This Is Not the Female Demon Lord I Remembered
Chapter 381 - 369: The Tides of Spring River Reach the Level of the Sea
CHAPTER 381: CHAPTER 369: THE TIDES OF SPRING RIVER REACH THE LEVEL OF THE SEA
Unlike the cannon-like cultivators of Complete Heaven Sect and Senluo Wanxiang Sect, the Blood Control Sect primarily consists of blade cultivators. Liu Rouxin, for example, uniquely chose to practice the spear instead of the blade.
Against Liang Yi’s sword which clashed with lightning, stood Ling Ye wielding a long blade engulfed in blazing Blood Flame!
The fiery red Blood Flame wrapped around Ling Ye’s long blade, leaving a trail of charred marks in the Void with every swing.
As a True Inheritor of the Blood Control Sect, Ling Ye was naturally no pushover.
Liang Yi had thought that such a large frame would make for slower movements, but Ling Ye proved him wrong. His agility was remarkable, yet his strength was like a fierce tiger descending the mountain.
With every attack, the fiery red Blood Flame grew more intense, ultimately transforming into a roaring winged tiger on the battlefield!
"Roar!!"
The winged tiger, resembling a mythical beast, let out a thunderous roar as it pounded the earth with its claws and cast a disdainful gaze towards Liang Yi.
"So, Ling Ye is really going all out, even using the Flame Xuan Spirit Tiger," Zhao Xiangsui commented, smacking his lips with an even keener interest in the unfolding drama.
The moment this tiger appeared, Liang Yi felt the pressure on himself double forcibly; this Spirit Tiger was just as powerful as Ling Ye!
"Heh, how dare you roar so loudly in front of Uncle Orange! Today, I must show this ignorant beast who’s the real feline of fury!" Uncle Orange seemed to take it as a personal challenge, bristling to teach the creature a lesson.
"Don’t go, Senior Brother can handle it." Just as Uncle Orange was about to leap out, a slender jade-like hand swiftly grabbed him by the scruff of his neck and held him in her grasp.
"..."
Doesn’t this master have any face left?
Now, Liang Yi is single-handedly facing two True Inheritors from the Blood Control Sect.
"So strong."
Liang Yi continuously parried the dual attacks from Ling Ye and the tiger, and their extremely coordinated moves dangerously escalated their joint threats.
But with Qinglian supporting him, not only did Liang Yi receive hardly any damage, even if his opponents managed to inflict a slight injury, it would heal instantly.
"Isn’t Liang Yi a Sword Cultivator? How can he also have such high proficiency in Body Refinement?" Ling Ye became increasingly alarmed as he fought, realizing the unfathomable depth of Liang Yi.
Now, using his full force without reservations, even his most reliable trump cards failed to pose any threat to Liang Yi.
His proud swordsmanship could not penetrate Liang Yi’s Sword technique, and even after summoning the Flame Xuan Spirit Tiger, which barely caused Liang Yi minor injuries, it was of no use.
The usually domineering Blood Flame was now being suppressed by some inexplicable Thunderbolt, nearly unable to raise its head.
To him, this opponent with no apparent weakness seemed like an ancient thousand-year-old turtle, absolutely indomitable.
After defending for nearly the time it takes an incense stick to burn, Liang Yi had almost gathered all the information he needed about his opponent and was filled with confidence.
Although as a True Inheritor of the Blood Control Sect, his opponent must have one or two extremely powerful moves up his sleeve, he definitely wouldn’t use them in this situation.
Since that was the case, there was nothing more to say—directly bulldoze him!
As the sword moved at will, Ling Ye realized that Liang Yi, who had been passively taking hits, suddenly changed his swordplay, becoming incredibly sharp.
The Immaculate Sword Technique was executed flawlessly, the blade and its movements were like lucent crystal, pure and flawless!
The vulnerability that had been deliberately left open to test Ling Ye had now, with the change of the sword’s momentum, become no longer an opening. Should Ling Ye still foolishly leap in, he would be met with an assault as fierce as a tempestuous downpour.
Liang Yi, going all out with his Freewheeling Glide, became increasingly illusory and elusive. Though alone, under the strangeness of his movement, it appeared as if he were surrounding Ling Ye and the Flame Mystical Spirit Tiger.
The Flame Mystical Spirit Tiger’s head swung left and right, trying to locate Liang Yi’s true body, but it quickly became dizzy from just watching.
Ling Ye’s breath remained steady, with each attack he sought to counterstrike at the moment Liang Yi launched his offensive. He managed to receive all of Liang Yi’s attacks, but his counters vanished as if stones dropped into the ocean.
With each slash, it took down a shadow, but the slashed shadows would soon reappear.
"Take this slash from me!"
Ling Ye was never one to passively take a beating; his style was to grow through battle! Seeing the situation sliding into an irreversible descent, he decisively chose to break through by force, based on his past experiences!
Ling Ye leapt high, his Blood Flame longsword blazed even more fiercely in hand. Unable to locate Liang Yi’s true body, he opted for an area attack to see how Liang Yi would evade!
Roar——
Boom——
A circular ring of fire erupted from the Blood Flame longsword as it struck the ground, sweeping from Ling Ye at the center outwards in all directions. Such unmatched might forced the spectating crowd to involuntarily step back again.
The ground flames, coupled with the Flame Mystical Spirit Tiger’s soul-shaking roars, were enough to intimidate any lurking enemy into taking the brunt of this attack.
However, as the Blood Flames swept across where Liang Yi’s moving shadows were, Liang Yi’s figures shattered silently like dream bubbles, dissipating quietly with the roars of the Flame Mystical Spirit Tiger.
All the shadows that had surrounded Ling Ye and the Flame Mystical Spirit Tiger turned out to be illusions!
"What!?" Ling Ye’s eyes widened in disbelief. The attacks had clearly emanated from those phantom shadows a moment ago, so how could Liang Yi’s true body not be among them?
"Fool, look here!"
Liang Yi’s voice came from above Ling Ye’s head, prompting everyone to look up. Hovering in the Void, Liang Yi beckoned with his hand and Yuan Zhou flew into his grasp from behind Ling Ye.
Only then did Ling Ye understand that it was simply the sword in Liang Yi’s hand that had been attacking him all along.
Feeling humiliated, Ling Ye’s flaming red hair seemed to blaze even brighter in color, and whether it was Liang Yi’s imagination or not, it appeared as though the man’s hair had grown longer.
However, Liang Yi did not dwell on it; he simply wanted to end this battle quickly and find the Sect Leader of the Blood Control Sect to clarify things.
His killer moves couldn’t be unleashed, but Liang Yi’s sword infused with Life Creation still displayed a might that shocked everyone.
Liang Yi descended from the sky, amidst the soundless roaring of Kunpeng in the water; even more terrifying was the faint glimpse of a watery world trailing behind Liang Yi!
Every creature that could be found in the sea, it seemed, had a phantom shadow accompanying Liang Yi’s charge!
While Liang Yi was far from being able to create a world with a single sword strike, he knew where the life of a world originated!
The mighty Kun commanded all creatures in the sea, the shimmering Purple Mist spread its radiance upon the ocean, the Thunderbolt Moon formed by Ancestor Thunder rose at the end of the heavens, and the grand Conception of Life Creation constituted the roaring ocean that lay before everyone’s eyes!
Spring river’s tide-levels meet the sea, and the moon above the sea rises with the tide!
This sword strike represented a world of the origin of life!
