Chapter 371: The Figure Beneath the Divine Blade

~12 min read 2,261 words

"Ughhh!!"

A roar came from high in the sky.

Lu Ran had known Deng Yu Xiang for a long time, but this was the first time he had ever heard the Great Nightmare roar in battle like this.

She was indeed at a life-or-death juncture.

A terrifying tornado had swallowed her figure whole.

Deng Yu Xiang could not spare the effort to stabilize herself; she only wanted to escape the range of the tornado.

She tried her best to channel the Divine Technique, Breeze Dance, but the intensity of the tornado was too high, severely restricting her movements.

Even more terrifying was that Liao Wushuang was attacking at high speed!

The killing blow had arrived!

Under the illumination of the warm winter sun, the ring-pommel saber gleamed, and a long blade mark cut straight into the tornado!

Was Liao Wushuang actually going to cut through both the person and the wind?

"Get ready!"

Suddenly, the Night-Severing Great Saber received a mental command from its master.

Deng Yu Xiang could fly on her own and had never needed to rely on her Divine Weapon.

But at this moment, her mind was filled with the image of Lu Ran being carried through the air by his Divine Weapon.

"Hum!!"

The Night-Severing Great Saber vibrated violently.

Deng Yu Xiang stopped resisting.

She no longer tried to fly out of the tornado, but instead let the storm wash over her, appearing to go with the flow.

No!

Deng Yu Xiang's Divine Technique fluctuations were extremely intense; she was channeling her Divine Technique with all her might!

Lord Bei Feng Divine Technique: Breeze Dance!

River-grade and lower Breeze Dance could only allow Lord Bei Feng disciples to have wind under their feet.

That wind wave would at most wrap around their calves.

But River Estuary-grade Breeze Dance could allow the wind waves to wrap around the entire body.

At this moment, Deng Yu Xiang's body was as light as a feather, letting the tornado carry her as she spun, and spun again.

"Down!" Deng Yu Xiang gripped the hilt tightly.

"Hum!" The Night-Severing Great Saber suddenly exerted force, carrying its master in a flying thrust.

Master and weapon used the momentum of the storm to exert force simultaneously, forcibly lunging three meters diagonally downward.

"Whoosh!"

Liao Wushuang, carrying a long blade mark, slashed past the side of the tornado.

In the pine forest below, a series of gasps rang out.

"My god!"

"Careful! Deng Deng Shijie Deng, that was so close."

"This? Can the Lord Bei Feng Howl even be cut open?"

"Senior Liao is too strong..."

Bursts of conversation surrounded two people who had lost their voices.

Bai Manni stared blankly at the high sky.

Deng Yutang's heart was in his throat, his body trembling from excessive tension.

The weather was clear today, with no snow falling.

Therefore, the tornado blooming high in the sky was not stained by thick frost and snow, allowing the two of them to see clearly.

Liao Wushuang had struck from right above Deng Yu Xiang's head!

If not for that split-second moment where Deng Yu Xiang thrust diagonally downward by two or three meters, she would have already been decapitated!

Decapitated!!

Deng Yutang could not imagine the sight of his sister's head falling alone.

Strictly speaking, Liao Wushuang had hit something.

The tips of her hair.

As Deng Yu Xiang fell, her ponytail flew high, and the tips of her hair were sliced off cleanly.

Those strands of hair drifting in the wind had taken the punishment in place of her head.

"Young one, why struggle?"

Liao Wushuang's voice was hoarse, making people's hair stand on end.

Her eyes were sinister; as she turned and flew backward, she had already slashed down with her ring-pommel saber!

All along, Liao Wushuang's offensive had been like a rainstorm, without a moment's pause.

Even the spectators had no chance to catch their breath.

Her mid-air slashing motion was certainly not in vain!

"Hum!!"

The ring-pommel saber vibrated violently.

Cold light shimmered upon the blade!

"Divine Weapon Domain!" Lu Ran's heart tightened; the Rosy Cloud Blade on his back trembled slightly, as if about to be unsheathed.

"Sss! Sss!"

"Sss..."

With Deng Yu Xiang as the center point, within a radius of one hundred meters, a massive amount of blade Qi suddenly surged forth!

Endless blade Qi swept horizontally, slashed vertically, and lunged diagonally.

The offensive was dense and chaotic, making one's scalp tingle just looking at it!

To everyone's surprise, Deng Yu Xiang did not dodge immediately, but instead reached one hand toward Liao Wushuang's direction.

A wild wind suddenly rose!

Just as Liao Wushuang turned to slash and stopped her backward flight, a tornado swallowed her figure.

These two River Estuary Realm experts had truly given everyone a lesson!

Liao Wushuang's offensive never stopped.

And was Deng Yu Xiang any different?

Both of them were faster than the other; their action speed was staggering, and their spell-casting frequency was terrifyingly high.

Were these two Lord Bei Feng disciples?

No,

These were two mad dogs!

They fought from the south end of the martial arts arena to the north, from the snow-covered ground to the clear high sky.

Since the battle began, the second hand on Bai Manni's expensive wristwatch hadn't even completed a full circle...

In fact, Deng Yu Xiang had no choice but to do this.

She needed to buy herself time, and she needed the tornado to control her opponent, even if only for a short time.

If Liao Wushuang had a stable environment to output damage, then Deng Yu Xiang would truly be finished!

"Sss..."

Deng Yu Xiang gasped in pain, paying a heavy price.

Just as she was casting her spell and reaching toward Liao Wushuang, a streak of blade Qi struck.

The sharp blade Qi split a crack in the Shattered Wind Armor she had just re-gathered.

If it were only this one streak of blade Qi, it would be fine.

But unfortunately, Deng Yu Xiang was at the center of the Divine Weapon Domain.

Four words: Death by a Thousand Cuts!

"Sss!"

Blade Qi landed on Deng Yu Xiang's arm.

"Crack!"

Blade Qi landed on Deng Yu Xiang's shoulder.

The Shattered Wind Armor shattered with a boom, and the Water Flow Armor immediately took its place.

However, the River Estuary-grade Water Flow Armor could not withstand the two or three streaks of blade Qi that appeared simultaneously.

The reason Deng Yu Xiang screamed was because a streak of blade Qi had sliced open her trousers.

From her calf all the way to her thigh!

Fresh blood splattered,

The wound was deep enough to see bone!

Any Divine Weapon that had activated a domain was no pushover.

Lu Ran's Rosy Cloud Blade, when unleashing the Divine Weapon Domain: Auspicious Clouds, had forcibly killed and repelled the Ghost Night Parade!

From another perspective:

Could the Divine Weapon Domain activated by a blade cultivated by someone like Deng Yu Xiang be low in intensity?

It was just that heaven had no eyes, and there was only one domain.

It was a pity she was born at the wrong time, having been preempted by another god of slaughter.

"Sss! Sss!"

"Crack!"

Covered in wounds, fresh blood sprayed.

Cracks also crawled across the blade of the Night-Severing Great Saber.

On the blade, where it had been chipped by the ring-pommel saber, small pieces of steel were peeling off and flying away.

This Divine Weapon Domain had a radius of one hundred meters.

The closer one was to the center point, the denser the blade Qi became.

Deng Yu Xiang fell rapidly, trying her best to re-gather the Water Flow Armor and constantly summoning the Shattered Wind Armor to protect her body.

"Whoosh!"

Deng Yu Xiang's falling momentum suddenly stopped as a streak of blade Qi brushed past her face.

Narrowly!

Lord Bei Feng Divine Technique: Listening to the Wind, had saved her life.

And her suddenly suspended body added another wound to her back.

"Sss!"

Deng Yu Xiang could not care about the pain and flew downward again.

Inside a Divine Weapon Domain, for every second one stayed, the mortality rate would rise by a point!

Facts proved that when the offensive was dense enough, even Lord Bei Feng believers skilled in listening and identifying positions could not dodge it.

Streak after streak of blade Qi slashed onto Deng Yu Xiang's body.

Finally!

The number of surrounding blade Qi decreased, and the frequency of appearance lowered.

Deng Yu Xiang was tottering, her body covered in wounds, looking like a bloody person—a shocking sight!

Sounds of gasping came from the snow forest, and discussions arose.

"Sss..."

"There's no fighting this. Senior Liao has a Divine Weapon Domain; how can one fight this?"

"They aren't even on the same level! Her strength realm was already lower, and the Divine Weapon is also a crushing force."

"Once the domain is opened, there's simply no way to survive."

"Will Deng Deng Shijie Deng die? So much blood..."

"Don't say that, they are compatriots after all. Have some heart, don't!"

"Sister..." Deng Yutang couldn't help but step forward, but he didn't know what he could do.

Bai Manni couldn't bear to look anymore, and didn't dare to look.

She closed her eyes tightly, fearing that in the next second, Deng Yu Xiang would lose her life.

"Yu Xiang!" Hu Jiaojiao's expression was complex, and suddenly her eyes widened.

She saw Deng Yu Xiang suddenly raise her right hand while falling freely.

The storm returned!

She still wanted to fight?

Hu Jiaojiao gritted her teeth and clenched her fists!

Yu Xiang could just admit defeat!

It was already enough!

In her line of sight, Deng Yu Xiang was lying on her back, falling, blood flowing all over her body, her eyes fixed on the high sky.

And high in the sky, Liao Wushuang, who was still "going with the flow" inside the tornado, didn't seem to have any intention of escaping?

Yes, Liao Wushuang was channeling her Divine Weapon with all her might, casting spells in combination!

She realized the storm was coming again.

But the corners of Liao Wushuang's mouth rose slightly.

That smile was cold and cruel.

Good!

This Lord Bei Feng Howl came at a good time!

I was afraid you would admit defeat, afraid you would give up right here!

If that happened, how would I be able to kill you?

"Ugh." Deng Yu Xiang suddenly clenched her fists, her Divine Power surging.

High above the sky, endless wind and waves gathered, rapidly taking shape.

It was a blade of massive proportions, one hundred meters long!

Around the blade, wind and waves spread out, fierce and incomparable.

The Lord Bei Feng faction's River Estuary Realm ultimate move—Lord Bei Feng Divine Blade!

"Whoosh!!"

Inside the tornado, Liao Wushuang, who appeared to be trapped, also raised one hand high.

High above the sky, to the side of the Lord Bei Feng Divine Blade, another Lord Bei Feng Divine Blade gathered!

Ultimate move vs. ultimate move?

Such a terrifying phenomenon shocked the entire Lord Bei Feng City.

Even in the Ice City outside the ancient city, vehicles and pedestrians on the street stopped one after another, looking at the high sky with stunned expressions.

"Young one, it's time to hit the road!"

Liao Wushuang muttered in her heart, her killing intent surging!

If not for the domain, young one, what a dazzling future you would have had.

In the future, you would surely have been a pillar of the Lord Bei Feng faction.

It's a pity, a shame.

The sky has no two suns; the domain has no two masters.

If you want to blame someone, blame yourself for stepping onto my path and wanting to take away what belongs to me!

"Ah!!"

"This?"

"Holy shit!!" Gasps arose everywhere.

Just when everyone thought the Lord Bei Feng Divine Blade summoned by Liao Wushuang would clash with Deng Yu Xiang's Lord Bei Feng Divine Blade...

Liao Wushuang's blade slashed straight toward Deng Yu Xiang!

There was never any earth-shattering divine blade confrontation.

The tone of the battle had been set long ago: mad dogs killing each other!

And Liao Wushuang's ultimate move was faster, striking after the start.

The River Estuary-grade 5 Lord Bei Feng Divine Blade gathered and took shape a step earlier than the River Estuary-grade 3 Divine Blade, and its downward slashing speed was three points faster.

It was not hard to imagine that the power of its slash would be even more terrifying!

"Whoosh!!"

One blade slashed toward the north of the martial arts arena.

"Whoosh!!"

One blade slashed toward the high-altitude storm.

The Lord Bei Feng faction's ultimate move required continuous spell-casting from assembly to slashing.

The caster needed to be fully focused and unable to move.

Fortunately, the Night-Severing Great Saber could move freely.

It supported its blade, which was covered in cracks, and tried its best to push Deng Yu Xiang to dodge to the side.

But the Lord Bei Feng Divine Blade was magnificent in scale, and its output range was astonishing!

Under Liao Wushuang's control, the divine blade constantly adjusted its angle, chasing after Deng Yu Xiang to slash...

"Yu Xiang!!"

"Deng Deng Shijie Deng!"

"It's over! No, don't..."

Amidst the gasps, a different voice mixed in.

"Sss—"

Immortal mist surged, and frost and snow danced wildly.

A young man wearing a white down jacket faced the giant divine blade descending from the sky...

And rushed toward that blood-drenched figure.
