Chapter 152: Chapter 133: Slay Tianrui (Combined Chapter)_2

In that instant,

Shen Weixiu’s body seemed to have lost its substance.

Dao Charm, Elemental Transformation.

Tianyan’s eyes narrowed slightly.

To transform into the element with one’s body, with deep cultivation it is not only possible to transform into thunder but also into the five elements.

Upon seeing this scene, Tianyan uttered one word:

"Instant!"

His figure flashed, quickly retreating backward.

But Shen Weixiu on the ground had no intention of battling this mad woman at all.

Without any hesitation, he transformed into a streak of lightning and raced towards the sky!

"...." Tianyan.

Tianyan’s chest rose and fell imperceptibly, his figure flashed as he pursued rapidly.

...

...

Xu Yuan’s sword blade passed by, and time seemed to freeze.

Bright red blood was splattered in the air, disbelief filling Tianrui’s pale golden pupils.

Xu Yuan held the jade sword,

The trail of the sword, like ink splashed across the sky, tore through Tianrui’s side, nearly cutting his entire body diagonally at the waist, the sliced organs within the wound plainly visible!

After this shocking sword strike, a blood-colored Spiral Bone Drill instantly condensed beside Xu Yuan.

Xu Yuan did not relax in the slightest, his will-spirit opened up, encompassing hundreds of feet around him.

He had already seen Tianyan’s ghostly Life Substitution Technique twice, and although he still did not understand how to disrupt the activation of this secret technique, he had already developed some measures to guard against it.

The moment the corpse disappeared, a very peculiar Origin Qi fluctuation would arise from somewhere, and soon after, the real body of the caster would appear there.

But this time, there was no sign of the Life Substitution Secret Technique activating, and the surrounding Origin Qi was terrifyingly quiet.

What’s going on?

Why hasn’t the Saint Heir of Jiatiange activated the Life Substitution Secret Technique?

In a flash of thought,

The next instant,

The Spiral Bone Drill beside Xu Yuan turned into a streak of blood light and stabbed towards Tianrui’s forehead!

But this bone spur suddenly halted just centimeters away from Tianrui’s forehead,

Then,

An overwhelmingly eerie fluctuation started to emit from all around Tianrui!

Tianrui’s pale golden pupils were devoid of any emotion as they fixed on Xu Yuan.

Dao Charm Secret Technique, Rewind.

Without any warning, Xu Yuan found everything around him starting to reverse.

Everything seemed to be hitting rewind, with the blood that had spilled from Tianrui’s body starting to flow back, the sword marks that were about to fade re-solidified and were gradually erased, the brilliant blood dancing in the air, the blood from the sword’s groove all flowed back into Tianrui’s body, the wounds from the slicing followed, then the clothing, and finally the layer of purple-golden light.

Everything,

Reversed back to half a second ago.

Xu Yuan’s pupils contracted slightly, almost instantly realizing what this was.

This was the "Path" that Tianyan had always emphasized repeatedly.

The chasmic gap between Third Grade and Fourth Grade lay exactly in this.

Without any hesitation, Xu Yuan’s jade sword swept across again.

Ink Sword, Valse.

"Instant."

The ink sword trace slashed through empty air, and Tianrui appeared more than ten feet away from Xu Yuan.

Standing in the void, Tianrui’s golden eyes stared at Xu Yuan, his voice was very cold:

"You... do not match the information."

Xu Yuan sighed softly, holding the jade sword in his hand, repeatedly cursing Tianyan in his mind.

This woman clearly knew what "Path" Tianrui was cultivating, eh, but she just wouldn’t say.

Taking a deep breath, Xu Yuan swung the jade sword in a circle in his hand:

"You’re implying that you were caught off guard by my attack because the sword technique I used does not match my Yang Returning Technique?"

At this, Xu Yuan smiled with a hint of playfulness: "It seems someone has leaked all the information about the younger generation of Qionghua Sect to you, so it’s no wonder Shen Weixiu managed to kill Senior Brother Li and Bai Fan so effortlessly. Tsk tsk... it’s really hard to guard against a thief within the family."

Intelligence is really important,

Just like right now,

If Tianrui had used the Life Substitution Technique, he might actually be dead now.

Not having managed to take out Tianrui in one strike didn’t unsettle Xu Yuan too much.

Because his opponent had a leak of Qi.

Origin Qi was uncontrollably escaping from his body, signifying that the internal meridians were damaged due to excessive instantaneous consumption of Origin Qi.

Third Grade just barely comprehended the Path and could not yet wield it with ease.

If it were against a Second Grade or even a First Grade Tianrui, the object of his Rewind might have been Xu Yuan.

Just imagine,

Charging up a powerful move, then using Dao Charm to rewind you to the instant you were at a specific location and unleashing it.

Receiving the combo without any defenses, just the thought of it sends shivers down one’s spine.

Raising his jade sword to face Tianrui, Xu Yuan said with a light chuckle,

"No matter, let’s see if you, the Saint Heir of Jiatiange, can force me to use my Dao Charm."

Tianrui’s pale golden eyes were extremely solemn:

"You... know two kinds of Dao Charm?"

Huh? What two kinds of Dao Charm?

Unfazed, Xu Yuan replied with a light chuckle,

"Who knows? Why don’t you try and find out?"

"...."

Tianrui didn’t dare to act recklessly and just looked at the man opposite him, taking a long breath:

"Huh... It seems I’ve underestimated your Qionghua Sect."

The intelligence was wrong. Jing He was excessively strong, and without even using his Dao Charm, a single move had severely injured him.

Thinking this, Tianrui’s gaze swept towards the battles in the sky.

Shen Weixiu was being tossed around like a dog that had lost its home.

Things didn’t look good for Shen Weixiu either. It seemed Tianrui now had to think about how to leave...

Xu Yuan didn’t give Tianrui much time to breathe and slowly raised his hand.

As he did, dozens of blood-colored Spiral Bone Drills condensed around him in an instant, their tips flickering with a ghostly cold light.

With a wave of his hand.

The dozens of bone drills instantly turned into blood-colored streaks and sped toward Tianrui!

At this moment, Tianrui dared not take on any of Xu Yuan’s moves directly with his "Divine Shield" Zhen Yan and instantly used the "Instant" Zhen Yan, his figure flickering several meters to the side to dodge.

Seeing this, Xu Yuan outright laughed.

Now familiar with the situation, Tianyan knew that he couldn’t dodge the blood marrow drill. It had to be either countered head-on with Zhen Yans like "Break" or "Slice," or disrupted with Zhen Yans like "Seal" or "Confuse" to sever the connection between the blood marrow drill and Xu Yuan. It had to be taken head-on.

Suddenly pulling back, the dozens of blood marrow drills sharply turned and continued to pursue Tianrui!

Tianrui’s pupils contracted slightly as he uttered a single word.

"Seal!"

"Heh..."

Feeling a slight pause in his Origin Qi, Xu Yuan’s eyes narrowed slightly as he leaned down, holding the jade sword across his chest.

Quick reaction, but unfortunately,

even Tianyan didn’t dare to misuse the "Seal" Zhen Yan against him anymore; before using the "Seal" sword technique, at least the "Instant" Zhen Yan must be retained.

Step Void Slash!

Seeing this, Tianrui’s pupils shrank.

Here it comes again.

Where is it?

Tianrui’s pale golden eyes scanned the surroundings quickly, but to no avail. Just as he was on full alert, Xu Yuan’s figure appeared behind him like a ghost.

"Trap!" spat Tianrui.

Xu Yuan felt a sudden heaviness around him, but with so many practical drills against Tianyan, he already had a countermeasure.

Rejuvenation Technique, Six Yang Force.

A fiery red pattern spread outward from Xu Yuan, instantly breaking free from Tianrui’s "Trap" Zhen Yan.

Ink Sword·Waltz.

Ink-colored sword trails tore through space,

And unlike last time, this time Xu Yuan aimed for the head.

Swish!

Tianrui’s head flew high into the air.

At this moment, Xu Yuan’s body was also running low on Origin Qi, preparing the last blood marrow drill for the opponent’s Life Substitution Secret Technique.

But,

there was no Life Substitution Secret Technique.

The head that Tianrui had just thrown up in the air spewed blood without retracing or vanishing; instead, after tumbling through the air for a few breaths, it plummeted directly into the forest below.

And at that moment,

Xu Yuan faintly sensed a fleeting, mysterious fluctuation of will-spirit.

Because of this subtle will-spirit fluctuation, Xu Yuan remained vigilant in the void for a long time before finally moving towards Tianrui’s severed body as he confirmed the absence of any living aura.

Descending to the ground, where the underbrush was dense, sunlight streamed through the withered treetops into the woods, illuminating the headless corpse lying quietly on the dried branches and leaves, shadowed and still.

Xu Yuan remained fully on guard, not approaching rashly but using the blood marrow drill as a medium to repeatedly confirm that the other party was truly dead before finally approaching the body.

The headless corpse looked gruesomely fresh, which was somewhat nauseating.

Frowning, suppressing the discomfort in his heart, Xu Yuan lopped off the finger bearing the Sumeru Ring with one sword stroke, then ignited it and reduced it to ashes.

Sometimes it’s just like that, one wrong step... and you’re dead.

Having done all this,

Xu Yuan, holding Tianrui’s Sumeru Ring, probed it with his will-spirit.

As the Saint Heir of Jiatiange, there should be considerable information within the ring.

But the first thing that captured his will-spirit,

was a sprout of the Enchanting Divinity Tree radiating waves of will-spirit...
