Chapter 224: 137. Defeating True Person, Shi Ruoyu takes action!_2
Gazing upon this scene, the expressions of the people below were all exceedingly complex.
Especially those Primordial Spirit True Persons,
no one had expected that the younger generation, previously overlooked by them, now possessed power surpassing most of their own.
Tian Liuli felt some dissatisfaction with herself, and similarly, Jing Lixue also felt a bit disgruntled.
'Xu Yuan doesn't seem to care at all about what belongs to others, otherwise, the Formation of the Four Divine Beasts alone would be enough to annihilate the two before us. He just doesn't use it, instead relying on his own moves. Should I tell him?'
Before the crowd spectating had time to calm their emotions,
the Emerald Immortal Valley Primordial Spirit True Person above hadn't even caught his breath.
The next moment, the young hero wielding the Thunderfire Sword appeared once again before him,
Xu Yuan held the sword with both hands, his handsome face unswayed, as he swung the sword down furiously!
"Wait, I..."
Feeling the heavy killing intent emanating from the youth, the Fei Immortal Valley True Person hurriedly spoke out, "Young friend, hold on, I will not interfere further!"
Xu Yuan turned a deaf ear, but the cries of the Thunder Dragon and Fire Phoenix on the sword grew louder and more piercing.
"Damn it! This is too much!"
The Fei Immortal Valley True Person felt extremely aggrieved.
It was White Ink, standing behind him, who was the real instigator, so why was the other party still relentlessly targeting him?
It was just a detour, after all!
Moreover, if it were not for fearing the location within Dawn City, where Xu Yuan, having entered the Four Divine Beasts Formation, could use the Heaven and Earth Spiritual Power inexhaustibly, as seen with that previous move he could release at will, he wouldn't have cowered so quickly upon realizing Xu Yuan's combat strength.
The Fei Immortal Valley True Person fiercely struck out with both palms, meeting the Thunderfire Sword.
"Wait, something's wrong!"
As the sword light drew ever closer, he suddenly sensed something amiss.
The sword light flashed by, just once.
Xu Yuan, looking at the blood dripping from his sword, frowned deeply in dissatisfaction.
Then, he turned around, looking toward the two figures that were slowly dissipating in the sword light.
"...The Four Divine Formation! You've actually managed to master the Four Divine Formation!?"
The Fei Immortal Valley True Person gasped for breath, clutching his profusely bleeding right arm, but his eyes showed no resentment, only the relief of having narrowly escaped death.
Just a moment ago, when he intended to block the sword, he suddenly sensed an extremely familiar aura and sensation.
That was... the aura of the White Tiger Killing Formation within the Four Divine Beasts Formation.
And while each Divine Emperor could earn their recognition, not everyone was truly capable of activating them!
Most of the time, what the Divine Emperors utilized was merely the basic Formation that borrowed the Power of Heaven and Earth.
But now, an Outer Domain Demon who had just received the Four Divine Beasts Formation was successfully putting it to use.
Had their ancestral elder not confirmed that Xu Yuan was indeed an Outer Domain Demon, he would have begun to doubt whether the other was an illegitimate child of the Divine Emperor.
The Fei Immortal Valley True Person, with lingering fear in his gaze, saw that on Xu Yuan's Thunderfire Sword, where only the Thunder Dragon and Fire Phoenix used to coil, a small White Tiger was now squinting, as if napping.
But he knew, at the moment when the sword light had flashed, that seemingly napping White Tiger had casually flicked its paw.
Subsequently, his right arm, wrapped in vigorous Spiritual Power, was immediately severed.
As for White Ink behind him, he had long since fled.
Below, Jing Lixue, who had just been feeling somewhat dissatisfied, suddenly revealed a look of pleasant surprise: 'That's more like it, not in vain have I prepared so many whetstones for you, Xu Yuan.'
As long as all the Primordial Spirit True Persons present were killed, surely Xu Yuan's control and understanding of the entire Four Divine Beasts Formation would climb to a new level.
With that thought, she gazed up at Xu Yuan's figure above and couldn't help but reveal a shallow, intoxicated smile, her eyes gleaming with madness.
Kill then, kill then, no matter what, she was there, by his side.
Kill until spurned by all, kill until the anger of gods and men alike, kill until the whole world is an enemy, kill until only she dared to stand by his side!
And thereafter, she would accompany him, step by step toward the peak, to become the revered Master Xu, respected by ten thousand people.
Faced with everyone's shocked expressions, Xu Yuan remained calm.
He had known about these things long ago from the game; had he not been aware of them in advance, how would he dare to confidently rely on the Formation to contend with Tian Liuli and the others?
Gazing at Xu Yuan's eyes, cold as ice, White Ink's liver and gallbladder were shattered: "Fellow Daoists! This evil demon now has the Four Divine Beasts Formation's blessing; if we do not join forces to act now, I'm afraid we will all die here today!"
The True Persons of the Heaven and Earth Sect and Cloud Dream Marsh exchanged glances then looked at the unmoved other four major Sects, all sighed deeply.
To be honest, among the many True Persons present, their level was not much different from that of White Ink and that True Person from the Fei Immortal Valley; if they were to step up, it would also be in vain.
However, Xu Yuan's identity as an Outer Domain Demon was clear, and they could not just sit idly by. Experience more on My Virtual Library Empire
Otherwise, if the word spread out, how would the world view their eight great Sects?
Just as they were steeling themselves to go help,
In the next moment, an incredibly sharp Sword Qi suddenly surged towards the sky.
Liu Ruoxue's eyes widened in disbelief as she turned her head to look at her Master, her voice full of abject misery, "Master!"
Facing her questioning, Shi Ruoyu flew into the air, expressionless, casting only a Silencing Curse her way, then without a moment's hesitation flew towards Xu Yuan.
"Si Shuang, take good care of her."
At the same time, she left behind those words.
"...Yes."
The girl in purple with white hair hesitated for a moment before she answered.
After Shi Ruoyu said those words, she no longer looked at them but flew towards Xu Yuan, her face fraught with cold resolution.
"As expected of an Outer Domain Demon, mesmerizing minds with exceptional skills."
"Oh?"
Xu Yuan's face carried a smile, but deep inside, he was already on full alert.
He could feel that Shi Ruoyu, in front of him, was unlike the previous two True Persons.
Not to speak of anything else, the mere crisis looming in his heart was indicative of her true caliber.
Furthermore, under the suppression of the Heaven and Earth Power he controlled earlier, whether it was White Ink or the True Person from Fei Immortal Valley, they could only be constrained by him, unable to exert even sixty to seventy percent of their full strength.
Yet, Shi Ruoyu, stood like a sword piercing directly through the Spiritual Power pressure he was deploying with his will.
At this moment, Xu Yuan also put aside his contempt for the True Persons.
"Being capable of mastering the Four Divine Beasts Formation, you're quite impressive. Unfortunately, for Ruoxue's Sword Dao, your existence is a threat as long as you're alive."
While speaking, Shi Ruoyu slowly gripped the long sword behind her.
It was a longsword, crystal clear and seemingly crafted of ice and snow; just by laying eyes upon it, one couldn't help but feel chilled to the bone, even the circulation of Spiritual Power slowed.
"Oh?"
Xu Yuan narrowed his eyes, the sense of danger growing even more intense.
"Sword Dao is a double-edged sword, those who cultivate the sword must remain as cold and ruthless as the sword at all times; otherwise, they may easily be injured by its sharpness... I don't know how you deceived Ruoxue into being so infatuated with you, but once you are killed, everything will come to an end, and Ruoxue, too, will return to normal."
For Liu Ruoxue, a once-in-an-epoch Sword Dao genius, Shi Ruoyu broke her usual reticence to speak so much, revealing her true feelings for the first time.
If it were the usual Liu Ruoxue, she would probably have been incomparably moved by now. Unfortunately, for her, there's nothing but deep resentment in her heart towards this fickle Master.
Seeing that her words failed to awake her, Shi Ruoyu sighed, her eyelids drooping as she thrust out her sword.
Just one sword, a single strike.
Xu Yuan felt a difference from White Ink and the others, a true grace belonging solely to a True Person.
