Chapter 1493 - 1494: Strength and Weakness

Chapter 1493: Chapter 1494: Strength and Weakness

Dong~

Xiao Tianyu stepped out as well, the Qi of Myriad Phenomena roaring within his body. A violent surge of Sword Power howled skyward; with a flick of his will, a streak of Sword Aura slashed forward, killing its way ahead, cutting down all in its path.

In an instant, a sword storm erupted with Xiao Tianyu at its center, rampaging out in all directions.

Puchi~

That Palm Seal that had descended to suppress him was abruptly annihilated by Xiao Tianyu’s single sword strike.

Weng~

Gales howled, and the void let out a dragon’s roar; it was as if a Golden Dragon was grinding down toward Xiao Tianyu, shrouding heaven and earth. It was none other than Red Dragon City’s ultimate art—Dragon Hand.

The Golden Dragon roared madly, Dragon Hand obliterating the void as it grabbed down toward Xiao Tianyu.

"Courting death!"

Li Fei snorted coldly, stepping forward as the ground split apart, torrents of violent power erupting. But Xiao Tianyu said to Li Fei, "Leave this one to me. Go elsewhere—and protect Ye Zhan while you’re at it!"

"Alright!" Li Fei nodded. He naturally didn’t worry about Xiao Tianyu; he was very clear on how capable Xiao Tianyu was. With that, he led Ye Zhan away in great strides.

Xiao Tianyu continued, "Qingluan, you go too!"

"Mm!" Mo Qingluan’s beautiful eyes flickered. "You be careful as well!"

Hua~

Before Mo Qingluan’s voice had even fallen, that Dragon Hand grabbing down from the void was ripped apart by Xiao Tianyu’s Sword Qi.

The battle igniting here was like a command; war erupted simultaneously in all directions. In an instant, chaotic currents churned across the battle platform, Qi of Myriad Phenomena sweeping through the void. In just that split second, several people had already fallen, their Qi of Myriad Phenomena plundered by others.

On Xiao Tianyu’s side, someone launched a sudden assault on him, and he naturally would show no mercy. His figure flashed, sword light killing out as Five Elements Dao Intent assisted, shredding all attacks before him. A streak of Sword Aura slashed toward that youth from Red Dragon City.

"Hmph!" The youth snorted coldly, dragon roars endlessly shaking this stretch of space. With a wave of his hand, a Golden Dragon bellowed as a terrifying Gold great palm descended to suppress Xiao Tianyu.

Rolling might surged without end.

"Perish!" Xiao Tianyu let out a cold snort, unleashing another sword. Above him, a surging Sword Vortex pierced straight into the heavens, and a thousand-meter sword beam pressed down from the sky, turning everything it passed into nothingness.

Peng peng peng~

All of that youth’s attacks were annihilated beneath this sword, the Golden Dragon vanishing into the void as well.

In that instant, the youth’s expression changed.

"Kill!" Xiao Tianyu snorted coldly, his hand soaring into the void. A strand of Heavenly Dao might condensed in his palm, shattering the void, casting wind and cloud into turmoil.

Immediately after, his hand clenched down in the void—peng! With a thunderous boom, the youth let out a miserable scream and exploded into a cloud of blood mist, dying without leaving a corpse.

At the same time, a thread of azure light shot into Xiao Tianyu’s brow. Xiao Tianyu felt the radiance behind him grow slightly, though it was still far from ten zhang.

Meanwhile, Xiao Tianyu felt his strength increase by a small margin as well.

He spoke at once: "Li Fei, Qingluan, don’t get lost in the fight. The more Qi of Myriad Phenomena you plunder, the stronger your power becomes. You must not allow others to pull too far ahead!"

Previously, he had thought that plundering this Qi of Myriad Phenomena only increased the radiance behind him. He hadn’t expected that the higher the radiance climbed, the more terrifying the power would become.

Hearing Xiao Tianyu’s words, Mo Qingluan and Li Fei both nodded repeatedly, holding back not even the slightest bit. Since it could enhance their combat strength, they naturally didn’t wish to be left behind.

Once that gap opened, it would mean death.

"You..." Seeing a clansman of his slain by Xiao Tianyu, Chi You’s expression was ugly, but a cold killing intent flickered deep in his eyes. Xiao Tianyu, however, couldn’t be bothered with him. His figure flashed as he pounced into the crowd, slaughtering wildly.

On the Heaven Concealing Sect’s side, Liu Futian and Zhan Futian led the geniuses of the Heaven Concealing Sect in a frenzied rampage, like a killing Array sweeping its way forward. Wherever they passed, people fell without cease, their Qi of Myriad Phenomena plundered by the Heaven Concealing Sect’s group in domineering fashion.

Seeing this scene, many people felt despair.

Within the Celestial Killer Alliance, Duan Feng and Bloodslayer were at the forefront, leading the Alliance’s cultivators in an unending harvest. Their onslaught was likewise terrifying to the extreme. At this rate, on this battlefield, their two Sects would become the strongest.

Peng Family Castle and the Celestial Sword Sect, seeing this, hurried to imitate them. The Celestial Sword Sect’s Seven Stars Sword Array was unspeakably fearsome; wherever it passed, Sword Qi rampaged, and countless people died beneath that Seven Stars Sword Array.

The people of Peng Family Castle were famed for their strength, the Array they condensed being none other than the Eight Dragon Array. A hundred forms manifested within the formation, endless power surging forth. Anyone enveloped by their Eight Dragon Array was crushed by that tyrannical force.

In an instant, corpses littered the field.

The people of these four major powers grew stronger and stronger, gradually pulling ahead of everyone else. As a result, the range covered by their battle formations constantly expanded.

"All of you, fall back!" Seeing this scene, Xiao Tianyu barked an order. Li Fei and Mo Qingluan flashed back toward Xiao Tianyu’s position, and with the addition of the Ye siblings, there were precisely five of them—the Five Elements Array took form.

In a split second, the power of the five of them more than doubled.

Seeing this, cultivators from other sides naturally began to form alliances as well. But since they weren’t from the same Sect, it was easy for second thoughts to arise, and they were fundamentally unable to stand against the major Sects. Many formations were shattered in a single instant, their members cut down.

On Xiao Tianyu’s side.

"You all support. I’ll take point in the killing!" Xiao Tianyu said.

"Alright!" Li Fei, Mo Qingluan, and the Ye Family siblings all nodded, holding down the four directions. Xiao Tianyu’s Five Elements Dao Intent burst forth without pause—metal, wood, water, fire, earth, five icy beams of slaughter, cutting down lives wherever they passed. He attacked only, not defended.

Of course, as for defense, that was left to Li Fei and the others.

Very quickly, Qi of Myriad Phenomena surged toward them endlessly, making the aura of the five grow stronger and stronger. They had already reached a height of three zhang, quite terrifying. Naturally, the five of them were still not the most terrifying; members of the other major powers had already risen to four zhang. The gap between people on the battlefield grew larger and larger.

Those with extremely weak Qi of Myriad Phenomena could only become prey for the strong.

Now that the difference in strength was clear, the major powers no longer needed to maintain large-scale killing formations. They began to spread out, frenziedly plundering in all directions, throwing the battlefield into even greater chaos.

On Xiao Tianyu’s side.

Weng weng weng~

Wave after wave of Sword Dao aura howled through the heavens, endless Sword Aura falling from the void. Nearly every beam of Sword Aura would claim a life; anyone who stood in its way died and their Dao was extinguished.

Facing this bloodthirsty, plunder-driven situation, the weaker cultivators were filled with despair. Yet, having stepped into this place, there was only being killed by others—or killing others. Aside from that, there was no other path.

Weng~

However, just at that moment, a violent surge of energy swept over, its might boundless. A Golden Dragon ground down from the void, its claw tearing toward the weakest among them—Ye Lingshuang.

Ye Lingshuang felt the crushing pressure, her face turning pale.

Xiao Tianyu lifted his cold gaze. He saw Chi You grinning ferociously—at this moment, the radiance behind Chi You had already reached four zhang, his combat strength terrifying to the extreme.
