A Man Like None Other

Chapter 4486

Chapter 4486 Burning Oneself
This is it. After this, no matter the outcome, I will relinquish control to the Vermilion Demon Lord.
“Kid, you expect me to step in when you’re already knocking on death’s door? How generous of you. But I must decline. If I unleashed even a fraction of my power in your current state, your body would crumble to dust.” The Vermillion Demon Lord, knowing what Kai was thinking, spoke up.
With no avenue for escape and his adversaries closing in fast, Kai gritted his teeth and made his move.
“Assembly of the Swords!” he roared, slashing his blade through the air with unwavering resolve.
The Dragonslayer Sword hummed with ancient power as Kai unleashed the ultimate skill of the Ten Thousand Sword Sect. The void itself seemed to rend open, a jagged tear forming in its fabric as the heavens and earth trembled under the immense force. The ripple of energy was so profound that even cultivators hundreds of kilometers away paused, startled by the disturbance.
From the skies above, countless dazzling sword lights cascaded like a meteor shower, surging toward Milton and Cayan from every direction, leaving them with nowhere to run.

Kai’s body staggered backward under the relentless recoil of the unleashed sword aura. Similarly, Milton and Cayan were forced into retreat, battered by the ceaseless barrage of sword energy. They hastily conjured shield after shield to fend off the attack.
Despite their defenses, both suffered numerous wounds. While none of the injuries were fatal, it was shocking that a mere Seventh Level Tribulator could injure not one but two Ultimate Realm Level Four cultivators.
At that moment, Kai was at his weakest, his energy utterly depleted. The devastating sword strike he had unleashed moments earlier had drained nearly every ounce of strength from his body. He leaned heavily on the Dragonslayer Sword, using it as a crutch to keep himself upright. Blood flowed freely from numerous wounds, staining the ground beneath him.
Were it not for Kai’s exceptional physique and resilience, the sheer force of that attack might have backfired entirely, leaving him in a far more perilous state.
The idea of injuring two Ultimate Realm Level Four cultivators with a single sword strike was something Kai could scarcely have dared to imagine. It was a feat born not of confidence, but of sheer desperation. Relying solely on his unwavering resolve to fight to the bitter end, Kai had poured every ounce of his remaining strength into that final strike.
Though both Milton and Cayan were injured, their wounds were far from fatal. However, the backlash Kai endured from the strike nearly sent him into unconsciousness. In his weakened state, even if the Vermilion Demon Lord attempted to take control, it seemed unlikely to be of any use.
With the slightest exertion of force from the Vermilion Demon Lord, Kai’s body would be utterly destroyed.
“This guy’s finished.” Cayan sneered. “We don’t even need to lift a finger; he’ll probably drop dead on his own.”
“True,” Milton agreed, his voice cold. “The kid’s reached the end of his rope. But the fact that he managed to withstand our attacks and still hurt us—he’s got enough to boast about when he’s gone.”
As Milton spoke, he took slow, deliberate steps toward Kai. In their eyes, Kai was no more than a lamb waiting to be slaughtered.
“Kid, run away…” The Vermilion Demon Lord urged, sensing the inevitable.
Kai let out a sudden, dry chuckle. “Run? There’s no escaping today.”
