and instill their dao into this pendant.]
An Lin’s face lit up in delight. He didn’t expect this pendant to also be a divine-rank material.
He had initially thought that those two swords were weapons. Thinking back now, it was most probable that the Ancient Heavenly Fiendcelestial had used the power of the Jade Pendant of Heaven and Earth to transform it into the black and white celestial swords.
Anyhow, a divine-rank material was even better.
This way, he was one step closer to being able to refine a divine weapon!
An Lin happily put the jade pendant away.
A rush of dizziness suddenly overcame him.
An Lin and Lan Xiaoni arrived back at that familiar place once again.
An Lin looked up and was instantly given a fright.
He found that the statue of Xi Haizi—which had been standing upright the entire time—was sitting down on the ground! Moreover, it was gazing at him with a smile on its face!
