Chapter 055: Azure Blood Sword Qi: Strike the Nine Heavens

An overwhelming pressure swept out, constantly sealing the space, and surging energy howled forth, causing the vacuum to tremble violently.

His flesh was cracking, Yang Tian was drenched in blood, his hood shattered, revealing a cold little face. Though his aura was constantly shrinking, his battle intent soared within, and he kept punching upward.

“Xiao Bai, hold them off, I’ll go help Brother Yang.” Seeing Yang Tian’s wounds, Yun’er’s eyes flashed with a trace of pity.

“Ao wu.” Xiao Bai wagged his tail, his sharp claws waving constantly, a white shadow like a swift lightning, blocking the two.

Clang! Sprinting near Huang Li, the emerald long sword in her hand suddenly burst with radiance. Yun’er frantically activated the sword’s power, and a shocking sword intent shot forth. On the blade, azure sword qi floated, quickly gathering into a sword river.

“Azure Blood Sword Qi, Strike the Nine Heavens!” Yun’er’s pretty face was pale and bloodless, her delicate body swaying as if about to fall. The energy within her sharply shrank. Suddenly she gave a soft cry, and ten thousand strands of azure sword qi shot out simultaneously, the sword river surging toward Huang Li.

The sword qi was fierce, the brilliant sword light piercing through the vacuum, the sword river formed by ten thousand sword qi surging violently.

“Not good.” Looking at the sword river in the sky, Huang Li’s face changed drastically. He suddenly spat out a mouthful of essence blood, and the divine patterns on the small earthen bell blazed brightly, its unmatched power climbing.

“Duo!” Huang Li roared angrily, a giant bell phantom suddenly split off, crossing layers of vacuum, and struck toward the sword river!

The void was suppressed by the giant bell. The sword river suddenly burst forth with ten thousand sword intents, the river within swiftly scattering into ten thousand small swords, like a rain of swords, attacking the giant bell phantom.

Clang! Clang!

Harsh sonic booms exploded frequently. Yun’er’s body swayed more and more. She stubbornly tightened her small face, the ten thousand small swords attacking the sky, the giant bell phantom constantly shaken.

“Bitch, you’re asking for death, don’t blame me.” Huang Li’s face twisted. He spat another mouthful of essence blood onto the illusory bell body. The vitality within him had shrunk to an extreme, but the phantom’s power surged again, and the heavens and earth were once again shaken down.

The sword river was constantly crushed. Yun’er’s face turned deathly pale, pain spreading in her eyes, and traces of blood seeped out. If not for her precious garment, her injuries would have been even more severe.

“Break for me!” Yang Tian roared, his black hair dancing in the void. Without a continuous supply of blood qi to nourish the earthen spirit ancient bell, a flaw appeared in the sealed void. Yang Tian roared repeatedly, punching continuously, his body roaring like a flood dragon, his battle intent surging, and he broke free from this space.

When he saw Yun’er about to collapse to the ground, Yang Tian roared repeatedly, his gaze fierce, his bloodshot eyes fixed on Huang Li like an angry bull trampling.

“Not good.” A fierce aura rushed toward him. Huang Li’s face changed drastically. The blood qi within him had almost dissipated, and he had little power left to resist.

“Die!” Yang Tian shouted angrily. Though severely wounded, his will was tenacious. Without any nonsense, he threw a punch directly, ferocious and unmatched, sending Huang Li’s body flying dozens of zhang away.

Huang Li broke several ancient trees in succession before his body stopped. He convulsed constantly, his venomous gaze turning toward him.

“Bastard, I won’t let you off.” Huang Li coughed blood. On his body, a layer of earthy yellow light surged, covering his entire flesh like a turtle shell, densely packed with divine patterns flowing.

“I’ll be waiting. Come find me if you can.” Yang Tian turned and rushed toward Yun’er. Huang Li’s precious garment was also a semi-finished Dao artifact. Though he could kill Huang Li, it would take too long, and the commotion just now must have alerted many people.

“Die!” Carrying the unconscious Yun’er on his back, Yang Tian charged all the way, mad as if possessed, directly killing the other two, and ran forward with Xiao Bai.

Just after Yang Tian left, sounds of breaking air came from not far away, people attracted by the commotion. When they saw Huang Li wrapped in a turtle shell, they fled without hesitation.

“Haha, isn’t this Huang Li? Why are you hiding in a turtle shell?” Suddenly, a fat man appeared here. Seeing Huang Li, his face full of flesh trembling, he couldn’t help but step forward and stomp twice.

“Who are you?…” Huang Li’s face flushed with shame and anger, his fierce gaze fixed on the fat man. The fatty gave him a familiar feeling.

“Haha, I’m your ancestor.” The fat man laughed heartily, kicked Huang Li’s body flying, and watching the black dot disappear, he chuckled, then his figure flickered and he rushed into the distance.

In the forest, a staggering figure carried a girl in green on his back. Ahead of him, a white phantom cleared the way. The surrounding beasts, seeing the white shadow, turned and fled.

After running through the endless forest for several hours, Yang Tian found an abandoned cave, blocked the entrance with a boulder, and finally breathed a sigh of relief.

On his body, dense cracks oozed blood, all caused by the earthen spirit ancient bell’s shock.

“I didn’t expect this little girl to master such a powerful martial skill. Her identity is not simple.” Looking at the sleeping Yun’er, Yang Tian clicked his tongue. That sword river earlier would have taken considerable effort for him to withstand.

He took out a Heavenly King Treasure Heart Pill and fed it into Yun’er’s mouth, then noticed the crystal ball tightly held in her hand. The energy波动 within was extremely profound, and Yang Tian couldn’t help but admire Yun’er’s good fortune.

“Huang Li, is it? This matter won’t end like this.” Looking at Xiao Bai sleeping on the ground, a trace of ferocity flashed in Yang Tian’s eyes. Though Xiao Bai was extremely fast, his combat experience was clearly too low.

Inside the Ancestral Dragon Ring, Yang Tian sat cross-legged amidst a pile of ancient elixirs, frantically devouring ancient qi. The wounds on his flesh rapidly healed under the ancient qi.

Yang Tian suddenly opened his mouth and sucked in a Heavenly King Treasure Heart Pill. Dozens of fiery waves instantly swept toward his broken bones. The vitality that had been extremely weak gradually recovered under this vast medicinal power.

Yang Tian turned into a furnace, his five viscera and six bowels vibrating. With the ancient qi and the medicinal power of the Heavenly King Treasure Heart Pill, every bone crackled and exploded. Tempered by the faint red energy, his bones became increasingly hard, the effect penetrating deep into the marrow.

After several cycles of the War Heaven Art, the energy in his blood sea rapidly filled. Yang Tian was undergoing a transformation. The battle with Huang Li had deepened his understanding of the nameless fist technique.

The next day.

A few rays of sunlight filtered through the cracks in the rocks, shining into the cave. The originally pale pretty face now had a rosy hue. The body that had slept for a night stirred, and the tightly shut eyes slowly opened.

After a moment of confusion, Yun’er suddenly woke up. Her beautiful eyes scanned the cave. When she saw a young man nearby recovering from his injuries in meditation, she patted her chest, and her tense mind instantly relaxed.

“Brother Yang, yesterday it was all my fault that harmed you.” Staring at Yang Tian’s face, a trace of apology flashed in Yun’er’s eyes. The Yellow Dragon Valley was powerful, with peerless experts in the sect. Given Huang Li’s personality, he would definitely retaliate against Yang Tian in the future.

Her beautiful eyes gazed fixedly at Yang Tian. Time flew, and three days passed in a flash.

In Yang Tian’s qi sea, a river of blood qi floated in the sky, accompanied by drumming sounds. The qi sea churned like waves, surging energy mixed with wind howls. Drumming, wind howls—these extraordinary phenomena were signs of vitality pushed to the extreme.

“I didn’t expect that the injury two days ago would actually bring about the phenomenon. Huang Li, it seems I should thank you.” Yang Tian smiled. The ancient qi around him had decreased slightly compared to three days ago.

“Break for me!” Yang Tian roared. The river of blood qi suddenly floated above his head, accompanied by drumming and wind howls. Fierce and terrifying energy surged out, shaking the heavens and earth!

“Brother Yang is about to break through.” Yun’er was startled awake, her gaze fixed on the river of blood qi. When the deafening drumming sounded and the wind howled, Yun’er’s small mouth instantly formed an O shape.
