Chapter 967: The Ultimate Battle
"Hmm?"
Just as Ye Xuan was about to head out, he suddenly sensed another presence. This presence was hidden very well, but he still discovered it.
"It's the Spirit Ghost Emperor."
Ye Xuan instantly recognized this presence. He didn't expect this guy to have tracked him here.
"This is troublesome. It seems Senior Sister Ling is unaware she's been tracked."
Ye Xuan furrowed his brows.
"Found you."
At this moment, Ling Qianxue sensed Ye Xuan's position outside. Her pretty face immediately lit up with joy, and she quickly dashed toward where Ye Xuan was located.
"Hehe, it seems my efforts were not in vain."
The Spirit Ghost Emperor walked out from the darkness, a smile on his face.
"Senior Sister Ling, run!"
Ye Xuan transmitted his voice to Ling Qianxue.
"Run?"
Ling Qianxue hadn't yet reacted, but soon she also sensed an extremely powerful presence rapidly closing in from behind her, then passing through her vision.
It was the Spirit Ghost Emperor.
"Has this old guy been following me all along?"
Ling Qianxue finally realized, her expression turning extremely unpleasant. If that's the case, doesn't that mean she brought trouble to Ye Xuan?
"Thank you, little girl. For leading the way, I'll spare your life."
The Spirit Ghost Emperor grinned, then bypassed Ling Qianxue and headed straight for Ye Xuan.
"Boy, let's see where you'll run to now."
The Spirit Ghost Emperor laughed coldly, his eyes filled with murderous intent. This time, he wouldn't give Ye Xuan any chance of survival.
Woosh!
In the cave chamber, Ye Xuan exhaled a breath and took a deep breath, realizing that this time, he must fight to the death with the Spirit Ghost Emperor.
The opponent was a Netherworld person and a High-level Sealing Emperor. He had to exert every bit of his strength to have a chance at survival.
Otherwise, it was a dead end.
The Spirit Ghost Emperor struck with a palm, constructing a black light shield array centered on Ye Xuan's chamber, sealing all his escape routes with no chance to flee.
Entering the Selfless Realm, Ye Xuan drew his sword.
However, at that moment, the Spirit Ghost Emperor's figure suddenly halted. His initial posture to kill Ye Xuan with full force stopped completely. He looked abruptly behind him, discovering a sword piercing into his back at his heart.
While his attention was focused on Ye Xuan, he didn't expect a surprise attack from behind.
"Seems you want to die too."
The Spirit Ghost Emperor's sinister gaze landed on Ling Qianxue, who had just ambushed him.
"I won't let you harm him even a bit."
Ling Qianxue's pretty face was icy, her body emanating a glow like a radiant light. At this moment, she had unleashed the power of the Heaven Emperor Mirror to its fullest.
"Just you?"
The Spirit Ghost Emperor's lips curled with disdain. A little girl yet to reach the Sealing Emperor level was nothing in his eyes.
Woosh!
His figure suddenly vanished from the spot. In the next moment, a shadow appeared before Ling Qianxue, a Palm Blade brutally striking her neck.
Boom!
Under such a heavy blow, Ling Qianxue's body plummeted like a meteor, creating a large pit on the ground.
"Senior Sister!"
Ye Xuan's face turned grim, then raised the Void Emperor Sword, a white brilliance erupted from his body, pushing the Selfless Realm to its limits.
Simultaneously, the True Dragon Body fully manifested, dark golden dragon scales, a dragon tail, and dragon wings appeared in succession, exuding a formidable sense of power.
Ye Xuan was clearly in a furious state now.
"I won't forgive you!"
Suddenly, Ye Xuan swung the Void Emperor Sword, his figure transforming into a streak of light, seemingly wielding by instinct, slashing seventy-seven times in the void, each sword faster than the last.
This swordsmanship was profound and mysterious, the trajectory of each sword was exceptionally vague, creating countless illusions, impossible to achieve space-folding effects.
"Hmph, is this all you got?"
The Spirit Ghost Emperor placed his hands behind his back, seemingly unconcerned about Ye Xuan's attack. Although Ye Xuan's sword was fast, he casually evaded every time, unscathed.
Crack, crack, crack!
The surrounding boulders shattered like broken mirrors, disintegrating, while the ground beneath Ye Xuan's feet turned into a massive glass pane, riddled with fractures, collapsing in a roar.
When mastering the Space Rules to a certain extent, the power of Sword Qi merged with the Space Rules. The swordsmanship Ye Xian displayed had an inseparable bond with the Space Rules, its power reaching the zenith Ye Xuan could presently achieve.
The Spirit Ghost Emperor initially disregarded Ye Xuan, but gradually, Ye Xuan's sword speed accelerated to a point where even he began to lose sight.
Swish!
As the Spirit Ghost Emperor was taken aback, a flash of sword light—this slash was so rapid even he was caught off guard. Although he dodged hastily, the Sword Qi still grazed his face, nearly slicing off half his head.
"Looking for death!"
The Spirit Ghost Emperor retreated several steps, his face turning ashen. He hadn't taken Ye Xuan seriously from the start, but unexpectedly, this weakling managed to harm him.
"It's you looking for death. Selfless Sword Domain!"
There was no fear in Ye Xuan's eyes, showing only anger and an unwavering fighting spirit.
As soon as these words fell, the entire surrounding space trembled violently, Sword Qi forming into a Sword Domain. This was a world of swords where everything besides Sword Qi was shredded.
Countless Sword Qi, numbering in the thousands, gathered and shot out, fiercely striking the Spirit Ghost Emperor's body.
"What can such weak Sword Qi accomplish?"
The Spirit Ghost Emperor let the drizzle-like Sword Qi fall upon him, watching them burst apart like moths flying into a flame. In the end, only leaving a trail of radiant sparks.
"Is that so?"
A sharp intent flashed through Ye Xuan's eyes, then his hand clenched abruptly, space quaking once more. Three swords, seven swords, ten swords, even a hundred Sword Qi merged, the power surging, bombarding the Spirit Ghost Emperor.
"Not good!"
The Spirit Ghost Emperor was taken aback, this combination increased the power of Sword Qi several, even dozens of times. Originally harmless Sword Qi now became threatening.
Squelch, squelch!
This time, despite the Spirit Ghost Emperor's frantic dodging, the Sword Qi slashed across, leaving dozens of sword scars on his body. Among them, a particularly powerful Sword Qi pierced through his body, inky black blood spraying out.
