The Black Glaze Sword in Ye Tian's hand unleashed a powerful Golden Sword Qi, striking toward the Earth-Split Demon Turtle at top speed.
The Earth-Split Demon Turtle's body was imnse, so Ye Tian's Sword Qi could easily hit it. It hadn't taken Ye Tian's attacks seriously in the first place. Although this strike looked formidable, the turtle believed its Attack Power would be insufficient to break through its defenses.
If Zhang Xinlan on the ground were the one attacking, it might have defended with all its might. But against Ye Tian, it felt that was completely unnecessary.
At this mont, it actually launched an earth spike attack at Zhang Xinlan. It truly didn't realize the danger right before it; soon, it would be too late for regrets.
After unleashing the Gold Slash, Ye Tian felt as if more than half of the Dragon Spiritual Power in his body had been instantly drained, and his face turned deathly pale.
An apocalyptic aura appeared in the air. The Golden Sword Qi, carrying Thunder Power, struck the Earth-Split Demon Turtle's body. Suddenly, sothing completely unexpected happened.
The powerful Sword Qi instantly blasted a huge hole in the shell on the Earth-Split Demon Turtle's underbelly. The Sword Qi plunged directly into its body, and the ferocity of the Thunder Elent and the piercing nature of the Gold Elent began rapidly ravaging its insides.
"AHHH!" The Earth-Split Demon Turtle let out a blood-curdling scream. On the ground, the earth spikes instantly vanished, having lost their power source.
However, those earth spikes had killed all the other students on the ground. In a way, this could be considered a help to Ye Tian, as it prevented him from exposing the Dragon Scales on his body. Perhaps this was fated to happen.
Zhang Xinlan wasn't hurt by the earth spikes, but her face was as white as a sheet. A trickle of crimson blood was still slowly seeping from the corner of her mouth; her injuries were truly severe.
She stared at Ye Tian without blinking, never imagining his attack could possess such imnse power. It was completely beyond her imagination. She couldn't understand how Ye Tian had done it.
'If it was just his mastery of the Gold Elent, I believe he hasn't reached the point of perfection yet. He shouldn't have been able to execute a Martial Skill like that.'
As this thought crossed her mind, she suddenly realized. It seed Ye Tian had dripped his blood onto that mysterious black longsword. The longsword appeared to be a Blood Artifact; after absorbing the energy from his blood, it had unleashed an even more terrifying Attack Power.
Ye Tian's attack had punched a massive hole straight through the Earth-Split Demon Turtle's body, piercing it completely from bottom to top. Its internal organs were naturally mangled beyond recognition.
The Earth-Split Demon Turtle would have never dread that this lowly human could possess such imnse Attack Power. It had a very clear sense of Ye Tian's strength—he was just a practitioner who had recently broken through to the Three Vein Realm.
A human might not have been able to perceive this, but a Demon Beast's natural Perception Power was superior to a human's. Yet, it was this tiny ant at the Three Vein Realm who had managed to inflict such a grievous wound and even put its life in danger.
It could feel its life force slipping away, its heart filled with unwillingness and despair. But it was too late for regrets. It shouldn't have underestimated Ye Tian's attack while trying to strike Zhang Xinlan on the ground.
However, after unleashing Gold Slash, Ye Tian was also spent. His entire body began to fall toward the ground, as did the Earth-Split Demon Turtle.
At that mont, the Earth-Split Demon Turtle's tail whipped toward Ye Tian. With nothing to leverage in mid-air, he could only watch helplessly as the tail hurtled toward him.
On instinct, he swung the Black Glaze Sword in front of him. But the Black Glaze Sword had already exhausted its Divine Artifact Attribute. Unless Ye Tian infused it with more blood—which was impossible right now—the sword only had its normal properties.
BANG! The Earth-Split Demon Turtle's tail slamd into the flat of Ye Tian's Black Glaze Sword, and the imnse force sent him flying.
This was a strike the Earth-Split Demon Turtle had unleashed after being grievously wounded by Ye Tian. It was a blow delivered with every last ounce of its strength; its power was imnse.
Ye Tian shot backward like a kite with a broken string. The blow sent him crashing into the Earth-Split Demon Turtle's Earth Elent Barrier, and the rebound force flung him back.
However, Ye Tian's impact shattered the Barrier. After all, the Earth-Split Demon Turtle was too heavily injured to maintain the Earth Elental Energy. Now, the world outside was completely visible.
Even though Ye Tian was in his Dragon Scale State, taking a full-power blow from a Tier Five Demon Beast was more than he could handle. The impact from the Barrier's rebound force only made matters worse, and he coughed up a mouthful of blood.
Ye Tian felt as if his whole body had been broken apart. The pain made him grimace. Lying on the ground, he wanted to get up but lacked the strength. A wave of dizziness washed over him.
A single conviction supported him. 'I can't collapse. I can't collapse now. Zhang Xinlan is still heavily injured. I have to protect her. I have to kill the Earth-Split Demon Turtle before I can rest.'
When Zhang Xinlan saw Ye Tian sent flying and spitting blood, she was overco with worry. She tried to endure her injuries and fly to him, but just like Ye Tian, she found she wanted to but lacked the strength. At this mont, she was completely unable to fly.
Now, she could only crawl toward him slowly; she didn't even have the strength to walk. If any students with ill intentions were to co across her now, she might very well lose her innocence.
"Ye Tian!" "Ye Tian!" Zhang Xinlan called out as she slowly crawled toward him. It was slow, but she was making progress.
Ye Tian was deeply moved. He understood Zhang Xinlan's feelings for him perfectly. He had always held back, afraid to get too close because of his many reservations. But now, none of that seed to matter anymore.
Being unable to stand didn't an he couldn't crawl. Ye Tian also began to crawl toward Zhang Xinlan. Both of them were once so proud and powerful, but to see them in such a wretched state was truly heartbreaking.
Soon, they finally reached each other. Both instinctively reached out a hand toward the other, whether to offer encouragent or driven by so mysterious force.
It was as if, in that instant, space and ti had frozen. In their eyes, there was only each other. An indescribable feeling blossod between them.
But just then, the Earth-Split Demon Turtle's enormous body stirred. It actually managed to get back to its feet and let out a roar.
The Earth-Split Demon Turtle's action gave Ye Tian and Zhang Xinlan a terrible fright. Ye Tian tightened his grip on the Black Glaze Sword, wanting to protect the beautiful, fragile woman before him at this critical mont.
Zhang Xinlan did the sa, tightening her grip on her longsword, wanting to protect the man before her. But their fears were for naught. In the next mont, the Earth-Split Demon Turtle's massive body collapsed to the ground, kicking up a cloud of dust…
