The Emperor Reigns Them All-Chapter 422 - The Sword
Chapter 422 The Sword
Li Ye found something useful after a period of observation.
The fighting style of the cultivators of the religion of God was particularly obvious. They were divided into two parts. One part fought in the front, charging forward and fighting the cultivators of the demon clan closely. The other part fought in the back, attacking the cultivators of the demon clan from afar by various techniques formed by black gases, like Yelv Abaoji.
The cooperation from near and far and the clear division of work were the fighting methods of the cultivators of the religion of God.
They paid great attention to covering up this trick in the battle. Sometimes, the cultivators, who fought in close combat, would launch long-range techniques, and the cultivators, who launched ranged attacks, would move around. It looked like they were fighting the cultivators of the demon clan back and forth, but this couldn’t escape Li Ye’s eyes.
In comparison, the fighting styles of the cultivators of the demon clan were not so distinct from each other. All of them could attack far and near.
In fact, not only the cultivators of the demon clan but also the cultivators in the whole Tang Empire were like this.
The fighting styles of both sides had obvious advantages and disadvantages. But what couldn’t be denied was that the structured attack from the other side made the cultivators of the demon clan suffer and have serious injuries, in the case that the strength of both sides was not much different, or even the cultivators of the religion of God had the upper hand.
This was just like when combined forces fought against a single force on the battlefield, the combined forces would definitely have an advantage.
Li Ye said to Red Boy, “Follow me closely, and then, let an elite team go to the northwest and stand by!”
When finishing speaking, Li Ye fixed his eyes on his target. His figure flashed. With the sword method of the Sword Qi Born Lotus, his movement speed increased dramatically. He passed two cultivators of the religion of God, who were struggling with him closely, and went straight to a group of cultivators of the religion of God, who were fighting long-ranged!
A cultivator of the religion of God, who was in the Ground Immortal Realm, was condensing a fireball like the inferno technique. Suddenly, he was cold all over, as if he had fallen into an ice cave. An indescribable danger enveloped him. Li Ye passed him and cut off his head with the Luke Sword before he gave up leading the inferno technique!
Seven or eight cultivators of the religion of God were launching ranged attacks and they were led by two cultivators in the Sky Immortal Realm. After Li Ye killed that cultivator in the Ground Immortal Realm, their expressions changed.
But these people were well-trained. As cultivators who fought afar, they knew that they were not good at close combat. If Li Ye got close to them, they would be in danger, so they dispersed immediately.
Li Ye looked cold. He drove the Dragon Qi into the Luke Sword and shouted in a low voice, “Step-by-step Lotus!”
Li Ye’s figure was once again blurred in the night sky before the cultivators of the religion of God, who launched ranged attacks, could distance him.
Streams of cyan light flashed in front of the cultivators of the religion of God, quick and sharp, full of explosive power.
The cultivators of the religion of God knew that the danger was coming. But when they saw the lotuses blooming in front of them, their Spiritual Qi flowed slowly, and their muscles were stiff and slow in reaction. Time was like eternal in an instant, and they had no way to deal with that.
When the lotuses withered, blood sprayed. Several cultivators in the Ground Immortal Realm and in the Spiritual Master Realm fell from the sky like dumplings, without vitality. Only two cultivators in the Sky Immortal Realm barely survived, but they were seriously injured, and their fighting abilities were greatly reduced.
They were keenly aware that the Spiritual Qi into their bodies with the Sword Qi was as violent as wild cattle and as overbearing as an emperor, stirring up the Spiritual Qi in their bodies to run around wildly.
When they were trying hard to suppress the Spiritual Qi in their bodies, they felt weak. At this moment, their fighting abilities were no different from that of the cultivators in the Ground Immortal Realm.
At this point, Red Boy, who followed Li Ye, wielded the Long-flames Sharp Spear and attacked them rapidly. Because of the seamless connection, they were stabbed to death.
The nearby cultivators of the religion of God were not easy to deal with. They shouted, “Stop them! Siege them!” At the same time, they sieged Li Ye.
When Li Ye fought just now, they were on alert. Although they couldn’t stop their companions from being killed, they could help quickly.
After fighting for a period of time, the cultivators of the religion of God found that the strongest opponents were Li Ye and Red Boy. Now that they were together, they would certainly surround and kill them at all costs.
But at this moment, a group of seven or eight cultivators of the demon clan rushed over.
They were led by two cultivators in the Sky Immortal Realm, and the other six were in the Ground Immortal Realm, so their strength could not be underestimated. As soon as they joined the battle, they broke through a passage and disrupted the siege of the cultivators of the religion of God.
Li Ye shouted at Red Boy in a low voice, “What are you waiting for? Burn them!”
After coordinating with Li Ye, Red Boy wanted to break out of the encirclement through the passage broken through by the cultivators of the demon clan with him. But after hearing Li Ye’s words, he suddenly found that Li Ye didn’t intend to transfer, which confused him.
Fortunately, Red Boy and Li Ye had been partners for a long time, so he was used to following Li Ye’s arrangement, and they cooperated very well. Although he was confused, he immediately launched the True-fire of Samadhi without hesitation toward a large number of cultivators of the religion of God, who came from three sides.
The fire clouds instantly covered an area with a radius of more than 1,000 feet, enveloping the cultivators of the religion of God who rushed over. At this time, the True-fire of Samadhi showed its effect in the group attack.
When Red Boy chased a person and burned him, he might run away, but now that the other side rushed over, they were like running into the sea of fire.
The cultivators of the religion of God suffered casualties and whined one after another. At least, more than a dozen people were injured.
At this time, Li Ye stopped fighting and narrowed his eyes slightly.
As he continuously launched powerful sword methods, there was only a little Spiritual Qi left in his Ocean of Qi. After all, he wasn’t in the Immortal Realm, and he didn’t have the Immortal Area to supply the Spiritual Qi. He didn’t have enough staying power.
At present, there was only about one-third of the Spiritual Qi left in his Ocean of Qi. If he couldn’t turn the tables and win quickly in the following fight, he might not be able to retreat.
But at this time, Li Ye was calm, and he smiled.
Because of his and Red Boy’s fierce attacks and the continuous support of the cultivators of the demon clan, more and more cultivators of the religion of God were rushing over, almost one-third of their current fighting power!
While they kept their distance and carefully avoided the True-fire of Samadhi, they were preparing to launch a joint attack.
In their opinion, Li Ye was surrounded tightly and couldn’t escape. Although Red Boy’s fire clouds were protecting him, the fire clouds couldn’t exist all the time. Therefore, this was the best opportunity for them to defeat the other side and solve the battle by gathering high-level combat power.
In the distance, Yelv Abaoji was protected by the cultivators of the religion of God in front of him and many nearby masters, but now he was exposed, giving Li Ye an opportunity.
It was said that in order to defeat the enemy, one must capture the chief first. As long as Li Ye broke out of the encirclement, he was sure that he could kill or wound Yelv Abaoji.
But now, there were more and more cultivators of the religion of God in front of him. Even if he launched the sword method, he couldn’t get that far. And his Spiritual Qi was not enough to launch sword methods successively
What should he do now?
Li Ye had a plan in his mind.
He attracted the cultivators of the religion of God to come here, so he certainly had a plan.
It was simple.
“Go all out to launch the True-fire of Samadhi and prepare to attack Yelv Abaoji!” Li Ye secretly sent a signal to Red Boy. He put his sword vertically in front of his eyebrows with a serious look. He instantly launched the cultivation method of Purple Clouds from the East and shouted in a low voice, “Purple Qi Sword Tide!”
A huge purple light column suddenly rose from the Luke Sword, straight into the sky, connecting heaven and earth.
When the light column reached the sky, it suddenly exploded, and the Spiritual Qi spread like water. The purple Qi around the edge scattered like fireworks, filling the sky and covering stars. It immediately turned into clouds.
Under the moonlight, purple clouds were no different from black clouds. And Red Boy’s red fire clouds were under the black clouds, adding radiance and beauty to each other, majestic and grand.
A huge sword-shaped mountain of Qi suddenly rose from the purple clouds, like a Buddha raising his head in the sky, majestic and overbearing.
“Fall!” Li Ye said a word.
The huge sword immediately fell. When it passed through the purple clouds, it turned into countless small flying swords.
At this moment, the Sword Qi was pouring like rain.
The cultivators of the religion of God inside or outside the fire clouds were blocked by the fire clouds and couldn’t see Li Ye launching the sword method. When they felt a change above their heads and looked up in shock, they saw the flying swords pouring like rain all over the sky.
At this point, it was too late for them to dodge.
The flowing light of the Sword Qi fell into the cultivators of the religion of God, shooting like flowers in the storm.
The Sword Qi and the defensive techniques collided with each other, exploding into small clouds of Luck. The Sword Qi pierced through the Spiritual Qi Shield, causing explosive sounds to incessantly linger on, like firecrackers. The Sword Qi pierced the cultivators’ bodies, causing blood to splash like ink.
The blood and the Spiritual Tides added radiance and beauty to each other. The Sword Qi and the cultivators flew together. The sea of fire and techniques swept in all directions.
This scene stunned Yelv Abaoji, and he even stopped condensing techniques.
Not only him, but also the surrounding cultivators of the religion of God and the demon clan were distracted for a second when they saw this.
The cultivators of the religion of God, who were in the Spiritual Master Realm, would be seriously injured by a stream of Sword Qi. Actually, almost everyone was pierced by several or a dozen streams of Sword Qi. So none of them survived.
When facing such powerful Sword Qi, the cultivators in the Ground Immortal Realm were also seriously injured.
Only the cultivators in the Sky Immortal Realm could protect themselves from countless flying swords and didn’t suffer a fatal blow. But there were a lot of wounds on their bodies, and they were entangled.
How many of them were in the Sky Immortal Realm in total?
In the chaotic battlefield where the Sword Qi was shooting and the Spiritual Qi was exploding, a person in black suddenly rushed out like the light. Passing through the fire clouds, the Spiritual Tides, and the crowd, he went straight to Yelv Abaoji.
Yelv Abaoji suddenly felt cold in his heart with bristling hair. The smile and excitement on his face completely disappeared at this moment!
He could hardly see that person’s track, but he knew that Li Ye was coming.
There were only four people around him at this moment, and they were all in the Ground Immortal Realm.
When Li Ye rushed out of the sea of fire and the Spiritual Tides, he didn’t glance at the cultivators of the religion of God, who scattered like birds and yellow leaves. And now, no one could stop him in time.
Under the bright Milky Way and stars, Li Ye wielded his sword toward Yelv Abaoji. The cyan light reflected the mountains and the Great Wall into the blue.
All the cultivators of the religion of God far or near widened their eyes in horror. They saw the Sword Qi cutting Yelv Abaoji, but they could do nothing but watch.
The sword was fast and domineering, full of irresistible will.
Without reservation, Li Ye almost injected all the Spiritual Qi in his Ocean of Qi into this sword.
As a result, the dragon’s roar pierced through the night sky.
In the sky above the bodies of soldiers of the Tang Empire, the Sword Qi cut Yelv Abaoji, who launched the defensive technique.
The earth trembled and the mountains swayed. The sky was eclipsed
When the sword fell, all the cultivators saw nothing else.
The sword light was so bright that people could see nothing. When it dissipated, everything seemed to be quiet.
All the cultivators could only see Li Ye standing on the Great Wall with his long sword in his hand and his clothes fluttering.
No one knew where the four cultivators of the religion of God, who were in the Ground Immortal Realm, had gone.
In front of him, the barracks in the border were in ruins, and a huge deep pit appeared out of thin air.
Yelv Abaoji knelt in the middle of the deep pit with disheveled hair and his clothes destroyed. Blood spread under his body, incarnadining the loess of the border of the Tang Empire.
This sword ended the battle.
