Chapter 826 - 404: The One Who Kills Me, Liu Yeqing_2
Chapter 826: Chapter 404: The One Who Kills Me, Liu Yeqing_2
He didn’t take any chances, following around Ye Chen and then seeking a suitable opponent at random.
Lu Yun wasn’t blinded by the promise of Combat Achievement Points.
At this moment, with his full strength unleashed, his combat power was comparable to the Eighth Level of the Unity Realm.
However, his current opponents were disciples of the True Word Temple, geniuses among geniuses in the Sky Cloud Region, who cultivated powerful divine abilities and techniques, naturally not to be measured by the standards of a typical Unity Realm.
Therefore, Lu Yun set his sights on those below the Fourth Level of the Unity Realm.
That way, it was easier to kill them.
This battle was different from the one in the Jiu Li Mountain Range.
In that battle, they had the upper hand and surrounded the enemy, allowing him to unleash his strength without restraint.
But in this battle, the numbers were roughly equal, and it was a large-scale fight; enemies were everywhere, so while he concealed his true strength, he also remained vigilant, preventing being surrounded and attacked.
Heaven and Earth Draw Saber Slash!
An immensely powerful Blade Aura burst forth instantaneously, and a True Word Temple disciple at the Second Level of the Unity Realm didn’t even have time to react before being killed instantly.
With the Thunder Divine Power, born from the fusion of two kinds of divine powers, bolstering him, his speed was faster, and his Blade Aura even more severe, easily killing enemies below the Third Level of the Unity Realm in an instant, without giving them a chance to react.
Even those at the Fourth Level of the Unity Realm couldn’t withstand his three slashes.
Without a doubt, with the aid of Thunder Divine Power, his offensive power greatly surpassed his past self.
With equal strength, the higher the offensive power, the higher the efficiency in killing the enemy.
Even though he tried to stay low-key and targeted enemies below the Fourth Level of the Unity Realm, his astonishing kill rate still caught the attention of the strong warriors of the True Word Temple.
“Boom!”
A piercing Sword Qi broke through the sky, stretching hundreds of feet, terrifyingly fearsome, slashing down towards Lu Yun.
His figure flickered; Lu Yun moved swiftly through the air, dodging the attack. Despite his ability to withstand it, he chose not to take it head-on.
Standing tall in the sky, he glanced sideways. The attacker was a young Heavenly Pride, wielding an Ultimate Spirit Weapon, his aura sharp, his intent to kill chilling.
“This person’s strength is impressive,” Lu Yun mused, his eyes flickering with keen light.
“From the Tai Yuan lineage of Green Fire Palace, it’s rare for anyone in the Heavenly Human Realm to easily slay someone at the Third Level of the Unity Realm. Who are you? State your name.” The young genius from True Word Temple, Wang Xin, spoke with an icy voice, his gaze fixed on Lu Yun.
Lu Yun didn’t speak; the Golden Light flashed in his eyes as he used the Eyes of Aurora to instantly see through the opponent’s realm.
The Fifth Level of the Unity Realm!
While realm didn’t necessarily represent one’s strength, having reached this realm implied that the person’s strength couldn’t be weak.
Especially the sharp edge that he could feel from afar, emitting from the opponent, made Lu Yun aware that this was no ordinary opponent.
But since he had been sought out, even a fighter at the Fifth Level of the Unity Realm could be killed.
“He who kills you, Liu Yeqing!” Lu Yun said coldly, as thunder exploded around him, and he struck out in an instant.
“Liu Yeqing?” Wang Xin’s eyebrows knitted slightly.
“Although you’re not on the hit list, the strength you’ve just shown is enough to make you a ghost under my sword.”
With that, he raised his Long Sword, which emitted a brilliance too dazzling to look at directly. Boundless Sword Qi erupted, making him seem like an invincible Sword Immortal who had conquered the world and never known defeat.
“Boom!”
Lu Yun’s foot shattered the air, and the terrifying thunder directly tore the ground apart, with rocks flying all around. He himself was like a lightning bolt, crossing the distance of several hundred feet in an instant.
Fast, his speed was astonishingly fast!
The speed of his burst left Wang Xin, the swordsman, slightly frowning.
Even he fell a bit short of that kind of speed.
But, being fast didn’t mean being strong.
Swish! Swish!
Wang Xin flashed twice, exhibiting a speed not much less than Lu Yun’s, and the two collided in mid-air.
“Boom!”
The crimson, heavy Blood Slaughter Blade, permeated with the terror of thundering sparks, lashed out fiercely as if wielded by a legendary master of Saber Cultivation, exerting all his strength in an earth-shattering slash, carrying an unstoppable majestic power, directly aiming for Wang Xin.
Just as Lu Yun brought down his blade in a slash, Wang Xin moved at the same time, with the World Power from within his body surging forth, pouring directly into the ultimate spirit weapon in his hand.
“Slash!” A dreamlike sword light shone, illuminating the surrounding heaven and earth, directly meeting the blade aura laden with the terrifying Thunder Divine Power.
The two heavenly prides, both extremely confident in their strength, clashed in midair in an instant.
The Blood Slaughter Blade was heavy, suffused with thunder, powerful enough to cleave heaven and earth.
The long sword was sharp, its sword light continuous, stirring up the vast sky.
Clang!
In a flash, the terrifying power contained in the blade and sword burst out. Heaven and earth exploded with deafening roars, and at the center of the collision, the void rippled open, with mountains underneath crumbling into countless flying debris.
At this moment, both parties unleashed strength far surpassing their own realms, definitely not comparable to any ordinary practitioner at the fifth level of the Unity Realm.
“Boom!”
The terrifying energy ground the myriad pieces of debris into fine dust, and the area affected was devastated by powerful sword Qi and the horrifying Thunder Divine Power beyond recognition.
Lu Yun and Wang Xin both felt a terrible impact throughout their bodies as they were sent flying backward by the shockwave.
Wang Xin flew backward hundreds of yards before stepping on the void, causing numerous fissures to appear in the space, nearly collapsing, before he finally steadied himself.
Lu Yun likewise flew back hundreds of yards before barely stabilizing himself, his complexion somewhat pale, seemingly at a disadvantage during the previous exchange.
“Good, being able to confront me head-on, your strength would be enough to rank in the top three of the Green Flame Palace Heavenly Human realm’s hunting list. Killing you might be somewhat of a loss, but for me, defeating enemies is paramount, and combat achievement points are merely incidental,” said Wang Xin, holding his long sword with high fighting spirit and chilling killing intent.
By this point, he was completely convinced that Lu Yun was Liu Yeqing.
There was no name of Liu Yeqing on the Heavenly Human realm hunting list targeted at Green Flame Palace disciples by the True Word Temple.
Unfortunately, he couldn’t possibly imagine that the person before him was not at all Liu Yeqing, but the number one on the Heavenly Human realm hunting list, Lu Yun.
“Hmph, you’re only higher in realm, but I, Liu Yeqing, have never been defeated within the same realm. If our realms were the same, killing you would be as simple as crushing an ant,” proclaimed Lu Yun, standing with his blade, his posture exceedingly arrogant.
“Realm is also a form of strength; only the weak would use realm as an excuse,” Wang Xin said coldly, his killing intent becoming even more intense.
“The Green Flame Palace already has two at the twelfth level of the Heavenly Human Realm; this person must not be spared.”
As numerous thoughts flashed in his mind, Wang Xin immediately made his move. He swung the long sword in his hands, the sword light splitting apart, weaving through time and space, a sword slash tearing through the sky as if it were the vast heaven and earth.
This was one of his powerful swordsmanship divine abilities, Splitting Sky.
One sword could stir the heavens and split the earth.
To maximize attack potential, this swordsmanship divine ability was all offense and no defense.
“Bring it on,” laughed Lu Yun as he returned to Peak State, showing no signs of his earlier pallor.
He burst the air beneath his feet with a step, and the Thunder Divine Power that pervaded the Blood Slaughter Blade began to transform into an even more fearsome Thunder Divine Power.
Ordinary Thunder Power was no match for Divine Power.
And Thunder Divine Power, forged from the fusion of two Divine Powers, was not only more domineering but also had greater attack strength.
Lu Yun charged out, his Blood Slaughter Blade fully transformed into a Thunder Knife, turning into a fearsome thunderbolt, like a true dragon emerging from the sea, directly slashing towards Wang Xin.
Boom!
This collision was a full-strength encounter between the two, with neither of them defending and both attacking with all their might, solely to take down each other.
In midair, the intersecting sword lights were beautiful enough to move one’s soul, demonstrating the swordsmanship divine ability that could disrupt the elements and split heaven and earth with no holds barred.
But the blade aura of the Thunder Knife was even more horrifying, far surpassing the sword radiance in both speed and power.
The two sides only stood opposed for a moment before the sword light was mercilessly torn apart, and the weighty blade imbued with terrifying power landed heavily on the ultimate spirit weapon in Wang Xin’s hands. The blade aura condensing Thunder Divine Power poured down, and Wang Xin was cleaved from the sky, crashing heavily onto the ground.
A single blow had not killed the opponent, which slightly surprised Lu Yun, but he did not hesitate and dived down, his exceptional and fearsome Thunder Blade Aura mercilessly striking down.
This blade aura rampaged wildly, its tyrannical force reaching the extreme, its destructive breath sweeping through the surroundings. Even before landing, the mountain below was shredded to smithereens.
And Wang Xin, who bore the brunt of it, was in even more miserable straits. Having barely blocked that first strike, facing an even more terrifying blow, his eyes filled with despair.
In the end, all his despair turned into frustration and resentment.
“He who slays me, Liu Yeqing!”
This message, transmitted through a special secret technique, was sent out by him.
