Chapter 1167 - 1167: Still Have a Trump Card?

The five people moved violently, and the crimson blade in the hand of the Netherworld Emperor suddenly retracted and abruptly stomped towards the ground fiercely.

Boom!

With a loud noise, dust rose all around, directly enveloping the Netherworld Emperor.

It looked like dust, but in fact, it was his power, and suddenly, centered on him, a huge vortex formed, howling and resisting Liu Zixuan and the others.

"You four stand at the four positions, I'll go in and fight him!"

Liu Zixuan shouted fiercely, directly entering the vortex, while Zhao Yi, Jiang Yunxuan, Tiger, and Xiao Hu stood at the four corners of the vortex, each showing their expertise to launch attacks inside, providing cover for Liu Zixuan.

Borrowing the power of the Nameless Sword, Liu Zixuan quickly entered the vortex.

This place seemed like an arena deliberately set by the Netherworld Emperor, the space was not large, only enough to accommodate the two of them fighting.

At this moment, the Netherworld Emperor stood in mid-air within the vortex, overlooking Liu Zixuan, and coldly laughed, "You really give me surprises again and again, the initial Netherworld Palm should have been cured by the Ghost Gate Thirteen Needles, right?"

"Correct!" Liu Zixuan replied, holding his sword.

"Then you hid your strength, exploded with potential at a crucial moment, used the special power within you to destroy my Netherworld Giant Flood Dragon, and now the array is not enough to define you, yet you are a powerful Battle Array Master."

The Netherworld Emperor paused and sinisterly laughed, "Combining medical skill, array, and special powers to cross into the Emperor Realm, I must admit, such a perfect martial artist like you, I really don't want to kill."

"I hadn't realized I was this outstanding before!" Liu Zixuan raised an eyebrow; "Thank you for summarizing this for me; I'll use it to pick up girls in the future."

"If you want to live to pick up girls, it's not impossible!" The Netherworld Emperor slowly extended his right hand, and a dark power orb appeared, turning into the shape of an elixir in the blink of an eye: "As long as you swallow this and agree to cooperate with me, I can spare you, and your brothers too. Remember, it's cooperation, I'm not asking you to be my subordinate, isn't that proof enough of my sincerity?"

Upon hearing this, Liu Zixuan snickered and disdainfully said, "Can't beat me, so you're trying the soft approach now?"

"So it seems you prefer to drink penal wine instead of fine wine?" The Netherworld Emperor's expression turned stern, originally thinking he could persuade Liu Zixuan to stand by his side, as after all, Liu Zixuan's current display of strength was enough to prove his excellence.

Such a young genius, it would really be a pity to kill him!

If he could be used, he would probably be the strongest killing weapon under the Netherworld Emperor's command in the Netherworld Hall!

However, Liu Zixuan refused with one word. It was clear; Liu Zixuan intended to fight to the end!

Liu Zixuan fiercely pointed his sword at the Netherworld Emperor: "It's come to this, let's not waste words, let's fight!"

"Those who follow me will prosper, those who oppose me will perish! I have already given you a chance!"

The Netherworld Emperor suddenly rushed towards Liu Zixuan, with both fists filled with immense power, as if intending to crush Liu Zixuan with a single punch.

Liu Zixuan, upon seeing this, moved his mind, and the Nameless Sword flew out of his hand. The power of the Dragon Veins within the sword was unleashed, and instantly, a dragon-shaped Sword Intent surged forward to meet that strike.

Liu Zixuan followed behind, intending to severely injure the Netherworld Emperor at close range after one strike.

This was the most suitable opportunity to attack he had found so far.

The dragon-shaped Sword Intent and the Netherworld Emperor's fists collided, causing the terrifying vortex to shake a few times, making Zhao Yi and the others outside tumble with Qi and blood, almost falling from mid-air. They could imagine how intense the battle inside was.

Taking this opportunity, Liu Zixuan, holding his sword, reached the front. The sword edge hummed lightly, directly aiming for the heart of the Netherworld Emperor.

Swoosh...

Seeing it almost reach his chest, suddenly it's as if an extremely repulsive force appeared, and it simply couldn't pierce through.

Seeing Liu Zixuan frown, the Netherworld Emperor taunted with a laugh: "I told you, the Life and Death Realm is immortal, and attacks from ordinary realm martial artists are simply ineffective."

Speaking, the Netherworld Emperor reached out with two fingers, pinched the blade of the Nameless Sword, and with a gentle squeeze, the sword blade immediately shattered.

"Nameless Sword!"

Seeing the Nameless Sword shatter, Liu Zixuan was instantly furious, just as he roared and was about to retaliate, suddenly a massive force swept towards him.

With a heavy punch, Liu Zixuan flew backward in response.

Bang!

Bang!

He crashed twice inside the vortex before landing on the ground, after which he spat out a mouthful of blood.

His face instantly turned pale. At this time, Liu Zixuan's dantian trembled violently, and faintly cracks appeared as if it was about to shatter, while the meridians throughout his body were even more severely damaged by that strike.

In other words, at this moment, Liu Zixuan was seriously injured. Both externally and internally, it was the most severe blow.

"Not bad, still alive." The Netherworld Emperor stood hardly a meter in front of him, looking down at Liu Zixuan with a cold smile: "That blow just now was my strongest punch, an ordinary Innate Emperor Realm Third Heaven expert, probably their dantian would already be shattered and meridians burst, dead."

The Netherworld Emperor was right, but Liu Zixuan's dantian was formed by the Power of the Dragon Veins, and the meridians were nourished by the Dragon Veins' power for a long time. So he was only severely injured and not dead.

Without a doubt, he was now also in a desperate situation.

The strongest punch had severely injured Liu Zixuan. If another punch came, he might die directly!

Raising his head to look at the Netherworld Emperor, his lips moved slightly: "The strongest strike?"

"Indeed. I always value talent extremely, considering you're a young genius-level powerhouse, so I used my strongest strike." The Netherworld Emperor spoke solemnly.

Liu Zixuan knew in his heart that in the battle between the two, they had almost used some bottom cards, but there were still some unused cards.

For example, the Netherworld Emperor's self-created Soul Splitting Technique, if the Netherworld Giant Flood Dragon was considered a powerful trump card, then the Soul Splitting Technique should be the strongest card at the bottom of the box.

Seeing him thinking, the Netherworld Emperor laughed, "What's wrong? Still have trump cards?"

It was evident that he could also see Liu Zixuan had a trump card.

After all, daring to duel with his Life and Death Realm power as an Innate Emperor Realm, without a bottom card, would be outright foolishness.

"A trump card... there really is one!"

Liu Zixuan moved his mind, directly taking out a box from the Relic Mini World.

"Chess pieces?" Seeing the item in the box, the Netherworld Emperor suddenly burst into laughter: "What? Planning to play a couple of games with me before you die?"

"What? Afraid!" Liu Zixuan stood up, enduring the pain all over, holding a box of black and white chess pieces, and laughed coldly.

"Let's see what trick you can pull!"

The seriously injured Liu Zixuan, in the eyes of the Netherworld Emperor, was nothing but a clown over the beam!
