Chapter 967: Chapter 967
It wasn’t just Yan Hu. Shang Jue’s eyes also sparkled with excitement as she bowed to Yun Yubai with a respectful gesture. Yun Yubai’s heart tightened instantly. He clenched his fists, and a murderous intent surged within him. If only he could kill them, kill them...
The disciples behind them were stunned, not understanding the meaning of these two people’s actions. Someone asked, "Junior uncle, why do they call you ’young master’?"
Wang Lun firmly defended Yun Yubai, "There’s no need to ask. They are just trying to slander our junior uncle!"
Most people felt the same way. Their junior uncle had been cultivating in the Seven Peaks Sect for thousands of years. How could he be a half-demon, half-immortal? It must be a lie!
Shang Jue wanted to say more, intending to provoke Yun Yubai. However, in the next moment, Siheng had already drawn his sword. The sword flowers bloomed in thousands, extremely fierce, and directly struck at Shang Jue’s vital spot.
Shang Jue’s expression changed. Now, Siheng’s strength had surpassed her own. This sword energy was truly hard to withstand. Shang Jue barely managed to block the sword energy, but she was left with churning blood and blood trickling from the corner of her mouth.
Instead of getting angry, she laughed, "Jifeng Celestial Sovereign, be gentle. Your attack is too fierce."
Siheng’s eyes narrowed, and the coldness on his face intensified. He made a sword seal, and thousands of sword energies attacked from all directions. It seemed as if he intended to turn Shang Jue into a sieve.
However, a protector under the Asura King was no ordinary person. Shang Jue smiled lightly, held the Sky-Slaying Axe, and swung it down with force towards the ground.
The powerful impact emanating from her position blocked the sword energies. Dust flew up. The sky was covered with dark clouds. Center Peak, which had already been impacted several times, trembled even more violently. A crack appeared in the middle, and it began to split into pieces.
This Center Peak was about to collapse!!
Yun Yubai, who had been dueling with Yan Hu, was greatly shocked by this sudden change. Center Peak was in the center of the seven peaks, and its collapse would cause it to crash into the other mountains. The Seven Peaks Sect would truly be destroyed today!
Heartbroken, Yun Yubai swept Yan Hu away with a sword strike and shouted, "Quick, get out of here!"
Wang Lun and the others found it difficult to stand firm amidst the shaking. They all looked troubled and said, "Junior uncle, we are severely injured and can hardly use our spiritual energy to fly on our swords!"
As soon as they finished speaking, the ground where a female disciple was standing cracked open.
She fell into the crack! The Master of Crimson Glow Peak didn’t hesitate and quickly went to rescue her. But Center Peak was collapsing more and more severely. More and more disciples fell into the cracks.
Yun Yubai also stopped dueling with Yan Hu and followed to rescue people. This gave Yan Hu a chance to catch his breath. Instead of attacking Yun Yubai, he turned his head and stared at Siheng’s figure.
He had witnessed Shang Jue’s truly terrifying strength before, but she seemed to be holding back now and didn’t unleash it. Instead, she used this move to break free from Siheng’s entanglement. He couldn’t understand why.
But he had only one thought in his mind: Siheng was Nanli’s husband. If he died, Nanli would be heartbroken. Without hesitation, Yan Hu flew straight towards Siheng with his long sword in hand. The cold light was dazzling, surrounded by demonic energy, a move capable of killing an immortal!
Siheng was dealing with Shang Jue, and his back was exposed. Yan Hu roared, "Die!"
Shang Jue heard this and saw the scene, her face turning pale as she shouted, "Stop!"
But Yan Hu, who harbored deep hatred for the couple, would not back down. Just as the cold sword was about to strike down,
A sword intent fiercely pierced through the air, blocking Yan Hu’s sword. He was even shaken by the impact, with demonic energy surging and blood churning in his body.
He spat out a mouthful of blood. In the next moment, several sword intents attacked from all directions, piercing through Yan Hu’s body and hitting vital spots.
Yan Hu’s pupils began to disperse. He fell downwards. Shang Jue didn’t expect Yan Hu to be so easily defeated. She gritted her teeth, not bothering to care about Yan Hu’s fate, and swung her axe again.
Now, not only was the mountain collapsing, but the air was also being stirred up, creating strong winds. These winds were not ordinary; with the demonic energy of the Sky-Slaying Axe, they possessed formidable killing power.
Siheng’s expression remained unchanged. The spiritual energy he emitted naturally blocked the strong winds. But the others were not so fortunate. Anything the winds swept over, whether trees or rocks, was turned into dust and fragments. Without testing, even the Crimson Glow Peak Master and Yun Yubai would not be able to escape such a fate.
Siheng’s eyes flickered, and he used thousands of sword intents to form a barrier, blocking the strong winds. He asked, "Isn’t he the one you wanted?"
This question was probing. Shang Jue smiled lightly and replied with her own probe, "Ni Zhan is dead. I suppose you already know some things. Yun Yubai’s strength might not be enough. Siheng, you possess the divine mark and have extraordinary cultivation. I’ve changed my mind now."
Siheng showed no particular emotion. Shang Jue was now certain that he must have known something! However, Siheng was not at all flustered. His composure pleased her.
"Then you can only die," Siheng said indifferently. His demeanor was cold and proud, and at this moment, it was filled with murderous intent. The sword intent condensed once more. The momentum was extraordinary. In the dark and gloomy world, thousands of silver lights flickered, all heading towards Shang Jue.
"Siheng, what happened before was just a minor skirmish. Now, let me show you the true power of the Sky-Slaying Axe," Shang Jue raised her battle axe again. The weather changed dramatically. Her clothes fluttered as she stood in mid-air. Her eyes became even sharper. The battle axe was now surrounded by black mist and interwoven with dark purple lightning.
"Annihilate the heavens! Annihilate the earth! Above the heavens, below the earth, I alone am supreme!"
Shang Jue roared furiously and swung her axe down at the air. The air was actually shattered into pieces. Siheng’s sword intent could no longer advance an inch. He frowned slightly. When he tried to control it, the sword intent was completely dispersed. The black mist and purple lightning wrapped around the sword intent, no longer under his control, and flew off in all directions.
Siheng then understood Shang Jue’s intention. She was using his sword intent to slaughter the innocent! However, by using this move, Shang Jue was clearly going to expend her own lifespan. Her previously jet-black and shiny hair had already gained a few strands of silver. Her forehead was covered in sweat, and she was panting heavily.
Without hesitation, she left. If Siheng pursued her, he would definitely be able to kill her. At this moment, he remembered A’Li’s words. He now had the divine mark and could no longer act as he used to. It was not only for himself but also for A’Li and the child.
He immediately used the teleportation technique to reach the remaining disciples, and with the Sky-Tearing Sword, he shattered the sword intent tainted with demonic energy.
He moved around several places and temporarily resolved the crisis here. Even with the collapse of Center Peak, Yun Yubai managed to rescue people with his extremely skillful sword flying technique. Siheng had no more worries behind him.
He quickly focused and made a seal, summoning more sword intent to follow up. Those demonic sword intents were extremely fierce. They had the ability to search for survivors and flew towards the villages and towns within a radius of five miles. They craved blood. Only blood could make them stop.
The nearby villagers, seeing this strange sword intent, were stunned for a moment before their expressions changed drastically. After all, they had been in the Immortal World for a long time, and this place used to be called the Upper Realm. They still had some knowledge.
Someone quickly shouted, "Run! That’s demonic sword intent!"
