Su Mo smiled but did not retort. He would not allow the leaders of evil clans to die such an easy death. Su Mo wanted them to watch as he destroyed their village. He wanted the clan masters to regret participating in the destruction of the Crimson Heart Village.
"It's good that you're here, Su Mo. I was planning on coming to kill you after I've dealt with the Cerulean Ocean Blades. However, I didn't expect you to provoke me like this. Since you're here, I will kill you and then destroy the Crimson Heart Village again!" Hornless Dragon roared.
"Well, I sincerely hope you have the strength to kill me." Su Mo said with a smile.
"Hahaha! I have been in the Golden Core Realm for a hundred years! No one on the floating island dares to talk to me this way besides Li Jianting. You're brave, young man, but the price of courage is too much for you to bear!" Hornless Dragon said with a laugh.
Hornless Dragon had utterly lost it. He had finally managed to bring the Hornless Ice Dragon Village to this point and was about to become the ruler of the floating island, but he did not expect his village to be destroyed in just a few punches.
Although Hornless Dragon was greedy and lusted for money, he couldn't bear to see the foundation of his clan be destroyed.
"Well, if I were afraid of you, I wouldn't have come," Su Mo said indifferently.
"Hahaha! Since you've destroyed my village, I want to destroy you!" After saying that, Hornless Dragon rushed forward in a flash.
Su Mo looked at the enraged Hornless Dragon before him and remained silent. He then put on his Meteor Gauntlets. The gauntlets had been upgraded with the system's help, and they were now Magic Treasure spirit tools.
The Meteor Gauntlets were now more powerful than ever.
Hornless Dragon lifted his sword and slashed diagonally toward Su Mo. Then Su Mo raised his fists to block the attack.
At this moment, the air surrounding the village changed colors, and the clouds in the sky scattered. The two cultivators separated as they clashed with each other.
Su Mo shook his numb fists and began to study his opponent.
Although Hornless Dragon and the clan master of the Myriad Flower Blades were both swordsmen in the Golden Core Realm, Su Mo felt as though he was fighting against a completely different being.
The sword technique of the clan master of the Myriad Flower Blades was feminine and more graceful, while his attacks were intricate yet deadly. As for Hornless Dragon, his sword was mighty and heavy, revealing its sharp edge, vowing to hack and slash its opponents brutally.
Hornless Dragon's cultivation realm was also higher than the clan master of the Myriad Flower Blade Clan, causing Su Mo to feel a tremendous amount of pressure.
If it were the Su Mo from a month ago, he would've definitely been injured by Hornless Dragon's attack.
"Hmph, I didn't expect you to have such skills, but it's about time I end this battle!" Hornless Dragon said as he became more focused.
Su Mo remained silent and looked straight at Hornless Dragon, patiently waiting for his next move.
"Nine Mystical Ice Swords!" Hornless Dragon exclaimed.
Nine sword-shaped azure silhouettes appeared following the release of the Nine Mystical Ice Swords. The nine silhouettes resembled lotus petals revolving around its bud.
At this moment, the surrounding temperature began to drop rapidly, causing Su Mo's muscular physique to feel as if he had fallen into an ice cellar. The sword technique within the spell mercilessly tore at Su Mo's body.
"Great Sun Formation!"
Su Mo circulated the Great Sun Formation with all his strength, trying to resist the frigid temperatures.
The Great Sun Formula assisted the Qi, blood, and mana to circulate within Su Mo's entire body. Su Mo then fully unleashed the power of the Innate Saint-like Physique and the power of pure Yang energy.
At this moment, an intense golden light emitted from Su Mo's body. He floated in the air, resembling a miniature sun.
At this moment, the Hornless Ice Dragon village was split into worlds of Ice and fire. One side was scorching hot as steam appeared, while the other was frigid, as frost covered the ground.
"Is this the power of a God? He's using his magical powers to bring about changes in the weather!" Yu Yuanjia said as he hid far away. He was shocked and afraid that he would be affected by these changes.
"Come on, no matter how many techniques you throw at me, I will blow them away with just a single punch," Su Mo said as he stared at Hornless Dragon.
At this moment, zeal and confidence filled Su Mo's heart.
"Release!"
Nine azure sword-shaped silhouettes shot toward Su Mo.
Su Mo did not dodge or brace for impact. Instead, he waved his fist and charged forward.
"Indra's Demon-breaking Fist!"
This was the first technique that Su Mo had obtained from the grand library, and after practicing it for a short while, Su Mo had finally perfected it.
Following this, the muscles all over Su Mo's body began to bulge, and with the golden light radiating from his body, Su Mo resembled the angry Indra.
Su Mo's fist technique and the nine azure sword-shaped silhouettes collided, and for a moment, Hornless Dragon and Su Mo were in a stalemate.
"Break!"
The veins on Su Mo's forehead bulged. With a loud shout, the nine azure sword-shaped silhouettes shattered. But before Su Mo could take a breath, the sound of the air splitting rang in his ears, and Su Mo subconsciously dodged.
A freezing light flashed, and a few strands of Su Mo's hair floated in the air.
"That was close!"
Su Mo was glad that he reacted quickly, or else Hornless Dragon would have already killed him.
"Good reaction, Su Mo! Ice Moon Sword!"
After saying that, Hornless Dragon held his long sword and immediately thrust forward.
Su Mo did not dare to be careless when he saw that Hornless Dragon had been enveloped in a moon-like light.
Su Mo steadied himself and exclaimed, "Dragon Fist!"
A dragon's roar echoed from Su Mo's fist. Then, Su Mo turned into a golden dragon and rushed toward Hornless Dragon.
The two collided in the air, causing a shockwave that shook even the enormous Hornless Ice Dragon Mountain. The shockwave also destroyed countless trees along its path.
"D*mn, you guys even hit me from so far away?" Yu Yuanjia exclaimed as he was tossed into the air by the shockwave.
Every cultivator on the floating island could feel the effects of this battle.
"Who's fighting? That was such a powerful attack!"
"Send someone to the Hornless Ice Dragon Village to investigate!"
"Did someone finally dare to challenge that madman, Hornless Dragon?"
What is Hornless Dragon up to this time?"
…
The other clans quickly reacted and decided to send their disciples to the Hornless Ice Dragon Village to gather information on the battle.
The violent impact separated Su Mo and Hornless Dragon, but neither spoke this time. The two cultivators continuously moved like lightning as they fiercely collided in the air, constantly slashing and punching each other, consuming their energy.
As the fight went on, Hornless Dragon became increasingly frightened. He realized that the young man in front of him was evenly matching his strength. He also realized that he could barely keep up with Su Mo's speed.
If it weren't for Hornless Dragon's hundred years of battle experience, he wouldn't have been able to keep up with Su Mo.
Meanwhile, Su Mo was also surprised that Hornless Dragon could keep up with his speed. But this blitz-style battle was Su Mo's favorite fighting style because he possessed the fastest mantra.
Furthermore, his opponent actually managed to keep up with him.
After a long while, the two separated again. Only this time, the two were out of breath. The long, high-intensity battle was somewhat unbearable for the two cultivators.
Su Mo's robe was filled with holes, and scars covered his body. Hornless Dragon was also battered and bruised because he had taken more than ten punches from Su Mo.
Hornless Dragon's face was swollen and bruised. However, if not for his excellent defense formation, Hornless Dragon's head might have already exploded.
"You're not half bad, young man. You're the second person besides Li Jianting to make me feel this excited," Hornless Dragon said as excitement filled his eyes.
"You think you're qualified to be the second strongest person on the floating island?" Su Mo said with a sneer.
"Hahaha! I commend your boldness, young man. I was just warming up! Do you honestly think I'm a one-trick pony?" The Ice Dragon said with a laugh.
"You should just use every trick you have!" Su Mo said as he secretly studied Hornless Dragon.
"Then you should take a good look at this!"
