Soul Emperor Martial God

The Ice Sky Splitting Slash was Xiao Yi's strongest Sword Dao technique to date.

He had used it to defeat many powerful adversaries all along.

The terrifying blizzard attack swept in all directions, ravaging everything.

But Xiao Yi had always felt that this was not its full power.

The Ice Sky Splitting Slash was a sword technique.

The previous blizzard attack was obviously just the combined result of the extremely cold aura produced by the Ice Sword Gang and the Sword Qi from the Sky-splitting Slash colliding and eventually merging.

This was a method Xiao Yi had figured out by himself.

The real sword technique should be executed with the sword itself.

And today, Xiao Yi finally managed to release it.

Around the Blizzard Sword, a miniaturized 'blizzard' spiraled.

At the tip of the sword, a white vortex formed.

This vortex was the 'Wind Eye' part of the blizzard.

With a slash of his sword, Xiao Yi's tip violently clashed with Bing Chengtian's palm.

This was the first time the Ice Sky Splitting Slash bore its power through the sword.

Its power...

With a loud boom, an overwhelming might suddenly erupted.

Xiao Yi remained unfazed.

Bing Chengtian was sent flying back.

The powerful might did not diminish, continuing to surge forward.

The Evernight Palace Master and Snow Blade Sect Master's expressions changed, hastily releasing a barrier in front of them.

Even so, they still had to retreat several steps before they managed to stabilize.

Afterward, the power of the impact did not stop.

In the span of a breath, the kilometer-long Land of Wind and Snow was split open.

A channel nearly a hundred meters wide was cleaved out directly.

Countless chilling Gang Winds could not gather again for a long time.

"Impressive," Xiao Yi's face brightened with joy as he muttered to himself.

"This is the true power of the Ice Sky Splitting Slash."

"This is the real combination of the Sky-splitting Sword Demon's most powerful martial technique and the Sky-splitting Sword Maiden's most powerful cultivation technique."

Before, Xiao Yi had thought about unleashing the Ice Sky Splitting Slash with the sword.

But at that time, firstly, it was uncertain whether the Frost Sword could fully withstand the attack.

Secondly, the aura of the Frost Sword was not completely compatible with the Ice Sky Splitting Slash martial technique.

Now, the aura of the Blizzard Sword obviously perfectly matched with the Ice Sky Splitting Slash.

Xiao Yi truly brought forth the Ice Sky Splitting Slash through the sword, unleashing its maximum power.

However, the joy on Xiao Yi's face did not last long.

With his current combat strength, he was confident he could have a fight with the Evernight Palace Master and Snow Blade Sect Master.

But he had no confidence in facing Bing Chengtian.

His senses were not wrong; Bing Chengtian had been forced back, but he definitely had not used his full strength.

Bing Chengtian was clearly holding back, afraid to really strike ruthlessly.

"I can't stay here any longer," Xiao Yi narrowed his eyes, calculating in his mind.

It was clear that Bing Chengtian, the Evernight Palace Master, and the Snow Blade Sect Master would not give up easily.

He needed to obtain the Ice Heart Holy Fruit quickly and make a distant escape.

"Sir," Xiao Yi looked coldly at Bing Chengtian and said, "What? If I am unwilling to trade with you, will you rob me?"

"The Ice Edge Conference is a grand event across the entire continent."

"As everyone knows, the Ice Heart Holy Fruit is the prize for the first place."

"Do you really want to commit the great taboo of the world and rob it by force?"

At this moment, the eyes of Bing Chengtian and the others were filled with horror when they looked at Xiao Yi.

A young man, who appeared to be in his early twenties, had a combat power that approached that of an Extreme Realm Expert, perhaps even surpassing it.

How earth-shattering would his growth be in the future?

Upon hearing this, Bing Chengtian came to a slight realization, "The great taboo of the world?"

"You think I care?"

"If it weren't for that woman protecting you, do you think you would be qualified to..."

Bing Chengtian's words were cut off suddenly as his expression changed, "Boy, stop right there."

On the other side, Xiao Yi caught the expressions of Bing Chengtian and the others.

Suddenly, he moved towards the Ice Heart Holy Fruit behind him.

He was confident he could take the Ice Heart Holy Fruit and leave safely.

However, just at this moment, nine figures suddenly leaped from within the wind and snow.

Before the people arrived, nine Sword Qi attacks tore through the sky towards him.

"Hmm?" Xiao Yi frowned.

The Sword Qi wasn't too strong; with a light wave of the Blizzard Sword in his hand, he had already blocked it.

But that block slowed his rush towards the Ice Heart Holy Fruit just by a hair's breadth.

Bing Chengtian reacted instantly, striking out with a palm from the air, forcing Xiao Yi back.

"Damn it," Xiao Yi's expression turned ugly; despite taking the palm strike, he was forced to retreat several meters and failed to successfully pluck the Ice Heart Holy Fruit.

Xiao Yi gritted his teeth, readying himself to dart forward once more in an attempt to harvest the Ice Heart Holy Fruit.

But the nine figures had already arrived.

The nine individuals, with their exceptional swordsmanship, joined forces to set up a Sword Array, surrounding Xiao Yi.

It was none other than the Sect Master, accompanied by the eight Sword Sect Elders.

"Bastards, get lost," Xiao Yi barked coldly.

His Blizzard Sword in hand, Xiao Yi fiercely slashed out.

The Sword Array was instantly shattered, and the Sect Master was sent flying.

The remaining eight elders each spat out fresh blood, clearly sustaining serious injuries.

"Huh?" Bing Chengtian and the others nearby expressed their shock, "What's going on?"

The Sword Sect's experts were actually confronting Xiao Yi, the genius of their own sect?

On another side, Bai Bingxue, Zhong Wuyou, and others, who had been farther away, now realized the battle that was unfolding here and hurried over swiftly.

Normally, with their strength, it would have been impossible for them to delve too deeply into the Land of Wind and Snow.

But Xiao Yi's previous strike had cleaved open the Land of Wind and Snow.

The fierce Gang Wind had not yet reconvened.

Thus, Bai Bingxue and the others had no trouble arriving on the scene.

"What's going on?" Bai Bingxue and the others frowned deeply.

"Sect Master, what are you doing?" The Great Elder also rushed over.

The Great Elder had been outside the Land of Wind and Snow and was confident in Xiao Yi's strength, so he hadn't paid much attention.

It wasn't until he arrived and saw the scene before him that his face turned to extreme anger.

"You're seeking death," Xiao Yi said coldly, his eyes fixed on the Sect Master and the clan elders.

It was because of their relentless obstruction that Xiao Yi had lost the best opportunity to obtain the Ice Heart Holy Fruit.

Xiao Yi knew very well that if he tried to approach the Ice Heart Holy Fruit now, the attacks from Bing Chengtian, the Everday Palace Master, and the Snow Blade Sect Master would come at him like a gale.

"Xiao Yi, as always, you show no respect for your seniors, arrogant and presumptuous," the Sect Master sneered.

"All eight Sect Elders have been injured by your sword."

"For such a rebellious act, I, as Sect Master, hereby announce your expulsion from the sect, effective today."

"You are no longer a disciple of the Sword Sect."

Xiao Yi's eyes narrowed coldly, "The same old story again."

To Xiao Yi, the Sect Master and the others were as insignificant as ants.

Once this affair was over, he would slowly settle both today's and previous scores with them.

Who would have expected the Sect Master to sneer, "Xiao Yi, do you think you can still be triumphant?"

"Not only am I expelling you from the sect today,"

"but I am also executing the orders of the Senior Swordswoman to reclaim the Ice Armor on your body."

"From this day forth, you have no ties whatsoever with our Sky-splitting Sword Sect."

"You're lying," Bai Bingxue sharply interjected, "My Master would never issue such an order."

"How dare you," the Sect Master snapped coldly, "I am the Sword Sect Master; since when is it your place to question me?"

Meanwhile, Bing Chengtian and the others appeared delighted.

"Tsk tsk, it turns out Xiao Yi is a pariah of the sect."

"Well then, don't blame us for being inhospitable."

Having said that, Bing Chengtian and the other two made their move.

They didn't need to know whether the Sect Master's words were true or false.

All they knew was that outside, the Sect Master was the openly recognized decision-maker of the Sky-splitting Sword Sect.

Since the Sect Master had made such a statement,

they would have no more reservations.

Even if they killed Xiao Yi today, the Sky-splitting Sword Maiden they feared would have no excuse to trouble them.

The three of them attacked simultaneously with fierce intensity, clearly holding nothing back.

Xiao Yi narrowed his eyes, "You really think I'm afraid of you?"

A surge of murderous intent suddenly filled the area.

Xiao Yi resolved to act; he had to obtain the Ice Heart Holy Fruit; it was the only way to save Elder Yi.

Anyone who dared to stand in his way would die!

The power of "Ice Mountain Fire Sea" within his body was already mobilized instantly.

Between his fingers, a ring that had seemed inconspicuous began to charge with energy—none other than the top-grade Primordial Artifact, the Furious Flame Ring.

The Fire Control Beast inside him furiously spat out four terrifying flames, ready to be unleashed at a single thought from Xiao Yi.

This was his true strength!

However, just as he was about to engage with Bing Chengtian and the others,

a figure appeared out of thin air, its speed reaching the extreme, even slightly faster than Bing Chengtian and the others.

The figure's unexpected arrival brought an unrivaled force, suddenly launching a palm strike toward Xiao Yi.

Before Xiao Yi could react, he was struck by the sneak attack and sent flying directly into the Extreme Cold Rift.

"Cold Ice Palace Master, you..." Xiao Yi suddenly spewed out a mouthful of blood and glared coldly at the figure that had appeared out of nowhere.

...

The first update.
