Chapter 1394: Chapter 1396: Taking Sides
Beside her, Mo Qingluan wielded the Cold Ice Sword, freezing everything in its path. Wherever she went, people were enveloped in ice seals, and her Cold Ice Law melded with the Path of Space, making it nearly impossible for those enveloped by her Space Dao Intent to withstand her sword.
"Young Master Xiao, take care!" Yang Qian’Er smiled softly and flickered away like a phantom. In her hand appeared a seven-colored ribbon, and she danced like a fairy, her movements seamless and graceful.
Anyone engulfed by her ribbon perished beneath it.
The ribbon seemed like a Divine Weapon in Yang Qian’Er’s hand.
Xiao Tianyu was slightly surprised by this. Although the dancing fairy was beautiful, she killed without a hint of hesitation, beheading opponents with ease and tearing apart their bodies in a mere stride.
Swoosh~
At that moment, a streak of Sword Light came roaring towards Xiao Tianyu, the Sword Aura frigid and impossibly swift.
The one who launched this strike was a Sword Cultivator prodigy from the Juechen Sword Sect, named Zhang Feng.
"Watch out!" Mo Qingluan warned beside him and took a step forward, her Cold Ice Sword piercing towards Zhang Feng, who immediately felt the terrifying Space Dao Intent contained in Mo Qingluan’s sword.
This forced Zhang Feng to withdraw his attack on Xiao Tianyu and retreat.
"Think you can just leave?" Xiao Tianyu stepped forward mightily, an overwhelmingly violent aura crushing down, enveloping Zhang Feng. In an instant, Zhang Feng felt he was facing not Xiao Tianyu, but a gigantic peak suppressing everything.
"Kill!" Zhang Feng realized escape was hopeless, snorted coldly, and slashed his long sword at the void. Boom, boom, boom~ Yet, in an instant, Zhang Feng’s Sword Aura shattered in the void.
Directly suppressed by Xiao Tianyu.
Boom~
The next second, a loud noise echoed, and Zhang Feng’s body was crushed by Xiao Tianyu’s strike. At this moment, Xiao Tianyu felt a sharp gaze upon him, extremely cold, like eternal ice piercing straight into his bones.
Xiao Tianyu scanned his gaze at the opponent, realizing it was none other than the Sect Leader of Juechen Sword Sect, Jue Chen.
Reputed as the top sword among the youth of Yanzhou Ancient Realm.
Then, Jue Chen spoke to Xiao Tianyu, "Even with ten remaining, you will still die!"
These words were utterly cold.
Implying that even if by chance Xiao Tianyu lasted until the end, Jue Chen wouldn’t spare him, causing Duan Sanqing nearby to flash a hint of malice.
In Duan Sanqing’s view, if Jue Chen wished to kill Xiao Tianyu, then Xiao Tianyu’s fate was sealed.
However, Xiao Tianyu ignored this.
He stepped forward, killed someone with a reverse slash, then, buzz~ the sound of an Ancient Bell seemed to echo through the realm, the bell slaying souls, and those enveloped by its sound felt their Life Spirits shudder.
This Ancient Bell was obtained from the Soul Refining Battlefield within the Cold Ice Tower in Thousand Cities land, and its soul-slaying name was given by Xiao Tianyu himself. Over the past year, Xiao Tianyu had never unleashed this Soul-Slaying Ancient Bell.
"Kill!" Xiao Tianyu snorted coldly next, sword qi burst around him, and in a flash, it was as though a myriad of swords rang out in the void, each Sword Aura containing an incredibly terrifying Sword Dao Intent.
Puff, puff, puff~
Under his Sword Aura, more than a dozen people fell at the hands of Xiao Tianyu.
This was not a place for mercy.
To leave here alive, one must kill.
And for him, he had killed far fewer than other prominent prodigies, several times less.
Generally, if they did not deliberately attack Xiao Tianyu, he wouldn’t strike first.
But since he was here, Xiao Tianyu naturally wouldn’t hold back.
Currently, here, there were nearly no friends, only foes. It can be said that only when the other fell would he have a larger chance of leaving alive.
Compared to life, all Dao intent must be set aside.
Elsewhere.
Yang Qian’Er was similarly merciless, her seven-colored ribbon flying through, blood splattering. Yet her ribbon remained unstained, just as clean as before.
But, who would know how many people’s blood this clean ribbon had been dyed with?
Despite appearing delicate, she killed with such coldness.
Puff, puff, puff~
In mere moments, several more lives were lost to her hands.
Was she a fragile beauty?
Not at all.
Her decisiveness in action was unmatched by most men, and this seemed to be why she forged the Celestial Maiden Sect.
This time, the Celestial Maiden Sect she brought had only three people.
All were the extraordinary female prodigies of the Celestial Maiden Sect.
Her right and left hand women.
Thus, having brought them here, Yang Qian’Er aimed to take them out alive; the lives of the Celestial Maiden Sect members, to her, could not be extinguished.
This was her duty as Sect Leader.
To bring them out, they needed to enter the top ten.
Not only did Yang Qian’Er need to make the top ten, but her three subordinates also must, only then could they leave safely.
As for the expressionless Celestial Spirit Divine Eye observing the ruthless battlefield, there was no ripple in his demeanor, as if all lives here were mere grass in his eyes, dead and forgotten.
After half a day of slaughter, there were nearly five hundred initially, only less than fifty remained. Each survivor bore solemn gazes, their robes bloodstained.
Underfoot, rivers of blood flowed.
Only ten could advance, so fifty still faced elimination.
"Kill!" At this moment, three figures from Nine Provinces City struck swiftly, forming an array in cooperation, invincible in their pursuit. They targeted those not deemed the strongest prodigies.
This clearly increased their chances.
Regarding Jue Chen, sword in hand, Sword Dao was peerless. Every flash of cold light saw someone fall at his blade.
The Soul-Slaying Ancient Bell could decimate souls, and anyone attacking Xiao Tianyu and Mo Qingluan was essentially eradicated by Xiao Tianyu’s suppression. Xiao Tianyu’s blue robe was bloodstained, though not too visibly.
After nearly another hour of combat, only sixteen remained on the battlefield.
They were Yang Qian’Er and her three subordinates, three prodigies from Nine Provinces City, Xiao Tianyu, Mo Qingluan, Qin Jian, Duan Sanqing, and two disciples from Sanqing Sect, Jue Chen, and two Profound Emperor Hall prodigies, Ren Qian and Ren Feng.
These two were brothers, explicitly chosen by the Profound Emperor to tread this ancient path.
However, sixteen still needed to eliminate six more.
"Yang Qian’Er!" At this moment, Jue Chen spoke up, "Have you made your choice yet? Will you stand on my side or Xiao Tianyu’s side? I told you earlier, even with ten remaining, Xiao Tianyu has no chance to leave here alive!"
Whoosh, whoosh~
Upon hearing this, the battle instantly halted, all eyes fixed on Yang Qian’Er.
Currently, with four from the Celestial Maiden Sect, plus Xiao Tianyu and Mo Qingluan, there were precisely six.
If Yang Qian’Er continued supporting Xiao Tianyu, she might be eliminated by Jue Chen.
Thus, exactly ten would remain on this battlefield.
For the others here, it undoubtedly presented an opportunity.
Now, it was time to choose sides.
