Then a trace of blood flowed from the corner of his mouth.

It was a serious challenge to his body and spirit to cast three kinds of intent worlds at the same time.

Even though Ethan was extremely strong, the backlash still forced through his defenses.

However, the problem was not serious and would not affect the battle's outcome.

"The sword's intent transforms the world and envelops it."

Ethan violently shook Alissa's other hand!

The small world formed by the sword intent engulfed them both.

"Is this the world of Sword Intent? This is impossible!" Alissa gasped, stunned beyond belief.

A person skilled in both scythe and sword, as well as fist techniques—each reaching the level of transforming entire worlds of intent.

How could such an evil genius possibly exist in this world?

Throughout the ancient history of Oceanreach Continent, never had there been such a shocking and unparalleled talent.

"Haha, no matter how talented you are, today is your end!" Alissa's killing intent surged to its peak.

She frantically reinforced her sword intent and mobilized her spiritual energy, ruthlessly assaulting the fragile sword intent world that Ethan had formed.

Though Ethan could condense the world of sword intent, his realm was still insufficient.

Alissa knew this well—if she gave her full strength, she could shatter his sword intent world.

Cracks rapidly appeared, spreading like spiderwebs.

The world of Sword Intent begun to crumble.

Then that golden beam of terrifying power surged towards Ethan.

Their distance closed to less than a foot.

"Supreme Profound Sky Sword Technique, final move—Silver Blade Splitting the Sky!"

Ethan took out a puppet and controlled it with his mental energy to wield the Thunder Sword.

Though its force fell short of himself, it was not much weaker.

The bronze puppet dodged rapidly in front of Ethan, then raised the Thunder Sword and struck downward.

A blazing silver blade of light exploded outward, woven with crackling black lightning.

Zhila~!

The immense silver blade collided with the brutal golden beam.

With a thunderous roar, the golden beam was cleaved cleanly in two, splitting toward the sky and the earth.

"This sword is so strong!"

"This Ethan's talent is unprecedented—unmatched in history!"

Skyler couldn't contain himself, stepping onto the armrest and gripping it tightly.

He gave the Ashenvale family a green light, Ethan is definitely displeased.

His city lord's palace seemed to have missed a peerless evildoer destined to become known throughout Oceanreach.

"Ethan, the posture of a great emperor!" Lana was at a loss for ways to praise him.

That was the highest accolade she could summon.

Around them, others were stunned speechless, caught in awe and disbelief.

The battlefield's center remained locked in a fierce duel.

The silver blade and the golden beam wrestled with equal ferocity.

Yet the puppet's sword strike ultimately faltered.

The silver blade of light weakened rapidly, dissipating into nothingness.

But the golden beam maintained its fury unabated.

"Hahaha, Ethan, though you are gifted, you are too arrogant," Alissa sneered with ice in her voice.

"Even combined with the power to transform the world, your sword is strong enough to slay a seventh-turn Mahayana realm cultivator."

"But in the face of my ultimate move? You are still lacking!"

Her laughter was sharp and cutting, dripping with venomous confidence.

Ethan, at such a close range, could not evade the golden beam.

No matter how resilient his body, the beam would pierce him instantly!

As predicted, Ethan's massive form was impaled by the golden beam.

His breath faltered fast.

His body plummeted like a kite with its string severed, drifting helplessly toward Alissa.

Ethan followed the plan etched in his heart from the start and slowly closed his eyes.

The breathing technique activated in an instant.

His breath of life gradually vanished.

"Hahahahaha!"

Alissa's wild laughter echoed across the battlefield.

She reveled in her triumph—Ethan's greatest threat was finally vanquished.

Bram, observing from afar, exhaled deeply in relief.

Ethan's performance had surpassed both his and the expectations of Mr. Gilbert and Mr. Willow.

If only given more time to cultivate, Ethan's path to the Supreme Realm would be assured.

He might even ascend to the Imperial path, becoming a great emperor himself.

The Vernal Dawn royal family, without doubt, would be left with no chance of survival.

Unfortunately for Ethan, his arrogance had been his downfall.

He took Alissa's killer move head-on, making a fatal mistake.

"Daddy!"

Solara's red eyes trembled wildly; her mind was overwhelmed with despair.

Rain collapsed to the ground, overwhelmed with grief.

"Why...?"

"Didn't you say you would not die?"

Rain's pupils quivered, anguish ripping through her heart as she watched Ethan fall like fallen leaves borne by the wind.

"This... failed?"

Lana frowned deeply.

The turn of events was too sudden.

Was Ethan dead?

Such a genius, destroyed so abruptly?

He had been full of momentum just moments before, poised to decimate Alissa.

"Hahahahaha! Arrogant boy, this is the price you pay for crossing the Ashenvale family!"

Noel Ashenvale looked skyward with cruel laughter.

He spread his senses wide and confirmed that Ethan's life breath had ceased.

"Ethan..."

Magnus set down his heavy sword with a grave frown.

He refused to believe Ethan could fall so easily.

Yet the harsh truth remained—Ethan's breath of life was extinguished.

His heavy body hit the ground, forming a crater in the earth.

A hush fell over the crowd.

Silence tightened like a vice, time itself seeming to stop.

Panting heavily, Alissa stepped forward slowly after confirming Ethan's death.

Her subtle footsteps shattered the silence as she approached to claim her prize.

But then, the unexpected happened.

Ethan's eyes snapped open suddenly.

In a flash, he rose and simultaneously threw a punch.

"The Abyssal Sixteen Art, the sixteenth art!"

Power condensed into his fist exploded instantly.

The destructive energy surged like an overwhelming tidal wave, engulfing Alissa.

It all transpired in the blink of an eye.

Alissa was caught unprepared by Ethan's sudden burst of strength, weakened from the massive energy expenditure and lowered guard.

Though Noel Ashenvale shouted, "Get back!"

Ethan maintained his punch posture.

His fist pierced through Alissa's body.

Pain twisted Alissa's beautiful face; the corners of her mouth twitched as disbelief filled her eyes.

"How can this be?"

"Your life breath has obviously completely disappeared!"
