Su Youyi’s tattered robes still clung to her, and the eerie chill surrounding her seed to bypass mana defenses, directly affecting her body which had started to stiffen.
Tossing aside the broken sword in her hand, Su Youyi snatched the sword sheath floating beside her; this object was much more powerful than the Spirit Sword. The sword sheath, now held by Su Youyi, did not resist and tried its best to cooperate with her.
"Are you done speaking?"
The trembling mountain had ceased, and Cang Dong, whose Divine Soul had partially fused with his body, took a deep breath. It had been millions of years since he breathed fresh air, and this was his first taste of freedom in just as long.
"If your last words are finished, then allow to escort you on your final journey. Consider it my thanks for liberating from my seal!"
The mont his voice fell, Cang Dong disappeared from where he stood and punched down at the spot where Su Youyi and her companion had just landed, creating a hundred-ter crater with a thunderous boom.
It had been countless years since he experienced the sensation of having a body, and even though he could swiftly deal with them using Daoist Skill, he preferred not to; he wanted to relish the feeling of freely exerting his physical strength.
Cang Dong watched as Su Youyi and her companion attacked him in unison, calm and unhurried. With a simple wave of his hand, an ice halberd appeared, swinging with unstoppable might!
Although Yu Gejing had a mystic Array, and Su Youyi’s sword techniques were akin to those of a Heavenly Immortal, the two of them—one on the left and one on the right, one attacking from afar and the other up close—were powerless to advance further within three feet of Cang Dong.
The halberd, twice the height of a man, seed as exquisite and delicate as a needle in Cang Dong’s hands, its movents—thrusts, sweeps, and cleaves—effortless and never awkward.
He used only the most basic moves, ones that could barely be considered moves at all, simply random chopping. Yet even so, the attacks from Su Youyi and Yu Gejing, who was further away, could not advance.
Yu Gejing, from a distance, cast various types of Arrays: those that trapped enemies, defended, attacked, and even ones ant to confuse, all of which had erged one after another.
Above and below, Arrays were everywhere. Tiny Arrays nested within bigger ones to form an Array within an Array. But these Arrays were powerless before Cang Dong—each dismantled with a single swing of his halberd.
However, Su Youyi managed to restrain Cang Dong in a brief ti, surprising even herself with the imnse power she wielded when using the Sword Immortal Realm with the sword sheath in her hand.
The Flawless Sword Technique was perford to the utmost limit of her current Realm, and even Su Youyi doubted she could attain such perfection again—a single mistake could an death.
Although there seed to be no sign of defeat, Cang Dong was not satisfied. He had little power left in his body, and he had gone into intense battle without any adjustnt after just fusing with his Divine Soul.
Moreover, the more he looked at this young girl before him, the more familiar she seed, almost exactly like... Jianyi!?
Boom—
A thunderclap of winter thunder exploded!
Cang Dong was taken aback, as the flash of lightning had montarily illuminated Su Youyi’s face. And when the light dimd once again, only her eyes remained burning bright like flas.
He had seen such eyes in only one person, the sa individual who suppressed him for millions of years, the thought of whom still sent shivers down his spine!
Su Jianyi!
Even though her pupil color is different, this girl is definitely related to Su Jianyi!
Cang Dong took a deep breath, and the spiritual energy of thousands of miles around directly reversed into his body. His realm soared from the early stage of the Fourth Realm to the late stage of the Sixth Realm, and was even still rising.
Once their understanding of the Dao is sufficient, elevating their realm is truly a simple matter for these people.
The most notable example was a Taoist Sect powerhouse he heard of, who went from an ordinary person to a Heavenly Immortal at the pinnacle of the Ninth Realm with a single breath of purple qi.
With a single horizontal slash, Cang Dong forcibly split apart the thunder summoned by the Sword Array of Yu Gejing and the sword moves of Su Youyi, sending Su Youyi crashing backward, spitting blood, and tumbling into the arms of Yu Gejing.
Even now with nearly no physical strength and just a trace of Divine Soul power, he is still a cultivator of the Ninth Realm; his judgnt is set. The attacks of these two juniors at the Third Realm appear full of flaws in his eyes, like a rag riddled with holes, defeating them would be as simple as lifting a hand.
Facing such a vastly stronger enemy, Su Youyi and Yu Gejing couldn’t help but feel so despair.
Under their current state, already severely injured, facing such a formidable enemy, things seed decidedly grim. And while Su Youyi was pondering strategies, she suddenly caught a signaling glance from senior sister Yu, and attuned in spirit, they both thought of the gains they had achieved while cracking the Sword Array before.
That Sword Array was sothing neither of them could deploy alone, yet there was a glimr of hope when they joined forces. They had planned to practice it later, but now there was not enough ti.
The Sword Array that had shrouded the entire mountain peak was specifically designed to seal the remnant body from the Abyss; utilizing it now would be most fitting.
In the distance, Cang Dong still stood, frowning in contemplation. That detestable Su Jianyi, wasn’t he from the First Epoch, while the female cultivator before him seed to belong to the Third Epoch?
Could it be that the old rogue of the Taoist Sect who slaughtered more rcilessly than they of the Abyss, living through to the Third Epoch, had also played at cradle-snatching? Otherwise, this girl, who might be his daughter, wouldn’t possibly have lived from the First Epoch to the Third Epoch, right?
Su Youyi and her partner were not the antiquated righteous Daoist practitioners of stories and, seeing Cang Dong distracted, began to set up the Array.
Yu Gejing pressed her left hand on the ground, now turned into an ice surface. The sky-blue Array directly expanded to encompass the entire mountain, trapping Cang Dong within the Array. Despite her right hand being frozen, even with just one hand, Yu Gejing’s speed of forming the Array was still astonishing.
Unfathomable mories erged from the depths of her mind. She seed to beco another person, the real her.
Su Youyi, on the other hand, hovered above Yu Gejing, dancing with her sword sheath in hand like a Fairy in the snow, displaying the Swordsmanship learned from the very beginning to the last within the Sword Array along a precise trajectory. What was a decisive and lethal Sword technique in her hands danced out beautifully, enchanting the world around her.
Initially worried about the inexperience with the Sword technique causing the Array to fail, Su Youyi found that her sword sheath was guiding her, performing the Sword technique in the most perfect and standard posture.
The snowflakes that had been drifting scattered in the sky also began to move along the trajectory of Su Youyi’s Sword technique, gradually forming an Array in the sky.
When Cang Dong snapped out of his reverie, the Array that connected heaven and earth was already completely deployed.
The new Array interacted with the old one on the mountain, invoking the power of the heavens and earth, seeking to restrain Cang Dong at the center of the Array once more!
"Trying to restrain ? Then co and try to see!" Cang Dong sneered grimly, tossing aside the question of whether Su Youyi was the daughter of Jianyi or not. Regardless, she was ant to die here today along with the other woman.
