314: Chapter 56: Discerning Eyes Can’t See Through
“God?”
Tie Feng couldn’t help but laugh when he heard the word.
He looked disdainfully at the old man in the wheelchair and said with a sneering laugh, “All of us have died once, and you still believe in this…
Is your so-called ‘god’ a Yin God or a Yang God?”
Tiesuo Alley was silent.
In the midst of the fire.
The old man didn’t answer the question, just silently looked at the Great Demon in front of him.
Following her gaze.
The Li i gathered around the wooden house seed to no longer feel “fear”; everyone silently looked at Tie Feng, and in the stillness of silence, it was as if an invisible thought was converging in the alley.
Qing Li silently clenched her fists.
Aamong these Li i, she was the youngest, the one who knew the least…
She had never seen a god, but from the mont she beca conscious, she had heard many proclamations in Tiesuo Alley that “gods” exist.
She had always been very curious.
Where are the gods?
If there were truly gods, why didn’t they co earlier to save them from this place?
Now was the mont to verify “faith.”
All these years, everyone had survived under the guidance of Shan Man.
Shan Man had no reason to lie.
Shan Man was the kindest person to her and would never deceive her.
The little one took a deep breath and silently raised her head.
So…
Do gods really exist?
As long as one has enough trust, can they be seen?
…
…
The resentnts in the alley seed to solidify montarily, and after a short silence, a jarring crack sounded at the front of the wooden house.
“Crack!”
Tie Feng pulled out his long knife from his waist without expression.
One slash.
The chest of the old man sitting in the wheelchair burst into a spray of blood.
“??”
Qing Li was stunned, she looked at this scene in disbelief.
The alley was still quiet.
The blood dripped onto her cheek.
Plop.
Plop.
It fell to the ground.
“Where is your god?”
Tie Feng looked at the old man sitting in the chair and spoke sarcastically.
He deliberately held back with this slash, not taking the old man’s life, but leaving him barely alive.
“…”
The old man remained calm, silently bowing his head to look at his blood-drenched clothes.
Li i, though transford from resentnt, still felt pain.
And could die.
“I said…
where is your god?”
Tie Feng stood with his knife, waiting for a mont longer.
After that slash, the blood frightened the Li i, but Shan Man’s Divine Soul spread out, linking to the Heart Lake in each of them.
The alley did not descend into chaos.
Shan Man was still alive.
The Li i stood in front of the wooden house, their faces pale as ash.
“The god you speak of…
is it the ruler of this ancient country?”
Tie Feng glanced in the direction of the main city and said with a light laugh, “A monarch of a country that perished a thousand years ago, how much strength can remain from his grudge?
My prince is far more powerful than your so-called ‘god’.”
As his words fell.
The old man in the chair smiled lightly.
She opened her arms and earnestly said, “If you want to see ‘god’…
strike
down with another slash, kill , and you will get your wish.”
Tie Feng hesitated for a mont.
He suddenly realized what the old man had said earlier – that if he made a move here, he would die a terrible death.
So.
Did this old man truly have no intention of living?
His hand holding the long knife trembled slightly, slightly unsteady.
Tie Feng had already checked this place with his Divine Thought dozens of tis.
These Li i were very weak, not worthy of concern…
But the ancient country had perished a thousand years ago, and yet, they were still alive, and still possessed Spirit Wisdom.
Was this rely a bluff?
Or was there, sowhere in the unknown, a deity helping them?
“Trying to fool ?”
Tie Feng took a deep breath and sneered, “I want to see this god you believe in!”
Boom!
The second slash was unleashed, the Sword Qi roiled and lifted the entire sea of fire in the alley, a tidal wave of fury rolled over, pressing down with heat intense enough to lt away all in its path.
Shan Man’s Divine Soul kept the Heart Lake of all Li i calm.
Before death arrived.
Everyone felt the peace.
The majority closed their eyes…
Their “lives” were brought by Shan Man, they had clung on to existence in Tiesuo Alley, waiting for light and redemption.
If this was the end of life.
Then they were ready to face this ultimate conclusion.
But at that mont.
A streak of Sword Light flashed past.
A crisp ting resounded!
The Sword Qi collided with the Sword Light in front of the wooden house, like waves crashing in a boiling sea, suddenly receded, racing to the end of Tiesuo Alley where Xie Xuanyi landed in front of the wooden house’s array patterns, hand pressed to the ground, cascades of Sword Qi surging forth, fending off the Great Demon’s Demon Fire and Sword Qi―
An invisible barrier of Sword Qi rose from the ground.
All the Li i were shocked.
Qing Li’s palm was drenched in sweat.
“Mr.
Xie?”
Mu Niu, holding three Dragon Extinguishing Black Boxes, looked blankly at the figure descended from the skies and said with a trembling voice, “What are you doing back here?!”
“To help you kill soone.”
Xie Xuanyi spoke calmly, uttering a few words.
The Great Yue Kingdom should have perished long ago.
For so reason, these Li i were endowed with “life”.
Xie Xuanyi had spent a short ti with them, a period in his life that should have been trivial, rely an unremarkable experience.
But in his Second Life, Xie Xuanyi began to believe in the teachings of karma.
Plant a cause, reap an effect.
He had a connection with the Little Mute Girl Qing Li, and those Li i of Tiesuo Alley harbored no ill will.
Thus, these were good causes.
Sword Qi churned and surged, clashing against the sea of flas, neither yielding to the other.
This scene
rekindled hope in the Li is who had closed their eyes, prepared to embrace death.
“You…”
Shan Man’s entire body trembled as she looked at Xie Xuanyi with profound aning, her voice complex, “You shouldn’t have co back now.”
The old man clutched a pitch-black stone charm in his hand.
This stone charm was stained with fresh blood, and upon closer inspection, one could see that it was engraved with obscure and complex patterns.
At first glance, it greatly resembled the Dragon Extinguishing pattern on the black box, but many details…
were the opposite.
“Sorry, I should have co back sooner.”
Xie Xuanyi sighed lightly.
He understood what Shan Man ant by her words.
The old man possessed a pair of “perceptive eyes,” and surely she had seen that his own cultivation was only at the Cave Heaven Realm, while the Great Demon of Chi Ling City before them was a Half-step Yin God, having condensed the Tao Rules.
She was worried he was getting into trouble…
However,
there are so things that even “perceptive eyes” cannot see through.
Xie Xuanyi flicked a wisp of Undying Spring Water Vapor with his finger, sending it into Shan Man’s body.
“…?”
The old woman’s body shook, staring at the young man in disbelief.
What kind of technique was this?
In this world, there was such a technique?
The slash just now almost cleaved her body in two…
but under the healing of this strand of Qi, the bleeding stopped, broken bones began to grow, and they connected back together in just a few breaths.
To advance from the Cave Heaven Realm to the Yin God, one needed to condense one’s own “Tao Rules.”
The Dao of the world is like a gigantic tree.
Every Cultivator
could pluck their own “Dao Fruits.”
She knew that so great cultivators’ Dao Fruits were related to life force, and giving out a strand of their Tao Rules could allow soone to recover quickly…
but this young man was rely at the Cave Heaven Realm.
To be able to do this, it must not be related to the Tao Rules, which ant there was a high chance he possessed a precious treasure.
To use this technique right in front of that Great Demon?
“You young fellow…”
Tie Feng’s expression darkened, his brows furrowing as he scrutinized this black-clothed youth who had fallen from the sky.
Intelligence on the human Saint Heir.
The Demon Country also knew a bit about it.
After killing several cultivators from the Northern Hunt and searching their Devouring Souls, the information had been completed, yet Tie Feng found the youth before him sowhat unfamiliar.
Xie Xuanyi wore the Aspect of All Beings, which could change his appearance at will.
To see through the Aspect of All Beings,
one would need to be at the Divine Soul Realm, surpassing him.
Clearly,
Tie Feng could not do this.
However, he had no intention of hiding his identity.
“My surna is Xie, Xie Zhen,”
Xie Xuanyi spoke softly, “the new lord of the Xuanshui Cave Heaven at Da Sui Sword Palace.”
Just one sentence,
and Tie Feng’s pupils suddenly contracted, his expression changing drastically.
Lord Chi Wu had told him that several young geniuses from the Dachu Dynasty were participating in the Northern Hunt, from Taoist sects, Martial Sects, Qiantian Palace, Da Sui Sword Palace…
These geniuses were all at the Perfect Cave Heaven Realm, and if he could kill one, the reward would be no less than slaying a Yin God!
These human geniuses, although they were currently only at the Cave Heaven Realm, had powerful backers in their sects and were exceptionally talented.
Becoming a Yin God was just a matter of ti!
And…
Once they stepped into the Yin God Realm, they would not be the weak ones!
“Very good, very good!”
Tie Feng was overjoyed, “So you are Xie Zhen!!”
In the past nearly sixty years, who was the most hated young human cultivator in the Demon Country?
Undoubtedly Xie Xuanyi!
Xie Xuanyi had killed too many demons!
And now…
Xie Xuanyi suddenly had a disciple, and the Demon Country naturally sought revenge for any grudge, eager to converge upon the disciple, venting years of accumulated hatred and anger.
What a pity.
The intelligence they obtained from Devouring Souls indicated that Xie Zhen’s Cloud Ship had fallen before the Northern Hunt began.
Very likely,
this disciple from Da Sui had already dropped out of the Northern Hunt!
As the saying goes, no need to break iron shoes in fruitless searching; the effort cos without any pay!
But in the next instant, the smile on Tie Feng’s face suddenly solidified into stiffness.
A trace of golden light flashed from between Xie Zhen’s eyebrows.
Just for a mont,
this Cave Heaven youth was now right in front of him, the distance between them rely three feet.
Three feet,
the length of a Flying Sword.
Tie Feng felt an unprecedented intent to kill in his Heart Lake.
The Red Cloud Cave Heaven that lood above him poured out all its Tao Rules in an instant.
Nurous red clouds burst forth.
These incomplete principles transford into feathers, into arrowheads, aid directly at Xie Xuanyi’s head and shot down swiftly!
But…
they were still too slow.
A trace of golden light, swept out in an instant, shattering the Cave Heaven at close range.
Most of the ti,
when powerful beings clash, destiny is decided in a re instant!
The sa was true for incomplete Dao.
The strength of Tie Feng’s “Tao Rules” was simply no match for the “Rule of Destruction”…
In just one mont,
this seemingly towering and divine Red Cloud Cave Heaven was pierced by the golden light, then it exploded into pieces!
Tie Feng’s face turned as pale as paper, his body flying out as if struck by lightning.
With his Tao Rules shattered and his Cave Heaven broken…
The rampant sea of flas was instantly extinguished by the Sword Qi at that mont.
“Xie Zhen…
this strong?”
Mu Niu clutched the black box, disbelieving.
Had he really intended to compete with such a person a few days ago?
Shan Man, seated in the wheelchair, was stunned as well.
She stared blankly at Xie Xuanyi.
In that instant, the youth’s presence had completely broken through the Cave Heaven…
From beginning to end, what she had seen was not the “truth”, the youth had already condensed the “Dao”, but for so special reason, after the dispersion of the Dao, he did not condense it again.
Tiesuo Alley was restored to its previous silence.
Xie Xuanyi calmly watched the dust flying in the distance, holding his umbrella sword, and walked slowly towards it.
It had to be said, the “guards” that Prince Jiu brought were much stronger than the Death Soldiers from Resentful Ghost Ridge before, this fellow took a close hit from the Flying Sword and didn’t die, rely with his Cave Heaven shattered, still having the strength to struggle.
Given more ti to this Great Demon who had condensed the Tao Rules,
perhaps, he could have confird his path to becoming a Yin God.
Of course,
he would not give the opponent that ti.
