Chapter 2315: Chapter 2311: One Sword Against Three Opponents

Step...

Xiao Yi took a step forward. It looked like a simple stride, yet in an instant he placed Xia Yiming and Dongfang Wu behind his back.

Hundred Faces Venerable Sage, along with the Assassins ambushed around them, had already taken the initiative to strike.

Xiao Yi’s step was half a beat slow, but it was just enough to meet their attack head-on.

Hundred Faces Venerable Sage was the fastest. The strange sharp sword in his hand lunged first.

Wind and snow gathered in Xiao Yi’s hand, condensing into a Wind Snow Sword.

Clang...

The two swords collided in that instant, ringing out a sharp clang.

"Hm?" Hundred Faces Venerable Sage’s figure floated, looking down at Xiao Yi, a trace of surprise flashing across his face. "Kid, your aura suddenly soared, you’ve reached the Sixth Layer of Saint Sovereign Realm?"

"Hmph, but just that is far from enough for you to brag. You’re still not this old man’s match."

Buzz...

The sword in Hundred Faces Venerable Sage’s hand let out a strange hum, and a surge of Yin Cold Energy exploded forth and blasted out.

That eerie sword suddenly turned into an incredibly soft swimming serpent, slipping through Xiao Yi’s sword and striking straight toward Dongfang Wu behind him.

"Hm?" Xiao Yi frowned, retreated a step, and reversed his grip for a slash.

Clang...

An extremely fast sword strike instantly blocked that flexible serpent.

It looked like a swimming snake, yet it was still as sharp and hard as iron.

Hiss...

Within the Yin Cold Energy, a razor-sharp aura swept at Xiao Yi’s back at extreme speed.

Hiss hiss hiss hiss...

The sword in Hundred Faces Venerable Sage’s hand suddenly turned into countless sword bodies, countless hard serpents. The sharp sword light and chilling aura were like one venomous man-eating snake after another, mouths agape.

Hundred Faces Venerable Sage’s methods were indeed bizarre.

Xiao Yi’s reaction was extremely fast; the Ice and Snow Sword in his hand danced like a phantom.

Dense Sword Intent easily blocked these sword serpents one by one.

"What formidable Sword Dao." Hundred Faces Venerable Sage’s expression shifted slightly. "Didn’t expect this greenhorn to be a fierce Sword Cultivator as well."

Whoosh...

Suddenly, a sky-breaking sound roared from afar.

It was a small stone.

Xiao Yi reversed his sword again, ready to block it.

Yet the instant that little stone blasted over, it carried a terrifying force of ten thousand jun.

Such a fingertip-sized stone actually weighed no less than a ten-thousand-zhang mountain?

In the distance, Ten Thousand Stones Venerable Sage snapped impatiently, "Ignore that brat, kill the Dongfang Family girl first."

"Fine." Hundred Faces Venerable Sage answered, and the strange sword in his hand turned into countless serpents once more, lashing out.

Bang...

The Ice and Snow Sword in Xiao Yi’s hand had already been pierced the instant it touched that small stone.

The Ice and Snow Sword in Xiao Yi’s hand condensed again. One hand held the sword, the other lightly shook back with a palm strike. "Retreat."

Xia Yiming and Dongfang Wu behind him were immediately shaken back.

Xiao Yi gripped his sword one-handed, blocking Hundred Faces Venerable Sage once more, and coldly shouted without turning his head, "Yiming, leave this to me. You protect Miss Dongfang."

At this level of battle, even the slightest residual force was far beyond what an ordinary person like Dongfang Wu could withstand.

"Yes, Palace Master." Xia Yiming accepted the order, scooped Dongfang Wu up, and retreated in quick steps.

"Trying to run?" Hundred Faces Venerable Sage let out a cold laugh and slapped out with a palm.

Terrifying, bizarre Yin Cold Energy spread out, and wherever it passed, sword serpents shot out to devour.

"Hmph." Xia Yiming snorted coldly, his figure flickering as he easily slipped through the blockade and attacks of those Sword Snakes.

Xia Yiming’s face was filled with confidence and composure. His nimble figure retreated several hundred steps away with Dongfang Wu in his arms in an instant.

At this moment, the Yin Cold Energy abruptly halted.

Ahead, Xiao Yi had already turned defense into offense. With a single slash, Hundred Faces Venerable Sage had no time to pursue and could only draw his sword to block.

"Damn it, what a powerful Sword Cultivator." Hundred Faces Venerable Sage’s face grew somewhat unsightly.

His methods were famous for being unfathomably strange.

Yet against this young man’s exquisite swordsmanship, they were being dismantled one after another.

"Hmph." In the distance, Wind-cutting Saber Venerable snorted coldly. "Since this kid insists on blocking the way, then we kill him first."

"Agreed." Hundred Faces Venerable Sage nodded, swinging the sword in his hand as waves of Sword Snakes lunged at Xiao Yi.

Xiao Yi swung his sword to block, effortlessly.

One man and one sword, surrounded by three Peak of Seventh Layer Saint Sovereign Realm experts and the Assassins of Supreme Tower, yet he handled it with ease.

Several hundred steps away.

Xia Yiming set Dongfang Wu down, his expression icy to the extreme. "These bastards dare offend the Palace Master. If the Palace Master didn’t want to use them as practice right now, I’d have them bleed on the spot."

As for Xia Yifeng’s instructions, Xia Yiming had always obeyed them beyond his own life.

It was plain to see Xia Yiming had never once shown a hint of fear, even though the opponents were the infamous Assassins of Supreme Tower and three Peak of Seventh Layer Saint Sovereign Realm experts.

Such confidence was not something ordinary young Heavenly Talents could possess.

Beside him, Dongfang Wu’s expression was similarly calm, without the slightest fear. Instead she let out a soft laugh. "Facing that rumored master, this time Supreme Tower’s Assassins really kicked an iron plate."

Ahead, Xiao Yi was fighting Hundred Faces Venerable Sage without falling behind in the slightest.

Hundred Faces Venerable Sage already wore a look of shock. With his strength, he actually couldn’t do a thing to the sword in this young man’s hand?

Moreover, Hundred Faces Venerable Sage was no ordinary person. He clearly sensed the changes in Xiao Yi’s eyes—that kind of icy cold, that faint Demon-like bloodlust.

This kind of change, this kind of aura—he felt he should remember what it was, yet for the moment could not recall.

"Wind-cutting Slash." In the distance, Wind-cutting Saber Venerable swung out a blade, a Heavenly Blade edge tearing through the sky.

Xiao Yi hurriedly raised his sword to block.

Bang...

With a deafening bang, Xiao Yi’s figure was blasted back a hundred meters.

"What a brutal Sky-splitting Slash." Xiao Yi nodded. "Wind-cutting Saber Venerable truly lives up to his name."

"You’re not bad either." In the distance, Wind-cutting Saber Venerable no longer stood there calmly. Battle intent lit his face as he struck in an instant.

Working together with Hundred Faces Venerable Sage, one blade and one sword surrounded Xiao Yi in a joint assault.

Xiao Yi blocked with a single sword, but within just a moment he fell to a disadvantage.

"Fourth Ice Pattern, open." Xiao Yi shouted silently in his heart.

Relying solely on his current Cultivation and Demonic State, there was no way he could handle the combined assault of two Peak of Seventh Layer Saint Sovereign Realm Martial Artists.

He could only activate the Fourth Ice Pattern.

The Fourth Ice Pattern was precisely what the Ice Netherworld Dao constructed.

Strictly speaking, techniques like the Ice Storm Scripture and Ice Illusion Body, passed down from the Ice Venerable Inheritance, were even more suited to being driven by the Ice Netherworld Dao.

Naturally, he chose to open the Fourth Ice Pattern.

Bang...

The aura around Xiao Yi’s body soared in an instant.

"Impossible." Hundred Faces Venerable Sage’s face changed. "This kid’s aura soared to the Peak of Seventh Layer Saint Sovereign Realm."

In the distance, Ten Thousand Stones Venerable Sage could no longer stand idle. "There’s something off about this brat. Don’t drag this out, kill him with full force."

Whoosh... Ten Thousand Stones Venerable Sage also struck in an instant.

The three Peak of Seventh Layer Saint Sovereign Realm experts attacked together.

Boom...

Though Ten Thousand Stones Venerable Sage was an old man, the muscles bursting from his bare torso were terrifying to the extreme. With one punch, the force far surpassed ten thousand jun.

The roar in the mere fist wind would be enough to pound any Martial Artist below Late-stage Saint Sovereign Realm into paste, let alone that full-force punch.

Yet Xiao Yi only raised his sword to block, a faint smile tugging at his lips.

Clang...

Boom...

Ten Thousand Stones Venerable Sage’s heavy punch slammed into the Ice and Snow Sword. With Xiao Yi as the center, everything within a hundred li was blasted to powder in an instant.

Only Xiao Yi and that Ice and Snow Sword at the center remained completely unharmed.
