Let’s try!
Seeing Ye Xuan strike again, everyone in the scene grew solemn!
This clash might decide the victor!
At that moment, the man in white clenched his right fist tightly. As he unleashed a punch, mountains, rivers, sun, moon, and stars appeared behind him, generating mysterious, unknown forces. These forces surged like a torrent, overwhelming everything.
Everyone’s expressions changed!
Clearly, the man in white no longer wanted to engage Ye Xuan in close combat!
He knew that if Ye Xuan got close again, he’d be the one at a disadvantage!
Ye Xuan was a body cultivator!
In a life-for-life exchange, how could he compete?
In the distance, seeing the man’s punch, Ye Xuan decisively stopped. He opened his palm, and countless Human Sword Intents surged out wildly. Under everyone’s gaze, his intents formed a tornado, shattering the surrounding starry sky!
Ye Xuan raised his Human Sword and slashed forward!
A head-on clash!
As their terrifying forces collided—
Boom!
A deafening explosion echoed through the scene, and a shockwave surged outward, forcing the surrounding powerhouses to retreat. Even the Third Knowledge Realm experts stepped back, their faces grave.
Both Ye Xuan and the man were at the Order Realm, yet their power rivaled Third Knowledge Realm experts!
This realization eased the Past Sect members’ tension.
After all, the man in white’s true realm was Third Knowledge, while Ye Xuan was only Order Realm!
Nearby, Jiang Lian glanced at Ye Xuan, her heart filled with shock!
Initially, she saw Ye Xuan as just the Backer King, defined by his powerful allies. But now, she realized Ye Xuan himself was formidable, his strengths overshadowed by his backers!
Snapping out of her thoughts, Jiang Lian turned to the Ruins’ entrance, her expression complex.
She didn’t enter. The timing wasn’t right. Some obstacles needed to be cleared before they could approach the Ruins!
The Dao Sect wasn’t so simple!
Even without the Great Dao Pen’s master, it wasn’t something they could handle easily!
Boom!
A sudden explosion pulled Jiang Lian back to reality. She turned to see Ye Xuan and the man in white locked in fierce combat!
In the starry sky, countless sword energies tore through the air!
The two traded blows fearlessly, neither backing down.
Then, Ye Xuan closed in on the man again, aiming for close combat where his physical strength gave him the edge. As he got near, he slashed at the man’s shoulder.
Sss!
The man’s shoulder split open, but he reacted swiftly, landing a punch on Ye Xuan’s abdomen!
Bang!
The force sent Ye Xuan flying, but in that instant, countless Human Sword Intents engulfed the man in white!
Seeing this, the Past Sect members’ faces changed!
A fist light erupted from the sword light, shattering it. But the next moment, Ye Xuan, who had been blasted away, rushed back!
Another sword!
Boom!
Sss!
They clashed and parted again, but Ye Xuan instantly turned into a sword light, charging back at the man!
Everyone’s expressions shifted!
One sword after another!
Ye Xuan attacked like a madman, relentlessly charging at the man!
Under everyone’s gaze, each time Ye Xuan retreated, his body cracked further. Gradually, his body was covered in cracks, blood staining him red. Yet, he didn’t stop, continuing his frenzied assault!
The man in white was covered in sword wounds!
Finally—
Boom!
After an unknown time, Ye Xuan rushed forward again. As he was blasted back, the man’s body began to fall apart, piece by piece, like it was being sliced away. Soon, his body was gone, leaving only his soul!
Everyone turned to Ye Xuan. His body was shattered, but it still held together, not completely destroyed!
The man’s soul, now alone, looked up at Ye Xuan. But Ye Xuan charged again!
Seeing this, the Past Sect members’ faces darkened!
Was this guy insane?
At this moment, Ye Xuan was truly crazed!
He hadn’t activated his Mad Demon Bloodline—he was fighting to madness!
Seeing Ye Xuan charge again, the man’s eyes narrowed. He clenched his right hand, gathering a terrifying soul force!
As Ye Xuan reached him, the man unleashed a punch!
The soul force erupted like a volcano!
At the same time, Ye Xuan slashed down!
He still didn’t use the Qingxuan Sword!
If he had, killing the man would’ve been easy, even if the man restored his realm. Ye Xuan was confident he could slay him!
But he didn’t!
Ye Xuan’s principle was: if you’re honorable, I’m honorable. If you’re underhanded, I’m worse!
Since the man was fighting fair, Ye Xuan wouldn’t stoop low!
Though he didn’t use the Qingxuan Sword, he employed his Soul-Settling Sword Technique. Without the Qingxuan Sword, its power was reduced, but it still gave him a huge advantage!
Boom!
Under everyone’s gaze, the man’s soul force shattered instantly. He was flung back ten thousand zhang!
As he stopped, Ye Xuan slashed again!
The man’s eyes narrowed. His soul had faded significantly. Seeing Ye Xuan’s sword, he grew solemn, realizing it targeted souls!
Another head-on clash would cost him dearly!
The man closed his eyes, “Heaven and earth as my body!”
With that, he opened his right hand and clenched it.
Boom!
The heavens trembled. Under everyone’s gaze, countless mysterious forces gathered into his soul, instantly forming a new body!
The man opened his eyes, pointing at his forehead. Billions of ancient, mysterious characters appeared around him, like tadpoles, radiating an ancient aura from a distant past!
“The Past Scripture!”
A Past Sect member exclaimed!
The Past Scripture, the sect’s second-most powerful technique, could summon past forces into oneself. This punch represented the past.
Years ago, the man had used this punch to kill a powerhouse above the Third Knowledge Realm!
Now, facing Ye Xuan, he unleashed it again!
He clenched his fist, and the billions of characters turned into streams of light, merging into his fist. At that moment, Ye Xuan stopped!
He sensed the terror of those ancient characters!
Charging in would likely get him obliterated!
The man punched!
A ten-thousand-zhang torrent surged from his hand toward Ye Xuan!
In that moment, a starfield spanning tens of millions of li began to shatter!
The Past Sect members retreated rapidly!
Even the Third Knowledge Realm experts backed away, avoiding the punch’s force!
Nearby, Ye Xuan closed his eyes. He opened his palm, the Human Sword floating above it, as endless Human Sword Intent surged out.
This time, he activated his bloodline power!
Gradually, his sword intents turned blood-red!
Bloodline power!
Seeing this, the Past Sect members’ expressions grew grave!
As top-tier powerhouses, they could feel the terror of this bloodline!
The Backer King!
At that moment, every Past Sect member believed: this young man truly had a powerful backer!
Ye Xuan suddenly said, “This battle should end!”
With that, he charged forward. His blood-red Human Sword Intents merged into a single sword in his hand!
He drew a scabbard, sheathed the sword, and pulled it out, “Draw the sword, decide life or death!”
A full-force strike!
The sword cry echoed through the endless starry sky!
As Ye Xuan slashed—
Boom!
The entire starfield turned pitch black. A terrifying force erupted between Ye Xuan and the man, sending them both flying. The man’s soul grew increasingly faint, while Ye Xuan’s body turned to nothing, his soul beginning to fade!
After retreating tens of thousands of zhang, they stopped.
The visible starry sky had turned black!
Their terrifying forces had shattered the entire starfield!
The Past Sect members were incredulous. This power was too terrifying!
Ye Xuan stopped, closing his eyes.
He felt utterly drained!
At that moment, a shadow appeared. Everyone looked at it, and Jiang Lian’s pupils shrank, “Stop him! Quick, stop him!”
She rushed toward Ye Xuan!
The shadow was charging at him!
It wanted to kill Ye Xuan!
The Past Sect members exchanged glances.
What the hell?
Save the Backer King?
They couldn’t bring themselves to do it!
But Jiang Lian was terrified!
If the Backer King died here, they were done for!
Yet, she was more confused. The attacker wasn’t from the Past Sect. If not them, who wanted to kill the Backer King?
…
