Chapter 1221

Over a dozen guards were sent flying in an instant, crashing to the ground in total disarray.

Ximen Wudi sped along and soon arrived at the Yinyang Sect's council hall.

"Who!" A furious voice rang out from inside the council hall.

A man with hair and beard entirely white, his face covered in stubble, rose from the seat of honor and glared viciously toward the door.

But the moment he looked up and clearly saw the face of the one who had come, the man's expression changed drastically.

Then a savage look suddenly flashed in his eyes.

"You little beast, I didn't expect you'd still dare to come knocking and seek death!"

Boom!

The instant the man's words fell, a massive black dragon phantom suddenly appeared, carrying the force of ten thousand thunders, and lunged at Ximen Wudi!

"Hm?" Ximen Wudi narrowed his eyes, tilted his body slightly, and narrowly dodged it.

But the black dragon did not vanish; still wrapped in a vast, overwhelming aura, it continued charging forward.

Ximen Wudi's gaze sharpened abruptly. He extended a finger and jabbed it toward the dragon's head.

Rumble~

With a muffled crash, the dragon's head shattered, black mist scattering in all directions. At the same time, Ximen Wudi's body trembled violently, and a thread of bright red blood seeped from the corner of his mouth.

Ximen Wudi wiped the corner of his mouth, then looked up and stared coldly at the man.

"Mid Golden Core?!"

"But it seems... a bit lacking compared to what I imagined!" Ximen Wudi's indifferent tone was full of provocation.

"Arrogance!" The man roared furiously, swung his right arm again, and a colossal black dragon claw swept toward Ximen Wudi as if to blot out the sky.

"Heh." Ximen Wudi gave a cold laugh, stepped into the Kunpeng Nine Heavens, his body turning into a phantom as he dodged swiftly.

"Argh!" The man's claws missed several times in a row, and his entire arm went numb.

"Break for me!" With a great shout, the man's muscles tensed all over, and he hurled a fierce punch at Ximen Wudi.

Ximen Wudi's figure flashed again, dodging it with ease.

"Damn it!" Seeing that Ximen Wudi's speed was somehow growing faster and faster, the man was greatly alarmed.

If this went on, he would sooner or later be worn down to nothing.

The man bit hard on the tip of his tongue, spurted out a mouthful of essence blood, his arm suddenly swelling to twice its size, and smashed a punch into the void.

"Ao~"

With a tremendous roar, the black dragon phantom reappeared, opened its blood-filled maw, and lunged madly at Ximen Wudi to tear him apart.

"Haha, die!" Seeing the black dragon had taken shape, the man could not help but laugh wildly at the sky, so excited he nearly leaped up.

"Heh, mere petty tricks!" Ximen Wudi scoffed disdainfully.

Then both palms thrust out together, and a cyan giant dragon roared forth, swelling with the wind, in an instant growing several zhang long, raising its head and howling as it pounced on the black dragon phantom.

Boom~

With a tremendous crash, the cyan giant dragon smashed the black dragon phantom to pieces, then, its momentum undiminished, charged toward the man.

The man was greatly shocked, hurriedly gathering his true qi and raising his sword to block.

Bang~

The man's chest took a heavy blow, as if struck by lightning. He spat out a mouthful of fresh blood and crashed to the ground in a sorry heap.

"Hmph!" Ximen Wudi gave a cold snort, lifted his leg and kicked, planting a foot squarely on the man's chest.

Crack!

The man's chestbone caved in, and a trickle of fresh blood slid down from the corner of his mouth.

"S-spare... spare me!" The man begged in terror.

"Tell me, how many people does the Yinyang Sect still have?" Ximen Wudi asked.

The man's eyes darted about, his face full of hesitation.

Ximen Wudi's brows shot up, and his fingers slowly curled inward.

"Ah, I'll talk, I'll tell you everything!" Seeing the murderous glint naked in Ximen Wudi's eyes, the man hurriedly wailed in agony.

"The Yinyang Sect has a total of two thousand two hundred and thirty-eight people."

Hearing this, Ximen Wudi's gaze suddenly turned icy.

"Over two thousand!"

"Good. Since that's the case, today I will bathe the Yinyang Sect in blood!"

"No!" Hearing this, the man was scared out of his wits. He struggled with all his might to get up, retreating as he shouted.

"Senior, please spare me! I am willing to serve you as my lord, to be your ox and your horse in repayment!"

"Too late!" Ximen Wudi shook his head.

"If you want to kill me, you must bear the consequences!" Ximen Wudi finished speaking, kicked off the ground, shot out like a cheetah, and charged straight at the man.

"Hold!" At that moment, a sharp shout rang out from within the council hall.

Whoosh!

Then an old man leaped into the air and landed in front of the man, blocking him.

"Who are you!" Seeing the other's deep cultivation, Ximen Wudi knew the newcomer meant no good, and could not help but grow wary.

"This old man is Ouyang Batian, Sect Master of the Yinyang Sect. Who on earth are you!" Ouyang Batian stared at Ximen Wudi with an arrogant face.

"The Sect Master of the Yinyang Sect!" Ximen Wudi's brows furrowed. He had not expected this fellow to actually be the Yinyang Sect's Sect Master — this saved him quite a bit of trouble.

"Sect Master Ouyang, I am Ximen Wudi!"

"So you're that Ximen Wudi who destroyed the Yinyang Sect and forced the Sect Master to cripple his own cultivation?!" Ouyang Batian's eyes bulged as he roared furiously.

"Yes!" Ximen Wudi looked at him without a shred of fear and answered in a clear, ringing voice.

"Bastard, you actually dare to wipe out my entire Yinyang Sect! This old man will tear you into ten thousand pieces and scatter your ashes to the wind!" Ouyang Batian roared, his eyes blood-red and his hatred surging to the heavens.

"Then we'll have to see whether you have that kind of ability!" Ximen Wudi smiled faintly, his gaze contemptuous, like a sovereign looking down upon the world.

"You..." Ouyang Batian was cowed by Ximen Wudi's gaze, and instantly choked on his rage.

Then, suddenly, a burst of strange laughter rang out.

"Hahaha, this old man is a dignified mid-stage Golden Core powerhouse — how could the likes of you ants possibly defeat me?"

"Today, this old man will personally tear you into ten thousand pieces, to comfort the spirits of the Yinyang Sect disciples who perished!"

Having said that, Ouyang Batian sucked in a fierce breath, his body instantly rising by more than a chi. The surrounding Earth Yuan Qi of heaven and earth surged toward him, converging within his body and forming the shape of a giant axe. His power abruptly multiplied several times over.

Weng~

Then, the great axe blazed with brilliant light and hacked down toward Ximen Wudi.

Seeing this, Ximen Wudi's pupils suddenly contracted.

"What kind of technique is this!"

1018 is extremely similar to that jade pendant from the Xuantian Sect

Although Ximen Wudi did not understand what a spell was, the terrifying pressure of that axe chopping toward him was undeniably real. Ximen Wudi felt as though a mountain were pressing down on him, and even breathing became much more difficult.

Ximen Wudi did not dare to be careless. He slammed his palms together, and true qi erupted from within his body, forming a protective qi barrier.

Boom!

The axe hacked viciously onto Ximen Wudi's qi barrier. Instantly a tremendous crash rang out, the barrier shook violently for a moment, and finally exploded with a bang.

Deng deng deng~

Ximen Wudi retreated three steps in quick succession before finally stopping, yet a thick shade of shock surfaced in his eyes.

Although this Ouyang Batian was only at early-stage Jin Dan, the power of this strike was by no means ordinary!

"Eh?" Ouyang Batian was also greatly shocked that his axe had destroyed the qi barrier.

He had thought that with this one strike, he would surely grievously wound Ximen Wudi — or even kill him.

But he had not expected that Ximen Wudi would merely retreat three steps before steadying himself, which left Ouyang Batian utterly astonished.

"It seems this old man underestimated you!" A fierce, vicious light flickered in Ouyang Batian's eyes.

Shua!

Ouyang Batian's body suddenly accelerated, and in the blink of an eye he was in front of Ximen Wudi, sweeping out a horizontal slash with his blade.
