Chapter 34: The Battle of Beihai (Three)

  The sky was sometimes bright and sometimes dark, a vast and mighty power like the starry sky rotated, isolating the attacks of Long Ba and others outside their bodies. In mid-air, Ye Qing's long hair danced like a snake, her black robe fluttering wildly, resembling the descent of a demon god from the nine underworlds. With one stamp of her foot, the ground beneath her cracked open with a loud rumble, and the earth layers rapidly rose up, following the momentum of the Heaven-destroying Blade that shattered the sky and destroyed the earth. A deafening roar shook the heavens, and within a radius of a million miles, the land turned into a tsunami. As the Heaven-destroying Blade swept upwards into the air, the sky filled with smoke and dust, like fog. Then, with a loud crack, the space within a thousand-mile radius shattered like a mirror, revealing the rifts behind it.

  Large chunks of earth and stone shot towards the sky, their sound still echoing, but then a desolate yet loud voice came from the depths of the void, its sound like the howling of ten thousand demons.

  Roar!

  With just one loud roar, the crowd's minds were shaken, their blood and energy surging inside. In the midst of it all, they felt an overwhelming pressure coming from a dark, profound light that emerged from the void, twisting and changing in an instant to form a colossal knife aura over 100 million feet long. The knife aura was pitch black and indistinguishable, but the two icy glints at its tip, hundreds of millions of feet away, shone with an eye-searing intensity, made all the more terrifying by the dark clouds and silver lightning that loomed above...

  A sword hums, piercing the sky, and Long Ba and the dragon clan elders change greatly. His feet move wrongly, and he takes a step back of tens of thousands of meters. At the moment he retreats, in the dark void, many spatial cracks suddenly appear out of thin air, varying in size, each one at least several meters long, with the largest reaching ten thousand meters. They set off against the void, with the towering and majestic sword shadow, its power unmatched!

  Rumble!

  Without any sound, a pitch-black knife light pierced through the sky and earth. At a speed that transcended thought, it fell from the distant sky, from top to bottom. It split the sky and earth in two, wherever the knife energy passed. From the cloud layer to the ground, a huge gap appeared, and the sky rippled like water for a moment. Afterwards, on both sides of the massive gap that spanned the sky and earth, except for Long Ba and several powerful elders who escaped, all the other elders disappeared silently, their bodies, souls, and even their life imprints. Everything was annihilated silently under this one knife, the ground, with Ye Qing as the boundary, on both sides, large swaths of land. Silently dissolved, thoroughly pulverized into dust, leaving behind a hundred million zhang of empty space where the knife energy passed. The entire ocean seemed to have been split in two by this one knife.

  Feng Wu's eyes widened in shock as she stared at the scene before her, her body tense with disbelief. She couldn't believe that this was the extent of Young Master's power. She had never thought that his cultivation could be so strong. Looking at the figure standing in front of her, Feng Wu's eyes were filled with a newfound sense of awe and reverence.

  Far away, Long Ba and several elders who escaped were trembling with fear, their bodies shaking violently. They were filled with infinite dread, thinking that if they had been just a step slower, they would have been reduced to dust along with the dozen or so elders who didn't escape. Long Ba and the few elders looked at Ye Qing in horror, as if they had seen a demon, and swallowed their saliva with a bitter taste: "This... is impossible... how can it be even more powerful than Patriarch Long's attack?"

  How could he possibly have such cultivation, and be able to unleash his attack power to this terrifying extent!!! Long Ba and several elders were frightened, originally thinking that everything would be easy to capture, originally thinking that relying on a quasi-saint of the 12th heaven realm and more than ten quasi-saints of the 11th heaven realm to deal with the opponent was overkill, originally thinking that this guy's strength even if strong wouldn't be much stronger, but suddenly, everything was shrouded in an impenetrable mist...

  Ye Qing's long hair danced behind her head, her face calm and serene, the shadow of a knife still lingering behind her, her neck slowly moving, two flames dancing in her eyes!

  Bang!

  An elder behind Long Ba couldn't bear the terrifying pressure, his expression frenzied as he charged towards Ye Qing with his weapon. The moment the elder's eyes met Ye Qing's icy and ruthless gaze that seemed to hold endless slaughter, a boundless intent of knives burst forth from the air, pressing down on the elder's consciousness...

  Hmph!

  A mouthful of blood mist burst out, and his body exploded everywhere. The elder let out a miserable cry, without any warning, his body flew tens of thousands of feet like a broken kite - that majestic knife intent was so vast, so overbearing, that even with his own quasi-saint eleven-heaven boundary ability, he couldn't withstand the casual bombardment of the Exterminating Demon Dao's knife intent!

  "How is this possible? Why?!...Why?! He was just a newly entered Azure Saint, so why did I not have the slightest bit of resistance?! Why?!...Why?!...Why did such a situation occur?! As his body flew through the air, the elder's inner self let out a furious roar, filled with extreme unwillingness and extreme confusion, but he didn't even have the chance to understand before he was reduced to nothing."

  Boom!

  Ye Qing remained silent, raised his head, and took a step forward, but it was a hundred feet away. With Ye Qing's movement, the enormous pressure followed, and the majestic aura of the Demon Saint was displayed in an unprecedentedly powerful manner at this moment.

  Long Ba and others under this enormous pressure, found that in their hearts they couldn't muster up any consciousness to resist, their expressions were shocked beyond measure. How could it be that I, who have at least reached the peak of quasi-sainthood of the twelve heavens, couldn't even withstand his aura? Long Ba's heart was filled with disbelief.

  Long Ba didn't know that Ye Qing's cultivation of Jie Mo Dao had extremely harsh requirements for spiritual power, and under Ye Qing's modifications, the cultivation of willpower was even more important. The strength of one's will determined the intensity of their aura, so with Ye Qing's unparalleled willpower, it wasn't hard to imagine just how powerful his aura was - far surpassing that of an average Early Sacred Realm cultivator in the Hongyuan.

  Clang!

  The Heaven-Splitting Blade quivered with a loud noise, and a peerless killing intent descended. Ye Qing, however, wanted to take down Long Ba and the others in one move.

  "Wait!……" Another elder after Long Ba couldn't bear Ye Qing's unparalleled knife intent and icy gaze, his spirit was on the verge of collapse. His hands trembled as he stretched them over his head, took a deep breath, and forcibly suppressed the infinite fear in his heart. Trembling, he exclaimed: "Ah!! This isn't what I meant! It's the Ancestral Dragon who wants to kill you, it has nothing to do with me!! Please spare my life!!" After speaking, he burst into tears, wailing like a child.

  Hearing the elder's words, Long Ba and the remaining elders were shocked and said: "You cowardly guy, why are you so afraid of death."

  The elder heard Long Bao's words and felt extremely ashamed in his heart.

  Hmph!

  The green clothes fluttered, but upon hearing this, he let out a cold snort and said disdainfully: "I won't kill you, someone like you isn't worthy of being killed by me. Killing you would even dirty my hands. Scram!!"

  "Thank you!! Lord Ye Qing, thank you!!" The elder thanked Ye Qing and immediately fled in a flurry.

  The old man's departure did not catch Ye Qing off guard, but his own knife intent had left a shadow in his heart. If he couldn't overcome this shadow for the rest of his life, he would never be able to break through. Moreover, the dragon tribe would not let him go either. It all depended on whether he could keep his life under the pursuit of the dragon tribe. No matter what the outcome was, it had no impact on himself.

  Longba and the remaining three dragon elders looked at Ye Qing's figure, which was like a demon god, with a sense of helplessness in their hearts. However, it was impossible for them to beg for mercy. As the strongest of the three major races in the Primordial Chaos, how could the Dragon Clan possibly humble themselves and beg for mercy from their enemies?

  But Long Ba's heart was also regretful for provoking the killing god in front of him, the power of this killing god was too strong, even the strongest ancestor of the dragon clan didn't have such strength. The dragon clan actually provoked such a powerful strongman, it was simply a disaster for the dragon clan. Once thinking about how terrifying this guy was as an enemy of the dragon clan, Long Ba felt terrified just thinking about it, but now the dragon clan had no way to retreat anymore.

  Long Ba and the three elders exchanged a glance, and in their hearts, they made a decision. The resolute and crazy look in their eyes was evident.

  Ye Qing saw the crazy look in the eyes of those elders and felt that something was wrong. In Ye Qing's divine consciousness, he discovered that the pre-heavenly spiritual energy from all over the vast Hongyuan continent, which spanned billions of miles, was rapidly converging here and being absorbed by those few elders.

  Long Ba looked at the several elders, feeling extremely sad in his heart. The several elders cast a secret spell to self-destruct, just to help him escape and return to the Dragon Clan to tell them about the situation here. But thinking of the task on his body, Long Ba gritted his teeth and quickly escaped back to the Dragon Clan, as long as he could escape back to the Dragon Clan, he would be safe.
