Legend of Swordsman

Ji Ye casually caught it in his hand.

Next up was Fairy Ziyu.

At this moment, Fairy Ziyu, who was fleeing frantically with Jian Wushuang, started to panic. Within the Ji Ye Origin Source, everything around them was engulfed in darkness. Nothing was visible to the naked eye, and even their thought power couldn’t perceive anything.

”No wonder Ji Ye wasn’t worried. He let us run while holding such a trump card!” Despite her fear, Fairy Ziyu didn’t lose her composure.

At this critical moment, she crushed a small green bottle, releasing a green mist that instantly washed over her eyes.

The darkness before her slowly receded.

Sensing the powerful presence approaching from behind, she immediately took out a talisman.

”Freeze!”

Buzz!

Within the Ji Ye Origin Source, time suddenly came to a halt.

Only Fairy Ziyu and Jian Wushuang could move.

”Let’s go!”

Fairy Ziyu grabbed Jian Wushuang, and another talisman appeared in her hand.

”Ten Thousand Miles Teleportation!”

Swoosh!

In a flash, the two vanished, reappearing ten thousand miles away, outside the battlefield. However, they hadn’t completely escaped the Ji Ye Origin Source yet. Despite this, by using the Ziluo furnace to block their aura, the two instantly vanished from any detection.

Fairy Ziyu didn’t dare to relax. After flying tens of thousands of miles at low altitude with Jian Wushuang, she finally dared to stop.

They found a crevice along the shore and hid inside.

As soon as they entered, they sensed a massive disturbance erupting from a distance of ten thousand miles.

”Did the fight break out?” Fairy Ziyu sighed and said, ”I wonder if Daoist Xue Yang will manage to escape safely.”

Jian Wushuang’s thought power had been focused on True Lord Xue Yang the entire time. He knew best whether the latter had a chance to escape.

After he and Fairy Ziyu fled, Ji Ye was deeply shocked. Fairy Ziyu was merely a Fourth-step True Immortal, yet she possessed a talisman capable of freezing space.

And it was done within his own domain.

That talisman was, at the very least, refined by a top-tier Dao Lord.

Recalling Fairy Ziyu’s background, Ji Ye quickly understood-it had to have been crafted by Grandma Yinhua.

Otherwise, Fairy Ziyu couldn’t possibly afford such a precious talisman.

Seeing the two of them escape, Ji Ye didn’t dare be careless any longer. He immediately pursued True Lord Xue Yang.

Though True Lord Xue Yang was incredibly fast, already at the level of an Eighth-step True Immortal, Ji Ye himself was an Eighth-step True Immortal-and one of the top-tier at that. Before long, he caught up with True Lord Xue Yang, expecting to easily capture the Great Immortal.

But to his surprise, just as he caught up with the Great Immortal, Xue Yang took out a terrifying Dao Talisman.

This wasn’t just any talisman-it was a Dao Talisman, containing the attack of a Dao Lord’s might.

True Lord Xue Yang, without hesitation, crushed the Dao Talisman. A wave of violent energy swept through the Ji Ye Origin Source.

In an instant, it shredded the Eighth-step True Immortal to pieces.

The immense power surged in all directions. Even True Immortal Wuhou and the Elder of Heaven’s Remnants were affected. Fortunately, they were far enough away, and the attack was aimed solely at Ji Ye, so neither of them was harmed.

As for True Lord Xue Yang himself, he was protected by a golden light. The power of the Dao Talisman couldn’t harm him in the slightest.

Despite having annihilated Ji Ye, True Lord Xue Yang couldn’t feel any joy.

After sending a message to the Elder of Heaven’s Remnants and True Immortal Wuhou, the three regrouped and left the battlefield together.

Meanwhile, Jian Wushuang and Fairy Ziyu, hidden in the crevice within the distant mountains, were still waiting.

Once Jian Wushuang realized they were safe, he was considering how to remind Fairy Ziyu that they should regroup with the others.

But before he could speak, Fairy Ziyu already knew.

”They escaped. Let’s go find them and regroup!” After Fairy Ziyu finished speaking, she immediately took him away from the hidden crevice.

Jian Wushuang’s heart stirred. He sensed a peculiar presence of thought power, which likely came from the others who shared the same thought power tokens, enabling them to communicate through transmission.

...

At the core of the Twin-Faced God’s mansion stood Twin-Faced Mountain!

Within the majestic hall atop the clouds, nebulae swirled, and a misty Origin Source aura filled

the air.

In the center, a figure sat cross-legged.

No matter from which angle one looked, both sides of the person’s face were visible.

He was the Twin-Faced Buddha.

One side joyful, the other sorrowful.

”The aura of Yang Dingtian?”

The Twin-Faced Buddha, still sitting cross-legged, suddenly opened his eyes. His lips curled into a constant smile-it was his joyful face.

”Why would his aura appear in my domain? Could that fellow be planning to betray the Holy

Land?”

He abruptly rose to his feet, and his thought power instantly reached the Blood River Domain.

Yet the aura vanished.

However, from the lingering traces, he discerned that it wasn’t Yang Dingtian himself who

had acted but the power of a talisman. This realization calmed him.

With a thought, a plump figure walked into the hall from outside.

”Master!” The plump man spoke respectfully.

The Twin-Faced Buddha sat back down cross-legged, lifting his eyelids slightly. He

instructed, ”Go to the Blood River Domain and see what happened.”

”Yes!” The plump man was a bit curious, but he quickly agreed and left the hall.

...

Meanwhile, inside the Blood River Hall.

Sensing the overwhelming aura, Xue He Ancestor immediately stood up. As soon as he stepped out of the hall, he encountered the approaching Qing Lin and Wu Taidou. Once the aura spread, the two of them realized that something had happened to Ji Ye.

”Ancestor!” Qing Lin quickly explained, ”Earlier, Ji Ye mentioned that he had found several outsiders, but their strength didn’t seem that formidable, so he intended to deal with them

alone. But unexpectedly...”

Xue He Ancestor frowned and said coldly, ”Enough! Let’s go see what happened.”

Originally, he had summoned them to discuss this cooperation with the Beast-Taming Sect. Unexpectedly, such an incident occurred on his territory at this time.

Enveloping the two with his aura, his figure flashed, and they arrived at the Asura Field in an

instant.

At that moment, much of the Asura Field had been destroyed.

Nearly ninety percent of the cultivators in the Mahayana stage had perished.

Only a few thousand remained, some of them Nascent Soul stage cultivators who had survived

by sheer luck.

Looking at the shattered sky, even Xue He Ancestor couldn’t help but gasp. Even he would

have been severely injured if he had been hit by that strike. ”What a terrifying aura!” Wu Taidou felt a sense of relief in his heart.

Luckily, they had left earlier. Otherwise, he too might have fallen.

At the same time, he was astonished by who could have caused such a massive disturbance.

Xue He Ancestor held onto a wisp of lingering aura. After carefully probing it with his thought power, he concluded, ”It’s indeed the power of a talisman. It seems that whoever acted is no

ordinary person!”

”Ancestor, you’re saying the person who struck used a talisman?” Qing Lin asked in surprise.

Xue He Ancestor shot him a glance without answering.

If it weren’t for the talisman’s power, would he have come?

Would he have dared to come?

If it hadn’t been a talisman but rather a top-level Dao Lord, would he have dared to

investigate?

Even though it was a talisman, he had come cautiously. If the person hadn’t left and hit him

with another strike, it would have been a disaster.
