Son-in-law Heaven Emperor Xiao Yi-Chapter 549 - 548: Xiao Yi, Crisis!
"If you can withstand three of my moves without dying, I will leave your corpse intact!"
Huihai Sword Master's demeanor was icy, and his words carried a resounding confidence as he spoke.
His voice had barely faded.
His figure had already shattered the void and appeared before Xiao Yi in an instant, sweeping forward with the momentum of moving mountains and overturning seas. With every movement, the power of the Eight Nirvanic Rebirths unleashed incomparably explosive force.
Amidst the terrifying surges of energy, the black longsword once again fell into his palm.
Whoosh!
What seemed like a simple sword strike was imbued with destructive might, and with a loud bang, it slashed down upon Xiao Yi.
However...
The sword's edge did not break through Xiao Yi's defense, as the violent Wind Thunder forces within him automatically formed a protective shield, turning into Wind Thunder battle armor that blocked the formidable strike.
Xiao Yi patted his shoulder, the Wind Thunder battle armor receding into his body, and he smiled slightly, "What of the Eight Nirvanic Rebirths? Your strength hasn't increased much since before, has it!"
"Hmph!"
Huihai Sword Master's face showed a tinge of venomous resentment.
The last battle.
That was his life's greatest humiliation.
Although a large part of that battle was due to his carelessness and underestimation, the shame of having his arm severed became an indelible nightmare. Today, Huihai Sword Master sought to exact his revenge and wash away that humiliation!
"That move just now contained less than half of my strength. Now, let me show you my true power!" Huihai Sword Master revealed a fierce expression, his teeth gritted with bloodlust spilling from his eyes.
In an instant...
Huihai Sword Master flicked his sword finger, and a sword canopy spread across the sky.
At the same time, he pressed down with his palm.
This Skycloak Sword Canopy suddenly fell...
"Boundless Sword Prison!"
Hum!
His palm turned into a giant hand that could cover the sky, with Sword Qi raining down from it, solidifying into Sword Qi chains. These chains plunged from the heavens with a life of their own, shooting towards their target.
These Sword Qi chains were incredibly concentrated, closely linked, and determined to capture Xiao Yi without cease.
Boundless Sword Prison.
Huihai Sword Master had used this move in their previous encounter. Xiao Yi's eyebrows raised, and he said with a cold smile, "The same technique again? You're too naive!"
"This is completely different from before!"
Huihai Sword Master sneered, and suddenly clenched his right hand into the void, causing another layer of sword canopies to rise from the ground below.
The sound of a torrent!
From both ends of the heavens and earth, hundreds of Sword Qi chains whipped into action, twining around Xiao Yi.
Clang! Clang! Clang!
Amidst the sounds of metal clashing, the chains bound Xiao Yi's limbs. The Sword Qi chains stretched from the sky deep into the earth, suddenly pulled taut, suspending Xiao Yi in mid-air.
One.
Two.
Three...

Precisely hundreds of Sword Qi chains formed a circle, sealing off the area around Xiao Yi, trapping him within the enclosure of the chains.
Huihai Sword Master laughed triumphantly, "Last time, you managed to escape to heaven thanks to your Wind Thunder Holy Body. For that, I've specially improved this sword technique. Today, you will be buried within this desolate Sword Prison of mine!"
Such a terrifying technique caused the surrounding spectators to exclaim incessantly, "What a fearsome technique, have you seen how Huihai Sword Master managed to do it?"
"Xiao Yi has been bound and can't possibly break free. It looks like this battle is already over!"
"Xiao Yi, I said I'd kill you within three moves, and definitely won't stretch to a fourth. Now, you can go to your death quietly!" Huihai Sword Master appeared almost insane, with the hatred of his severed arm about to be avenged, his eyes rimmed red with excitement.
However...
Xiao Yi, trapped within the Boundless Sword Prison, simply curled the corners of his mouth and said indifferently, "I've told you, the same technique is useless against me!"
"Hmm?"
Huihai Sword Master was stunned, and suddenly, his face changed drastically.
Xiao Yi's body suddenly radiated a golden light, the thunderous power within him exploding fully, turning into streaks of lightning and electric snakes that crazily coursed along the chains.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
Thunder pierced the sky, making the vault of heaven lose its color.
Thunder struck the earth, overturning the ground itself.
For a moment...
The entire imperial capital, centered around Noon Gate, trembled as thunderbolts plummeted down, shaking the land as if a dragon beneath were turning over.
An apocalyptic scene.
Under the bombardment of the thunderous power, the chains of Sword Qi made loud banging noises and actually burst apart. As Xiao Yi freed himself, he surged forward and slapped Huihai Sword Master twice across the face.
After the slaps...
Xiao Yi swept to the side and landed steadily on the summit of Noon Gate, raising a finger towards Huihai Sword Master, "And now for the final move!"
"Damn you, Xiao Yi, I swear I'm not human if I don't kill you!"
Huihai Sword Master's eyes filled with blood-red rage in an instant, the fiery imprints of slaps on his face nearly driving him mad. He thought that after breaking through to the Eight Nirvana Realm, he would be able to deal with Xiao Yi effortlessly, and wash away the shame of the past!
He even confidently declared that he would take down Xiao Yi in three moves!
Now two moves have passed...
Xiao Yi is not only unscathed but has also given him two slaps across the ears.
This nearly shattered Huihai Sword Master's mental state!
"I will have you dead, I will shred you to pieces..."
Around Huihai Sword Master, vital energy surged, with strands of black energy appearing amidst his wildly tossing hair, as he screamed hysterically like a madman, "Heavenly Sword Style—Sun and Moon Shine Together!"
Swish! Swish!
Huihai Sword Master's form seemed to multiply into thousands, floating in the air with his sword, urging powerful sword techniques from left and right.
Blinding streaks of sword light covered the sky, resembling the stars scattered across the night sky. As the thousands of images of Huihai Sword Master converged again, countless sword lights instantly coalesced into two immensely focused beams of sword light on his left and right.
The left beam of sword light was a fiery red, resembling a circular sword light that flickered on and off, blazing with intense heat.
Under the scorching heat, Sword Qi filled the air, seemingly intent on burning the heavens.
To the right, the sword light was a cold silver, like a crescent moon spinning in the sky, resembling the World-Grinding Disk, seemingly wanting to flatten the vast earth.
One red, one white, like the sun and moon high in the sky.
The terrifying Sword Qi storm hadn't even reached him yet, but it had already pushed Xiao Yi back by hundreds of meters, leaving two huge trenches on the ground where he had passed. The sturdy dust roiled, raising clouds of drifting sand.
The surrounding houses shook violently, and then were uprooted.
Amid the thunderous noise...
Even the colossal and sturdy city walls were scraped with cracks that spread like spiderwebs across the walls.
Destructive Sword Qi left many powerhouses pale with fright, "How... how terrifying a sword move..."
"Is this really the power of someone in the Nirvana Realm?"
Even the Sword Emperor narrowed his eyes at this moment, a hint of horror in his gaze: "What a Huihai Sword Master, this one move alone is as powerful as my strongest strike!"
Standing beside the Sword Emperor, Wang Yanzhao and Hong Ye heard the Sword Emperor's murmur. They exchanged glances, and Hong Ye said in a low voice, "Your Majesty, Xiao Yi's talent is indeed rare in this world, and he commands many techniques, particularly his Body Refinement which comes from the Wind Thunder Holy Body. If we could acquire it, our strength could increase several times over!"
"Please, Your Majesty, rescue him first and then press him for information..." Wang Yanzhao said.
The Sword Emperor nodded with narrowed eyes, "Your words make sense. Then I shall intervene to unravel this fatal crisis for Xiao Yi!"
However...
Just as the Sword Emperor was about to make his move, the battle took another turn.
This caused the Sword Emperor to stop in his tracks, his eyes revealing a look of shock: "This is impossible..."
