Chapter 262 - 262 261 Both Sides Suffer

262: Chapter 261 Both Sides Suffer 262: Chapter 261 Both Sides Suffer “Shameless?”

Ye Xuan let out a cold laugh and said, “I must say, after having seen Guanghan Fairy’s Linglong Jade Body that day, I have lain awake night after night.

If I had Yang Jian’s cultivation that day, I would certainly have craved a taste of the fairy’s fragrance and felt the wonder of the most beautiful woman in the Three Realms.”

Silence, a deadly silence.

As Ye Xuan’s words fell, the group of immortals was completely stupefied, the Jade Emperor shuddered, his face turning extremely red, while Guanghan Fairy’s Immortal Light was in disarray around her.

Although a light gauze covered her face, preventing anyone from seeing her expression, her eyes, like autumn waters, now brimmed with extreme shame and indignation.

This speech by Ye Xuan, whether intentional or not, exposed the fact that he had seen Guanghan Fairy’s jade body.

Such inconceivable tales left the group of immortals and the Jade Emperor speechless and in shock.

At that moment,

Yang Jian stared intently at Guanghan Fairy, his voice trembling as he said, “Fairy…

Is…

Is what he says true?”

“Ye Xuan, you…

are the most shameless of all!”

Guanghan Fairy had never suffered such humiliation, which caused her eyes to fill with tears as she rode a propitious cloud away from the scene.

However, Guanghan Fairy’s scolding meant nothing to Ye Xuan because, in his eyes, she was nothing more than a tool to be used to its fullest.

“Yang Jian, let me tell you, I have already claimed Guanghan Fairy’s body.”

Ye Xuan’s simple statement not only left Yang Jian speechless but also turned the Jade Emperor and the group of immortals into puppets, as a strange atmosphere spread across the land.

“Now is the moment!”

With his eyes focused, the Heavenly Punishment Halberd radiated a terrible malevolent energy.

He stepped forward, and before Yang Jian could recover from his stupor, the chilling tip of the spear pierced through Yang Jian’s heart.

“Die!”

Holding the Heavenly Punishment Halberd, Ye Xuan let out a fierce and cruel growl as he channeled the last of his strength into the Big Halberd, releasing a terrifying and fierce energy that instantly exploded Yang Jian into a mist of blood.

Indeed, Ye Xuan had spoken all this nonsense merely to catch Yang Jian off guard, to scatter his soul and kill him.

And this was Ye Xuan’s true intent.

There was nothing about being despicable or shameless, only the outcome of victor versus vanquished.

Even with the Heavenly Punishment Halberd in hand, a Luotian Golden Immortal is still a Luotian Golden Immortal.

And even if Yang Jian, grievously injured, could only wield 30% of his power, he was certainly not someone Ye Xuan could withstand.

Everything was over.

Ye Xuan’s body trembled.

He had racked his brains to the utmost, using every last resort in this life-and-death crisis, but in the end, he had managed to survive.

Whether they labeled him despicable and shameless, or accused him of having no conscience, Ye Xuan merely wanted to live, not to become a lost soul under Yang Jian’s blade, nothing more.

“Heaven – Earth – Dharma – Eye!”

Suddenly!

Each word was enunciated with a pause, resonating through heaven and earth.

Before Ye Xuan could recover, a closed Vertical Eye appeared in the Heavenly Vault, causing the Thirty-Three Layered Heaven to violently shake.

“This is bad!”

Witnessing such a sight, the Jade Emperor abruptly came to his senses, as only he knew what was happening.

His face went ashen, his pupils fixed, and without any regard for the group of immortals beside him, he formed the Supreme Immortal Technique with both hands, raising a Heavenly Protection Array in the Thirty-Three Layered Heaven.

“Ye Xuan, I want you to never rest in peace!”

The heavenly vault exploded with a bang, all things crumbled, and Yang Jian’s cold voice echoed between heaven and earth as the vertical eye in the sky slowly opened.

The Heaven and Earth Dharma Eye, Destructive Immortal Light—this was Yang Jian’s innate divine ability, as well as his greatest foundation.

It was also his harrowing and peerless strike.

Legends told by elders spoke of him.

Yang Jian, a product of both human and immortal origins, was bestowed with three eyes at birth, within which resided nine beams of Destructive Immortal Light.

Even Daluo Golden Immortals dared not face it head-on.

Even during the battle for divinity, Yang Jian had never once used his Heaven and Earth Dharma Eye, for with each use of Destructive Immortal Light, his origin would deplete by one layer, forever barring him from the Quasi-Saint Realm.

Today, Ye Xuan had destroyed his physical body and even scattered his Divine Soul, but protected by the Heaven and Earth Dharma Eye, Yang Jian kept a sliver of his True Spirit from extinguishing.

And it was in complete anger that he recklessly unleashed the Destructive Immortal Light, determined to slay Ye Xuan regardless of jeopardizing his own Immortal Dao.

“Break!”

A glimmer of Immortal Light fell from the Heaven and Earth Dharma Eye, twisting all things.

Endless Immortal Island palaces turned to ash, and some immortals who failed to evade in time suffered the aftereffects of the Destructive Immortal Light, their souls scattering in the void between heaven and earth.

At this moment!

Ye Xuan’s face contorted with agony and unwillingness; he could fully sense death encroaching upon him.

Had all his schemes failed, was he still destined to fall to Yang Jian?

The Destructive Immortal Light was terrifyingly formidable, a divine ability granted to Yang Jian by the cosmos; no one could survive its wrath.

Even the Jade Emperor had to stop concealing his cultivation level and activated the Heavenly Protection Array to safeguard the entirety of heaven.

“Thinking of killing me?

You’re still far from capable!”

Ye Xuan roared towards the heavens, his eyes raging and malicious as his hands conjured an unimaginable Immortal Technique.

“Heaven and Earth are Limitless, Qiankun Inverted; with the weapon as the body, and blood as the spirit, haste!”

Phut, phut, phut!

As Ye Xuan executed the forbidden Immortal Technique, blood flowed from his seven orifices.

His entire body erupted in a sky-full of blood mist, frightful and ghastly as a daemon crawling out of hell, dying the Heavenly Punishment Halberd in his hands and enveloping Ye Xuan within a soaring bloodlight.

“Man and Spear Unity!”

With a fierce roar from Ye Xuan, the Immortal Light of Destruction approached his body.

Instantly, the ninety-thousand-li Heavenly River vaporized into endless steam, accompanied by the ear-splitting cacophony of universal annihilation.

The sky was pierced through!

Yang Jian’s Heaven and Earth Dharma Eye wept golden divine blood before gradually fading away into the heavenly vault.

A ripple of his remaining True Spirit emerged, his Primordial Spirit extremely weak and slipping into a coma.

The Howling Celestial Dog whined, taking Yang Jian’s fractured Primordial Spirit in a terrifying beam of Immortal Light and fleeing frantically to the Lower Realm, clearly in dread that other immortals would take advantage of the situation and obliterate Yang Jian’s fragile spirit.

Ye Xuan’s body was a wreck, bereft of all signs of life, uncertain whether he was alive or dead, with only the Heavenly Punishment Halberd orbiting him and carrying a ferocious aura to shield him, as he fell from the Thirty-Three Layered Heaven, descending towards the Lower Realm.

At this time!

The Jade Emperor, upon witnessing this sight, saw flashes of dreadful murderous intent in his eyes.

He had the urge to pursue and annihilate both of them, but the Great Formation was already in effect.

Without his support through Immortal Power, the mere aftereffects of their battle would bring unimaginable catastrophe to Heaven.

Moreover, after considerable deliberation, the Jade Emperor decided against pursuing them.

This was because Yang Jian was a disciple under Yu Ding, as well as the foremost among the third-generation disciples of the Chan Sect.

Should he fail to slay Yang Jian and the Ancient Twelve Golden Immortals discovered this, he too would face an unimaginable calamity.

And Ye Xuan’s Heavenly Punishment Halberd incited extreme fear in the Jade Emperor.

Should this formidable weapon defend its master and unleash an apocalyptic power, he too would face obliteration.

A cataclysmic battle ended with both Ye Xuan and Yang Jian grievously wounded.

But the enmity established between them was set in stone, and their final reckoning—a battle to the death—was inevitable in the future.
