The sword was held in Yang Yan’s hand, as if he was holding not a sword, but merely a cluster of air.

The heavy footsteps echoed in the Buzhou Space.

"Tap tap tap..."

The sound came rhythmically.

Moreover, the sound amplified in the direction of Chiyou.

Zhuge Wushuang and Red Dust, receiving the order, flashed before Yang Yan without looking back.

Both kneeled on one knee, cupped their fists, and responded in unison:

"Yes! King!"

They showed no hesitation towards Yang Yan’s command.

Yang Yan’s slightly paused footsteps lifted once again.

Tap... tap...

"Ao Tian, you are heavily injured, leave the rest to me!"

Ao Tian stared at Yang Yan for a long while.

The current Yang Yan, even he couldn’t discern his level.

However, he could sense that Yang Yan had undergone an earth-shaking transformation, distinctly different from the previous Moonlight.

At least in terms of strength, it had definitely increased significantly.

He couldn’t help but give a bitter smile.

Even though he had his fair share of fortuitous encounters, he still couldn’t keep up with Yang Yan, the favored of the heavens!

Ao Tian dragged the blade in his hand, pacing towards Yang Yan slowly.

At this moment, Chiyou did not strike Zhuge Wushuang or Ao Tian who were preparing to leave the battlefield.

He gazed at Yang Yan, pondering over unknown thoughts, with dark glints flickering within his eyes.

"You’ve broken through? Truly miraculous!"

When Yang Yan approached him step by step, Chiyou finally expressed a hint of surprise.

However, he quickly put on a smile.

"I, am not gifted with anything else, just accustomed to breaking through amidst combat. So, how about it, are you scared?"

Yang Yan slightly raised his head, arrogantly staring at the ten-meter-tall giant before him, and sneered.

"Ha! If you think your breakthrough can change the big picture, then you are mistaken!"

Chiyou first let out a dismissive cold snort, then slightly bent over, earnestly speaking to Yang Yan in a deliberate tone.

"When I say something, I do it. Say I’ll slay a god, and I shall slay a god!"

Yang Yan raised his head, full of grandeur, showing no signs of retreat, instead brimming with the spirit of battle.

"Good! Then you shall die by me!"

The inherently hot-tempered Chiyou heard Yang Yan saying he would kill him once again; how could he remain calm and negotiate?

In his impulsiveness, he abandoned the axe, instead delivering a swift kick.

At such close distance, Chiyou’s kick covered a wide area.

If it were Ao Tian, he probably couldn’t dodge.

Yet, Yang Yan had no intention to dodge.

The energy ever-ready within his body was drawn by Yang Yan, surging wildly, roaring like a tide!

"Azure Vault Technique, Shattering Heaven!"

With one move, Yang Yan was unequivocal, unleashing the newest killer move he recently created.

Compared to the initial flaws and lack of proficiency, Yang Yan’s current certain strike had evidently reached a masterful level.

Whether it was Star Night or Yang Yan, in Chiyou’s eyes they were both insignificant.

But this sword, Star Night drew out a silver-white sword aura from the Void.

Initially just a white line, the sword aura gradually expanded into a crescent-shaped silver glow.

Then, when Chiyou’s kick came, the sword aura had already widened to over ten meters!

When they intersected, there was no imagined earth-shattering noise, nor the expected clash of metal.

There was only a shout following the sword’s resonance and a muffled crash.

"Ah!!"

Boom!

The unbalanced Chiyou tilted backwards, falling to the ground with a muffled thud.

Under the terrified gaze of a man with severed legs not far away, the sharp sword aura sliced off the foot that Chiyou kicked forward!

Just as Chiyou cut off his legs!

The severed foot by Yang Yan flew rapidly into the air, along with a massive stone axe crashing down not far from Chiyou.

From the wound, a massive spray of blood jetted out, fortunately, Yang Yan dodged quickly, thus avoiding being drenched all over.

As for the ten swords behind, along with Ao Tian, they were all shocked beyond measure.

Ao Tian, together with the ten swords and those Hidden World’s masters, could only inflict minor injuries on Chiyou.

Yet, Yang Yan, upon waking up, cut off Chiyou’s foot with one stroke!

Bear in mind, this was Demon God Chiyou, Half-Step Divine Realm, nearly crushed Ao Tian underfoot!

The fallen Chiyou visibly shrunk in size.

Immediately afterwards, a clump of demonic qi appeared at the wound where the foot was severed.

Yang Yan already knew without needing to watch that what would happen next.

Indeed, in just a moment, the severed foot reappeared on Chiyou’s leg, as if it had never been severed!

This wasn’t simply the strong self-healing ability of the Demon Race.

No matter how strong the body of the Demon Race was, it couldn’t restore a foot in such a short time.

Just like how Chiyou’s decapitated head didn’t regenerate!

Yang Yan actually knew very well, that Chiyou’s foot was merely a manifestation of pure demonic qi.

"You are the Moonlight Emperor? Alliance Leader of the Demon Suppression Alliance?!"

In mere moments, Chiyou figured out Yang Yan’s identity.

Although Yang Yan was previously beaten by him with no power to fight back, facts proved that this human before him was indeed the strongest being he encountered since breaking the seal.

"Yes, I am Yang Yan. If you go to the Underworld, remember to tell King Yama that the person who killed you was me."

For once, Chiyou wasn’t angered by Yang Yan’s arrogant words, but rather stood properly, not displaying an angry expression.

"You’ve broken through to Half-Step Divine Realm?"

Chiyou suddenly asked.

Yang Yan looked at him, coldly snickering:

"Previously, I was Emperor-level six, I merely broke through three levels in succession, reaching Emperor-level nine perfection, as for Half-Step Divine Realm?"

Yang Yan shrugged, saying with a smile:

"Do you think if I were Half-Step Divine Realm, you could still stand here talking to me? But actually, now it’s practically close."

Chiyou roared once more:

"Boy, just being Emperor-level perfection, you are extremely arrogant. If I regain my strength, you’ll be surely doomed!"

"I live, you die, that’s my word!"

Yang Yan raised Star Night, squinting at Chiyou, his face full of conceit:

"Spare the nonsense, today hundreds have died by your hand, and all were top tier experts from the Hidden World. What’s owed must be repaid!"

Having spoken, Yang Yan no longer gave Chiyou time to respond, once again unleashing Shattering Heaven.

Boom!

Accompanied by the sound of space tearing, the silver sword aura became terrifying in Chiyou’s eyes.

"Yah!"

The stone axe flew back into Chiyou’s hands, its sharp blade clashed directly with Star Night’s sword aura.

Bang!

The result of the collision was beyond Chiyou’s belief.

This sword aura was not only incredibly sharp but also tremendously powerful!

Its unstoppable momentum felt like lashes upon the stone axe.

Chiyou almost couldn’t hold his weapon, stumbling to barely remain standing.
