Chapter 410: The Legendary Demonic Beast Dark Tyr (2)

Thousands of orthodox cultivators had already gathered around a ridge that was critical to the defense of the True Origin Celestial Sect.

These orthodox cultivators were from the seven major celestial orthodox clans and had come to help to help defend the True Origin Celestial Sect from the attack of the heretic cultivators.

The ridge was narrow and was the perfect strategic place to hold firm the positions of the celestial orthodox clans.

It was perfect except for two little problems.

The heretic cultivators had already unleashed the legendary demonic beast the Dark Tyr on the ridge and hundreds of cultivators from the celestial orthodox clans were either injured or dead.

Right now, all the top cultivators from the celestial orthodox clans had just beaten a hasty retreat.

This Dark Tyr was too formidable; it is a black beast with nine tails that can lash from all sides, have eight limbs and a head with three horns that can generate lightning.

The sword arts of the seven major celestial orthodox clans were futile against it. Any wounds that the Dark Tyr had received were quickly regenerated but the Dark Tyr was rarely injured because its profound defense was too formidable and moreover it could move so fast that the top cultivators from the seven major celestial clans were defending more than attacking even though they were many versus one.

When the Dark Tyr had suddenly cut down three top cultivators in a blink of an eye with one of its nine tails, the orthodox cultivators were immediately demoralized.

But they had a sudden hope because these three top orthodox cultivators had sacrificed their lives to cut one of its nine tails down.

This may be a small victory but it was also a small step for the orthodox cultivators, one giant leap for the celestial orthodox fraternity!

Just as the orthodox cultivators were cheering for their one small step and one big leap, the Dark Tyr had already fully regenerated its broken tail.

At the same time dozens of cultivators were either wounded or killed by the lightning of the Dark Tyr.

This forced the remnants of the top celestial orthodox cultivators to beat a hasty retreat.

There were loud wailing from the sides of the celestial orthodox clans as they welcomed the remnants top cultivators back; many of the perished or seriously wounded were their elders or the gifted cultivators of their generation.

"Master is dead…"

"Our celestial clan has lost so many of its geniuses…"

"Almost all the next generation core protégés are dead…"

Out of 1000 top orthodox cultivators, only 300 managed to pull back and it was only because the Dark Tyr was not chasing after them across the ridge.

That was only because the Long Tingguang the leader of the heretic cultivators wanted to jeer at the fleeing top experts of the seven major orthodox clans so he had restrained his spirit beast. "Is this the so call top experts of the seven celestial orthodox clans? I must say that I am disappointed. Maybe you may want to send your leaders to challenge my Dark Tyr instead. Muhahaha…"

The heretic cultivators were all laughing aloud at the same time as well.

Many of the orthodox cultivators were indignant but they were also put down to shame…

There were also many orthodox cultivators who were also secretly thinking of surrendering to the heretic cultivators in the hope that their lives would be spared from today's carnage.

It was because their enemy was too formidable today!

Moreover the orthodox cultivators were also facing a second problem from the heretic cultivators that had gathered in their thousands; fighting along the heretic cultivators were 1000 Green Hulks, powerful desolate apes that are twice the size of the average cultivator but they are 10 times as strong as the average cultivator and their arm muscles are as big as the biggest chest of the cultivators.

One Green Hulk already can easily take down 10 cultivators and moreover there are 1000 of them today!

Qiu Xiuyu and Ji Yuan had just arrived and they were in time to see the carnage and the humiliation of the orthodox cultivators.

Yun Chi was not with them as she deemed it inconvenient for her to show up. Moreover mask or no mask, she may be recognized by the heretic cultivators because her air was too extraordinary.

She had said to them, "I will watch the battle from afar."

Qiu Xiuyu quickly pays her respect to Xiang Wen the protégé grandmaster of the True Origin Celestial Sect, "My respect to sect leader."

Xiang Wen was a middle age looking man and when he saw Qiu Xiuyu, he began to sigh loudly. "Elder Xiuyu, you are here. Alas, it seems that today I will be letting our Patriarch Li Ye down and the True Origin Celestial Sect will be ruined in my hands today."

Qiu Xiuyu was also shocked when she saw the carnage.

She had recognized many of the dead and wounded as the top cultivators from the seven celestial orthodox clans and many of them were even stronger in her in cultivation. But yet all of them grouped together was not even able to scratch the Dark Tyr.

She felt a little foolish now because she was about to recommend her 'protégé' Ji Yuan to fight against the Dark Tyr and she did not know how to even start the conversation now…

She did not want Ji Yuan to die now…

Ji Yuan had also seen the carnage and he was appraising the Dark Tyr now.

He muttered silently; Hmm, is this really a legendary demonic beast? It is only a sixth rank profound desolate monster. It is also a defense type so it will have formidable defenses, recovery and regeneration. Indeed, it may look legendary in the eyes of the cultivators here…

He began to rub his chin; even a sixth rank profound beast can kill a lone saint cultivator…

"Master?" Ji Yuan had turned to Qiu Xiuyu to call her. She was supposed to recommend him to fight the Dark Tyr.

Qiu Xiuyu turned to whisper to him instead, "My lord, it is unwise for you to fight this Dark Tyr alone. Didn't you say that your profound strength is restricted here?"

Ji Yuan laughed softly, "I won't die. If I die then you will have to sleep alone."

Qiu Xiuyu had a suddenly flush on her countenance.

Fairy Anyang muttered inside Ji Yuan's soul sea, "Is our lord using the same remark that Yun Chi had used on him?"

Xiang Li giggled, "That is right. Big Brother is very petty."

Ji Yuan: …

"I am not…"

But he quickly ignored them as he stepped forward as he raised his voice, "My respect to all the leaders and elders of the seven celestial orthodox clans. May I have your permission to fight this Dark Tyr?"

When Xiang Wen and all the thousands of orthodox cultivators heard Ji Yuan, they could not resist a chuckle. It was as though they had heard the most funny thing.

On the side of the heretic cultivators, Long Tingguang was quite startled to hear chuckles from the orthodox cultivators' side and he was feeling a little perplexed…

Xiang Wen solemnly said to Ji Yuan, "You are out of your line here. Quickly step back. This is not the time for foolish heroism…"

But Ji Yuan had already flashed down the ridge to challenge the Dark Tyr.

His nimbleness surprised and started many of the orthodox cultivators…

But many were sarcastic against him, especially Elder Dong who had borne a grudge against him.

"He is only a junior protégé who wants to be a hero…"

"Just because he has Fairy Xiuyu as his master, he wants to show off in front of her…"

"Does he have a pig brain? He has to weight his worth first…"

"He wants to challenge the Dark Tyr when so many of our top experts have already failed…"

"He is too young, too simple…"

"He is going to be a dead hero…"

All of a sudden, dead silence began to follow…

It was because Ji Yuan had not only flashed in front of the Dark Tyr but he had also dismembered the legendary demonic beast in a blink of an eye.

No one had actually seen how Ji Yuan had moved or attacked and all of a sudden the Dark Tyr was suddenly dead.

This shocked everyone, including the heretic cultivators…

They could only see two flashes of light as Ji Yuan randomly took out two divine swords that he had plundered from his opponents a month earlier.

Although he could not use his own saintly divine swords but he could always use a less inferior divine sword.

One must know that the Dark Tyr can make dozens of attacks in a single blink of an eye and it was impossible for a cultivator to even go near to it without any support.

But Ji Yuan had done the impossible.

Ji Yuan chuckled to himself, "It is merely a sixth rank desolate profound beast. I can handle it even with my eyes closed. Haha…do I even need to use my two sword spirits for this battle? I thought I may need but in the end, this is too easy."

Then he rolled his eyes when he remembered his conversations with Yun Chi; she had me fooled…

At first he was a little nervous about this fight because Yun Chi sounded as though it was going to be a deadly battle.

He began to flash his eyes around hoping to catch a glimpse of Yun Chi as he cursed silently; she must be laughing somewhere…

Fairy Anyang muttered weakly, "Our lord is getting too conceited especially when he has completed his True Sacred Saint Profound Art."

Xiang Li giggled, "He has his golden core now so he is way stronger than even most sixth realm golden celestials."

Long Tingguang was infuriated by the loss of his Dark Tyr as he shouted furiously, "Release the Green Hulks on that insolent cultivator! I want his head on the sacrificial altar and I want to drink his blood personally!"

And a thousand Green Hulks were now charging toward Ji Yuan almost immediately.

Qiu Xiuyu panicky raised her profound strength to shout, "Ji Yuan, quickly turn back. We will support you…"

Xiang Wen was still stunned from what he was seeing and he could only manage a hoarse voice, "Yes…we will support you…hero…"

He was not the only one that was in disbelief and stunned on the spot. Thousands of them were all stunned that such a formidable Dark Tyr was just killed like this that they did not even know how to react when Long Tingguang had suddenly unleashed the hordes of Green Hulks to attack Ji Yuan.

But instead of pulling back, Ji Yuan started to flash ahead, stunning everyone.

Ji Yuan said quietly, "These Green Hulks are all desolate monsters so they are not cultivators, am I right? So I won't fail my trial if I kill them."

Then he chuckled as he took down the first Green Hulk, "Don't blame me. Blame yourself for being green in color. I hate green most."

In a blink of an eye, Ji Yuan had taken down another ten Green Hulks.

All the heretic and orthodox cultivators were stunned by what they were seeing; they could only see Ji Yuan walking very slowly as he took down one Green Hulk after one another. They could not see his swords because he was swinging his sword arms so fast that his swords were like flashes of light.

All they could only see were that this Ji Yuan was not only a master of the sword but he was also a sword energy practitioner as he literally exploded the vicinity with his deadly sword energies, cutting down one Green Hulk with a flash of light and slaying more as the swing of his sword exploded behind the dead.

From dozens of dead Green Hulk, it quickly becomes hundreds of dead Green Hulks.

Everyone was stunned with disbelief; it was as though Ji Yuan had unlimited stamina and he could still keep fighting with his optimize prowess!

Although Ji Yuan's profound strength was restricted in the mortal realm but his recovery was never restricted. Using the profound strength of a fourth realm cultivator with the astonishing recovery of a great saint is like taking a walk for Ji Yuan.

Ji Yuan was like a battle god and a god of war as he slaughtered all the Green Hulks and it did not even take him long as a thousand corpses soon littered all over the place.

Everyone was too startled because one Green Hulk is pretty strong even for a high level cultivator like Fairy Xiuyu and moreover Ji Yuan had just taken down 1000 Green Hulks!

Long Tingguang stammered when he saw the carnage as he lifted his middle finger, "This…is…not…over yet…"

Then he was hastily beating a retreat.

"Great Supreme Leader, where are you going?!" Many of the elders of the heretic cultivators were stunned as they called after him. "Didn't you just say it is not over yet?"

Long Tingguang turned back to say bitterly, "If we stay around here then it is truly over for all of us. Are you stupid or what? Hurry and sound the retreat alarm!"

"But…but…"

"No but!" Long Tingguang continued to say bitterly, "Have you ever seen someone with sword energies with this kind of range and deadliness? Even before we can even say hello to him, we will already be dead!"

Then he pointed to the same group of elders who had tried to act brave in front of him. "Since you are not afraid then you shall act as our rearguard and to cover our retreat from this monster."

The elders: …

Elsewhere Yun Chi was smiling as she watched the battle on top of a tree, "So Ji Yuan, so this is your hidden trump card. You are indeed the fastest sword in the Desolate Celestial Realm and maybe even in the entire Celestial Realm."

Today she had finally witnessed how fast Ji Yuan's sword truly was; his speed attack was so fast that his sword had tripled the penetrating power without a need to triple his triple power.

That was how the Dark Tyr was slayed instantly when Ji Yuan had bypassed its profound defenses in an instant.

Ji Yuan had a reputation as the fastest sword in the Desolate Celestial Realm even when he was just a golden supremacy.

Few had actually witnessed how fast his sword was but several top swordsmen had acknowledged that Ji Yuan was the fastest sword hence they had spread the word.

Since this was only the mortal realm and Ji Yuan would not see them again, so for the very first time in ages he had displayed his true sword speed.

Ji Yuan's right sword arm was much faster than his left sword arm. In recent years, he had been secretly training his left sword arm to be equally as fast.

Yun Chi began to sigh all of a sudden, "He is too unfathomable. I've almost let down my guard against him…"

Fairy Anyang was also stunned when she saw Ji Yuan speed attack, "I didn't know our lord can attack so fast…"

Ji Yuan laughed unabashedly, "Haha, usually I only use my best speed when I am dueling with someone."

Fairy Anyang said quietly, "This type of speed cannot be easily accomplished by most cultivators. How did you manage to push yourself beyond your limits?"

Ji Yuan laughed, "I am afraid this is my secret as Sword Saint."

Xiang Li giggled, "I know how Big Brother is able to push beyond his limits!"

Ji Yuan laughed, "Xiang Li, go ahead and make your guess but you will never be able to guess correctly."

Xiang Li winked at him, "Although I'm your useless Xiang Li but I understand you all too well so I will be able to guess correctly!"

"Go ahead!" Ji Yuan laughed even more loudly. "Prove me wrong then."

No one would be able to know the tedious training that he had been through, much less Xiang Li.

Xiang Li giggled, "Big Brother must be practicing very hard at pulling down panties of the maidens without they ever realizing it, that's why."

Ji Yuan: …

Ji Yuan: …

Ji Yuan: …

"Xiang Li, we really need to talk for once. For real…"
