Realms In The Firmament

Chapter 1900 - 1900: Lost?

Chapter 1900 : Lost?

Ye Xiao floated high in the sky, his snow white robe dancing hurriedly in the wind and his sleeves swirling in the air. His eyes were as strict as lightning, no longer seeing the indifference in them again.

Opposite of him, Mo Feiyun also stood, his expression increasingly sharp as he stared at Ye Xiao. He coldly said, “This battle, I will not stay my hand!”

Ye Xiao wryly laughed. “Be at ease, I will show mercy to my subordinate!”

Mo Feiyun coldly grunted. Suddenly, his two hands unexpectedly opened up, and the black robe he was bundled in swelled up, welcoming the wind. With a “hu” sound exploding out, thousands of meters of the nearby clouds and mist were squeezed in to come over between them!

One after another sharp and frantic sword rays appeared, and then soon afterwards, lightning appeared majestically in the middle of the clouds and mist!

Ye Xiao’s empty hand flipped over, and the Monarch’s Sword subsequently appeared in his grasp. With the edge pointing towards the dome of heaven, he decidedly shouted, “Come then!”

Mo Feiyun let out a long hiss, and the countless sword lights circling around his body suddenly came together and combined to form a fierce tiger. Nodding its head and shaking its tail, it was remarkably true to life. With a heaven swallowing momentum, it dashed towards Ye Xiao.

Ye Xiao’s long sword circled under him, actually wrapping his whole body up and combining together with the sword light.

This wasn’t the customary body sword union technique of a cultivator. Rather... in this one moment, Ye Xiao’s whole person thoroughly disappeared between heaven and earth. Only that one sword light remained, and nothing more!

The sword light wasn’t long, just three chi (one meter). The sword light wasn’t broad, just half the width of a palm!

From a simple visual assessment, it was merely one sword’s qi form!

But, there wasn’t just the one sword!

The sword light silently approached the tiger, confronting that blatant, in-your-face heaven swallowing fierce tiger. It refused to get out of the way, and one could see that it would result in a head on collision!

Mo Feiyun’s body was several tens of meters away, and right away he keenly felt the arrival of a thick sword qi that had accumulated power and was waiting for action. It seemed to be inexhaustible. His complexion abruptly changed, and his two hands came together unexpectedly. Outside of the brightly colored tiger, a gigantic golden dragon unexpectedly appeared out of thin air!

The gigantic dragon was several thousand meters in length and was of ample stature. Although it had appeared suddenly, its prestige and momentum was unexpectedly even higher by a level than the heaven swallowing fierce tiger. With a malevolent roar, astonishingly the dragon and tiger combined their assault power!

However, Mo Feiyun’s offensive was unexpectedly still not limited to this. After the gigantic dragon, he also had a seven colored phoenix, carrying a disdainful look and flagrantly lofty above heaven and earth!

In a moment, the dragon, tiger, and phoenix, these three strong creatures, flowed together and pooled their momentum without making any big waves. This move made their destructive power stronger by at least fivefold and maybe even higher than that, compared to the original heaven swallowing fierce tiger.

Confronting this sort of extreme maneuver, how could Ye Xiao possibly respond?!

Not having any sort of response or contingency, Ye Xiao’s sword shape was exactly as before, completely without any changes whatsoever. Was this answering ten thousand changes by not changing?

Isn’t this treating this matter a bit too triflingly?!

Apparently average, without any sort of strangeness or floweriness to it, this plain and simple sword shape directly faced the Dragon Tiger Phoenix Three Extremes Convergence!

Of course because both sides’ methods of forming qi had a large disparity, completely without compare, one could only pity the scene. The judgement of victory and defeat didn’t stop these qi forms, and they directly combined in an open fight!

Pu!

The methods of both sides directly contacted in an instant. The fierce tiger took the lead to dissipate, changing into a point of starlight. Unexpectedly, although it seemed like it couldn’t contend at all, Ye Xiao’s sword shape destroyed the remainder of the fierce tiger. Without ceasing its advance it crashed into the middle of that huge dragon body’s shape. It started by breaking through the dragon’s head, its power irresistible, and it directly penetrated all the way through and out the back of the dragon’s tail.

Therefore, the huge dragon also did not survive!

However, the Three Extremes’ phoenix subsequently came next.

Ye Xiao, in one swell of qi, had destroyed both the dragon and tiger shapes. Was it possible that he would again be weakened by the three and exhausted?

No, absolutely not, because Ye Xiao’s one sword shadow still kept its previous condition, neither growing nor extinguishing, neither increasing nor decreasing, meeting everything head on!

Afterwards, this last phoenix shape also immediately turned into a heavenly explosion of broken points of light.

The Three Extremes Convergence maneuver, once brought into contact with Ye Xiao’s one tranquil, calm sword, not only completely couldn’t contend with it, but also so much so that it didn’t decrease Ye Xiao’s approaching momentum by even a little? Wasn’t this a little impossible?!

Up to this point, Mo Feiyun’s unchanging expression held, but now his complexion finally changed. His hand seemed like it threw out many swords glittering like frost and snow along their lengths. They directly welcomed Ye Xiao’s continually piercing sword shape.

This time, Ye Xiao’s sword shape finally had some sort of variation. The sword light seemed the same as a swimming dragon, strongly rotating around. It encircled Mo Feiyun’s quicksilver-like swiftly flowing offensive. The countless wind and clouds nearby were all smashed and scattered by the infiltration of this inexhaustible sword light.

Mo Feiyun calmly and collectedly waved his sword to meet this attack. He concealed himself so well that the wind and rain could not penetrate, and not a single drop of water pierced through. It was really outstanding!

No more outstanding than the other side, one could say, as it was also equated by Ye Xiao’s one sword light that forced him to passively defend and be completely incapable of attacking, sinking into unbearable circumstances.

However, Mo Feiyun was not worried one bit. In a heavy voice, he said, “Monarch Ye, this one sword of yours is truly exceedingly wonderful, but can your attack continue for a long time, is this really good?! If it can’t last, as long as I can withstand it, your offensive will be exhausted. Once that happens, then when this Mo counterattacks, what will Monarch Ye use to resist it?”

The sword light was still sweeping back and forth by itself. Ye Xiao didn’t utter a single sound nor allowed it to stop. That Sword ray’s path was unexpectedly growing faster and faster, just like the howling wind and torrential rain, it was continuous and unending.

Dang dang dang...

Mo Feiyun had already established his set tactics, and continued to carry out the strictest defense, using his essence energy and fundamental strength to painstakingly control his long sword with tiny movements, urging his sword strength and sword wind to resist Ye Xiao’s sword ray. As they continuously impacted each other, it issued out a continuous sheet of rushing noise.

However, with this exchanging of opinions through blows, Mo Feiyun could confirm his judgement!

Ye Xiao’s cultivation level had stopped at Undead Stage rank 8 peak, and still hadn’t arrived at rank 9. His own cultivation level, though, was already Undead Stage rank 9 middle, so there was a big level of difference between the two people. This was indeed equivalent to a large gap.

He was fundamentally unafraid of this sort of completely lacking flowery and fake movements, a hard and strong clash staking it all.

Ye Xiao’s dominant and fierce strike would sooner or later be dragged to an end by his meticulous defense!

But what Mo Feiyun didn’t understand was why, with Ye Xiao’s level of mastery, he didn’t understand this sort of simple thing?

Ye Xiao’s attack was undoubtably sharp, but it fundamentally wasn’t able to bring about an injury to him. If this proceeded, the final outcome could only be the exhaustion of his strength first. As Ye Xiao made a move this way, even if he was outstanding, it was eventually too much of a waste for his cultivation level!

Once his strength was exhausted, even Ye Xiao’s heavenly cultivation level would be hard pressed to resist his counterattack!

Therefore Mo Feiyun was seriously unable to understand, why was Ye Xiao persevering in the end?

Don’t tell me that this is the momentum of riding a tiger and being hard to get off, that he’s unwilling to lose face and this is only maintaining making an effort!?

If this was the case, Mo Feiyun even more didn’t dare to entrust the brothers of the Brotherhood to this sort of personage!

Mo Feiyun couldn’t figure it out even after he puzzled over it for a while, and he became even more suspicious. However, he suddenly saw Ye Xiao’s sword light offensive unexpectedly appear chaotic, collapsing and falling apart. His whole person was immediately even more repulsed.

Mo Feiyun, upon seeing this, was even more disdained to take action. Ye Xiao’s offensive had already dispersed, and that was equal to completely exposing himself. Even if he understood and directly conceded defeat, since the battle had arrived up until this point, having nothing to do with life or death, as Ye Xiao had handled the matter in this way, that was simply attempting to annoy him to death, to the point of wanting to beat him up!

“Exhausting one’s limited capabilities!” Mo Feiyun instantly reacted by dashing up, his sword light having an unprecedented sudden rise!

Ye Xiao withdrew by three thousand zhang (10,000 meters), it was seriously one motion of a thousand li.

However, Mo Feiyun chased him down, not only overtaking this distance but even more chasing after this Ye Xiao.

“You...”

Mo Feiyun’s longsword coldly stabbed out the remaining distance, his heart bearing an indescribable sigh.

Ye Xiao had lost, the Brotherhood would be taking a separate road from the Monarch’s Hall.
