Soul Emperor Martial God

Chapter 1784: Chapter 1784: I’m Betting My Life

The disciples of Black Cloud Academy, though they uttered the word ’leave’, their expressions were equally complex.

Because this once respected senior brother dared to gamble their lives.

Yet when he thought of his sister, he unhesitatingly abandoned all thoughts of fighting and gambling.

Xiao Yi’s face was originally cold.

But in the end, it turned indifferent.

He once held some respect for this senior brother from Black Cloud Academy.

Today, if Mo Youu had agreed, Xiao Yi wouldn’t have hesitated to join forces with him to challenge this Ancient Emperor’s game.

But Mo Youu’s refusal made Xiao Yi understand that this was Mo Youu.

He should never have had any hope at all.

To him, he would only ever be a stranger on a distant path.

So he didn’t even maintain a cold expression, but simply turned indifferent.

”Mo Youu, you...” Golden Dawn’s expression changed, then turned cold.

He wanted to say something, but realized it was too late, as anything he said now would be useless.

Mo Youu and Black Cloud Academy had already said the word ’leave’.

The Cave Mansion Restriction had already taken effect.

In at most a dozen minutes, they would automatically leave the Ancient Emperor’s Mansion.

At this moment.

Swish... Swish... Swish...

A group of Heavenly Talents from the first-class forces all vanished into thin air from their original positions.

Before, when Xiao Yi’s group entered the Black Cloud Formation, the restraint on these Heavenly Talents by the Five Great Academies had been lifted.

At that time, the group of Heavenly Talents had already shouted the word ’leave’.

However, within the game, the Cave Mansion Restriction outside was extremely ineffective, so it was only now under the Cave Mansion Restriction that they disappeared.

For these Heavenly Talents, not a moment longer did they wish to remain in this dangerous game.

Now, those remaining within the game were only the leaders, along with Heu Youu, Xue Bai, and the Talents from the Eighteen Mansions.

”Phew.” Guu Feifan took a deep breath, shaking his head, ”Let’s go too.”

”Leave.”

Guu Feifan said first, and the disciples of the Academic Palace nodded, able to only say ’leave’.

The disciples of the other Four Great Academies could only shake their heads and also say ’leave’.

Linghu Wang, Golden Dawn and the others, their faces were full of unwillingness and resentment.

But Mo Youu and the group from Black Cloud Academy preparing to leave was an undeniable fact.

Relying solely on the Five Great Academies, it was impossible to break the game.

Thus, they too had no choice but to choose to leave.

On the other side, Lingg Hong gritted his teeth, his face also full of unwillingness, ”Damn it.”

”Alas.” Heu Youu sighed.

”Forget it, Mo Youu and Black Cloud Academy are leaving, the Five Great Academies have also given up.”

”We stand no chance on our own.”

Heu Youu, Xue Bai, the Young Master of Seven Star Mansion, the Young Master of Shaking Star Mansion, and the others all said the word ’leave’.

Lingg Hong, after a brief contemplation, also chose to leave.

Finally, it was Ao Yinfeng, Ye Liu, Ran Qi, First Yun, Zhangsun Chilie, Hua Ruolian, Guu Lianxing, and Gongsun Huowu.

At this moment, Ao Yinfeng glanced a few times at the Purple Lightning Sword Formation, then looked at Xiao Yi, frowning, ”Vice Master Xiao Yi, if I haven’t seen it wrong, within this sword formation of yours, there’s the aura of our Dongli Sword Palace’s Supreme Sword Technique.”

Ao Yinfeng, as Dongli Sword Palace’s top talent, could naturally recognize the essence of the Supreme Sword Technique at a glance.

Indeed, within the Purple Lightning Sword Formation, Xiao Yi had integrated the Sword Qi of the Supreme Sword Technique.

In truth, Purple Lightning was indeed formidable.

But with Xiao Yi’s current cultivation level, it was simply impossible to fully unleash all the power contained within the High Grade Peak Holy Artifact, Purple Lightning.

Of course, no matter how much he could wield, the power of Purple Lightning was under his absolute control.

Previously, when guarding the Sword Dao Giant Gate, he wasn’t idly wasting time.

He was both resisting demon beasts and experimenting with the Supreme Sword Technique.

Why the Supreme Sword Technique bore the word ’Supreme’ was because it could amplify any Sword Dao and Sword techniques.

At that time, he also discovered another feature of the Supreme Sword Technique.

That was the stronger the Sword Dao and Sword Qi, the greater the amplification.

Purple Lightning Sword Qi, without doubt, reached the peak of ferocity, and when combined with the Supreme Sword Technique, the amplification was immense.

Therefore, Xiao Yi previously tried to use ordinary Sword Dao, as well as Star Illusion Swordsmanship and Sword Qi, to test the amplification of the Supreme Sword Technique, but the results were minimal.

Rather, after aligning it with Purple Lightning Sword Qi, Xiao Yi’s comprehension improved greatly, and his gains were significant.

By leveraging the power of thunder and lightning within Purple Lightning, along with the amplification of the Supreme Sword Technique, he could make the Purple Lightning Sword Formation resist the tide of demon beasts.

Not even Mo Youu’s two Supreme 9999 Dao puppets could endure long within it.

At this moment, listening to Ao Yinfeng’s words, Xiao Yi nodded and said, ”Indeed.”

”My Brother Yi doesn’t practice Sword Dao, so he handed the Supreme Sword Technique to me.”

”I practiced it, and the results aren’t bad.”

Ao Yinfeng still frowned, ”Originally, in the Sword Domain, you killed our Sword Palace disciples, and you and I were bitter enemies.”

”However, Vice Hall Master Yi Xiao and Dongli Sword Palace, as well as the Palace Master, have a deep friendship.”

”In light of this, the grievances between Vice Master Xiao Yi and Dongli Sword Palace are settled.”

Ao Yinfeng said this, cupping his hands.

”Hmph.” Gongsun Huowu snorted coldly.

”It sounds good, given the name of the twins today, does your Dongli Sword Palace dare to speak of enmity?”

”With your strength, what can you do to Xiao Yi?”

Guu Lianxing chuckled, ”As far as I know, back in the Sword Domain, your Dongli Sword Palace disciples planned to seize the Sword Emperor Origin and joined forces with all the Sword Cultivators against Young Master Xiao Yi.”

”This forced Young Master Xiao Yi to a killing spree.”

Ao Yinfeng frowned, ”Even I am aware of this, hence my reconciliation with Vice Master Xiao Yi.”

”Otherwise, if Vice Master Xiao Yi had deliberately harmed our Sword Palace disciples, no matter his identity, I, Ao Yinfeng, would not have let it go.”

”Enough.” Xiao Yi shook his head lightly, his tone indifferent.

In fact, there was nothing much to say.

The Sword Palace disciples back then were blinded by greed, willing to kill for their chance at fortune; they were forced to learn the cost.

Xiao Yi killing them was, quite naturally, justified.

And towards Dongli Sword Palace, Xiao Yi held no grudge.

After all, each case is its own matter.

”Anyway.” Ao Yinfeng cupped his hands, ”I am grateful to Vice Master Xiao Yi for protecting us so that I, Yinfeng, might leave this game alive.”

”Thank you.”

Ao Yinfeng expressed his gratitude.

Xiao Yi nodded, saying nothing.

This time, everyone had voiced the word ’leave’.

However, everyone noticed that there was one person who had not spoken.

It was Xiao Yi.

”Brother Xiao Yi, don’t you plan to leave?” Ye Liu was the first to react.

”You haven’t said the word?” Ran Qi was slightly taken aback.

”Xiao Yi, you...” First Yun and others looked surprised.

”Junior Brother Xiao Yi.” Mo Youu frowned.

”Xiao Yi, don’t act recklessly.” Qing Lin and Tong Ye’s group looked seriously at Xiao Yi.

”Heh.” Xiao Yi chuckled faintly, ”I’m not leaving for now.”

”I wish to gamble with my life.”
