205: Chapter 205 Bai Shui Bai Chong

Ye Xuan raised the crimson longsword in his hand, pointing the tip directly at Shen Quan, his tone nonchalant.

"Since you are seeking death, I will grant your wish."

Before the words even faded—

A crimson sword light swept out like a bolt of lightning!

The sword light was as fierce as blood and incredibly fast; wherever it passed, the air was torn apart, emitting a sharp, piercing sound.

This full-force strike from a Peak Dharma Image Realm Cultivator, infused with the Demonic Path Cultivation Technique of the Tiansha Abyss, possessed enough power to instantly kill any Cultivator below the fifth stage of the Dharma Image Realm!

In the distance, Lie Yangzi's expression changed drastically, and he subconsciously retreated half a step.

"It's over! That brat is dead for sure!"

However—

Shen Quan stood where he was, unmoving.

A cynical smile still hung on his lips, and he even had the leisure to reach up and adjust his bamboo hat.

Just as the crimson sword light was about to touch his chest—

"Clang!"

A crisp sound of metal clashing exploded!

Sparks flew, and a storm of spiritual power swept in all directions!

In front of Shen Quan, a completely silver shield appeared out of thin air, steadily blocking the sword light.

The shield was about three feet square, its surface flowing with intricate runes, faintly shimmering with spiritual light, and emitting a heart-palpitating pressure.

A High Grade Heaven-Grade defensive Magic Treasure—the Profound Light Shield!

Ye Xuan's sword light struck the shield, but only left a shallow white mark before dissipating without a trace.

"What?!"

Ye Xuan's pupils constricted, and the contempt on his face froze.

In the distance, those Cultivators widened their eyes, their mouths agape, their expressions incredibly vivid.

"It blocked it?! A sword strike from a Peak Dharma Image Realm expert was actually blocked?!"

"What kind of Magic Treasure is that? High Grade Heaven-Grade? No! Even High Grade Heaven-Grade isn't that strong!"

"Could it be... Saint-Grade?!"

"Impossible! How could a Huahong Realm Cultivator activate a Sacred Artifact?"

Whispers rose one after another, and everyone's eyes were fixed on the silver-white shield in front of Shen Quan, filled with disbelief.

Shen Quan grinned, reached out to pat the Profound Light Shield, and said in a frivolous tone, "Is that it? The Young Master Chisha of the Tiansha Abyss is nothing more than this."

Ye Xuan's expression darkened.

He stared at the shield, a hint of gravity flashing in his dark red eyes.

A High Grade Heaven-Grade defensive Magic Treasure, and one that had been specially reinforced; its defensive power far exceeded that of ordinary High Grade Heaven-Grade items.

This level of Magic Treasure was not something even their Tiansha Abyss Core Disciples all possessed.

How could this ant at the fifth stage of the Huahong Realm possess such a thing?

"Do you think you can block me with just one Magic Treasure?"

Ye Xuan snorted coldly, vibrated the longsword in his hand, and the dark gold runes on the blade suddenly erupted with blinding blood-colored light!

An even sharper and more terrifying Sword Intent surged from his body, spreading in all directions as if it were tangible!

"Blood Fiend Sword Art, Second Form: Blood Sea Raging!"

He thrust his sword out!

This strike was no longer a probe, but a killing move!

The crimson sword light transformed into a monstrous sea of blood, covering the sky and earth, enveloping Shen Quan and the other two!

Wherever the sea of blood passed, the ground cracked, rubble flew, and a thick, nauseating stench of blood permeated the air!

The smile on Shen Quan's face faded slightly.

He could clearly feel that the power of this strike was more than twice as strong as before!

Although the Profound Light Shield could block it, the impact would still injure him.

"Shen Chong!"

He shouted in a low voice.

Shen Chong did not speak, but simply stepped forward and swept out the cyan-green longsword in his hand.

"Azure Lotus Sword Art, Second Form: Lotus Flower!"

At the tip of the sword, a cyan lotus flower quietly bloomed, growing in the wind, and in the blink of an eye, it transformed into a size of a zhang, blocking in front of the three of them.

The lotus petals were layered, each one flowing with cyan light and emitting a rich vitality.

That vitality formed a sharp contrast with Ye Xuan's sea of blood—one was life, the other was death; one was light, the other was darkness.

"Boom—!"

The sea of blood and the lotus flower collided with a bang, and an earth-shattering roar exploded!

A storm of spiritual power swept everywhere, the ground within a hundred zhang instantly turned to powder, rubble flew, and smoke filled the air!

Shen Chong retreated three steps, each step leaving deep cracks on the ground, and a trace of blood overflowed from the corner of his mouth.

But the longsword in his hand was still steadily pointing at Ye Xuan.

And Ye Xuan was actually shaken back half a step!

Half a step!

Although it was only half a step, everyone present saw it clearly!

"He retreated! Ye Xuan was shaken back!"

"What is that cyan-robed youth's cultivation? Seventh stage of the Huahong Realm? How is it possible to shake back a Peak Dharma Image Realm expert?!"

"It's not cultivation! It's the Magic Treasure! That sword is also High Grade Heaven-Grade! And his Cultivation Technique... it can actually contend with Ye Xuan's Blood Fiend Sword Art!"

Exclamations rose one after another, and everyone looked at Shen Chong with shock.

Ye Xuan steadied his figure, looked down at the longsword in his hand, then at Shen Chong, a flash of gravity in his eyes.

"Azure Wood Precious Body? High Grade Heaven-Grade sword? And... that sword art, it is at least a Saint-Grade Cultivation Technique."

He spoke word by word, his tone filled with disbelief.

"Who exactly are you?"

Shen Chong did not answer, just tightened his grip on the longsword, his expression calm.

Shen Quan grinned, took out a Medicinal Pill from his bosom, threw it into his mouth, chewed twice, and said vaguely, "I told you, Blood Rain Pavilion, Baishui."

Ye Xuan's expression sank.

Blood Rain Pavilion.

He had indeed never heard of it.

But to be able to produce a High Grade Heaven-Grade defensive Magic Treasure, a High Grade Heaven-Grade sword, a Saint-Grade Cultivation Technique, and that kind of sword art capable of contending with the Tiansha Abyss's Core Cultivation Technique...

This so-called "Blood Rain Pavilion" was definitely not simple!

But so what? How many forces in this world could be compared with his Tiansha Abyss!

"No matter what your background is, today, you all must die!"

A ruthless look flashed in Ye Xuan's eyes, the spiritual power in his body surged wildly, and the aura of the Peak Dharma Image Realm was released without reservation!

The sea of blood surged, and Sword Qi crisscrossed.

Ye Xuan's aura climbed to the extreme at this moment, the spiritual power of the Peak Dharma Image Realm poured into the crimson longsword in his hand like a broken dam.

The dark gold runes on the sword shone blindingly, as if to dye the entire world blood-red.

"Blood Fiend Sword Art, Third Form: Blood Sacrifice to the Common People!"

He roared and slashed out with his sword!

The crimson sword light transformed into a blood-colored beam of light as thick as a mountain, carrying the power to destroy the world, and crushed toward Shen Chong and the other two!

Wherever the beam of light passed, the Void Realm twisted and collapsed, and the ground was torn apart by a gully several zhang wide, with rubble flying and smoke filling the air!

In the distance, Lie Yangzi's face turned pale, and he subconsciously retreated several steps.

"It's over... This strike, even a Peak expert of the Dharma Image Realm couldn't withstand it!"

Zhou Yuan was so anxious that his eyes turned red, and he roared hoarsely, "Dodge!"
