Immortal of the Ages

Chapter 063 - One Sword Splits the Throat, Ten Thousand Swords Pierce the Heart! (1)

“Do you think I can't finish you off?” Yun Xiao’s head snapped up with sudden intensity. He barely spared Ye Tiance, who was in the midst of performing his world-dominating suppression, a glance. His crimson eyes locked with relentless intent on Yao Manxue.

With a hum, his body shimmered, and in the blink of an eye, he was gone! His azure Sword Soul transformed into a six-foot-long Sovereign Sword, suspended mid-air.

Leaping onto his sword, Yun Xiao blasted off, his body morphed into a rushing azure dragon, unstoppable and awe-inspiring. The scene was a fusion of power and grace that left onlookers breathless.

“Azure Sky Will!” The crowd exclaimed in shock once more. The fastest and the mightiest of Azure Spirit's Sovereign Sword Techniques! Its name symbolized an indomitable spirit that aimed to sweep the heavens and flatten the clouds, unmatched in gallantry.

This Sovereign Sword Technique mirrored Yun Xiao's current state of mind perfectly. You think I can't kill you? Think again! And with a sudden acceleration, he sped past Ye Tiance. He was so fast, that his figure became a blur, uncatchable by the naked eye, cutting through the army of three hundred Sword Cultivators!

Yun Xiao plunged into the crowd. His Sovereign Sword instantly morphed into a Palm Sword. With a swift, sure thrust, he plunged the azure blade forward.

“Azure Dragon Squall!” Again, the spectators cried out in shock. The sword, much like an azure dragon on the prowl, was swift and fierce.

Yao Manxue, who had stood smugly off to the side, suddenly found her world tilting. She was so taken aback by the lightning-fast attack that her mind blanked, and in a panic, she deflected with her own sword!

She couldn't believe that Yun Xiao disregarded Ye Tiance. Even more unbelievable was the fact that he, using Azure Sky Will, could launch an attack from the front! But even more unexpected was this Azure Dragon Squall...

“No!” she cried out. Her own sword was sent flying, nearly shattered by the force of the impact. A sickening squelch resonated in the air. Yun Xiao’s sword had pierced through her abdomen, severing her Dantian!

“Ahhh!” Yao Manxue looked down in horror, her abdomen wrapped in tendrils of black smoke while her blood and flesh transformed to a thick, inky liquid. This was the terrifying power of the Sword Ring!

“M-my Dantian! My magic power! My path to Immortality...” Yao Manxue spluttered between gushes of blood.

Beside her, Yun Xiao swiftly withdrew his sword, and the magic power burst forth from the wound in her abdomen, causing it to swell momentarily like that of a frog.

In her desperation, Yao Manxue locked gazes once again with Yun Xiao, his icy stare only amplified her gnawing fear.

Yao Manxue, awash in a cascade of anguish and defeat, seethed under the lethal stance of Yun Xiao. Her voice trembled, a futile mix of desperation and defiance.

"Yun Xiao, with Ye Tiance and three hundred Sword Cultivators here, y-your death is guaranteed!"

Her voice hardly phased him, "Even with ten thousand at your side, I’ll slay you a hundred times over!" His sword, an ethereal stream of silver, danced through the air with lethal precision.

"No, please..." Yao Manxue's plea hung unfinished in the air, a sorrowful melody caught amidst the symphony of impending demise. She almost knelt, but in the next heartbeat, her limbs were soaring separately away from her frame.

A beauty, now a gruesome spectacle.

"Yun Xiao, you’ll meet a bitter end... ah!" Her cries, a harrowing dirge, echoed through the silence that followed. Then, a soft thud rang out.

"Silence!" With an effortless motion, Yun Xiao severed her tongue.

"Do you think I’ll not meet a good end, Yao Manxue? Did you ponder why I didn’t slay you outright, opting instead for a macabre show?" He snorted, scorn coloring his voice, "No, no! Today, I will ensure you all—cohorts of demons—meet an end even more abominable than theirs!"

Hearing the youthful yet chilling vow, Yao Manxue crumbled entirely, a broken husk of despair. Fear, stark and resonant, replaced the defiance in her eyes as they desperately sought Ye Tiance, her only strand of hope against a dreadful demise.

Ye Tiance, upon witnessing the cruel eradication of his two competent subordinates, especially Yao Manxue, ignited into a tempest of rage! Yun Xiao debilitated his beloved mistress, Manxue, under his very gaze, subjecting him to an unparalleled dishonor, a myriad of metaphorical slaps crashing upon his visage.

His face, darkening and swelling, became a map of fury. Yun Xiao was treading upon his dignity while massacring his people. Yet, he remained the undoubted paramount of the Azure Spirit Sword Sect!

Anguish and wrath bubbled within Ye Tiance, who hadn't anticipated that such a shift in the situation could have arisen from the emergence of this youth.

Where was Moon Fairy? Where were the other demons? Confusion muddled his thoughts, but at that moment, he had but one choice. And that was to strangle this prodigiously talented disciple of the Sword Pavilion in the cradle! contemporary romance

Forget ten days; he could not grant this monstrosity even one more day! A day too much and Ye Tiance feared that even Ye Guying might fall under his sword.

“We can still dispose of him now! All righteous warriors of the true path, follow me to execute this demon-spawn nurtured by malevolent beings!” With a furious swipe, Ye Tiance unsheathed his sword.

“Kill!” The three hundred Sword Cultivators, having always steadfastly shared his path, still believed wholeheartedly in this master of the Origin Core Realm’s ability to control the battlefield.

“Kill!” How would Shangguan Yu and the others allow Yun Xiao to be besieged? At that moment, they all thundered with rage, electric with vehement fury! Fervor for Yun Xiao! Anguish for the Sect Master! Remorse for the righteous Azure Spirit! Only through slaughter, can they honor the swords in their hands!

“Slay!” Yun Xiao's successive slaughters of two Sword Venerables once again shook Azure Spirit. In just this short time, even more people had gathered. They'd witnessed all of Ye Tiance's shamelessness and even with Ye Guying suppressing them, they couldn't suppress the people’s hearts!

Help was plentiful for the just, scarce for the unjust! More and more Sword Cultivators entered the battlefield, clashing to the death with Ye Tiance’s followers! Chaos erupted once more! A thousand swords flew, blood splattered! And there, in the epicenter of the battlefield, under the gaze of countless eyes, the young man in blood-stained white sprang into action!

HUM! Without hesitating, Yun Xiao in the Late Divine Sea Realm struck toward the Sword Venerable in the Origin Core Realm!

“Yun Xiao, without magic power to support you, what use is a denser Sword Aura, and more exquisite swordplay?” Ye Tiance sneered venomously. Saying this, however, with a swing of his sword, he realized a blade had pierced his shoulder blade, impeding a third of his fighting power!

“I, even wounded, will easily deal with you!” Ye Tiance channeled his magic power, holding his sword with both hands. The magic power swirled around him like a golden storm!

His Golden Plume Sword Soul, like layers of feathers covering it, and a circular Sword Ring encircling the Sword Soul, gave his Sword Aura a bewitching method of emitting blinding golden light!

“Die!” He deployed his Upper Comet grade Palm Sword Technique, Thousand Feathers Goldjade Sword, aiming it straight at Yun Xiao. The Sword Aura howled, and onlookers dared not approach. His might bolstered the confidence of the three hundred Sword Cultivators exponentially!

BUZZ! In the face of such divine power, Yun Xiao abruptly moved. His right hand erupted with an azure light, and a Flying Sword was fiercely hurled! The sword shot into the emptiness, creating successive explosions!

“Ten-Step Scale again? You think I'm not familiar with it?” This was a Flying Sword technique that Ye Tiance had studied his entire life! He knew it all too well! Every sword explosion, every flash of scale light, every rotation, he knew it through and through! He scoffed, slicing again with his sword!

His Palm Sword was even fiercer. As long as it hit its target, it could cut down the Flying Sword! As for if it missed... well, fortune favored the bold!

BOOM BOOM BOOM! The Ten-Step Scale’s azure light exploded ten times in the night sky, arriving before Ye Tiance.

“At such a young age, with the sword sounding ten times, this talent in sword technique is unparalleled even in the Sea of Swords!" In this, Ye Tiance respected Yun Xiao! Ten sword sounds were too terrifying.

"One! Two!" Ye Tiance, with ears keen, silently counted as the sounds emanated through the space. When the eighth sound pierced the air, his sword was thrust forward, the Golden Plume Sword Soul fiercely cleaving through the space!

"Shatter!" Although the Flying Sword was fierce, it was delicate, wasn't it? His eyes erupted with golden light, anticipating the first slash to break the Flying Sword, then to slaughter Yun Xiao! His confidence was boundless, but his sword sliced through only air!

That azure Flying Sword, like a nimble fish, took a sudden twist under his blade, suddenly ringing out again! KLANG! The azure Flying Sword whirled back unexpectedly, skimming past Ye Tiance's Golden Plume Sword Soul, and powerfully rocketed towards his throat!

"Eleven steps, impossible!!!" He had studied the Ten-Step Scale for a lifetime! Eighteen years ago, in his duel with Zhao Jianxing, even three steps of Zhao Jianxing’s Ten-Step Scale couldn't be stopped! He had researched it for a lifetime! How could the sword ring out eleven times?! His mind went blank in an instant!

The azure Flying Sword, grazing his Golden Plume Sword Soul, was like a swordfish suddenly darting out from under the water, sending sparks flying!

PUFF! Ye Tiance felt a chill in his throat! Moving as fast as he could to evade, he was still swept by the sword's tip, his throat and windpipe slit open on the spot!

"Aghh!" His eyes bulged, blood spurting violently from his throat! A sword slit open his throat! He was stupefied, dumbfounded! What in the world kind of technique was this?!

Eleven steps! In this heart-stopping moment, he rapidly took numerous pills and elixirs from his Pouch of Holding; half applied externally, and the other half stuffed directly down his sliced throat. At that moment, his hands trembled immensely, many Spirit Stones from the Pouch of Holding scattering all over the ground!

"No, no, no!" Ye Tiance screamed! After applying the pills and elixirs, his wounds quickly began to heal and improve. But, too much time had been lost! In that instant, he suddenly saw that white figure with an azure sword, already bearing down upon him!

The malicious glint in the young man’s eyes, at this moment, made Ye Tiance feel as if he'd plummeted into hell!

Azure Dragon Squall! Second Move—Ask the Heavens!

This sword, with its wrathful dragon emerging, possessed an aura that shook the heavens!

The azure flying dragon, tainted with a Sword Ring of black poisonous mist, roared furiously. The energy of Primordial Void Technique and the deathly sword aura of the Sword Soul mixed together in a dual blend! Life and death, the might of a single sword, stunned the entire field!

"I am in the Origin Core Realm!" Ye Tiance bellowed, though his voice leaked through the wind. The severe pain in his throat and shoulder blade rendered his Golden Plume Sword Soul somewhat unstable. Even though he managed to unleash a grandmaster sword intent with a hastily executed strike, it failed to fend off Yun Xiao’s azure dragon sword.

White robes fluttering, a sword cleaved like a dragon!!

KLANG! The Sword Souls collided head-on, an eye-piercing light illuminating the night sky, followed by a sharp, tremendous noise.

CRACK CRACK CRACK! Ye Tiance retreated three steps, cracks manifesting on the golden Sword Soul in his hands! A stream of azure-black mist penetrated his Sword Soul, infiltrating his sword bone along the soul and viciously coursed toward his entire body through the Sword Ring.

"My Sword Soul!" Ye Tiance's complexion turned ghastly pale! His throat continued to bleed, shoulder blade throbbing in agony, and as the poisonous mist entered, his scalp tingled, and a chill cascaded down his spine.
