Seeing Ye Xuan ignite his soul, the Scholar Sage’s brows furrowed tightly!
Soul ignition!
After Ye Xuan chose to burn his soul, he found Ye Xuan’s aura surging wildly, now unnaturally intense!
At that moment, Ye Xuan suddenly vanished from his spot.
Swish!
A blood-red sword light slashed towards the Scholar Sage.
The Scholar Sage clenched his right fist tightly, then unleashed a punch, a terrifying force pouring from his fist.
Boom!
A burst of sword light shattered, and the Scholar Sage was forced back tens of thousands of feet!
Ye Xuan was also knocked back tens of thousands of feet, but the next moment, he charged at the Scholar Sage again.
In the distance, the Scholar Sage glanced at his right hand, where a deep sword mark marred his fist.
Ye Xuan had actually wounded him!
A trace of ferocity flashed in the Scholar Sage’s eyes. The next moment, he vanished, his fist aiming straight for Ye Xuan’s head!
As the fist reached Ye Xuan’s face, he didn’t dodge, instead swinging his sword at the Scholar Sage’s throat!
Boom!
Swish!
Ye Xuan retreated tens of thousands of feet in an instant, his body exploding upon stopping!
In the distance, the Scholar Sage’s throat split open, blood spraying, and his body shattered instantly!
Both their bodies broke apart simultaneously!
The Scholar Sage’s face was grim beyond measure!
He had chosen to trade body for body, believing Ye Xuan’s sword couldn’t breach his flesh, but he underestimated the blood-red sword in Ye Xuan’s hand!
Far off, Ye Xuan’s soul continued to burn, his aura still surging wildly.
Beyond his burning soul, his bloodline power was endlessly fueling him!
This was why he could now fight an Immortal of Time!
On the other side, the Scholar Sage slowly clenched his right hand, his body beginning to reform.
At that moment, Ye Xuan vanished again.
Swish!
A blood-red sword light tore through the sky!
In the distance, ferocity flashed in the Scholar Sage’s eyes. He charged forward, a terrifying shockwave ripping through space-time, meeting the sword light head-on.
No retreat!
As an Immortal of Time, he had no reason to back down from Ye Xuan!
Boom!
In the distant space-time, a blood-red sword light and a terrifying force erupted, instantly erasing millions of feet of surrounding space-time, leaving a pitch-black void!
In that void, two figures retreated wildly!
It was Ye Xuan and the Scholar Sage!
As Ye Xuan stopped, his eyes slowly closed. The next moment, a sword appeared above the Scholar Sage’s head.
Slashing the Future!
The sudden sword made the Scholar Sage’s face change slightly, but he reacted swiftly, dodging with a sidestep. The sword missed, vanishing into the starry expanse! But the next moment, hundreds of swords appeared around him!
The Scholar Sage’s face changed drastically!
These hundreds of swords weren’t from the same moment, each arriving slightly later than the last!
Slashing the Future!
Shocked, the Scholar Sage didn’t dare underestimate it. He raised both hands, and a thick ancient book flew from his body. Purple light poured from it, and mysterious, eerie voices, ancient as if from eons past, echoed around.
Boom, boom, boom…
Explosions rang out around the Scholar Sage!
At that moment, Ye Xuan vanished again.
The Scholar Sage’s pupils shrank. He charged forward, throwing a punch!
Head-on again!
Boom!
With a deafening explosion, Ye Xuan was pushed back tens of thousands of feet, but almost instantly, dozens of sword lights engulfed the Scholar Sage.
Moments later, a terrifying force erupted from the sword lights, annihilating them. The Scholar Sage, holding the ancient book, stepped out, his body bearing over a dozen sword marks, one on his face nearly tearing it apart.
Seeing this, the Calamity Lord and Master Yun nearby grew gravely solemn!
They hadn’t expected Ye Xuan to fight the Scholar Sage to this extent!
Terrifying!
Beside the Calamity Lord, Master Yun said gravely, “He’s burning himself out!”
The Calamity Lord nodded.
They knew Ye Xuan’s strength came from a secret technique, forcibly overdrawing his power. At most, he had a quarter of an hour before he’d consume himself!
In the distance, the Scholar Sage glared at Ye Xuan. He opened his ancient book, and a shadow shot out, charging at Ye Xuan.
Swish!
A tearing sound echoed!
Ye Xuan opened his eyes, a sea of blood in his gaze. He swung his sword fiercely.
Swish!
Boom!
With a tearing sound and an explosion, Ye Xuan was forced back tens of thousands of feet by the shadow. The shadow charged again, and the Scholar Sage vanished simultaneously.
At that moment, Ye Xuan looked up, and the power of time within a million feet gathered around him!
Drawing on the River of Time!
Ye Xuan swung his sword!
Sword-Drawn Life-or-Death!
This strike layered fifteen thousand slashes!
One swing, and the surrounding star river was annihilated!
Boom!
The shadow was shattered by Ye Xuan’s strike, and the Scholar Sage, charging at him, was sent flying tens of thousands of feet. As he stopped, Ye Xuan appeared before him, swinging again.
Sword-Drawn Life-or-Death!
Boom!
A wave of sword light engulfed the Scholar Sage!
Boom!
With a earth-shaking explosion, the Scholar Sage was blasted back, and almost instantly, a blood-red sword flew to him.
Boom!
The sword light shattered, and the Scholar Sage was forced back again, his soul now visibly dim!
Seeing this, the Calamity Lord and others’ faces changed drastically!
Danger!
The Calamity Lord moved to act, but Master Yun stopped him, whispering, “Only the Scholar Sage can match him now. If we act, we’re courting death.”
The Calamity Lord fell silent.
Whether he liked it or not, he had to admit Ye Xuan’s strength had reached the Immortal of Time level. Anyone below that was no match!
In the distance, after being pushed back, the Scholar Sage opened his book. A terrifying force erupted, and countless ancient words shot into the starry sky, forming a colossal sky-piercing sword containing immense power!
Ferocity flashed in the Scholar Sage’s eyes. He charged, the giant sword slashing down at Ye Xuan.
Below, Ye Xuan gripped his blood sword tightly, his soul growing fainter. In less than half a quarter, he’d vanish!
The Scholar Sage clearly wasn’t waiting.
Under everyone’s gaze, the giant sword swept from the stars, reaching Ye Xuan’s head. Shockingly, Ye Xuan didn’t dodge, letting the sword sink into him.
Everyone froze!
Boom!
A terrifying force erupted from Ye Xuan, instantly blasting the Scholar Sage, who had just reached him, tens of thousands of feet back!
Boom!
When the Scholar Sage stopped, he stared at Ye Xuan, whose aura was surging wildly, his eyes full of disbelief, “This…”
Not just him, everyone was stunned.
What was happening?
Was he devouring the giant sword?
“Impossible!”
The Scholar Sage stared at Ye Xuan, eyes full of disbelief, “You… it’s absolutely impossible…”
At that moment, Ye Xuan opened his eyes. His fading soul began to solidify, and his aura surged even more.
Ye Xuan vanished.
Swish!
A blood sword appeared above the Scholar Sage!
His face changed drastically. He raised his hand, and the ancient book flew up, forming a shield above him.
Boom!
One strike, and the book trembled, the force pushing the Scholar Sage back tens of thousands of feet. Ye Xuan swept his sword, sending the thick book flying to Shi Tian.
Shi Tian froze, then quickly took the book.
Ye Xuan’s mind had cleared slightly, the giant sword’s energy pushing him toward a breakthrough.
He looked at the Scholar Sage, whose face was grim beyond measure, “How can you devour my divine sword book! How!”
Ye Xuan didn’t answer. He vanished, and the Scholar Sage’s pupils shrank. His soul faded, and he retreated tens of thousands of feet!
No more head-on clashes!
He realized Ye Xuan’s power was now several times stronger, too much even for his book, let alone his soul form!
Far off, Ye Xuan vanished again, and the Scholar Sage retreated further, keeping distance!
Ye Xuan’s eyes closed slowly!
In the distance, the Scholar Sage’s eyes narrowed. Suddenly, he looked up, and the sky split open. A golden light swept down from the starry depths.
Within it, a middle-aged man stepped out!
An Immortal of Time!
Seeing him, the Scholar Sage relaxed, then looked at Ye Xuan, “My people are here!”
A feral grin spread, “What’s the point of fighting alone? This is an era of numbers!”
“Is it?”
From the endless starry depths, a cold voice echoed, “Outnumbering, is it?”
Hearing it, Ye Xuan’s body trembled slightly…
