Chapter 395: Chapter 392: The Art of the Whirlwind

Crack, crack!

After the cracks appeared, they rapidly spread, and in the midst of many shocked gazes, the Demon Essence Armor in front of the Demon Dragon Venerable split apart violently.

Pfft!

As the armor fissured, the Demon Dragon Venerable spat blood and was sent flying backward, his eyes full of shock and incomprehension. A sword mark appeared on his chest, tearing through his defenses, skin split and flesh burst open, with blood dripping copiously.

The Demon Essence Armor he was so reliant on had actually been breached by Ye Xuan head-on!

"The Demon Dragon Venerable has actually been defeated!"

At this moment, Sky Demon Mountain had become exceptionally lively, not only had all the people of Sky Demon Mountain gathered, but other powers and mighty individuals had also arrived just in time to witness the Demon Dragon Venerable being injured by a single sword strike.

Others present also found it unbelievable that the armor, condensed out of the Demon Dragon Venerable’s own Demon Essence Power, which was almost invincible, could be broken so easily by Ye Xuan who had merely switched from wielding a single sword to a dual-handed sword, increasing its power so dramatically.

What they didn’t know was that this was not a typical dual-handed sword wielded by Ye Xuan, but rather a Dual Sword Flow technique, far beyond the level of a mere dual-handed sword.

Had Ye Xuan not had some aces up his sleeve, he wouldn’t have dared to face off against this Demon Dragon Venerable alone. He wouldn’t engage in anything without certainty of success.

"This is impossible!"

The Demon Dragon Venerable clutched the sword wound on his chest, still somewhat in disbelief that his defense had been penetrated and sliced open by Ye Xuan.

And before this, he thought he was completely unharmed, not only did he believe this, but so did everyone else...

But the truth was not as they presumed.

"How wonderful are the vagaries of this world; just a moment ago, you thought of me as a mere ant, and now, you’re about to fall at my hand."

Ye Xuan held his dual swords, his gaze sharp as the blades. Thanks to the effect of the Netherworld Demon Blood Hidden Skill, his presence was now incredibly robust. He hadn’t been capable of using the Dragon Abyss Ancient Sword in his hands so recklessly before, but now he could unleash combination attacks without any issue whatsoever.

The only downside would be the subsequent weakness in his body once the effect of the Secret Technique ended. After all, the Netherworld Demon Blood Hidden Skill was an evil technique that stimulated the body’s potential by sacrificing some of the essence blood as an offering, demanding a certain toll.

However, in order to defeat the Demon Dragon Venerable, Ye Xuan had no choice but to disregard the cost, besides, after the battle concluded, he could naturally recover by taking some Pills and treasures that nourished the body.

"How ludicrous, do you really think that I, a First Grade Demon Venerable, am so easy to deal with? Little beast, I didn’t expect a mere oversight back then to leave behind such a calamity as you. Today, I shall completely erase you from this world!"

A ferocious glint suddenly flashed across the eyes of the Demon Dragon Venerable as he extended his forefinger and drew a six-pointed star pattern with his sharp nail across the palm of his left hand, bloodlines following his movements. As he continuously performed hand seals, the star pattern also lit up quickly.

As the pattern suddenly brightened, the aura emanating from the Demon Dragon Venerable violently surged. His formidable Demon Essence Power roared up as if forming a hundred-zhang tall, monstrous dragon on his body. This dragon shadow, with its decaying dragon scales and exposed ghastly bones in certain areas, had giant crimson eyes like bronze bells, fixating on Ye Xuan with a terrifying intent to kill.

"Does the Demon Dragon Venerable still have a move up his sleeve?"

Shocked expressions appeared on the faces of Yu Yi and Little Xi, their hearts tightening; the battle was fraught with peril, and they had no assurance whether Ye Xuan could win. Should he lose, death was the only path awaiting him.

"I just knew it; as the Supreme of our Sky Demon Mountain, the Demon Dragon Venerable wouldn’t have just this much strength." A smile emerged on the face of Young Master Blood Python. The tide of the battle had varied so much; when the Demon Dragon Venerable was wounded by that sword strike, he almost felt as though the sky was falling.

Thankfully, the Demon Dragon Venerable had finally used his last technique. After all, in his view, Ye Xuan was just a mediocre individual, an ant. When he first arrived, he wasn’t even a match for him and yet, he had gradually climbed over his head, even killing Long Guihai as if squashing an ant. If Ye Xuan were to defeat the Demon Dragon Venerable, what would become of them then? Wouldn’t they be at Ye Xuan’s mercy?

His worries were actually unnecessary, as Ye Xuan had no intention of making a move against him. This wasn’t to say that Ye Xuan didn’t detest him, but rather that he deemed him unworthy.

"You little beast, pay with your life for my son’s death!"

The moment the image of the vile dragon was successfully conjured, the Demon Dragon Venerable suddenly roared out. The instant his hand struck down, the hundred-zhang vile dragon, carrying an extremely ferocious aura, seemed to forcibly extract more than half of his strength from within him. Then, it shot towards Ye Xuan at breakneck speed, the dragon’s cry shaking heaven and earth.

Once the hundred-zhang vile dragon was deployed, its presence nearly filled half the sky. Even those engaged in fierce battle, such as Ao Tian and Su Ying, couldn’t help but glance over, startled by the attacking move unleashed by the Demon Dragon Venerable.

"I didn’t expect that after more than ten years, this Demon Dragon Venerable has also changed beyond recognition. I wonder if Xuaner can withstand this blow."

Su Ying couldn’t help but worry for Ye Xuan. She didn’t want to suffer the pain of losing her son just after recognizing each other. Now that she had finally come out, she naturally wanted to spend quality time with Ye Xuan. She didn’t want anything to happen to him.

If it really came down to it, she had to use her secret skill, even if her current body probably couldn’t hold on for much longer. But for Ye Xuan’s sake, she was prepared to fight.

"Don’t do anything unnecessary. That kid, look at his expression. Does he seem the slightest bit afraid?"

Just as Su Ying was about to perform a forbidden technique, Ao Tian’s voice suddenly reached her ears. Though he was still engaged in battle, the message had clearly been transmitted by him.

Hearing this, Su Ying looked at Ye Xuan, and indeed, just as Ao Tian had said, not a trace of fear could be seen on Ye Xuan’s face. There wasn’t even a hint of nervousness; he appeared utterly composed. With dual swords in hand, his demeanor was as fiercely dominant as ever.

Faced with the vile dragon that was roaring towards him, Ye Xuan’s expression was solemn. He raised both hands, grasping his dual swords, and extended them outwards to each side. Suddenly, a sharp glint flashed in his eyes and he shouted loudly, "Dual Sword Flow, Tornado Technique!"

As soon as he finished speaking, Ye Xuan’s body immediately sprang into action. With this move, the dual swords danced together, spinning rapidly in the air, transforming him into a whirlwind. Wherever he passed, a vacuum was created, air torn to shreds, turned into countless air currents shooting out in all directions.

The tornado grew larger and larger, eventually swelling to a colossal hundred zhang. It was like a storm was approaching, but everyone knew that this was no ordinary storm. It was a powerful Sword Qi storm created by Ye Xuan wielding his dual swords. Anyone caught in this storm would be instantly torn to pieces.

Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom!

Under the gaze of many shocked eyes, the hundred-zhang tornado collided with the hundred-zhang vile dragon image in an extremely fierce manner. The impact made a sound as if heaven and earth were splitting apart. The two forces intertwined and ground against each other, leaving the ground below destroyed and riddled with holes.

Compared to the other battles, this one had become the most brutal.

Because Ao Tian’s full strength had not yet been restored, he was initially trying to suppress the two Supreme Elders from Sky Demon Mountain and take them down one by one, hoping to kill at least one of them. However, things were not as simple as he thought. The two Supreme Elders had been in seclusion for many years and had not been stagnant in their strength. Ao Tian was now only just managing to fend off both, with most of his moves being defensive.

As for Su Ying, her situation was somewhat similar. Moreover, she had no grudge against the Sky Fox Demon Venerable. The affairs of the past were actually internal matters of the Demon Dragon Clan. As for the Sky Fox Demon Venerable, although she was affiliated with Sky Demon Mountain, she was from the Fox Clan and naturally could not intervene in the Demon Dragon Clan’s affairs.

Ye Xuan and the Demon Dragon Venerable, however, had a feud not just over the murder of their respective families, but the latter had also made multiple attempts on Ye Xuan’s life. It was a blood feud that could end only in death. Ye Xuan had killed Long Guihai, which for the Demon Dragon Venerable, meant avenging the death of his son, and was absolutely irreconcilable. One of them had to die in their confrontation.

"Is this destruction caused by human force?"

As the ground continued to collapse and crack, onlookers couldn’t help but swallow hard. Demon Venerables were extremely rare in the Demon Beast Territory, and many people present had never witnessed a battle between Demon Venerable powerhouses. They did not realize that even a First Grade Demon Venerable could cause such ferocious destruction.

Although Ye Xuan’s cultivation had not yet reached the level of a First Grade Demon Venerable, his strength had. This was no longer doubted by anyone present.

Even if Ye Xuan relied on the power of a secret technique, some in the crowd also possessed secret techniques, but they did not believe that by using them, one could bridge several stages and contend with the Demon Dragon Venerable.

Secret techniques might be strong, but they are not against nature. The reason why Ye Xuan could unleash such powerful combat strength with the Netherworld Demon Blood Hidden Skill was not because the technique itself was astonishingly strong or against nature. Secret techniques, even the Heavenly Grade ones, were limited. The key lay in Ye Xuan’s potential; his potential was so strong that the combat power he could unleash would reach an even higher level.

Besides, only a person with the realm of a Fifth Grade Demon King, daring to battle the Demon Dragon Venerable, could be considered a foolhardy dreamer, ignorant of life and death. Of course, Ye Xuan was not included in this category. To many people now, Ye Xuan was no longer human, but a monster. Only a monster can completely defy logic and do things that go against the natural order.
