Chapter 1402: Go Together
As the two powerful sword attacks collided, an alarming amount of sword qi spread in all directions, transforming into a heavy rain of swords. The shiny rain of swords made the entire world look like it was filled with stars, creating an exceptionally enchanting sight.
The Yin Mother Sword was worthy of being one of the most powerful weapons in existence. When Xiang Shaoyun channeled his energy into it, it was completely capable of contending against Lei Wuqing's sword. It even gained a slight upper hand, leaving several deep scars on Lei Wuqing's body.
Lei Wuqing did not show any fear despite his injuries. A look of excitement covered his face as he said, "What an exceptional weapon. It must be mine!"
He then accelerated and continued attacking Xiang Shaoyun. He moved nimbly with his self-created Emotionless Steps. Each step he took was unpredictable, and a regular Saint wouldn't even be able to see his movements. As he moved, he swung his sword repeatedly, covering the sky with wave after wave of emotionless sword qi. It seemed impossible to escape the net of swords he had created.
Not far away, Hua Ruren and Madam Yu Huan wore solemn expressions. If they were the ones fighting Lei Wuqing, how long would they last?
Emotionless dao, it is indeed scary, thought the two inwardly.
Xiang Shaoyun was no regular Saint. He had the Imperial Nether Domain and had mastered numerous profundities. His gift of instincts allowed him to see through Lei Wuqing's footwork and sword qi. Utilizing his footwork intent and powered by the devil dao, he swung his Yin Mother Sword at the openings he saw with his gift of instincts.
Xiang Shaoyun wasn't attacking with a saint-grade technique. Rather, he was using a true god-grade technique. Although he couldn't fully unleash the Yin Sword Technique's prowess because he was only using the devilish energy, the technique was still powerful enough to contend against Lei Wuqing.
As they clashed against each other, Xiang Shaoyun's confidence rose. Devilish energy shrouded his entire body as his combat strength continued to rise. Endless sword qi shot out, helping him to match Lei Wuqing evenly.
Sword qi clashed again and again, causing the world around them to shake violently. Lei Wuqing was definitely not a weak opponent. His combat strength was comparable to a Great Saint. Nobody below the Great Saint Realm was his match. His sword was emotionless, and each strike caused blood to flow.
With an outstanding weapon, his initial comprehension of the devil dao, his newly advanced cultivation level of third-stage Devil Saint Realm, and the rune, Xiang Shaoyun possessed the strength to contend against Great Saints. He had a terrifying ability to punch far above his class.
The two clashed again and again, causing sword qi to spread in all directions and the sky to darken. It did not seem like a victor was going to be decided anytime soon. Hua Ruren and Madam Yu Huan couldn't even enter the battlefield. Or, to be precise, the two were waiting for the perfect opportunity before making a move. They did not want to give up on Xiang Shaoyun's treasures so easily.
More and more sword wounds were left on Xiang Shaoyun and Lei Wuqing, but their battle intent only kept rising the longer they fought. Xiang Shaoyun did not want to keep this up, as there were two other powerful Saints waiting for an opportunity to strike. He had to find a way to drag them into the fight as well.
How did this kid become so strong? It must be all thanks to that weapon! thought Lei Wuqing.
With a swing of his sword, Xiang Shaoyun forced Lei Wuqing to retreat a bit before swinging at Hua Ruren and Madam Yu Huan.
"I thought you wanted to kill me? Come together," said Xiang Shaoyun as he became one with his sword and sent a massive amount of sword qi at the two.
"Audacious! This Saint will personally exterminate you, devil!" said Hua Ruren as he brandished his massive ink brush.
Instantly, a massive character was drawn in the air, and a powerful force rushed toward Xiang Shaoyun. This attack wasn't too much weaker than Lei Wuqing's attacks. Madam Yu Huan showed no fear as well. Her eight rings flew out, leaving a series of afterimages as a blue radiance covered the sky and destroyed all life in the sky.
Lei Wuqing did not mind their intrusion into the battlefield. A smile formed on his face as he thought, We should have joined hands long ago. He thought of taking this chance to perform a pincer attack on Xiang Shaoyun, but he stopped after some hesitation. Instead, he took this chance to heal some of his injuries and recover his energy.
In his mind, only after Xiang Shaoyun was tangled with Hua Ruren and Madam Yu Huan would he be able to deal the finishing blow. He needed some time to draw a plan.
When the attacks of Hua Ruren and Madam Yu Huan came for Xiang Shaoyun, Xiang Shaoyun swung his sword, stopping their attacks. The impact was so massive that his hand felt numb. The skin on his palm was torn from the impact, and his blood flowed.
He had exhausted too much of his strength fighting Lei Wuqing. With the addition of two opponents, he finally looked tired.
"I'll finish you off while you're down!" said Madam Yu Huan, overjoyed to see Xiang Shaoyun showing signs of weakness. She moved swiftly and sent all eight of her rings out, surrounding Xiang Shaoyun with eight rings that could cut everything in their way into nothingness.
As for Hua Ruren, he seemed to sense something, and he hurriedly retreated instead of advancing. Abruptly, Gui Qi showed himself and bombarded Madam Yu Huan with a series of soul attacks. At the same time, his pair of wings flapped repeatedly and assaulted Madam Yu Huan with an illusionary power. Caught by complete surprise, Madam Yu Huan's soul was struck, causing her body to go stiff temporarily.
A sneer formed on Xiang Shaoyun's mouth as he swung his Yin Mother Sword. With a flash, Madam Yu Huan's body was sliced apart. A terrifying scene unfolded as a rain of flesh and blood fell from the sky.
At this time, Lei Wuqing made a move as he roared, "Kid, die!"
Sword held in both his hands, a terrifying aura erupted from his body as he gathered all his energy into the tip of his sword. With one slash, a path of nothingness was created, and space was shattered. Nothing could stop this slash.
Even a Great Saint would fear such a slash. This attack was simply too terrifying. Not far away, Hua Ruren's entire body turned cold as he retreated again and again. Inwardly, he thought, Emotionless sword dao, severing all emotions. What a madman.
Xiang Shaoyun had just killed Madam Yu Huan when he sensed Lei Wuqing's sword coming. All the hair on his body stood on end, as he could feel that if he failed to stop this sword, he would die. He instantly released his Imperial Nether Domain, determined to stop it.
"I knew you would try this. Break!"
