First Immortal of the Sword

Chapter 1382 - Battle!

Boom!

The thin, white-haired elder’s frame burst with stingingly bright immortal light that condensed into a bright-red miniature sun.

The terrifying characteristic power of the Cloud Soaring Realm bore down on the entire stretch of heaven and earth. Everything trembled, and the surrounding space soon split and collapsed with a bang.

Numerous onlookers were so startled that they broke out in cold sweats.

Not long ago, Su Yi would have needed to draw upon the Sword of the Nine Hells to defeat an opponent of this level.

But this time, he didn’t do so.

Clang!

The Sword of the Human Realm whooshed as Su Yi raised its deep blue blade into the air. As he circulated his cultivation base, the deep, dark light of reincarnation reflected upon his weapon.

Basic proficiency in the Laws of Reincarnation!

Late-stage Cosmic Enlightenment Realm cultivation!

The two combined to let this slash burst forth with unprecedented power, shaking the very firmament itself.

In the crowd’s eyes, it was as if the cycle of samsara had descended upon the Human Realm. Everything dimmed as the world was plunged into darkness reminiscent of the netherworld.

Boom!!!

The thin, white-haired elder’s blood-red sun had only just descended when it seemed to sink into the endless power of reincarnation. Suddenly, it seemed cut off from heaven and earth, as if the Grand Dao itself were rejecting it.

Mere moments later, it exploded.

The thin, white-haired elder cried out in agony.

A terrifying corrosive power swept over him. The tyrannical strength of reincarnation fused with Su Yi’s sword intent, like the unbreakable scythe of death. It brought with it an intense, lethal threat.

Right at a critical juncture, the white-haired elder’s heart-protecting mirror exploded with the radiance of the Immortal Dao, ripping through the illusions of reincarnation and neutralizing that impending lethal threat.

Even so, the old man was severely wounded, and he was sent flying through the air, his soul body in tatters. It was a shocking sight.

One slash, and Su Yi dealt heavy injuries to a Cloud Soaring Realm revenant! This tyrannical display left everyone present astonished.

Hong Feiyu and the others tremble from head to toe, their expressions shifting.

The late-stage Cosmic Enlightenment Realm!

It had only been a month since Su Yi’s last appearance, but his cultivation had already advanced by two small realms! This rate of growth was simply unheard of!

“Fellow Daoist Su is far, far stronger than he was a month ago.” His allies, Sword Immortal Qingshi and the Universal Emptiness Sword Buddha, both sensed it, and they couldn’t help but be surprised. Su Yi wasn’t at all comparable to his former self. He almost seemed like a completely different person!

“Die!” Hong Feiyu bellowed.

The Little Demon God of the Hong Family unfurled his jade fan and waved it furiously through the air. Stars swathed in black immortal light instantly ripped through the sky and descended upon Su Yi.

Their terrifying power blanketed heaven and earth. The power within each star was comparable to the full-force attacks of Cloud Soaring Realm revenants like Wei Changfu and Ruan Caizhi!

Over a hundred stars descended at once. Their power was so overwhelming that Sword Immortal Qingshi and the Universal Emptiness Sword Buddha’s expressions shifted.

The Falling Star Immortal Banishment Fan!

This was one of the Hong Family’s most famous immortal treasures!

And Hong Feiyu’s individual strength was nothing to sneeze at either. He too was a Cloud Soaring Realm cultivator, but unbelievably, he seemed entirely unafraid of a backlash from the Laws. Thus, his attacks burst forth with power far beyond that of the other Cloud Soaring Realm cultivators present.

Sword Immortal Qingshi’s heart sank as he realized that Hong Feiyu had some sort of wondrous secret treasure capable of preventing a backlash from the Laws. Otherwise, he couldn’t possibly have unleashed such power.

Anyone else would have been able to unleash half their strength at most, and that’s if they tried their hardest.

Boom!

The entire stretch of sky exploded as the black stars descended, putting enormous pressure on Su Yi.

Su Yi wanted to test his swordsmanship and see just how strong he’d become. He naturally wouldn’t retreat.

Instead, he advanced, swinging the Sword of the Human Realm as if cleaving through the heavens and splitting the earth.

“Cut!”

Indomitable sword intent swept forth like a raging, explosive flood of the power of reincarnation.

One star after another shattered, but their terrifying destructive power still forced Su Yi several hundred feet back. HIs blood and qi churned.

“You actually blocked one of my attacks? Not bad!”

Hong Feiyu threw back his head, laughed, then waved his jade fan and attacked explosively once more.

His long hair billowed around him, making him seem like a demonic god. He was fierce and unbridled, and the power emanating from him left even the Cloud Soaring Realm experts barely able to breathe. Chills coursed down their spines.

Too strong!

As a descendant of the Immortal Realm’s Heavenly Demons, Hong Feiyu’s strength was heaven-defying, but that wasn’t all. He was also in possession of true immortal treasures that could incinerate heaven and earth with ease!

“Kill him!”

Meanwhile, the other Cloud Soaring Realm old monsters in Hong Feiyu’s camp attacked too. Each took out their treasures, and all of them seethed with murderous intent as they worked together to surround Su Yi.

There were more than twenty of them. Three were members of the Hong Family, while the others came from various other ancient factions. Just watching this encirclement filled the distant onlookers’ hearts with terror and despair.

How was Su Yi supposed to fight that!?

Boom!

Heaven and earth shook as the surrounding mountains and rivers were destroyed.

As Su Yi fought, he found himself thoroughly surrounded. The battle raged with unprecedented intensity.

“He’s finished! If I’d known, I would have fought for a spot closer to the front of the line. That way, Fellow Daoist Su would have already broken my curse by now!”

“Fellow Daoist Su, whatever you do, don’t die!”

The revenants who’d yet to have their curses broken were frantic. All of them prayed for Su Yi’s victory, and all of them were terrified that he’d lose.

No one was confident.

The Cloud Soaring Realm experts under Hong Feiyu’s leadership were far too terrifying. They weren’t just a threat to the people Su Yi had helped; they were a threat to the factions behind them too!

Clang!

The hum of a sword rang out, shaking the heavens.

Sword Immortal Qingshi blurred into an arc of light and charged into the fray. He gripped the rusted Vast Expanse as overflowing sword intent surged around him, connecting heaven and earth.

Practically simultaneously, the Universal Emptiness Sword Buddha chanted the name of the eternal Buddha. His entire body lit up with Buddhist light as he shot through the air and attacked. A waterfall of light lit up the blue skies.

Both were top Cloud Soaring Realm powerhouses of the ancient era, and both now attacked without hesitation.

This was now a chaotic group battle!

Su Yi was a bit frustrated, but he nonetheless felt warmth in his heart. He hadn’t told the two of them to intervene. After all, his attackers were from the Hong Family. Practically no one present dared provoke them.

Even so, neither Sword Immortal Qingshi nor the Universal Emptiness Sword Buddha hesitated for even a second!

Were they sending him coal in a blizzard?

No, it was much more than that! They saw him as one of their own, and they wanted to live or die alongside him!

“Since you’ve chosen death, I won’t spare a single one of you!” Hong Feiyu laughed with monstrous ferocity.

Su Yi took a moment to steady his heart, then attacked with full force.

Boom!

He swung his sword and attacked, free and unrestrained. His momentum increased, growing all the stronger as the battle continued.

To most people, breaking through a small realm increased their strength to an extent, but the difference was limited.

But to Su Yi, advancing by even a small realm meant undergoing a metamorphosis akin to rebirth!

And over the past month, he’d broken through twice in rapid succession. During this process, he refined enough top-notch Transcendent-level pills to boggle the mind of even true Transcendents.

Now, when Su Yi fought without reservation, his strength was completely different. He single-handedly blocked Hong Feiyu and the others’ joint attack.

This change left Hong Feiyu and his allies inwardly stunned. None of them dared hold back. All attacked in full force.

Sword Immortal Qingshi and the Universal Emptiness Sword Buddha held back four opponents each, displaying extraordinarily terrifying strength.

They could do this because their curses had been broken a long time ago, and their vitality had rapidly recovered ever since. They’d started to resume their cultivation, and while they were still subject to the restrictions of the Laws, the effects were much weaker than they were for those affected by the curse.

Thus, they naturally both displayed strength mighty beyond imagination.

But even the two of them could only hold back a portion of Su Yi’s enemies. There were still more than ten powerful foes surrounding Su Yi!

“Everyone, Qingshi and I are friends to the death. Furthermore, it’s thanks to him that I received Fellow Daoist Su’s aid and got rid of my curse.” The distant Wood Spirit Monarch gnashed his teeth, and his eyes shone with madness. “I naturally cannot just stand back and watch. I might well die in battle, but so what?”

Before his voice had even finished echoing through the air, this Cloud Soaring Realm powerhouse shot into the fray.

“Do you think I am the type to forget a kindness and cling to life?” The Yellow Sword Demon went all out too, raising his sword and charging into the battlefield.

When the other four old monsters Su Yi had helped saw this, they looked at each other and, as if by tacit understanding, shot simultaneously to Su Yi’s aid!

This scene left countless onlookers astonished.

“Have they... Have they all gone insane? Aren’t they afraid the Hong Family will get even with them?” someone said in disbelief.

“They’re not afraid to die, so how could they be afraid of reprisal?” said another, his gaze complicated.

“Hahaha! Wonderful! Wonderful! I wasn’t wrong about you!” Sword Immortal Qingshi threw back his head and laughed heartily, as if incomparably gratified.

His old friends hadn’t changed, and none of them had let him down!

“Hmph! Nothing but a pack of old dogs. You overestimate yourselves. No matter how many of you show up, I’ll just kill you all!” Hong Feiyu snorted disdainfully, his voice reverberating throughout the nine heavens and ten earths like a sudden thunderclap.

“That so? I’m not afraid to die, so go ahead and try it!” Suddenly, Li Zhong shouted and charged into the fray.

Earlier, this Cloud Soaring Realm powerhouse loyal to Mo Qingchou was still hesitant. This was because he represented Mo Qingchou, and he’d brought over a hundred of their allied Transcendents with him. He couldn’t act lightly for fear of implicating those around him.

But now, he’d obviously decided to go all out. His eyes were bloodshot, and he seemed utterly frenzied.

As numerous Cloud Soaring Realm powerhouses came to his aid, the pressure on Su Yi and his allies plummeted.

This should have been a good thing.

But Su Yi felt frustrated. This should have been a perfect opportunity to sharpen his sword, yet now, it had turned into a chaotic group battle.

Still, Su Yi appreciated everyone’s good intentions. He couldn’t complain.

Instead, he shook his head, cast aside his scattered thoughts, and focused on the battle at hand.

Boom!

The battle raged with renewed intensity. The entire stretch of heaven and earth seemed to crumble. Terrifying immortal light swept outward, making heaven and earth change color.

“Die!”

Shortly after, Hong Feiyu waved his jade fan, stirring up another swath of stars shrouded in black immortal light, which slammed at the distant Universal Emptiness Sword Buddha.

The Universal Emptiness Sword Buddha was locked in combat with four powerful foes. Although he sensed the danger and immediately tried to dodge, the stars still swept across him, dealing him a heavy blow.

He was sent flying backward, and numerous startling wounds ripped open all over his body.

“Your turn!” Hong Feiyu didn’t stop. He just turned his attention toward the closest target, the Wood Spirit Monarch, and attacked explosively.

He obviously wanted to take them down one by one, then target Su Yi.

But how could the four Cloud Soaring Realm powerhouses the Universal Emptiness Sword Buddha had been fighting pass up this opportunity? All of them immediately went in for the kill.

Su Yi frowned, and cold murderous intent surged in the depths of his gaze.
