Looking at the sword mark, Guan’s face was filled with shock!
The might of a single sword was terrifying beyond belief!
At this moment, she regretted not learning swordsmanship from Ye Xuan back then!
Why learn to wield a brick?
Guan was overwhelmed with regret!
Nearby, Shangguan Ning’s heart was also struck with indescribable awe!
This sword completely overturned her understanding!
In the past, a ninth-rank grandmaster was the strongest she had ever seen!
But now, the power of this sword had utterly shattered her perception of martial arts!
This was a divine technique!
Shangguan Ning glanced at Ye Xuan, her expression deeply complex!
Ye Xuan gave a slight smile, “I must go!”
Guan’s expression dimmed, reluctant to part!
Ye Xuan gently ruffled Guan’s small head, then smiled, “The world out there is vast. Don’t be arrogant or conceited. Stay humble and low-key. Of course, don’t start trouble, but don’t fear it either, understand?”
Guan nodded, “I understand!”
Ye Xuan smiled, then looked at Shangguan Ning, chuckling, “Miss Shangguan, until we meet again!”
With that, he rose on his sword, vanishing into the depths of the starry sky in the blink of an eye.
Shangguan Ning looked up at the depths of the cosmos, her expression complex.
She knew she might never see this man again!
They were not from the same world!
But Guan’s eyes were filled with determination!
She would go to the main academy!
…
After leaving the Wuji Continent, Ye Xuan headed straight for the Desolate Battlefield!
He had to admit, he missed that girl Qingqiu a bit!
With his current strength, though not invincible in the universe, he had few rivals!
His folding technique, combined with the Qingxuan Sword, meant few could withstand a single strike!
Soon, Ye Xuan arrived in a lifeless star field.
He stopped, looking around. The surrounding starry sky was silent, but the starlight was brilliant, vast, and boundless.
According to the address Qin Guan had given him, he should now be within the Desolate Battlefield’s territory!
Just then, Ye Xuan suddenly turned his head. Not far away, a woman approached, wearing a hemp-coloured long dress, holding a pure black spear in her right hand. The spear was entwined with an ancient golden dragon, its tail at the handle, body coiling along the shaft, and head just at the spear’s tip, its face ferocious, mouth wide open, roaring as if to devour everything.
At that moment, the woman was also looking at Ye Xuan.
Their eyes met, both calm as still water.
Ye Xuan suddenly smiled, “Greetings, miss!”
The woman looked at Ye Xuan, “Greetings, sir!”
Ye Xuan was speechless.
Was this how to hold a conversation?
Ye Xuan smiled, “How may I address you, miss?”
The woman stared at Ye Xuan, “How may I address you, sir?”
Ye Xuan fell silent.
Was this girl doing it on purpose?
Without overthinking, Ye Xuan smiled, “Ye Xuan!”
Ye Xuan!
The woman calmly said, “Na Lan!”
Na Lan!
Ye Xuan gave a slight smile, “Is this the Desolate Battlefield?”
Na Lan nodded, “The northern part of the Desolate Battlefield!”
Just as Ye Xuan was about to speak, both of them simultaneously looked to the right. A thousand feet away, a blood-red coffin slowly floated toward them, its surface adorned with ancient, mysterious runes.
Ye Xuan frowned. What was this thing?
Na Lan’s brows also tightened!
As Ye Xuan was about to speak, Na Lan suddenly began retreating slowly.
Ye Xuan was stunned, then asked, “Miss Na Lan, what is that?”
Without a word, Na Lan turned into a spear light and vanished into the depths of the starry sky. By the time Ye Xuan reacted, she was gone.
Ye Xuan fell silent.
He was probably in trouble!
Sure enough, a terrifying aura locked onto him!
Ye Xuan turned to face the blood-red coffin. The next moment, a terrifying red light surged from within, accompanied by waves of horrifying killing intent and malevolence that swept across the entire starry sky!
In an instant, the starry sky turned into a sea of blood!
Endless killing intent and malevolence!
Sensing this, Ye Xuan’s eyes narrowed, and his berserk bloodline activated instantly. A torrent of killing intent and malevolence surged from within him, clashing against the opposing force!
Head-on!
Boom!
The moment the two killing intents collided, the entire galaxy trembled violently, then began to dissipate bit by bit!
After a brief stalemate, Ye Xuan, his eyes like a sea of blood, took a step forward. In an instant, he began frantically devouring the killing intent and malevolence released by the coffin!
Devouring!
In the blink of an eye, Ye Xuan completely consumed the opposing killing intent!
At that moment, a voice came from within the coffin, “A special bloodline! Who are you!”
Ye Xuan, with his bloodline activated, wasted no words. He charged forward, slashing at the blood-red coffin with a single sword strike.
Boom!
A burst of blood-red light erupted, and Ye Xuan was thrown back tens of thousands of feet. The coffin was also sent retreating tens of thousands of feet. When it stopped, the starry sky behind it turned to nothingness!
A deep sword mark appeared on its surface!
The voice inside the coffin sounded incredulous, “What kind of sword is this, able to damage my Heavenly Coffin!”
In the distance, Ye Xuan said nothing. A ferocious glint flashed in his eyes, and with a flip of his palm, the surrounding starry sky folded in an instant. As he folded the cosmic space, the voice cried out in shock, “You… you can enter hypertime! Who are you!”
Ye Xuan took a step forward, snarling, “I’m your father!”
As his voice fell, he swung his sword!
With that strike, a sword light flashed through the field like thunder!
At that moment, the coffin erupted with a terrifying blood-red light!
Boom!
With a deafening explosion, the coffin was sent flying millions of feet away, and the surrounding millions of miles of star field turned to nothingness. Countless experts were forced back by the shockwave of the sword!
When the coffin stopped, countless cracks appeared on its surface, and the ancient runes on it began to fade bit by bit!
In the distance, Ye Xuan stood with his sword, surrounded by a towering sea of blood, like a god of slaughter!
He casually waved his Qingxuan Sword, and a blood-red sword light surged like a tornado, shaking the heavens!
The voice from the coffin grew frantic, “Who are you! You…”
Just then, Ye Xuan took another step forward, about to strike again, but the coffin suddenly turned and vanished from his sight.
Seeing this, Ye Xuan frowned deeply!
It escaped!
Ye Xuan didn’t pursue, as the coffin had fled quickly, its aura completely gone.
Gradually, Ye Xuan suppressed his berserk bloodline, and soon he returned to normal.
Once normal, a cold glint flashed in his eyes.
He hated these fools who attacked without reason, especially when there was no grudge!
What kind of brain did they have?
No enmity, yet they attacked!
Like a complete idiot!
At that moment, the small pagoda suddenly said, “Little Master is getting tough!”
Ye Xuan’s face darkened, “Don’t say such crude things!”
Small Pagoda: “???”
Ye Xuan ignored the pagoda and glanced around. Just then, a graceful figure floated over—it was Na Lan, who had left earlier!
Na Lan looked at Ye Xuan, “Was that sword strike yours?”
Ye Xuan nodded.
Na Lan was silent for a moment, then said, “You’re that powerful!”
Ye Xuan: “…”
Na Lan looked at him, saying, “I’m Na Lanqi. Let’s get acquainted!”
Ye Xuan hesitated, then said, “If I weren’t so powerful, would you not want to know me?”
Na Lanqi nodded, “Of course!”
Ye Xuan countered, “Are you powerful?”
Na Lanqi’s brows furrowed slightly.
Ye Xuan smiled, “Sorry, I only want to know powerful people. You’re not powerful, so…”
With that, he shrugged, turned, and walked away!
What nonsense!
Did she think he’d indulge her?
Seeing Ye Xuan leave, Na Lanqi was stunned in place!
…
In the distance, after leaving, Ye Xuan headed deeper into the Desolate Battlefield.
He wanted to find Qingqiu quickly!
Because the power of that earlier sword was so immense, the star field he passed through was now nothingness. The shockwave of that strike had destroyed millions of miles of cosmic space!
Yet that coffin wasn’t completely destroyed!
Thinking of this, a trace of caution rose in Ye Xuan’s heart!
Clearly, this place still had many strong opponents!
He needed to be careful!
Ye Xuan quickened his pace. Soon, he entered a new star field, where the space-time was trembling, clearly affected by the earlier sword’s shockwave!
Looking around, a slight smirk appeared on Ye Xuan’s lips!
He had to admit, the folding technique was indeed terrifying!
That earlier strike hadn’t even used his full strength, or its power would have been greater!
Just then, Ye Xuan suddenly stopped and turned. The next moment, he vanished from his spot. When he reappeared, he was on a piece of land, facing a ten-thousand-foot mountain. From within the mountain, he sensed an extremely powerful battle intent!
He had never felt such intense battle intent!
Ye Xuan frowned. Whose battle intent was this inside the mountain?
At that moment, a white light appeared beside him, and an old man materialised next to Ye Xuan.
The old man glanced at Ye Xuan, then smiled, “How may I address you, young sir?”
Ye Xuan calmly said, “Ye Xuan!”
The old man smiled slightly, “Greetings, Young Friend Ye! I’m Zhenyuan!”
He looked toward the ten-thousand-foot mountain and said, “Young friend, you must be curious about the battle intent within this mountain!”
Ye Xuan nodded.
The old man smiled, “Within this mountain is imprisoned an extremely powerful warrior, a general from the ancient Ming Empire. Defeated in battle, he has been suppressed here for over a hundred million years! Sigh, a hundred million years—I wonder how he deals with his bodily needs!”
Ye Xuan turned to the old man: “…”
