Chapter 1581: Stubbornly Refusing Evil

The Formation Flag crafted by Qiong Qi was truly fierce, standing firm against two strikes of the Underworld God, and only then was the outer Formation completely shattered by the Underworld God.

Moreover, because this set of Formation Flags has multiple configurations, the damaged portion of the Formation does not hinder the undamaged parts from continuing to operate.

The Underworld God saw Ye Liuyun dash into the Side Courtyard, and the death mark was also in that direction, so without further thought, he charged toward the Side Courtyard.

Although he discerned that the Side Courtyard had a Formation, his skill and daring made him pay little heed.

He forgot that those who drown are usually those who know water!

Some matters, once he regrets them, will already be too late.

At the Side Courtyard entrance, more than ten early-stage Tianzun Yin Souls rushed out to block the Underworld God, and he slashed them all down with a single sword.

For a Divine Realm strongman, killing these low-level Martial Cultivators is simply too easy.

Don't be fooled by the apparent small gap; in the Tianzun Realm, each tier's difference is as vast as heaven and earth.

From afar, Ye Liuyun saw with his Golden Pupil and marveled at the Underworld God's power.

After the Underworld God surged into the Side Courtyard, Yan Tu and Gui Shou Yi Dao immediately began their attacks.

Because Gui Shou Yi Dao was weaponless, his attack power dropped sharply and his defense weakened; a single sword strike from the Underworld God split him in two, and the Yin Soul's body vanished like smoke.

Yan Tu still wielded a treasured sword, which barely allowed him to hold on a bit longer.

At this moment, the Underworld God suddenly sensed that Ye Liuyun was not inside the Side Courtyard.

Before he could think further, the Formation activated, enveloping the Side Courtyard.

Ye Liuyun appeared outside the Formation and began casting a spell on him.

Meanwhile, early-stage Tianzun Yin Souls continuously entered the Formation, launching a revolving battle against the Underworld God.

These Yin Souls could replenish some Yin Qi for the Underworld God, but far insufficient for his consumption.

The Underworld God now not only had to contend with Ye Liuyun's spell, but also the Yin Souls' revolving assault, causing his consumption to grow ever larger.

He had previously blocked Lei Ming's jade-transformed Dragon Bone strike, which consumed the most.

Then came the slash that split the outer Formation and the strike that killed Gui Shou Yi Dao—both were full-force attacks.

So now he vaguely guessed that Ye Liuyun intended to drain him.

He glanced at the Formation, estimating that breaking this treasure might not be possible with a single sword.

And when he attacks with all his might, Ye Liuyun's Buddha Light Power will seize the chance to further sap his life force.

"Spell?"

Yet what is produced is Buddha Light Power! Is it a Buddhist Dao cultivation method?

Was he chanting sutras while casting it?

The Underworld God looked at Ye Liuyun's trembling lips and thought he was chanting sutras.

This kind of spell that can generate Buddha Light Power out of thin air was something even the Underworld God had never heard of before.

Nevertheless, he stubbornly refused to believe it.

He is a Divine Realm strongman; although his abilities are limited by this Heavenly Earth, he is the strongest in the world.

The weapon he holds is also among the strongest.

He does not believe that a fourth-tier Martial Cultivator could kill him.

For a Divine Realm strongman, killing a ninth-tier Tianzun Martial Cultivator is like killing an ant; slaying a group of ninth-tier Tianzun Martial Cultivators is like killing a swarm of ants.

Now these ants have forced him to draw the Underworld God's Sword, which he regards as a humiliating disgrace.

So Ye Liuyun and his helpers must die today!

At this moment, his will poured entirely into the Underworld God's Sword, which he swung toward Yan Tu.

"Let you see the difference between a Divine Realm strongman and you ants!"

That powerful death will was even felt by Ye Liuyun outside the Formation.

"Very strong!"

But Ye Liuyun only muttered a praise in his heart.

Because the Underworld God's formidable death will also sparked his fighting spirit.

He has walked this path, facing countless crises and challenges, never allowing his cultivation to slack.

And merely because he obtained a few treasures, he must endure the Underworld God's endless pursuit, living for years under the shadow of death.

"Why should I have to die?

Even an ant can still chew down an elephant!"

Ye Liuyun suddenly felt that throughout his journey he had constantly been battling his own fate.

In the martial world, the strong eat the weak!

He never retreated during his growth and strengthening.

This time is no different!

"Come on! Let's settle this once and for all!"

Ye Liuyun's fighting spirit ignited within his heart.

The overwhelming pressure the Underworld God brought actually strengthened Ye Liuyun's resolve.

He has now forgotten fear, possessing only focused, calm analysis.

He witnessed the might of the Underworld God's sword and simultaneously calculated its consumption.

The Underworld God's will within that sword has already filled Yan Tu's eyes with despair.

He only now realized how powerful the Underworld God truly is.

"Is this the strength of a Divine Realm strongman?

Or the unresistable will of the Underworld Sovereign?"

The fleeting thought in his mind caused the Yin Soul's body to be sliced by the Underworld God's sword, slowly dissipating.

Continue!

But Ye Liuyun calmly let his duplicate transmit Yin Souls into the Formation, even having the duplicate place the Foreign Tribe Yin Souls from the Hundred-Refined Soul Banner into the Formation.

Even the Foreign Tribe of the ninth Tianzun would not hesitate to be consumed.

His sorcery is still locked in a stalemate with the Underworld God.

When the Underworld God previously unleashed a death will, it once held the advantage.

The Yin Qi enveloping his body abruptly deflected some of the Buddha Light Power generated by Ye Liuyun's sorcery.

However, Ye Liuyun steadied his resolve, and after calming down, regained the advantage.

Buddha Light Power once again tightly enveloped the Underworld God, suppressing its True Essence and Yin Qi, causing it to shrink slowly.

The Underworld God's True Essence and Yin Qi, of course, continue to be consumed.

For him, killing a few Yin Souls is easy; the most troublesome thing is still the effect of Ye Liuyun's sorcery on him.

Although Ye Liuyun's sorcery has not yet affected his body.

He tried to find a moment to break the Formation, but Yin Souls kept surfacing within it, and even many high‑rank Foreign Tribe of the Tianzun appeared, so he could not act for a while.

In the short time he spent inside the Formation, he had already slain hundreds of Yin Souls of the Tianzun Realm.

But he was not in a hurry.

He intends to annihilate all the power surrounding Ye Liuyun, to show him what a lofty sovereign truly is.

A strong one of the Divine Realm can never be matched by a mere ant.

He not only wants to kill Ye Liuyun, but also to slaughter all his aides before his eyes, seize everything of his, and make him lose all belief in despair.

The Underworld God not only seeks to kill people, but also to eradicate hearts.

He wants everyone to understand that he is the strongest in this world.

He wants everyone to see the consequences of rebelling against him.
