Chapter 73: Dragon-Hunting Sword Lance
Amidst endless explosions and impacts, Joshua's figure appeared before Loranda's eyes.
At this moment, Joshua was enveloped in black-red battle qi, forming an armor-like shape, with phantoms of blades and broken bones appearing within it. Blood-red patterns covered the black battle qi armor, both bloody and terrifying, yet due to the radiance of the Azure Orb within, it appeared unexpectedly sacred. His hair... if he didn't act immediately, he would surely die.
But even so, Joshua tightly gripped the greatsword and giant axe in his hands. Though lightning flashed and high heat sufficient to melt steel spread, the battle qi covering these two weapons remained as solid as ever, undamaged. A voice tinged with a hint of satisfaction emerged from the endless arcs of electricity.
"Occasionally, I too want to wield a weapon with both hands!"
A corner of the battle qi-forged solid helmet was shattered by the electric light, revealing the crimson eyes behind it. Joshua's voice was somewhat muffled by the obstruction, but it couldn't suppress the satisfaction behind it: "Now, I'll test it on you!"
With that, he raised the giant sword and great axe in his hands. The black tattoos on the backs of his hands twisted and contorted like living things, while the souls of Ying and Lin directly left their two Divine Mechanisms. The two floated beside Joshua with bewildered expressions, watching helplessly as the material of their bodies gradually became crystalline, like crystal, and then were merged together by the warrior. They exclaimed in disbelief inwardly, but somehow felt this wasn't unacceptable.
Divine Mechanisms were originally universal weapons forged from the core crystals of Wild Gods as raw materials. Their form depended on the user's will. Generally speaking, once the form was determined, a Divine Mechanism wouldn't change its shape.
But that was just common sense. Facing Joshua, this rule had to step aside!
As the first person to max out the Divine Mechanization skill, the warrior realized that in his full-powered state, he could freely determine the form of his Divine Mechanisms—whether bow or hammer, shield or spear, even armor. And now, he was going to transform the giant sword and great axe in his hands, following his own will, into a new weapon!
Amidst the endless flashing lightning, the silver greatsword and black giant axe slowly merged, then transformed into an extremely ferocious gray weapon. It resembled a cross-spear, yet was more ancient. The flat, sharp spearhead extended backward and enlarged, at the end forming a rough axe-like structure, like a vicious dragon with sharp fangs and a sturdy body, emitting a silent threat.
Its name: Dragon-Hunting Sword Lance!
"Let's see if you can stop this thrust!"
With the formation of this sword lance, the heavenly punishment lightning completely dissipated. The warrior gripped this enormous sword lance, stepping on the air. He let out a bold laugh, slightly bending his knees in midair to gather strength. Then, Joshua concentrated all his power to the extreme and abruptly hurled the lance in his hand toward the fortress in the sky!
The moment the newly born Dragon-Hunting Sword Lance left his hand, it immediately produced a piercing sonic boom in the air. Faintly, one could hear the helpless sighs and laments of the young boy and girl. The rapidly flying sword lance even friction-ignited the air, and with the sharp howl of breaking the sound barrier, flames suddenly expanded, forming rapidly expanding rings of fire.
