Chapter 1028 - The True Final Move
Translated by: Hypersheep325

When the spear point probed out of the void, Chen Changsheng had blocked it with the Stupid Sword.
From the moment he decided to kill the Demon Lord, entered the darkness, and finally when he faced off against the Angel of Sacred Light, he was using the Intellectual Sword.
So for his final move, he naturally used the Blazing Sword.
These were the three swords that Su Li had passed to him in the wilderness.
When it saw that sword glow, the Angel appeared slightly surprised and then raised its left hand.
It seemed to not think that Chen Changsheng's speed would suddenly become so fast, that his true essence would become so powerful.
With a light clap, the Angel used its fingers to snatch Chen Changsheng's sword. Unable to move, it was like a caught mosquito.
The Stainless Sword had an unequaled edge, but when tightly held, it could not cut through the Angel's fingers.
This should have been Chen Changsheng's strongest move, but it was of no threat to the Angel of Sacred Light.
Logically speaking, the Angel should have adopted a crushing demeanor and begun to attack Chen Changsheng.
But for some reason, a hint of fear appeared in the depths of its eyes.
Su Li was probably in the Sacred Light Continent right now, so perhaps it had seen this move before? Or had it sensed something else?
Chen Changsheng did not notice the change in the Angel's emotions. He continued to burn his true essence and push forward.
The Stainless Sword did not advance a single hair.
The fear in the Angel's eyes became anger and its two fingers turned.
The Stainless Sword bent like a rainbow, but it did not snap.
A titanic energy traveled through the sword to Chen Changsheng's hands.
With a few light snaps, his wrist bones were covered in cracks, liable to break at any moment.
Chen Changsheng did not care. The three swords that Su Li had taught were not his true killing move.
These three swords were to help him arrive in front of the Angel.
On the hilt, the five stone pearls, the Heavenly Tome Monoliths, began to revolve, traveling up the sword to the Angel.
The Angel immediately felt that something was wrong.
The laws of the world in the space between it and Chen Changsheng were changing.
What object could change the laws of the world in such a small area?
The Angel's face suddenly went extremely pale, almost transparent. It was like it was made of glass.
Innumerable rays of light shot out of its body in every direction!
An ordinary cultivator of the continent would instantly be burned to death if they touched these light rays of limitless energy.
Chen Changsheng would not. His body was chock-full of the same light, and there was even more, and it was even purer.
The Angel immediately loosened its fingers and retreated into the darkness.
There was a clang as the Stainless Sword snapped back, its edge slicing through space but failing to touch the Angel's body.
The string of stone pearls shot out from the sword, yet they also failed to hit the Angel.
Several streams of light shone in Chen Changsheng's eyes, the marks left by the Angel as it flapped its wings.
With the Angel's speed, as long as it retreated, Chen Changsheng would find it hard to catch up, much less engage in close combat.
He could only watch that spear of light from the distance, leading him to fall into a truly hopeless situation.
Chen Changsheng did not panic, nor did he despair.
Because the Heavenly Tome Monoliths were not his true final move.
With a clack, the Stainless Sword and the Vault Sheath were separated.
Chen Changsheng gripped the top of the sheath and waved it at the darkness.
This action was similar to when Luoluo used the Falling Rain Whip, and it was also like someone sprinkling water.
Countless sword glows spat out of the sheath, a river of stars from which the faint cry of a dragon could be heard.
The Angel's wings incessantly flapped.
The darkness resounded with countless collisions.
It was sword against wing of light, but the sound was the clear and bright clash of metal on stone.
Sparks sputtered in the dark sky, a dazzling display of fireworks even more beautiful than the one previous.
The slashes of countless swords were not able to leave a single mark on those wings of light, so they were naturally unable to wound the Angel's divine body.
The sword glows scattered like fireflies, unable to stop the Angel from leaving the bounds of the Heavenly Tome Monoliths' attack.
Even at this moment, Chen Changsheng was still very calm.
The Heavenly Tome Monoliths were not his final move, and neither was that previous rain of swords.
His final move was not in his sheath, nor was it in his hands.
That move was elsewhere.
It was not his sword.
It was her sword.
Xu Yourong returned from the darkness.
Great light returned.
The temple sword flew through the air, slashing at the Angel.
Chen Changsheng reached out his right hand, donning the string of pearls and snatching the hilt of his sword once more.
He once more used the Blazing Sword and slashed at the Angel.
Both his sword and Xu Yourong's sword exploded with infinite light and heat.
Two sword glows met in the darkness and became one, becoming so bright that it seemed like the sea of stars had descended upon the world of mortals.
Two sword intents melded, becoming monstrously powerful, reaching a state of utmost divinity and dignity.
Deep within the divinity and dignity was a somber killing intent.
This somber killing intent seemed to appear from nothing and instantly became absolutely majestic.
From the earth of yellow sand to the heavens divided by light and darkness, the world instantly turned torrid and dry.
Before these two sword glows, it seemed like the entire world would be set ablaze!
The Angel's gaze suddenly turned very profound.
It ceased to retreat.
It raised the spear of light.
It had sensed very clearly that these two sword glows that could incinerate the world could not be avoided with speed, only resisted with strength.
When Chen Changsheng's and Xu Yourong's sword glows met, the Demon Lord sensed something and a flabbergasted expression appeared on his face.
He instantly summoned all his demon artifacts and laid down layer after layer of arrays around him.
……
A power difficult to imagine appeared in the world.
Countless terrifying waves of Qi spread in every direction.
As winds shrieked, sand filled the sky.
The blind zither player was sent flying into the darkness.
The two blazing sword glows and their aura of destruction burned away at the darkness until it was extremely thin, and it seemed like it would rupture at any moment.
This courtyard was located close to the Xiang clan estate, by a stream, and beyond its walls on a certain side was a cliff.
At this moment, several hundred extremely thin pillars of stone appeared on this cliff. They looked like stone swords, exuding an intimidating aura.
Nobody noticed when these stone pillars had appeared or how they had appeared. It was a mystical sight.
The sands settled and the winds died. In the extremely thin darkness, sunlight once more illuminated the courtyard, revealing what was happening within.
Xu Yourong's face was as beautiful as a painting, her expression calm and focused. She had no visible injuries.
But the burning patches of fire behind her in the sands were probably blazing drops of Phoenix blood.
Chen Changsheng's face was very pale.
His sword-holding hand was trembling, blood seeping from it.
He had probably been heavily wounded.
Across from them.
The Angel stood in the sand, its right hand gripping the spear of light, its wings floating behind, its expression indifferent.
A few bloodstains could be seen on the sand, and also one broken white feather.
It was clear that it had also been wounded, and it had not been light.
Then this was enough.
……
The Angel of Sacred Light had been injured?
No matter how talented Chen Changsheng and Xu Yourong were, they had still not managed to cross that threshold.
Until Wang Po had slashed out with his blade on the Luo River, he had been unable to harm Tie Shu.
So how had these two managed to accomplish such a feat?
As he observed this sight, the Demon Lord wondered in shock, was this two swords working in harmony?
