I Have A Sword-Chapter 1295: Rebellion Runs in My Family
Chapter 1295: Rebellion Runs in My Family
Ye Guan slowly closed his eyes. His heart was calm, like still water.
I am a man of focus and steady mind...
Everything else faded away.
Ye Guan couldn't feel anything but the Qingxuan Sword in his hand.
Hum!
A resonant sword hum pervaded the firmament. The next instant, a blood-red sword light erupted. It streaked through the air with unstoppable force, slicing straight toward Taixuan You and the other cultivators up ahead.
Decisive Strike!
The moment Ye Guan unleashed Decisive Strike, both his sword energy and sword intent surged crazily. The sheer power radiating from him was enough to rival the combined might of tens of thousands of cultivators.
Taixuan You was prepared for an attack, but his expression still changed the moment he saw Ye Guan's move. Without hesitation, he raised his right hand and opened it, revealing a dark golden shield.
The dark golden shield materialized in midair and grew hundreds of meters wide in an instant. It hovered like an impenetrable iron wall before him and Ye Guan's attack.
The Taixuan Shield!
One of the Taixuan Clan's divine artifacts; it was forged from incredibly rare materials as well as a steady torrent of Ancestral Dao power.
Its durability was unparalleled, and it was capable of withstanding even the tribulations of the Ancestral Dao. It was one of the clan's most treasured relics.
As soon as the shield materialized, it radiated an aura of absolute fortitude. It was like nothing in the world could pierce it.
Boom!
Despite that, Ye Guan's sword cleaved through the shield as if it were a mere piece of paper, shattering it into countless fragments.
Taixuan You's face twisted in shock, but before he could react, he was sent flying by Ye Guan's attack. At the same time, Ye Guan was instantly engulfed by a torrent of attacks, blasting him away.
He crashed violently into the glowing barrier behind him, causing the barrier to tremble.
Just as he was about to fall to the ground, someone caught him in midair.
It was Third Sister.
Ye Guan barely managed to stand up before coughing up a mouthful of blood. One-on-one, none of those elites could match him, but together, their combined strength was simply overwhelming.
There was indeed strength in numbers.
Just then, another barrage of attacks landed on the barrier.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
The barrier flickered, and its light dimmed under the relentless assault. Third Sister's face grew even paler. There were so many attacks at once that maintaining the barrier was starting to take a toll on her.
Ye Guan wiped away the blood on the corner of his mouth. He stepped forward to fight once more, but Third Sister grabbed his arm.
Third Sister shook her head slightly and said, "Stay put."
Third Sister's face revealed her surprise at Ye Guan's combat prowess, but she knew that no matter how powerful he was, he couldn't possibly take on tens of thousands of top-tier cultivators by himself.
Ye Guan's voice was grim. "Third Sister, the barrier won't hold much longer."
Third Sister nodded slightly and glanced at the Heavenly Tomb World.
The world was silent.
After a while, she turned toward the attackers, eyes cold. Slowly, she raised her right hand, and a flame ignited in her palm. The moment the fire appeared, Ye Guan felt an unbearable heat; he felt like his fleshly body was melting.
Meanwhile, Third Sister's figure became illusory. It was like she was transforming into mist.
Ye Guan's heart clenched at the sight. "Third Sister?"
Third Sister smiled and explained, "It's fine. This fire was given to me by Big Brother. I don't even know its name. It took me ages to tame it, and I still haven't fully adjusted to it."
Ye Guan wanted to say something, but Third Sister raised her hand and whispered, "Rise."
Boom!
The flame in her palm transformed into a blazing pillar of fire that shot into the sky. In an instant, hundreds of cultivators were incinerated along with their souls. The others recoiled in sheer terror, scrambling away in chaos.
The Nine Continent Master shook his head. Those cultivators were strong, but they were utterly disorganized. Only a few hundred of them had died, but fear had already engulfed them. In the end, none of them were willing to risk their lives.
They weren't united at all. If they had the resolve to fight to the death, Ye Guan and the woman beside him would have died earlier.
The Nine Continents Master turned his gaze toward the distant void, where the Ancestral Dao was staying to oversee the battle. Moments later, he looked back at Ye Guan and said, "Your progress is impressive, but it doesn't matter."
Meanwhile, the battlefield outside the barrier had transformed into a sea of fire, and none of the attackers dared to cross it.
Ye Guan turned to Third Sister. The fire had left her hands, but she remained illusory. Ye Guan sounded incredibly worried as he remarked, "Third Sister, you..."
Third Sister ignored him and looked at the Upper God and the others. They were still being suppressed by the Dao Defier Corpses. "Little Nine, go help them."
Ye Guan narrowed his eyes. "What are you planning?"
He knew that she was trying to send him away.
Third Sister chuckled. "You're too sharp for your own good."
Ye Guan's tone hardened. "Third Sister, their numbers don't matter. They're divided and selfish; no one here is truly willing to die for the Ancestral Dao. If we strike hard enough, they'll hesitate and retreat."
Third Sister turned to look at him, a soft smile playing on her lips. "Little Nine, for someone so young, you're frighteningly mature. You must have suffered a lot."
Ye Guan froze and forced a smile. "It wasn't too bad."
Third Sister looked up, and her voice was barely above a whisper as she muttered, "Just a little more time..."
Before she could finish, a colossal hand descended from the heavens, smashing down with unstoppable force.
Boom!
In the blink of an eye, the sea of fire was extinguished.
At the same time, Third Sister trembled violently and spat a mouthful of blood.
Ye Guan rushed forward to catch her. "Third Sister!"
Third Sister shook her head weakly. "I'm fine."
As she steadied herself, a new figure appeared.
It was a man in a flowing black robe, and an iron mask obscured his face.
The masked man opened his palm, revealing the flame that she had just unleashed. It was now trapped in his grasp. Staring at the flickering flame, he chuckled and remarked, "Ling Xiao is truly generous. He actually gifted you the first Divine Fire of the Ancient Era.
"It seems that he really does care about his little siblings."
Third Sister's expression turned cold. "Who are you?"
She was shocked, as few people in the world knew her big brother's true name.
The masked man ignored her question. Instead, he glanced at the Heavenly Tomb World. After a moment, he murmured, "No wonder you're so determined to hold the line. He's busy restoring his strength."
With that, he began walking toward the Heavenly Tomb World.
Third Sister's eyes narrowed, and she clenched her hands into a fist. But before she could act, Ye Guan suddenly said, "Third Sister, let me handle this."
Third Sister hesitated.
Ye Guan added, "Focus on healing."
Before she could protest, Ye Guan transformed into a streak of light that blocked the masked man's path.
The masked man stared at him and chuckled. "You must be the newest recruit."
"The youngest." Ye Guan nodded.
The masked man smirked. "So young but already a Dao Defier. Not bad."
Ye Guan's voice was calm. "Can't be helped. Rebellion runs in my family. We'd rather die standing than live kneeling."
The masked man burst into laughter. "I like stubborn ones. Breaking them is even more satisfying. I hope you don't disappoint me."
Swoosh!
The masked man shot forward like a thunderbolt.
Crack!
The spacetime around him shattered, and the cracks spread at terrifying speeds, engulfing the starry skies. All who witnessed this scene felt an overwhelming pressure pressing down on their chest.
The pressure was even more terrifying for Ye Guan, and it made him feel as if he were drowning.
Despite that, he remained unyielding and twisted his wrist, activating his three bloodlines and the Order Sword Intent within him.
The terrifying aura that had engulfed him was blasted away.
The moment the masked man charged forward once again, the same oppressive aura manifested once more, sweeping toward Ye Guan like a tidal wave.
Almost simultaneously, Ye Guan slashed out with the Qingxuan Sword. Thanks to his bloodlines and the Order Sword Intent, his attack tore through the oppressive aura.
Boom!
A deafening explosion echoed as a sword and a fist collided. Both Ye Guan and the masked man were sent flying backward. Just as Ye Guan was about to crash into the rune barrier, someone caught him in midair.
It was Third Sister.
Not far away, the masked man came to a halt. Lowering his gaze, he looked at his right hand and was surprised to see a deep wound. After a while, he looked at Ye Guan in the distance and muttered, "Your sword... actually managed to wound my Eternal Divine Body? Interesting."
Ye Guan wiped away the blood from the corner of his mouth and looked at the mysterious figure. "You're not that impressive."
He wasn't just boasting. He initially thought the masked man was an unbeatable force, but after exchanging blows, he realized that the gap between them wasn't that big.
The masked man wasn't even close to Fan Zhaodi in strength.
With that thought in mind, Ye Guan's expression grew more serious. He was beginning to realize that Fan Zhaodi's strength was probably beyond the peak experts of peak Tier Ten Civilizations.
The masked man burst out into a peal of laughter upon hearing Ye Guan's words. "I'm not that impressive? You ignorant ant, do you even know my name? I am—"
Swoosh!
Ye Guan interrupted the masked man by slashing forward.
Unbeknownst to everyone, a woman was quietly observing the battle from up above. Her gaze was both calm and indifferent. ƒreeωebnovel.ƈom
