Chapter 747: Blood Filling the Night Sky

Chapter 747: Blood Filling the Night Sky

Wu Yuankai looked calmly at Xiao Chen. The red ribbons behind him undulated like waves, and vast Spiritual Energy flowed like a river.

Winds and clouds surged. Wu Yuankai’s aura swelled continuously. The surrounding stones in the air fell to the ground under the influence of the Heavenly Sage Laws.

“Not bad. I have not seen such an exquisite Drawing the Saber in a long time. If it were thirty years ago, this old man would have a good exchange of pointers. Unfortunately, I have accepted payment to kill you. So you have to die today.”

Wu Yuankai smiled and tightly clenched his dark gold gloves. They ground against each other, giving off creaking sounds.

“Blood Shadow Underworld River Fist!” The moment Wu Yuankai shouted, he punched from where he stood.

The Heavenly Sage Laws in Wu Yuankai’s body surged out. The blood-red ribbons burst forth with light, leaving a trace that even physical eyes could catch.

The blood-red Heavenly Sage Laws moved up and down, and an evil aura billowed out. Spiritual Energy poured in continuously and turned into surging Quintessence. This Quintessence surged out together with Wu Yuankai. The red fist light turned into a blood-red human head and flew out; it felt like the rivers flowed backwards and engulfed everything.

“Bang! Bang! Bang!”

Everything in the way of this blood-red head, all the huge rocks in its path, simply turned into dust and scattered with the wind.

Xiao Chen’s face remained calm, and his Great Perfection saber intent poured into his saber. His saber buzzed and released a boundless purple light.

He tilted his body forward as he drew his saber with his right hand. He chopped down the middle of the blood-red head, and his withdrawn saber intent burst out. The head immediately exploded in a burst of scarlet light.

The red light spread everywhere like blood filling the night sky. Wu Yuankai laughed loudly as his fists danced around. Fist lights turned into blood-red human heads flying everywhere.

Each human head left behind a blood-red trail in the air like a vast sinister underworld river.

A white figure flickered, riding on an Azure Dragon image. Xiao Chen weaved in and out the boulders, brandishing his saber as he calmly shattered the incoming human heads.

Wu Yuankai’s face twisted as a vein bulged on his forehead. He entered into a completely deranged state. The several blood-red Heavenly Sage Laws rose and fell, frantically absorbing Spiritual Energy from the surroundings.

Fist lights flew out continuously, appearing like surging underworld rivers. They crossed each other, and a multitude of aggrieved spirits wailed in anguish. A scene of the nine layers of purgatory appeared before Xiao Chen.

“How great! I have not seen Wu Yuankai’s Blood Shadow Underworld River Fist for some time already. He has improved since then; he can even bring out a scene of the nine layers of purgatory.”

“That white-robed fellow is quite incredible. Despite being just a Superior Grade Martial Monarch, he has relied on his state of lightning, state of massacre, and his Great Perfection saber intent to fight evenly with Wu Yuankai for two hundred moves.”

“However, compared to Wu Yuankai, he is still slightly weaker.”

“Once this scene of the nine layers of purgatory appears, it will be like hell truly arriving. The mind of this technique’s recipient will not only be in disarray, but the surging underworld waters will also be able to corrode Frost Iron.”

The range of the fight became increasingly broader. When people learned that one side was one of the Ten Evils, Wu Yuankai, the number of spectators increased by more than tenfold.

When Wu Yuankai’s fist burst forth and formed a scene of the nine layers of purgatory, everyone sighed.

Xiao Chen casually swung his saber and tore apart a human head. When he looked at the vast underworld river, it formed all sorts of horrifying mysterious phenomena. His lips curled up in a cold smile.

“Even the true hell cannot stop me. What more this mysterious phenomenon?

“Hidden Dragon in the Depths, Soaring Dragon!” Xiao Chen held up his saber as he looked at the scene of hell in front. A vast dragon roar resounded in his chest.

The purple clouds around Xiao Chen’s dantian scattered, cloud by cloud turning into pure and dense Quintessence that filled every nook and cranny of Xiao Chen’s body.

Soaring Dragon quickly accumulated momentum. Energy surged as though a mountain had crashed into the sea, vast and boundless. Xiao Chen could not help letting out a loud roar, inciting the immortal thunder in the heavens to rumble continuously.

Lightning tore through the night sky, and the heavens seemed like they would fall.

Xiao Chen took a step forward, and the night scene suddenly trembled. He moved through space like a True Dragon, soaring into the sky.

He merged with the saber. I am the True Dragon, and the True Dragon is me—an inextinguishable sharpness lasting forever, vast and mighty eternal rage. I will never get defeated.

No matter what nine layers of purgatory, what scene of hell, what ghostly cries and miserable shrieks, what demons, devils, or monsters. All of you! Break! Break! Break!

Soaring Dragon, inciting heaven and shaking the earth. No one can block me!

Xiao Chen, who let out the loud roar, immediately attracted countless gazes under the illumination of the electric light. He looked like he turned into a ferocious True Dragon rushing into the sky.

“Bang! Bang! Bang!”

In the underworld river, sinister evil spirits and miserable aggrieved souls broke one after another in rapid succession as the saber light flashed relentlessly around the scene of the nine layers of purgatory.

Suddenly, the saber light tore apart the scene of hell, and the horrifying mysterious phenomena vanished.

“How can it be? This brat actually tore the scene of the nine layers of purgatory!”

“In a competition of momentum of Heaven Ranked Martial Techniques, Wu Yuankai actually lost.”

Loud exclamations rang out. No one had expected Xiao Chen to break Wu Yuankai’s best move so decisively without leaving a trace.

“Ghostly Image Chop!”

Xiao Chen charged over and took the initiative. He did not hesitate to execute his own Heaven Ranked Martial Technique.

The look of astonishment in Wu Yuankai’s eyes was no less than anyone else’s. However, he also remained calmer than anyone else. When he saw Xiao Chen charging over, his figure flashed, and he quickly sent out a punch to block.

“Dang! Dang! Dang!”

Wu Yuankai received all seventy-two saber images that Xiao Chen sent out with his dark gold gloves, creating sparks.

These dark gold gloves had to be a high-quality Superior Grade Secret Treasure at the very least. When Xiao Chen chopped at them with his Great Perfection saber intent, he did not mark them at all.

They even naturally negated some of the force, relieving Wu Yuankai of a significant amount of pressure.

Having received all seventy-two saber images without feeling any pressure, Wu Yuankai curled his lips up. Smirking, he said, “You overestimate yourself. You think that by breaking my scene of nine layers of purgatory, you can suppress me?

“Furthermore, you even dare to take the initiative to approach me. You must be tired of living!”

The blood-red Heavenly Sage Laws behind Wu Yuankai swayed intensely. He revealed a ferocious gaze and quickly gathered Quintessence, preparing to close in on Xiao Chen and finish him with one punch.

Xiao Chen smiled faintly. Ghostly Image Chop was not as simple as his opponent thought. He turned his wrist and swung his saber in a circle.

“Boom!”

Suddenly, a sea of lightning took form, and electricity flashed with loud roars as the waves surged towards Wu Yuankai.

The sudden manifestation of a vast sea of lightning shocked Wu Yuankai. He quickly scattered his accumulated Quintessence and retreated. However, the sea of lightning surged up in tall waves, chasing after him.

The sea was boundless and the electric light, mighty. Before the vast sea of lightning, Wu Yuankai seemed insignificant.

“What a huge mysterious phenomenon! This fellow is only a Superior Grade Martial Monarch. How is he able to support the Quintessence needed?”

Wu Yuankai had seen much of the world. He could tell with one glance that the sea of lightning required a vast amount of Quintessence. He felt astonished and was still puzzled after much thought.

Even with his half-Sage cultivation, it would not be easy for him to support such a vast mysterious phenomenon.

In this situation, where Wu Yuankai could not find an opening, if he wanted to take this move head-on, he would have to spend several times more Quintessence than Xiao Chen.

However, at this moment, the sea of lightning surged, carrying its vast might. It had already arrived right before Wu Yuankai; he could not hesitate anymore.

“Nine Revolving Underworld River Changes!”

Wu Yuankai roared ferociously, and the blood-red Heavenly Sage Laws behind him quickly dimmed. His Quintessence became like a dormant volcano waiting to erupt.

Wu Yuankai punched out in fury. It felt like the nine layers of purgatory deep below and the ancient mythical underworld river sensed his summons.

The sound of gushing water came from above, appearing out of nowhere. A river filled with black Qi popped into existence and wound nine times around Wu Yuankai, forming a corkscrew with nine layers and tightly hiding him from view.

Dark Qi spread everywhere with countless aggrieved spirits and withered bodies swimming in the dark waters. It looked horrifyingly like the real underworld river.

“Bang!”

The sea of lightning and the underworld river suddenly clashed, giving off a loud report. Purple and black intertwined and swept out, destroying everything within three kilometers.

Wu Yuankai moved back a hundred meters. Because he had just expended a large amount of Quintessence, his face appeared somewhat pale. The barely visible Heavenly Sage Laws swayed quickly, trying to make up for the lost Quintessence.

However, Wu Yuankai had used too much Quintessence. Unless he stopped fighting and let his body rest, it would be impossible to recover just by depending on those several strands of Heavenly Sage Laws.

The most important thing was that Xiao Chen would not give him any chance to rest. This was a fight with a half-Sage who had formed Heavenly Sage Laws; he could not let this drag out.

Xiao Chen withdrew his aura and dispelled the sea of lightning. He vomited out a mouthful of blood, and a saber light flashed out.

A purple saber light flashed in the night, looking like a meteor. It moved in an instant, almost impossible for the eyes to follow.

Suddenly, Wu Yuankai felt death looming over him, startling him. He quickly stopped recovering his Quintessence and raised his focus to the limits, not daring to be careless at all.

Relying entirely on his abilities, Wu Yuankai turned around and used his glove-clad hands to shield his chest quickly.

“Dang!”

Electric light flashed, and Wu Yuankai stumbled a hundred steps. Space trembled intensely with each step.

Wu Yuankai clamped the Lunar Shadow Saber between his two dark gold gloves. The tip of the blade pressed against the inner vest on his chest, unable to move forward any further.

The strong wind caused the two’s clothing to flutter wildly. Wu Yuankai looked at Xiao Chen, whose saber he caught in his hands. He smiled coldly and said, “You can go die now!”

In Wu Yuankai’s opinion, Xiao Chen could not advance or retreat. This was his best chance to kill Xiao Chen. Xiao Chen would die for sure.

The moment Wu Yuankai said that, a mountain-like sovereign’s aura suddenly burst forth from Xiao Chen. It felt like a distant and glorious sovereign appeared before him.

Wu Yuankai’s mind froze. The hands clamped around the saber could not help but slack. Xiao Chen took advantage of this opportunity to pull back, drawing away the Lunar Shadow Saber.

“Return of the Azure Dragon!”

Xiao Chen swung his saber, and a dragon-shaped saber Qi covered with auspicious clouds instantly formed. He turned around like an Azure Dragon bursting out from the sea and sent out a saber strike.

Wu Yuankai had just shaken free of his shock from the sovereign’s aura, recovering his wits. Then, out of the blue, he faced the attack of Return of the Azure Dragon. This happened all of a sudden. He could not gather Quintessence in time and could only send out a punch.
