Only the furthest end of this dark path, like the end of the sky, had the dimmest of glimmering light. It was faint, vaguely visible to the eyes.

No one knew what path this was, there was no hint of its nature either. Everyone who was attacking Yun Yang, however, was immediately struck with an astounding realization - it was the path of reincarnation!

This was the reincarnation passage that only existed in the Yellow Spring of legends.

The inky passage seemed to attract all of the observers’ concentration like it was exuding an indescribable temptation. It caused everyone who saw it to feel stirred, unconsciously ruminating on their past and current lives.

The unique glow belonging to the style Reincarnation Under Saber bloomed in the air. As Yun Yang struck, he felt a strong sensation wrenching at his wrist. An overwhelming force had pushed itself over but it vanished immediately. Feeling the extinguished countering strength, Yun Yang was relieved. Then, a low grunt came from farther away.

Thinking quickly, Yun Yang guessed that it was due to the collision between his Divine Edge and his opponent’s weapon, thus causing the initial obstructing force. His opponent’s cultivation base was obviously tremendous; otherwise, how could the resulting trauma affect him? In spite of this, the legend of the Divine Edge’s unparalleled sharpness still held true. A moment later, the opponent’s weapon had been broken, it’s wielder injured.

The outline of a person flashed once more despite the dark. Two more light beams shot out as Yun Yang’s saber broke his opponent’s weapon and wounded him, coming to a halt before him threateningly.

Yun Yang dared not be mindless, retreating speedily, and at the same time, his saber light switched to a horizontal sweep, his right palm striking backward ferociously.

With a loud bang, the ambusher approaching from his back was flung away by the accurate hit while the sword of another attacker from the side was fractured by the Divine Edge. A man could only do so much, however. Despite Yun Yang’s unreserved counterattack, he could not avoid the last ambush, only having enough time to twist his body before a sharp glint swept across his chest.

As he felt a stabbing pain in his chest, Yun Yang had already retracted his saber and continued his counter-attack with the style, Merciless Dao, dealing it with an intensity several times stronger than his previous rebuff.

A crisp clang resounded. The last person of the four-direction ambush withdrew with a somersault. As he tumbled away, the enemies of the other directions withdrew as well without lingering, as if discussed.

…

On the other side of the altercation, Ji Lingxi’s sword was commanded with flowing ease and persistence. The sparks created were radiant like the fireworks. The girl attacked without care for defense, surprising her four opponents.

How could there be such a feisty girl whose cultivation base was so proficient? It was hard to imagine a girl whose combat power and battle aggression was so overwhelming in this world. Seeing was truly believing!

Nevertheless, such a flawed combat style would lead only to death when it was used against them, the ambushers thought, no matter how proficient Ji Lingxi’s cultivation base.

As their eyes met, two of the attackers had dealt the first set of blows, working together to deflect Ji Lingxi’s sword. One of them strengthened his palm force to divert Ji Lingxi’s right hand away while another person aimed right for the gap and slid to Ji Lingxi’s right side swiftly before he brought down his blade ardently.

The target was Ji Lingxi’s slim neck. There was no hint of gentleness at all, the fact that she was a girl notwithstanding.

Death was already imminent for Ji Lingxi as the battle unfolded to this stage. Although she had an outrageously high cultivation base, it was impossible for her to endure such a direct blow to a vital part of her body!

The girl seemed to be oblivious to the attack, however, as she pushed herself in a frenzy to attack the two collaborating swords in front of her, intending to break the interception and kill her opponents.

It had happened faster than words could tell. The saber light flashed like a zap of electricity and landed precisely on Ji Lingxi’s neck with a loud pop. The attacker’s other arm extended simultaneously, five fingers spread out in a vicious grip; he was planning to behead the girl and leave, grabbing his loot with one hand, to use the head to overwhelm Yun Yang later!

Once he thought about how he would be killing Yun Yang’s prized assistant, his highly capable girlfriend, in one simple strike and throwing this beauty’s head to Yun Yang, he would love to see if the venerable and intimidating Supreme Cloud would break down instantly and lose his composure.

The man’s gaze was brutal, his hand ready to grab his prey, but at the very next moment, he was dumbstruck!

The savage chop that could flatten a mountain and crush rock had indeed landed on the girl’s neck, but it did not behead the target! No - not only did it not sever the head, there was no feeling of hitting anything…

What was happening?

Could there be an oddity to this lady’s defensive arts that allowed her to attack without any care for defending herself?

Right as such a thought occurred to the attacker, he saw a flash of a crimson beam slowly rising from the girl…

‘What’s this again?’

‘Is this the unique phenomenon of her special method?’

The attacker watched as the red light coalesced and gained intensity.

‘It’s coming for me?’

‘What’s this stuff? Why is it so strange?’

The person’s train of thoughts halted right there and then as he abruptly felt his body crash against a mountain - a mountain that was cruising hundreds of thousands of miles in the blink of an eye.

If the scenario had to be described in a manner that everyone could understand, perhaps it could be illustrated as a speeding palanquin crashing against an incoming railing without any deviation of angle.

A deafening boom was but a matter of course!

The other three people who were deflecting Ji Lingxi’s fiery attacks looked over in shock only to see their partner suddenly being flung away. He was like an eagle, soaring to a high altitude with his arms spread out.

Fly high in the sky if you are a hawk! Their partner’s current state was all too similar to that maxim.

Nonetheless, why was this hawk catapulting into the sky bravely at such an incredible speed yet not come down after so long?

The answer was unveiled next.

The silhouette that was flying high, high up into the sky, obviously able to go higher, had come apart as if his physical form could not withstand the pressure! Without a doubt, it was dismembered - definitely. His head, limbs, and body had all separated in different directions.

Was it because he had gone up too fast and the air pressure was too much, thus his body tore itself apart?

The minds of the three people worked promptly, but they could not guess what was going on. It was a horrifyingly macabre puzzle!

The girl opposite of them was still attacking vehemently without any reservation. The sword she held in her hand was unleashing a three hundred percent vigor but the reason was fairly simple - she need not defend herself at all!

Attacking was the best defense, but it did not mean a total absence of caution!

Did they not see someone chopping her neck just now? That was a blow to her vital part; how was she able to continue attacking?

Ji Lingxi who saw that her incessant attacks were futile against the trio’s collaboration as they worked together to deflect her hits suddenly screamed from her frustration. She sheathed her sword then, deciding to run directly over to the trio instead.

What sort of an attack was this? How could there be a style like this in this world?

This was not fearless - this was suicide!

The trio was shocked, knowing that there must be a danger behind an abnormality.

There must be a reason behind the girl’s actions, despite her rage. Two of the trio dared not act recklessly, avoiding their opponent swiftly, but Ji Lingxi was like a hysterical bull, charging to the person in the center. The said person stabbed wildly in the direction of Ji Lingxi’s heart, seeing that the window to evade her enraged charge had closed.
