747: Chapter 747 Lu Xueqi and Biyao (126)

Before his voice had even faded, Hei Shangzi's figure flickered. The black longsword in his hand, carrying a world-destroying Devilish Qi, stabbed toward Su Han. This sword strike was incredibly fast, so fast that it left behind a trail of black afterimages. Wherever the Sword Qi passed, the air was torn asunder, letting out a piercing screech; even the surrounding Chaos mist was scattered slightly by the Devilish Qi.

"Su Han, look out!" Fairy Yuehua's expression changed. With a wave of her white longsword, dense waves of Moonlight Sword Qi slashed toward Hei Shangzi's blade in an attempt to block his assault. Simultaneously, her figure blurred as she stepped in front of Su Han. The Moonlight Power within her body erupted completely, forming a white shield around them both to protect them.

“Bang! Bang! Bang!” A series of thunderous explosions rang out as the Moonlight Sword Qi collided with the black Sword Qi, instantly bursting apart. A powerful shockwave spread in all directions, blasting massive craters into the surrounding ground and sending shattered stones flying. Fairy Yuehua spat out a mouthful of blood and involuntarily retreated several steps, her face turning as pale as paper. Clearly, the power of Hei Shangzi's strike far exceeded her capacity to endure.

“Junior Martial Uncle!” Su Han's expression darkened, a flicker of fury flashing in his eyes. He reached out to support Fairy Yuehua, injecting a stream of pure Chaos Spiritual Power into her body. “How are you? Are you alright?”

“I'm fine, it's just a minor injury that won't affect the battle.” Fairy Yuehua shook her head and wiped the blood from the corner of her mouth, her eyes glinting with determination. “Su Han, Hei Shangzi's strength is too great; we cannot face him head-on. We must find his weakness!”

“I know!” Su Han nodded, his gaze fixed intently on Hei Shangzi as a sharp light flashed in his eyes. He could sense that although Hei Shangzi's Devilish Qi was dense, there was a slight sluggishness in its circulation. Especially after unleashing a full-strength attack, his aura would momentarily become disordered. This might just be Hei Shangzi's flaw!

“What? Distressed for your little Junior Martial Uncle?” Hei Shangzi sneered, brandishing his black longsword once more. “In that case, I'll kill her first before slowly dealing with you!”

With that, Hei Shangzi charged at the two of them again. His black longsword transformed into countless sword shadows, stabbing toward Fairy Yuehua in a dense formation. This time, his offensive was even more violent and the Devilish Qi more concentrated. He clearly intended to end the fight quickly by first removing the burden that was Fairy Yuehua.

“Don't even think about hurting my Junior Martial Uncle!” Su Han roared, erupting with all the Chaos Spiritual Power in his body. With a swing of his chaos sword, he instantly unleashed the eleventh style of the Chaos Sword Technique: 'Chaos World-Breaker'. This was a sword technique Su Han had only truly comprehended after his Breakthrough to the Middle Stage of the Soul Transformation Stage, and its power was several times greater than 'Chaos Devouring Heaven'.

An even more massive and condensed Chaos Sword Qi erupted from the chaos sword. It was golden in color and carried a power that could devour everything as it swept toward Hei Shangzi's sword shadows. This Chaos Sword Qi not only contained pure Chaos Spiritual Power but also fused Power of the Dao Heart and Green Lotus Power. It could purify all evil influences and had a powerful restraining effect on Devilish Qi and yin fiend qi.

“Boom—!”

The Chaos Sword Qi collided with the black sword shadows, producing a deafening roar as a powerful shockwave instantly swept across the entire battlefield. On the field, whether they were Disciples of the Qingyun Sect, Zixia Sect, or Heifeng Sect, or the Cultivators of the Black Demon Hall and Yinsha Puppets, all were shaken by the shockwave, their blood and energy churning as they were forced back. Some weaker Cultivators even spat blood and collapsed to the ground.

Hei Shangzi's figure stiffened as he was forced back three steps. His black longsword trembled slightly, and a look of disbelief flashed in his eyes. He hadn't expected that after Su Han's Breakthrough to the Middle Stage of the Soul Transformation Stage, he would be able to unleash such a powerful strike. Even his own attack had been stopped cold, and he had even been shaken to the point of his blood and energy churning.

“This is impossible! How could you possess such strength?” Hei Shangzi shrieked, his eyes filled with madness. “The Chaos Dao Body truly lives up to its reputation! I must have it, I must!”

Before he finished speaking, Hei Shangzi formed hand seals and began chanting an obscure, difficult incantation. As the spell was recited, the Devilish Qi within him circulated frantically, and the black halo around him grew denser, even starting to twist and deform. Simultaneously, the power within the Black-robed Cultivators, Yinsha Puppets, and strange grey-robed cultivators behind him began to surge wildly, converging toward Hei Shangzi.

“Not good! He is absorbing the power of his subordinates to increase his own strength!” the Grand Elder's face changed as he shouted loudly. “Everyone, speed up! Slay the enemies around you as quickly as possible and go support Su Han!”

Hearing the Grand Elder's call, the Disciples of the Qingyun Sect, Zixia Sect, and Heifeng Sect all erupted with even greater power, fighting desperately to kill the enemies near them. The purple longsword in Perfected Zixia's hand moved faster and faster, sending down streaks of purple Sword Qi like a torrential rain, slaying the Yinsha Puppets and strange grey-robed cultivators one after another and purifying the yin fiend qi and eerie auras within them.

Perfected Heifeng grew more courageous as the battle progressed. Every swing of his black longsword claimed the life of a black-clad Cultivator. The black spiritual power around him grew denser as he pinned down three Black-robed Cultivators at the Early Stage of the Soul Transformation Stage, preventing them from going to support Hei Shangzi.

Meanwhile, seeing Hei Shangzi absorbing his subordinates' power, Su Han's expression became increasingly grave. He could feel Hei Shangzi's aura rising rapidly, moving from the Early Stage of the Late Soul Transformation Stage toward the Peak of the Late Soul Transformation Stage, with faint signs of breaking through to the Peak Soul Transformation Stage. If Hei Shangzi were allowed to finish absorbing all his subordinates' power, the two of them would no longer have any chance of victory.

“Junior Martial Uncle, we can't let him absorb his subordinates' power; we must interrupt him!” Su Han said to Fairy Yuehua, a look of determination flashing in his eyes. “In a moment, I will lead the attack to draw his attention. You take the opportunity to circle behind him and use your Moonlight Power to strike the back of his heart—that is where his weakness lies!”

“Alright! You must be careful!” Fairy Yuehua nodded, her eyes full of worry, but she knew this was currently their only option. She took a deep breath, circulating her remaining Moonlight Power while simultaneously absorbing the surrounding Heaven and Earth Spiritual Qi to quickly recover from her injuries.

Su Han took a deep breath, fusing his Chaos Spiritual Power, Power of the Dao Heart, and Green Lotus Power together. The Chaos Vortex around him grew larger, and his golden halo became increasingly dazzling. His figure blurred like a bolt of golden lightning as he charged toward Hei Shangzi, swinging his chaos sword to send dense waves of golden Chaos Sword Qi stabbing at him to draw his attention.

“Humph! Overestimating yourself!” Hei Shangzi snorted coldly. Although he was in the middle of absorbing his subordinates' power, he still had more than enough strength to deal with Su Han's attack. (End of Chapter)
