Chapter 1924 - 1907: Survival Against All Odds

Boom!

As Dan Venerable Qiu Ren absorbed this drop of Holy-grade Power into his body, his entire being burst into Divine Light like the explosion of Sun True Fire, and the blazing Holy Might swept across the All Heavens World. The fiery Divine Light illuminated the entire Universe.

"Xiao Ye, prepare to die!"

Bai Wuliu had already retreated far away, a look of smug satisfaction on his face.

He knew very well that allowing Xiao Ye to return to the Taixu Saint Realm alive would mean their only chance for a comeback would be a halfway ambush.

From the moment they attacked Xiao Ye under the threat of the Witch Saint, they were predestined for an unending conflict with him.

The terrifying Holy Might completely enveloped Xiao Ye, suppressing the Spiritual Power on him, making his body unbearably heavy. If it weren’t for the Quasi-Saint Artifact, Jiang Kong’s Stone Sword, in his hand, his Spirit Body would have been crushed.

"Qiu Ren, by killing me, don’t you fear being pursued by Taixu Great Saint and Lord Ba?"

Xiao Ye was furious beyond measure.

Having consecutively refined the Nine Great Spirit Bodies, his power already surpassed Dan Venerable Qiu Ren and Bai Wuliu, but for the Great Realm Task, he hadn’t immediately settled scores with the two.

Yet Dan Venerable Qiu Ren was so selfish, to the point of hiding a piece of Holy-grade Power to deal with him, it was too despicable and cunning!

"Haha, Xiao Ye, you’ve killed the Son of Demon Emperor and now have become the target of the Demon Clan. If you die in the Primordial Great World, the Taixu Great Saint and the others will at most think it’s the work of the Demon Clan. Why would they suspect me?"

"Then, the rewards for completing this Great Realm Task will all fall into our hands. Blame yourself for opposing me!"

Dan Venerable Qiu Ren sneered as he approached step by step, the Holy-grade Power surging ferociously, stirring the Nine Heavens, shooting straight to the clouds, releasing unparalleled Divine Power aimed at Xiao Ye.

"Jiang Kong Sword Technique!"

Xiao Ye shouted internally, the Stone Sword in his hand trembling, restoring the might of the Quasi-Saint Artifact. The invincible sword light dimmed the starlight, causing the All Heavens to tremble.

"Firefly light dares to compete with the Sun and Moon?"

Dan Venerable Qiu Ren looked disdainful, his gestures unchanged, the surging Holy-grade Power flowing in his palm, crushing the sword light of Jiang Kong Sword Technique with bare hands. The leftover power raged forth, instantly tearing apart Xiao Ye’s Scripture Phase defense.

Pffft!

Xiao Ye vomited a mouthful of Spirit Blood on the spot, the Tai Chu Spirit Flower dimmed, the Spirit Body cracked, exploding in the starry sky.

"Quasi-Saint Power differs too much from true Holy-grade Power, even if I can wield Taichu Ancient Scripture’s Tai Character Scripture Phase, it can’t compete."

"What should I do?"

"What should I do?"

Xiao Ye frantically repaired his Spirit Body, the terrifying Holy Might once again swept over him tightly, making him unable to even perform the Initial Character Scripture Phase.

Now, Ba Snake and Jiang Kong are surely battling the Demon Clan’s Saint Rank experts. Even if Ghost Fire and others realize this combat, they can’t do much to help.

Although the Holy-grade Power would slowly dissipate with time, he absolutely couldn’t withstand that duration.

This was truly a hopeless situation, devoid of any hint of hope.

"I never thought I couldn’t kill you in one strike, Jiang Kong’s Stone Sword is indeed extraordinary. Once I kill you, it will be mine!"

Dan Venerable Qiu Ren tore open space with both hands, appearing instantly in front of Xiao Ye as if by teleportation, and delivered a direct punch.

Buzz!

Xiao Ye felt an overwhelming Holy Might sweeping over him, even the arm holding Jiang Kong’s Stone Sword was crushed, his body thrown horizontally, ancient scripture characters shattered, even the Tai Chu Spirit Flower trembled fiercely, with countless fine fractures appearing, Tai Chu Spiritual Power became chaotic, Spirit Rank Origin was already damaged.

Boom!

Xiao Ye’s shattered Spirit Body was like a meteor, crashing hard into an Ancient Star, stirring up rolling dust, deeply embedding into the ten-thousand-meter-deep ground, his Spiritual Sense near collapse, consciousness about to be swallowed by boundless darkness.

In just two strikes, Xiao Ye was on the verge of death!

Holy-grade Power, formidable like this!

"Will I, Xiao Ye, die at the hands of such a petty villain?" Xiao Ye desperately tried to stay awake, watching as Dan Venerable Qiu Ren pursued again, full of resentment.

If he died at the hands of the Demon Clan, he would have nothing to say, only blaming his skills lacking.

But to die at Dan Venerable Qiu Ren’s hands, he couldn’t accept it.

"Little guy, this Saint just slept for a while, how did you end up like this? You’re really disgracing our Forbidden Ancient Clan like this!"

Suddenly, an arrogant and familiar voice suddenly came from the Time Tower, dispelling the darkness before Xiao Ye’s eyes.

"Time Great Saint elder?!"

Xiao Ye’s spirit was invigorated, followed by an expression of uncontrollable joy.

After obtaining the second Time Rain Stone, Time Great Saint fell into slumber, has he finally awakened now?

Soon, a powerful fluctuation dispersed from the Time Tower, proudly enveloping the All Heavens, directly covering Xiao Ye’s Tai Chu Spirit Flower, healing his wounds.

In moments, the cracks on Tai Chu Spirit Flower vanished, even the Spirit Rank Origin became exuberant.

"Tsk-tsk, without me, you indeed have a miserable existence!" The arrogant voice came again, ruthlessly mocking Xiao Ye.

"Damn!"

"Time Great Saint, if you don’t save me, I’ll be killed, then who’s going to find your third Time Rain Stone and your Forbidden Ancient Clan’s Saint Heir for you?"

Seeing the other still had time to ridicule him in that crisis, Xiao Ye felt furious and helpless.

"Humph, it’s just a Martial Artist employing Holy-grade Power, what’s there to panic about?"

"Now, if it comes to Holy-grade Power, none of the geniuses from any major clan surpasses you." Time Great Saint snorted coldly.

In an instant, Xiao Ye felt a drop of Energy rushing from the Time Tower into his body, infusing him with boundless strength.

"This... is this Holy-grade Power?" Quietly feeling his transformation, Xiao Ye’s eyes erupted with blazing brilliance.

On the other side, Dan Venerable Qiu Ren strode over, looking down at the ruined Ancient Star ahead, his gaze icy, "That kid is surprisingly tenacious, surviving my two strikes."

With this thought, the murderous intent from Dan Venerable Qiu Ren became more intense, preparing to strike again—

Boom!

Suddenly, the Ancient Star before him exploded, a similarly terrifying and boundless Holy Might soared, directly breaking his Holy Might suppression.

Amidst the sky filled with Divine Light, a tall figure treaded the sky, his piercing gaze seemed to tear the starry sky, as if gazing at a dead man, "Qiu Ren!"

"Xiao... Xiao Ye?"

Staring at the figure, Dan Venerable Qiu Ren’s pupils shrank, his expression became extremely colorful, "You... you actually possess Holy-grade Power too?"

"How is this possible!"
