Dragon Blood Saint Emperor

Inside the stone chamber.

Just as Ye Wushuang picked up Lan Xinyu’s body, a dark figure once again emerged from the void, striking at him like lightning.

BOOM!

Seeing this, the Xiaoo Yue Celestial Roc waved a hand, and a wave of silver light swept out, piercing through the air and forcing the dark figure back.

Seizing the opportunity, Mengyun Wulei attacked the collapsed entrance, trying to clear the rubble blocking the stone chamber’s main door.

However, it was completely useless. The rocks blocking the door were fortified with a powerful Restriction, making them incredibly hard. It would be impossible to clear them in a short amount of time.

Moreover, the shadowy assassins were everywhere, one with the darkness. The slightest carelessness would result in a fatal attack.

In an instant, Mengyun Wulei retreated to Ye Wushuang’s side and said grimly, ”The door is blocked. It’s going to take some time.”

”Young Master, I’m dragging everyone down!” Lan Xinyu said, a hint of apology on her face. If not for her lack of strength, she wouldn’t have been so grievously injured in a single blow.

”Focus on recovering first!”

Ye Wushuang took out a Treasure Pill and had Lan Xinyu consume it. ’In a moment of crisis, Lan Xinyu was willing to take a blow for me. How could she possibly be a burden!’

”Xiaoo Yue, protect her!” After Lan Xinyu took the Treasure Pill, Ye Wushuang shouted to the Xiaoo Yue Celestial Roc before turning to face the darkness!

’Once I get out of here, you’re dead!’

Thinking of the purple-robed youth’s sneak attack, a cold light flickered in Ye Wushuang’s eyes!

BOOM!

He took a step forward, moving like a flash of lightning.

SWISH! SWISH! SWISH!

The shadowy assassins struck silently from all directions. Their speed was astonishing, their cold blades flashing with lethal intent.

Ye Wushuang’s eyes flashed. Invincible Saber Intent erupted from his body, whipping up a terrifying storm of Saber Intent.

World Destruction!

A World-Destroying Saber Aura tore through the void, extending outward and shredding the nearby shadows. The terrifying attack slammed into the stone walls, which rippled as if they couldn’t withstand such destructive power and instantly began to crumble.

”Go!”

Ye Wushuang shouted, seizing the chance. The other three moved at top speed, rushing toward the newly opened gap.

BOOM!

With a single step, the four of them were once again plunged into darkness. To their alarm, the stone chamber behind them had vanished without a trace, leaving only an endless void.

An endless sense of danger lurked in the night. This lethal aura was even more intense than before.

Ye Wushuang waved a hand, and a cluster of flames appeared in his palm, illuminating the darkness.

But before he could call the others over, the flame in his palm was abruptly suppressed by a mysterious force and extinguished in an instant.

At the same time, countless shadows, like ghosts, swarmed toward Ye Wushuang to kill him.

Shadow Kill!

Ye Wushuang immediately executed Shadow Kill, vanishing from his spot.

BANG!

The spot where he had been standing erupted with a sharp crack as the void itself was pierced.

”Die!”

Ye Wushuang’s figure abruptly emerged from the void. A shower of Life-Taking Sword Light rained down, blanketing the area where he had just stood.

The attacking shadows were annihilated in an instant.

Before Ye Wushuang could even breathe a sigh of relief, more shadows attacked from all sides. They were impossible to guard against, and their speed was constantly increasing.

Meanwhile, Mengyun Wulei’s situation was much the same.

Ye Wushuang frowned. He had the strange feeling that as he continued to slaughter the shadows, their numbers weren’t decreasing but were instead multiplying.

More importantly, the shadows were growing stronger, their speed and Assassination Technique becoming even more terrifying.

Ye Wushuang thought to himself, ’Whatever. I have to find the exit first. If this goes on, we’ll all die here.’

In this boundless darkness, there was a peculiar power that would destroy any sliver of light it detected!

Immersed in darkness, these shadowy assassins were like fish in water—incredibly difficult to deal with.

However, this was a bizarre trap that an ordinary Yin Yang Realm expert could not have set up. He was certain it wasn’t the work of the Blood Feather Tower Master; it had to be someone else.

’Could it be the master of this cave mansion, the Nirvana Great Power?’

’But why would he set things up like this?’

As Ye Wushuang pondered, he wielded a sharp Ancient Sword, continuously slaughtering the shadows.

Shadow Kill!

Life-Taking Sword!

Ye Wushuang repeatedly used these two techniques, not noticing that his sword had become even faster!

SWISH!

SWISH!

In the darkness, Ye Wushuang’s figure would vanish, reappear, and deliver a single, life-taking strike!

He repeated this motion, felling a shadow with every slash.

It was as if Ye Wushuang was the true king of darkness. Every retreat, every reappearance, every strike was executed with such exquisite precision!

Perfect! Absolutely perfect!

Outside the Nirvana Cave Mansion, many people watched the flickering figure on the light screen, mesmerized by his marvelous control, which was precise to the point of perfection.

This perfection moved and shocked them!

Perhaps even they, as Yin Yang Realm experts, could not achieve such a level of perfection!

Of course, the ones who were most shocked were the people from the Blood Feather Tower.

Several dark figures emerged from the void to stare at the light screen. They were assassins, kings of the darkness, yet now they discovered that an outsider was more of an assassin than they were!

Mengyun Pojun watched, a trace of emotion also showing on his face.

However, he quickly suppressed it.

”He... is too terrifying. It seems Xu’er and the others need to make their move soon.” Cai Lun and Di Qiong felt a hint of fear as they watched Ye Wushuang’s figure!

Faster!

Faster still!

In the darkness, the figure flickered, so fast it was dazzling!

The Life-Taking Sword bloomed in the darkness, its Life-Taking Light growing ever more brilliant and dazzling!

The Life-Taking Sword was also a Speed Sword, a sword of certain death. Originally, Ye Wushuang thought he had completely mastered it.

Speed, precision, power—he had thought he’d reached the stage of Great Success in all aspects, with no room left for improvement.

But now he realized that everything he had previously thought was wrong.

His speed was fast, but it hadn’t reached its absolute limit!

His power was strong, but it wasn’t yet unstoppable!

His precision was good enough, but he still couldn’t guarantee a one-hit kill!

There was still great potential to be unearthed in the Life-Taking Sword. Perhaps even the creator of the ”Mad Demon Three Swords” had never discovered this.

But now, in this boundless darkness, Ye Wushuang had.

”The Life-Taking Sword needs a major breakthrough. Perhaps this place is both a crisis and an opportunity for me!”

Ye Wushuang murmured as his sword struck out once more, its edge like a flash of light!

In the darkness, this sliver of light danced. One sword, one life. The sword killed, the light took life!

”Too slow, too slow!”

Lost in the trance of the Life-Taking Sword, Ye Wushuang urged them on.

Far to the side, Mengyun Wulei turned to look, her eyes freezing in disbelief. ’He... he’s complaining that the shadowy assassins are too slow!’

It was as if it wasn’t the shadowy assassins attacking Ye Wushuang, but him attacking them.

’Was he also born an assassin?’ Mengyun Wulei couldn’t help but wonder. It was the only way to explain what she was seeing.

”Faster, faster!”

Ye Wushuang murmured again, seemingly delighted. As if granting his wish, the shadows’ speed kept increasing until they were almost impossible to track!

Each assassination attempt took place in a fleeting instant, incredibly brief!

Mengyun Wulei could feel that if she were in his position, she would be completely unable to block such an attack in that instant, let alone counter-kill.

Without a doubt, Ye Wushuang was gambling with death itself!
