Chapter 563: Taixu Flame Spear, the Collision Between Low-Grade Spirit Treasures

~14 min read 2,667 words

On the other side, Prince Xieyue, who had not acted rashly, looked at Ye Qingxiao's calm appearance and hesitated again in his heart: "It's just that I don't know if this Human Ye Qingxiao has other hidden cards besides the Seventh-Order talismans?"

"If this Human Ye Qingxiao has other hidden cards besides the Seventh-Order talismans, then he will be somewhat difficult to deal with."

While hesitating in his heart, Prince Xieyue subconsciously touched a small pitch-black sword hanging at his waist, murmuring to himself: "Could it be that I really have to use the Xieyue Sword bestowed upon me by my Father Emperor?"

The Xieyue Sword at his waist was a magic treasure of the Two-Star Low-Grade Spirit Treasure level that his Father Emperor had spent a hundred years specifically refining for him.

If it weren't for the short time spent nourishing it during refining, the Xieyue Sword at his waist could have even reached the Three-Star Low-Grade Spirit Treasure level.

The power erupted after a Two-Star Low-Grade Spirit Treasure is revived is enough to be comparable to the combat power of an ordinary mid-stage Void Penetration Realm cultivator.

As for a Three-Star Low-Grade Spirit Treasure? Depending on its foundation, it can erupt with the power of a late-stage Void Penetration Realm, or even a peak Void Penetration Realm.

Prince Xieyue was currently only at the peak of the Deity Transformation Realm; to revive the Xieyue Sword, he could only use the Xieyue Sword's own foundation. After revival, the Xieyue Sword could not maintain combat power comparable to a mid-stage Void Penetration Realm for long.

Once the foundation within the Xieyue Sword was exhausted, he had no sufficient spirit crystals in the lower realm to replenish the Xieyue Sword's energy.

Relying solely on the automatic recovery of the energy source within the Xieyue Sword, it would probably take hundreds of years.

Thinking of this, Prince Xieyue's eyes again showed hesitation.

Now, the other Human Race powerhouses of the Xuanli Realm were not here. If he revived the Xieyue Sword just to kill Ye Qingxiao, it would be somewhat not worth it.

Thinking of the losses caused to him by Ye Qingxiao's secret ambush and single strike, Prince Xieyue felt unwilling and said: "If only the Human Race Deity Transformation Realm powerhouses of the Xuanli Realm could also be gathered together."

One must know that this was different from when the two races were at war before.

When the two races were at war, the Human Race's Deity Transformation Realm powerhouses were scattered across various battlefield sectors and were not gathered together.

At that time, even if he revived the Xieyue Sword, he could not keep many Human Race Deity Transformation Realm cultivators.

By the same token, this was also the reason why Ye Qingxiao had not used Seventh-Order Upper Grade attack talismans in the previous few major battles.

If he used a Seventh-Order Upper Grade attack talisman to kill only a few, or a dozen, early or mid-stage Deity Transformation Realm Green Demons, it was not worth it in Ye Qingxiao's view.

Just now, if it weren't for the fact that the passage at the border between the Xuanli Realm and the Blood Moon Realm was too small, causing the Deity Transformation Realm Green Demons summoned by Prince Xieyue to be gathered too closely,

the Green Demon Deity Transformation Realm powerhouses in the two-realm coalition would not have been killed by nearly ninety percent by Ye Qingxiao's three Seventh-Order Upper Grade talismans.

Of course, part of the reason was also that Ye Qingxiao activated Seventh-Order Upper Grade attack talismans.

After all, the power of a Seventh-Order Upper Grade attack talisman is a weakened version comparable to a strike from a late-stage Void Penetration Realm great power, roughly equivalent to eighty percent of the power of a strike from a late-stage Void Penetration Realm great power.

Although the talisman's pressure and locking ability are not enough to fully lock onto a powerhouse of the same realm, and there is a high probability of being dodged by a powerhouse of the same realm if one is not careful,

using a Seventh-Order talisman to suppress and kill Deity Transformation Realm powerhouses is still easy.

Therefore, Prince Xieyue was no longer prepared to play it safe.

Or rather, after ninety percent of the Deity Transformation Realm powerhouses of the Blood Moon and Xuedu Realms were ambushed and suppressed by Ye Qingxiao using the power of Seventh-Order Upper Grade talismans, he no longer had the capital to delay.

Although he did not know if the Human Ye Qingxiao, who made him sense a hint of crisis, had any other hidden cards besides the Seventh-Order talismans,

Prince Xieyue believed that relying on his Two-Star Low-Grade Spirit Treasure, the Xieyue Sword, whose foundation had not yet been exhausted, and other Seventh-Order talismans, he should still have quite a bit of certainty in suppressing and killing Ye Qingxiao.

It was just that if he exhausted most of his hidden cards purely to suppress and kill Ye Qingxiao,

then he would not have full certainty in dealing with the remaining Human Race Deity Transformation Realm powerhouses of the Xuanli Realm and conquering the entire Xuanli Realm.

Prince Xieyue, standing in place, felt his face change. For the first time, he felt it was tricky to invade the Xuanli Realm.

Taking a deep breath, looking at Ye Qingxiao several hundred miles away, he was still hesitant.

If the Human Race Deity Transformation Realm cultivators of the Xuanli Realm could also be gathered together, even if Ye Qingxiao still had many Seventh-Order talismans as hidden cards, he would have full certainty in relying on the power of the Xieyue Sword to seal and suppress all the Human Race Deity Transformation Realm powerhouses.

He wouldn't have to be as conflicted as he was now.

Just as Prince Xieyue was hesitating, streams of light suddenly appeared behind Ye Qingxiao.

These streams of light were precisely the hundreds of Human Race Deity Transformation Realm powerhouses who had sensed the energy fluctuations at the border between the two realms and had come specifically.

"Senior Brother, what happened? Why has this borderland between the two realms suddenly become like this?"

Facing Xiao Yixian, who was the first to arrive at Ye Qingxiao's side, looked at the borderland between the two realms that had collapsed several thousand meters and was now emitting thick smoke and flowing with magma, and asked Ye Qingxiao in surprise.

Before Ye Qingxiao could reply, several more figures landed around Ye Qingxiao one after another.

"Senior Brother Ye!"

"Senior Brother Ye, are you alright?"

"This... Senior Brother Ye, what happened here?"

The few who came later, like Ye Qingxiao and Facing Xiao Yixian, were all direct disciples of the Profound Yi Tianzong.

Among them, the three strongest, ranking only below Ye Qingxiao and Facing Xiao Yixian, were Bai Qingxia, Leng Qingjian, and Gu Fangqin.

Besides Bai Qingxia, Leng Qingjian, and Gu Fangqin,

there were other direct disciples of the Profound Yi Tianzong and many Deity Transformation Realm powerhouses of the Xuanli Realm arriving one after another behind Ye Qingxiao, looking at the terrifying scene before them in surprise.

Just then, Prince Xieyue on the opposite side looked at the hundreds of Human Race Deity Transformation Realm powerhouses gathered around Ye Qingxiao, and his eyes suddenly lit up as he let out a strange laugh:

"Hehehe, you've come at the right time."

He had originally been hesitating whether to revive the Two-Star Low-Grade Spirit Treasure, the Xieyue Sword.

He felt that wasting the foundation energy within the Xieyue Sword to forcibly revive it just to deal with a mere Ye Qingxiao was making a mountain out of a molehill.

Yet he hadn't expected that while he was hesitating, the Human Race of the Xuanli Realm would exceed his expectations and actually take the initiative to gather here to seek death.

Now, as long as he revived his Xieyue Sword in one fell swoop to seal this area and suppress and kill all the Human Race Deity Transformation Realm powerhouses here, including Ye Qingxiao, then even without the two-realm coalition, he could still take the Human Race's Xuanli Realm.

"Heaven is truly helping me!"

Shouting excitedly in his heart, Prince Xieyue sank his spiritual sense into the Xieyue Sword at his waist and decisively revived the power of the Xieyue Sword.

"Hum!" "Hum!" "Hum!"

Only to hear a series of spatial resonance sounds, the Xieyue Sword at Prince Xieyue's waist began to vibrate continuously, and a terrifying power of rules revived from within the Xieyue Sword and spread toward this heaven and earth at high speed.

On the opposite side, the Human Race powerhouses who had been confused by Prince Xieyue's strange laughter felt this power and their expressions changed one after another.

And Ye Qingxiao, who had already felt uneasy upon hearing Prince Xieyue's strange laughter, sensed this power, instantly locked onto the source of this power, and exclaimed while staring at the reviving Xieyue Sword: "This... this is a Low-Grade Spirit Treasure?"

Immediately, Ye Qingxiao looked at the power of rules rapidly spreading from the Xieyue Sword, and he instantly guessed Prince Xieyue's intention. Thus, Ye Qingxiao's expression changed, and he shouted to the hundreds of Human Race Deity Transformation Realm cultivators behind him:

"Run, quickly disperse and flee this place!"

Hearing Ye Qingxiao's shout, the many Human Race Deity Transformation Realm powerhouses who had already sensed that something was wrong immediately scattered and fled toward the far rear.

Unfortunately, how could their fleeing speed compare to the rapidly spreading power of rules?

In just a few breaths, the power of rules spread out from the Xieyue Sword had completely shrouded and sealed this heaven and earth.

Seeing this scene, Ye Qingxiao's expression turned unsightly.

He hadn't expected Prince Xieyue to revive a Low-Grade Spirit Treasure at this time.

With a move of his spiritual sense, he took out a Seventh-Order Upper Grade attack talisman again, preparing to activate the power of the Seventh-Order Upper Grade attack talisman to see if he could break the seal of this rule power.

However, Ye Qingxiao himself did not have much certainty.

After all, although the power of a Seventh-Order talisman is also Void Penetration power, it is water without a source and lacks follow-up strength; how could it compare to a Low-Grade Spirit Treasure comparable to a Void Penetration Realm powerhouse after revival?

But, if he didn't try, how could he be willing? "Hum!"

In a flash, not long after the rule power of the Xieyue Sword shrouded this area, the Seventh-Order Upper Grade attack talisman in Ye Qingxiao's hand had already been activated.

Only to see an icy blue dazzling energy strike the gray rule barrier above at high speed.

"Bang!" "Boom!" "Boom—!"

In an instant, intense rule energy swept in all directions.

Caught off guard, many Human Race Deity Transformation Realm cultivators who couldn't dodge in time were severely injured.

If it weren't for the fact that the aftermath of this rule energy had been neutralized quite a bit by the power of the rule barrier above, and that the Human Race Deity Transformation Realm powerhouses had already retreated a considerable distance toward the far rear under Ye Qingxiao's reminder,

otherwise, some early-stage Human Race Deity Transformation Realm cultivators with insufficient strength would probably have fallen directly.

After the energy subsided, looking at the place where the two Void Penetration powers collided, Ye Qingxiao's heart sank slightly.

Although the power of the Seventh-Order Upper Grade attack talisman he activated successfully cracked the gray rule barrier above, the cracks were recovering at high speed.

"Ye Qingxiao, is it? Hehehe, don't waste your effort."

Several hundred miles away, Prince Xieyue looked at Ye Qingxiao's actions, and seeing that the power of the talisman did not completely break the Xieyue Sword's rule barrier, he felt relieved while also unable to help laughing arrogantly.

Perhaps afraid that further delay would lead to complications, or perhaps reluctant to part with the foundation energy that the Xieyue Sword was consuming every moment after revival,

Prince Xieyue, after his arrogance, decisively urged the Xieyue Sword to kill Ye Qingxiao.

At the same time, the rule energy dissipated from the Xieyue Sword gathered into sword shadows and sped toward the other Human Race Deity Transformation Realm powerhouses.

During the flight, the Xieyue Sword magnified at high speed, and the intense rule pressure erupted from the sword body instantly locked onto all the Human Race powerhouses present.

"Not good!"

Seeing this scene,

Ye Qingxiao, sensing a death crisis, no longer had time to care about the other Human Race Deity Transformation Realm powerhouses.

He stepped forward to block in front of the other direct disciples of the Profound Yi Tianzong and activated his last Seventh-Order talisman instantly.

"Boom!" "Hum!" "Boom—!"

The power of the Seventh-Order talisman collided with the Xieyue Sword, erupting into another wave of terrifying rule energy fluctuations.

Under the impact of this powerful rule energy, the Xieyue Sword was directly sent flying several hundred miles away.

But Ye Qingxiao did not feel any joy.

Because after the power of the Seventh-Order talisman he activated dissipated, the Xieyue Sword locked onto him again at high speed and pierced toward him rapidly.

"It's over!"

With the rapidly flying Xieyue Sword reflected in his pupils, Ye Qingxiao, who had exhausted all his Seventh-Order talismans, fell into despair in his heart.

At this very moment, the figures of Ye Qingxuan and Yu Xueqing appeared in Ye Qingxiao's mind, and he murmured with a look of shame:

"I'm sorry, Qingxuan, Xueqing, I really can't return this time."

Just as Ye Qingxiao was in despair, a palm suddenly rested on Ye Qingxiao's shoulder and pulled him backward.

As Ye Qingxiao showed a look of astonishment, a voice that feigned calmness but faintly revealed a sense of smugness sounded in Ye Qingxiao's ear.

"Senior Brother, leave the rest to Junior Brother!"

The next moment, in the line of sight of Ye Qingxiao, who had been pulled to the rear: Facing Xiao Yixian was seen standing tall with his head held high, his left hand behind his back, and a miniature long spear covered in fiery red patterns floating above his right palm.

"Hum!" "Hum!" "Hum!"

"Taixu Flame Spear, go!"

Following a series of spatial resonance sounds and a light shout from Facing Xiao Yixian,

the miniature long spear floating on Facing Xiao Yixian's right hand magnified at a speed invisible to the naked eye and shot out toward the Xieyue Sword.

At the moment of activation, the rule power spreading from the Taixu Flame Spear instantly entangled with the rule sword shadows condensed by the Xieyue Sword, saving the group of Human Race Deity Transformation Realm powerhouses in the far rear.

"Boom!" "Boom!" "Boom!" Following a series of roars, in just a few breaths, Facing Xiao Yixian's Taixu Flame Spear had collided head-on with the Xieyue Sword hundreds of times.

On the opposite side, Prince Xieyue looked at the flame-shrouded long spear that was not at a disadvantage while contending with the Xieyue Sword, and his expression turned gloomy, saying word by word:

"A long spear at the Two-Star Low-Grade Spirit Treasure level?"

Looking at the figure standing in front of Ye Qingxiao at this moment, Prince Xieyue said incredulously:

"I originally thought that Ye Qingxiao was the greatest danger on this trip, but I didn't expect that the stumbling block on this trip would be someone else."

Seeming to sense Prince Xieyue's gaze several hundred miles away, Facing Xiao Yixian, standing in front of Ye Qingxiao, revealed a mouthful of white teeth and grinned at Prince Xieyue, even waving his hand.

Seeing this scene, Prince Xieyue was furious and couldn't help but clench his fists.

At this time, Ye Qingxiao, who had been pulled behind by Facing Xiao Yixian, finally reacted and said with a wry smile:

"Junior Brother Xiao, you really hid it deep!"
