I Have a Sword

Chapter 848: The Battle Begins



An old woman looked down coldly at a desolate planet down below with a gaze full of killing intent. She was none other than Evil Granny.

Ever since she left Great Zhou, she had been frantically searching for Ye Guan.

Ye Guan seemed to have vanished, leaving behind no trace. Finally, she received news that Ye Guan had gone to the Great Zhou.

Just thinking about the Great Zhou made Evil Granny's face contort with rage.

To make matters worse, the Great Zhou had just declared Zhou Fan as their heir! It was a blatant disrespect of the Evil Dao Alliance.

If the Evil Dao Alliance weren't busy with the True Universe’s True God, she would bring all of the Evil Dao Alliance's elites to destroy the Great Zhou.

The Evil Dao Alliance had been too low-key these years, which led to some powers grossly underestimating them.

Just then, an old man appeared next to Evil Granny.

Evil Granny's grim and fierce face immediately became respectful. She bowed slightly to the newcomer and said, "Master Yue."

Master Yue ignored her and glared coldly at the desolate planet down below.

Evil Granny asked, "Master Yue, does this boy really warrant your attention?"

"Foolish!" Master Yue scolded with a frown.

Evil Granny dared not retort.

Master Yue didn't even glance at her as he said, "The Great Zhou has demoted Zhou Fan to a commoner to avoid conflict with our Evil Dao Alliance. However, Zhou Fan actually became the heir after Ye Guan's visit. What does that mean in your eyes?"

"I did my own investigation, but my people were killed before they could even enter the Great Zhou..." Evil Granny muttered, and her eyes became as cold as a thousand-year-old icy cavern as she said, "The Great Zhou has thoroughly disrespected our Evil Dao Alliance, and they deserve to be destroyed."

Master Yue coldly asked, "Why did they suddenly change their stance and side with that boy against us?"

Evil Granny hesitated, and then she frowned deeply. Obviously, she was baffled by the Great Zhou's move as well.

The Evil Dao Alliance had yet to reveal all of its cards, but the Great Zhou surely knew of their fearsome reputation. Despite that, they decisively sided with the boy. It didn't make sense at all.

Evil Granny asked, "Shall we keep investigating?"

Master Yue shook his head. "No need."

Evil Granny looked at him in confusion.

"Why investigate?" Master Yue calmly said. He pointed at the desolate planet and said, "We're going to kill all of his backers. If his backer is Buddha, then we'll slay Buddha!"

Master Yue tapped with his finger, and the distant desolate planet shattered before disintegrating layer by layer.

A tap of his finger was enough to shatter a planet.

Swoosh!

A beam of sword light shot up from the desolate planet.

Master Yue stepped forward and flipped his right hand. "Kneel!"

Boom!

A colossal hand manifested in the void. It was clenched into a fist, and it swung toward the oncoming sword light.

A stretch of stars was annihilated in an instant.

Bang!

The sword light shattered, and a figure was sent flying tens of thousands of meters away.

The figure was none other than Ye Guan.

When Ye Guan stopped, a drop of blood trickled down the corner of his mouth. The sword made from his sword intent had shattered beneath the punch.

Ye Guan looked at Master Yue in the distance with a grave light in his eyes.

Master Yue was a Path Creation Realm expert.

Path Creation Realm cultivators were truly terrifying; just one punch had almost shattered Ye Guan's fleshly body.

Despite the shock, Ye Guan's will to fight was becoming even stronger.

His sword intent seemed to have sensed his will to fight as it surged crazily, and a resonant sword hum echoed from Ye Guan's fleshly body.

Master Yue stared at Ye Guan and remarked, "You are indeed a genius. I reckon you're invincible below the Transcension Realm. Otherwise, you couldn't have survived my punch."

Ye Guan wiped away the blood on his lips and said, "Again."

Boom!

Two bloodline powers surged from within Ye Guan, and his aura skyrocketed. Ye Guan dared not hold back and immediately activated his two bloodlines.

Ye Guan's power grew explosively to the point that the surrounding spacetime couldn't withstand his aura anymore.

Ye Guan himself felt there was endless power inside him.

Master Yue stared deeply at Ye Guan and said, "Two special bloodlines. How interesting."

Master Yue stepped forward and pressed down with his hand.

Boom!

A spacetime rift appeared above Ye Guan, and a colossal fist descended toward the latter like a hammer.

The surviving stars nearby disintegrated right before Ye Guan's eyes, but he remained steadfast before the horrifying sight.

A fierce light gleamed in Ye Guan's eyes as he opened his palm, revealing a myriad of swords made out of sword intent. The sword lights took to the sky, making a beeline for the colossal fist.

Boom!

The colossal fist was forcefully scattered by the blood-red sword lights.

Before Ye Guan could celebrate, however, his eyes widened in shock.

A figure had closed in on him, and a fist the size of a sandbag was flying toward his face.

Top experts in some martial arts novels rarely used weapons and preferred using their fists. Why? It was all because true mastery of the Great Dao was in simplicity.

It was definitely not because the author lacked the creativity to think of anything else to arm their characters with.

In the face of Master Yue’s punch, Ye Guan didn't back down, Instead, he charged at it with a sword in hand.

Bang!

Ye Guan's sword shattered, and a wave of intense pain swept across him as he was blasted away.

Just as Master Yue was about to send another attack, he frowned and turned around. Before he could react, a sword was already at his throat—Phantom Edge.

Boom!

Master Yue's figure trembled violently, and a powerful wave of energy burst out of him, rippling outward for millions of kilometers.

Ye Guan stared intently at Master Yue.

Master Yue turned slowly, and the sword at his throat was revealed. Unfortunately, it hadn't pierced his skin.

Ye Guan's face darkened at the sight. Even Phantom Edge couldn't injure Master Yue.

Master Yue turned to Ye Guan and remarked, "I cultivate both the Dao and my fleshly body."

Master Yue clenched his right hand, and the sword at his throat shattered into nothingness.

Ye Guan frowned deeply. He didn't expect Master Yue to possess such a formidable fleshly body.

After shattering Ye Guan's sword, Master Yue sneered and took a step forward, shattering the spacetime around him.

Ye Guan's pupils contracted to needle points. This time, he held nothing back and merged with Ao Qianqian.

Boom!

A beam of golden light burst out of Ye Guan and took to the sky.

At the same time, Master Yue charged at Ye Guan like a bolt of lightning, and the spacetime around him imploded beneath his cataclysmic might.

Ye Guan was undaunted at the horrifying sight, and he raised his sword calmly in the face of the oncoming Master Yue.

Ye Guan swung his sword, and a deafening explosion echoed, forcing both him and Master Yue to retreat.

Master Yue managed to stabilize himself after just a few hundred meters, but it took Ye Guan several kilometers of distance to stabilize himself.

As soon as Ye Guan came to a halt, he took a deep breath and examined himself. Despite Ao Qianqian's support, Ye Guan still felt like he had gotten hit by a hammer in the head after taking that punch head-on.

The pain was truly excruciating.

If it hadn't been for Ao Qianqian, Ye Guan believed that he would have been killed by that punch.

Indeed, Path Creation Realm experts couldn't be underestimated.

Ye Guan looked at Master Yue in the distance, and his expression grew even more solemn.

Meanwhile, Master Yue was surprised. He hadn't expected a mere Divine Dao Realm cultivator to last against him for so long.

What a monster! Master Yue's eyes narrowed, and an intense killing intent appeared within.

Swoosh!

Master Yue suddenly disappeared, and Ye Guan felt a wave of overwhelming energy sweeping toward him.

Ye Guan stepped up and thrust his sword forward.

Bang!

The sword shattered, and Ye Guan was sent flying once again.

Just as Master Yue was about to make another move, he frowned, noticing that his lifespan had decreased by nearly a thousand years.

Master Yue looked at Ye Guan in shock. "What did you do?!"

Ye Guan wiped away the blood from his mouth and grinned. "I really want to see how much lifespan you have left to lose."

With that, Ye Guan thrust his sword forward once again. It appeared to be an ordinary sword thrust, devoid of any sword intent, but Master Yue's expression changed drastically upon seeing it.

He waved his sleeve, unleashing a terrifying wave of energy to defend himself.

However, the sword thrust still managed to shave off another thousand years of his lifespan!

Ye Guan's recent two attacks had just shaved off two thousand years of his lifespan.

Master Yue's expression finally turned serious. He stared at Ye Guan and muttered, "That sword technique..."

Seeing that Ye Guan was ready to strike again, Master Yue charged at Ye Guan first, throwing a punch.

The punch contained a cataclysmic might seemingly capable of tearing apart even the Laws of the vast expanse.

Ye Guan wiped away the blood on his mouth and charged forward, thrusting his sword toward the fist.

Boom!

As expected, Ye Guan's sword light shattered, and he was forced back hundreds of meters away.

Ye Guan's face was pale; the spacetime manipulation technique that he had just learned was taking a significant toll on him.

Otherwise, he would have done it a hundred times in an instant to kill Master Yue in an instant.

"Spacetime!" Master Yue's eyes narrowed, and his voice was filled with undisguised shock and disbelief as he muttered, "Spacetime... You're just a Divine Dao Realm cultivator... how come someone like you already has a grasp of that?"

"Do Path Creation Realm experts not have a grasp of Spacetime?" Ye Guan asked.

Master Yue stared at Ye Guan without saying anything.

"I heard that one has to master a unique path to become a Path Creation Realm expert. What path have you mastered?"

Master Yue was about to respond, but he seemed to have realized something and frowned. "You’re trying to buy time."

Swoosh!

Master Yue transformed into a streak of light that charged at Ye Guan.

Ye Guan clenched his right hand, and a blood-red light shot into the sky. A bloodline divine statue appeared behind him, and it was wielding a colossal sword.

The bloodline divine statue swung its sword to meet Master Yue.

Boom!

The starry skies exploded, and Master Yue was blasted hundreds of meters away.

Ye Guan and the bloodline divine statue were forced to retreat as well.

Evil Granny's face darkened at the sight. Clearly, she didn't expect that Ye Guan would be so powerful.

Master Yue was a top-tier supreme elite in the Path Creation Realm, but he was actually being pushed back by a mere Divine Dao Realm cultivator? This was absurd!

Evil Granny's killing intent surged like a tide as she glared at Ye Guan.

Meanwhile, Master Yue looked down at his right hand and saw a deep wound in it. He looked at Ye Guan in the distance and muttered, "Monster."

Master Yue clenched his right hand, unleashing a terrifying aura.

Just as he was about to attack, he seemed to have sensed something and looked up.

Then, he turned to Ye Guan and said, "Everyone, attack him together!"

With that, three more powerful auras appeared, and they joined Evil Granny to attack Ye Guan at the same time.

Ye Guan now had to protect himself from five Path Creation Realm experts!
