Supreme Sword Exalt

Outside the Dragon Seal, the battle had reached a fever pitch. Saint realm cultivators could borrow the momentum of heaven and earth with every move they made.

Within the void, rumbling sounds came without pause. Even from such an extreme distance, everyone could still feel the strands of saintly might descending from the sky.

With ten against four, the advantage was overwhelming. Demonic qi, green light, dragon qi... the War Prince’s side went all out, their momentum strong enough to shake heaven and earth. In just an instant, they shredded the vital qi of the four barbarians into pieces.

The four spat blood and flew backward. They were anxious as their hearts were filled with despair.

One man turned extremely grim. “What do we do?! If this continues, we’ll definitely be—”

The War Prince resumed his onslaught, bringing down several lights of divine abilities. Caught off guard, a barbarian took a direct hit. His already severe injuries could no longer withstand it and he collapsed. With a look of despair, he screamed miserably, staggering backward.

Fu Youde’s eyes lit up. “Quick! Take care of that one first, then the other three! Afterward, go support the old ancestor and the others—”

Suddenly, a vast, pristine, and mighty aura spread from the extreme distance.

Everyone’s hearts tightened. Shit! This aura seems to have already surpassed the Feather Transformation realm!

The War Prince was bitter. “It’s Yun Ao. He is unfathomable!”

Only now did everyone understand what the War Prince had meant earlier when he spoke of peril. It came from Yun Ao!

The severely injured barbarian was smug with satisfaction. “With the hall master here, your empire is finished!”

The Tiansheng hall master was full of bitterness. “And all you helpers will die here too!”

Fu Youde was furious. “I will kill you first before anything else!”

He was just about to make a move when a dark green light descended from within the void. In the blink of an eye, it fell upon the ten of them. Vast and hazy, the green light seemed ethereal, but it was also extremely heavy. Just by touching a trace of it, everyone felt the circulation of their cultivation slowing down.

Even more terrifying, under the green light, their forms gradually turned transparent. It was as if they were about to be pulled into another space!

Fu Youde cursed loudly, “How can that bastard be this strong?!”

No one had expected that Yun Ao, facing four Feather Transformation realm cultivators, could still spare the power to overwhelm the ten of them. Just how strong has he become?!

The War Prince’s expression changed drastically. “Careful! If the green light teleports us into the Dragon Seal, it’s over! Kill him first!”

The barbarians weren’t about to waste this chance. They erupted with an extremely domineering vital qi once again, all of it crashing down toward Fu Youde. For some unknown reason, they found this middle-aged fat man very detestable, even more so than the War Prince.

Fu Youde’s face turned pale. Shit!

The green light’s illumination made him feel trapped in a swamp. He had to desperately resist that terrifying attraction!

Just then, another ancient dragon’s cry sounded—majestic, primordial, and domineering! The dark green light dispersed slightly.

Feeling the pressure lighten, everyone struck immediately, narrowly blocking the fatal blow aimed at Fu Youde.

Fu Youde shouted, “Kill them!”

However, their battle prowess was far inferior to before. Defeating the four suddenly felt a tad unrealistic.

Casually, the War Prince glanced toward the extreme distance and sighed softly. Brother, can you defeat him?

***

Ten thousand li away from the War God Hall, a patch of green cloud floated above the Luoheng Holy Master’s head. Within it seemed to be a page of a Dao book, emanating faint Dao sounds.

The demonic clouds around Yan Qianjue grew increasingly thick. Demonic shadows churned; demonic howls and ghostly cries rang out unceasingly.

As for Fu Dahai, he held a single ancient, incomplete jade talisman. Gray light cascaded from it, firmly blocking the green light three zhang outside him.

No matter how hard they tried, they could barely defend themselves against the green light, much less counterattack.

More and more purple blood flowed down from between the Flame Emperor's brows. The vast, primordial aura around the thousand-zhang purple dragon grew increasingly heavy. The dragon might continuously descended, suppressing the green light. His aura had also faintly surpassed the Feather Transformation realm.

The three exchanged shocked glances. Yun Ao and the Flame Emperor had repeatedly broken through realms by paying a tremendous price and relying on secret techniques. Such feats were impossible for ordinary people, even if they wished for it. As expected of the Ancestral Dragon’s descendants.

At this moment, Yun Ao was white-haired and full of wrinkles. His aura grew increasingly domineering, and his tone increasingly arrogant. He took a step and arrived before the purple dragon instantly. Endless green flames condensed in his hand, pressing down fiercely on the dragon’s head.

“I said I will kill you, so I will—“ He suddenly froze, his eyes flashing grimly as he spun around. “Hmm? Chi Yao? You’re not dead yet?”

At the same time, the little green dragon in the pond seemed to sense something as well. It gave a clear cry and swung its long tail, disappearing into the pond.

***

Inside the Dragon Seal, Chi Yao’s tone was full of gravity. “All sorts of strange things have been sealed here for who knows how long. When I arrived, they were already here. I thought they had died out long ago, but it turns out these things can outlast even me! They seem quite eager to get out.”

He understood that these things had sensed the change in the hub and came over. The temptation of getting out of this godforsaken place was too great.

Gu Han was full of vigilance. Before him were the creatures who had survived the devouring force. Even after losing most of their power, they remained formidable opponents. In fact, he was still no match for them, especially the extremely cold and ghostly figure at the front.

Suddenly, that tentacled monster seemed somewhat irritable in temperament. With a roar, it was the first to charge toward the spirit seal.

Chi Yao shouted casually, “You keep going!”

He swallowed all those bottles of pills, causing his vital qi to surge. He inflated, immediately transforming into a tall, thin man. His vital qi churned as he continuously radiated a domineering, fierce fist intent.

Without hesitation, he swung his fist toward that monster. “Break!”

After a loud crash, the monster staggered back. Chi Yao’s vital qi weakened again. Without paying any heed, Gu Han poured his spirit power even more frantically into the spirit seal.

Blocked by these monsters that had long since lost their sanity, he understood that there was no turning back anymore. If they stopped here, they would die even faster. Only by opening this crack as quickly as possible could there be a chance of survival.

In just an instant, Chi Yao had clashed with that monster several times, each staggering back. The remaining monsters seemed to have gauged Chi Yao’s depth, and they stirred restlessly.

The barbarian cursed, “Damn it! If I still had my strength from back then—”

Suddenly, a huge green dragon shadow flashed past above them, and a powerful will descended. The creature firmly locked onto all of them. The monsters instinctively looked up at the sky, full of unwillingness and venomous hatred.

Out of nowhere, a powerful devouring force descended.

Gu Han’s heart sank. “Shit!”

This devouring force is far stronger than before!

Before he could react, a surge of vital qi had already protected the two of them.

Chi Yao caught his breath. “Don’t get distracted! What about the pills? Give me two more bottles! I can hold on a little longer!”

Without hesitation, Gu Han immediately took out over ten bottles of pills.

Chi Yao laughed, cursing, “I knew you were filthy rich! These pills are quite extraordinary. I wonder where you got them, kid?!”

Sweat faintly appeared on Gu Han’s forehead as he focused on the spirit seal.

Chi Yao’s smile gradually faded. “Kid, once the crack opens later, you two get out first!”

Gu Han sensed something wrong. “Alright... wait—what about you?”

With a trace of loneliness, Chi Yao glanced toward the crack. “Me? I don’t think I can get out anymore.”
