First Immortal of the Sword

Chapter 424: Su Yi’s Anger

Even earlier, when they fought one-on-one, Ling Yunhe and the Profound Snowfiend Python were no match for Daoist Master Thousand Absolutes and Qi Chongzi.

Now, with Lai Changxiao and Qiu Mochi, the other two Gathering Stars Realm experts, in the mix, man and yao had to fight two against one. This instantly put them at an even greater disadvantage.

Before long, Ling Yunhe was covered in wounds and drenched in blood. He cut an extremely sorry figure.

As for the python, there were now numerous startling gashes on its snow-white body. Blood gushed from its open wounds.

Ling Yunhe sighed. He and the Profound Snowfiend Python were already going all out, but it was obvious that they wouldn’t be able to hold out much longer.

“Dirty beast, how long will you keep struggling? Come to me!” Qi Chongzi was entirely unrestrained. He let out a burst of heaven-shaking laughter, then suddenly stretched out his hand and?grabbed.

Boom!

The silvery lightning filling the skies condensed, transforming into a hundred-foot-wide hand made of pure electricity. It slammed ruthlessly down in an attempt to take the snake alive.

The python was already gravely wounded. When it saw this attack, its bright red eyes shone with bitterness and despondency.

Today, it thought that the opportunity it had waited for so long for had finally fallen into its lap.

Who’d have thought that, just before its chance at metamorphosis arrived, it would meet with such misfortune…?

This… Is this my fate??The Profound Snowfiend Python gave into despair.

But just as it was about to be captured, a cold, infuriated snort rang out!

“Ants like you dare disrupt my enlightenment? You’re seeking death!”

This voice was like the clear hum of a sword, and it went off like an explosion, resounding throughout heaven and earth.

Meanwhile, a tall, lean figure suddenly appeared at the cave’s entrance. He stretched out his hands, slapped, and flicked.

The power of his slap transformed into misty light and swept forth like an axe through bamboo, cutting through the giant lightning hand descending upon the python.

Boom!

Lightning burst, scattering a rain of sparks.

Qi Chongzi’s pupils suddenly constricted.

The Profound Snowfiend Python was stunned too. It had already given into despair, and when it saw that it was the blue-robed, Grain Avoidance Realm youth who’d saved it, it almost thought it was dreaming. It felt utterly unreal.

Meanwhile, Su Yi’s second movement, a wave of his hands, fired an arc of clear sword light. It flashed through the air, appearing before Ling Yunhe.

The domineering, heaven-shaking fist force of Daoist Master Thousand Absolutes’ attack, as well as the jade ruler Lai Changxiao was waving about, instantly burst apart and scattered.

Rumble!

Misty light and erratic energy currents stirred and churned.

Both?Daoist?Master Thousand Absolutes and Lai Changxiao were stunned.

When Ling Yunhe saw Su Yi’s familiar figure, he couldn’t help but smile, and he instantly relaxed.

None of them knew better than him that, despite his Grain Avoidance Realm cultivation, Su Yi was terrifyingly strong!

Now, he’d single-handedly, instantly turned the tides on this grand battle!

His arrival brought the fighting to a temporary standstill. All eyes instantly converged on Su Yi.

“Hm? The Grain Avoidance Realm?” Qi Chongzi exclaimed. He gripped his saber, majestic and imposing.

“This…” Lai Changxiao furrowed his brow in bewilderment.

“Who is this person?” Daoist Master Thousand Absolutes’ eyes flashed like lightning, and his expression filled with murderousness.

“He’s with Ling Yunhe,” said Yan Junshan, sounding alarmed and uncertain. “I assumed he was just one of the One Sky Sword Pavilion’s juniors, but his strength is actually quite impressive.”

“This is somewhat interesting,” said Qiu Mochi, his clothes fluttering around him.

Lian Lengyue and the other five Origin Palace cultivators looked stunned, and their eyes widened in obvious disbelief.

A Grain Avoidance cultivator had turned the tides in the blink of an eye!?

Without seeing it with their own two eyes, who could possibly believe such a thing?

“You two, step back. I’ll deal with this scum myself.” Su Yi strode out of the cave, his gaze icy. It was as if a long pent-up winter wind had escaped confinement, freezing heaven and earth.

Despite the knowledge, experience, and mental state he’d inherited from his previous incarnation, he was angry.

This was rare for him. In truth, this was the first time he’d been truly furious since he first reawakened the memories of his past life.

Even when he fought Su Hongli in the Jade Capital, he didn’t experience any excessive emotional fluctuations.

The reason for his rage was simple: they’d disrupted him right at a critical juncture of his enlightenment.

He was just about to succeed. Who’d have thought that someone would interrupt him?

To Su Yi, cultivating was just as important as his life. He naturally couldn’t tolerate this.

“Shameless and boastful! This old man is curious to see just where a Grain Avoidance Realm pup like you got the courage to bark and growl like that!” The Flying Spirit Sword Pavilion’s Qiu Mochi snorted coldly, then uttered an invocation.

He shifted, blurring into a dim streak of light and appearing before Su Yi at unbelievable speeds. He stabbed his ancient, snake-shaped sword at Su Yi.

The snake-shaped ancient sword was engraved with mysterious runes, and its aura was sinister and imposing. When he swung it, a black serpent soul floated out of the blade, bringing with it a soul-rending, baleful energy. It was terrifying to the extreme.

The Spirit Snake Demon Sword!

This was one of the Flying Spirit Sword Pavilion’s peak-level Origin Dao spiritual weapons. It had been quenched in lethal poison, and it could corrode both souls and flesh.

The cultivation Qiu Mochi displayed in this attack was a full level higher than the Great Chu’s Madam Miaohua, and he was utterly ruthless, too.

“Nothing but an ant.” Su Yi’s gaze was cold and indifferent, with neither joy nor sorrow. He raised a finger and tapped the air.

“Little whelp, you fell for it!” When he saw Su Yi’s finger strike, Qiu Mochi grinned.

In the blink of an eye, the Spirit Snake Demon Sword split into three separate swords, each with a cold, sinister aura.

It was as if three Gathering Stars Realm experts had joined forces, simultaneously attacking Su Yi from all sides!

“Little fellow, you’re still just too young! You have no idea, but when I, Qiu Mochi, conduct my affairs, I always hold fast to a single principle: ‘A lion uses its full strength even when catching a rabbit!’” Qiu Mochi’s eyes lit up with cold glee.

He was currently using the “Flying Spirit Illusory Sword”, one of the Flying Spirit Sword Manor’s three key legacy sword incantations.

Rumor had it that when the sect’s founder unleashed this sword incantation, he could manifest nine sword shadows. Each was real, yet fake, solid yet intangible, and almost impossible to guard against.

More importantly, each illusory sword could briefly explode with power almost identical to the real thing!

Although Qiu Mochi lacked this ability, he could manifest two illusory swords. Against foes of the same realm, this was already terrifying.

Su Yi’s expression didn’t so much as waver, nor did he change tactics. He just let the two illusory swords pierce him as he calmly struck with a single finger and tapped the Spirit Snake Demon Sword.

Crunch!

Qiu Mochi’s smile suddenly froze.

The Spirit Snake Demon Sword wailed. Then, starting from the tip, it shattered one inch at a time. The indomitable force of Su Yi’s finger strike spread up the blade and into Qiu Mochi’s body.

Splurt!

Qiu Mochi was forced back with a spray of blood. First, his defensive treasures and protective aura burst apart like paper mache.

Immediately afterward, his entire body split apart, as if he were a porcelain vase someone had just taken a hammer to. Blood and gore flew through the air.

Su Yi was attacking while enraged. How could this attack’s power possibly be ordinary?

While his attack might have?looked?like a single, casual, understated tap, it struck with as much force as a divine mountain plummeting to earth; its accumulated power was mighty and unstoppable!

Someone like Qiu Mochi was nowhere near capable of defending against that level of power!

As for the two illusory swords? They attempted to pierce Su Yi, only to bounce off with a?clang; it was as if they’d hit an iron wall.

Both were illusions to begin with, and upon encountering an obstacle, they quickly disappeared without a trace.

With just a single tap of the finger, Su Yi broke the Spirit Snake Demon Sword and shattered Qiu Mochi’s physical body.

And he did this without taking even the slightest of injuries!

That bloody, tyrannical, one-sided slaughter astonished everyone present.

“This….” Yan Junshan, Lai Changxiao, Qi Chongzi, and Daoist Master Thousand Absolutes were all visibly shaken.

Qiu Mochi was a first-rate expert of the Southern Skies Province, a long-established Gathering Stars Realm expert.

Yet despite facing a mere Grain Avoidance Realm youth, he failed to block even a single tap of his opponent’s finger!

It was simply appalling!

When the Profound Snowfiend Python saw this, its bright red eyes widened.?This… This is the power of someone in the Grain Avoidance Realm!?

Everyone was stunned but Ling Yunhe. He was already accustomed to this.

He was there when Su Yi cut down Madam Miaohua and her twenty-plus allies. Ling Yunhe had long since realized that he couldn’t judge Su Yi with common sense!

Even among the world’s monstrous geniuses, he feared that few could compare to Su Yi.

Whoosh!

A dark figure suddenly streaked out of the bloody mist. It was Qiu Mochi!

However, all that remained of him was his soul. Astonishment and lingering terror were written all over his face.

“Not dead yet?” Su Yi furrowed his brow.

He’d underestimated the Great Xia’s Gathering Stars Realm cultivators.?This bunch isn’t necessarily all that string, but they’ve got quite a few life-saving methods. Cultivators of other nations can’t even begin to compete.

“You’re just a wisp of soul, that’s all. How long can you last?” Su Yi stepped forward, traversing one thousand feet in just one step, as if the distance didn’t even exist, or as if he’d compressed it down to a single inch. He was before Qiu Mochi in an instant, and his finger bore down once more.

“Save me—!” Qiao Mochi bellowed like mad. His soul power was practically boiling over as he turned and fled.

“Everyone, attack at once,” bellowed Lai Changxiao. He slapped the air, delivering a palm strike from afar.

Boom!

A thirty-foot palm flew forth, emanating monstrous golden light.

“Cut!” Qi Chongzi bellowed.

A streak of saber qi swept through the skies with vast swaths of electrical energy. It was like an electric current sweeping through the heavens, murderous, terrifying, and full of limitless destructive power.

.

The Rampaging Thunder Void-Destroying Saber!

Qi Chongzi had relied on this very attack to become famous. Rampaging Thunder Dao Charm unleashing through his mid-stage Gathering Stars Realm cultivation meant that each strike descended like the wrath of the God of Thunder.

At the same time, Daoist Master Thousand Absolutes suddenly threw a punch.

Boom!

The skies seem to collapse in on themselves as a massive whirlpool?formed. Chaotic air currents scattered with a thunderous boom. The tyrannical force of this fist instantly filled the skies with endless, staunch ferocity.

The Thousand Absolutes Ultimate Martial Fist!

Daoist Master Thousand Absolutes had earned his title through this ancient legacy of a fist technique. One punch was like a thousand, and one strike could dominate the universe!

Three mighty Gathering Stars Realm experts attacked at once. Their combined power was enough to shake both heaven and earth!

“So strong! Yan Junshan gasped.

Lian Lengyue was an Origin Palace cultivator too. Even just watching, she felt a chill course through her entire body, and she found it hard to breathe.

They simply weren’t qualified to get mixed up in this. If they tried, they’d find themselves instantly suppressed, and they’d suffer terrifying damage.

Even the Profound Snowfiend Python and Ling Yunhe’s expressions shifted despite themselves. They could tell at a glance that the Gathering Stars Realm experts were using their ultimate attacks.

“When I, Su Yi, want to kill someone, no one in heaven and earth can stand in my way!” Even with such a terrifying lineup surrounding him, Su Yi’s expression remained as calm and indifferent as ever.

Before his voice even finished echoing through the air, he suddenly stretched, stepped into the air, and met their attacks head-on.
