718 -716: Battle with the Immortal

Black Hawk Stronghold.

Xiao Yi looked at the radiant cocoon in front of him, and through the dazzling golden light, he could faintly see the figure of a human shape already quietly appearing within the cocoon.

He couldn’t help but curl the corners of his mouth upward, “It seems that it won’t be long before Little Lin transforms into human form and steps into the Longevity Secret Realm!”

Hum!

Hum!

Hum!

The golden light on the cocoon was flickering in and out of existence.

Now you see it, now you don’t.

This made the entire cave fill with a splendid brilliance.

Immersed in the splendid light, Xiao Yi’s face slightly changed, and the smile on his face suddenly vanished, “Not good!”

Whoosh!

Xiao Yi’s figure suddenly flashed, and he was already rushing out of the treasury to appear in mid-air.

Above the Black Hawk Stronghold, the clouds were white and fluffy, the breeze gentle and mild.

Suddenly,

With a humming tremble in the void in front of him, a space crack appeared before Xiao Yi, and a figure stepped out from the crack.

Clad in black armor, with a hooked nose and a fierce gaze reminiscent of an eagle, the whole person exuded a sinister air.

It was none other than the second-in-command of Black Hawk Stronghold, now the head of the Nan Tian Imperial Guards, Hei Yu.

Hei Yu hastily walked out of the crack, first laying eyes on the mess that was Black Hawk Stronghold, unable to sense a single trace of life, which caused his complexion to also change drastically.

Just as he was about to hurry to the treasury, he saw Xiao Yi suddenly appearing in the void, blocking his path.

Hei Yu’s pupils slightly contracted, his brows jumped like drawn swords, and he stared at Xiao Yi with narrowed eyes, “Was it you who destroyed Black Hawk Stronghold?”

“Shouldn’t there be someone else here?” Xiao Yi said with a smile.

His eyes were also tightly fixed on Hei Yu.

As soon as this man appeared, he had caught Xiao Yi’s attention.

Third-layer Heavenly Venerable!

Such strength could not be said to be weak!

Boom!

Merely with a shift of his gaze, Hei Yu actually turned into a gust of wind, blowing apart the clouds for a hundred miles around him.

Hei Yu clenched his fists suddenly, his eyes filled with an unimaginably cold edge, gritted his teeth and said, “You’ve got some nerve, destroying my Black Hawk Stronghold and taking my treasures only to dare show your face before me, I will grind you to dust!”

In his eyes…

The life and death of Black Hawk Stronghold didn’t matter.

But the precious treasure in the treasury was his sore spot, untouchable by anyone.

Feeling that biting murderous intent.

Xiao Yi’s whole body shook, his primal energy circulated, and only then did the icy sensation brought upon by the intense killing intent dissipate somewhat.

In just that instant, a layer of white frost had formed on his body from the fierce killing intent.

As Xiao Yi’s body shook, the frost cracked and fell away with a crackling sound, scattering and dissipating into nothingness in the sunlight.

The corner of his mouth slightly raised, forming a cold arc, Xiao Yi spoke, “Less nonsense, if it’s a fight you want, then fight!”

“Arrogant!”

Hei Yu looked Xiao Yi up and down, he himself was a formidable figure in the Third-layer Heavenly Venerate Realm, and Xiao Yi was merely at the Dharma Phase Realm Peak.

How dare he challenge him?

Just as Hei Yu was about to make his move.

Suddenly, a roar came from inside the treasury, followed by the trembling of the ground.

This caused Hei Yu’s form to stiffen, disbelief showing on his face, his angry gaze fixed on Xiao Yi as he roared, “Bastard, are you actually refining my precious treasure?”

That Ninth Grade Spirit of Longevity was something he risked his life to obtain.

It was supposed to help him switch his Spirit of Longevity during his attempt to ascend to the Earthly Honor Realm.

But now…

He sensed Little Lin inside the treasury, actually refining the Spirit of Longevity.

Hei Yu’s face was hideously twisted with a terrifying distortion, he bellowed in fury, “No matter who you are, you’re all going to die!”

Boom!

Hei Yu suddenly dove down, like a falling meteor flying towards the direction of the treasury.

At that moment…

A streak of silver Sword Qi, like a river of stars, spanned in front of him, cutting off his path to the treasure vault.

Shhh…

The Sword Qi gradually dissipated, rippling through the void.

As the space ripples spread out in all directions, like vast, undulating waves, and with the Sword Qi fading, Xiao Yi’s figure appeared before him.

With a sword in one hand and the other behind his back, his black garb billowed in the wind, and his dark hair flowed wildly; a slight upward curl at the corner of his mouth, he stared at Black Falcon, “With me here, you can’t get through!”

“Get out of the way!” ƒгeeweɓn૦vel.com

Black Falcon’s eyes were a blood-red fury as he bellowed angrily.

His gaze shifted toward the direction of the treasure vault from time to time, revealing an urgency.

Xiao Yi shook his head and said with a faint smile, “If you want to pass, you’ll have to get by the sword in my hand first!”

Humming!

The longsword swept across the sky, sending several trails of silver light streaking across the heavens like shooting stars, the Sword Qi intense and blindingly bright.

“Since you are hell-bent on seeking death, I shall oblige you!” Black Falcon roared in rage, and as his words fell, his figure flashed out.

It seemed like just one step.

And yet the mountains and rivers beneath his feet rolled backward as if he were a meteor crossing the endless void.

In an instant, he moved past Xiao Yi, appearing behind him.

His figure was like a ghost, silently approaching Xiao Yi’s back, and his hands stretched out like Ghost Claws of the Netherworld toward his throat.

The icy claws aimed straight for Xiao Yi’s throat.

Cold sharpness glinted in Black Falcon’s eyes.

Just as he was about to crush Xiao Yi’s throat, and doom him to death, at the moment when Black Falcon’s fingers were about to close:

The “Xiao Yi” in front of him dissipated with a bang, like a phantom.

“An afterimage?”

Black Falcon’s pupils shrank suddenly, and almost at the same time, he sensed danger and dodged to the side.

Almost simultaneously…

A circular Sword Qi burst forth at the spot where he had just been standing, pressing down the void with endless sword light, relentlessly plunging toward the collapsing space.

This vortex completely devoured the light and energy in the space all around, dragging them into the infinite darkness.

Hiss!

Black Falcon raised his eyebrows in surprise and looked down at his battle armor.

Under that sword technique, a piece of his battle armor had been utterly shredded.

This was battle armor made from Black Nether Iron Stone, ranking at the Ninth Grade peak; even common First-layer Human Venerables would struggle to break through it.

How could Xiao Yi, merely at the peak of the Dharma Manifestation Realm, destroy a piece with a single sword strike?

Disbelief appeared on Black Falcon’s face as he stared at Xiao Yi, his expression grave, “Are you from the inner court of the Nantian Holy Institute?

Or perhaps from the Holy Land of the Nantian Dynasty?”

In Black Falcon’s view…

Only a supreme genius from those two places could destroy a Ninth Grade Yuan weapon battle armor while at the peak of the Dharma Manifestation Realm.

If Xiao Yi truly had the backing of either of those two places, it would not be easy for Black Falcon to make his move.

After all.

Neither the Nantian Holy Institute nor the Holy Land of the Nantian Dynasty were forces he could afford to provoke.

Under Black Falcon’s intense gaze, Xiao Yi smiled slightly and said, “Guess!”

“…”

Black Falcon’s eyelid twitched.

Guess?

Guess your sister!*

If I could guess, would I still need to ask you?

His eyes flickered slightly.

Narrowing his eyes, Black Falcon surveyed the surroundings and revealed a cold smile, “No matter where you come from, in this desolate wilderness, if I kill you and then destroy your body and erase the traces, surely no one would know I did it!”

A chilling aura of death locked onto Xiao Yi in an instant.

Feeling the piercing murderous intent.

A fervent and intense mocking light flashed in Xiao Yi’s eyes, as his fighting spirit erupted without restraint in a moment, “Destroy the body and erase the traces?

That suits me just fine…”

PS: Here’s the second update for yesterday!

*Translator note: “猜你妹” is a colloquial and somewhat rude way to express frustration or disbelief, akin to saying “Guess my [sister, ass, etc.],” implying that the suggestion to guess is ridiculous or unhelpful.
