Boom!
The moment the Divine Son finished speaking, Li Xuan's face changed dramatically. At this instant, Li Xuan clearly felt his lifespan rapidly dwindling. In mere moments, Li Xuan noticed that five hundred years had been stripped away.
"One Sword Breaks Ten Thousand Laws!"
Li Xuan knew he couldn't let the Divine Son continue, or this bizarre technique would cost him his life. With a sharp bite of his tongue, Li Xuan summoned his master sword and unleashed a strike.
*Hum.*
The master sword hummed resonating with supreme sword might, instantly charging towards the Divine Son.
Boom!
As the master sword descended, the space fractured and collapsed. The Divine Son's expression tightened, and his figure retreated tens of thousands of meters in an instant. But the next moment, time, like a shadow, struck again with a sword.
"Damn it!" The Divine Son cursed under his breath upon seeing this. His expression then turned cold, and he thrust out a palm.
*Crack!*
The sword energy from the master sword raged, and the offensive formed by the Divine Son's palm strike was instantly shattered. The Divine Son's pupils constricted slightly, and he now realized the unusual nature of the master sword.
"Heaven-Shattering Axe, Slash!"
The Divine Son dared not be careless. With a thought, a giant axe shimmering with cold light instantly appeared. In a flash of spiritual light, it charged directly towards the master sword.
*Clang!*
Axe and sword met, and with a *clang*, they were instantly repelled.
*Crack!*
The next instant, the Divine Son's expression sank. A crack had appeared on his giant axe.
"Why aren't you acting yet!" The Divine Son, pained, recalled his giant axe and then looked towards the void, shouting.
"Earth Deity, with your strength, you still can't subdue this person of destiny. Given your efforts, what I promised you will not be forgotten."
As the Divine Son's words faded, thirteen figures instantly appeared. Leading them was Qiu Shang.
"This person is a sword cultivator, possessing some means that restrain me. Moreover, his sword is rather peculiar; it can break all restrictive spells," the Divine Son said indifferently.
Qiu Shang smiled upon hearing this and said, "Leave it to me."
With that, Qiu Shang moved, instantly appearing before Li Xuan. Then, Qiu Shang waved his hand, and an invisible force instantly bound Li Xuan.
"Mere destiny, isn't it easily captured?" Qiu Shang glanced at Li Xuan, who was trapped in mid-air, a hint of disdain evident in his eyes.
"You defiant ones truly have immense courage."
Just then, a lazy voice slowly rang out. Li Xuan's face lit up upon hearing this; the person was none other than Liu Li.
Liu Li glanced at Li Xuan and then said, "With your current strength, you still cannot contend with the methods of these defiant ones. However, I disdained to deal with this Divine Son and Earth Deity myself."
After Liu Li spoke, Li Xuan felt his body loosen. He understood Liu Li's words and charged directly towards the Divine Son.
Seeing this, Qiu Shang was about to act, but Liu Li instantly blocked him and pointed a finger.
Boom!
The next moment, Qiu Shang's body was sent flying.
The twelve defiant ones who had followed Qiu Shang also attacked in unison, their target Liu Li.
Liu Li showed no concern, casually waving her hand, and a sword light flashed out.
*Buzz.*
Under the sword light, the twelve defiant ones were directly annihilated.
Qiu Shang's pupils constricted sharply as he saw this, instantly realizing that the woman before him possessed unfathomable strength.
"Your Excellency, we have no grievances with you." Qiu Shang had no choice but to yield. At that moment, Qiu Shang felt the woman's aura lock onto him.
Liu Li smiled upon hearing this and said, "Indeed, we have no grievances between us. It's just a pity you dared to set your sights on my young master."
As Liu Li finished speaking, she extended a finger and pressed down. Qiu Shang's face changed drastically. A terrifying aura instantly enveloped him.
Sensing this, Qiu Shang's expression hardened, and he crushed a spiritual talisman.
*Buzz!*
The spiritual talisman flashed a beam of spiritual light, instantly vanishing into the void. Seeing this, Liu Li's actions slowed.
"Oh, so you're calling for help now? I'd like to see how many of you defiant ones can come," Liu Li said, her eyes scanning the void.
*Crack!*
The next instant, a crisp sound rang out. The space seemed to be torn apart as a figure slowly emerged.
"Divine General, save me!" Upon seeing the newcomer, Qiu Shang shouted loudly.
The newcomer's expression was cold. After glancing at Qiu Shang, his gaze slowly shifted to Liu Li.
The next moment, the newcomer's expression froze.
"Holy shit, you're one of *his* people!"
As soon as the newcomer finished speaking, his figure moved, instantly disappearing from his spot.
Qiu Shang: "???"
Liu Li: "..."
Qiu Shang was now utterly bewildered. Was this really a Divine General from their organization of defiant ones?
"Come, come, continue calling for people," Liu Li seemed to have become interested and said to Qiu Shang.
Qiu Shang's face turned a bruised purple, but he gritted his teeth and crushed another spiritual talisman.
*Crack!*
As the talisman dissipated, the heavens and earth instantly let out a terrifying tearing sound.
Liu Li's expression slightly condensed upon seeing this.
"Hmm, a big one has arrived."
