First Immortal of the Sword

Chapter 762: Undying and Eternal

Within the Heavenly Demon Heaven-Slaughtering Formation.

Su Yi swung his sword, never once showing mercy.

Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom!

Streaks of indomitable sword qi scattered, ripping through the sky. Nothing could stand in their way. Wherever they passed, illusory heavenly demons burst and dissipated.

As for the corpse puppets? They offered no more resistance than blades of grass. Before they could even approach, the sword qi’s boundless might minced them into fine powder.

The other eight platforms manifested?of the?Nine Extremes World-Suppressing Formation suffered an enormous blow too.

“Quick, attack with everything you’ve got!”

“Kill him——!”

The Spiritual Incarnation cultivators standing atop the platforms reacted as if they’d gone mad. They circulated the formation with their full power, surrounding Su Yi and attacking from all sides.

But an attack like this was no threat to Su Yi when he went all out.

They watched as—

Boom!

A streak of radiant sword qi cleaved through the skies, its force sufficient to sever both mountains and seas.

In the face of this slash, an enormous platform crumbled, and the nine Tianji Dao Mountain Spiritual Incarnation cultivators standing atop it perished. Even their souls dispersed.

A sword to cleave mountains and seas, sweeping through like a turbulent tide!

Its imposing sword force shook everyone present once more.

When Lie Yanchong of Tianji Dao Mountain saw this, his eyes bulged as if about to burst. There was no limit to his fury.

He and the other higher-ups weren’t just standing back and watching this happen. No, they’d been circulating the Heavenly Demon Heaven-Slaughtering Formation with everything they had this entire time.

But despite their efforts, it wasn’t so easy to suppress Su Yi’s attacks.

Two flicks of the finger later.

Yet another platform exploded into pieces. A streak of dazzling sword qi swept through the Buddhist cultivators of the Pure Emptiness Buddhist Sect. They barely had time to let out heaven-shaking shrieks before their bodies exploded.

That sword qi was far too terrifying. Nothing could block it, and there was nothing it couldn’t break. It was emblazoned with three supreme Mysterious Truths of the Grand Dao: Genesis, the Supreme Palace, and the Void Cosmos. How could its power possibly be ordinary?

“Bastard!!”

The withered Clarifying Origins was as furious as a golden vajra.

Of course, he wasn’t the only one. Huan Tiandu and the other major powers were all beside themselves with fury and bristling with anger. They couldn’t contain their hatred.

The distant onlookers, meanwhile, were flabbergasted.

This battle had been one startling twist after another. Their hearts and souls shook.

Both the sheer terrifyingness of the allied formation’s trap and the strength and abilities Su Yi had put on display overturned their perception, delivering an enormous mental blow.

It was to the point that when they saw Su Yi’s display of might from within the Heavenly Demon Heaven-Slaughtering Formation, they couldn’t help but wonder just what the allied factions would have to do to suppress him.

Six flicks of the finger later.

Three booms rang out in rapid succession, shaking both heaven and earth.

The entire Heavenly Demon Heaven-Slaughtering Formation trembled violently.

Su Yi had, in one fell swoop, fired off three slashes targeting three different blood-colored altars. Each shattered, and the Spiritual Incarnation cultivators upon them perished, their Daos disappearing with them. Not one survived!

Like an axe through bamboo. One attack was enough.

Just like that, he’d taken the lives of more than twenty Spiritual Incarnation cultivators!

This bloody scene left Huan Tiandu and the other major powers on the verge of going insane.

“We can’t let things go on like this!”

Lie Yangchong said raspily. “Everyone, if we don’t attack now, everything we set up earlier will go to waste!”

Huan Tiandu and the others’ expressions shifted with uncertainty.

“Fine!” Zhao Beizhen gnashed his teeth. “Then let’s act in accordance with our agreement and destroy that bastard completely!”

The others quickly voiced their agreement, one after another.

“Everyone, if we do this, the price we pay will be far, far too great…” Huan Tiandu was a bit hesitant.

But it was then that yet another platform exploded. The Huan Family Spiritual Incarnation cultivators standing on it perished without a single survival.

Huan Tiandu had still been somewhat hesitant, but when he saw this, his anger instantly overcame him. “Fine! So long as we destroy him, it doesn’t matter what price we have to pay!”

“Attack!” Huan Tiandu took a deep breath, then suddenly controlled his black altar bowl.

Practically simultaneously, sixty-three other Spiritual Revolution cultivators took out their treasures.

Flying swords, Daoist seals, jade rulers, gourds, wooden fish… There were sixty-three treasures in total. These were the magic treasures used to circulate the Heavenly Demon Heaven-Slaughtering Formation.

Now, all of these treasures burst into flames at once, like a meteor shower descending upon the Heavenly Demon Heaven-Slaughtering Formation.

Su Yi seemed to notice, as his eyebrows shot up.

He could tell at a glance that these old-timers had cast all reservations aside. They were willing to destroy the entire Heavenly Demon Heaven-Slaughtering Formation to kill him!

They sure were ruthless!

After all, Su Yi wasn’t the only one within the formation. There were still two platforms left, each with about ten Spiritual Incarnation experts standing upon them.

Obviously, the leadership of the allied factions no longer cared whether they lived or died!

Boom!!!

It was as if heaven and earth were splitting apart.

Only a single dazzling streak of light remained before the onlookers’ eyes.

It was searingly bright, as if the sun had suddenly exploded. Its light illuminated the nine heavens.

The destructive currents of the blast swept out like a hurricane. Everywhere they passed, the air was thrown into disarray, and the earth caved in. Mountains were reduced to ash, offering no more resistance than paper mache.

Even some of the relatively nearby onlookers were enveloped in this flood of destruction. They barely had time to shout before they were destroyed, body and soul.

Most of the onlookers, however, managed to retreat further away in time.

All of them were overcome with astonishment, and their hearts welled with endless terror.

Even Starpluck Mountain, which was shrouded in formation after formation, swayed upon impact. Boulders came crashing down its slopes, and it looked as if the towering mountain were about to topple!

Quite some time passed before the radiance filling the area dimmed and the flood of destructive power calmed.

“It’s finally over.” Huan Tiandu and the others sighed in relief.

In the face of such destructive power, not even Emperors would have emerged unscathed, much less a mere Su Yi!

“Alas, this battle exhausted practically all of the seven allied factions’ treasures, and none of our Spiritual Incarnation experts survived…” The withered Clarifying Origins clasped his hands together, his expression compassionate.

“Killing Su Yi was worth it! The world is still under our control, and we will be the leaders of this new era!” Lie Chongyang said with a carefree laugh. “One of these days, we’ll have to visit Nine Tripod City and…”

Suddenly, the grand elder of Tianji Dao Mountain froze mid-sentence. His smile went rigid, and his eyes bulged as if about to pop out of their sockets.

If in the distant skies, as the clouds of smoke and misty light dispersed, they saw a tall, upright figure standing there. Streaks of light poured down around him, shrouding him within.

Although he was covered in wounds and cut a rather sorry figure, he stood perfectly upright, as straight-backed as his sword, like an eternal, indestructible god or immortal gazing contemptuously down upon the world below!

When they saw him, all of heaven and earth fell silent. Everyone froze like a clay statue.

The grand formation had fallen, and everything within it had been destroyed. Only one figure remained!

And that, naturally, was Su Yi!

“You’d even kill your allies? I’m impressed; I really see you all in a new light,” said Su Yi, his calm tone rife with mockery.

“Impossible… This is impossible…”

The experts’ hands and feet shook. They dared not believe their eyes.

They’d put everything they had into that attack, destroying the formation they’d exhausted countless heavenly materials and earthly treasures to place. Not even an Emperor would have dared face such terrifying power head-on.

Yet Su Yi… had actually survived!

The distant onlookers were completely dazed, and waves of astonishment coursed through their hearts. They couldn’t find words to describe what they felt right now.

Su Yi was like an undefeatable, eternal god. He was so strong that it was inevitable that they’d be astonished!

This was no different from a miracle!

“Do you have anything else left? If so, go ahead and bring it out,” said Su Yi. As his calm voice rang out, he stepped through the air and approached Starpluck Mountain.

His clothes were in tatters and he was covered in wounds, but his aura hadn’t diminished. If anything, it had soared, and his body blazed with sword intent, practically setting the heavens themselves on fire.

His momentum alone made the sixty-three Spiritual Revolution Cultivators’ hearts shake.

Most of them were from the older generation, those who’d suffered the effects of the Prohibition of Ancient Darkness. Their combat prowess was ordinary at best.

Even the younger Spiritual Revolution cultivators were at best on par with Huan Shanglin and Xie Zhibei.

How could they possibly be a match for Su Yi?

They’d made meticulous arrangements, and they were planning to use the multi-layered killing formation to exterminate Su Yi completely. They had no intention of fighting Su Yi with the power of their personal cultivations.

But now, their layered killing formation?had?fallen apart…

In other words, they’d already lost the very thing they were relying on most! action

But even ants wanted to live, let alone men!

“Everyone, don’t let his bluster scare you. There are sixty-three Spiritual Revolution cultivators here in total. If we all call upon our trump cards, there’s no reason we can’t exterminate him!” Huan Tiandu said gravely.

As he spoke, he took out his Natal Spirit Treasure.

“Everyone, attack together. Kill him!”

“Kill him!”

The Spiritual Revolution Realm cultivators present knew that this was a matter of life and death. How could they possibly hold back?

All of them attacked at once!

Boom!

Heaven and earth were plunged into darkness, and the moon and sun lost their light.

Sixty-three Spiritual Revolution cultivators attacked at once, each calling upon their Natal Spirit Treasures and activating their trump cards. All of this power was directed at Su Yi.

All at once, the light of treasures soared into the heavens, Daoist incantations rumbled, and all manners of treasures swathed in shocking divine radiance swept toward Su Yi in a boundless flood.

The sight was enough to terrify even gods and ghosts.

“Ants are, ultimately, nothing more than ants. That doesn’t change, not even when they encircle you.” Su Yi’s gaze was cold and contemptuous, and a mocking smile tugged at his lips.

In the face of this monstrously terrifying onslaught, he showed no sign of emotion, and he made no attempt to dodge. He just took a deep breath and swung his sword.

Whoosh!

A streak of dazzling sword qi pierced the heavens, full of indescribable, inscrutable charm. It was like the light of the heavens shining down upon the human world, or like purple air descending from a starry sky.

When this slash came crashing down, it seemed to rip the world asunder.

As the rift extended, the full-force attack that combined the strengths of sixty-three Spiritual Revolution Realm cultivators instantly split in two, offering no more resistance than cotton fabric.

Boom!

Heaven and earth collapsed with a bang. Secret techniques crumbled, and all manner of treasures went flying.

The group of Spiritual Revolution cultivators staggered back, forced to retreat.

Some of the older-generation cultivators were injured to the point of coughing up blood. They cried out in agony as the sword qi ravaged them. They almost perished on the spot.

As enormous as it was, the grand formation fell apart, just like that.

The onlookers' hearts shook just witnessing this.

So, one slash could actually be this terrifying!
