"My imperial sister actually ran over there!"
In the southern desolate mountain plains, there were temporary seats of honor. Originally, Prince Crimson Firmament, Bai Yueqing, goddess Xi Ye and company were seated in the seats of honor. Luo Huo 'er naturally had the right to sit there, but she was mixed in with the crowd.
"Brother Chuyun, it's said that you have a good eye. What do you think the outcome of the battle between Yi Yun and Ye Yi will be?" asked Prince Crimson Firmament.
Sitting beside Prince Crimson Firmament was Chu Yunjian. Although he had lost to Chi Zhuiyun, no one underestimated him.
Chu Yunjian said, "Third Prince, things like foresight are just rumors. I often make mistakes too. However, there doesn't seem to be much suspense in this battle. The result should be Yi Yun's victory."
Although Chu Yunjian did not know what Ye Yi's strength was, Yi Yun's strength was there for all to see. How could the number two figure of the Eternal Eventide Sea defeat a monster like Yi Yun? The possibility was extremely low!
"Oh? There's not much suspense? " A female voice sounded. Beside Prince Crimson Firmament sat a beautiful woman with black hair and purple eyes. Her forehead and neck were adorned with metal rings. Just by sitting there, she was like the source of darkness, exuding a distant and mysterious feeling.
She was the goddess of the Eternal Night Clan — Seer.
The second strongest person of the Luo clan against the second strongest person of the Eternal Eventide clan. They were at the same level of strength, yet he said that there was no suspense? How arrogant!
Xi Ye said coldly, "Your Luo clan and White Fox clan have been turned upside down by a single Chi Zhuiyun. What right do you have to say such words? If you could defeat Chi Zhuiyun yourself, would there be a need for us to come here?"
The Eternal Eventide clan was on par with the Luo clan with just a few million people. Furthermore, Xi Ye was the Eternal Eventide clan's goddess, so she was naturally displeased that Chu Yunjian had said such words that belittled the Eternal Eventide Sea.
"You must be Chu Yunjian. As a Dao Manifestation realm warrior, you were defeated by a half-step Dao Manifestation realm Chi Zhuiyun. Yet, you have the guts to criticize me here."
Xi Ye said bluntly. Chu Yunjian fell silent. Being defeated by Chi Zhuiyun was indeed a stain on Chu Yunjian's life. He was powerless to refute her.
…
At this moment, in the arena, Yi Yun and Ye Yi were a thousand feet apart. The surrounding cheers from the Luo clan were resounding.
"Yi Yun, kill that punk from the Eternal Eventide Sea!"
"Yi Yun will definitely win!"
The spectators were all cultivators, and their voices could pierce through the clouds and crack rocks. When Ye Yi heard this, he frowned. He had not even fought yet, but he was already being targeted like this. Naturally, he was unhappy. "I really did not expect that a group of fiends would actually cheer for a human like you. However, cheering is meaningless. The result of the battle still depends on strength."
"A human? You're not human? "
With sword in hand, Yi Yun looked coldly at Ye Yi. In the Ten Thousand Fey Empyrean Heaven, humans were few in number and weak. They were supposed to unite and fight together, but the Eternal Eventide Sea, which was a race of humans with only slightly different eye colors, had taken the initiative to draw a line with the human race. It was as though being on par with the human race was an insult to them.
"Don't compare me to you. We are a race chosen by the gods, and you are just a race that has been abandoned. The probability of a lowly human genius being born is less than one in ten billion, tens of millions of times lower than us. You can be considered one of the best, and you have luckily won your own status. But there are even more humans that are born lowly. Their lifespan is only a hundred years, and they are no different from ants."
As Ye Yi spoke, he drew his two black sabers. The two sabers resembled a pair of wings.
As for Yi Yun, he slowly sheathed his sword. "Lowly? Lowly? Ants? " Yi Yun shook his head. "You share the same origins as the human race. So that's how you view humans."
Ye Yi could hear Yi Yun's sarcasm, but he did not respond. Instead, he said coldly, "By sheathing your sword now, are you admitting defeat?"
"Admitting defeat? No, I'm just changing my weapon. I think using a sword to deal with you is too polite. "
As Yi Yun spoke, he took out a rectangular piece of metal from his interspatial ring. It was a Royal Seal, and its name was the Heaven Upheaval Seal. Back in the Tai Ah Divine City, Yi Yun had once used the Heaven Upheaval Seal as a weapon when he participated in the rookie ranking competition. Back then, Yi Yun was not proficient in controlling his strength, so he was afraid that he would kill his opponent if he used a saber. With the passage of time, Yi Yun's control over his strength became more and more proficient, so the Heaven Upheaval Seal was no longer needed.
"This is?"
Ye Yi frowned. He could sense that the rectangular piece of metal that Yi Yun had taken out was likely a Royal Seal weapon that had been refined. However, the material used to make the weapon was extremely poor. Furthermore, the array formations engraved on it were extremely clumsy!
"This is called a brick. It should be enough to deal with you. I think I've been keeping too low a profile recently, to the point of being reduced to a substitute. It wasn't easy for me to get on stage, but all sorts of Tom, Dick, and Harry are barking in front of me."
Yi Yun said languidly. He had already made up his mind to become Felicitous Rain Lord's disciple. If he wanted to be noticed by a Divine Lord, he naturally could not keep a low profile.
"What did you say!?" Ye Yi's eyes flashed coldly. "You are courting death!"
Ye Yi was infuriated. This human was actually belittling him. He did not know how the word 'death' was written!
"Weng!"
Sabers whistled as they tore through the wind. Ye Yi's two sabers shot out thousands of saber beams that filled the surroundings!
Saber Domain!
Saber Domain was a Dao Domain of sabers. Saber Dao was also a type of Dao. It was inferior to Yin-Yang Space-Time, but it was in no way weaker than the five elements. It was on par with Sword Dao!
Ye Yi had also comprehended a Dao Domain that belonged to him!
Upon seeing this scene, the hearts of the Luo clan clansmen tightened. Indeed, to become the number two figure of the Eternal Eventide Sea, one had to have something extraordinary about him. To be able to comprehend a Dao Domain before the Dao Manifestation realm, such a person was extremely rare.
"It's actually a Dao Domain. It's best Yi Yun does not underestimate his enemy. As long as he uses his strength, he will still win." The Luo clan members present were very confident in Yi Yun.
However, Yi Yun did not seem to have any intention of changing his weapon.
Phew —
Ye Yi's saber domain enveloped Yi Yun as it enveloped him.
With the Heaven Upheaval Seal in hand, Yi Yun remained motionless as he allowed the saber domain to envelop him.
"Cha! Cha!
Cha! "Saber beams shuttled around Yi Yun, slicing through his protective Yuan Qi.
"This is your Dao Domain?"
Yi Yun said nonchalantly. He did not mind it at all. Dao Domains had their own strengths and weaknesses. Ye Yi's Dao Domain was much weaker than Princess White Fox's Dao Domain eleven years ago, much less Chi Zhuiyun.
And eleven years ago, Yi Yun was in the Fey Refining Rock array. He had forcefully cracked the Nine-tailed White Fox's Nine-tailed Dao Domain, much less now.
"It's enough to kill you!"
Ye Yi's sabers merged together as all the saber beams in the saber domain fused into one as he slashed at Yi Yun.
However, before the saber beam landed, Yi Yun held the Heaven Upheaval Seal in hand. In the middle of the Heaven Upheaval Seal, golden runes lit up. These were not runes that were originally engraved on the Heaven Upheaval Seal, but the mark of the 10000 Demon Wheel of Existence!
Eleven years ago, Yi Yun was already able to engrave the 10000 Demon Wheel of Existence onto more than a hundred flying sabers. Now, engraving it onto the Heaven Upheaval Seal was even easier.
"Boom!"
The runes emitted a divine glow as the Heaven Upheaval Seal slammed down!
This strike was not aimed at Ye Yi, but Ye Yi's saber.
A brick versus a saber!
On one side was a saber that condensed an entire Dao Domain. It contained all of Ye Yi's understanding of saber Dao, while on the other side was a piece of inferior metal. However, this collision was like a meteorite striking the ground!
Crackle!
A brick smashed through the void! People could clearly see that a huge crack had appeared in the void. Energy was exploding in the crack as it wantonly leaked out!
The void of the 12 Empyrean Heavens was extremely sturdy. Heaven Ascension realm warriors could not break through the void no matter what, and Yi Yun was no exception.
As such, what was broken was not the void, but … Ye Yi's saber domain!
A saber domain that had just been conjured was forcefully smashed apart by Yi Yun's brick during the collision!
Pa! Pa!
Pa! The Dao Domain shattered consecutively as countless saber beams exploded into pieces. However, the Heaven Upheaval Seal did not lose any momentum as it continued pressing forward!
"Dang!"
Ye Yi's final saber blade was sent flying by Yi Yun's brick. The heavy Heaven Upheaval Seal, wrapped in massive amounts of Yuan Qi, slammed onto Ye Yi's forehead.
"Peng!"
Blood splattered. Ye Yi, who was dressed in tight clothes and had sharp facial features, convulsed from Yi Yun's brick strike. His vision turned black as his mind went blank. It was as if everything in the world around him had been forcefully stripped away by Yi Yun!
"What … is going on …"
Ye Yi's legs went limp. He tried his best to stand firm, but eventually, he slowly collapsed …
