Chapter 1399 She's Really Not Human
Even as the man's weakened spirit tried frantically to escape, the feeling of being locked on remained ever-present.
He had never felt death so clearly before, and he finally came to realize a fact.
Gu Xia wasn't joking.
She really wanted to kill him.
The man considered himself to be of considerable cultivation level, and believed that apart from Fang Jinxing, there was no one in the entire cultivation world worthy of his attention.
Unexpectedly, things went awry, and they were defeated by a mere brat.
The more arrogant they were when they brought their men to the Ye family, the more pathetic they looked as they fled.
He didn't even have the mind to think about the meaning behind Gu Xia's words; only one thought was frantically flashing through his mind—
run!
Gu Xia's sword technique rapidly gathered, spiritual energy covered the sword, and the edge of the sword gleamed with a cold light. Powerful sword energy swept across the entire battlefield.
The girl raised her eyes and coldly uttered, "Soul Severing."
The sword fell, seemingly containing immense power.
"Destroy God!"
The sword energy was like a rainbow, and in an instant, white light illuminated the heavens and earth, completely enveloping the man's primordial spirit, which had already darted a considerable distance.
A deafening roar erupted from the spot where the sword light fell.
The Annihilation Sword, which had been hiding in its scabbard and refusing to show itself, seemed to finally succumb to the immense temptation before it. It suddenly emerged from the spirit sword and retrieved a portion of the remnant soul before the primordial spirit was completely shattered.
"What a waste! Gu Xia, you are really wasting a lot of talent!"
Without hesitation, the Annihilation Sword absorbed all the remaining remnant souls. Its blood-red eyes opened, revealing a murderous aura, and a greedy look appeared on its face.
The primordial spirit of a demon in the Mahayana stage is indeed extraordinary. Even when he was with that unlucky Demon Lord before, he had never enjoyed such treatment.
After all, a great demon who has cultivated to such a level is not one that can be easily devoured by him.
If he hadn't reacted quickly, he would have been reduced to ashes by Gu Xia's sword.
The entire Ye family was instantly enveloped by the murderous aura that erupted, and the dark sky seemed to take on a bloody hue. With the evil energy spreading everywhere, the members of the Ye family were so frightened that they huddled together behind the elders.
My God, that's terrifying.
"The sword's killing intent has intensified." The Ye family head frowned. "Can Gu Xia really control it?"
He was not a sword cultivator, but he had heard the legend of sword spirits protecting their masters. However, looking at the bloodthirsty light flashing in the eyes of that sword spirit standing on the battlefield, he was deeply moved.
The head of the Ye family felt inexplicably uneasy.
No matter how you look at it, it seems like this thing is lucky it doesn't kill its master.
Noticing the unpleasant gazes fixed on him, Annihilation Sword snapped out of his excitement, his expression turning cold as he turned to look in the direction of the gazes. He saw a group of Ye family disciples with terrified expressions.
"what?"
Having just absorbed the power from the remnant soul of the Great Demon, the Annihilation Sword immediately swelled up considerably. The feeling of being the center of attention made him very unhappy, and his inner killing instinct was awakened.
"What are you looking at?"
His eyes were overflowing with malice. "Believe it or not, I'll gouge your eyes out!"
Hiss, what a fierce sword spirit.
The Ye family disciples all averted their gazes, burying their heads in their chests like ostriches, afraid to look up and meet the eyes.
Seeing this, the Annihilation Sword became smug.
See? He just said he's the best.
The next second, a merciless iron fist came crashing down from nowhere, slamming him into a large crater blasted into the ground.
Gu Xia spun around in mid-air and landed lightly on the ground, giving a cold glance. "Say it again, whose eyes are you going to gouge out?"
The sun is shining and the rain has stopped, so this useless thing thinks it can do anything again, huh?
Obliteration Sword: "..."
Gu Xia shattered the sword's soul with three punches; she's truly not human.
He emerged from the pit, covered in dust and dirt, glanced at Gu Xia's expression, and snorted, "Nothing."
A wise person knows when to yield; this isn't cowardice on his part.
He simply didn't want to stoop to Gu Xia's level.
The head of the Ye family's eyes twitched as he looked at the sight: "..."
It's him who worries too much.
It seems that anything can become obedient in Gu Xia's hands.
A powerful figure at the Mahayana stage, a dominant force in the Demon Clan, has now met a tragic end, his soul scattered and his body destroyed.
This is really...
"That's wonderful!"
*
Despite their fear, the Ye family cultivators couldn't help but break into wide smiles.
The leader of the demons is dead, and the remaining demon cultivators are terrified. In other words, the Ye family's crisis has been resolved.
The crowd couldn't help but cheer quietly.
However, at this moment, the heavenly lightning that was brewing again in mid-air lost its previous target and flickered twice in a somewhat bewildered manner. The opponent's primordial spirit was destroyed, and the last trace of its remnant soul was also devoured by the Annihilation Light Sword.
But with all the heavenly lightning procedures prepared, it's impossible to go back without striking anyone.
Fortunately, it didn't dwell on it for long, as its attention was quickly drawn to the two auras below.
Two breakthrough auras were enough for it to cleave for a long time.
The dark purple lightning bolt rolled down like a thick, swimming dragon, giving no one a chance to react before striking straight down.
The moment the immense residual force swept out, the previously jubilant crowd froze, coughing up blood as they were pinned to the ground.
Grass.
How could I forget about this thing?
Everyone's face turned ashen, and the hairs on their bodies stood on end.
For a moment, I couldn't tell whether the demons in the Mahayana stage or the tribulation-crossing stage were more terrifying.
For them, these are two fucking horror stories, okay?
Everyone was so tense that they held their breath and stared wide-eyed, but the two people under the lightning were probably even more nervous than them.
The head of the Ye family felt his heart was about to jump out of his throat.
Even now, he still doesn't understand how things have developed to this point.
Although Ye Suian had been given a lot of protective magic artifacts in advance, the lightning tribulation above his head was clearly not right. Those defensive magic artifacts could only withstand a few hits at most, and the Ye family head didn't even dare to think about what would happen if the rest hit him.
A thunderous roar descended, accompanied by a deafening sound. The silvery-white lightning illuminated half the sky and crashed down upon Gu Xia, who had just landed, before everyone's eyes.
The Annihilation Sword vanished almost instantly, its speed so fast it was as if a dog was chasing it.
Gu Xia was completely enveloped in white light.
"..."
Her lips twitched, and her body crackled with electricity. The feeling of being struck by lightning was indeed painful, but for this body tempered by phoenix fire, it was nothing more than a drop in the ocean.
That useless piece of trash, the Annihilation Sword, ran faster than a dog after seeing the lightning tribulation; it's completely unreliable.
And that damned Heavenly Dao, it cleaved her in two without warning, not even giving her a moment to catch her breath.
Despite being bathed in the thunder, Gu Xia's mind remained remarkably clear, and she even had the mind to curse inwardly.
The screams and exclamations of the Ye family disciples were all captured by divine sense.
Gu Xia, on the other hand, remained calm.
Because this tribulation was influenced by her.
So what? Crack it, what else can you do?
It's going to get chopped sooner or later anyway; there's no way to avoid it.
Ye Suian wasn't as calm as her.
He could still watch the spectacle from a distance when they were striking that great demon, but now the lightning tribulation is striking his own junior sister!
He straightened up and peered out, a hint of worry in his eyes.
Although they were stunned by the unexpected joy that 'Gu Xia has passed the tribulation,' this is still a lightning tribulation, which countless cultivators throughout history have had to go through.
Many fail, and while failing to transcend the tribulation and falling in cultivation level is one thing, more serious cases can even result in death.
No matter how much he trusted Gu Xia, he couldn't change one fact—
She is still too young.
Throughout the thousands of years of cultivation history, there is no one who can break through realms with such abnormal speed as her.
He was already facing tribulation before he turned twenty.
If I told people this, they'd probably think it's easier to just dream about it.
Ye Suian didn't know what she had gone through during the time she disappeared, but he was afraid that something might happen if she took the tribulation due to her unstable foundation.
Moreover, he clearly remembered that she and that great demon had been locked in combat for quite some time before the lightning struck.
What if Gu Xia's energy is depleted and affects her condition during the tribulation?
In their nervousness, they even forgot about their own situation.
However, he forgot that some people did not.
Perhaps it was Gu Xia's absent-minded attitude while being struck by lightning that made the lightning seem humiliating, because as soon as Ye Suian got closer, it keenly sensed the breakthrough aura emanating from her.
I almost forgot, there's one that hasn't been chopped yet.
A few flashes of lightning, and the dark purple lightning tumbled in the clouds, suddenly turning its spearhead like a dragon swinging its tail, and rushed down towards Ye Suian's head.
"!!!"
In an instant, the world was illuminated, and several people inside and outside the arena changed their expressions at the same time.
