Chapter 367: A Brutal and Earth-Shattering Battle (Part 2)

A Heaven-Reaching Blade Intent stretching for hundreds of miles soared into the sky. Like a falling star, it carried a hint of the Divine Power of a Domain as it slashed violently toward the descending crimson star.

BANG!

The two incredibly powerful attacks collided fiercely in midair, instantly creating an earth-shattering explosion. Huge swathes of the surrounding space shattered, and endless gales of Gang Qi surged forth.

TSS!

A moment after the blade’s gleam and the bloody glow illuminated each other, the incomparably sharp saber light violently cleaved the massive, hundreds-of-miles-long crimson Fist Seal in two. It then surged toward Blood Nether Celestial like a great river.

“As I thought. I knew you were the strongest of the three from the Human Race.” Gazing at the Heaven-Reaching Blade Intent pouring down from the sky, Blood Nether Celestial showed no fear. His face was perfectly calm as he spoke faintly, “But this alone isn’t enough to defeat me.”

Blood Nether Celestial’s Purple Gold Black Robe whipped about as his crimson hair danced wildly. A cold gleam flickered in his scarlet pupils. The vast Demon Qi within him suddenly erupted, transforming into a pillar of blood-red light that shot into the heavens and pierced the clouds. In the next instant, a three-foot-long, entirely black saber appeared in his hand. He then stepped onto the air,

and his entire being became like a bolt of blood-red lightning, tearing through the sky. He simultaneously swung the dark saber, which emanated a sharp aura, and unleashed a terrifying Sword Qi. It shattered the firmament, carrying an immense power as it slashed toward the Star Blade Qi.

TSS!!

The Star Blade Qi, as brilliant as a galaxy, collided violently with the dark saber gleam. The impact instantly triggered a terrifying explosion, shattering the space for hundreds of miles around. Horrifying aftershocks blasted outwards in all directions. Below, mountains collapsed one after another, and the earth split open with countless hideous fissures!

“I invite you to your death!”

Seeing his attack had failed, a cold light flashed in Gu Yun’s eyes. He spoke, and his chilling voice seemed to drop the very temperature of the world. He immediately executed the Three Thousand Roaming Dragon Steps, shattering the air. His body moved like a proud dragon, swift as Thunder, tearing through space to appear instantly behind Blood Nether Celestial.

He swung his long saber in a downward vertical slash, shattering space. The blade howled as it cut through the air, carrying an ultimate Sword Intent as it hacked violently toward Blood Nether Celestial.

“You? A mere member of the Human Race thinks you can execute me? What a joke!”

A sneer appeared on Blood Nether Celestial’s handsome yet sinister face, and a bloody glint flashed in his scarlet eyes. “After I wipe you all out, I will go and devour the millions of blood-meals in Lingxiao City. Tell me, which of the natives in this Celestial Essence Realm can possibly kill me?”

Faced with Gu Yun’s lightning-fast appearance behind him and the sharp slash aimed at his neck, Blood Nether Celestial showed no sign of panic. Relying on his vast experience, he spun around instantly. The entirely black long saber in his hand swung upward in a fierce parry, making a sound like ripping void. Like a blood moon, it struck out in a sudden slash.

CLANG!

The Flame Soul Thunder Saber, crackling with lightning, collided violently with the long saber that radiated terrifying blood-red Demon Qi. The impact instantly produced a metallic clang that echoed through the heavens, sending out circular ripples from the point of impact.

At this moment, standing high in the void, Qin Xiao and Du Yuan felt their hearts tremble at the power of the two combatants.

“We can’t let this go on, Fellow Daoist Qin. We must intervene,” Du Yuan said to Qin Xiao in a low voice, his aged face grave.

As soon as he finished speaking, Du Yuan took a step forward, sending out ripples like those on water. The Magical Power in his body erupted completely, and a pale blue Dao Rhythm surged around him. A look of determination flashed in his eyes.

“Vast Sea Heaven-Breaking Palm!”

Du Yuan extended a palm into the air, gathering boundless Magical Power. Seawater suddenly gushed from the void, covering hundreds of miles of the sky. It then condensed into a colossal palm of a vast sea that blotted out the sun, radiating a terrifying momentum. In the next instant, the worldly qi radiated by the giant palm locked onto Blood Nether Celestial.

It then crushed down through the void. As if descending from beyond the heavens, it bore down on Blood Nether Celestial with supreme might!

Seeing this, Qin Xiao—who was currently suspended in midair, clad in a black shirt, with a square face and a dignified air, and surrounded by a profound Dao Rhythm—acted decisively. He quickly made his move. The immense Magical Power in his body surged, and a dark gleam flashed in his eyes as his fingers formed an abstruse Seal.

“Dark Dragon Roar Technique!”

Under the pull of Qin Xiao’s boundless Magical Power, the void around him instantly condensed into a terrifying, profound, and majestic giant dragon hundreds of miles long.

ROAR!

The dark giant dragon let out a roar that caused the entire sky to tremble violently. The spatial barriers between heaven and earth began to crack like glass. In the next instant, the majestic, profound dragon soared into the air and charged toward Blood Nether Celestial!

CLANG! CLANG! CLANG! At this moment, Gu Yun and Blood Nether Celestial were flickering and colliding madly in the void, creating a series of metallic clangs. The surrounding space shattered continuously, revealing one deep, abyssal fissure after another, from which leaked a chaotic aura that would make one tremble.

“Hm?”

Blood Nether Celestial, who was locked in a frantic battle with Gu Yun, seemed to sense something. He looked up slightly at the sky, his scarlet pupils contracting. He saw a sun-blotting Vast Sea divine palm and a sky-spanning dark giant dragon hurtling down to destroy him!

“Damn it!” Blood Nether Celestial cursed under his breath. He then looked directly at Gu Yun and said, “You’ve been tying me down here. Aren’t you afraid of getting caught in the crossfire from your fellow Daoists of the Human Race?”

“Don’t worry. I won’t die, even after you’ve turned to ash,” Gu Yun said coldly. The moment he spoke, his body flashed like Thunder, teleporting hundreds of miles away. A blade’s gleam then flickered in his eyes.

“Wind and Thunder Annihilation Saber!”

An ultimate saber light, imbued with the essence of Wind and Thunder, instantly pierced the heavens. It tore through layer after layer of space with an awe-inspiring aura, lunging toward Blood Nether Celestial with lethal intent, like a divine Thunder Punishment!

“Very good. Do you really think this is enough to defeat me?” Blood Nether Celestial hovered in the void, his robes flapping and hair whipping wildly. A grim smile spread across his handsome yet sinister face.

Immediately after, a bloody light flashed in his eyes. The entirety of his Demonic Power, comparable to the Tongxuan Mastery Peak, erupted. The aura emanating from his dark Demon Monster Dao Rhythm shattered the void and made the very world shake violently. Blood Nether Celestial formed a seal with one hand.

“Endless Blood Sea!”

As Blood Nether Celestial’s utterly terrifying Demonic Power burst forth,

BOOM! A terrifying sound erupted from the sky. The entire world trembled madly at this moment, and the daylight suddenly turned blood-red.

An endless, boundless sea of blood abruptly appeared, spanning thousands of miles.

The sea of blood contained terrifying Demonic Power. Within it seemed to exist an aura capable of annihilating everything, and it radiated a might that made one tremble.

GURGLE, GURGLE!

The blood sea, stretching for thousands of miles, began to churn as if a Primordial Fierce Beast was rampaging within its depths.

For thousands of miles, the sky was completely blood-red. At this moment, it was as if the world had transformed into a realm of blood and sea.

“KILL!!”

In the void, Blood Nether Celestial’s robes whipped about. His handsome yet sinister face was twisted with madness, and a bloody glint flashed in his eyes as he let out a heaven-shaking roar.

BOOM!!

The sky-blotting sea of blood, carrying supreme might, surged forward to engulf the incoming ultimate Sword Qi, the heaven-reaching giant palm, and the dark giant dragon!

BANG!

Several powerful attacks collided fiercely in the void, instantly creating an earth-shattering explosion. The space for a thousand miles around was completely shattered, revealing a pitch-black, abyssal void where one could not see their hand in front of their face. Terrifying chaotic Gang Qi gushed out like a savage beast.

The incredibly powerful aftershocks swept out for thousands of miles. Wherever they passed, mountains collapsed, giant trees were pulverized into dust, and the land fractured into countless crisscrossing abyssal ravines, like hideous, angry dragons.

TSS! The boundless blood-red light intertwined with the sharp saber gleam, the deep-blue giant palm, and the dark dragon qi. It was as if several worlds were colliding, releasing an earth-shattering and terrifying Divine Power.

At this moment, within the sea of blood, Blood Nether Celestial’s robes whipped about him. His handsome yet sinister face was dark. The combined strength of his opponents had exceeded his expectations. ‘If this continues,’ he thought, ‘the situation will likely turn dire.’
