Chapter 107: Yao Xi
"Not only that, this Holy Body's combat power is unmatched. Someone saw him once fight a Four Extremes Famous Master, and his Wanqi Mother Qi Source Ding was as heavy as mountains, directly smashing that master into blood mist."
"Strange, strange. Even in ancient times, there were those born with the Ancient Desolate Holy Body, but they basically could not cultivate. Even those lucky enough to open the Bitter Sea stopped at the Early Stage of Cultivation. The Holy Body of this age not only has combat power comparable to a Famous Master, but also possesses a Ding refined from a heaven-and-earth marvel. Is heaven heralding the rise of the Holy Body Lineage once more?"
"Regardless, there cannot be another person with such supreme bearing as Jiang Xuan in this age. Such a figure might not appear even once in past ages."
……
Donghuang Southern Region, Lingxu Dongtian. Immortal Cranes danced, spiritual springs tinkled—a scene of celestial atmosphere.
Ever since Jiang Xuan passed through Yan Domain and helped the people of Lingxu Dongtian improve their cultivation levels, Lingxu Dongtian had an atmosphere of renewal and fresh beginnings, its strength directly crushing the other five Wudongtian of Yan Domain.
Now, within the Lingxu Great Hall, Sect Master Li, the four Supreme Elders, and many Elders gathered together, discussing animatedly.
"My Lingxu Dongtian has taken in a fine Disciple, forcing even the great powers of the Demon Clan to yield." Elder Wu Qingfeng's expression was filled with endless emotion.
"How fortunate to have taught Jiang Xuan for a time. The most correct thing I have done in this life was discovering Jiang Xuan's Cultivation Talent and cultivating him to the maximum extent." After a long while, Sect Master Li spoke, marveling endlessly at his former Disciple Jiang Xuan.
Northern Domain, Holy City.
This was an enormously huge city, covering who knows how many Wanli. Through the changes of ages and the rise and fall of dynasties, who knows how many dynasties perished and how many rose, but this Holy City never changed. Its existence was even longer than some Sacred Lands.
Within this Holy City dwelled great powers from distant Nanling, and Royal Clans from the Central State remained year-round. At this moment, they all knew Jiang Xuan's Name.
"Hahaha, Old Peng King, every time I see your arrogant bird head I get annoyed. Your eyes are even on top of your head. Every time you boast that your descendant has the ambition of a Great Emperor. Haha, now both grandfather and grandson have been beaten. Someone, prepare the carriage. This Seat wants to reminisce with Old Peng King."
"Pity, Old Peng King's foundation is greatly damaged. We cannot make a move to spar with him. Haha, truly a pity!" said an elder of a Royal Clan from the Central State.
For the past month, all of Donghuang was filled with talk of Jiang Xuan, unable to be Calm.
At this moment, Jiang Xuan ended his Closed-door Cultivation. He prepared to go find Ye Fan. As for special constitutions, in this world, who could compare to Holy Body Ye Fan?
"I hope the mysteries of the Holy Body do not disappoint me!"
Jiang Xuan Slowly Rose, holding Xiao Nian Nian's hand, Stepped Out, and tore through the Void toward the Holy City.
……
"Yao Xi, surrender. Come with us to meet the Supreme Elder, and there may be a path to life. Although you are a Yaoguang Saintess, you cannot withstand us Ten Great Disciples."
This was a man around twenty years old, with long black hair and skin of ancient bronze, as if forged from steel, extremely heroic, with sharp eyes that even carried some aggression. At a glance, he was a very domineering person. By his side were also three Companions, standing side by side. One had a golden Gourd floating above his head, one had a Five-Colored Feather Fan floating above his head, and the last held a Silver Steel Ring.
"Gu Litian, no wonder you cannot contend with Yaoguang. You have not the slightest heart of a strong expert, merely content with the identity of a Disciple of a Recluse Elder."
At this moment, Yao Xi's originally floating beautiful hair was somewhat disheveled from battle, a trace of blood overflowed from the corner of her mouth, but her unblemished celestial beauty was not diminished. Her skin was whiter than snow, graceful like an immortal, Immortal Bone Jade Flesh, appearing extremely holy, making one unwilling to desecrate her.
"Too much talk is useless. Let your hands show the truth." Gu Litian stepped forward step by step.
Yao Xi spat from her sleeve, and a Guanghan Palace rose with the wind, protecting her whole body. Until today, she had resisted the other six great experts and was now at the end of her strength. She did not expect to be pursued again by these four others. Today, she was probably truly at her time of death.
A purple small figure rushed from Yao Xi's brow, holding an Immortal Sword. Sword Radiance danced, immortal radiance shone, and it charged toward Gu Litian.
"Hmph!" A Purple Star Body Armor appeared at her brow and forehead bone. Obviously, Gu Litian had anticipated Yao Xi's powerful Divine Sense and made preparations.
Indeed so. Yao Xi's Divine Sense was vast as the sea. Among the Young Generation, she could directly kill enemies with Divine Sense. During the Saintess struggle, her powerful Divine Sense was famous among many Sacred Land Families. To fight her, one had to first protect their Sea of Consciousness.
After the purple small figure rushed from her brow, Yao Xi's originally slightly pale, beautiful face appeared even more sorrowful.
Gu Litian's qi and blood Soared to the sky. His whole body turned ancient bronze, lightning crackled around him, crystal clear and radiant, with dragon qi condensing in strands.
He threw a punch. The earth beneath Gu Litian's feet shook violently. His movements were grand and open, his arms strong like dragons, rigid and Domineering, like a dragon and like an elephant.
"Puff!"
Yao Xi was like a kite with its string cut, Spurt Blood. The blood was as red and brilliant as flower petals, staining her white clothes red, falling to the ground and blooming into red lotuses.
"I smell the flavor of the Saintess's blood. Rather than spare your life, I will imprison you forever. I will let the world know that the Saintess is nothing more than this—just my defeated subordinate. In the future, I must still defeat Yaoguang Shengzi. This Shengzi, he deserves it, so how could I not?" Gu Litian was like a madman, extremely hideous, speaking nonsense. The three beside him were indifferent, obviously knowing Gu Litian's Personality was like this.
"Senior Brother Gu has great ambitions. The Emperor Road may still have a place for us." said the one with the Five-Colored Feather Fan above his head.
"Indeed. Even that Jiang Xuan is merely ahead for a time. In the future, I will surely make him crawl beneath my feet, then take his head and offer it to my master." Gu Litian laughed loudly, as if Jiang Xuan was already kneeling beneath his feet.
While Yao Xi felt sorrow and despair in her heart, she also found it laughable. The Ten Great Disciples taught by this Recluse Elder were actually like this—ignorant and unaware. And she was about to perish at the hands of such mediocre, incompetent, and arrogant people.
"Someone wants to take my head?" A vast and boundless voice came from the Tianqiong.
The Great Sun blazed, the weather warm and fervent, but the four of them were now sweating cold sweat, not daring to move.
A figure walked slowly from the horizon, like an immortal descending to the world, heroic and divine, radiance of ten thousand zhang. At this moment, even the sun seemed to have lost its luster.
Jiang Xuan's figure crossed the sky. Endless Momentum was like an Ancient Tai Gu Shen Shan spanning the Void, pressing the Tian Di into collapse. Merely standing there, motionless, made the four not dare to breathe, as if they would suffocate and die in the next moment.
His gaze fell, looking directly at Gu Litian. His tone was flat:
"Was it you who wanted to take my head? And wanted me to crawl beneath your feet?"
Gu Litian trembled all over, his mind and soul shaken. At this moment, his Primordial Spirit and even his flesh seemed to really crack. Traces of blood seeped out from between his hair and skin.
"No... spare me, ah..."
Boom!
Gu Litian exploded with a bang into a mass of Blood Mist.
"The human body's treasures are marvelous and endless. Why not be a good person, but instead become half-human, half-demon!"
