Ever since Tendon Changing Classic reached Grandmaster Realm, Happy's strength had increased by leaps and bounds. This time, he was filled with confidence when he faced Empress Yin.
But it was precisely because of this that Happy came to a gloomy realization. Even Empress Yin, who was at the peak of Myth Realm, had a hard time making him feel threatened.
Even if he did not activate his true origin aura, with Tendon Changing Classic's ability to reduce damage by 10% after he mastered it, Happy could already fight against Zhu Yuyan head-on.
When it came to defense, with Indestructible Body, Tendon Changing Classic, a full set of fourth-echelon demon vessels, and his astonishing Affinity, he could already withstand Empress Yin's attacks.
Wave-like Subtle Steps was incredibly profound, and his movements did not lose to Empress Yin's.
With these two, along with Recondite Steel Heavy Sword and Great Demonic World Destruction Art, once Happy left the Buddha statues, he actually managed to fight on equal grounds with Empress Yin.
Sky Demon Aura!
Recondite Steel Heavy Sword!
Even though the aura caused Happy's movement speed to be slightly slower, he changed his sword momentum in time and swung his Recondite Steel Heavy Sword in a defensive stance. He easily blocked all of Empress Yin's attacks, and Recondite Steel Heavy Sword's parrying success rate was incredibly high.
"Sect Master Zhu, you don't have to show mercy to me …"
Happy mocked her while he parried her attacks.
"Brat, I'll pull out all your teeth!"
A longsword that shone with a chilling light was drawn from the demonic figure in the fog. It instantly turned into thousands of cold stars that stabbed at Happy from different directions.
Happy froze a little.
He originally just wanted to test Empress Yin and provoke her, but he did not expect that she would still be preserving her strength. Before this, he had never heard of Empress Yin using a sword technique.
It was a pretty good achievement for him to be able to force Empress Yin Zhu Yuyan to use her weapon.
At the same time he felt delighted, Happy soon felt endless pressure.
Empress Yin's sword technique was strange and unfathomable, and her speed was astonishing. With Sky Demon Aura, her threat instantly increased by several fold.
Ding!
Ding! Ding!
Happy's Recondite Steel Heavy Sword was heavy to begin with, and his speed could not compare to Empress Yin's. Right now, he was even slower because of Sky Demon Aura.
Empress Yin's sudden change to a sword technique caused Happy, who had gotten used to Empress Yin's fighting style, to panic.
'So fast!
It was too fast!
Even though he tried his best to sense the direction of Empress Yin's sword momentum and tried his best to block her attack, he was still limited by the limits of Recondite Steel Heavy Sword and Great Demonic World Destruction Art. Even if he focused on defending, he could not completely fend off Empress Yin's offense. Soon, a few bloody gashes appeared on his body.
Puff!
The appearance of the wound shocked Happy, but at the same time, he could not help but feel a little relieved.
Originally, he had come to search for Shi Zhixuan because he wanted to sense the profound and unfathomable thing while he was in the midst of life and death. He had come here for the breakthrough of Marrow Cleansing Classic, but after his strength increased by leaps and bounds, he did not feel any pressure when he faced Empress Yin, so how could he immerse himself in this so-called life and death situation?
Right now, after Empress Yin switched to a sword technique, even though she had become even fiercer and more dangerous, she still managed to make Happy a little nervous.
Comprehension!
Where was the comprehension of life and death?
When the seventeenth wound appeared on his body, while he withstood Empress Yin's violent attacks, he sensed the changes in his body.
But to his disappointment …
Marrow Cleansing Classic was as dark as ever. It was still at Level 1.00, and it would not budge even if it was drenched in blood and looked incredibly pathetic.
"What are we going to do?"
Sweat broke out on Happy's forehead.
Empress Yin and Shi Zhixuan were the strongest evil cult elites he could think of in the Chinese server. If he could not understand the profound secret of being in the midst of life and death from them and reach the requirements Mad Monk mentioned, there might be no one in the Chinese server who could help him improve his Marrow Cleansing Classic.
"Am I really going to die once?"
Happy felt a little resigned.
Suddenly …
As Empress Yin's indistinct figures that manifested into thousands of illusory figures suddenly retreated from all directions, Sky Demon Aura also disappeared.
"Hmm?"
The pressure on Happy was reduced, and he felt relaxed, as if all the pressure on him had suddenly been removed.
But when Empress Yin appeared on a broken Eternal Tower nearby, Happy's pupils shrank.
Once Empress Yin reappeared, she did not say anything.
Zhu Yuyan's expression was red and dark, and she looked as if she was about to cry. She had not been able to kill a Shaolin Temple secular disciple even after such a long time, and it was difficult for her to accept it, and she felt incredibly angry.
Her gaze was already as cold as ice. She looked down on Happy with a cruel and callous gaze.
"Very good."
Empress Yin's voice became even colder. While she spoke, she gently stretched her arms. The longsword in her hands was like a black ray of light, and it caused the area around her to instantly turn much darker.
"It has been a long time since anyone has been able to force me to draw my sword."
"…"
"It has also been a long time since anyone has been able to force me to this extent. I have to admit that you have indeed made me look at you in a different light. If you were a disciple of the sacred order, how good would that be? What a pity!" When she faced an outstanding righteous disciple with such strength and talent, an uncontrollable killing intent that wanted to destroy everything rose in Empress Yin's heart.
"Heart Demon's Sword!"
As Empress Yin slowly uttered those four words, the entire dimension seemed to have frozen for a moment because of the fierce light that suddenly grew stronger in her eyes.
The black light pierced through Happy's body in one go.
"That's …"
At the moment Happy met Empress Yin's gaze, the black sword light seemed to have overlapped with Empress Yin's gaze. It fused with an incredibly destructive sword will and the awe-inspiring might of a Myth Realm elite, and Happy did not have the time to raise his hand to parry it.
Thud!
His body was pierced through like a twig by a fierce black light.
Blood gushed out of his chest and back.
At the moment Happy was struck in the chest, a snow-white and petite figure shot over from the distance like a startled bird. She stopped on the empty ground in front of Empress Yin Zhu Yuyan.
Once she landed, she took two quick steps forward, but she immediately stopped.
The woman with the white veil cast Empress Yin a complicated glance, then cast a glance at Happy, who was swaying on his feet because his chest was pierced by a longsword. Her gaze first turned dark, and she released a grave and pleasant sigh. Then, she suddenly noticed that a barely noticeable hint of paleness had appeared on Empress Yin's face. Her heart trembled, and she turned her head around to cast Happy a few more glances. She could not help but let out a surprised and bewildered gasp.
"I didn't expect that Empress Yin, who has not used a weapon for years, would be forced to use Sky Demon Sword Technique by a junior!"
"Hmph! Girl, you have pretty good judgment. "
Empress Yin snorted coldly in disdain.
"But this dying brat is not weaker than you. I don't know who he inherited his qi realm from, but he's very difficult to deal with. Even I had to spend a lot of effort to deal with him."
"… What a pity."
There was no way Shi Feixuan could not tell that the unknown young martial artist whose body was pierced by Empress Yin still had Empress Yin's sword will lingering in his body, and his mind seemed to have broken down. He was no longer under his control. No matter how outstanding he was in the past, this person was done for.
"I didn't expect that the mighty Empress Yin would actually use Heart Demon's Sword, which uses up a lot of true origin in Sky Demon Sword Technique against a junior."
"Your mistress has spent a lot of effort on you. She actually told you about Heart Demon's Sword." A hint of wariness shone in Empress Yin's eyes.
Shi Feixuan drew her longsword with a reverse grip.
"Heart Demon's Sword is the most domineering move in Sky Demon Sword Technique. It fuses the user's will, true origin, and sword will, and its power is peerless. Even Kind Boathouse's Sword Classic has to be trained to Clear Sword Heart before we can somewhat block it. There is no way I wouldn't understand the ultimate technique Empress Yin relied on to become famous in the past."
She stopped talking for a moment before Shi Feixuan's tone changed.
"Besides, I know that once you use Heart Demon's Sword, not only will you use up a lot of true origin, your strength will be reduced slightly, and your willpower will also be shaken and injured. Right now, it will be difficult for you to bring out even seven-tenths of your usual strength."
"Hmph!"
There was no way Empress Yin would not understand the meaning behind Shi Feixuan's words. When she saw Shi Feixuan pointing her longsword at her, she quirked an eyebrow. "Even if I only have half of my strength left, I can still kill a girl like you with just a flip of my hand."
"Then I'll have to offend you!"
Shi Feixuan shouted softly. She swung her longsword, and a sword river filled with dazzling light and danger instantly appeared in front of Empress Yin.
"Good! As expected of Kind Boathouse's Fan Suqing's prized disciple. I didn't expect that your Clear Sword Heart would increase again! "
Empress Yin's expression changed. She did not advance, but retreated.
Shi Feixuan had already reached Myth Realm a few years ago. Right now, her sword technique had increased again, and it naturally shocked Empress Yin. She finally sensed a threat.
"Thank you for your praise, senior!"
Shi Feixuan spoke courteously, but her sword technique did not weaken in the slightest. Instead, it became even fiercer as she pressed forward.
Zhu Yuyan, the mighty sect master of Yin Weed Faction, was forced into a disadvantageous position by Shi Feixuan with just one slash, and she had to retreat into the depths of Dafo Temple.
The two women completely forgot about Happy, who had not died on the spot despite being struck by the sword.
In Empress Yin's eyes, Happy was bound to die once he was struck by his Heart Demon Sword.
Shi Feixuan also did not believe that a person with Empress Yin's destructive sword will in his body and a mental breakdown could be saved. Right now, she only wanted to seize the chance to take revenge for the unknown, young righteous disciple while Empress Yin's strength was greatly reduced.
What she did not know was …
Three seconds after they left, the sword will that remained in Happy's body rampaged about for a while. Once it destroyed a lot of his meridian systems, it finally disappeared completely.
But …
That sword will did not manage to kick the dying Happy into the cycle of reincarnation.
Tendon Changing Classic.
Due to Tendon Changing Classic's existence, Happy's meridian system had a much greater capacity and tenacity than a normal person's.
The sword will crashed into Happy's body and wreaked havoc, but it just so happened to stimulate the true origin in Happy's body fortification.
When his true origin enveloped him, the sword will quickly crumbled and disintegrated.
But Happy had to give up most of his true qi and qi for it. His face was pale, and he became incredibly weak.
The weakness in his body caused Happy to suffer from the pressure on his will even more.
The awe-inspiring might contained Empress Yin's strongest strike at full strength, and it disintegrated Happy's will with the force of a bulldozer.
It was like the sun going up against melted snow.
Darkness was destroyed.
Happy's weak body practically crushed his final shred of consciousness. While he was in a daze, he felt as if there was a voice singing a lullaby by his ears, and it made him fall asleep.
