“You want to kill me? All of you will die today!” said Xiang Shaoyun as his scarlet eyes erupted with a berserk ruthlessness. The Extreme Chill Curved Sword appeared in his hand. This so-called Extreme Chill Curved Sword was none other than the Yin Mother Sword that he had been nourishing in his astral cosmos sea. As soon as he finished his words, he swung the sword at the lotus device.
Instantly, its sword ray sliced through space and shattered all ice in its way. The lotus petals shattered one after another, unable to stop the sword ray’s advance. Dong Lian and Han Mei paled from fright. They could sense just how terrifying the slash was. It was as though a Great Saint was personally attacking, or perhaps this slash had reached the level of a God Realm cultivator.
Clank!
The sword struck the lotus device, instantly causing the device to dim in color. Next, its energy faded away, and numerous cracks appeared on the device. If it wasn’t for the fact that the device was only struck by a sword ray, it would have already shattered into pieces.
On the lotus chariot, Beiming Tianpeng exclaimed in alarm, “That bastard actually owns a god weapon?”
As the White Lotus Sect’s holy son, Beiming Tianpeng could utilize a god weapon due to his unique status. Not even someone like him could obtain an extra god weapon for his personal usage. Thus, his heart was filled with envy and greed when he saw that Xiang Shaoyun could easily take out a god weapon.
With Xiang Shaoyun’s strength and his weapon, who among them could be his match? Not to forget, they hadn’t even defeated the nether yin devils he had summoned. If this continued, it was only a matter of time before all of them perished.
“Everyone, ignore the nether yin devils and focus on the devil!” commanded Beiming Tianpeng.
Those on their side had been killed one after another, while Xiang Shaoyun was still completely unharmed. That was a fatal blow to their confidence. Fortunately, the Emotionless Sword had successfully killed one of the nether yin devils. As for the scholar, he had successfully gained the upper hand against the nether yin devil he faced. Victory didn’t seem too far away.
However, Madam Yu Huan was having a hard time against her opponent. As for the fourth nether yin devil, it was trapped after eight Saints worked together. So long as the Emotionless Sword made a move, they would be able to kill the nether yin devils one by one.
However, Lei Wuqing did not do so. The moment Xiang Shaoyun unleashed that one sword strike, his eyes became filled with greed. He focused only on Xiang Shaoyun, but he remained still, seemingly waiting for the perfect opportunity to strike.
Lei Wuqing might be emotionless, but he wasn’t stupid. He knew what the holy son was planning. He was willing to help in this operation, but he was definitely unwilling to become someone’s puppet.
After defeating the lotus device with one slash, Xiang Shaoyun looked at Beiming Tianpeng. Like a furious dragon, he charged toward Beiming Tianpeng and swung his sword at the lotus chariot.
Beiming Tianpeng’s senses were extremely sharp. The moment he sensed Xiang Shaoyun’s approach, he channeled his energy into the chariot, causing an energy lotus to take form and wrap around the chariot. The energy lotus was the defensive barrier exclusive to the chariot.
“Not even a Great Saint can break this chariot’s defenses! What can you do against me?” said Beiming Tianpeng.
Yin Sword Technique, first stance!
The Yin Mother Sword in Xiang Shaoyun’s hand was a top-tier weapon. It was also the companion weapon to the Yin Sword Technique. As Xiang Shaoyun unleashed the first stance with the sword, it was as though the nether world had appeared. The entire world turned dark while the sun lost its color.
The terrifying sword ray clashed against the chariot, sending chunks of ice flying everywhere. Layer upon layer of lotus petals was shattered while the chariot cracked and swayed. Atop the chariot, Beiming Tianpeng’s expression turned unsightly. When he sensed how terrifying the sword was, he became fearful that the chariot would really be destroyed.
After all, the chariot itself was also a god-grade item. If even the chariot couldn’t stop Xiang Shaoyun, who among them could hope to stop Xiang Shaoyun’s advance? Fortunately for Beiming Tianpeng, Xiang Shaoyun had not utilized the Yin Mother Sword’s full strength. His slash had only broken through the chariot’s defenses and caused the chariot to nearly break, but the chariot had ultimately survived the slash.
However, it did not seem likely that the chariot would last if Xiang Shaoyun swung his sword at the chariot a couple more times. Not even Beiming Tianpeng could maintain his calm anymore. He aimed his mirror at Xiang Shaoyun and sent a thick ray of light shooting toward Xiang Shaoyun, trying to trap Xiang Shaoyun in an illusion.
Mirror Illusion Domain!
This was an illusion that could cause one to temporarily lose one’s sense of direction and trap one in a small area. Not even a Great Saint could easily break free of this illusion. Anyone trapped within would be akin to a lamb waiting for slaughter.
“However strong you are, this is where you die!” said Beiming Tianpeng coldly as the Celestial Peng Ice Sword appeared in his hand. With the sword, he stabbed toward Xiang Shaoyun.
Celestial Peng’s Ice Feather Sword!
Instantly, countless ice feathers shot out, bringing with them the might of a late-stage Saint. The prowess behind this technique proved Beiming Tianpeng’s worth as the number two genius of the Northern Border. With this technique, he could hardly find a match among his peers.
Unlike Beiming Tianpeng’s expectation, Xiang Shaoyun wasn’t completely trapped in the illusion. With the sharp senses of his Imperial Nether Domain, he was able to immediately realize that he had fallen into a land of illusion and that Beiming Tianpeng’s attack was coming for him.
Yin Sword Technique, second stance!
Enveloped in thick devilish energy, Xiang Shaoyun was emanating a thick killing intent. Thus, the might of his Yin Sword Technique became even scarier. That one slash of his seemed capable of cutting everything in existence, leaving only death and despair behind.
If this was any other time, Xiang Shaoyun would have a hard time utilizing the Yin Mother Sword repeatedly. Now that he was a Devil Saint, after using the devil core, he had a bountiful supply of devilish energy, allowing him to utilize the Yin Sword Technique repeatedly.
As the two different sword techniques collided, the countless ice feathers shattered, completely incomparable to the Yin Sword Technique. The one-sided collision was due to the superiority of Xiang Shaoyun’s weapon since the two were almost evenly matched in terms of pure combat strength.
However, Beiming Tianpeng was able to block Xiang Shaoyun’s sword once again with his lotus chariot. Despite not having suffered any injuries, the massive impact from the collision had still filled him with fear.
“Why is he unaffected by the illusion?” Beiming Tianpeng was panicking.
With the mirror, he was confident he could kill any Saint he encountered. Thus, he was extremely unresigned when he saw Xiang Shaoyun so easily break free of his illusion.
Just as Xiang Shaoyun was about to reach the chariot, a terrifying sword ray suddenly shot toward Xiang Shaoyun.
