Chapter 356: Another One!
In addition, he was now holding the Qingxuan Sword; it was his father\'s sword, and Little White had somehow managed to summon it.
Gazing at the Qingxuan Sword and the crimson ancient copper shield in his hands, Ye Guan fell silent.
He felt somewhat uneasy about relying on tools. Deep down, he resisted the idea. He preferred confronting challenges with his own strength, avoiding any semblance of being a privileged individual dependent on his parents.
Gu Zuoshi chuckled and said, "A boost to the Great Sovereign Realm, plus two divine items... Well, it\'s fine. This way, people won\'t accuse me of bullying the weak. Come here, then!”
With that, he threw a punch at Ye Guan in mid.
Boom!
A colossal fist imprint descended, and every inch of spacetime it touched would crumble into nothingness. Ye Guan instinctively stomped forward with his right foot, transforming into a streak of sword light that rushed to meet the fist imprint.
Ye Guan\'s sword clashed with the oncoming fist imprint. The fist imprint shattered, and the sword light continued on its trajectory toward Gu Zuoshi.
Jingchen’s eyes widened in disbelief.
Had Ye Guan really overpowered Gu Zuoshi’s fist imprint with a single sword strike?
Gu Zuoshi was also taken aback, but Ye Guan wasn\'t going to wait for him to recover from his shock. He closed in and slashed out. In response, Gu Zuoshi sent another punch.
Boom!
Ye Guan\'s sword shattered Gu Zuoshi\'s fist imprint, and Gu Zuoshi’s right arm was sent flying.
Ye Guan was stunned, but he quickly regained his composure and slashed out toward Gu Zuoshi.
Gu Zuoshi’s heart skipped a beat, and he didn\'t dare to confront Ye Guan head-on.
He jumped back and retreated a few kilometers away.
Slash!
Ye Guan\'s sword struck nothing but spacetime, tearing it apart.
Ye Guan looked down in astonishment at the Qingxuan Sword in his hand.
How come it was so strong?
Gu Zuoshi stared intently at the Qingxuan Sword in Ye Guan\'s hand; his eyes were filled with dread as he cried out, "What kind of sword is that?!"
Ye Guan replied, "It\'s my father\'s sword!"
With that, he turned into a streak of sword light and rushed toward Gu Zuoshi.
Gu Zuoshi’s pupils constricted. He no longer underestimated Ye Guan. He opened his left hand and balled it into a fist. In an instant, a myriad of fist imprints manifested and surged toward Ye Guan like a tumultuous tidal wave.
Ye Guan didn\'t dare to underestimate the fist imprints. He sheathed his sword and raised the ancient copper shield in his left hand to defend himself.
Bang!
Ye Guan managed to stand his ground. The endless fist intents pounded against the crimson ancient copper shield, and the spacetime around him shrieked miserably as it was torn apart, but he remained unmoving.
Soon, the fist imprints vanished.
Ye Guan and the crimson ancient copper shield remained unscathed.
Gu Zuoshi froze in disbelief at the unbelievable sight.
Ye Guan was also stupefied.
He looked down at the crimson ancient copper shield in his hand in shock.
This thing is a bit too hard! Ye Guan exclaimed inwardly. If he had to nitpick, it would be the fact that the Qingxuan Sword consumed too much profound energy.
Despite his high cultivation base, the Qingxuan Sword still managed to exhaust his profound energy.
Just then, Little White suddenly flew onto his shoulder.
Ye Guan was about to speak, but Little White’s claws wrapped around his head. A vortex of spiritual energy surged into him, and a white mark appeared on his glabella.
Little White then patted Ye Guan’s shoulder with her tiny claws and pointed at the distant Gu Zuoshi. She clenched her tiny claw tightly and sent a punch toward Gu Zuoshi. Clearly, she wanted Ye Guan to beat Gu Zuoshi up!
Ye Guan nodded. He suddenly transformed into a streak of sword light that sped toward Gu Zuoshi. Gu Zuoshi\'s eyes narrowed. He opened his left hand, and a spear appeared in his hand. He took a stance and dashed toward Ye Guan, leaving a trail of dazzling light.
He had decided to confront Ye Guan head-on. A fierce light filled Gu Zuoshi’s eyes, and he was outraged at the fact that he was facing a young man whose strength had come from unorthodox methods such as secret techniques and divine items.
Gu Zuoshi firmly believed that those things were a bunch of nonsense.
True strength could only be achieved without relying on those things!
Gu Zuoshi\'s spear collided with the Qingxuan Sword, and it shattered.
Ye Guan\'s sword continued to advance, making a beeline for Gu Zuoshi\'s face.
Gu Zuoshi was shocked, and he quickly jumped backward. The jump propelled him a kilometer away from Ye Guan, but a pool of blood had settled where Gu Zuoshi had been standing earlier.
Ye Guan looked up at Gu Zuoshi and saw that blood was dripping down his glabella.
Shockingly, his fleshly body had been reduced to nothingness in that brief exchange, leaving him in his fragile soul form.
Jingchen was stupefied, and he cast an incredulous look at the Qingxuan Sword in Ye Guan\'s hand. What kind of sword was that? How come a lone sword had elevated Ye Guan’s strength to the extent that he had become akin to a monster?
Gu Zuoshi was completely dumbfounded as well. The sword had destroyed his fleshy body in an instant. If he had reacted even a beat later, his soul would have been destroyed as well. The sword was shockingly strong!
Meanwhile, Ye Guan\'s profound energy plummeted to zero after the attack, but the mark on his glabella lit up, pumping him with fresh spiritual energy that replenished his profound energy.
Ye Guan immediately turned to Little White. He had to admit that he had grossly underestimated Little White. She didn\'t know how to fight, but she was the best support any cultivator could have in battle. Her abilities were just incredible!
Ye Guan finally understood why Senior An had told Little White to help him.
Little White was terrifying when she wasn\'t playing around.
Ye Guan focused his attention on Gu Zuoshi again. He felt completely confident of killing Gu Zuoshi with the Qingxuan Sword in his hand. He felt invincible, and this was the same feeling that would fill his heart with the Path Sword in hand.
Gu Zuoshi’s expression turned ugly. However, his expression changed after recalling something. He whipped around to stare at Jingchen and yelled, “Go! Do it!”
Jingchen was stunned, but he reacted quickly and rushed toward Nalan Jia and Little White. Jingchen knew that Gu Zuoshi wouldn\'t be able to do much against Ye Guan at this point. Jingchen had to capture the Spirit Progenitor and Nalan Jia.
Ye Guan frowned and turned around.
Little White blinked and stretched her claws to the sky.
Moments later, a crimson sword descended from the skies.
Rumble!
The entire starry sky transformed into a sea of blood.
Jingchen immediately came to a halt and cast a horrified gaze at Little White. The crimson sword had instilled a primal fear in him, and he didn\'t dare to move at all.
Meanwhile, Little White soon grasped the crimson sword, and she waved it around while squeaking. The sword carved beautiful arcs in the air, and the crimson sword lights it emitted tore every inch of spacetime in their way as they flew in all directions.
Just then, Little White pointed the sword at Jingchen and yelled, “Boom!”
Swoosh!
A crimson beam of sword energy rushed toward Jingchen like a torrent of water.
Jingchen\'s face changed drastically. He waved his sleeve, and a mysterious force burst out of his robe.
Boom!
The crimson beam of sword energy was blocked, and Jingchen was stunned to discover that the sword energy wasn\'t that strong!
Jingchen did a double take at the crimson sword in Little White\'s hand. The sword had instilled a primal fear in him, just like the sword in Ye Guan\'s hand, but the Spirit Progenitor couldn\'t wield it properly.
Jingchen\'s gaze turned cold.
Before he could make a move, however, a shrill cry echoed next to him.
Jingchen turned and saw Gu Zuoshi pinned in place by the sword in Ye Guan\'s hand, and Ye Guan\'s sword was frantically devouring Gu Zuoshi\'s soul.
Gu Zuoshi is dead? Jingchen was dumbfounded. However, he decisively looked away and rushed toward Little White! I\'m going to catch that Spirit Progenitor first!
Little White blinked and hurled the crimson sword toward Jingchen before running away.
Jingchen was delighted. He burst into uproarious laughter before reaching out to grab the crimson sword. However, the crimson sword suddenly erupted into a beam of sword energy that rushed toward Jingchen, but it missed!
Boom!
Cold sweat dripped down Jingchen\'s forehead. If he had been leaning even in the slightest to the left, he would have perished just now.
Meanwhile, Ye Guan sheathed the Qingxuan Sword. The sword had become even more powerful after devouring Gu Zuoshi\'s soul. Overall, he judged it to be a great sword.
Ye Guan grinned in satisfaction. The Qingxuan Sword was amazing, and he wanted to have this kind of sword for himself in the future. Of course, he was well aware that a sword\'s strength depended on the swordsman rather than the sword itself.
In other words, the sword was incredible because his father was incredible.
Ye Guan slowly turned toward Jingchen. He was just about to attack when a deafening boom echoed in the spacetime above them. A spacetime rift had been torn open, and Ye Guan looked up to find a tall, burly man walking out of the rift.
He was clad in a golden battle armor with a golden axe on his shoulder. A domineering aura wafted off of him, and every step he took would shake the spacetime around him.
Jingchen sighed in relief upon seeing the man.
"Battle Sovereign!" he cried out in excitement.
The Battle Sovereign was one of the four strongest sovereigns of the Eternal Civilization. The Battle Sovereign had lost only twice so far—his first defeat was to the Eternal Sovereign, and his second defeat was to the Great Daoist Brush Master.
Most importantly, the Battle Sovereign lived for the sake of nothing else but to battle.
