I let the genie out of the bottle

While Tony was laughing, Lu Ye took the opportunity to put the sword in his mouth.

At this moment, Lu Ye only needed to gently push the sword in his hand forward again, and the sword formed from magical flames would be enough to directly destroy his brain, starting from his mouth.

At that point, given his current state, even if his physique as a god-slayer surpasses that of ordinary people, he will be beyond dead.

Faced with a life-or-death crisis, his first reaction was not to back down.

Instead, the demonic sword in his hand, gleaming with the light of power, slashed diagonally towards Lu Ye without any fancy moves.

The demonic sword, imbued with power and capable of severing all things, was something Lu Ye's current physical body could not withstand.

Judging from his stance, even if Lu Ye pierced his brain with a sword, he would still cut off half of Lu Ye's head with a single strike.

"What a shameless way to play," Lu Ye sighed softly.

Tony's goal was not to exchange his life for Lu Ye's, but at this moment, the only way to survive was to put himself in a life-or-death situation.

Because he knew that Lu Ye would never be willing to trade one for one with him!

In Lu Ye's other hand, a golden light flashed, and a lightsaber quickly condensed into shape, meeting Tony's demonic sword head-on.

However, this hastily made, crudely crafted lightsaber only managed to pause Tony's magic sword, which was imbued with the [Torn Silver Hand], for a moment before being severed.

Taking advantage of this slight pause, Lu Ye pushed the magic sword he was holding in his other hand forward one last time, then immediately let go and withdrew.

The demonic sword that could cleave through anything barely grazed his face, leaving only a shallow bloodstain on his cheek and severing a few strands of hair.

The magic sword that Lu Ye thrust into Tony's mouth failed to achieve its purpose because Tony bit it with his teeth.

The Sword King, Salvatore Tony, is a man who loves to fight, but he never confines himself to the methods of fighting.

Using this almost shameless method, he directly turned the disadvantage back into an even match.

Lu Ye showed no regret whatsoever.

The magic sword, formed from the magic flames that Tony was still holding in his teeth and hadn't had time to spit out, was practically a magic bomb that could unleash a torrent of flames at any moment.

At this moment, the magic within the sword was unleashed.

"boom!"

A deafening roar erupted from the Sword King's mouth.

The crystal-clear, beautiful sword, formed from magic, instantly transformed into a raging inferno of magical energy.

Compared to the surface of the body, the body inside a god-slayer is quite vulnerable.

Therefore, if this sword were to burst from his unsuspecting mouth, it would be enough to burn him to ashes from the inside out.

With a loud "boom!", a burst of flame shot out from Tony's mouth, followed by flames of condensed magic erupting from the other orifices on his body.

The flames that rushed to his side transformed into magic and returned to his body.

"It's a bit of a pity—"

Lu Ye frowned slightly as he looked at the Sword King, who was surrounded by flames not far away.

Because, beneath the raging flames, he could vaguely see the cold, bright silver metallic luster.

"Boom, boom."

Heavy footsteps sounded, and a humanoid figure, whose body faintly shimmered with crimson and bright silver light, slowly emerged from the flames.

Countless runes appeared on his body.

The flames surrounding him slowly dissipated, and black smoke occasionally drifted from his mouth.

"My kinsman, you're really ruthless."

The Sword King slowly exhaled black smoke, enduring the pain as he spoke.

As he opened his mouth, it was clear that his oral cavity had turned charred black.

His fighting spirit grew even stronger.

The embodiment of steel, possessing power usurped from the Norse hero Siegfried, can increase its hardness and weight by an astonishing degree without becoming sluggish due to the added weight.

Although the Steel Incarnation's nominal greatest weakness is high temperature, it can still withstand an attack of high heat equivalent to a solar flare for more than ten minutes and only suffer sunburn.

The flames used by Lu Ye are essentially the same as those used by magicians; they naturally lack the power of authority and the temperature of solar flames.

The reason he possesses such great power is simply because of Lu Ye's immense magical power.

Therefore, such flames could not possibly endanger the Sword King's Steel Protection.

However, judging from the wisps of black smoke that occasionally escaped from the Sword King's mouth, it seemed that Lu Ye's painstakingly crafted moves were not entirely ineffective.

"You're not dead yet," Lu Ye said calmly, his expression unchanged. "Besides, the sword strike you just delivered showed absolutely no mercy."

However, looking at the Sword King, who was clearly under the protection of steel, he also felt a bit of a headache.

In retrospect, his methods were somewhat lacking.

It's quite easy to use your immense magical power to bully magicians and the like.

However, when facing god-slayers and disobedient gods, many methods may be considered unacceptable.

Of course, Lu Ye was certain that unless there was a dimensional difference in strength, even if he couldn't defeat others, he would be invincible from the start.

"Phew, I feel like part of my internal organs have been burned off. Luckily, I used Steel Protection in time. If I had been even a fraction of a second later, I probably would have been burned to a crisp from the inside out. What's this called again? A thousand ropes per ton?" Salvatore Tony gripped his sword tightly, the power gleaming on its blade.

At this moment, he was not in the mood for friendly competition.

Because he had already realized that the other party's primary goal was clearly to take his life.

"This phrase is called 'a hair's breadth away from death.'" Although he was worried about how to break through the Steel Blessing of the Sword King, Lu Ye still crossed his arms and looked calm and composed.

after all.

The process is omitted; it's already cooled down.

As long as no one leaves using this life-saving method, what is there to be nervous about?

However, let's give it a try first.

A sword slowly appeared in Lu Ye's hand.

Specify the current moment as "cause".

I'm trying to set "Breakthrough Steel Protection" as a "Result" --

P.S.: I remember that the Sword King's power is only the Steel Incarnation, which comes with immortality, right? And this should only be a fake death, not a resurrection... Am I missing something?

Chapter Forty-Six: This is a forgery!

Using the present as the "cause," Lu Ye attempts to achieve the "effect."

However, the ability to omit the process cannot be activated.

Because, for Lu Ye at his current level, it is impossible to break through Wang Dongni's steel protection using his own sword.

Although he had already guessed it earlier, Lu Ye confirmed it once again.

However, this does not mean that Lu Ye has no other options.

"Hey, don't dodge! Let me chop you up!"

Salvatore Tony laughed, wielding the Sword of Power, and slashed down with it.

Although Wang Dongni had confirmed that Lu Ye harbored the intention to kill him, he didn't care.

Or rather, in his view, this is how battles should be fought: before a winner is decided, one must be determined to kill the opponent.

The so-called god-slayer is probably this kind of guy.

"So, you see..." Lu Ye sighed helplessly, "I hate both those who are not very bright and those who think they are."

As he spoke, he shifted his body slightly, narrowly dodging Tony's magic sword once again.

Although he felt helpless against the Sword King, whose defense was as tough as a tortoise, the Sword King was equally helpless against him.

Because, although the ability to omit a process requires a cooldown period after each use, if the process omitted in one use is quite small, then the cooldown period will be quite short.

Tony's attacks were almost entirely swordsmanship. Even when imbued with the power of authority, they were still sword attacks.

Therefore, to dodge his attacks, all you need to do is move slightly.

If the omitted process is used to dodge his attack, then the cooldown time is almost negligible.

In this way, no matter how powerful Tony's [Tearing Silver Hand] is, it will be useless if it cannot hit Lu Ye.

Not only Tony's sword, but even other people, unless it is a covering attack or a series of attacks that leave him no time to react, are no threat to him at all.

Thinking about it now, it turns out I wasted my time considering the retreat route.

“My kinsman, the power you have received seems to be more than just speed, doesn’t it?”

Although Tony was quite excited at first, after using the magic sword imbued with power to slash at Lu Ye for a while but still not being able to even touch the hem of Lu Ye's clothes, he gradually lost patience.

"You don't actually think I'd tell you the secret of my abilities, do you?" Lu Ye raised an eyebrow and said slowly.

“Ha, even if you hadn’t told me, I probably would have guessed.” Salvatore Tony smiled confidently. “Although it seems hard to imagine any connection between this and Mars, whom you killed, your power is probably related to space, right?”

"Every time I'm about to strike you, you just happen to move a little bit and dodge my sword. It's so annoying, like an eel."

“Ah, you’re right.” Lu Ye raised an eyebrow and said expressionlessly, “The name of my power is Crimson King.”

"Really? Crimson King, what a strange name. But whatever." Tony smiled brightly, raising a hand to ruffle his hair. "The important thing is, this power of yours can't be used continuously, right? Although the time between each use of the power is very short, there is still a certain time interval!"

"In other words, as long as my sword's speed can outpace the cooldown time of your power, or rather, if I can possess more swords—"

"Then, you can't do anything about it!"

As Tony said this, he swung his sword down again.

However, this time, Lu Ye felt a sense of crisis, as if he would be cut into pieces by a sword that seemed to come from nowhere at any moment.

"Helpless? You may have misunderstood something."

As Lu Ye spoke, his expression turned slightly somber.

The next moment, a cold light flashed on the ground around Lu Ye, and countless demonic swords, gleaming with the light of power, stabbed towards Lu Ye.

Even at this moment, Lu Ye remained calm and composed, speaking softly.

"I think I may have found a way to deal with your [Torn Silver Hand]."

"what?"

Upon hearing this, Tony was slightly taken aback.

The next moment, Lu Ye appeared beside Salvatore Tony, grabbed his wrist holding the demon sword, and twisted his hand sharply.

Then, the demonic sword in Tony's hand, which was said to be able to cut through everything in the sky and on the ground, pierced directly into his abdomen, which was flashing with the runes of steel protection!

The Steel Incarnation, possessing superhuman physical defense, was as fragile as a newspaper when faced with the Demon Sword, which was capable of unleashing all things; it was instantly sliced ​​in two!

however--

"Muda! Muda!" The Sword King was only slightly surprised that his steel avatar had been broken before bursting into laughter.

The moment he drew the demon sword, it was as if the molten metal had solidified again; his wounds tightened, and not a single drop of blood flowed out.

"Hahaha! Could it be that when you say you're dealing with my [Tearing Silver Hand], you mean using my Steel Avatar to block it?"

Tony shouted loudly, gripping the magic sword tightly in his hand, and slashed at Lu Ye's head.

"Since your powers have a cooldown period, then I will make my attacks cool down even faster than your powers!"

"Furthermore, the longer the distance you move, the longer the cooldown time will be, right?"

"As long as I have enough swords, and as long as my swords are fast enough, I will definitely be able to defeat you!"

"I'm telling you, don't be so arrogant." Lu Ye lowered his head slightly, a cold smile playing on his lips.

"What I did just now was merely one way to break through your Steel Incarnation, using your own spear against your own shield."

Because the process was omitted just now, he reached the Sword King's side, grabbed his wrist, and slashed at himself. At this time, his ability is still on cooldown.

Therefore, he could not dodge the Sword King's attack.

However, he showed no sign of panic.

The source of the power, the "Torn Silver Hand," appeared in his mind.
