The battle raged on.
Surrounding Ye Wushuang were more than a dozen warriors at the sixth to ninth levels of the Tiangang Realm. These individuals, mostly in their thirties and forties, possessed abundant combat experience and precise control over their Tiangang energy. Yet, despite their numbers and skills, they found themselves utterly ineffective against Ye Wushuang.
With just one person, one sword, and one sword technique, Ye Wushuang wielded the Tianya Sword and the Myriad Swords Return to the Origin Technique. Though this technique consisted of only four forms, in Ye Wushuang’s hands, it displayed endless variations. What was even more terrifying was that, despite having only five layers of Tiangang energy, the explosive power he unleashed was comparable to that of eight or nine layers. This was something even the most exceptional geniuses could hardly achieve, yet Ye Wushuang had managed it.
During the final half-month of the Hundred Kingdoms Martial Contest, Ye Wushuang, along with Qing Shiyu, Li Wenbo, and a few others, had gone on a rampage in the Youlong Mountains, hunting spiritual beasts to strengthen their self-generated Tiangang energy. In that last half-month, Ye Wushuang had only ascended one level in his cultivation. However, with the help of the exquisite spiritual pills he had taken from the geniuses he had slain, and the power of the dragon’s tongue orchid, his Tiangang energy had increased several times over, reaching an unprecedented peak. The idea of a fifth-layer warrior taking on a ninth-layer warrior was no longer a dream. Had it not been for the absolute suppression of Tiangang energy by the Wufa power, Ye Wushuang could have even challenged those at the Wufa Realm.
Boom…
A deafening roar erupted from the earth. Yun Xingjian looked down and nearly popped his eyes out in astonishment. “This little rascal…”
On the ground, more than forty Tiangang warriors, including over a dozen high-level ones, were attacking Ye Wushuang. Already, seven or eight of them had lost limbs or even their lives—individuals at the seventh, eighth, and ninth levels of the Tiangang Realm. Just three months ago, when Ye Wushuang left the Qingyun Empire, he was barely at the late Yuanfu Realm. Now, he had reached the fifth level of the Tiangang Realm, an astonishing leap in cultivation. But what was even more shocking was his mastery of his power. This guy was truly not human.
Five hundred years ago, the Ye Clan had a Ye Wentian. Five hundred years later, they had a Ye Wushuang. It seemed that fate had not forsaken the Ye Clan after all!
“Kill! Kill! Kill!”
A fierce cry echoed through the air.
Suddenly, the spiritual energy within Ye Wushuang roared incessantly. The effects of refining several dragon’s tongue orchids in the last half-month manifested once again. A sixth layer of Tiangang energy began to condense on his body.
The sixth level of the Tiangang Realm!
Damn it!
Yun Xingjian felt like cursing. Breaking through during a battle? Wasn’t that just playing with death? But judging by Ye Wushuang’s current demeanor, this was definitely not his first time breaking through during a fight. With the sixth layer of Tiangang energy now condensed on his body, Ye Wushuang struck again with his sword, combined with the power of the Tai Xu Sword Qi, making him even more formidable. Each sword strike claimed the life of a warrior at the sixth or seventh level of the Tiangang Realm. As for those at the eighth and ninth levels, if one strike wasn’t enough, another would do.
Soon, the Tiangang warriors of the Daqian Empire on the ground were routed. It wasn’t forty people surrounding Ye Wushuang; it was Ye Wushuang surrounding and slaughtering forty people.
Boom…
When the last ninth-level Tiangang warrior fell, the Tianya Sword dripped with blood. Ye Wushuang’s white robe was now stained red. Inside the second level of the Nine-Levels Spirit-Taming Pagoda, the Qianyuan Ding gleefully absorbed the blood and energy, its surface becoming clearer and brighter.
However, as the emperor of the Daqian Empire, Qian Benkun’s eyes were filled with horror. Dead! All dead! The dozens of Tiangang warriors he had brought out had all perished at the hands of Ye Wushuang.
“Ye Wushuang!”
Qian Benkun’s gaze fixed on the young man on the ground, filled with malice. “I will make you die! I will make you die!”
With a wave of his hand, Qian Benkun led the remaining five Wufa Realm warriors and retreated. One Yun Xingjian and a Wufa Realm initial-level spiritual beast were enough to fight them to a draw! This time, they couldn’t kill Ye Wushuang. On the contrary, if they fought too fiercely and managed to kill Ye Wushuang, others would come and reap the benefits.
Qian Benkun’s heart was filled with bitter resentment, but he knew when to cut his losses. The six Wufa Realm warriors reluctantly departed.
Yun Xingjian landed at this moment and looked at Ye Wushuang, who had reached the sixth level of the Tiangang Realm. He said helplessly, “You guy… you’re terrifying.”
Chi Yuan transformed into a three-zhang-tall figure, landing beside Ye Wushuang and nuzzling him affectionately with his large head. “It’s great that you’re safe, my lord,” a voice echoed in Ye Wushuang’s mind.
Ye Wushuang replied, “Not only am I fine, but I’ve also obtained the Jiuku Tiancan Pill. Chi Xuan will be fine.”
Upon hearing this, Chi Yuan’s eyes glistened with tears. The couple had a deep bond. Over the years, seeing Chi Xuan suffer from the severe poison and constantly on the brink of death, Chi Yuan had no other choice but to use his life essence to prolong her lifespan. But now, Lord Ye had returned, reborn!
