Chapter 1055: Chapter 717: Sword Cultivator (2)
Of course, this route has been mapped out, but whether one’s own strength can keep up is another matter, just like you must reach a certain position within a single breath; if your speed isn’t fast enough, an escape route will be of no use.
The Diviner showed Xiang Beifei every evasion path, which was quite useful for him because what he was facing was a Sword Cultivator from the Inquiry Dao Realm!
The gap in strength was massive!
Even if Xiang Beifei could temporarily restrain the opponent’s Dao embryo, it would only slightly bridge the gap between their realms; completely suppressing Xifeng was impossible.
Xiang Beifei took a deep breath, swirling Yin and Yang energy enveloped Wufeng, simulating the severed sword body.
Buzz!
Wufeng vibrated, emanating an ancient and enduring aura.
Meanwhile, Xifeng’s Sword Qi had already thundered toward them, creating a frenzy, churning the surrounding black fog into a dismal chaos, almost suffocating Xiang Beifei.
Xiang Beifei’s eyes glinted with faint light; this strike was almost unbearable for him.
The Diviner’s evasion route provided guidance, but this means of evasion was extremely demanding; even knowing it, he might not be able to follow the route in time.
In his mind, he immediately contemplated the overall situation, and Learn by Analogy helped him continuously deduce the opponent’s Sword Qi. His figure flashed, finding a shred of hope amidst the towering Sword Qi, charging forward, then with a backhand slash, Wufeng transformed into a beam of light attacking the opponent.
However, his Sword Light was still too weak compared to Xifeng’s Sword Qi; the two Sword Qi clashed in the air, and Xiang Beifei’s Sword Qi dissipated like snow melting.
The massive impact instantly blasted Xiang Beifei away, chaotic sword rays scattered everywhere, almost tearing him to pieces again, his clothes ripped, revealing deep wounds down to the bone!
But that very impact accurately pushed Xiang Beifei onto the Diviner’s safe route, avoiding Xifeng’s Sword Intent!
Xifeng’s eyes turned colder; he hadn’t expected Xiang Beifei to evade in the midst of his fierce Sword Qi.
This was an insult to him.
Because the other party’s strength was truly only a late Immortal Realm yet managed to evade him!
Xiang Beifei panted heavily, the damage to his clothes and injuries healing visibly fast.
Xifeng let out a low shout, his sword brilliance intensified!
Swish!
The long sword like a rainbow, tens of thousands of Sword Qi split the air, compressing the void as if freezing it!
Swish! Swish! Swish!
Centered around Xiang Beifei, eight golden Sword Lights abruptly appeared. These eight Sword Lights intersected, forming a Sword Array.
The domain of the sword!
Xifeng’s Sword Dao had already been refined to a transcendent level; anyone brought into his Sword Realm would have to endure the baptism of countless divine swords.
In other words, within his Sword Realm, he was invincible!
Swish! Swish! Swish!
Sword shadows crisscrossed from all directions, leaving Xiang Beifei no path to retreat!
The Wufeng in Xiang Beifei’s hand swung forward, completely merging into the void, disappearing without a trace. He made no moves, merely stepped forward, summoning the Wufeng Sword with his mind, and in an instant, he ignored Xifeng’s Invincible Sword Realm, momentarily appearing outside!
Xifeng’s Invincible Sword Realm originated from the Dao embryo, completely ineffective against Xiang Beifei!
Such a turn of events made Xifeng even more grim; he attacked again, but almost all of his attacks were narrowly avoided by Xiang Beifei, perfectly evading deadly blows, resulting in at most a few additional sword marks on his body, which healed almost instantly.
Xifeng grew increasingly solemn, contemplating Xiang Beifei’s capabilities, and at that moment, recalled something and turned his head to look.
"It’s you!"
Xifeng’s gaze landed on the Diviner outside the battlefield, instantly understanding what was happening.
The Diviner possessed the ability to predict fortune and misfortune, surely aiding Xiang Beifei!
"I originally wanted to spare your life, but now there’s no need!"
Xifeng’s sword edge shifted, the fierce Sword Qi shattered the black fog, slicing toward the Diviner!
The Diviner was startled!
Although he could predict fortune and misfortune, the problem was that his realm was not enough to guide him along that safe route.
But at this moment, the entire void seemed to stagnate, plunging the surroundings into absolute darkness!
Xifeng suddenly lost perception of Xiang Beifei and the Diviner!
He was slightly taken aback internally; although not understanding what had happened, he swiftly slashed tens of thousands of swords toward Xiang Beifei and the Diviner’s direction!
Boom! Boom!
The Sword Light merged into the void, creating terrifying ripples.
Buzz!
The sky brightened again; Xiang Beifei had already led the Diviner out of Xifeng’s Sword Array, appearing at another location!
"Is this all the power your Sword Dao has?" Xiang Beifei inquired.
These words almost enraged Xifeng, being a Sword Cultivator of the Inquiry Dao Realm, looked down upon by someone from the Immortal Realm!
He let out another low shout, his Sword Light rising tens of thousands of feet, his figure vanished into the sword shadow, blasting towards Xiang Beifei’s position!
But the next moment, the sky went dark again!
Xifeng lost perception of Xiang Beifei, yet it didn’t impede his attack; he continued blasting forward!
But just then, Xifeng suddenly felt a strong sense of crisis swell in his heart; it was incredibly abrupt; he immediately realized something was amiss!
Xifeng suddenly realized Xiang Beifei was deliberately leading him!
"Not good!"
Xifeng instantly retreated!
The sky brightened once more.
But a giant sword in the sky suddenly bore down on Xifeng!
Xiang Beifei’s several displacements earlier were all to draw Xifeng into Dayan Jinshou’s attack range, due to the Candle Dragon’s eyes completely blocking perception, Xifeng was momentarily diverted by Xiang Beifei!
"Damn it!"
Xifeng yelled angrily, immediately morphing into Sword Light, dodging Dayan Jinshou’s terrifying Sword Intent, flashing away, but as he responded, he found a sword shadow slashing toward him from an unknown direction!
It was Xiang Beifei!
However, Xifeng reacted swiftly, almost instantly annihilating Xiang Beifei’s attack, but the subsequent Sword Qi from Dayan Jinshou wasn’t so easy to handle, striking his head!
His eyes widened!
This time, he had no way to dodge!
Swish! Swish!
Xiang Beifei flashed again, Sword Intent rolling, striking Xifeng’s soul, then instantly shredding Xifeng’s soul!
Buzz!
Wufeng’s Sword Light carried Xifeng’s soul fragments, casting them towards Dayan Jinshou on Rushou City wall, swallowed up by Dayan Jinshou in a single gulp!
Xifeng initially planned to sacrifice Xiang Beifei to Dayan Jinshou, but unexpectedly, he became the sacrifice!
"Go!"
Xiang Beifei and the Diviner seized the opportunity, crossing Rushou City walls, entering the ruins!
——
"You actually killed a Sword Cultivator from the Inquiry Dao Realm!"
The Diviner exclaimed, looking at Xiang Beifei, truly impressed.
Late Immortal Realm, killing one in the early Inquiry Dao Realm, this was probably unprecedented!
Xiang Beifei did not respond, merely regulating the chaotic energy within himself; the battle earlier had nearly exhausted all his Spiritual Power, the disparity in strength forcing him to strive with everything he had!
Fortunately, he managed to rely on Dayan Jinshou to kill Xifeng!
It’s a pity that Xifeng’s soul could not be retrieved; it was a soul from the Inquiry Dao Realm, if it could be refined into a spiritual power crystal, it could be used to illuminate constellations.
Xiang Beifei surveyed the scene before him; they had already entered Rushou City, before them lay ruins, streets, and houses deeply damaged, not an inch was intact.
He rapidly adjusted his energy, seeking to restore his condition, but before he could fully settle down, the ruins ahead suddenly exploded, a violent spear shadow stabbed toward them!
Dayan Jinshou was not only outside the city; it also existed within!
Ten thousand years ago, invaders used various means to attack this city, now the city absorbed those attacks entirely, returning them to invaders!
