Chapter 1343
The Death of the Azure Lotus Sword Immortal
The moment the words fell.
The figure of True Lord Yunyuan seemed to blend into the entire frozen world.
He did not release any earth-shattering demonic energy, but the pressure of the laws originating from a Mahayana cultivator was still present.
But like an invisible millstone of heaven and earth, it slowly turned, intending to grind Ye Yang and the Azure Lotus Sword Immortal into dust.
"The game is over."
Yunyuan Zhenjun spoke indifferently, as if stating a given fact.
The next moment, he slowly raised a finger.
At his fingertips, a wisp of pitch-black demonic energy slowly condensed, containing terrifying Dao principles of spatial shattering and the annihilation of all laws.
"Let's do it!"
With a roar, the Azure Lotus Sword Immortal's survival instinct overcame all fear.
He knew all too well that any hesitation in the face of such a being would be a death sentence.
"Azure Lotus Sword Realm!"
In an instant, the Azure Lotus Sword Immortal's sword intent soared into the sky, and countless azure lotus flowers bloomed from the void, instantly transforming into a sword world that covered a hundred miles, enveloping the three of them completely.
Within the Sword Realm, laws exist in their own right.
Thousands of azure lotus sword energies, condensed from sword intent, swept towards True Monarch Yunyuan like a raging storm!
Ye Yang dared not hold back in the slightest.
The Dragon Abyss Sword emitted a deafening dragon roar, and the Evil King Blade hung above their heads, casting down a thick, mountain-like golden light to protect their minds.
"go with!"
With a single swing of his sword, the Evil King Blade and the Dragon Abyss Sword transformed into a dazzling meteor, aiming straight for True Monarch Yunyuan's brow!
A combined attack from the two of them would be enough to instantly kill any cultivator at the peak of the Thunder Tribulation Realm.
However, all of this seemed so pale and powerless in the face of that slowly pointing, jet-black finger.
"The light of a firefly dares to rival the brilliance of the moon?"
A disdainful sneer curled at the corner of Yunyuan Zhenjun's lips.
The finger, imbued with demonic energy, touched lightly.
hum!
There was no earth-shattering roar, only a buzzing sound that seemed to come from the depths of the netherworld.
The next moment, the entire Azure Lotus Sword Realm trembled violently.
Those thousands of indestructible blue lotus sword energies.
Upon touching the ripples spreading from that wisp of demonic energy, it was as if ice and snow met the sun, instantly melting into nothingness.
Ye Yang's sword light, which resembled a falling star, was still a hundred feet away from True Monarch Yunyuan.
It was then fixed in mid-air by an invisible force, and then shattered inch by inch, turning into countless points of light and dissipating.
"puff!"
When the Azure Lotus Sword Realm was destroyed, the Azure Lotus Sword Immortal was struck as if by lightning, spitting out a mouthful of blood, his face instantly turning as pale as paper.
His sword realm, painstakingly cultivated for a thousand years, was as fragile as a sheet of paper in front of this Mahayana-level demonic cultivator.
"senior!"
Ye Yang was shocked and immediately activated the Xuanwu Suppressing World Law to try to protect the Azure Lotus Sword Immortal.
But True Lord Yunyuan moved even faster.
He moved with a swift movement, appearing like a ghost in front of the Azure Lotus Sword Immortal, and lightly placed a palm on his chest.
boom!
The protective sword aura of the Azure Lotus Sword Immortal shattered instantly, his sternum collapsed in an instant, and he flew backward like a kite with a broken string.
He crashed violently into the pillar of light on the distant altar, his blood staining his blue robes crimson.
"Vulnerable."
Yunyuan Zhenjun shook his head, seemingly somewhat disappointed, and then his gaze fell on Ye Yang, his eyes filled with a hint of greed.
"Hand over the Xuanwu Heaven-Suppressing Seal, and I might grant you a quicker death."
"Don't think about it!"
Ye Yang's eyes were bloodshot, and a surge of rage and helplessness welled up in his heart.
But the Mahayana realm is just too powerful! So powerful that it inspires despair!
He fought the Azure Lotus Sword Immortal with all his might, but couldn't even touch the hem of the other's clothes before one was dead and the other was injured.
"Since you don't know what's good for you, then I'll extract your soul as well and refine it into my demon slave."
Yunyuan Zhenjun lost his patience, and his demonic energy finally began to surge.
He took a step forward, and his figure vanished instantly.
Ye Yang felt a deadly crisis enveloping his entire body.
Before he could even react, a cold hand had already gripped his throat and lifted him up.
The terrifying demonic energy seeped into his body through his palm, frantically destroying his meridians.
Ye Yang felt as if all his power was being suppressed, and even moving a finger became a luxury.
"ended."
Yunyuan Zhenjun slowly tightened his five fingers, his eyes as cold as knives.
At this critical moment, a resolute glint flashed in the eyes of the Azure Lotus Sword Immortal lying in a pool of blood in the distance.
Despite his severe injuries, he combined the Star Mark Sword and the Azure Lotus Sword into one, and with his last bit of strength, hurled it towards True Monarch Yunyuan's back!
"The two swords combine!"
This sword strike burned his life essence, its speed transcending time and space.
Its power reached a peak he had never experienced in his life!
"Ok?"
Yunyuan Zhenjun frowned slightly, seemingly not expecting that a person on the verge of death could unleash such an attack.
He had no choice but to release Ye Yang and turn around to throw a punch.
Boom!
As fists and swords clashed, a terrifying energy storm instantly swept across the entire altar.
The Azure Lotus Sword Immortal's two swords were sent flying by a single punch.
The light shone dimly into the distant ice.
He coughed up another mouthful of blood, his aura weakened to the extreme, and he completely lost consciousness.
Yunyuan Zhenjun was also knocked back half a step, and a shallow sword mark was left on his black demon robe.
Although it was harmless, it undoubtedly enraged him.
"You ants, how dare you hurt me!"
Yunyuan Zhenjun's face was so gloomy it was almost dripping with water.
He no longer held back, and a world-destroying demonic power soared into the sky, aimed directly at Ye Yang, who had just regained his footing after being blasted away by the aftershocks of the energy.
"I will annihilate you, body and soul!"
He unleashed a palm strike, a massive, all-encompassing demonic palm that pressed down upon Ye Yang with an aura of annihilation!
This palm strike locked down the space, sealing off all escape routes.
Ye Yang felt his very soul trembling; the shadow of death was clearer than ever before.
He knew he couldn't escape or avoid it!
Only a fight to the death!
"what!"
Ye Yang roared to the sky, his eyes bloodshot, and the power within his body burned wildly without reservation at this moment!
"Star Armor, appear!"
With a loud shout, countless stellar energies surged from his body.
Instantly, a dazzling silver armor materialized on his body. Stars swirled and runes flickered on the armor, exuding boundless majesty.
boom!
As the demonic hand descended, the Star Armor could only withstand the pressure for less than a breath before letting out a mournful cry of despair, crumbling inch by inch and transforming into a sky full of starlight.
"The Black Tortoise Suppresses the World's Law!"
Ye Yang formed a hand seal, and the Xuanwu Zhentian Seal shone brightly with golden light. A phantom image of the Xuanwu Sacred Beast, towering between heaven and earth, appeared behind him.
Ancient Dao patterns lit up on the tortoise shell, transforming into an indestructible absolute defense to meet the descending demonic hand.
Click!Click!
The demonic hand collided with the phantom of Xuanwu, producing a teeth-grinding cracking sound.
Even the Xuanwu Divine Armor, renowned for its unparalleled defense, began to show hideous cracks in the face of absolute power.
"Block it for me!" Ye Yang bled from all seven orifices, his body almost bursting under the terrifying pressure.
He knew that wasn't enough!
At the critical moment of life and death, a flash of inspiration struck him.
He forcibly activated the sword realm techniques taught by the Azure Lotus Sword Immortal.
"Azure Lotus...Sword Realm...Open!"
He forcibly invoked the sword laws of heaven and earth, centering on himself.
One after another, still ethereal blue lotus flowers bloomed around him, forming an extremely unstable, nascent sword realm that could collapse at any moment.
This incomplete sword realm is far from the perfect one of the Azure Lotus Sword Immortals.
But the instant it appeared, it successfully disarmed a trace of the power of law in the demon's grasp.
Rumble!
Ultimately, under the triple defenses of the Star Armor, the Xuanwu World-Suppressing Law, and the Incomplete Sword Realm, it prevailed.
That devastating demonic force was finally barely held back.
The violent aftershocks of energy, like a tsunami, violently hurled Ye Yang.
He fell heavily to the ground like a leaf in a storm, his bones shattered, his meridians severed, and his breath extremely weak.
"what?!"
For the first time, an expression of disbelief and shock appeared in Yunyuan Zhenjun's eyes.
He stared intently at Ye Yang, who was struggling to get up from the ruins, his heart filled with turmoil.
A cultivator in the mid-stage of the Tribulation Realm actually... actually blocked my furious attack!
Although it only blocked the aftershocks of the attack, it was still a miracle!
This kid's hidden strength and potential far exceeded his imagination!
"This child must not be allowed to live!"
The killing intent in Yunyuan Zhenjun's heart reached its peak.
He gave Ye Yang no chance to catch his breath, and his figure flashed again.
A jet-black demonic sword appeared in his hand, and he slashed down at Ye Yang's head!
At this moment, Ye Yang was completely exhausted and didn't even have the strength to lift his eyelids.
He could clearly feel the sharp sword energy locking onto his brow.
Am I really going to die here?
Just as his consciousness was about to sink into darkness, an old and urgent voice boomed in his mind.
It's the Xuanwu Sacred Beast!
"Fellow Daoist! Quickly! Use the Xuanwu Heaven-Suppressing Seal to activate the power of the altar and enter the inheritance barrier! That is the only way to survive!"
The voice was like a wake-up call, instantly bringing Ye Yang back to his senses.
He bit his tongue hard, using the last bit of his divine sense to communicate with the Xuanwu Zhentian Seal, which was floating in front of him with a dim light.
"open!"
A roar that came from the depths of the soul.
hum! ! !
The Xuanwu Heaven-Suppressing Seal burst forth with unprecedentedly brilliant golden light, as if a sun were rising in this frozen land.
On the ancient seal, the tortoise and snake pattern came to life, letting out a roar that shook the heavens.
A powerful and vast ancient divine might burst forth from the seal, resonating strongly with the white divine jade altar!
In an instant, the pillar of light reaching the sky in the center of the altar shone brightly.
A golden barrier, visible to the naked eye, rippled outwards like waves.
"not good!"
Yunyuan Zhenjun's expression changed drastically. He hadn't expected this kid to have this trick up his sleeve, and the speed of the demonic sword in his hand increased by three points.
But it was too late!
With his last bit of strength, Ye Yang grabbed the unconscious Azure Lotus Sword Immortal beside him and transformed into a golden streak of light.
Just before the demonic sword fell, he suddenly rushed into the golden barrier!
boom!!!
Yunyuan Zhenjun's demonic sword slammed into the golden barrier, unleashing a deafening roar.
The entire frozen star was trembling violently, and countless bottomless cracks spread out.
However, the seemingly thin golden barrier only rippled slightly before completely neutralizing the sword strike that was powerful enough to shatter stars.
Damn it!
Seeing Ye Yang and the Azure Lotus Sword Immortal inside the barrier, True Monarch Yunyuan was furious.
He attacked the barrier frantically, unleashing a torrent of demonic energy and flashing sword light.
Yet it remained completely unshaken.
……
Within the barrier lies another world.
Here, there is none of the coldness and desolation of the outside world; instead, it is filled with peace and warmth.
An ancient, vast, and majestic aura of the Great Dao flowed through the air as if it were a tangible substance.
At the center of that towering pillar of light, countless mysterious golden characters slowly rose and fell.
Every word seems to contain the ultimate truth of the universe, captivating anyone who glances at it.
Immortal-Stabilizing Technique!
As soon as Ye Yang entered the barrier, he could no longer hold on and fell to the ground with the Azure Lotus Sword Immortal.
He was panting heavily. Looking at the breathtaking scene before him, a surge of ecstasy welled up within him.
They... succeeded!
However, the one who was even more excited than him was the Azure Lotus Sword Immortal, who should have been unconscious.
He had woken up at some point, and now his eyes were wide open, staring intently at the golden characters, his eyes shining with an unprecedented brilliance.
It was a kind of fervent excitement, like the feeling of "If I hear the truth in the morning, I can die content in the evening."
"The Immortal Stabilization Technique... This is the true Immortal Stabilization Technique! The Great Dao is simple, returning to one's original nature... So that's it, so that's it!"
He muttered to himself, as if he had fallen into some kind of epiphany.
The previously listless atmosphere suddenly experienced a brief resurgence.
"Senior, you..."
Upon seeing this, Ye Yang was overjoyed and was about to speak.
"puff!"
The Azure Lotus Sword Immortal suddenly spat out a mouthful of black blood mixed with fragments of internal organs. His rising aura deflated instantly, like a punctured balloon.
His eyes quickly dimmed as well.
The palm strike from True Lord Yunyuan had already shattered his internal organs and extinguished his life force.
He was just barely holding on.
"Ye Yang..."
The Azure Lotus Sword Immortal turned his head with difficulty, a bitter smile appearing on his face.
"I...I'm afraid I can't make it...cough cough..."
With each word he uttered, more blood gushed from the corner of his mouth.
"This Immortal Stabilization Technique is infinitely profound. You...you have exceptional talent. You must comprehend it and survive..."
"Don't worry about me... If you get a chance... you... run first..."
"senior!"
Ye Yang's heart tightened.
"There is a legacy of the Immortal Stabilization Technique here, and abundant immortal energy. It should be able to heal you!"
Before he finished speaking, he raised his hand with trembling hands. A faint light flashed at his fingertips, and a pure white pill exuding a rich medicinal fragrance appeared in his palm.
This was the "Nine-Turn Rejuvenation Pill" that he had refined using the combined power of the Flying Heaven Sect before setting off.
This elixir can bring the dead back to life and heal flesh and bones. He usually treasures it and has never been willing to use it.
At this moment, Ye Yang carefully pried open the Azure Lotus Sword Immortal's jaw and sent the pill inside.
The pill melted instantly upon entering the throat, and a warm, mellow medicinal power spread out in an instant.
Ye Yang dared not delay for a moment. He immediately sat cross-legged and carefully transferred his remaining Dao power into the body of the Azure Lotus Sword Immortal.
Then, guiding the medicinal power, it gradually repaired his broken meridians and damaged internal organs. (End of Chapter)
