The Emperor Reigns Them All

Chapter 393 Interception

Although the flying sword was small, it swept away all the Spiritual Qi in a radius of several thousands of feet, as if there was a huge magnetic field of Spiritual Qi in it. All the Spiritual Qi filled into the flying sword and constantly enhanced its power.

Wherever the flying sword went, space was distorted, forming an abstract painting like a river. The sound of the surging spiritual waves and the thunder mixed together, shaking the sky and the earth, as if the sky were falling.

When people looked up, they no longer saw the sun, as if the apocalypse had come.

Zhang Ji didn’t have any reservation so that his strike was very powerful. Because of his decisiveness, the Immortal Court sent him down to deal with Li Ye.

All the demons turned pale. The demons with low cultivation were frightened, and some began to shudder, not because they were timid, but because the weak were instinctively terrified when confronted with an overpowering force.

Red Boy and You Daxiao looked at each other and saw each other’s solemnity. Obviously, even Red Boy was not sure that he could take this strike.

It was normal that the general that the Immortal Court sent the second time would be more powerful than Chen Jizhen and Huang Jingyuan. The Immortal Court wouldn’t give them a chance to resist.

“Stop it!” Red Boy and You Daxiao flew up at the same time without hesitation.

Red Boy was holding his Long-flames Sharp Spear, and his cultivation burst out. When he flew up, his momentum was like a comet, and the Spiritual Qi surrounding him was like a burning flame. The air seemed to evaporate within 300 meters around him, making his body look blurry.

You Daxiao let out a roar from his throat. He wielded his Invincible Painted Halberd, and his black demon Qi splashed like ink. His body instantly expanded to 300 meters, whistling and unstoppable.

“Sky-breaking Spear!” Red Boy’s Long-flames Sharp Spear hit the tip of the flying sword.

Apart from the True-fire of Samadhi, the Sky-breaking Spear was Red Boy’s most powerful attack technique. Unlike the range attack of the True-fire of Samadhi, the Sky-breaking Spear was more suitable for breaking one point.

With Red Boy’s strength, his spear could even knock down a towering mountain.

Red Boy lived up to be the first Son of God in the demon clan. When he challenged different Sons of God in the past, the Sky-breaking Spear was always invincible. Therefore, Red Boy was famous in the young generation of the demon clan.

When he fought Li Ye previously, Red Boy didn’t use this strike, not because he didn’t want to, but because he was worried about hurting Li Ye and affecting the overall situation.

When the spear hit the flying sword, the blurry space around him exploded successively like a firecracker, from the tip of the spear. The wind and thunder surged in the air, as if space had no longer existed.

“Destruction of Mountains and Rivers!” Almost at the same time, You Daxiao’s Invincible Painted Halberd also chopped on the flying sword.

It was You Daxiao’s most powerful strike. When he fought, the black gases around him were thick enough to turn into liquid, as if he knocked over a 300-meter inkstone.

Countless black gases turned into countless tornados, surging in the “collapsed” space with a terrifying momentum, as if it could devour everything.

When all the demons saw the two Sons of God’s most powerful strikes, they were awed by them, and many of them were confident of victory. Obviously, both the Sky-breaking Spear and the Destruction of Mountains and Rivers ever had very impressive records.

However, 300 meters behind the flying sword, Zhang Ji was full of disdain. “How dare a firefly compete with the sun and the moon? When you encounter my ‘Qianli Sword’, your only way is to be beheaded!”

Boom!

With an unprecedented explosion, a white mushroom cloud of Spiritual Qi rose in front of the Qianli Sword. Rising up to 3,000 meters, clouds instantly enveloped Red Boy and You Daxiao and covered everything.

It was as powerful as a volcanic eruption.

The next instant, a stream of purple sword light flew out the rising mushroom cloud like a meteor. It still went straight to Li Ye without slowing down.

That was the Qianli Sword!

Red Boy and You Daxiao flew backward from the mushroom cloud and kept vomiting blood!

There was no fire around Red Boy anymore, and You Daxiao’s body restored to its normal size. The two of them were no longer able to hold their weapons. They fell down with the Long-flames Sharp Spear and the Invincible Painted Halberd!

Seeing this, all the demons turned pale.

Zhang Ji passed straight through the mushroom cloud with the Qianli Sword, as fast as light. He stared at Li Ye with his eyes like lightning. He sneered. “If I want you to die, no one can save you!”

Li Ye narrowed his eyes.

However, there were people in front of Li Ye.

When Red Boy and You Daxiao flew out, all the demons flew up one after another.

Now they blocked between Li Ye and the Qianli Sword, forming a second line of defense!

Li Ye was the hope for the demon clan to go out into the world. If Red Boy or the other cultivators of the demon clan had encountered such a situation at the very beginning of the battle of Hedong, they wouldn’t have been willing to put themselves in danger in the case of knowing of defeat.

When they helped Li Ye at that time, they kept a wait-and-see attitude, because they just wanted to see if he could succeed in the case of having help.

But it was different now. Li Ye got the Luck of heaven, which not only proved his strength but also showed great luck.

Red Boy and You Daxiao had great expectations for him, and they made up their minds to send a message back to the demon clan and ask six Great Sages to dispatch more cultivators to come.

Therefore, at this moment, even if they had to sacrifice their lives, they would block this strike for Li Ye to keep the hope of the demon clan’s going out into the world!

Li Ye certainly understood this.

But it wouldn’t be easy to do that.

The Qianli Sword came very fast, and its track was unpredictable. He couldn’t target it, and he wasn’t sure that he could dodge, because it seemed to come straight, but in fact, it could appear from any angle when it reached his face!

This was what made the Qianli Sword unique.

Therefore, if Zhang Ji didn’t want the cultivators of the demon clan to touch the Qianli Sword, they wouldn’t succeed.

However, Zhang Ji didn’t control the Qianli Sword to change its track. It still flew straight to Li Ye and didn’t avoid all the demons.

“A mantis tries to stop a chariot! If you want to die, I will help you!” Zhang Ji smiled cruelly, showing his arrogance.

He was arrogant because he could.

He made this aggressive attack because he needed to show his strength and build prestige in the world. He wanted to tell the demon clan that they had no chance at all because he went down to the human world. Therefore, they didn’t need to send people to get in his way anymore.

If they couldn’t keep their duty, they could only die without a burial place!

Only by an aggressive attack could he build prestige.

All the demons flew up to the air and carried out their most powerful techniques, demonic spells, and immortal spells. Dozens of Spiritual Qi with different shapes and colors hit the space before and after the flying sword fiercely!

The burst of Spiritual Qi made the air into a mess.

But the next moment, accompanied by Zhang Ji’s wild laughter, the cultivators of the demon clan vomited blood and flew backward. Zhang Ji flew through them easily with the Qianli Sword.

There was no doubt about the outcome.

Several of them were in the Sky Immortal Realm!

At this moment, they couldn’t withstand a single blow, like decayed leaves. They couldn’t even block the flying sword!

No wonder Zhang Ji was so confident that he even didn’t fear Feihong Bodhisattva!

He didn’t need to fear because of such overwhelming strength. He could be arrogant.

He was not arrogant, but confident!

At this point, the flying sword was very close to Li Ye!

All these happened in a very short time. The mushroom cloud was still rising. Red Boy and You Daxiao were seriously injured. When they saw this while falling, their faces turned pale.

“Run!” You Daxiao instinctively uttered a word through his teeth.

At this point, Li Ye had no chance of survival, to say nothing of victory. From the very beginning, he didn’t think that Li Ye could win. He just wanted to do his best to keep Li Ye’s life and the hope of the demon clan.

But now...

Red Boy looked desperate. “He can’t run...”

As the first Son of God of the demon clan, Red Boy fought countless battles all his lifetime. But never had he been so powerless.

Because the situation was completely out of his control. There were no possibilities.

The enemy was so powerful that he didn’t dare to have hope.

Even though Li Ye was powerful, he was just a Yang Spiritual Master. When he faced such a powerful strike, he was unable to dodge.

Even if Feihong Bodhisattva was “delirious” and wanted to help Li Ye, she might not dare to block it for Li Ye.

At this moment, Red Boy felt that he was finished and so was the great achievement of the demon clan. He didn’t want to move at all, as if he fell into an ice cave—of course, he couldn’t move either.

All the demons were defeated. Their faces were bloodless, and some of them were even whining.

Zhang Ji came with his sword. He shouted arrogantly, “Li Ye, wait for death obediently!”

Li Ye certainly wouldn’t wait for death.

He looked calm.

In fact, in this short time, he already mobilized all his strength to the extreme.

At this moment, his mind settled as still water.

It was because he had no distractions.

Only his eyes were cold.

Holding his sword, he turned it around with his wrist. The Sword Qi, like a pen, drew a circle in front of him.

He looked at Zhang Ji. His voice was steady, but his words were sonorous and forceful. “Purple Qi Yin and Yang!”

The “Purple Qi Yin and Yang” was a cultivation method in “Purple Clouds from the East”, and it was Li Ye’s unique skill before his transmigration.

The “Cloud-gathering Punch”, the “Purple Qi Phaseless Palm”, and the “Purple Qi Born Lotus” were common techniques. Compared with them, the “Purple Qi Yin and Yang” had a higher rank and more power.

Correspondingly, it had stricter requirements for cultivators.

Before his transmigration, Li Ye was a Yang Spiritual Master. He succeeded in practicing this method, but he rarely had the opportunity to use it.

On the one hand, of course, the unique skill wouldn’t be used easily. On the other hand, Li Ye couldn’t control it perfectly.

Because it could only be perfectly used after he comprehended Tao to a certain realm.

The “Purple Qi Yin and Yang”, as the name implied, was related to the Tao of Yin and Yang.

“Purple Clouds from the East” was an excellent cultivation method. When a cultivator practiced to the last stage, he had to enter the level of “Tao”. Actually, except for the previous techniques Li Ye used, all the following ones involved “Tao”.

This was what made “Purple Clouds from the East” powerful.

Li Ye had comprehended the Tao of Yin and Yang in the secret region. Especially, the 40 years in the village was a precious experience.

He had just comprehended Tao, but not yet entered Tao or controlled Tao. However, with the unique method of “Purple Clouds from the East”, it was enough for him to fully use “Purple Qi Yin and Yang”.
