683: Chapter 7: Illusion of the Sword, the Sword Intent Turns into Evil

The Grey Phantom Moth Emperor looked at Bai Yuan in front of it, and sensing a familiar residual aura from him, its eyes narrowed.

Then, remembering his earlier words, its heart sank, and the killing intent in its eyes surged dramatically.

"You die!"

The next moment, the Grey Phantom Moth Emperor, without hesitation, launched a fierce attack again.

Its strange wings trembled violently, and countless grey-black powders peeled off its wings like dust, rapidly flying towards Bai Yuan and the others.

Even more astonishing was that as soon as these powders appeared, anyone who gazed at them seemed to vaguely see some familiar faces within the hazy powder.

These faces were not conjured from thin air; they were identical to the images of the people most deeply imprinted in their minds at that moment.

Seeing this, Bai Yuan frowned slightly.

"Illusions?"

However, when he looked closely, he was astonished to find that within the grey-black powder, the figures of his comrades who had fought alongside him in his era actually appeared.

Among them, most prominent was an old man in battle armor.

He slowly walked out of the powder, a faint smile on his face, his eyes revealing comfort and admiration for Bai Yuan.

"Xiao Bai, it seems you've become a very good Guardian of Great Xia. This truly comforts your Master!"

The old man's voice echoed in Bai Yuan's ears, as if transcending the barriers of time and space.

Bai Yuan gazed at the old man before him. Even though he knew it was an illusion, an indescribable excitement surged in his heart.

This old man was his Master, the previous Prince Wuan.

At the same time, he was also Leng Ningbing's father, and thus, Hu Lai, the Beast God Sect Leader's father-in-law.

However, regretfully, this valiant Prince Wuan had bravely fallen in a tragic battle against foreign races a hundred years ago, sacrificing himself to save the new generation of Great Xia.

Bai Yuan silently watched the old man in front of him; his expression remained cold, but a hint of reluctance still flickered deep within his eyes.

"Master, once Xiao Bai is done with this, I will definitely bring good wine to visit you!"

Before his words finished, a dazzling white light suddenly flashed, like lightning tearing through the night sky, instantly ripping the old man apart.

At the same time, the swirling powder was also forcibly cleaved by a powerful force, scattering to both sides.

And amidst this swirling powder, the Grey Phantom Moths, previously obscured above, revealed their true forms!

"How dare you use my Master to deceive me! Today is your day of death!"

Bai Yuan's hair stood on end with rage, his voice exploding in the air like thunder.

With his roar, a terrifying Emperor Realm aura, mighty to the extreme, surged skyward like a volcanic eruption.

Bai Yuan held his sword with one hand, and the Qi of slaughter around him permeated like rolling smoke, as if he were a God of Slaughter who had walked out of Hell.

In just a moment, that Qi of slaughter condensed around him into an incomparably fierce Vicious Beast.

This Vicious Beast bared its fangs and claws, its face ferocious, and its large, bell-like eyes revealed endless killing intent, staring fixedly at the Grey Phantom Moth Emperor above.

"Roar~"

Accompanied by a low yet soul-stirring roar, this Vicious Beast, formed from the Qi of slaughter, charged directly towards the Grey Phantom Moth Emperor like a cannonball.

However, the Grey Phantom Moth Emperor showed no sign of retreating; its eyes revealed confidence.

Although its greatest strength lay in Divine Soul attacks, this did not mean it was vulnerable in other aspects.

"That depends on whether you have the ability!"

The Grey Phantom Moth Emperor sneered, a hint of disdain in its voice.

Immediately after, the Grey Phantom Moth Emperor violently flapped its wings, and a powerful Divine Soul force surged forth like raging waves.

This Divine Soul force was so substantial that it instantly transformed into numerous Clones identical to the Grey Phantom Moth Emperor.

These Clones, like ghosts, quickly flapped their wings and charged towards Bai Yuan, their speed as fast as lightning, dazzling to the eye.

Facing the overwhelming swarm of illusory moths, Bai Yuan's figure moved rapidly like lightning.

His figure was like electricity, not intimidated in the slightest by this terrifying number.

The sword in Bai Yuan's hand gleamed with cold light, and his Sword Intent was incomparably sharp, as if it could tear through the Void Realm.

Each swing of his sword was accompanied by a slight tremor in space, as if the entire world trembled for his sword.

Those seemingly real moth Clones shattered one after another under Bai Yuan's sword, like fragile bubbles, instantly turning into nothingness.

But these Clones re-condensed after being shattered, and they became more and more numerous!

"Sword Intent Transforms into Fierceness!"

Bai Yuan suddenly chanted in a low voice, and the long sword in his hand suddenly burst forth with a brilliant light.

This light was as dazzling as the sun, and the Sword Intent it contained was as vast as the sea.

In the blink of an eye, this Sword Intent merged into the Vicious Beast that had manifested behind him.

As this Sword Intent entered, the Vicious Beast's power surged, and it roared as it pounced towards the Grey Phantom Moth Emperor.

The Vicious Beast was unstoppable, not only shattering all the illusions but also continuing its momentum, directly pressing towards the Grey Phantom Moth Emperor's main body.

Seeing this, the Grey Phantom Moth Emperor's eyes flashed with solemnity, but it did not retreat. Instead, it suddenly spread its wings, releasing an even stronger mental fluctuation.

"Mental Storm, Soul Annihilation of All Things!"

The two forces collided violently in the air. The ferocity of the Vicious Beast intertwined with the Chaos of the mental storm, erupting in dazzling light and deafening roars.

The surrounding space seemed to be torn apart by this force, forming spatial rifts, and the terrifying energy fluctuations forced even distant onlookers to retreat.

However, at this crucial moment, Bai Yuan's eyes suddenly became exceptionally bright. He seemed to have seen through all of the Grey Phantom Moth Emperor's disguises, and a cold smile appeared at the corner of his mouth.

"Your tricks end here."

Before his words finished, Bai Yuan's figure accelerated again, appearing like a ghost at the core stronghold of the Grey Phantom Moth swarm.

At the same time, a strange change occurred in the battle above the sky.

"Pfft!"

A slender wound was clawed onto the Grey Phantom Moth Emperor's massive body by the Vicious Beast.

But this wound spread rapidly, as if it had a life of its own, devouring everything around it until it completely consumed the entire body of the Moth Emperor.

The Grey Phantom Moth Emperor showed no resistance, merely looking coldly at Bai Yuan. Its body began to collapse, turning into specks of fluorescent light and dissipating into the air.

Not far away, Wind Light Dance and Azure King, while recovering, watched the battlefield. Seeing this scene, they exchanged glances, both seeing a hint of disbelief in the other's eyes.

They were not fools and naturally knew that the Insect Emperor could not be resolved so easily.

This meant that what was just killed was not the Insect Emperor, or rather, not the Insect Emperor's main body!

Thinking of this, they couldn't help but look in the direction Bai Yuan had just left. That area was already covered by the insect swarm again, making it impossible to see the situation inside.

But both of them could feel that an aura even stronger than Bai Yuan's had already erupted.

Clearly, that was the true body of the Insect Emperor!
