"Borrowing a sword?"
Atomic Samurai gave a wry smile, wanting to speak and warn him.
This Nichirin was not an obedient weapon.
It had its own will, and only a Sword Saint recognized by it could wield it.
He himself had barely managed to get a response from it after risking his life... However, what happened in the next second completely overturned Atomic Samurai's understanding.
Buzz!!!!!
The Nichirin blade, which had been silent, seemed to hear a supreme summons. Its body trembled violently, emitting a clear, soaring sword cry.
It was submission, and also ecstasy.
It yearned to become the sharp edge that would cut through all things in the hands of this Martial God!
Clang—!
A dazzling crimson stream of light shot up into the sky.
The Nichirin blade unsheathed itself!
It transformed into a fiery dragon, instantly piercing through the rain curtain, drawing a perfect arc in the air.
Then it steadily landed in Lin Mo's right hand.
"A good blade."
Lin Mo's fingers gently brushed over the warm hilt, remarking lightly.
With just these two words, the Nichirin blade seemed to receive immense encouragement, instantly erupting with unprecedented light, like a blazing sun falling into the mortal world.
Boom!
The moment Lin Mo's five fingers gripped the hilt.
An indescribable sharpness erupted from Lin Mo's center.
If Atomic Samurai, when using this blade, was barely taming a furious beast.
Then in Lin Mo's hands at this moment, this blade had completely transformed into an obedient weapon.
All its sharpness, all its power, was unleashed without reservation at this moment, solely to please this true Martial God.
[Trait 2: Myriad Manifestation Martial Arts — Weapon Deification]
Under the blessing of Martial God · Origin, Lin Mo didn't need any foundation in any style of swordsmanship.
Because he was the ultimate end of the Way of the Sword.
Any weapon in his hands would unleash power beyond theoretical limits.
At this moment, in the sky above.
Centipede Sage's colossal body, obscuring the sky and sun, was already close at hand.
"For the will of the earth! Die, you ants!!"
The deafening roar transformed into a tangible sound wave, further crushing the ruins on the ground.
A huge shadow engulfed Lin Mo's figure.
Lin Mo showed no panic, holding the blade in one hand, his body sinking slightly, adopting an impeccable starting stance.
In his eyes, the colors of the world were fading.
The noisy rain disappeared, the hideous Monster disappeared.
All that remained were the purest lines.
[Trait 1: Martial Gods Eye — Death Line Lock]
In his vision, all things had cracks.
Whether it was the air, the rain, or the seemingly indestructible Centipede Sage carapace, in Lin Mo's eyes, they were all covered with intricate red lines.
Those lines were the connecting points of causality, the paths to the end of all things.
And in the very center of Centipede Sage's massive body, a thick red line ran from head to tail.
That was its weakness, its death point.
"Martial God: Sky Severance"
Lin Mo whispered.
Then, he swung his blade.
An upward slash, simple to the extreme.
Clang—!!!
The world suddenly fell silent.
A crimson aurora appeared between heaven and earth.
Immediately after, that aurora suddenly erupted, transforming into a dazzling blade light thousands of meters long, flowing upwards!
This single slash cut through the torrential rain.
This single slash cut through the thick clouds.
This single slash even cut through the scroll called "World."
If one were to look down from ten thousand meters high at this moment, they would see a breathtaking spectacle—
The entire ruins of Z City, along with the sky and atmosphere above it, were completely split in two by a perfectly straight red line!
It was as if the entire world had been forcibly cleaved in half by this single slash!
Centipede Sage, who was in a high-speed dive, suddenly froze.
Its huge eyes were filled with disbelief and deep fear.
A straight line of blood began from its hideous head, running along its hundreds of kilometers of spine, all the way to its tail, which was out of sight.
"Im... impos... sible..."
Crack!!!
Accompanied by an earth-shattering roar, Centipede Sage's colossal body neatly split into two from the middle, collapsing loudly to either side!
The earth trembled, and dust flew.
Monster blood gushed out like a waterfall, staining the entire ruins.
"Divine punishment? Nothing more than this."
Between the two massive corpses, under the sky of blood rain.
Lin Mo stood proudly, holding the crimson Nichirin blade.
He casually twirled the blade, and golden flames ignited on its body, evaporating all the defiled blood rain.
"This... this is..."
Atomic Samurai's eyes widened, his pupils, which had been clouded by severe injuries, now shone terrifyingly bright.
He stared intently at that back, his body trembling violently from excessive excitement.
He had always thought his Atomic Slash had reached the pinnacle of swordsmanship.
But that slash just now... that slash not only cut down the Monster, but also cut through Atomic Samurai's inherent understanding of the word "swordsmanship."
It was a sword strike that transcended technique, transcended speed, and even transcended dimensions.
"Divine... skill..."
[From Centipede Sage's astonishment and despair, Energy Value +40000!]
[From Atomic Samurai's extreme shock, Energy Value +5000!]
...However, the battle was not over.
Just as Centipede Sage's corpse crashed to the ground, on the other side of the battlefield, a completely different yet equally suffocating sense of oppression suddenly descended.
Light converged.
The will of fifty-four trillion individuals achieved its final unification at this moment.
The golden radiance dissipated, replaced by a slender, elegant figure radiating platinum luster all over.
Platinum Sperm, descended.
He didn't have the exaggerated muscles of Golden Sperm before, nor the comical appearance of Black Sperm.
At this moment, he seemed to be the most perfect physical body in the universe, every line filled with power and beauty.
This should have been his moment to declare the end to the world.
This should have been his moment to enjoy the desperate eyes of the S-Class Heroes.
However.
The newly born Platinum Sperm, whose face should have been filled with arrogance and haughtiness, now showed not the slightest hint of relaxation.
On the contrary.
A drop of cold sweat slowly trickled down his smooth, platinum forehead.
His eyes were fixed on the man holding the red blade not far away, filled with deep apprehension and solemnity.
As a fusion, in the final stage of his fusion just now, although he couldn't move, his consciousness could clearly perceive everything happening outside.
He sensed that the Evil Natural Water, which even he found troublesome, was scattered by some force in an instant.
He sensed that Centipede Sage, who called himself the "Incarnation of Earth," was cut in two like tofu by a single slash.
The sharpness of that slash, even from several kilometers away, made him feel a stinging pain while still in a state of fusion.
"What exactly is going on with that man?"
Platinum Sperm clenched his fist, feeling the fifty-four trillion powers surging like a sea within him.
This power should have made him feel invincible, should have made him feel that all living beings were mere ants.
But at this moment, facing the man with his back to him, facing the Nichirin blade still dripping golden flames, he actually felt a chill from the depths of his soul.
"Even the current me can't see through his depth."
Platinum Sperm didn't rush to act, nor did he make any sound.
His platinum body was tensed to the extreme, like a fully drawn bow, ready to face any potential destructive blow.
"Is this the so-called 'strongest man on earth'? This oppressive feeling..."
"It seems, in this battle, I cannot be careless in the slightest."
Platinum Sperm took a deep breath, forcibly suppressing the tremor in his heart, and adopted a battle stance.
