The Sword God of the Universe

Chapter 1082: Chapter 1092: Regret Beyond Reach

Su Fu withdrew from the battlefield but did not leave completely, instead watching from a distance.

At this moment, Jing Yan and Xiao Tian had already clashed.

Xiao Tian is a Martial Artist at the True God Level, and his combat power is indeed strong. This battle with Xiao Tian marked the first time Jing Yan, who had trained thus far, faced an opponent at the True God Level.

However, Jing Yan, who was already at the Nine-star Void God Peak Realm, was slightly inferior in realm compared to a True God, but his combat power was not less than those of Low-level True Gods!

”Boom!”

Sword Light collided with shadow of the staff, causing the space to tremble. The surging Divine Power swept through everything in the surrounding space like a dragon whirlwind.

If this were in a Low-class World, such a battle would surely break through its spatial barriers, potentially causing the whole Low-class World to collapse completely. But in this God Realm, the spatial barriers are exceptionally tough and heavy; even for battles at the level of Jing Yan and Xiao Tian, they only result in slight cracks in the trembling space.

”This bastard, his strength is indeed formidable!” Xiao Tian’s expression was solemn, as he fully mobilized the Divine Power within his abdominal Dao Palace.

The Purple Mansion of a Void God Warrior transforms into a magnificent Dao Palace upon entering the True God Realm.

As Xiao Tian marveled at Jing Yan’s strength, the next Sword Light from Jing Yan was already rushing toward him.

”Hmph, no matter how strong you are, you’re not a True God. Let’s see if your Purple Mansion Divine Power outmatches my Dao Palace Divine Power.” Xiao Tian gritted his teeth, his heart determined.

When the Purple Mansion transforms into a massive Dao Palace, it can contain more Divine Power. Moreover, a Dao Palace is more stable than a Purple Mansion. Xiao Tian did not believe that Jing Yan would endure much longer in such a fierce battle.

”Sword Intent Divine Ability!” Jing Yan unleashed his Sword Intent Divine Ability.

”Boom!”

This strike sent Xiao Tian flying.

”What?” Xiao Tian, caught by surprise, was pushed back in mid-air.

He felt that Jing Yan had used a Divine Ability. Yet, for a demonic Martial Artist like Jing Yan to comprehend a Divine Ability was not beyond Xiao Tian’s expectations. However, the power of the Divine Ability unleashed by Jing Yan exceeded his imagination.

Despite Xiao Tian’s exhaustive efforts to resist, even deploying his own Divine Ability, he could not completely block the Colorful Sword Light head-on, and his body was uncontrollably sent flying. Even his abdominal Dao Palace was trembling violently, and his Divine Power was thrown into disarray.

”A One-star True God is nothing more than this.” Jing Yan looked coldly at Xiao Tian, speaking in a steady voice.

”Hmph, boy, don’t be cocky. It’s not so easy to kill me.” Xiao Tian struggled to stabilize his body and couldn’t help but retort upon hearing Jing Yan’s words.

”Is that so? Then let’s find out!” Jing Yan’s mouth curled into a smile.

The next sword strike was released once again.

”Lord Su Fu, come quickly to help me. This little bastard is too strong; I’m about to give in. If we join forces, we will surely be able to slay this bastard.” Xiao Tian wasn’t a fool; he understood that continuing to fight like this would ultimately cost him.

If Su Fu, who was watching, could team up with him, the situation would naturally be different. No matter how strong Jing Yan was, could he handle two True God warriors at the same time?

”Xiao Tian, this is your opportunity to earn merit. Seize it yourself. Killing Jing Yan would be a huge achievement, and Brother Hua would value you even more.” Su Fu shook her head, clearly not intending to join the fray.

In fact, Su Fu didn’t care at all whether Xiao Tian lived or died. Even if Xiao Tian were killed by Jing Yan, what would it matter to her?

”This Jing Yan is indeed very formidable. I’m afraid I’m not his match in a direct confrontation. And my Charming Skill is ineffective against him.” As Su Fu watched the two battle, thoughts of admiration turned in her mind.

”It’s a pity he doesn’t want to engage in Dual Cultivation with me.” At this moment, Su Fu felt somewhat unwilling.

The more unattainable something is, sometimes the more one desires it. Jing Yan’s outright rejection of her made her furious, yet simultaneously she wished even more to win Jing Yan’s heart.

Hearing Su Fu’s words, Xiao Tian couldn’t help but curse inwardly. He already regretted rashly engaging in battle with Jing Yan; he really shouldn’t have left the Black Water Tribe.

Damn it!

”Boom!”

With the swallowing of Colorful Sword Light, Xiao Tian was continuously sent flying.

As the fight went on, Xiao Tian became increasingly certain that he was no match for Jing Yan. If he continued fighting, it was inevitable that he would eventually fall at Jing Yan’s hands.

He didn’t want to die, so... he must flee!

”Whoosh!”

Seizing the opportunity while being knocked back, Xiao Tian spun around, activated his Divine Power, and accelerated his flight speed to its limit, determined to leave here, not wanting to continue fighting with Jing Yan.

How he would explain himself to Su Fu was not his concern anymore; his life was on the line, how could he worry about Su Fu?

As long as he could return alive to the Black Water Tribe, he would naturally be safe. Despite Jing Yan having a slightly stronger combat power than him, if he could harness the power of the tribe’s formation, Jing Yan surely wouldn’t be able to kill him. Moreover, they could potentially turn the tables and kill Jing Yan.

The multi-layered formations inside and outside the Black Water Tribe, once activated, are remarkably powerful.

”Want to leave?”

”Chief Xiao Tian, since you’re here, why rush to leave? Are you perhaps afraid? When you led people to slaughter the members of the Heavenly Origin Tribe on this ore vein, you probably didn’t foresee you’d face such a day, right?” Seeing Xiao Tian turn to flee, Jing Yan sneered while speaking during his pursuit.

”This ore vein was discovered by the Heavenly Origin Tribe, and it has nothing to do with your Black Water Tribe. Yet I gave you, Xiao Tian, face and personally visited the Black Water Tribe to negotiate the allocation of the ore vein resources. And you? You showed arrogance and didn’t even meet with me, but I was still willing to give the Black Water Tribe forty percent of the ore vein income. How did you respond to me, Xiao Tian?” Jing Yan continued speaking slowly.

”Today, you will stay here.” Jing Yan’s voice suddenly rose, filled with murderous intent.

Since Xiao Tian led people to slaughter Heavenly Origin Tribe members, Jing Yan had already nurtured the intent to kill Xiao Tian. Hence, he couldn’t possibly allow Xiao Tian to escape back to the Black Water Tribe.

”Source Power!”

The Colorful Sword Light once again condensed in space. This time, Jing Yan infused it with Body Origin Power, along with the Second Realm Sword Intent Divine Ability; this sword’s power was extremely terrifying.

The fleeing Xiao Tian was filled with remorse. If he had known Jing Yan was this difficult to deal with, he would have simply agreed to the forty percent of the ore vein income.

But now it’s too late for regrets.

Xiao Tian felt a surge of murderous intent swiftly approaching from behind, and he hastily swept the staff-like Divine Artifact in his hand in reverse.

”Persist! This Jing Yan wishes to kill me, but it won’t be that easy. As long as I continue to flee while resisting his attacks until I reach the Black Water Tribe, I’ll be safe.” Xiao Tian calculated in his mind.

”Hmm?”

”Not good!”

”How has his Attack Power suddenly increased?” Xiao Tian quickly realized something was wrong, and his face changed drastically.

While blocking Jing Yan’s attack in reverse, he couldn’t completely fend off the Sword Light initially. But after deploying his own attacks to obstruct the Sword Light, its Power wasn’t too strong. Furthermore, with his Defensive Divine Artifact mitigating it, Jing Yan’s Sword Light couldn’t inflict much harm on him. But now, this Colorful Sword Light’s Power had increased significantly compared to before.
