"Disperse." Yan Shiyi raised his hand.
Yan Li and the other two jumped down the hill with a swishing sound and disappeared into the dense forest.
Wang Ba landed on the top of a pine tree dozens of meters away from the peak. The soft pine branches under his feet made him look like a bird, swaying with the movements of the branches.
He glanced in the direction where Yan Li had disappeared, then looked at Yan Shiyi. He seemed to have finally understood something, and he seemed to have calmed down a little.
A rare expert in the world, after experiencing a series of blows, was still unyielding, standing tall between heaven and earth. His stalwart figure seemed like it would never fall, so he naturally gave off a strong pressure.
"How unfortunate." Yan Shiyi was not an ordinary person. He almost ignored the pressure. There was a devilish smile on his peerless face.
"It's indeed unfortunate that you ran into me." Wang Ba was arrogant. Even though his clothes were a little crooked after the battle with Li Yong and his body was not at its peak, he was still full of confidence. He was confident that he could kill everyone here.
Chuckling, Yan Shiyi said softly, "You think we're here to settle the score with the Lonely Moon Tower, but we're not. It's just like your current state. The power of hatred can make people reach a higher level. You think your hatred is greater than ours, but it's not. Hatred is just hatred. We don't hate you. "
"Then what is it?" Wang Ba asked.
"Gratitude."
"Gratitude?"
"How unfortunate." Yan Shiyi's long purple hair danced in the wind, like a long purple ribbon. "You have a great vessel, but your soul is so stupid."
Wang Ba said, "You better think about who you're talking to."
"You better think about who you're talking to." Yan Shiyi gently stroked his long hair. There was a narcissistic charm to him, and his voice was also very charming.
Wang Ba stretched his hand to his back. The broadsword, Overlord Wings, appeared behind him. He held it tightly and said in a deep voice, "I let you live last time because someone wanted you to."
"It's really not pretty!" Yan Shiyi's left wrist moved slightly, and the Purple Night Saber appeared in his hand. "Could it be that distorting the established facts is a Martial God's divine ability?"
"Pay for your arrogance!" Wang Ba roared and stomped his right foot. A destructive force spread from the pine branch under his foot. In the blink of an eye, the whole pine tree was turned into dust. There was even a slight explosion in the air. He pounced toward the peak of the mountain.
In the process of rushing forward, his entire body emitted a vigorous aura, accompanied by the sound of surging water. The void seemed to be surging with an invisible torrent, rolling towards Yan Shiyi.
Yan Shiyi laughed softly. The hand holding the blade shook, and the Purple Night Blade shot out with a qiang sound. With the hilt as the head, it collided with the torrent. The sound of the water instantly became chaotic, but it was as if it had collided with an extremely firm net. A dent appeared, and the Purple Night Blade was quickly and violently sent flying.
The blade drew a beautiful arc in the air, and then it fell back into Yan Shiyi's hand.
The moment his hand touched the hilt, purple True Qi flowed out. The purple True Qi was enshrouded beautifully, as if a flower had bloomed between his palm and the hilt. With a turn of his wrist, the Purple Night Blade drew a purple waterfall in the air, which was also in the shape of a flower.
Two flowers, one big and one small, bloomed freely.
Clang!
The Overlord Wing and the Purple Night Blade clashed for the first time.
Blade against blade, sparks flew everywhere. This was a battle of materiality, a fierce clash between substance and substance.
The other illusions were a purple flower and a transparent river.
The transparent river surged violently, each wave higher than the one before. Layer upon layer, it was like a towering, precipitous mountain.
The purple flower was elegant and calm, emitting an enchanting halo. Facing the heavy waves, it was as outstanding as a winter plum blossom in the snow.
This time, the two sides were equally matched.
But Wang Ba looked surprised. "So you were hiding in seclusion to break through the realm."
Even Li Yong's "Nine Snakes" couldn't move him. That was because Li Yong had only advanced from the "Spiritual Clarity" realm to the "Advanced Reflection" realm, while Yan Shiyi had advanced from the "Advanced Reflection" realm to the "Complete Reflection" realm.
There were three realms in cultivation: Spiritual Clarity, Reflection, and Complete Reflection.
At the Spiritual Clarity realm, one would break through the Cultivation Realm, and the Source Sea would be completely open, becoming a cultivator's natal Divine Palace. From then on, refining a True Artifact would be twice the result with half the effort.
At the Reflection realm, one would have obtained half of the true inheritance. The Source Sea was like a real ocean, with raging waves crashing on the shore. From then on, the True Qi would take shape and have "characteristics." For example, Li Yong's "Nine Snakes Sword" fully displayed the characteristics of a snake.
At the Complete Reflection realm, one's natal Divine Palace would reach the peak of Connate. The True Qi would be transparent and flawless, without any impurities. It would appear in the world like a real object, which was why it was called a Perfected Being. The top seven experts on the Asura List were all in this realm.
Now that Yan Shiyi had broken through to the peak of Cultivation, he had truly entered the ranks of the great experts.
Wang Ba wasn't moved by the breakthrough. What moved him was that Yan Shiyi was only in his twenties. In the current record, the fastest person to break through to the peak of Cultivation was Qin Que Yue, when he was 33 years old.
As for Wang Ba himself, he was 38 years old. He couldn't be considered a great expert before he was 38 years old. He was on the Asura List because of the "Great River Heart Technique" he had created. When he used it, it was like the Milky Way descending to the world, majestic and imposing.
Just like what was happening now.
However, the technique that Yan Shiyi had used was the 'Violet Night Divine Technique' that he had created himself.
Moreover, Wang Ba was 30 years old when he created the "Great River Heart Technique", while Yan Shiyi was probably not even 15 years old when he created the "Violet Night Divine Art".
With this comparison, it was clear who was superior.
For the first time, Wang Ba was shocked by the young man in front of him. He finally understood why that person thought so highly of him.
But it was too late, he thought.
The waves suddenly surged and pushed Yan Shiyi back. Wang Ba slowly closed his eyes and raised his head, bathing in the sunlight as if he was on a pilgrimage. After a while, his expression suddenly became strange. There was something unknown in his eyes, as if he had become another person.
"I'm wondering if you're the same person from back then," he said.
Yan Shiyi stopped and looked at him quietly. "What are you trying to say?"
Wang Ba said, "Back then, I was ordered to massacre a small fishing village in Bing State. Coincidentally, most of the people in that village had the surname Yan."
"I already knew that you were the one who gave the order, but I didn't expect you to have someone behind you." Yan Shiyi's face instantly lost all its warmth. "Tell me, who is that person?"
"So, my guess is right." Wang Ba smiled strangely. "If you want to know who it is, bring me Yan Li's head. Not only can I tell you who he is, but I can also point you to him."
