Supreme of the Heavenly Realm-Chapter 768 - 762: In a Tough Spot

Ye Xuan swiftly unfolded the ancient scroll, and instantly, a massive wave of shocking fluctuation swept out. Beams of light shot forth from the scroll, projecting a thousand-foot phantom. freewēbnoveℓ.com

This phantom was a gaunt elderly figure, but the aura emanating from him was incredibly formidable.

"Is that... the Supreme Elder?"

Sikong Wuji and the others narrowed their eyes in surprise. This gaunt elder was none other than their Supreme Elder, whom they had once been fortunate enough to meet.

"Swish!"

No sooner had the shadow taken shape than it raised a palm and pointed a finger, instantly tearing through space and, under the watchful eyes of many, ferociously slamming into the enormous Light Seal.

Boom!

An immense explosion, mingled with wildly violent fluctuations, crazily spread from the sky above. Some of those closer to the combat area were even sent flying by the shockwaves, ending up in utter disarray.

Crack!

As the fluctuations spread, everyone could see cracks suddenly appearing on the surface of the vast Light Seal, and then, with a resounding crack, it exploded.

Hmph!

As the Light Seal burst, Tian Yin also let out a muffled grunt, his face turned pale, and for the first time, a flash of fear crossed his eyes...

Thud!

Tian Yin’s body plummeted like a meteorite, fiercely crashing into a small hill and shattering it completely.

After executing that powerful strike, the shadow abruptly dissolved away, and simultaneously, the Heavenly Martial Map in Ye Xuan’s hands lost its inscriptions, turning into an ordinary object.

"With just one strike, Elder Xue managed to kill Tian Yin; how strong is he really?"

Ye Xuan had only intended to use the Heavenly Martial Map to injure Tian Yin, achieving a surprise effect, but he had not anticipated that it would end the fight directly.

Elder Xue’s strength was at least at the peak of the Fifth Grade Martial Saint, and perhaps even at the level of a Sixth Grade Martial Saint.

"Elder Tian Yin!"

The other three elders of the Emperor Xi Sect also changed their faces upon witnessing this scene. They hadn’t expected the Heavenly Martial Holy Land to provide this young man with such a formidable trump card, one which even managed to kill Tian Yin with a single hit.

Ye Xuan knew that sealing such a powerful strike within the scroll required high conditions—the scroll itself had to be crafted from several rare materials and require complex artifice. So, the value of this scroll was extremely high. Even if it could only seal one attack, that was enough.

After all, a one-hit kill, a strike powerful enough, was worth several attacks.

Bang!

Rubble suddenly burst forth as a figure explosively shot out from within it—it was Tian Yin.

However, Tian Yin now looked utterly disheveled and ragged, covered in blood, constantly spitting out blood filled with bits of flesh, clearly having sustained severe injuries.

"Elder Tian Yin, are you alright?!"

The other three elders of the Emperor Xi Sect hastily inquired.

"Damn it, to think there was a Heavenly Martial Map with a sealed attack. But the Heavenly Martial Map can only be used once. Once exhausted, it becomes useless. You three, two of you go and finish him off!"

Tian Yin’s face was somber as he said,

"Eliminate him? Wasn’t the Sect Leader’s order to capture him?" The three men exchanged glances, perplexed.

"Right now, there’s no time to worry about that. If he gets away, it’ll be even more troublesome. Anyway, the Sect Leader only wants to capture him to secretly kill him. We’re just skipping the middle step."

A sinister glint flickered in Tian Yin’s eyes. He understood the Sect Leader’s intent. To kill Ye Xuan in public would undoubtedly push the Emperor Xi Sect and the Heavenly Martial Holy Land to the brink of war. But claiming to take him back for interrogation was different. They could later find an excuse to kill Ye Xuan, and that would greatly minimize their troubles.

But at the moment, there wasn’t time to consider all that. If Ye Xuan escaped, their mission would be a failure, and capturing Ye Xuan alive was no easy feat.

"Alright!"

The three Elders nodded, gritting their teeth. One of them went to engage Sikong Wuji and his companions, leaving the remaining two to surge forward towards Ye Xuan.

"Just the two of you?"

Ye Xuan’s gaze darkened. It seemed the people of Emperor Xi Sect wouldn’t rest until he was dead. Yet without Tian Yin, these two men didn’t even merit his attention.

Drawing the Rain Saint Sword, a fierce gleam suddenly flashed across Ye Xuan’s eyes.

"Heavenly Injury Sword!"

A trace of bloodlust shone in Ye Xuan’s eyes, and in the next moment, he swung the Rain Saint Sword. An aura of deadly chill immediately pervaded the air around them.

"Such a sharp sword move!"

The pupils of the two Emperor Xi Sect Elders contracted, sensing danger. Yet, with no retreat possible, they had no choice but to muster their True Yuan to clash directly with Ye Xuan.

Two streams of True Yuan merged into a beam of light that shot forth, colluding with Ye Xuan’s sword light.

Hiss!

It sounded like ripping fabric as Ye Xuan’s sword light relentlessly tore through the beam of True Yuan.

Bang! Bang!

The terrifying sword light, carrying ferocious power, struck the two disastrously unprepared Elders like lightning. Low, muffled sounds rang out as both figures were sent reeling through the air, spraying blood along their path. Their energy swiftly diminished, clearly suffering severe injuries.

In one move, a complete defeat.

Everyone watching gasped in shock. Even two Third Grade Martial Saint Strong People working together were instantly and utterly vanquished by Ye Xuan...

"Even together, three people might not take down Ye Xuan. Two is too few."

Yuan Taiyi, who had crossed hands with Ye Xuan, knew well the extent of Ye Xuan’s strength. These two were simply no match, let alone capable of capturing him.

"Very good, since you all so desire my life, it seems I needn’t be courteous. If I kill several of you, it would likely severely weaken the Emperor Xi Sect, wouldn’t it?"

Ye Xuan’s gaze turned icy, a murderous intent flickered in his eyes as dragon wings unfolded behind him, sharp as a blade, tearing through space once more. The Rain Saint Sword, charged with an extreme cutting wind, cleaved towards Tian Yin and his companions. He appeared intent on making a killing blow to eradicate them all.

"You!"

The three, including Tian Yin, sensed the sudden viciousness in Ye Xuan’s attack and the murderous aura that came with it. Their faces paled with shock, clearly not expecting Ye Xuan would truly dare to strike them down.

"Retreat quickly!"

Tian Yin’s voice tinged with panic echoed out. However, they soon realized with pallid faces that the space around them had become slow as molasses, as if trapped in a quagmire, leaving them hardly able to move. All they could do was look up, helplessly watching that ferocious sword light descend like lightning.
