Evil Venerable of the Sword Dao
Chapter 246 - 126: Suppression of Li Cangsheng!

Chapter 246: Chapter 126: Suppression of Li Cangsheng!

The woman in white, who had originally thought Zhou Yan wouldn’t ask about this matter, was taken aback when Zhou Yan immediately asked directly, causing her to feel slightly embarrassed.

However, she quickly concealed that emotion. After pondering for a moment, she then said, "This time, there is a matter that requires the presence of the world’s most valiant individuals, which is why they have also been invited.

As for the presence of the Zhou Family here, it is merely because the Zhou Family has always had a good relationship with our Holy Land. Naturally, we cannot stand by idly when the Zhou Family faces the calamity of extinction.

I hope Zhou Lingzhe can be understanding about this."

The woman in white, while speaking, slightly bowed to Zhou Yan as a salute to show her sincerity.

Zhou Yan was moved internally. Indeed, this woman could handle matters with grace. It wasn’t just her unfathomably powerful strength, but even her position as the Snow Domain Lord of the Heavenly Mountain Prefecture branch, that could make one feel the breadth and magnitude of her spirit just from this gesture.

Without any change in his expression, Zhou Yan nodded and said, "If that’s the case, then let’s put this matter aside for now. However, I’m curious as to why, with so many geniuses who are unable to resolve the situation, you feel the need to invite me, whom you all consider a useless person unable to form a Sword Soul. Isn’t this a slap in the face to those geniuses?"

Zhou Yan’s words carried a hint of sarcasm.

"Little bastard, inviting you is an honor; don’t get smart or you’ll get yourself killed!"

Before the woman in white could respond, Li Cangsheng had already spoken out sharply in rebuke.

Zhou Yan’s gaze suddenly sharpened, his eyes gleaming like tangible swords, fiercely shooting out and landing on Li Cangsheng’s face.

Li Cangsheng’s body shuddered, but he did not retreat half a step, coldly saying, "Little bastard, what’s it going to be? You think to use the overwhelming force of the Sword Spirit Illusion Realm’s destruction to suppress me? You do have strong combat power, but with your body currently collapsing, can you actually make a move? There are so many geniuses here beyond your imagination. If you make a move today, you’re sure to fall, and no one can save you!"

Li Cangsheng was very disdainful, and despite his concerns about facing Zhou Yan, he remained harsh in tone and arrogant in demeanor.

"Is that so? My body may be collapsing, but killing you would be as easy as crushing an ant! As long as I haven’t gathered a Sword Soul and am not yet dead, it’s not your turn to act arrogantly!"

Zhou Yan scoffed repeatedly. As he spoke, he suddenly intensified a powerful Sword Spirit, and a cyan Dragon Sword Spirit suddenly emerged and violently suppressed Li Cangsheng.

In that instant, the heavens and earth were obscured. The cyan Dragon Sword Spirit’s claws materialized a terrifying Xingyi Dragon Form Fist Intent.

Fist Intent was Sword Intent, and Sword Intent was Fist Intent too.

This punch, bursting through the void with colors of dawn, erupted with a relentless destructive energy that nature itself seemed unable to suppress.

This punch from the Sword Spirit shattered this piece of the void, striking Li Cangsheng with unimaginable speed.

"You’re seeking death!"

Li Cangsheng roared, his body’s blood energy bursting forth. His hair, previously bound up, now flowed freely and wildly in response to the wind.

He too unleashed a Sword Spirit which in an instant had derived into a Sword Soul, stirring a great movement in the clouds.

This Sword Soul collided fiercely with Zhou Yan’s Dragon Sword Spirit.

At that moment, time seemed to halt, and everyone involuntarily held their breath.

After that momentary stillness erupted a chaotic tempest akin to a colossal tsunami, the endless chaotic energy exploding and nearly instantly killing everyone present.

However, in that moment the energy appeared, the woman in white in a swift motion cast a glow, enveloping this part of the world under that glow, containing the chaotic energy within its scope.

Even though they already knew Zhou Yan’s strength was exceedingly formidable, everyone present was once again shocked by such a terrifying move.

Many people, including those currently opposing Zhou Yan like Yang Qingtan and others, watched this scene with an undisguised astonishment.

They couldn’t comprehend how Zhou Yan, at the brink of death, still possessed such powerful attack capability!

Particularly Yang Qingtan, because he had said Zhou Yan’s inheritance wasn’t up to the family’s hopes or his master’s legacy.

But now, the Sword Spirit unleashed by Zhou Yan completely shook his core!

His body trembled at the moment, also erupting with endless battle intent.

But the very next moment, it was as if he had fallen into an icy chasm, his body enveloped in a sheer cold.

That’s because in that moment of conflict, the incredibly strong Li Cangsheng’s body suddenly began showing cracks, and his Spirit Armor started to shatter like a statue.

"Kneel down!"

Zhou Yan bellowed. After an attack from the Sword Spirit was not fully executed, another Sword Intent was unleashed, deriving into a White Tiger soaring through the heavens and earth.

This White Tiger, like a colossal elephant, appeared stomping through the heavens and earth, the colors of the sky shifted, and the rumbling thunder clouds, its presence utterly terrifying.

But this scene all happened in a mere instant, after the White Tiger appeared, it suddenly reached Li Cangsheng’s side and bit towards his head.

Li Cangsheng’s face showed extreme horror, but he suddenly clenched his teeth and unleashed a terrifying black light.

This black light, like the Contempt for All Living Beings Swordsmanship, made its appearance with an aura that seemed to pierce through heaven and earth.

But as soon as this Sword Intent appeared, Zhou Yan immediately activated the Purple Flame Void, revealing a terrifying black hole akin to Tai Chi, which devoured the energy of this Sword Intent into the Purple Flame Void.

Finally, with a shift of his Spiritual Sense, he entered the Purple Flame Void and, like a Divine being, suppressed and sealed this Sword Dao Sword Intent.

If it had been any other attack, Zhou Yan might not have been able to use the Purple Flame Void to devour the attack’s energy, but he totally understood the Contempt for All Living Beings Swordsmanship.

He had undergone multiple Enlightenments and had essentially grasped the Sword Dao of that powerful figure from the Spiritual Lotus Secret Realm, naturally allowing him to accept it easily!

Although this Sword Intent was extremely terrifying and even had a presence similar to his own Master’s Fist Intent he had once displayed, Zhou Yan still effortlessly intercepted it.

However, after he did so, everyone showed an inexplicable expression of disappointment and melancholy, as if it would have been better if he couldn’t intercept this move.

And yet, his interception meant a certain sorrow.

Zhou Yan had no thoughts, despite sensing all these, despite many people showing desperate and disappointed looks, he remained indifferent.

When Li Cangsheng no longer had the Sword Intent to resist and couldn’t defend himself, only instinctively raising his sword at his head while the White Tiger bit down hard on the sword, the enormous pressure snapped Li Cangsheng’s legs with a "crack crack".

At that moment, Li Cangsheng suddenly couldn’t bear it, and knelt on the ground.

His legs were shattered at the knees, and he knelt right in front of Zhou Yan.

Then, the Spatial Energy Zhou Yan mobilized suppressed the upheaval of the surrounding Spiritual Energy and also Li Cangsheng’s actions.

At this point, Li Cangsheng was completely defeated.

"Zhou Yan, you truly are the heir to the Evil King; originally, it would have been fine if you hadn’t taught the Zhou Family people your Contempt for All Living Beings Sword Dao and just kept it to yourself. Even if we knew, it wouldn’t matter.

But you had to pass it on, thereby confirming your identity, how can you continue to live?"

Unexpectedly, Li Cangsheng said these words with a cold expression.

"Evil King? Inheritance?"

Zhou Yan’s mind stirred, but he didn’t show any reaction.

He just coldly looked at Li Cangsheng, saying, "Nothing you say can change the fact that in front of me, you are as insignificant as an ant. But don’t worry, I won’t kill you today, because killing you would only grant you relief."

"Really? I, Li Cangsheng, have never been someone who’s afraid of death. Otherwise, I wouldn’t have made an enemy by offending the coming Evil King.

I’ve always said to watch out for the people of the Zhou Family, but Li Yunjin that vile woman didn’t believe it. Now that it has come to this, just wait for the destruction of the world!"

Li Cangsheng said bitterly and somewhat disinterestedly.

Even if he succeeded, he might be proud, but now, being suppressed here like an ant with no power to counter, he showed no fear, only a sentiment of desolation.

Zhou Yan fell silent for a moment and sighed, "I don’t wish to say much anymore. For life and death, you seem indifferent, and I, Zhou Yan, have seen through it too.

If you think all hope is lost, then tell me, where did I, Zhou Yan, wrong you all? What made you all desperately plot against and betray me?"

After Zhou Yan spoke, the area fell into silence.

Only Li Cangsheng started laughing madly, without any regard.

He sneered, with an ironic tone, "Plot against you? Betray you? Zhou Yan, you’re too self-centered. Have you never considered that it was you who plotted against us, betrayed us?

To gather the Emperor Qi Sword Body, for a woman, Jiang Yuning, you even abandoned your own Tao and offered your soul to the Evil King, becoming a puppet, a Ding Furnace!

If you succeed, would there still be a world?"

"Zhou Yan, the Sword Burial Ancestor Star is inherently a place of sealing; any cultivator who comes out from there is extraordinarily powerful and extraordinary, which is why all geniuses must go there.

You knew this, didn’t you? But you definitely wouldn’t speak of it because it involves many of your secrets.

But speaking now is pointless.

Because you are no longer you!"
