Chapter 907: Chapter 908: Replica Key_1

Xi Boyaer, the supreme boss, had a level of intelligence and escape capabilities that could give anyone who opposed him a headache,

Once he confirmed that he was no match for Song Jian, Xi Boyaer discarded any semblance of dignity fitting of a supreme boss and chose to flee. Even after regaining most of his strength, he still refused to face Song Jian head-on, opting instead to continue his escape;

If he managed to get away this time, Song Jian probably wouldn’t be able to sleep soundly at night.

Mysterious Moonlight Sword!

Song Jian’s figure turned into a streak of light, rushing towards Xi Boyaer, who began to hint at transforming into a bat to escape. However, just as the thought crossed his mind, he suddenly discovered a long sword embedded in his chest;

“How, how can it be so fast?” Xi Boyaer’s face showed an expression of shock.

At that moment, he realized he had lost control of his body and couldn’t release any skills.

Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh~

Several swords flashed by, and a pained expression appeared on Xi Boyaer’s face. He let out a cold snort, then his body slowly lifted into the air before crashing heavily onto the ground;

Before he could react, Song Jian, with the Sky-breaking Sword in hand, hacked viciously at him;

Xi Boyaer gave Song Jian a mocking smile, ready to speak, but suddenly noticed that the temperature around him seemed to have risen by dozens of degrees;

Sixty Spirit Swords appeared around Xi Boyaer’s body, not attacking immediately but slowly moving around, and Xi Boyaer suddenly found himself trapped in a special space, cut off from the outside world. Although he could see Song Jian not far away, he couldn’t lock onto him, as if the two were in different spaces altogether.

Surprise crossed Song Jian’s face too. His original plan was to severely wound Xi Boyaer before he could escape—not necessarily kill him, but at least not let him get away so easily;

Unexpectedly, this time he’d summoned Sixty Spirit Swords. The Fifth Level of the Thousand Swords Art was at its limit with Sixty Spirit Swords, and reaching the limit would trigger the Karmic Fire Red Lotus Sword Formation;

Now, Xi Boyaer was trapped in the midst of the Karmic Fire Red Lotus Sword Formation;

The Sixty Spirit Swords blazed with roaring flames. These crimson flames grew fiercer and fiercer, enveloping Xi Boyaer completely. From the outside, each Spirit Sword looked like a burning lotus petal, with the Sixty Spirit Swords instantly forming into a fire-red lotus, surrounding Xi Boyaer in their center like stars around the moon;

“What, what kind of skill is this, how could you possess such a terrifying skill?”

“Legendary, this is a Legendary Level skill…”

Despair surfaced on Xi Boyaer’s face as he let out a loud roar, stuck motionless in the center of the sword formation with no way to escape. If he dared to transform into a bat now, the bats would likely be consumed by the flames in an instant;

The red lotus bloomed with dazzling brilliance, illuminating almost half of Sky City. Slowly, a black light appeared on the edges of the lotus, within which surged a strong Abyssal aura;

“Abyssal Raging Flame?” Song Jian’s brow furrowed slightly as he stared intently at the black flames at the edge of the Karmic Fire Red Lotus formation.

Inside the formation, Xi Boyaer screamed in agony and, within moments, was reduced to ashes. Killing Xi Boyaer with the Karmic Fire Red Lotus formation felt to Song Jian like using a meat cleaver to kill a chicken; within the formation, Xi Boyaer had not a shred of resistance.

After Xi Boyaer’s death, the blooming Karmic Fire Red Lotus also began to slowly disintegrate, vanishing before Song Jian’s eyes as if it had never appeared.

The patch of black Abyssal Flames that had once stirred his heart, however, plunged Song Jian into deep thought.

“Perhaps it’s because I used a Legendary Level Abyssal weapon during the promotion,” Song Jian speculated in his mind.

While there wasn’t much of the Abyssal Demon Flame at the edge of the Karmic Fire Red Lotus Sword Formation, it was extremely pure and identical to the Abyssal Demon Flame that Song Jian had previously summoned using the Book of the Abyss.

Having lost the Book of the Abyss, Song Jian had also lost the ability to control the Abyssal Demon Flame, but now, the Abyssal Demon Flame appeared before him as if by some freak accident, making him feel as if his connection with Abyssal Hell hadn’t completely ceased with the disappearance of the Book of the Abyss.

“Anyway, it hasn’t caused me any harm!” Song Jian thought to himself, sighing. He put away the Sky-breaking Sword and walked towards where Xi Boyaer had turned to ashes.

The task of the Sword Immortal’s path was another step completed; only eight Sovereign-Level BOSSes remained in his mission.

Most players probably hadn’t even heard of what a Sovereign-Level BOSS was, which made Song Jian’s task significantly more challenging, leaving him to rely on sheer luck to encounter one.

Although Xi Boyaer was a Sovereign-Level BOSS, he was always in a weakened state. The loot he dropped was inferior even to that of a Lord-Level BOSS, with not a single Dark Gold Quality item appearing, only dropping a piece of gold quality equipment and another of silver quality, with the rest being two pieces of green quality materials.

Both in terms of the quantity and quality of the loot, the items dropped by Xi Boyaer had nothing to do with that of a Sovereign-Level.

However, Song Jian was mentally prepared for this situation. Aside from being more cunning and having irritating escape abilities, Xi Boyaer didn’t have any means to threaten Song Jian’s life. This might have had a lot to do with his weakened state, but regardless, Xi Boyaer didn’t exhibit the power fitting for a Sovereign-Level BOSS.

So there wasn’t much to say about the loot. With an expressionless face, Song Jian picked up all the loot. After a cursory glance, he didn’t think these items would be of much help to him, so he planned to throw them all into the guild warehouse.

“Eh, what’s this?” Song Jian took a gold quality item out of his inventory and carefully examined its attributes.

It was a hexagonal prism made of black stone, which looked quite odd.

“Hexagonal Key, Strange Item, Gold Quality, Use Effect: It is the key to opening the Judgment Hall (Level 3 Secret Realm). Only by using it can you enter the secret realm of the Judgment Hall; Use Requirement: None, Remaining Time: Six hours and twenty-nine minutes.”

“This seems to be a key to start a dungeon!” Song Jian toyed with the hexagonal prism, thinking to himself.

Following its attribute description, there was a countdown timer continuously ticking. It seemed there was a time limit to enter this Level 3 Secret Realm, and if Song Jian couldn’t find the entrance to the Judgment Hall Secret Realm within six hours, the item would be of no use.

Song Jian jumped onto a tall building and surveyed all the buildings of Sky City; many of these structures bore marks of battle, though some remained intact.

In the central area of Sky City stood a giant white tower, surrounded by many tall buildings. This was the best-preserved cluster of buildings in the entire city.

Song Jian leapt down from the high building and ran towards the central white tower of the city.
