Chapter 1993 - 1976: Semi-Saint Wudi

Rumble!

Xiao Ye’s brutal and unmatched fighting style caused the void to tremble. The defenses deployed by the ten quasi-saints quivered violently but held firm.

Xiao Ye was not surprised and continued his attack.

"Hmph, you’re not that impressive after all."

"Let’s have some fun with you."

...

The ten quasi-saints wore mocking smiles, unleashing their combat power as they charged at Xiao Ye, like hunters watching their prey struggle before the arrival of death.

In the starry sky of the Slaughter Blood Major World’s Holy City, an intense battle erupted.

The aura of the Saint Dao spread, with terrifying shockwaves sweeping out like tides in all directions.

Looking around, Xiao Ye was enveloped in half-saint power, as if he could revive the quasi-saint artifact in his hand.

The Heavenly Desolate Tripod towered between heaven and earth, as if it could refine everything.

The Heavenly Blade unleashed terrifying sword light, splitting the heavens and the earth.

The Fanli Seal was incredibly heavy, suppressing all things under heaven.

...

Nine quasi-saint artifacts, driven by half-saint power, appeared like nine quasi-saints continuously striking, seemingly bringing down a vast expanse of heaven, shattering the void as they kept attacking the ten quasi-saints of the Dayan Ancient Clan.

The ten quasi-saints fought fiercely with Xiao Ye, white holy light engulfing everything, large swathes of starry sky torn apart, and countless planets exploding.

An entire star domain could not withstand such a level of battle.

If other half-saints’ power was like the Yangtze River, then Xiao Ye’s half-saint power was an ocean, enough to drown everything.

Moreover, it contained terrifying Saint Dao seals, fully capable of battling quasi-saints.

Boom! Boom! Boom!

The nine quasi-saint weapons were continuously driven by Xiao Ye with force.

At the same time, brilliant divine light burst from Xiao Ye’s body, as if returning to the beginning, pure and flawless, with radiant light shooting into the sky, as fifteen anomalies descended, enveloping his entire body.

At this moment, Xiao Ye even activated the Tai Chu Body, although due to its low level, it couldn’t deal with quasi-saints, it could enhance his defense.

"Xiao Ye has just entered the Half-Saint Realm, yet is so powerful, capable of driving nine quasi-saint artifacts simultaneously, it’s incredibly defiant."

"Luckily, we didn’t target Xiao Ye back then, otherwise we might all have fallen."

The spectators all retreated in shock, some flabbergasted, a half-saint from the Sky Demon Clan breaking into a cold sweat.

Just entering the Half-Saint Realm and possessing the strength to battle quasi-saints was already frightening enough. Yet the Xiao Ye before them was fighting ten quasi-saints alone, once again redefining their understanding of him.

"The Saint Dao I imitated is too astonishing!" Xiao Ye felt elated, roaring across the starry sky.

This was his first full display of power after ascending to the Half-Saint Realm, and the result left them very satisfied.

With the Half-Saint Realm, ordinary quasi-saints were by no means his match!

Clang!

Just then, the ten quasi-saints struck in unison, their momentum surging, looking down upon all heavens, directly repelling the nine quasi-saint artifacts.

"Hmph, little bastard, you think acquiring nine quasi-saint artifacts allows you to contend with us?"

"Though you forcibly drive the nine quasi-saint artifacts, without the corresponding spiritual technique, their might cannot manifest, let alone deal with us."

"Today will be your day of death!"

...

The ten quasi-saints stepped forward, steadily advancing, with cold sneers on their faces.

"Nine quasi-saint artifacts appearing together is indeed astonishing, but they can’t trouble our clan’s ten quasi-saints." Yue Qianqiu softly murmured from afar.

In this battle, although Xiao Ye seemed fierce, the ten quasi-saints were steady and controlled, not too serious, effectively holding the upper hand.

Clang!

At this moment, Ye’s expression turned icy, and as he grasped his palm, a crisp sound of a sword streaking to the skies arose, as if a king among swords was reviving, and an ancient stone sword fell into Xiao Ye’s hand.

Quasi-Saint Artifact—Jiang Kong’s Stone Sword!

Swoosh!

Xiao Ye gave a light shout, stabbing towards a quasi-saint.

"Hmph, this kid acquired quite a few quasi-saint artifacts!" That quasi-saint snorted coldly, even too lazy to dodge, actively facing Xiao Ye in an attempt to strike.

Boom!

At that moment, the originally simple and unadorned Jiang Kong’s Stone Sword suddenly emitted a terrifying aura, surging forward like a star river cascading down from the Nine-layered Heaven, vast and boundless.

There was no moving mountains or filling seas, nor collapse of Cangyu, yet this sword pierced through the defense of the quasi-saint.

Pfft!

The quasi-saint’s expression dramatically changed, letting out a scream, his body shattered, blood splattering wildly as he was severely injured.

"What!"

This scene left the remaining nine quasi-saints dumbfounded, their minds in a daze.

Why was this stone sword, supposedly a quasi-saint artifact, in Xiao Ye’s hands, so powerful?

"This little bastard has a spiritual technique to drive this quasi-saint artifact, everyone be cautious!" A quasi-saint’s face darkened as he warned.

However, at this moment, an ancient scripture’s booming sound emanated from within Xiao Ye, and he took the opportunity to unfold the ’Chu’ scripture phenomenon, piercing through the ten quasi-saints’ defenses.

"This is not good!"

Watching from afar, Yue Qianqiu felt a sudden ominous feeling, ready to leave, yet a figure like a god demon suddenly appeared, blocking his path.

"Xiao! Ye!"

The hairs all over Yue Qianqiu’s body stood on end, a sense of death enveloping him, nearly suffocating him.

"Surprised?"

"You probably didn’t expect this moment, did you?"

Xiao Ye, holding Jiang Kong’s Stone Sword, gazed coldly at Yue Qianqiu as he spoke.

He was already skilled in the Jiang Kong Sword Technique, but driven by his half-saint power, its might was completely different, already capable of piercing some quasi-saints’ defenses.

"Fellow quasi-saints, save me!"

Yue Qianqiu’s face turned pale, panic-stricken, he cried for help wretchedly while unleashing all his power, rushing away into the distance.

"Little bastard, if you dare strike, we will grind you to dust!"

From afar, the nine quasi-saints regained their senses, quickly arriving through short-distance instant teleportation.

Yue Qianqiu was, after all, a martial artist of the Dayan Ancient Clan; if he were killed in front of them, how could they save face?

"I told you, today you will die."

However, Xiao Ye turned a deaf ear, stabbing out with Jiang Kong’s Stone Sword.

Pfft!

Without any suspense, Yue Qianqiu’s spirit body trembled, directly engulfed and torn apart by the vast sword light, without even a chance to scream, his form annihilated.

This scene left the watching martial artists speechless, the starry sky falling into silence.

Xiao Ye knew full well Yue Qianqiu hailed from the Dayan Ancient Clan, yet he still struck and killed him? That was too overbearing!

The nine remaining quasi-saints also halted, then erupted in furious shouts, their murderous intent sky-high, each immediately wielding their quasi-saint weapon.

At this point, only the opponent’s blood could quell their fury.

"Alright, now it’s time to send you on your way."

"You dared to provoke me, Xiao Ye, so you should have been prepared to die."

At this moment, Xiao Ye put away Jiang Kong’s Stone Sword, letting his black hair fall, turning to look at the nine quasi-saints.

Buzz!

He grasped his hand, and a divine light flew out from the space ring, transforming into a person-height long spear.

This long spear was entirely engraved with complex and exquisite patterns, its spearhead gleaming with sharpness, as if capable of piercing the heavens, causing the nine quasi-saints’ bodies to tremble violently, their expressions frozen.

"This... is this a Saint-grade Weapon?"
