　　Even on the Heavenly Demon battlefield, losing ninety saber cultivators at once would be a huge loss.
　　But the problem was that if they really encountered a demonic cultivator like Li Yezhu, they would have to make such a choice.
　　“I originally thought that this saber strike from Senior Saber Slave could make Li Yezhu’s injury even worse, but now it seems that at most it can destroy eleven or twelve of Li Yezhu’s substitutes. Next, Xu Taiping will probably have a tough battle.”
　　The old palace master muttered with a serious tone.
　　Li Yezhu still has seventeen or eighteen substitute puppets left. Xu Taiping will have to fight him for at least two to three more rounds. During this process, once he fails to withstand Li Yezhu’s offensive, the situation will be reversed instantly.
　　“This battle seems to be evenly matched, but in fact it is entirely due to Senior Dao Nu. It is because of his presence as the protector that Li Yezhu is willing to exchange blows with Xu Taiping like this.”
　　Yun Shiliu nodded and said.
　　“Boom！ …”
　　And just when the two thought that the saber momentum of Dao Nu had been exhausted and could no longer pose a threat to Li Yezhu, an empty small boat was suddenly pushed out of the gate by the waves.
Appearing together with this small boat were the white skeletons following in the water behind it. These Youdaoplaceholder0 keep struggling to climb the small boat, but every time they were about to climb up they would be slapped away by the suddenly rising waves.
Could this be the legendary ferry boat that extradites the a group of ghosts into hell? “!”
　　After seeing clearly the mysterious runes engraved on the small boat, Yun Shiliu’s beautiful eyes widened and she said in astonishment.
Although it was the first time she had seen the second form of the Killing Saber, Du Shen, she had heard of this ancient legendary ferry boat that extradited the a group of ghosts across the Yellow Spring and into that hellish Yellow Spring Ferry Boat.
　　In the legend, once this small boat appears in a river, all the crew members on the ships that pass by its side will suddenly die.
　　Even in the ancient era when there were gods everywhere, once this Huangquan Ferry Boat appeared, there would still be corpses all over the place. Even some gods with insufficient strength could only obediently board the boat.
　　”So the word ‘ferry’ in the Ferry God style of the Killing Life Knife means this. To be able to summon this small boat, no wonder this knife slave dares to say that when encountering a god, he will ferry the god, and when encountering a demon, he will ferry the demon…”
The old Palace of the Three Sovereigns Dao palace also had a look of astonishment on his face.
　　Because even he had only heard a little about the ‘Ferry God’ style of this Killing Life Knife, and never expected that it could actually summon the legendary Huangquan Ferry Boat.
　　”However, the aura of this ferry boat is not very strong. It is most likely just an illusory shadow left by that small boat in the human world in ancient times, and it is not even complete. Otherwise, not to mention those people in the Mysterious Wilderness Tower, I’m afraid even we onlookers would have our souls affected by it.”
　　Yun Shiliu thought for a while, and then stared at the spiritual mirror in front of her, saying without blinking.
“That’s true.” The old slave nodded. “The cultivation base of the knife slave is suppressed by the Mysterious Wilderness Tower, and the ferry boat he summons should only be able to ferry those cultivators and demons whose strength is equivalent to below the Transforming Realm.”
　　”Bang, bang bang bang…”
　　Just as the two were speaking, with the appearance of this Huangquan Ferry Boat, each of the substitute clones that Li Yezhu had hidden within the army formation once again began to continuously burst apart one after another.
　　In just an instant, Li Yezhu had lost six more clones.
　　Seeing that the Huangquan Ferry Boat was getting closer and closer to himself, Li Yezhu, who had a calm expression on his face at first, now also had a panicked look on his face.
　　“Bang, bang！”
With the sound of another two harsh bursting sounds, Li Yezhu’s substitute clones were suddenly left with only ten.
　　And at this time, the distance between the ancient small boat and Li Yezhu was already less than ten zhang.
As if it was instinct, the fluctuations of Li Yezhu’s aura soared and the spider demon transformed by the fighting intent above his head wrapped layer after layer of spider silk around his body, as if to isolate his entire person from this heaven and earth.
　　“This is the Mysterious Desolation Tower. Although it is not certain that one will die after boarding the boat, I always feel that this small boat will take away something from me.”
　　As the Huangquan Ferry Boat got closer and closer, this bad thought in Li Yezhu’s heart became stronger and stronger.
　　“Bang！”
　　At this time, among the corpse ghost army formation below, another substitute clone of Li Yezhu exploded into a mass of minced meat.
　　“There are only nine substitute clones left.”
　　Li Yezhu furrowed his brows and began to consider in his heart whether to immediately exit the Mysterious Desolation Tower to preserve his strength or take a gamble.
　　Although the Saber Slave is strong, with the Mysterious Desolation Tower restricting his cultivation and the identity of the Dao Protector, this strike of his shouldn’t be this powerful.
　　Li Yezhu’s brows tightened, and finally he made a decision – to take a gamble.
　　“Bang,　bang,　bang…”
　　Just the moment after he made the decision, the distance between that Yellow Spring Ferry Boat and him was suddenly shortened by two or three zhang again, and at the same time, the nine substitute puppets he originally had left were reduced by four more.
　　Li Yezhu’s gaze suddenly turned cold, and the hand holding the saber became even tighter.
　　“Bang！”
　　“Bang！”
　　“Bang！”
　　With another three cracking sounds, Li Yezhu’s substitute puppet clones were suddenly left with only the last two.
　　This time, even though Li Yezhu’s state of mind was firm, it still wavered.
　　“Retreat…”
　　Finally, he still decided not to gamble. After all, what was in front of him was the Yellow Spring Ferry Boat, an existence that even the Nine Abyss Demonic Gods had to dread.
　　“Boom！…
　　But just as Li Yezhu was about to give up the capital city behind him and exit the Mysterious Desolation Tower, the Yellow Spring Ferry Boat in front of him, and the mighty saber qi waves, vanished into thin air with a deafening cracking sound.
　　“Sure enough, you, Saber Slave, were also barely holding on！”
　　After confirming that the saber energy of Saber Slave had been exhausted, a cold smile suddenly appeared on Li Yezhu’s gloomy face that seemed to be able to drip water.
　　“Since this saber strike didn’t kill me, then with my next saber strike, I will not only expel you, Xu Taiping, from the Mysterious Desolation Pagoda, but also sever your path of saber cultivation！”
　　Li Yezhu raised his head and looked at Xu Taiping standing behind Saber Slave, with cold and sharp glimmers shooting out from his eyes.
　　……
　　“What a pity. Just two more substitute clones and we could have expelled this Li Yezhu from the Mysterious Desolation Pagoda and even seriously injured him.”
　　In the Three Sovereigns Dao Palace, Yun Shiliu said with a regretful expression.
　　“Li Yezhu’s power of the demonic seed can restore his strength by borrowing the battle intent of the military formation, and he also has two substitute clones. Next, if he strikes with the saber, even if Xu Taiping takes it, he can still use the substitute clones to block the saber energy of Senior Saber Slave and continue to strike at Xu Taiping.”
　　The old palace master muttered as he looked at the spiritual mirror in front of him.
　　“This Li Yezhu, since he has substitute puppet clones, why didn’t he use them at the beginning？”
　　Yun Shiliu asked curiously.
　　“To create substitute clones, one needs enough battle intent and time. Li Yezhu couldn’t use them from the beginning.”
　　The old palace master explained.
　　Yun Shiliu nodded. Besides feeling relieved, there was a thick worried look in her eyes when she looked at Xu Taiping.
　　“Old palace master, what do you think is the chance of victory for Xu Taiping？”
　　Yun Shiliu couldn’t help but ask again.
　　The old palace master thought for a while, and then said with a solemn expression：
　　“Unless he can use the Killing Saber Crossing the God Style next and also summon the Huangquan Ferry Boat, otherwise the chance of winning is less than 20%.”
Upon hearing this, Yun Shiliu’s eyes immediately dimmed, and then she shook her head helplessly and said:
　　“That’s impossible.”
　　……
　　“Xu Taiping！”
　　However, compared to Yun Shiliu and the others watching the battle in front of the spirit mirror, the saber slave whose saber momentum was broken did not show any worried or nervous expression.
　　“Senior　Saber　Slave.”
　　Xu Taiping flew and landed beside the saber slave.
　　The saber slave looked at Xu Taiping, and then turned his head to look at Li Yezhu who was using the battle array’s battle intent to restore his strength, and then smiled and asked Xu Taiping：
　　“Just now, did you see that move clearly？”
　　“I saw it clearly.” Xu Taiping nodded.
　　“How many percent have you learned？” The saber slave asked again.
　　“Six… seven percent！” Xu Taiping thought seriously for a while, and then said very affirmatively.
Upon hearing this, the saber slave’s mouth immediately raised, and then he patted Xu Taiping’s shoulder and said:
　　“Since that’s the case, then I won’t take action anymore. You go and kill that Li Yezhu and then break this stinky Ghost Fang Capital City.”
