The moment the sword pierced the forehead of the Person of Heavenly Mandate, Ye Guan suddenly sensed a breath of death.
Danger.
This feeling instantly spread from the depths of his heart, then coursed through his entire body.
Without any hesitation, Ye Guan immediately released the sword and retreated frantically.
At that instant, an illusory dharma form suddenly rose from within the Person of Heavenly Mandate’s body. This dharma form stood ten zhang tall, resembling the Person of Heavenly Mandate exactly. Around it swirled countless mysterious runes. Ye Guan’s sword was held in its right hand.
“Dharma body.”
At that moment, atop Guanxuan Mountain, Gu Chaoyuan’s face grew extremely grave.
Dharma body, also known as dharma form body, was an ancient divine ability.
He knew of it because he had once stayed at the main Guanxuan Academy and consulted ancient records.
He had not expected to witness this legendary dharma body here today.
Terrifying.
Gu Chaoyuan’s expression was utterly solemn. Worthy of the Person of Heavenly Mandate.
Let alone in this Central Divine Continent, even placed in the Guanxuan Universe, he would absolutely be top-tier.
Of course, not invincible.
After all, some monstrous geniuses there were outrageously indescribable.
Ye Guan stared at the dharma form, his brows furrowed. He did not know what this thing was, but he knew it was no ordinary matter.
Ye Guan spread his palm. Another qi sword condensed in his hand.
In the distance, the Person of Heavenly Mandate stared at Ye Guan. He suddenly bent forward and roared fiercely, “Break.”
With these words, the dharma form behind him also bent forward and roared, “Break.”
Boom.
A hundred-zhang golden light suddenly surged from within the dharma form. Wherever this golden light passed, the immense power contained within instantly crushed space, horrifying to behold.
Seeing this, Ye Guan, already retreated over a dozen zhang away, narrowed his eyes. He did not retreat further. He could not. Instead, he charged forward with his sword, then slashed down.
Boom.
A surge of sword intent suddenly swept out from his qi sword.
Under everyone’s gaze, Ye Guan’s sword actually halted that hundred-zhang golden light. At the same time, a flying sword suddenly slashed towards the Person of Heavenly Mandate’s face. The flying sword’s speed was incredibly fast, because it broke rules.
However, just as the flying sword reached the Person of Heavenly Mandate, the dharma form behind him suddenly wrapped its arms protectively around him.
Boom.
The flying sword was directly blocked by the dharma form, unable to advance half an inch.
The Person of Heavenly Mandate looked at the distant Ye Guan. At this moment, Ye Guan suddenly slashed down with his sword. The hundred-zhang golden light was directly shattered.
Ye Guan also looked at the Person of Heavenly Mandate. The two gazed at each other from afar.
Atop Guanxuan Mountain, Gu Chaoyuan watched Ye Guan and shook his head. “If this Ye Guan had a suitable sword, his combat power would surely increase manyfold.”
He had discovered a fatal flaw in Ye Guan: the lack of a good sword.
Though sword cultivators spoke of all things as swords, that level was certainly not something Ye Guan could reach now.
Therefore, in this fight against the Person of Heavenly Mandate, without a suitable sword, he was at a great disadvantage.
Fortunately, Ye Guan’s sword Dao attainment was profound and his sword intent powerful. Otherwise, his qi sword would pose no threat to the Person of Heavenly Mandate.
At that moment, the Person of Heavenly Mandate suddenly spread his palm. The flame before him flew into his hand. He silently chanted an incantation. Soon, the flame trembled rapidly. Around it, space melted at a visible speed.
Seeing this, Ye Guan gripped his sword tightly with his right hand. He slowly closed his eyes. The qi sword in his hand began to tremble.
At that moment, the Person of Heavenly Mandate suddenly pointed at Ye Guan. “Go.”
Boom.
The flame suddenly flew out. As it flew, it grew against the wind. In a blink, a thumb-sized flame transformed into a hundred-zhang-long flame giant dragon.
Boom.
The moment the flame giant dragon appeared, the surrounding space shattered explosively. The flame giant dragon charged directly towards the distant Ye Guan, about to devour him. Horrifying.
At that instant, Ye Guan suddenly opened his eyes. The moment he did, he turned into a sword light and vanished from the spot.
Instant Kill Sword.
This sword pushed Ye Guan’s speed to his utmost limit.
Chi.
Under everyone’s gaze, the sword light pierced the head of the flame giant dragon. After a brief pause, the sword actually tore open the dragon’s head. In the next moment, the entire flame giant dragon was forcibly split in two by Ye Guan’s sword.
However, it was not over.
After shredding the flame giant dragon, Ye Guan directly charged to the Person of Heavenly Mandate’s face.
The Person of Heavenly Mandate narrowed his eyes. Behind him, the dharma form suddenly bent forward, arms wrapping protectively around him.
Bang.
At that moment, Ye Guan’s sword stabbed the dharma form. The entire form trembled violently, then countless cracks appeared.
A ferocious glint flashed in Ye Guan’s eyes. He thrust another sword.
Boom.
The qi sword and the dharma form trembled violently simultaneously. The qi sword shattered explosively. The dharma form’s arms cracked countless times.
At that moment, Ye Guan condensed another qi sword, then thrust fiercely again.
Boom.
Under everyone’s gaze, the dharma form suddenly opened its mouth and roared.
Boom.
A terrifying golden light surged violently from its mouth.
At that moment, Ye Guan’s sword had just thrust out.
Boom.
With a deafening explosion, Ye Guan was sent flying. The dharma form also shattered explosively. The immense impact sent the Person of Heavenly Mandate retreating repeatedly.
At that moment, a flying sword suddenly slashed across the venue.
Sword Control Technique.
In the distance, the Person of Heavenly Mandate narrowed his eyes. He silently chanted. In an instant, a rune seal turned into a rune shield blocking before him.
Boom.
The rune shield forcefully blocked Ye Guan’s terrifying sword.
But in the next moment, another sword arrived.
Boom.
The rune shield trembled violently, then cracked.
Seeing this, a ferocious glint flashed in the Person of Heavenly Mandate’s eyes. As the third sword arrived, he suddenly clasped his hands. His forehead split open. A golden great seal flew out. On the seal were engraved two large characters: Qiankun.
Qiankun Seal.
The instant the Qiankun Seal emerged, Ye Guan’s qi sword was instantly repelled. At the same time, a mysterious symbol ‘卍’ suddenly appeared above Ye Guan’s head.
The Person of Heavenly Mandate’s eyes flashed ferociously. “Qiankun suppression.”
With that, he raised his right hand and slammed it down.
Boom.
The ‘卍’ symbol suddenly brought waves of golden light sweeping down, pressing towards Ye Guan below.
Chi chi chi chi.
In an instant, the surrounding space cracked and spread rapidly outward.
Horrifying.
Below, Ye Guan looked up at the ‘卍’ symbol pressing down. A ferocious glint flashed in his eyes. He stomped his right foot fiercely. His entire body turned into sword light and shot skyward.
Boom.
Ye Guan stabbed the ‘卍’ symbol with his sword. A burst of sword light exploded. Ye Guan plummeted rapidly. The moment he landed, the ground beneath his feet collapsed. But at that instant, he shot skyward again, slashing the ‘卍’ symbol once more.
Boom.
The ‘卍’ symbol trembled violently, then exploded directly. In the next moment, Ye Guan turned and flashed, instantly reaching the Person of Heavenly Mandate’s face.
The Person of Heavenly Mandate narrowed his eyes. His right hand suddenly twisted slightly.
Chi.
The Person of Heavenly Mandate vanished from the spot like a ghost.
Ye Guan’s sword struck empty air.
Ye Guan turned. At this moment, the Person of Heavenly Mandate slowly walked out from within the Qiankun Seal.
Seeing this, Ye Guan’s brows furrowed. He stared at the Qiankun Seal, his expression somewhat grave. This seal was extraordinarily special.
The Person of Heavenly Mandate stared at Ye Guan. “Again.”
The moment his words fell, Ye Guan suddenly appeared before him.
A sword breaking spatial rules.
At that moment, the Qiankun Seal suddenly turned into golden light enveloping the Person of Heavenly Mandate.
Boom.
A burst of sword light exploded on the golden light. The immense power caused the golden light to tremble violently.
At that moment, Ye Guan slashed down again.
Boom.
With this slash, the golden light and Ye Guan’s qi sword shattered simultaneously. The immense impact sent Ye Guan retreating repeatedly. During the retreat, with a thought, a qi sword instantly slashed towards the Person of Heavenly Mandate’s face.
The Person of Heavenly Mandate narrowed his eyes. He suddenly uttered, “Control.”
With these words, the Qiankun Seal turned into divine light blocking before him again.
Bang.
The divine light trembled violently. The Person of Heavenly Mandate retreated dozens of zhang repeatedly. The moment he stopped, Ye Guan slashed again.
Bang.
The Person of Heavenly Mandate retreated dozens of zhang once more.
One sword arrived, then another.
Bang.
The Person of Heavenly Mandate retreated dozens of zhang again. The moment he stopped, the divine light before him directly cracked.
At that moment, Ye Guan suddenly charged to the Person of Heavenly Mandate’s face again. Suddenly, his face changed dramatically. Dozens of rune talismans surged towards him.
Ye Guan slashed fiercely with his sword.
Boom.
A burst of divine light exploded. Ye Guan retreated dozens of zhang repeatedly.
After stopping, he glanced at his body. At this moment, many wounds had appeared on him.
Ye Guan looked at the Person of Heavenly Mandate and said solemnly, “Tower Grandpa, he has so much gear. Unlike me, I only have one Path Sword.”
Little Tower was rendered completely speechless.
At that moment, the Person of Heavenly Mandate suddenly said softly, “I somewhat underestimated you.”
Ye Guan glanced at the storage ring on the Person of Heavenly Mandate’s hand, lost in thought.
At that moment, the Person of Heavenly Mandate suddenly smiled. “I think our battle should end.”
With these words, he suddenly looked up and roared angrily, “Where is the Heavenly Dao of this realm?”
Boom.
Suddenly, the entire sky trembled violently. Then, an illusory eye appeared above the rune great array.
Heavenly Dao manifests.
Seeing this, everyone’s faces in the venue changed dramatically in an instant.
The Person of Heavenly Mandate suddenly took out a pitch-black token. “Ye Guan is unrighteous, massacring the innocent. Hear my decree. Assist me in slaying this demonic evil.”
After a moment of silence, an ancient voice suddenly resounded from the sky. “As decreed.”
A strand of Heavenly Dao light suddenly surged into the divine seal.
Boom.
The divine seal trembled violently. Then, the entire rune great array began operating at high speed. A strand of heavenly and earthly consciousness directly locked onto Ye Guan, rendering him immobile.
Heavenly Dao power.
At this moment, atop the myriad mountains, everyone wore expressions of shock.
This Person of Heavenly Mandate could actually borrow Heavenly Dao power.
Outrageous.
The moment the Heavenly Dao aura locked onto Ye Guan, the entire heaven and earth became illusory at this instant.
Strands of terrifying heavenly and earthly power continuously converged towards the divine seal.
Heavenly Dao power, also known as heaven and earth power.
Dimensional strike.
This was a true dimensional strike.
Directly inviting the Heavenly Dao to join the battle. Damn, who could fight this?
Ye Guan looked up at the illusory Heavenly Dao eye in the sky, silent.
At that moment, the Person of Heavenly Mandate suddenly pointed angrily at Ye Guan. “Die.”
…
