Chapter 2227 - Su Yi’s True Power

Su Yi!

High Elder Yuan Shan gasped. His heart shook.

So it’s him! The one wanted by every god and buddha beneath the heavens, the reincarnation of Yi Daoxuan and Li Fuyou!

Everyone was paying attention to the Three Purities Daoist Court’s operation targeting the Xi Family because they knew that their real goal was to force Su Yi to show himself.

But who could have imagined that Su Yi had long since hidden himself in Qingwu Divine Court? Much less that he’d already become vice palace master of Wandering Night Palace?

It was simply unbelievable!

A moment later, irrepressible, searing hot murderous intent welled within Yuan Shan’s heart.

If they captured Su Yi here, there was no way the rest of the world would find out about it! Qingwu Divine Court would be the first to seize control over his power of reincarnation, and they could even claim the Epoch Spark for themselves!

Yuan Shan’s aura swelled at the thought of it, instantly becoming fiercer. The Two-Tribulation Master God had actually been holding back earlier!

Boom!

He breathed out thunder, his eyes flashing with divine radiance, and his cattail-leaf-sized hands formed seals. He waved them about like spears that pierced the heavens, shooting straight toward Su Yi.

The force was immense. Nothing could stand in its way.

This tyrannical strike had locked firmly onto Su Yi, shaking his heart and soul and gradually sealing off the surrounding area.

There was nowhere to run and nowhere to hide!

His majestic bearing was fierce and unparalleled!

Clang——!

The hum of a sword rang out, shaking the nine heavens.

High Elder Yuan Shan felt a piercing pain in his eyes. He instinctively narrowed his eyes.

Meanwhile, a Dao Sword appeared in Su Yi’s hand, its tip pointed at High Elder Yuan Shan’s incoming attack.

Sharpness against sharpness.

A deafening impact rang out, and a current of destructive power swept outward.

When the two combatants separated, Yuan Shan’s right hand was dripping blood. A cut had almost taken his fingers clean off.

Meanwhile, Su Yi’s chest heaved, and his Dao Sword, hummed in his grip.

“The Sword of Proximity! Hahaha, it really is you, you heretic!” High Elder Yuan Shan burst into laughter and attacked once more.

Su Yi rubbed his finger against the flat of his sword, then launched into fierce combat once more, not backing down in the slightest.

With his sword in hand, Su Yi’s combat strength soared. He could now display more of his attainments in the Dao of the Sword than ever before.

But High Elder Yuan Shan was just too terrifying, fierce, and tyrannical.

Although Su Yi repeatedly injured him, his fleshly body was all but indestructible. He wasn’t concerned about his injuries at all!

High Elder Yuan Shan’s eyes shone with ferocious, disdainful light. “Your cultivation is too weak, and your Laws are too low-level. You might have heaven-defying strength, but I’m an Undying Realm Master God. You can’t possibly destroy my body. How are you any different from an egg flinging itself against a rock?”

He attacked with ever greater abandon, using pure strength to break through Su Yi’s sword attacks. He rushed everything in his path, tyrannical beyond measure.

In stark contrast, even after drawing the Sword of Proximity, it was all Su Yi could do to fight back.

Even so, Ku Zhen couldn’t relax. On the contrary, he immediately tried to warn the high elder. “Don’t get complacent, High Elder. He escaped multiple Nine-Tribulation Master Gods’ joint attempt to intercept him on the Road of Celestial Guidance. I’m sure he has utterly terrifying cards hidden up his sleeves!”

High Elder Yuan Shan narrowed his eyes, then laughed. “I know that, of course! Just stand back and watch the battle!”

Kaboom!

The more they fought, the more intensely the battle raged. Su Yi’s wounds were increasingly severe.

In stark contrast, although High Elder Yuan Shan was covered in startling, bloody sword wounds, his ferocity didn’t decrease, instead growing over time.

“I’d like to see just how long you last!” High Elder Yuan Shan said with a hideous laugh.

“That’ll depend on how long

you

last,” said Su Yi, seizing an opportunity to take a little sip of wine.

Boom!

An eruption of power coursed through his entire body, and his wounds knit back together at speeds visible to the naked eye. Even his cultivation base returned to peak condition!

The divine brew, Seeking Something!

This was a treasure of the Qilin Race, someone even old monsters of the Undying Realm longed for but could not attain!

“This...” High Elder Yuan Shan’s pupils constricted.

Su Yi’s wounds hadn’t just healed instantly. His vital energy had even grown a little stronger, and it burned as if on fire!

“Dammit!” High Elder Yuan Shan roared. How could he miss the implications? If things went on like this, it wouldn’t matter how badly he hurt Su Yi. Su Yi would just recover instantly.

He was practically unkillable!

Off in the distance, Ku Zhen could sense that this didn’t bode well, and he couldn’t help but call out frantically. “High Elder, quickly! Use your killer move! We can’t afford to drag this out any further!”

“Shut your mouth! How could this lofty one need

your

advice to kill his enemies?” High Elder Yuan Shan roared in fury.

His eyes were bloodshot. He shifted on his feet, then transformed into a ten-thousand-foot-tall primordial divine ape in a flash.

A waterfall of blood-colored light poured down his glittering, golden fur, and his eyes shone like celestial bodies.

Meanwhile, his ferocious aura swelled. It was fully twice as powerful as before!

His essence, qi, and spirit burned like mad.

This was a forbidden secret art——the Nine Revolutions of the Blood Origin!

This technique burned his blood and qi to increase his combat strength many times over. It was High Elder Yuan Shan’s last resort and killer weapon.

Admittedly, he had no treasures to speak of, but his flesh, blood, and qi

were

his greatest treasures!

“Die!!”

𝐟𝕣𝗲𝕖𝕨𝗲𝐛𝗻𝗼𝐯𝗲𝚕.𝗰𝚘𝐦

One punch, and both Su Yi and his sword were sent flying backward. They couldn’t fight back at all.

High Elder Yuan Shan was like a barbarian god of a long bygone age!

“Die!” He fought bordering on madness, attacking in full force. He had no intention of giving Su Yi any chance to even struggle.

From beginning to end, Su Yi’s expression remained perfectly calm.

But now, when High Elder Yuan Shan called upon his killer weapon, Su Yi felt intense, lethal pressure bearing down on him!

It seems that even though I’m almost at the pinnacle of the Creation Realm, I still can’t defeat a Two-Tribulation Master God relying purely on my own strength,

thought Su Yi.

Once he’d reached this conclusion, he no longer hesitated. He too drew his killer weapon!

Clang!!

He raised the Sword of the Nine Hells, and a thunderous rumbling emanated from its edge. An inscrutable, mysterious sword force spread outward.

This was the power of the Sword of the Nine Hells!

It wasn’t just its aura, but rather, its true power. Now, Su Yi was drawing on it directly.

In truth, Su Yi had been able to draw on the Sword of the Nine Hells’ power since he first broke past the Hidden Summit Realm and became a god.

Even though this was just a tiny portion of the sword’s power, it was far, far mightier than what he’d had access to before!

After all, prior to this, he’d merely been able to draw on its aura.

Now, when he combined the Sword of the Nine Hells’ power and the Sword of Proximity, the Sword of Proximity shook violently, as if unable to bear this supreme sword force.

Hm?

High Elder Yuan Shan’s heart shook. He keenly sensed that something had changed, and his expression shifted.

What kind of power is this? Is this Su Yi’s killer weapon?

Before he could give the matter any further thought, Su Yi leaped through the air and attacked.

Boom——!

When this slash fell, heaven and earth split like canvas, and a massive rift tore open.

Even the Umbrella of Tribulations covering the area was startled, and it shook without end.

In the face of this slash, Yuan Shan’s ten-thousand-foot frame abruptly stiffened. He felt a prickling pain on his skin, and his hair stood on end.

This is bad!

But it was only when this slash arrived that he sensed just how terrifyingly powerful it was. He was a Two-Tribulation Master God, yet he felt suffocated and on the brink of despair.

He immediately shrank back down to his original size and dodged, not daring to hesitate in the slightest.

Boom!!

When the sword qi landed, heaven and earth collapsed.

Even though Yuan Shan dodged immediately, that terrifying sword intent swept over him, cleaving open a wound so deep that his bones were visible.

He grunted in agony, his face pale.

That sword qi was so terrifying as to make his heart quiver!

“Ku Zhen, don’t just stand there. Hurry up and help me take him down!” Yuan Shan roared in fury.

Boom!

Before his voice had even finished echoing through the air, Su Yi swung his sword and attacked. Sword qi swept forth, arcing through the air like a dragon.

It was just one slash, but it took High Elder Yuan Shan’s left arm clean off!

Yuan Shan fought with all his might, but he still couldn’t stop that terrifying, unparalleled sword force.

Boom!

Practically simultaneously, Ku Zhen took action, drawing a long, sharp blade and attacking the Umbrella of Tribulations.

“What are you doing!?” Yuan Shan roared in fury.

Ku Zhen ignored him completely and attacked the Umbrella of Tribulations with all his might.

Yuan Shan quickly understood.

Ku Zhen has realized that this doesn’t bode well, and instead of waiting for us to determine a victor, he’s trying to break free and escape!

“You bastard!!” Yuan Shan’s eyes reddened. Even if you’d hit him over the head, he would never have guessed that Ku Zhen would be so useless.

But it was too late for him to do anything because Su Yi was already attacking him once more. His attacks were like a pelting rain; he wasn’t giving Yuan Shan any chance to catch his breath whatsoever.

In the blink of an eye, a streak of sword qi sent Yuan Shan flying. He’d almost been cut in two at the waist, and he now sported a massive wound at his midsection.

He threw back his head, roared, and attacked like mad.

It wasn’t that he didn’t want to run, but that Su Yi wasn’t giving him the opportunity. He relentlessly kept Yuan Shan locked in battle.

“High Elder, I cannot die. If I do, no one will know who Xiao Jian really is!” Ku Zhen shouted and whaled on the Umbrella of Tribulations. “I have to leave here alive. Otherwise, I couldn’t possibly bear to watch you fight to the death alone!”

Before his voice had even finished echoing through the air, the Umbrella of Tribulations’ power gave in. It shook, and a rift leading to the outside world appeared.

“You wretch!!” Yuan Shan roared in hatred.

But then, a streak of sword qi descended from the heavens, piercing the crown of his head and boring a hole right through him, top to bottom!

Splurt!

Yuan Shan’s eyes bulged.

A moment later, he split into chunks like chopped bamboo. Blood splattered, and his soul dispersed.

A Two-Tribulation Master God had died, just like that!

He knew no peace even in death. He died with a heart full of bitterness and hatred.

Meanwhile, Ku Zhen fled through the opening in the Umbrella of Tribulations and shot into the distance.

Su Yi couldn’t help but frown. He hadn’t considered the possibility of Ku Zhen just leaving his companion to die, much less running away before Yuan Shan had even been killed.

Ku Zhen’s ruthlessness and decisiveness were extraordinary.

No matter what, I have to kill the old bastard. If he reveals my identity, I can forget about staying in Qingwu Divine Court any longer.

Su Yi didn’t hesitate to give chase.

He carried the Sword of Proximity, so he wasn’t really worried that Ku Zhen would escape.
