Chapter 792: 416
Blood light dazzled the eyes as an overwhelming aura suddenly enveloped the area, staining the domain in a bloody hue.
Xu Yan, who was cautiously investigating, abruptly changed in expression. The Yin Yang Undying Sword emerged, incessantly swirling as the blade's light surged forth and the Golden Giant Dragon roared.
Boom!
It seemed as though every trick had been used to block this sudden attack.
At the same time, his figure flew backward in an attempt to escape.
Pu!
At that moment, the sword light shattered, and so did the Golden Giant Dragon; all attacks were disintegrating. Xu Yan seemed to suffer a massive blow and, despite accelerating, spat out a mouthful of blood as his body was thrown back.
"Xu Yan, today is the day you die!"
Xuezhi Mo was exceedingly delighted at that moment, his figure streaking through the air as he pursued, with his Scarlet Long Knife bursting forth with fierce murderous intent in another slashing strike!
As for exploring the place of the Immortal Heavenly Venerable's demise, he chose not to pursue it any longer. If there were ambushes, his presence at this moment would have certainly provoked an attack against him.
To slaughter Xu Yan!
This was a once-in-a-millennium opportunity!
"Xuezhi Mo!"
Xu Yan's expression was incredibly somber as he madly swung his sword again and again, his retreating figure looking extremely awkward. He seemed desperately trying to flee and shake off the pursuit of Xuezhi Mo.
"If I cannot kill him this time, there will never be another chance!" Xuezhi Mo thought resolutely.
With his strength, he had only managed to entangle Xu Yan, preventing his escape, but had been unable to deliver a killing blow—what an extraordinary genius.
"What kind of Sword Dao is this? It's too powerful!"
Whether it was for the sake of their collaboration with Heavenly Slaughter Earth Shadow or for the Netherworld itself, such a peerless genius must die!
Otherwise, once he grew up, he would undoubtedly become a massive threat to the Netherworld!
"You can't escape!"
Xuezhi Mo was completely enveloped in blood light, with his scarlet knife's glow illuminating the sky, the aura of his power stirring the heavens and the earth.
Xu Yan was still retreating frantically, trying to escape. Sword wheels revolved around him, spinning ceaselessly, yet they seemed on the verge of collapsing as he desperately slashed out again and again.
"Where's Meng Chong? Did he flee?"
Xuezhi Mo sneered.
A surge of exhilaration at the prospect of killing an extraordinary genius welled up within him.
"Junior brother, don't worry about me, just run!" shouted Xu Yan.
In the midst of the battle, Xuezhi Mo saw a figure in the distance vanish in an instant—it was Meng Chong!
"After I kill you, Meng Chong won't last many more days either!"
Xuezhi Mo transformed into a streak of blood light, his speed explosively increasing as he moved to strike Xu Yan—his blow rupturing layers of sword light, as if the next moment would result in Xu Yan's demise!
Jiang Buping, hiding in ambush, couldn't help but admire inwardly; their senior brother truly deserved his status. His acting skills were far beyond his own!
Back then, to escape the Taikun Realm, he had feigned being a clueless fool, thinking his acting skills unmatched. Yet today, he realized that while he might be good at playing the fool, when it came to true acting, he was far from matching his senior brother.
"This is what it means to be a true Martial Artist, not just a brute!"
In that moment, he somewhat grasped the profound principles that their fourth senior brother had once mentioned, the teachings of their master—that a Martial Artist is not a brute.
The senior brother truly embodied the essence!
"Second senior brother may seem like a brute, but he too is adept at adapting to situations and deeply calculating," Jiang Buping mused with admiration, suspecting that perhaps only their third senior sister was the one with a simpler mind.
"No wonder third sister never ventured into the Martial Arts Realm. Master was probably worried about her, given her simple-mindedness!"
The figure that had fled earlier was a Divine Origin Avatar of their second senior brother. At such a distance, and amidst the heat of battle, how could Xuezhi Mo discern the truth?
Moreover, aside from being weaker, a Divine Origin Avatar was indistinguishable from the original, naturally leaving no room for suspicion.
Now, Xuezhi Mo's vigilance had waned, and there was no longer a need to fear Meng Chong's sudden attacks, since Meng Chong had already fled.
Boom!
"Xuezhi Mo, if you want to kill me, Xu Yan, you won't get off easily!"
Suddenly, Xu Yan stopped retreating, as if realizing escape was futile, prepared to fight to the death.
Hum!
The Yin Yang Undying Sword instantly grew larger, with the Mountain and River Physiognomy emerging and eighteen Golden Giant Dragons coiling around. In that instant, Xu Yan unleashed all his divine skills.
Xuezhi Mo's expression tightened, and he was secretly shocked at how powerful Xu Yan had become. Invincible below the Immortal Heavenly Venerable?!
"I admit, you're a genius, invincible below the Immortal Heavenly Venerable, but you're still far from injuring me!" Xuezhi Mo scoffed coldly, his blood energy billowing, suggesting an air of immortality that seemed one with the domain itself.
"Today, I will slay you. Taicang should not have a genius like you!"
Xuezhi Mo stepped forward, the blood light raging, and behind him emerged an intimidating trail of blood-colored blade light that stood between heaven and earth, exuding a fierce aura.
Xu Yan's gaze sharpened and he took a deep breath. A faint glow encircled him, and at that moment, he activated his Sacred Body. A vast radiance emerged from within him.
In the misty brilliance, a vision of mountains and rivers unfolded.
Xuezhi Mo was struck with awe. What kind of constitution was this?
His killing intent intensified while he pointed forward, the towering blood-colored blade light behind him slashed through the air towards Xu Yan.
A blood line appeared between the heavens and the earth, like a wound across the sky, slashing down toward Xu Yan from the firmament.
Ao!
Xu Yan struck out palm after palm, the True Dragon's Rage Divine Skill executing eighteen hits in succession. Immediately after, eighteen black sword lights appeared, their aura of annihilation vibrating the domain itself.
