BXBX NOVEL Chapter 342: God Devouring All Things
Chapter 342: God Devouring All Things
The young man before her, with eyes red as blood, seemed both a divine being and a ferocious demon!
It had to be noted that the Life Bane Sword Soul and Heaven Burial Sword Soul had a strangely similar appearance!
It was no surprise as the Ku Family that Qingzan hailed from was known for their Sword Dao of Death.
Her sword, though vibrant in appearance, was a blade that plundered life.
The Life Bane Sword Soul\'s grade wasn\'t originally this high. Only after Qingzan was married off to the Calamity Seal Purgatory did she acquire treasures from the Inscription Cultivators and elevate her Sword Soul to Upper Ignis grade, just a step below the grade of the Talisman Emperor\'s Sovereign Sigil.
And now, the Life Bane Sword Soul met its match!
Qingzan was oblivious to the terror of the Heaven Burial Sword Soul. Her Heaven Sanctuary Realm sacred power was robust, and the 9,000 layers of Sword Aura on her blade were no joke!
"You brat, dare to play an Immortal?" With a cold smirk, Qingzan swung her Life Bane Sword Soul, her Palm Sword technique blooming into a cyan lotus!
Withered Spirit Sword Canon, Nirvana Lotus!
Her sword technique, unlike other members of the Ku Family, had a lush, spring-like quality. Yet where her Nirvana Lotus touched, even rocks and dust withered and were drained!
Such a strike, aimed at Yun Xiao\'s head, demonstrated the high skill of the future Sword Warden of the Sword Ruins, her sword sealing off all escape!
Just now, Mu Dalong had been defeated by this very move, her Sword Soul nearly shattered, her body marked with wounds.
Facing this attack, Yun Xiao\'s eyes held only cold indifference. In a flash, he charged into Qingzan\'s sword technique, his azure sword pointing forward, unleashing a Nirvana Lotus of his own!
This Nirvana Lotus, smaller than Qingzan\'s, took the form of a delicate azure lotus, appearing even more exquisite!
BUZZ! Simultaneously, from Yun Xiao\'s brow, the Prison Warden Sigil transformed into a Dao Dragon, coursing through his body. The violet dragon merged with his Mortal Dust Blood Vessels, giving his skin an eerie, otherworldly appearance!
As Yun Xiao thrust his sword, the Runes of the Prison Warden Sigil and the empowered blood vessels on his skin violently intertwined, morphing into ghostly, vine-like patterns of vivid flowers!
A blood-red rose bloomed gloriously upon him!
A technique from the Blood Devil Shrine, the Blood Devil Rose, surged from within him, flowing along his sword and amplifying the Nirvana Lotus!
The mingling of crimson and azure, the overlapping of swordsmanship and blood arts, the fusion of the Heaven Burial Sword Soul and the Prison Warden Sigil, culminated in a piercing strike!
Yun Xiao unleashed the mightiest swordplay ever seen. A strike both delicate and deadly, with flowers dancing in the air, an epitome of unparalleled beauty!
Under the gleam of the sword light, Qingzan\'s full-powered Nirvana Lotus was suddenly engulfed and torn apart. Yun Xiao\'s strike hit her sword, creating a thunderous explosion!
BOOM! Qingzan might have had the upper hand in sacred power, but she was utterly outclassed in terms of swordsmanship and raw power.
"Huh?" At the moment of collision, Qingzan\'s grip shattered, and she was sent flying like a kite with its string cut. Her Life Bane Sword Soul wailed and fractured in three places!
THUD! She crashed to the ground, rolling several times, her magic armor splitting open, drenched in blood!
"Monster...!" Qingzan\'s face turned ashen, nearly suffocating. Facing a youth not yet eighteen, with such overwhelming strength, she began to consider that he might actually be a reincarnated true Immortal.
Mu Dalong watched in utter shock as the once indomitable Qingzan was completely overpowered by Yun Xiao.
"Exile Yun!" Qingzan\'s heart stirred. She suddenly got up and knelt down, respectfully saying, "I was blind before, and now realize my actions were ignorant and laughable. Please, give me and the Calamity Seal Purgatory a chance to repent and serve you!"
"Stand up." Yun Xiao, holding the Heaven Burial Sword Soul, approached her coldly. "I don\'t wish to kill a kneeling person, but if you insist on staying down, I will do it anyway."
Qingzan, trembling with despair, pleaded, "The conflict of the Nine Hells will only bring more suffering to the mortal world. If you care for the living, spare us this once!"
"Spare your granddad." Yun Xiao\'s gaze swept over Mu Dalong\'s injuries, his anger unabated.
Now, she knew fear? Apologizing after causing harm? It was too late! Only a fool would accept that. And who knew if Qingzan\'s repentance was genuine? Once the Talisman Emperor arrived, she might just start hopping around again!
Yun Xiao, with his robe fluttering, sliced through the void with his sword!
"You murderous fiend!" Qingzan felt his murderous intent and couldn\'t pretend any longer! She leaped up, her Life Bane Sword Soul transforming into a six-foot Sovereign Sword, furiously attacking Yun Xiao!
Sovereign Sword Technique, Birth of All Things!
From Rootless Grass to Nirvana Lotus, and now Birth of All Things, these were the Ku Family\'s ultimate sword techniques. Qingzan, standing on her giant sword, fought fiercely. With one strike, all things came to life!
But in the Ku Family\'s philosophy, the fate of all life was death!
Only with the passing of life could there be a rebirth. So, with this strike, sweeping through the alley, she brought death!
"Sovereign Sword?" Yun Xiao loved using his enemy\'s best techniques against them!
He lightly stepped onto his sword, standing on Heaven Burial, also invoking Birth of All Things. Where his sword passed, an azure storm raged, even more violent! And behind him, a huge white vortex suddenly appeared!
This was the second demon magic of Moon FairyGod Devourer.
God Devouring All Things!
As the raging vortex spun, all things were destroyed, Yun Xiao\'s sword strike was completely unstoppable!
Within this, Yun Xiao even added a touch of Moon Fairy\'s fox demon illusion magic, causing Qingzan to see her deceased children, Fu Die and Fu Longxiang, within the white vortex...
BOOM! A clash of Sovereign Swords, the fiercest duel among Sword Cultivators!
It was either life or death!
At the moment of collision, cracks had already spread all over Qingzan\'s Sword Soul.
"No!" A cry of despair, unable to stop her Life Bane Sword Soul from shattering into pieces, and even less able to stop Heaven Burial from piercing her chest, driving her corpse forward several hundred meters!
A whole body, gruesomely ground against the cobblestones of the floor, from feet to head, leaving a trail of bloody froth on the shattered stones!
In the end, only a ghastly head remained, eyes wide with despair and fear, staring at Yun Xiao. Her face, forever frozen in that most tragic moment.
"Heaven\'s path was open, but you chose not to walk it; hell\'s gate was closed, yet you insisted on entering." Yun Xiao stepped off his Sovereign Sword, smoothly retracting Heaven Burial into his body.
He turned to face Mu Dalong.
There she stood, at the corner, her lips slightly parted, seemingly oblivious to her own wounds.
Mu Dalong\'s eyes lingered on Qingzan\'s head on the ground, her expression a mix of shock and fascination.
Then, she witnessed Yun Xiao\'s body split into three! To his left appeared the fox demon Moon Fairy, and to his right, a mass of blood returned to the body of the War Princess.
The War Princess\'s voluptuous form swiftly regained its allure, making even Mu Dalong feel a tinge of envy.
"Wow!" Mu Dalong was at a loss for words. Her entire worldview had been shaken.
"Keep it a secret," Yun Xiao instructed, looking into her eyes.
"Okay," she nodded, like a chick pecking at grains, her expression one of youthful bewilderment.
"Let\'s head back and tend to your wounds." As Yun Xiao spoke, he picked up Qingzan\'s head. Clearly, he intended to make a bold statement to those who had stirred trouble today...
As he spoke, Moon Fairy promptly left, while the War Princess, noticing someone else present, muttered a complaint, "You could\'ve warned me earlier. It hurt like hell. I thought I was a goner."
Yun Xiao simply gave her a stern look.
"Pfft, you act all tough, but you\'d hate to see me die," the War Princess retorted, pouting.
"Get lost," Yun Xiao said bluntly.
Noticing some movement in the distance and throwing one more annoyed glance at Yun Xiao, the War Princess turned and disappeared into the darkness, clearly reluctant to leave.
This whole scene left Mu Dalong utterly astounded.
"Exile Yun..." Mu Dalong stuttered.
"I told you, no more questions." As Yun Xiao spoke, he stepped onto the Heaven Burial Sword Soul, ready to fly off.
Mu Dalong mused softly, "You could be a bit nicer to the War Princess, you know. She seems quite smitten with you..."
"Her?" Yun Xiao grinned. "She\'s my little servant, here to serve me. No need for pleasantries."
"..." Mu Dalong was speechless. She couldn\'t help but imagine the little servant being harshly disciplined by Yun Xiao.
"Come on up," Yun Xiao suddenly said.
"Huh?" Mu Dalong was taken aback.
"Your Sword Soul has a crack. Let\'s find your father and get some spiritual items to nourish it," Yun Xiao instructed.
"Okay." Mu Dalong thought to herself, "How considerate..."
As she was still lost in thought, Yun Xiao swiftly maneuvered the sword, scooping her up in his arms and vanishing from the spot in an instant.
In the raging wind, Mu Dalong looked up at the young man\'s profile. She suddenly found herself reminiscing about her own youthful days.
If she had met Yun Xiao earlier, would things have been better? But then, thinking of her daughter, she realized that this young man was like an unattainable dream.
She decided not to dwell on it. She reached out, embracing the youth\'s waist, her cheek resting against his chest.
Yun Xiao did not push her away.
Soon, the two arrived at the Eight Trigrams arena.
Mu Dalong let go voluntarily, landing on the ground. Feeling as if her life was now complete, she smiled softly and looked up at Yun Xiao, saying, "Thank you."
"For what?" Yun Xiao asked.
"For giving me a brief, yet beautiful dream," Mu Dalong replied.
Yun Xiao paused, then said, "No matter where I go, I will always come back to the Nine Hells. My home is here."
"That\'s wonderful," Mu Dalong\'s eyes reddened slightly.
"Mhm." Yun Xiao smiled faintly and then walked past her.
News of the attempt on his life at the Radiance Palace had already been brought back by other Sword Cultivators! The arena was in chaos.
The Sword Warden had rushed back with a group to rescue him, only to find an empty scene. Unexpectedly, Yun Xiao had returned safely with Mu Dalong.
For a moment, there was dead silence!
Everyone\'s eyes were on him!
THUD! Yun Xiao stepped forward and threw a head onto the battle stage.
It belonged to a long-haired woman. At first, her hair covered her face, and no one knew who she was. But as she stopped rolling, her hair slid away, revealing a face frozen in terror...
