Fate-Defying Demon Emperor-Chapter 333 - 320: Both Sides Lose

Su Han was cultivating in seclusion within the blood pool, while Xiao Tian and Jing Yun were still fighting over it. They exchanged blows, deploying a full array of techniques. Victories were traded, but neither could secure a decisive advantage.

"The True Dragon Essence Blood is mine, Jing Yun. Since you refuse to see reason, don't blame me for being ruthless!" Xiao Tian gasped for breath, his face deathly pale and his body covered in wounds, but his arrogant nature hadn't diminished in the slightest. The continuous battles without a conclusion had made him grow impatient.

WHOOSH!

With a swift motion, Xiao Tian reached out, and a golden elixir appeared in his hand. No larger than a dragon's eye, the elixir shimmered with a brilliant golden light. It was smooth and luminous, emitting intense waves of medicinal power, like a miniature sun. This was the Mysterious Yang Dao Pill, made by harvesting the essence of the sun and fusing it with many precious spiritual medicines. Although it was a Supreme Grade elixir, it was tinged with a hint of Holy Aura, making it comparable to a Semi-Holy Pill. Aside from his Saint Treasure, this was Xiao Tian's most precious possession. The Mysterious Yang Dao Pill was so potent that consuming it would place a great burden on his body and cause significant damage. For this reason, he had never used it before.

GULP!

Without hesitation, Xiao Tian popped the Mysterious Yang Dao Pill into his mouth and swallowed it. In an instant, the pill dissolved. The immense medicinal power caused Xiao Tian's aura to soar as a dazzling golden light burst forth from within him. At that moment, Xiao Tian glowed all over, his black hair billowing and his robes fluttering majestically. He looked like a deity descended from the heavens—invincible and unstoppable.

BOOM!

The power of the Mysterious Yang Dao Pill was overwhelming. Xiao Tian originally had the strength of the Divine Power Realm Ninth Layer, but with this medicinal power, he temporarily possessed the might of the Heavenly King Realm First Layer. Although he would revert to his original cultivation once the elixir's effects wore off, his Combat Power was massively boosted for now.

"Slash!"

Wielding the Ultimate Killing Sword, Xiao Tian unleashed a slash. The Sword Radiance turned pale gold, not only incredibly sharp but also imbued with the scorching might of the sun. Space itself was cleaved, creating a long gash as the Sword Radiance shot out like a golden meteor, heading straight for Jing Yun. With the power of the Mysterious Yang Dao Pill, Xiao Tian's Combat Power soared, making him far more powerful than before.

Jing Yun's pupils shrank in shock. Alarmed, he spared no expense to fight back with all his might.

"Kun Fish Essence Blood, grant me strength!"

Although Jing Yun didn't have a Semi-Holy Pill, he possessed a drop of even more precious Kun Fish Essence Blood, which he quickly consumed and refined. Surging energy coursed through his body, causing his aura to swell like an abyss and surge like the tide, increasing it sharply.

SPLASH!

A flick of Jing Yun's massive tail stirred up towering, layered waves that met the golden Sword Radiance head-on, blocking it completely.

"I will not be defeated this time!" Xiao Tian roared to the heavens, fusing with his Physique and gripping the Ultimate Killing Sword. He pushed his Storm Monarch Body to its absolute limit and charged forward with overwhelming force. 𝒇𝙧𝙚𝓮𝔀𝓮𝒃𝙣𝓸𝒗𝒆𝒍.𝙘𝒐𝒎

"Earth Rank High Level Martial Technique: Great Sun Qiankun Sword Technique!"

Xiao Tian attacked with full force, channeling torrents of Spiritual Energy into the Ultimate Killing Sword. He invoked its inherent Dao Rhyme, causing the blade to burst forth with a dazzling light.

WHOOSH! WHOOSH! WHOOSH!

Hundreds, even thousands, of golden Sword Qi screamed forth. Each beam was razor-sharp and swift, like a ray of sunlight or a fierce gust of wind. In an instant, the golden Sword Qi formed a Sword Qi Storm that charged toward Jing Yun.

"Earth Rank High Level Martial Technique: Boundless Ocean!"

Jing Yun was not to be outdone. He used the power of the Kun Fish Essence Blood to launch his trump card. The sky and earth changed color as a phantom image of an immense, boundless ocean appeared behind him. It was unfathomably deep, with towering waves and powerful currents that rushed to meet the thousands of golden Sword Qi.

BOOM! RUMBLE!

The two great Martial Techniques collided in mid-air. The impact was like a stellar explosion or an earthquake triggering a tsunami; the fluctuations were extreme and the sight was terrifying. If Dragon Blood Mountain hadn't been saturated with Dragon Blood, it likely would have crumbled to dust under their clash. That single strike sent both Xiao Tian and Jing Yun staggering back several steps, each sustaining minor injuries.

"Origin Technique: Eye of the Storm!"

Xiao Tian gave his all to activate his Storm Monarch Body, deploying the Origin Technique unique to him. Endless winds howled, forming a kilometer-sized storm. He stood at its center, the eye, which contained unparalleled destructive might.

"Go!"

With a push of his hands, Xiao Tian sent the kilometer-sized storm spinning at high speed, hurtling directly toward Jing Yun. Jing Yun's face changed, and he quickly retaliated. Waves towered to the heavens as the boundless ocean surged, striving to ward off the assault. But the might of an Origin Technique far exceeded that of an ordinary Martial Technique. Furthermore, Xiao Tian's Storm Monarch Body was nearing Great Accomplishment. The Eye of the Storm slammed into Jing Yun, tearing through his thick skin and leaving behind gaping, blood-drenched wounds.

"Intermediate Grade Divine Power: Furious Wind's Roar!"

Xiao Tian struck again, deploying his Divine Power Technique with his Wind God Physique. A furious gale enveloped Jing Yun, assaulting his spirit sea directly, causing it to shake violently and leaving his spirit drained and wilted.

Xiao Tian went all out, unleashing his Origin Technique and Divine Power Technique simultaneously while wielding the Ultimate Killing Sword and executing his Heavenly Shocking Sword Technique. Jing Yun was driven back, his injuries worsening with every step. Crimson blood flowed from his wounds, dyeing his entire body red.

"Even if I'm grievously injured, I won't let you get away unscathed!" Jing Yun clenched his teeth and roared. Steeling his resolve, he opened his mouth wide and shockingly swallowed the endless storm. These winds were sharp as blades and incredibly violent; even his extraordinary Physical Body could not withstand them. But in the next moment, Jing Yun violently expelled the storm he had just ingested. Now compressed and condensed, it transformed into a long dragon of wind that shot back toward Xiao Tian.

Xiao Tian's expression changed, and he scrambled to defend himself. But this attack was his own, turned against him at full force. It was immensely powerful. He was sent flying, spitting blood in mid-air before collapsing to the ground with grievous injuries. At the same time, Jing Yun also collapsed with a thunderous thud. The severe trauma from ingesting the storm left him unable to struggle, his enormous body riddled with wounds. On the other side, Xiao Tian had also been struck by the final wind dragon. His bones were shattered, his organs were ruptured, and blood flowed from all seven orifices, leaving him barely clinging to life.

Thus, the astounding battle between Xiao Tian and Jing Yun ended in a way no one could have imagined: both combatants were left grievously wounded.

However, neither Xiao Tian nor Jing Yun was dead. They lay on the ground, desperately trying to recover from their injuries. At this point, whoever recovered first would gain the upper hand and claim final victory. Xiao Tian and Jing Yun stared intently at each other, each hoping to recuperate faster than his opponent.

WHOOSH!

Just then, the blood-red pillar of light that shot up into the sky suddenly dimmed and rapidly disappeared. This change startled Xiao Tian and Jing Yun, who finally noticed that something was amiss with the blood pool.
