Supreme Warrior in the City

Chapter 374: Chapter 373 The Power of the Divine Sovereign

Su Yang extended his hand and flicked the Nine Cold Jade Sword lightly; the sword whistled out and collided directly with the sabre screen.

With a clang, the Nine Cold Jade Sword was flicked back. But Su Yang remained calm and unhurried, flicking his finger again, and the sword flew out once more.

The sound of ice blades colliding rang out as the Nine Cold Jade Sword struck the Thick-Backed Sabre countless times, but it could not break through the sabre screen. However, the screen made by the Thick-Backed Sabre was stretched tight and could no longer contract.

Ghost Blade Mo Qianli’s face was full of surprise, ”Another Superior Magical Artifact? You still have quite a few treasures on you, heh heh heh, it seems that I’m going to strike it rich this time!”

”I’m afraid you’ll leave your life here instead!”

Su Yang shouted coldly and suddenly exhaled a breath. When the Nine Cold Jade Sword was flicked back, Su Yang did not flick it out again, but instead brought his hands together. The sword stopped and hovered a foot in front of his hands, as Devouring the Heavens rapidly absorbed the power from within the Nine Cold Jade Sword.

Ghost Blade Mo Qianli did not know what Su Yang was up to but his intuition told him that Su Yang was definitely brewing a major move. So he dared not hesitate at all and quickly contracted the sabre screen, attempting to directly grind Su Yang to pieces.

The sabre screen shrank rapidly and seemed about to fall upon Su Yang when his hands finally parted. He casually waved his hand, and the Nine Cold Jade Sword flew out again. This time, the sword did not collide with the sabre screen, but instead swiftly danced around Su Yang, forming a sword screen that perfectly matched the sabre screen.

Moreover, most crucially, once the sword screen formed, a layer of thin ice appeared along with it. Su Yang was enveloped in this thin ice, while the Nine Cold Jade Sword swiftly danced within it, like a small dragon moving through the ice.

Ghost Blade Mo Qianli was astonished, but by then his sabre screen had already pressed down. Confident in his strength, he did not hesitate and slammed the sabre screen heavily onto the thin ice.

With a thunderous crash, the thin ice shattered, but the sabre screen froze in an instant.

Ghost Blade Mo Qianli felt an intense chill rush up through the Thick-Backed Sabre into his hands. He hastily tried to counteract it with his own energy, but it was too late; the chill moved along his meridians and in the blink of an eye entered his body, freezing all his meridians and sealing his strength in that instant.

Mo Qianli was extremely shocked in this moment. As someone at the Venerable Realm, and among the exceptional ones at that, how could his strength be frozen so easily by someone from the Fusion Realm?

And this freezing sealed all the strength in his body. No matter how powerful he was, at this moment, he was like a lamb to the slaughter, utterly unable to exert a shred of his power. If Su Yang struck back now, Mo Qianli’s life would be forfeited right here.

But Mo Qianli did not know that using this move had also drained Su Yang of a tremendous amount of strength. To freeze Ghost Blade Mo Qianli required an immensely powerful force. Su Yang had used Devouring the Heavens to draw out the power from the Nine Cold Jade Sword, but he had also borne a great toll from it, nearly depleting seventy percent of his strength.

Taking a deep breath, Su Yang used the Nine Cold Jade Sword to shatter Mo Qianli’s Heaven-Slashing Sabre Screen. Looking at Mo Qianli before him, Su Yang did not hesitate; the Nine Cold Jade Sword directly soared into the air and thrust towards Mo Qianli’s forehead.

Mo Qianli’s face changed drastically, but with all his strength frozen, he was utterly unable to resist.

Of course, with Mo Qianli’s strength, he could break free from the ice, but that would take time. At this moment, it was something he simply could not do.

Just as the Nine Cold Jade Sword was about to pierce Mo Qianli’s forehead, suddenly, a burst of red light exploded from him, flicking the Nine Cold Jade Sword back.

Within the red glow, a majestic figure nine feet tall appeared. He stood with his hands behind his back, his eyes holding a commanding presence as if there was no one in the world who could catch his eye.

At this moment, the frozen power within Mo Qianli also began to thaw rapidly.

”Immortal... Divine Sovereign!” Mo Qianli exulted: ”It’s the Protective Jade Talisman the Divine Sovereign gave me, hahaha, Su Yang, you’re dead for sure! You’re dead for sure!”

Su Yang’s expression also instantly turned cold. He could tell that this majestic man was not real, but a manifestation of power. However, to achieve even this, one had to be at least in the Realm of Terrestrial Immortals.

Such Terrestrial Immortals were simply beyond Su Yang’s ability to contend with. Even if it was just a surge of power, it was enough to annihilate Su Yang!

Without any hesitation, Su Yang quickly retreated, positioning himself in front of Ye Wantong, chanting urgently, ”Om Mani Padme Hum!”

With each chant, Su Yang’s body grew taller. Chanting at an extremely fast rate, in the blink of an eye, he had doubled in height, transforming into a golden giant, shielding Ye Wantong behind him.

At this moment, the majestic man also made his move directly. He didn’t even bother to look, casually swiping a palm toward Su Yang.

Su Yang let out a loud shout, and the golden light quickly gathered in front of him, blocking the palm. Meanwhile, Su Yang also raised his hands, digging into the stone layer above, and with a strong pull, he tore down a piece of stone weighing a thousand pounds.

”Ha!” With a great roar, Su Yang hurled the massive stone at the majestic man.

The majestic man flicked his finger, and the giant stone exploded, but the fragments, like flying swords, rushed in all directions. Even Mo Qianli and the others in the back couldn’t escape injury, being punctured several times by the flying shards.

”Damn it, retreat!” Mo Qianli bellowed urgently, hurriedly running away. If they stayed any longer, they reckoned they would die here before even seeing Su Yang’s demise.

The giant Su Yang was now even more wounded, but he paid no attention, once again grabbing a boulder and smashing it over.

Ye Wantong stood behind, watching the wounds on Su Yang’s body multiply, drenched in blood, almost revealing bone, but she hadn’t stepped back from the beginning, always being protected behind him.

Originally, Ye Wantong’s heart was filled with guilt, and at this moment, it was as if her heart was being wrenched.

”Su Yang, you should run!” Ye Wantong’s voice trembled: ”You can’t beat him!”

Su Yang paid no heed, fighting valiantly bathed in blood, throwing more and more stones, while the flying stone debris around him increased. Eventually, Su Yang’s body was half obscured by it.

Finally, the stone layer above wobbled precariously, unable to hold any longer, it collapsed with a thunderous noise.

The majestic man’s brows furrowed, he lunged forward, looking as if he was preparing to grab Ye Wantong before the collapse of the stone layer.

Su Yang also let out a great roar and lunged forward to grab the majestic man, stubbornly holding him back.

The majestic man furiously struck out with two palms on Su Yang’s body. But Su Yang refused to let go. At that moment, the stone layer finally collapsed completely, and all the giant stones fell from above, enveloping everyone within.

In the end, the majestic man was just a surge of power, and could only exert himself near the Jade Pendant. Now that Mo Qianli had left, and with so many boulders blocking the way, his figure gradually dissipated into nothingness, eventually disappearing without a trace.
