Ye Tianling’s gaze was ice-cold as he stared at Xia Xinyan. "If it weren’t for the burdens I carry, you would have died here long ago, Xia Xinyan! But now, I should thank you. It was you who forced all my battle power to completely rge, giving the true strength of the Void Realm!"
Xia Xinyan’s heart trembled. Locked by Ye Tianling’s gaze, as cold as ice, the sense of danger in her heart instantly reached its peak.
A chill went through her. She knew this battle would be incredibly difficult.
If she continued to hold back, if she couldn’t completely unleash her battle power against Ye Tianling, then she, the Candidate Saintess from Blood Killing Heaven, would surely et a bitter end here!
"You are certainly arrogant! And you have the strength to back it up. But if these are the only abilities you possess, then this is where it ends for you!"
Xia Xinyan said coldly.
The shock in her heart was far greater than what she let on.
After all, she was a Saintess at the Sword Void First Transformation Realm, and her battle power had already achieved Breaking Five!
That was equivalent to fighting a genuine expert at the Sixth Change of Sword Void Realm!
But Ye Tianling?
He was just a newcor who had been cultivating for less than half a year!
A good-for-nothing with an Innate Deficiency who had cultivated for less than half a year could actually reach the Sword Soul Third Heaven Realm!
Yet soone like him was actually fighting her, a Saintess of the Half-Dragon Race from Blood Killing Heaven, at such a level!
He hadn’t just broken the Nine Forbidden; he had shattered the shackles of a Great Realm, sothing even more terrifying!
This was simply a terrifying act, an ability that defied the Celestial Dao and shattered one’s entire worldview!
"What I’m capable of is far beyond what you can imagine!"
Ye Tianling’s eyes grew even colder. He imdiately channeled his Dragon Subduing Swordsmanship through the Six ridian Divine Sword technique, launching an attack from afar.
WHOOSH—
A colorless, formless killing intent erupted.
"Not good!"
Xia Xinyan’s expression was grave, her scalp tingling. In a split second, she dodged, evading the Six ridian Divine Sword’s attack.
But Ye Tianling didn’t hesitate, continuously unleashing attacks with the Six ridian Divine Sword!
With every point of his finger, he unleashed a massive amount of peerless killing intent, much like Sword Qi.
But this wasn’t Sword Qi; it was the peerless killing intent derived from the Eighteen Dragon Subduing Palms!
Each wave of killing intent, as if empowered by the peerless might of the Emperor’s Qi Sword Body, was enough to deal Xia Xinyan a fatal blow.
Xia Xinyan was forced into a desperate retreat.
Because her Battle Armor had been sliced open and her body had nearly been cut in two, her Defense Power was now practically nonexistent.
However, while dodging, Xia Xinyan also took out a brilliantly colored Elixir and began to consu it.
After consuming the Elixir, her injuries began to recover at a terrifying speed. Her Battle Intent grew even stronger and more tyrannical.
"Creation of life, rebirth of Origin!"
Xia Xinyan executed a terrifying Cultivation Technique akin to Withered Wood Welcoming Spring. Her aura, injuries, and more began to recover at an even faster rate, and her strength climbed even higher.
Her Realm even temporarily rose by a level, making her even more fearso.
’So this is what a Saint Son or Saintess is like? This hard to kill?! Damn it all!’
Ye Tianling couldn’t help but suck in a cold breath. Although using the Six ridian Divine Sword was incredibly draining, his Sword Venerate Dominating Body and powerful physique made his Energy reserves nearly inexhaustible. Even so, facing a Xia Xinyan who seed impossible to kill or even cripple, he was utterly shaken.
This was the first ti he’d encountered an existence he couldn’t forcefully suppress or instantly kill.
This was also the first ti Ye Tianling had ever fought such a difficult battle.
Even when facing Long Tianxiao, Ye Tianling hadn’t actually found it this difficult.
When he killed Long Tianxiao, Ye Tianling had used an Absolute Kill attack from the Xuanyuan Celestial Evil Sword. It was a strike that had reached Sword Dao God, a Divine Dao technique released by a Divine Artifact, far beyond the scope of normal abilities.
That ti, Ye Tianling hadn’t felt any particular shock; it felt no different from crushing an ant.
One sword strike, overwhelming and unstoppable, and Long Tianxiao was dead.
Now, this battle with Xia Xinyan was making Ye Tianling fully realize just how difficult it was to kill the so-called peerless geniuses of this world, the Saint Sons and Saintesses.
Following the current trend, if he fought with his life on the line and pushed his Soul Talent to its absolute limit, he estimated he could fight Xia Xinyan for a whole day. But the result of that battle—there might not be a result at all.
But with Xia Xinyan suddenly raising her Realm, that balance was instantly shattered.
Ye Tianling was starting to be outmatched.
Once a disadvantage appeared, the outco naturally beca grim.
Ye Tianling used all his remaining treasures, like the Thunderous Pearl and Prohibition Talismans. Every subsequent exchange was fraught with unpredictable and extre danger.
BANG BANG BANG—
After another fierce exchange, Ye Tianling’s incredibly tough body—tempered by the Seven-Star Celestial Tribulation and nearly indestructible—was now covered in cracks. His injuries were becoming serious.
Following that, nearly a hundred of Ye Tianling’s bones were broken, and his ridians were on the verge of tearing apart from the strain of rapidly circulating the Samadhi True Fire Celestial Dragon Sword Soul.
As for Xia Xinyan, she was also covered in blood, beaten to a bloody pulp and looking just as miserable.
Even after raising her Realm and forcefully suppressing Ye Tianling with the power of the Sword Void Second Transformation Realm, it still wasn’t as easy as she had imagined.
She had already used three of her trump cards, each one ant to be a fatal blow. Yet, Ye Tianling’s terrifying Soul Talent allowed him to dodge the brunt of the attacks. His Great Shift of Heaven and Earth technique then redirected most of what was left. After the North Nether Divine Skill devoured another portion, only the remaining sliver of power actually managed to wound him.
Wounded to this extent, Ye Tianling was dripping with blood, his body a broken ss. His bones were even exposed to the air.
"Returning Butterfly Cocoon Technique!"
After taking another blow, Ye Tianling spat out blood repeatedly, but the Dragon Blood within his body only boiled more fiercely in response.
The Dragon Blood within the eleventh level of the Space-Ti Soul-locking Tower had begun to stir restlessly.
Ye Tianling executed the Returning Butterfly Cocoon Technique, using the Cocoon Transformation Technique’s thods to transform his injuries.
RUMBLE—
A sound like rolling thunder echoed from within Ye Tianling’s bones.
After using the Returning Butterfly Cocoon Technique, the barrier to Ye Tianling’s next Realm finally began to loosen.
VMMMM—
In that instant, he glimpsed the Profound aning of the Half-step Sword Spirit Realm. His Samadhi True Fire Celestial Dragon Sword Soul finally showed the first signs of transforming into a Sword Spirit.
It was just a re wisp of a sign, but after this transformation, Ye Tianling used the Cocoon Transformation Technique to resolve all his injuries. After layers of bloodline transformation, he was enveloped in a shroud of blood-red light.
Xia Xinyan launched ten consecutive attacks, but when they struck the massive, five-ter-tall Blood Cocoon, all the Energy was devoured by it.
It was as if Ye Tianling was completely protected, impervious to all attacks.
Xia Xinyan’s eyelid twitched violently as she cried out in alarm, "Returning Butterfly Cocoon Technique! What is your relationship with Ouyang Ruoxue, the foremost Saintess-candidate of the Returning Butterfly Sacred Land?"
Ye Tianling didn’t answer. During the Blood Cocoon’s transformation, all of his injuries were converted into the cocoon itself.
Then, he burst out from the Blood Cocoon, completely renewed.
Even the broken defenses of his Ice Spirit Armor were completely restored, as if brand new.
