Evil Venerable of the Sword Dao
Chapter 754 - 178: Kill the Demon King, Slay the Holy Daughter
CHAPTER 754: CHAPTER 178: KILL THE DEMON KING, SLAY THE HOLY DAUGHTER
The cold wind blew, and the snowflakes danced.
Suddenly, there was silence between heaven and earth.
Amidst the cold wind, the Cold Wind Demon King stood arrogantly aloof, disregarding Zhou Yan with a chilling murderous intent in his eyes and his body bursting with Sword Qi.
Eagles are naturally solitary monarchs among birds. And the lineage of the cold eagle is the most prestigious lineage among the eagle kings.
His strength was only slightly inferior to that of Gles. Hence, after Zhou Yan declared he could defeat him in three moves and the Cold Wind Demon King laughed and rebuked it, all the Cultivators fell silent.
Even the White Cloud Saintess stopped speaking.
She stared at Zhou Yan as if she wanted to see through him and discover what other abilities the Lei Yan King had in this lifetime.
Unfortunately, if Zhou Yan did not want to be seen through, no one could accomplish it. Even the Xuanyuan Ancestor could no longer comprehend him, let alone others?
These individuals were indeed outstanding figures, but Zhou Yan had seen too many exceptional people. When he was the Lei Yan King, he could swallow an entire Life Ancient Star in one breath. What significance did these mere outstanding figures hold?
Zhou Yan knew he no longer possessed the Lei Yan King’s power, at least not his capabilities.
But he retained the pride of the Lei Yan King.
Humans shouldn’t be arrogant, but they must not lack backbone.
"Just me! I alone am enough! Of course, you alone against me, but I alone am more than enough against just you."
Zhou Yan’s demeanor was indifferent, treating the Cold Wind Demon King’s murderous aura as nothing. He had never been afraid of imposing auras. Moreover, using intimidation in front of his current Emperor Qi Sword Body was as futile as trying to shake a tree with pebbles, laughably overestimating oneself.
"You’ve made too many jokes. It’s better if you just make your move! Otherwise, you won’t even have the chance to attack."
The Cold Wind Demon King sneered, struggling to contain his desire to kill.
For someone whose nature was truly calm and stable to be unable to suppress his urge to kill showed just how intense his hatred was for the person he wanted to execute.
"As I’ve said, one person against you is enough!"
With a thought from Zhou Yan, the Thunderhawk Sword Soul, which had been retracted earlier, flew out of his body.
The Thunderhawk Sword Soul roared, its body enveloped in endless Thunder Light. The Thunderhawk Sword Soul did not manifest any other sword body constitution but simply a pure Thunderflame Sword Body.
Thunderflame Sword Body, Thunderhawk Sword Soul, Rune Purple Flame, and Void Thunder Tribulation.
These were already more than enough.
"Hmm?"
Upon witnessing the emergence of the Thunderhawk Sword Soul, the Cold Wind Demon King’s face suddenly darkened, his previous mocking and disdainful demeanor vanishing completely.
Because he couldn’t afford to take it lightly anymore.
As a member of the Eagle Clan, facing the Thunderhawk Sword Soul, his Bloodline and Soul were in fear, a sign that the opposition’s Bloodline was more noble than his.
The Cold Wind Demon King didn’t want to admit it but had no choice but to acknowledge this fact.
Meanwhile, Zhou Yan’s true body remained motionless, merely sending an Avatar to confront the Cold Wind Demon King.
Thunderhawk Sword Soul, facing off against the Cold Wind Demon King.
However, Zhou Yan took a step forward, locking eyes with the White Cloud Saintess, and said, "White Cloud Saintess? Come forth. I will also take you down in three moves. Today, you shall suffer defeat right here and come to understand, the Lei Yan King has never been weaker than anyone!"
As Zhou Yan spoke, his figure shook, and the Divine Monkey Sword Soul flew out from within him.
The Divine Monkey roared, manifesting its invincible presence, its body shimmering with golden light and its eyes gleaming. The effects of the Nine Orifice Exquisite Heart were fully activated on it, seeming to see through all illusions.
In its hands, the Devil Suppressing Stick was swung, creating a terrifying sound, its presence unmatched.
As the Divine Monkey Sword Soul emerged, even the Cold Wind Demon King’s face paled.
The Thunderhawk was fearsome, but the presence of the Divine Monkey Fierce Beast was even more terrifying.
Only the lineage of Fierce Beasts could sense the fearsome nature of such an innate Combat Body constitution.
"Heart Demon, is it the Heart Monkey? Have you tamed the Heart Monkey and transformed it into a Sword Soul? Indeed, not bad! But if that’s all you’ve got, you are destined to fail today!"
The White Cloud Saintess said coldly, with a snort, her skirt fluttering as she stepped into the Void and pressed towards Zhou Yan.
The Cold Wind Demon King invoked an Ancient Array from all around, drawing the Power of Heaven and Earth to create a binding net aimed at trapping the Thunderhawk Sword Soul, seeking to Soul Refine it within a Rune Ancient Array.
The White Cloud Saintess, aware of the challenging opponent, directly summoned an Ancient Divine Weapon, a spear that pressed down upon the Sky Dome, intending to pierce and pin the Divine Monkey Sword Soul in the Void with her unstoppable might.
"So you’ve mastered the Soul Cutting Skill? You have indeed made a name for yourself, but it’s still not enough! Dying by this Ancient Divine Weapon, you can die without regrets."
The White Cloud Saintess spoke with an icy voice.
Her spear shook suddenly as if piercing through the Void, launching a deadly assault, carrying the force of ten thousand jun, unrivaled.
Zhou Yan’s gaze narrowed, a light passing through his eyes, and then the Divine Weapon rushed towards the Divine Monkey Sword Soul.
The Divine Monkey Sword Soul’s eyes flashed with light, its mind linked with Zhou Yan’s. But at that moment, it suddenly raised the Devil Suppressing Stick into the Void.
The Devil Suppressing Stick instantly grew immensely large, like a pillar supporting heaven, completely shielding the Divine Monkey Sword Soul’s body.
Not just that, as the Devil Suppressing Stick grew, ancient oracle bone script appeared on it, emitting an eerie glow.
"Buzz—"
The Divine Weapon struck the Devil Suppressing Stick and was rebuffed as if striking the impenetrable barrier of the Void. Instead of any effect, the massive recoil shook the White Cloud Saintess to the core, fracturing her skirt from the impact.
The scene brought dead silence to the area, accompanied only by a wave of astonished gasps.
White Cloud Saintess’s pretty face flushed red, but it immediately turned even colder.
"Shameless, despicable!"
White Cloud Saintess shouted angrily, while her figure flashed, and she immediately donned a phoenix-feather Ni Chang Sha Qun Battle Armor.
The massive Devil Suppressing Stick before the Divine Monkey Sword Soul instantly shrank, falling into the hands of the Sword Soul like a whip, and with a fierce swipe as if splitting the heavenly vault, he struck with invincible might, twisting the Void and shattering the snowy mountains.
White Cloud Saintess put up a strong resistance, Divine Weapon blocking, yet she was smashed with one hit, and with a "puh" sound, the Divine Weapon broke into two halves, falling into the Void and exploding into dust in midair.
The momentum of the Devil Suppressing Stick didn’t decrease, and it thundered down on White Cloud Saintess’s head. The Soul Crystal Jade Hairpin on her head burst forth with a blindingly bright radiance, blocking this strike momentarily, but it also shattered.
White Cloud Saintess’s black hair unfurled like a waterfall, spreading messily, her disheveled appearance unbecoming, yet it made her seem even more enchanting.
Her expression was cold, and the corners of her mouth were already overflowing with eye-catching, bright red blood, and her whole body trembled violently.
But she spat out a great mouthful of blood mist, and War Qi enveloped her. Instantly, she derived the Supreme Dao of Yin and Yang, unleashing an aura like that of Tai Chi.
This aura seemingly fixed time and space, transcending the rules, and surprisingly, it struck out instantaneously, abandoning the Divine Monkey Sword Soul and instead aiming to kill Zhou Yan’s physical head.
At the same time, Thunderhawk Sword Soul displayed the Thunder God Fire Sword Dao, crushing the blockade of the Cold Wind Demon King in one go, and instead trapped the arrogant and presumptuous Cold Wind Demon King. With a powerful strike, he unleashed a Thunder God Fire Sword Dao derived from Xingyi Swordsmanship and simultaneously issued a Tai Chu Rune Purple Flame.
Silent Annihilation Purple Flame, Thunder Control Divine Dao.
In an instant, the Cold Wind Demon King was left completely powerless to fight back and was struck through the body with one hit. The Divine Body exploded, nearly dying instantly.
But in a flash of light, time and space changed, and the Cold Wind Demon King, just like switching his form, replaced his real body with a weak, unknown Void Soul, so that in an instant, that frail Void Soul exploded to death, and he managed to escape.
The first move.
The Cold Wind Demon King was extremely disheveled by the first move.
But the Cold Wind Demon King was no longer presumptuous and didn’t even think about anything else. He only wanted to give it his all, to withstand the remaining two strikes!
The strength of Lei Yan King was beyond the Cold Wind Demon King’s expectations.
If it weren’t for the supreme escape technique "Teleportation," he wouldn’t have been able to handle the first move!
The Cold Wind Demon King considered himself only a step behind Gles, and even with the realm suppression in such a place, he would never fail to withstand three moves from Lei Yan at the same realm level!
He was shocked in his heart, and he could hardly believe it, but he dared not think any further because he couldn’t afford to be distracted!
"Hmm? He actually withstood the first move? Interesting."
Thunderhawk Sword Soul smiled indifferently, regarding all lives in the world with detachment.
His figure moved and he soared into the sky, surrounded by Thunderflame, his Qi and blood raging like madness.
Thunderhawk Sword Soul was bathed in endless thunder and lightning, and suddenly, he roared to the sky, and in an instant, Thunder Control Divine Flame Sword Dao’s Soul-locking Power appeared.
Then, Thunderhawk Sword Soul unleashed the Soul Cutting Skill derived from Supreme Water Swordsmanship after undergoing Transformation.
A force of Soul Slash swept out, silencing Heaven and Earth, as various soul auras of loneliness, despair, desolation, pain, life, and death instantly pervaded the surroundings. With this move, not only was the Cold Wind Demon King instantly stunned, his brain blank,
even the equally murderous White Cloud Saintess was momentarily dazed.
In that instant, it was as if everyone had entered Lei Yan King’s ’inner world,’ a desolate wasteland, filled with intense emotions of loneliness, desolation, suffering, confusion, and more, that violently shook one’s spirit and soul.
"It’s over."
Zhou Yan murmured to himself.
From within his body surged a wave of Emperor Qi Dragon Transformation, engulfing White Cloud Saintess’s Tai Chi Killing Tao, instantly converting it into his own energy, while at the same moment, Thunderhawk Sword Soul summoned the Tai Chu Heavenly Tribulation.
A Giant Axe man suddenly descended, his axe blow creating a Heaven Creation operation, issuing the Pan Emperor Heaven Creation Tribulation.
With a single axe strike, the Cold Wind Demon King’s eyes bulged like a dead fish, unwilling to die under the giant axe, turning into dust, and ultimately meeting his demise, his God and Body Annihilated.
If there wasn’t a Void Soul left outside, or other bloodline remnants, Cold Wind Demon King would have likely disappeared from all planes forever.
And even if he still had a Void Soul or even a True Soul outside, being killed by the Tai Chu Heavenly Tribulation would mean his strength suffered a massive blow, and without decades or even centuries of tough cultivation, recovery would be difficult.
At the same moment.
In the hands of the Divine Monkey Sword Soul, the Devil Suppressing Stick suddenly became extraordinarily sharp, and it thrust forward into the Void with force.
In that instant, the Devil Suppressing Stick suddenly elongated, piercing through the center of White Cloud Saintess’s body, shattering her Ni Chang Feather Robe and impaling her on the Devil Suppressing Stick.
"A Saintess? I enjoy insulting a Saintess the most! But you don’t qualify!"
Divine Monkey Sword Soul sneered coldly as the Devil Suppressing Stick in his hand erupted with unmatched power, shattering all of the Ni Chang Feather Robe Combat Armor.
But as White Cloud Saintess’s complexion turned deathly pale, she instantly detonated her Soul, escaping Divine Monkey Sword Soul’s impending Killing Spirit Divine Dao, and self-destructed, dying and destroying her own body and Soul to avoid dishonor.
"You’ve humiliated me like this. One day, I will slay you ten thousand times to vent the hatred in my heart!"
A Soul Pearl flew out like a Mysterious Female bead, bursting forth with dazzling Guanghua, suddenly shooting towards the distance, while transmitting a voice filled with resentment.
"Trying to escape? Die!"
Zhou Yan was prepared, a missed first attempt would not happen a second time, and Thunderhawk instantly unleashed Lock Soul Power of the Thunder Control Divine Flame Sword Dao. The Pan Emperor’s Heaven Creation Tribulation-summoned Giant Axe man in the same moment, chopped down directly.
"A splat—"
The axe strike was extremely violent, directly shattering the Soul Pearl and splitting mountains and rivers, causing the Ancient Ice Glacier to collapse.
The Mysterious Female bead-like Soul Pearl instantly shattered, and a torrent of fresh red blood gushed forth, engulfing this area of Heaven and Earth in an instant like a surging wave.
In an instant, Heaven and Earth became utterly chaotic.
