Unrivaled Medicine God, page 526
The entire space was trembling. The originally already incomparably piercingly cold sword energy became several times more violent at this time!.
Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh …
Several streaks of sword energy directly tore through the sky and struck the devilish woman and the others, who were currently running with a momentum like a sudden peal of thunder, which left no time for covering ears.
“ARGHH!!”
A series of miserable cries reached over. Those few whose strengths were slightly weaker were actually immediately ground to death by the sword energy.
The devilish woman also let out a shrill miserable scream. But her body only slightly paused for a bit before speeding hastily into the distance again.
That threaded-pommel longsword already appeared fully from within the void. The sword energy that exuded made Ye Yuan’s scalp tingle, virtually unable to breathe.
“This … Is this the might of a Deity Realm powerhouse? So powerful! Really so powerful!” Ye Yuan could not be bothered with the injuries on his body as he muttered.
After the enormous threaded-pommel longsword appeared, it stopped in the air just like that. The void behind it gradually closed up.
The devilish woman could not resist turning around to take a look at the longsword. Her eyes immediately became wide saucers.
“Damn it! Absolute Heaven, you old bastard! Don’t let this holy mother find your grotto! Otherwise, I’ll definitely dig you out and whip your corpse!” the devilish woman cried out shrilly.
However, the threaded-pommel longsword naturally would not be threatened by her. After it stopped in the air for a few breaths of time, it transformed into a streak of flowing light with a whoosh, chopping towards the devilish woman.
The threaded-pommel longsword’s speed was unbelievably fast. It drew a beautiful half-arc in the air. In virtually a blink of an eye, it caught up to the devilish woman.
“ARGHH!!”
A shrill wretched cry cut across the sky. Even when separated so far away, it made Ye Yuan breakout in goosebumps all over too.
A cloud of faint black gas surged to the skies. But Ye Yuan discovered that the black gas’s aura was incomparably weak, practically on the verge of withering away already.
Ye Yuan used all of his abilities and was also incapable of shaking the Holy Mother Devil Flower. But she was actually nearly eradicated by this slash.
Ye Yuan and Ye Qing exchanged a glance, both seeing the look of shock in the other party’s eyes.
“Lord Holy Mother, quickly leave!”
The target of this slash was the Holy Mother Devil Flower. But the threaded-pommel giant sword was too terrifying. Jia Lan was implicated by the sword energy, aggravating his existing injuries even more.
However, Jia Lan’s condition at this time was slightly better compared to the Holy Mother Devil Flower. He grabbed hold of the Holy Mother Devil Flower, transformed into two clouds of black gas, and vanished from within the Immemorial Medicine Garden.
All of the dust settled. Ye Yuan finally let out a sigh in relief.
This great battle was truly perilous to the extreme. If that threaded-pommel giant sword was any slower, Ye Yuan was dead for sure.
Looking at the Immemorial Medicine Garden in disarray, Ye Yuan sighed unceasingly too.
Over 100 thousand martial artists entered inside and were actually slaughtered easily!
Even Ye Yuan did not think that this Immemorial Medicine Garden was actually a place where an ancient major power suppressed a fiend race’s major power. And this fiend race major power was even adept in schemes, and actually deceived 100 thousand martial artists into breaking the formation together, letting her break free.
That devilish woman’s strength was too horrifying. Even if Ye Yuan possessed a heaven-defying item like the Vast Heaven Stone Stele, he felt powerless to handle too.
Right at this time, a streak of flowing light flew over from a distance. Incomparably fierce and sharp sword energy approached from far away, making Ye Yuan’s expression changed drastically.
“Not good, this sword wouldn’t kill even us too, right?” Ye Qing turned pale with fright and said.
Ye Yuan shook his head and said with a bitter smile, “If it wants to kill us, we can’t run either.”
Clank!
That threaded-pommel longsword flew right in front of Ye Yuan and stood in the air quietly.
At this time, the threaded-pommel longsword was already no longer as massive as when it just appeared. It was just slightly longer than an ordinary sword. There was not much difference.
It was just that the sword energy emanating off its body still made one’s blood run cold.
Ye Yuan looked over and discovered that two words were engraved below the sword hilt: Evil Extermination!
Chapter 1077. Had You Known This Day Would Come, Why Act as You Did Back Then |
“Ye Yuan, it wouldn’t kill us, right?”
Sensing that oppressive sword energy, Ye Qing still had some lingering fear in his heart.
The impression that Evil Extermination’s unyielding slash left for Ye Qing previously was simply too deep.
Ye Yuan shook his head and said, “Doesn’t seem like it! It seems to be … making me accept it!”
Ye Qing was stunned and said in disbelief, “Are you joking! This Evil Extermination Sword is a divine artifact! On what basis would it want you to accept it for no reason whatsoever?”
Ye Yuan struggled, wanting to get up. But because his injuries were too severe, it made him feel a wave of heart-tearing pain.
“Help me over!” Ye Yuan said.
“R-Really have to go over?” Ye Qing was still rather afraid.
“No sh*t! If it wanted to kill us, we’d be long dead! Hurry up!” Ye Yuan urged.
Ye Qing had no choice and could only support Ye Yuan, following him at every step, and came before the Evil Exterminating Sword.
When Ye Yuan drew close, the Evil Extermination Sword became resplendent all of a sudden, giving off a pale-yellow light.
Ye Qing jumped in fright and involuntarily took a step back.
But this retreat tugged onto Ye Yuan’s wounds, making it hurt until he winced in pain.
“I say, you’re a heaven and earth spiritual plant too, so why are you intimidated by a sword? Isn’t it shameful!” Ye Yuan said crossly.
Ye Qing said, rather embarrassedly, “The power of Deity Realm is unimaginable!”
Ye Yuan rolled his eyes. But he actually understood Ye Qing very much in his heart too. That attack earlier, forget about Ye Qing, even he was also deeply shaken.
That was the true power of Deity Realm!
Ye Yuan knew that even though that blow did not surpass the limits of Deity Realm, what it used was absolutely Divine Dao laws!
The power of that sword should be the strongest attack that could be released at present in this world.
This sword made Ye Yuan feel a deep longing towards Deity Realm.
But Ye Yuan understood that he was currently too far away from Deity Realm!
Sucking in a deep breath, Ye Yuan stepped forward and grabbed hold of the Evil Extermination Sword’s sword hilt.
Swoosh!
Ye Yuan’s entire body trembled, directly sending Ye Qing flying.
Ye Qing tumbled a few rounds on the ground, scrambled to his feet, and was just about to go save Ye Yuan, but discovered to his shock that the injuries on Ye Yuan’s body were recovering at a speed visible to the naked eye!
This Evil Extermination Sword was actually helping Ye Yuan treat his wounds!
Currently, Ye Yuan’s entire person was enveloped in a ball of yellow light, his expression serene, an appearance of enjoying immensely.
Seeing this scene, Ye Qing was incredibly shocked. Could it be that this Evil Extermination Sword really acknowledged Ye Yuan as its master?
Really strange!
Ye Qing knew that Ye Yuan acquired many treasures these last few years. It could be said to be heaven-defying destiny.
But something like today where a divine artifact took the initiative to come knocking on the door, was too preposterous, right?
Even obtaining the Sacred Dragon Token, Ye Yuan escaped death by a hair’s breadth too, only obtaining after passing the final trail.
But speaking of which, the treasures currently on Ye Yuan were simply heaven-defying.
Tier 9 primordial spirit essence fire, Tier 9 Origin Magnetism Spirit Wood, Sacred Dragon Token, Vast Heaven Pagoda, Vast Heaven Stone Stele, Soul Suppressing Pearl. Taking any item out would drive the world insane.
But something like today where a divine artifact was urging Ye Yuan to accept it, it was really for the first time still.
One had to acknowledge that Ye Qqing’s eyeballs fell to the ground.
In truth, how was Ye Qing the only one whose eyeballs dropped onto the ground?
Sword Thirteen the few of them were not thoroughly dead yet. Although they had quite a bit of blood essence drawn away, they were not in danger of losing their lives. It was just that their strength would likely have to be greatly diminished.
Their bodies were unable to move currently, but they did not fall unconscious.
This scene of Ye Yuan taking in Evil Extermination landed in their eyes, nearly making them faint dead.
This Evil Extermination’s shocking slash earlier, they all saw it crystal clear. That power simply sent their minds reeling.
Such a supreme treasure actually acknowledged Ye Yuan as master without doing anything at all?
Why didn’t this sort of good thing land on their heads?
Currently, Ye Yuan was basking in comfort from head to toe. The pain and fatigue brought about by the battle earlier were swept clean very quickly.
Abundant essence energy flowed into his essence energy sea. Emperor qi also rose densely.
What gave Ye Yuan a pleasant surprise was that these essence energies were not ordinary essence energy, but … divine essence!
In the essence energy sea, that tiny bit of divine essence was going to be depleted fully very soon. He did not think that Evil Extermination actually replenished it for him.
Before long, the divine essence within Ye Yuan’s body grew to even more than when Ye Yuan entered the Vast Heaven Pagoda in the past.
With this Evil Extermination Sword, the power of Ye Yuan’s divine king domain would increase greatly!
Ye Yuan knew that these divine essences were merely a tiny residual bit of what remained after that slash by Evil Extermination.
But this bit was already sufficient to Ye Yuan.
Even if inside his essence energy sea was full of divine essence currently, Ye Yuan was also unable to unleash Evil Extermination’s true power. His current strength was too weak.
Ye Yuan completely did not think that he actually profited from a misfortune this time. Not only did divine essence spike greatly, he even obtained a divine artifact again!
The Starmoon Sword was already somewhat impeding to the current Ye Yuan.
Absorbing so much divine essence, Ye Yuan’s cultivation realm already reached peak Second Level Dao Profound, looking as if he was about to break through to Third Level Dao Profound already.
But his current blood essence losses were too severe, and he was totally unable to breakthrough. Helpless, he could only suppress his cultivation realm, and make a breakthrough again after recovering blood essence.
Done with these, Ye Yuan deployed a spell and put the Vast Heaven Stone Stele away into the Vast Heaven Pagoda.
While at this time, the Evil Extermination Sword disappeared with a whoosh.
Ye Yuan was first startled, then immediately revealed a look of realization.
Inside the Vast Heaven Pagoda, the Evil Extermination Sword suspended quietly in the sky above the Vast Heaven Stone Stele. The two chimed to each other across a distance and actually seemed like old friends who had not met for many years.
No wonder the Evil Extermination Sword would acknowledge him as its master. It seemed like it was all because of the Vast Heaven Stone Stele!
Furthermore, when the devilish woman came into being previously, the Evil Extermination Sword held off on coming out. The moment the Vast Heaven Stone Stele emerged, it came into being.
Looks like the crux of drawing out the Evil Extermination Sword was still the Vast Heaven Stone Stele!
Could it be that these two treasures were actually of the same source countless years ago?
Finishing with all this, Ye Yuan came beside Sword Thirteen and the rest, and said with an emotional sigh, “If you brought Jian Wushuang away back then, he wouldn’t have ended up in such a state either! This world has divine objects, but it’s easier said than done to want to break through to Deity Realm! At present, how can this heaven and earth possibly give birth to the Dao Spirit Fruit, this kind of miraculous item?”
Hearing Ye Yuan’s words, Sword Thirteen turned his head over painfully and ashamedly.
In the great battle previously, Jian Wushuang ultimately still could not escape misfortune and was killed by the devil vines.
Thinking about it, how sincere was Ye Yuan’s warning back then! If they were not blinded by obsession, how could they have this outcome today?
Jian Wushuang’s demise was a tremendous blow to the Heavenly Sword Sect.
Although he was not a Void Mystic powerhouse, he was the sect-master successor that the Heavenly Sword Sect spent extremely great resources to groom.
With his demise, the Heavenly Sword Sect would have to face the danger of an interrupted generation.
The decline of a great holy land would most likely start from this incident.
Ye Yuan heaved a sigh and said, “Today’s situation, you all experienced it too. The fiend race has already plotted for god knows how many years for the sake of today. There’s already not the slightest bit of meaning for us to carry on fighting internally. The spirit medicines in this Immemorial Medicine Garden are extremely abundant. Later on, I’ll refine several mystic grade medicinal pills to help you all recover blood essence.”
Chapter 1078. Holy Region |
Inside the Immemorial Medicine Garden, Sword Thirteen, Shu Yunqing, Ding Zhanguo, and the others, all five Void Mystic powerhouses, looked towards Ye Yuan with a grateful look.
Two months had already passed since the incident with the fiend race.
In this period of time, Ye Yuan collected quite a few spirit medicines inside the Immemorial Medicine Garden and refined a batch of blood essence recovering medicinal pills, letting these few people recover blood essence at long last.
Including Ye Yuan, the injuries this time was too severe. Even with large quantities of spirit medicines, everyone also spent two month’s time before barely managing to recover.
But after the few of them went through this, even if they recovered blood essence, their strength was greatly diminished too.
These few people’s age were not young anymore. This battle could be said to have greatly damaged their vitality. They were already no longer able to reach peak condition anymore.
The Void Mystic powerhouses that entered this time, not counting Ye Yuan’s side, were as many as 13 people. But currently, there were only a measly few people left.
The brutality of this great battle could be imagined.
“Young Master Ji, this time … it was all thanks to you! I … am ashamed!” Sword Thirteen’s gratitude carried bashfulness as he said.
“Young Master Ji saved this Shu twice altogether. Such a great favor, this Shu will never forget it. In the future, if Young Master Ji has anything you need my Heavenly Dawn Palace to help with, feel free to ask away,” Shu Yunqing said gratefully.
He was schemed against by He Dajiang the last time and almost died. It was Ye Yuan who saved him.
Even though Ye Yuan snatched away the Iceflame Mystic Sovereign Ganoderma, Ye Yuan saving his life was a fact.
The other few people were also endlessly grateful, expressing thanks to Ye Yuan.
This great battle, from start to end, it was Ye Yuan restraining the Holy Mother Devil Flower and Jia Lan, these two great fiends. They all, these Void Mystic powerhouses, basically played supporting characters.
Even that deadly slash at the end had extremely deep connections to Ye Yuan too.
These few people were all extremely perceptive people. They could naturally discern that a divine artifact like Evil Extermination, absolutely would not acknowledge Ye Yuan as master without rhyme or reason.
Prior to this, their impression of Ye Yuan still stopped at that kid who only wholeheartedly knew pill refinement.
But now, their impression of Ye Yuan was already thoroughly overhauled.
Scheming, strength, destiny, plus alchemy path cultivation, Ye Yuan was a heaven-defying existence in all of them.
The present Ye Yuan was already totally different from that Ji Qingyun back then.
He had already matured into a genuine powerhouse!
“Everyone, no need to be courteous. Saving you all isn’t because this Ye is very kindhearted. I just want to preserve a portion of strength for the Divine Realm. Probably before long, the calamity of the fiend race will utterly erupt. At that time, the human race is bound to have a great battle with the fiend race. All of you leaving behind a useful body, when the time comes, contribute a portion of strength for the human race!” Ye Yuan said coolly.
If it were before, Ye Yuan definitely would not care about the few of them and just let them run their own course.
But now, Ye Yuan’s thinking was different.
Evil Extermination Sword acknowledging him as master made a sort of mission spontaneously well up in his heart.
Even though many things were buried in the annals of history, after going through so much, Ye Yuan knew that the war between the human race and fiend race had actually been continuing all along!
The Vast Heaven Stone Stele should have already changed several masters. Each master likely had an earth-shaking great battle with the fiend race.
The most recent one should be Fang Tian.
Very clearly, the fiend race was suppressed. But no matter how they were suppressed, the fiend race did not die out.
