When the saber Qi suddenly locked on to him, Zhong Ming's expression changed. He looked at the broken saber and found it somewhat familiar. However, he did not know where he had seen it before.
When Ye Tianze swung his saber, the boundless saber Qi suddenly startled Zhong Ming awake. His expression changed drastically. "Heaven … Heaven Saber … you … you …"
This saber move was so fast that the naked eye could not follow it. The saber Qi turned into a crescent moon and chopped down. It was like the water of the heavenly river, slanting down. The seven-colored ghost head could not dodge in time and was chopped in half.
The boundless Dao Tool poured into the seven-colored smoke miasma. Zhong Ming had not expected Ye Tianze to learn the Heaven Saber so quickly.
Furthermore, compared to Hong Ye's Heaven Saber, Ye Tianze's saber was even more horrifying. When the saber Qi chopped down, the smoke miasma split in half.
The smoke miasma turned into countless tiny bugs that fled in all directions. Some even attacked Ye Tianze. However, when the saber Qi swept over and entered the bodies of the bugs, they exploded in midair.
It was like setting off firecrackers, giving off crackling sounds.
"I'll fight it out with you!" Zhong Ming's voice came from all directions.
Ye Tianze was stunned for a moment before he reacted. "Bug Dao Clone? You do have some skills! "
Normally, Zhong Ming would be gnashing his teeth in anger. After all, on the second floor, ninety percent of the demonic geniuses feared Zhong Ming's poison. No one dared to approach him.
The seven-colored smoke miasma could corrode any physical body. Furthermore, Zhong Ming cultivated a special Cultivation Technique that allowed him to enter the poisonous bugs of the smoke miasma. As long as one-third of the poisonous bugs were still alive, he could regenerate.
However, Zhong Ming no longer had the time to be angry, as he could no longer keep his life. Fortunately, although the Heaven Saber was powerful, Ye Tianze had not reached the level of the Heaven Saber Old Man.
Although the saber Qi destroyed two-thirds of the smoke miasma's poisonous bugs, one-third remained.
Like mist, they drifted toward Ye Tianze, following his fleshly body as they burrowed into Ye Tianze's body.
Even if it was only a single pore, it was still a great path to the heavens for the venomous insects. If an ordinary person was not prepared, they could only be devoured by the venomous insects and die.
Zhong Ming had used this move countless times to kill many strong enemies, and those who knew of this move were already dead.
However, when his poisonous insects drilled into Ye Tianze's body, he saw an extremely strange scene in his countless eyes.
"Are you happy?" Ye Tianze's voice sounded.
Zhong Ming suddenly felt a strong sense of danger. He immediately urged the poisonous insects to escape from Ye Tianze's body. However, Ye Tianze's voice sounded again.
"It's too late. Since you want to come in so badly, you might as well stay here!" As Ye Tianze activated the Cloudy Heaven Incantation, a heaven-defying will burst out of his body.
All the poisonous insects had their wills wiped out by this powerful will. Then, the five elements supported each other, and the power of wind and thunder swept through his meridians.
"You … seven spiritual energies. You … you … you are … Ye Tianze!"
The cutting power of the lightning and wind cut those poisonous insects. They were directly refined. As the boundless spiritual energy circulated in his body, it turned into the purest spiritual energy, nourishing his seven inner cores.
Suddenly, the feeling of a breakthrough appeared again. Ye Tianze immediately sat down cross-legged on the ground and circulated the Cloudy Heaven Incantation, suppressing the second wave of breakthrough.
After about an hour, the peak of the breakthrough was finally suppressed, and Ye Tianze's strength had improved significantly.
He looked at the cave in front of him. With Zhong Ming's death and Ye Tianze's absorption of the seven-colored smoke, the cave became clear.
At this moment, Desolation suddenly flew out and rushed into the depths of the cave. Ye Tianze quickly followed. This little foodie must have found something delicious. Otherwise, he wouldn't be so active.
When he arrived, he found that the little fellow was in a jar, gnawing on something. Its entire body was in the jar, leaving only its tail.
Ye Tianze lifted him up and found that the jar was full of all kinds of poisonous creatures. However, they were imprisoned in the jar and couldn't come out.
Desolation kept struggling in his hand, as if it wanted to eat all the poisonous creatures. The poisonous creatures, which were originally baring their fangs and brandishing their claws, sensed Desolation's aura and curled up in the jar, releasing all kinds of venom, forming a poisonous fog.
Ye Tianze was helpless. He immediately stuffed Desolation in. He had no interest in these poisonous creatures.
Zhong Ming was also dismal. With his methods, even if he entered the third level, there would be few people who dared to provoke him.
But he just had to run into Ye Tianze. Not only was he impervious to poison, but his greatest trump card, the Insect Path Clone, was also completely restrained by Ye Tianze's Cloudy Heaven Art.
If it were Hong Ye, she would have been gnawed to the bone long ago.
Ye Tianze walked out of the cave. Although that saber strike had consumed a lot of energy, he had absorbed most of Zhong Ming's cultivation. His strength had been strengthened once more.
He didn't know how many times Zhong Ming had broken through, but he definitely wasn't weak.
After Desolation finished eating, Ye Tianze went to the entrance of the cave. He pretended to be injured and weak. He opened the cave door and slowly walked out.
"Why … why is it him?"
The people outside had long been waiting for the result. There were a total of five people who had come with them. Zhou Ya and Liao Ye weren't one of them.
"Could it be … the Old Poison … the Old Poison was … killed by him?"
When they saw Ye Tianze walk out, they were shocked. They had thought that the one who would walk out would be the old poison, Zhong Ming.
"This fellow … looks like he's poisoned. It seems he really did kill the Old Poison. What a pity. The Old Poison's illustrious name actually died at the hands of a junior."
Ye Tianze sat cross-legged on the ground. He looked like he had been poisoned. His face was covered in a seven-colored miasma.
"Should we do something?"
The five people hiding in various places were very vigilant.
But when they saw Ye Tianze expelling the poison, they couldn't help but attack. Two of them suddenly attacked Ye Tianze, one from the front and one from the back. It looked like they were cooperating, but in reality, they were acting at the same time.
As for the remaining three, they didn't move. But when they saw that Ye Tianze didn't seem to be on guard, they regretted not attacking.
"Buzz!"
With a flash of saber light, the two attackers suddenly changed directions. They swept past Ye Tianze and heavily smashed into the ground.
When they landed, the expressions of the three people hiding in the distance changed greatly. That was because the two of them had been cut in half. They struggled on the ground for a long time before dying.
Ye Tianze vigilantly glanced at the outside world. He ignored the two corpses and continued to pretend that he was expelling the poison.
The three people who were hiding in the distance were dumbfounded.
"Skyblade!"
The three of them felt the majestic saber intent from earlier.
They knew that this was a trap. A trap prepared for them. If they had attacked earlier, they would've been cut in half like the other two.
Although they suspected that this was Ye Tianze's last resort, they didn't stay. Just like when they came, they quietly retreated.
Only Zhou Ya and Liao Ye didn't leave. They hid in a farther place, waiting for the result.
Ye Tianze being able to come out had indeed given them a fright. But when they saw that his face was poisoned, they sighed with relief.
But the scene in front of them made their hair stand on end, especially when they saw that saber light. They simply couldn't believe that Ye Tianze's saber strike was even more clean and neat than Hong Ye's.
Seeing that the two people hiding had quietly retreated, Ye Tianze walked over and took their Universe Rings. Then he shouted in the direction of Zhou Ya and Liao Ye, "Get the hell out here!"
The two of them exchanged glances. They really wanted to flee, but when they thought about how they would still encounter Ye Tianze in the future, they gave up on that idea.
"Did you guys sell my information to Zhong Ming?" Ye Tianze glanced at the two of them.
If Liao Ye didn't hesitate, he would've sold Zhou Ya out. Indeed, he hadn't sold out Ye Tianze. It was Zhou Ya who had sold out Ye Tianze in order to kill with a borrowed knife.
Zhou Ya glared fiercely at Liao Ye, feeling very uneasy. He said, "I'm willing to pay half of the resources to compensate for your … loss."
Ye Tianze would not let these two fellas off so easily. Given his current situation, although he was fearless on the second floor, if he encountered the Sky Sword Elder or Madam Hong Yan, these two fellas could help him sound them out. Ye Tianze's expression changed.
He was just thinking about using the Deterring Eye to subdue these two when the sound of something breaking through the air suddenly came.
Ye Tianze turned around and slashed down with his saber. With a clang, a huge force came from the saber and flipped him over.
He took a closer look and found that it was a red light that had attacked him. This red light was pushed back a few feet by his saber. Before he could get up, it suddenly split into twelve red immortal swords and formed a sword formation that surrounded him and turned into a sword domain.
Within the sword domain, sword qi interweaved and shot toward Ye Tianze, landing on his body. It was as if he was being chopped up, leaving countless sword wounds on his body.
What surprised him the most was that the wounds left by the swords were unable to heal, and the blood kept flowing. Even his spiritual force couldn't seal the wounds.
In just an instant, he was covered in blood.
Normally, Ye Tianze would've used the Spherical Heaven Battle Body immediately, but he didn't do so this time.
He immediately opened the Primeval Umbrella and blocked the densely packed Sword Qi. He then activated the Rebirth Pearl in his Wood Inner Core and stopped the bleeding. However, the recovery of the wound was more than ten times slower than usual.
"Hongyan Sword Formation!"
Zhou Ya and Liao Ye exchanged glances after seeing this.
They had guessed who was coming, but they didn't expect it to be so soon.
As expected, while Ye Tianze was trapped by the sword formation, a purple-robed lady flew over from the distance. Even before she arrived, the oppressive might emanating from her body could already be felt, causing Liao Ye and Zhou Ya's faces to pale.
If it weren't for Hongye, which delayed the hundred years, Madam Hongyan's strength would've been more than twice as strong as it was now.
She would've at least reached the fourth floor, or even the fifth floor like the Sky Saber Elder.
