CHAPTER 360: CHAPTER 349: BEIDOU’S ECHOING VOICE, SOUTHERN DIPPER’S CHILLING SWORD LIGHT

"Liang Yi, how did you manage to provoke them, meow?" Uncle Orange could always deflect blame brilliantly, and while dodging around with Liang Yi, didn’t forget to dump the blame on his head.

Liang Yi casually blocked Liu Rouxin’s spear with his Immortal Sword Yuan Zhou, and after hearing Uncle Orange’s words, he considered whether he should just capture Uncle Orange and switch sides.

"Roar meow, roar meow!"

Although Uncle Orange spent his days mostly sleeping, his way of increasing his strength was through eating, drinking, and sleeping. The more he ate and the longer he slept, the faster his strength would grow.

If he really found a place to sleep for a thousand or eight hundred years before coming out, he might actually become one of the exceptional experts in the world.

Currently, Uncle Orange’s realm was roughly at the early stages of the Sixth Realm, similar to Liu Rouxin, but since Liu Rouxin was seriously injured and not yet fully recovered, it was really easy for Uncle Orange to deal with her.

Liu Rouxin also realized that she couldn’t do anything about that hateful young master of the Demon Clan, so after memorizing his face and glaring fiercely at Uncle Orange, she turned her spear towards Liang Yi instead.

Uncle Orange swiftly moved to Su Youyi’s side and together they started watching the excitement.

"Hey, you really think I’m an easy target," Liang Yi blinked with annoyance. He didn’t want to stoop to the level of this flat-chested firewood girl, but it somehow began to look like a never-ending tangle.

After Liu Rouxin once again turned an unknown Spirit Tree in the courtyard into debris with her spear, Liang Yi could no longer restrain himself.

"Clang!"

With the Immortal Sword unsheathed, the overwhelming Sword Qi forced Liu Rouxin back.

"That’s more like it! Being so timid and cowering, what kind of man are you!" Seeing Liang Yi draw his sword made Liu Rouxin even more excited. Her injuries were about healed, and she was just worried about not having an opponent to practice with.

Since Liang Yi had decided to teach the brat a lesson, he no longer held back. He couldn’t be bothered to waste words with this brainless, flat-chested lolita. The Immaculate Sword Technique was fully unleashed, transforming into a sky full of sword lights that spattered towards Liu Rouxin like splashed ink.

"Bring it on!" Liu Rouxin’s eyes gleamed, and the sharp Sword Intent burst forth, as if intending to pierce through the heavens.

Spiritual Energy crazily infused into both of their bodies from thousands of miles away, and the exploding storm of Spiritual Power forced onlookers Su Youyi and Uncle Orange to step back two paces.

"No issues with our Senior Brother, right?" Su Youyi was confident in her senior brother, but still somewhat worried that the two would fight with real fire and not be able to stop.

"Don’t worry, that kid won’t suffer a loss," Zhou Yuqing glanced over and pretty much estimated the outcome.

Hearing this, Su Youyi was relieved and looked towards the two who had moved their fight from the courtyard to the sky.

High up in the sky, Liu Rouxin’s hands were empty, the long spear hidden somewhere unknown, and behind her was a towering blood-red waterfall flowing down. Right now, her expression was serious as she focused on Liang Yi in front of her.

"Don’t dilly-dally, if you’re a man, decide the outcome with one move!" Liu Rouxin hated fighting back and forth without a result. What they of the Blood Control Sect liked was determining the outcome with one move.

There must only be one standing and speaking on the field!

Liang Yi held Yuan Zhou calmly, his clothes fluttering in the wind, with a nascent hint of a Sword Immortal’s elegance.

"Alright."

He was happy to get rid of this firewood girl’s entanglement sooner rather than later, and naturally he readily agreed to Liu Rouxin’s suggestion.

"Then come!" Liu Rouxin’s mouth cracked into a smile showing off her snow-white teeth, but the smile was thick with the scent of blood.

When Liu Rouxin made her move, the crimson waterfall behind her also started to sway, stirring the spiritual energy for thousands of miles. The heaven-reaching and earth-connecting crimson waterfall increased its flow abruptly, forcibly ingesting the spiritual energy from above and the earth energy from below into the Blood Sea to assimilate.

Behind Liu Rouxin, in the midst of the blood waterfall, a long spear gradually appeared, its light bursting forth to illuminate the skyline.

When the light was at its peak, Liu Rouxin grasped with her hand the Flow Map that had accompanied her through countless battles, piercing through everything. Liu Rouxin’s back slightly arched, readying herself to throw it.

As the Flow Map was held in her hand, the blood waterfall around it reversed as well, transforming into a millionfold enlarged long spear, pointing towards Liang Yi who was wrapped by six gleaming stars.

Tianfu, Tianliang, Heavenly Mechanism, Tiantong, Tian Xiang, Qisha!

It wasn’t as dazzling as the Beidou seven stars but has never extinguished in the sky.

It had been a long time since Liang Yi first used "Southern Dipper," a sword technique that originally emerged in a flash of Spirit Light. After absorbing a variety of insights, he had continuously perfected the technique, making it a truly golden skill deserving to be displayed on the skill panel!

Beidou’s echo resounded, while the Southern Dipper’s sword light was bitingly cold!

Although the crimson spear before him covered the sky and obscured the sun, it still couldn’t block the shining starlight.

And when the light of the six stars concentrated at the tip of the sword, Liang Yi then swung the sword gently without any trace of mundanity.

Down below, Su Youyi blinked, astonished to see the shadow of the Star Palace in her senior brother’s sword move, except it was only the convergence of the six Southern Dipper stars.

Boom—

The tip of the sword and the tip of the spear collided perfectly, and an endless burst of light and heat instantaneously spread throughout the entire Secret Realm! All the disciples of the Senluo Wanxiang Sect within the Secret Realm looked up, their eyes filled with shock as they watched the rising mushroom cloud.

The directional flow of spiritual power was completely disrupted on that side, even creating a vacuum zone for spiritual power! It was only after several breaths following the explosion that they heard the roaring sound of the blast arrive.

"What’s happening? Was there an earthquake?" atop the White Rabbit Palace, a disciple about to exchange some Spiritual Medicine and take on various planting missions was caught off guard by the violent shaking and almost fell over.

"Could it be the Devouring Spirit Sect launching a surprise attack?"

"The tremors seem to be coming from below, could it be that Palace Master Bai’s alchemy has caused the furnace to explode..."

All the disciples, unaware of the truth behind the sudden event, chatted animatedly and curiously.

Meanwhile, at the epicenter of the collision in the second layer of the Secret Realm.

Although Liu Rouxin was sent flying backward by Liang Yi’s sword strike, Liang Yi’s lower body was plunged into the mile-wide Blood Sea.

The Blood Sea churned, bubbling noisily, and a countless number of whispers started to echo vaguely next to Liang Yi’s ears.

Feeling his consciousness slipping the moment the whispers began, Liang Yi shut off his own hearing, but the whispering persisted unabated. Threads of blood as thin as lines appeared in Liang Yi’s Sea of Consciousness at some unknown time, clinging onto his Divine Soul like blood vessels, eroding deeper into his Divine Soul.

These were the resentful souls hidden within the Blood Sea wailing, able to reach the deepest parts of a person’s heart, and not something that could be fended off by ordinary means. Liu Rouxin had no intention of taking Liang Yi’s life, so she had held back with this move.

Fortunately for Liang Yi, his unconventional methods were much more numerous than the conventional ones!

In Liang Yi’s Sea of Consciousness, the ethereal shadow of Qinglian, the ancient green lantern, the vast halo, and the blood-colored Sword Intent had already detected the crimson lines as soon as they appeared. Shifting responsibility amongst each other for a moment, it was ultimately Qinglian that acted, bursting forth with Infinite Light, with the power of Vitality as lavish as if it cost nothing, washing over Liang Yi’s Divine Soul like a blanket.

After a few rounds, Liang Yi’s Divine Soul was scrubbed clean, any foreign matters completely gone.
