Chapter 274 Frostless Sword Domain
Chapter 274 Frostless Sword Domain
Xue Lan's casual remark, delivered in a tone so nonchalant it sounded like everyday conversation, sent a chill down Ji Yan's spine.
The young man stood below, looking at the three disciples of the immortal sects above him.
Two Nascent Soul cultivators and one Golden Core cultivator should not pose any threat to him.
But why do I feel a faint sense of unease, as if a sharp sword is hanging over my head?
especially……
His gaze shifted to Long Siyin, who was closest to him.
He wasn't sure if it was just his imagination, but it seemed that after this person slapped him, her aura began to rise steadily, radiating an aura like a slowly rising sun that made him afraid to look directly at her.
The young man gathered demonic energy behind his back with one hand and transmitted his voice to the person who had been watching from the sidelines.
"Priestess, she's here!"
In a secluded cave in a canyon, far from the surrounding mountains, an old man in a blue robe sat on a stone bed, his voice hoarse and unpleasant:
"Wait a minute, she's just a little girl from the lower realm."
"Yes!"
Ji Yan outwardly agreed obediently, but inwardly she couldn't help but curse the old man in secret.
"He's just an old man! If it weren't for..."
If it weren't for the mistake he made when containing the demon soul during the last demon god trial, there would be no need for him to be playing along with him here.
Thinking of this, the young man looked at the indifferent woman in black high in the sky, and the hatred in his eyes almost materialized.
Xue Lan held the Sun-Tracing Mirror in her hand and paused for a moment when she sensed the young man's hatred.
The woman held the Sun-Tracing Mirror in her hand, but only one of the three layers of runes could light up.
Her hand, hanging by her side, was trembling slightly.
"Xue Lan!"
A girl in an orange dress appeared beside Xue Lan, her voice anxious: "If you do this, won't you..."
“Ever since you gave me this mission, haven’t I been pushing the limits of the plot?” Xue Lan said, her tone so relaxed that it was as if the slight tremor in her voice wasn’t hers.
"Now let's see if Siyin can kill Jiyan as soon as possible."
After Xue Lan finished speaking, Xue Tong saw that she had actually flown to a cliff on the side.
The woman gently waved her hand, releasing two Crimson Jade Spiders from her sleeve, sending them to aid the soldiers fighting the Kiri Demon Beast.
She raised her hand to brush away the dust from a rock behind her, and sat down with a slight smile.
Xue Tong was extremely worried. The girl took out the Zhuohua Bow and said, "You stay here and I'll go down and help."
After saying that, she transformed into a streak of emerald light and leaped down.
When Long Siyin saw Xue Lan sit down at such a critical moment, she immediately guessed that there was something wrong with his health.
Thinking of her suddenly restored strength, the woman gripped the Duying Sword tightly in her hand.
"Senior Brother Xu, please help me!"
The woman's voice, sharp as a fierce wind, rang out. Xu Qizhou had already grasped the Frostless Sword in his hand and casually swung it.
"Frost-free!"
An extremely slow and elegant sword strike, like a frost falling silently in late autumn.
Under Ji Yan's somewhat panicked gaze, the surrounding space changed the moment Xu Qizhou swung his sword.
The dark night and yellow sand have transformed into the cold and desolate Frostless Sword Domain.
A bright, clear moon hangs high in the sky, and the entire world, from the grass to the trees, exudes a chilling murderous aura.
"That demon lord that Ninth Prince brought back then made me lose miserably!" The young man's voice was icy.
In the battle to besiege Xuan Shuo at Luoxia Mountain, the unfinished Frostless Sword Domain was broken by Xuan Shuo in his true form, and Jin Xun, a disciple of Jiyue Mountain, died in battle, his soul completely destroyed.
Over the past decade, every time Xu Qizhou drew his sword, he was thinking about that battle from back then.
He wondered if Jin Xun would have survived if he had been able to create a domain with a single sword strike.
After ten years of relentless sword practice at Luoxia Mountain, he finally had his chance.
As Ji Yan looked at him, Xu Qizhou shouted sharply, "Siyin!"
Ji Yanxin was in a bad mood. Just as Xu Qizhou was speaking, a faint sword clang suddenly came from behind him.
"As expected, they are still ants from the lower realm!"
The black-clad youth transformed into a streak of light, rapidly twisting in place. When he reappeared, he had already caught the incoming sword tip between two fingers.
"Not good!" The moment his fingertips touched the tip of the sword, Ji Yan heard a whooshing sound in his ear.
"boom!"
The woman who suddenly appeared had chains wrapped around her hands and slammed the person in front of her down again.
At the same time, the woman grabbed the hilt of the Du Ying sword and transformed into a golden light, chasing after the falling Ji Yan all the way down.
"boom!"
A deafening collision resounded, and Ji Yan smashed a large crater into the ground. Immediately afterwards, a torrent of sword intent, like stars falling from the sky, mixed with a chilling killing intent, pressed down.
The sun and moon shine together; there is nowhere to retreat, nowhere to avoid!
A burst of blood-red light exploded around Ji Yan, blocking Long Siyin's descending sword strike. After the smoke and dust cleared, a tall, dark figure slowly rose from the ground.
“His true form has materialized.” Xu Qizhou looked at Long Siyin.
"How interesting!" The monster with eyes growing from its shoulders spoke slowly, its blood-red eyes staring at Long Siyin not far away. Its voice was rough, hoarse, and disgusting.
Those huge, blood-red eyes rolled around, sweeping over the man and woman in front of them, before looking towards the edge of the Frostless Sword Domain.
Outside in the rift valley, Xue Lan looked at Ji Yan, who was looking at her from within the Sword Domain, and was slightly taken aback.
“I was wrong before.” The woman’s eyelashes drooped. “Those who are supported by demon priests always have some merit…”
"But it doesn't matter if we're discovered now!"
The woman slowly raised her sleeve, and an extremely dense aura of malevolence flew out from it, followed by a fleeting sword light.
The little girl's clear and lively voice reached my ears:
"Your Majesty, wait a moment! I'll come and save you after I've dealt with the bad guys!"
Xue Lan let out a soft sigh of relief, her fingers, which had been hidden behind her back, trembled incessantly.
"Finally... I made it in time."
Ji Yan was proud of his keen insight, but he never expected that a provocative remark would be met with an extremely dazzling blade of light.
As if tearing through the void before him, the black blade appeared without warning, carrying unparalleled murderous aura. With a light sweep, it gouged out the eye on the right shoulder of Ji Yan's enormous demonic body.
"what!"
A piercing scream echoed through the sky. Xue Lan sat outside, nodding in satisfaction. It truly lived up to its reputation as a divine artifact. Although Xue Lan, at the Core Formation stage, couldn't unleash its full power, it was more than enough to subdue Ji Yan.
Ji Yan clutched his right shoulder and took a few steps back, seeing the eerie, dark blade of light transform into a man in black before him. Beside him, a barefoot little girl in a brocade robe floated.
"So it was you who bullied my lord?" Yinhun said angrily.
Ji Yan didn't speak, but Xue Lan outside frantically sent telepathic messages to the little guy:
"It's him, it's him! He's the one who bullied me!"
The Soul Guide nodded: "Your Majesty, be good, I'll take care of him."
Xue Lan: The old mother's deep emotion!
Ji Yan was shocked to see the two people floating in mid-air.
Two artifact spirits?
What has Xue Lan been doing all these years? Robbery?
Xue Lan's response to this was:
Actually, I have three in total!
Ji Yan took a step back. His demonic soul had been injured when it contained the remnant soul of the demon god last time, so he dared not directly confront the two divine artifacts now.
"priest!"
The young man cried out anxiously in his heart.
The old man in blue robes, who had been watching from the sidelines, finally opened his eyes and looked at the single-edged sword in black.
"We did spot one that slipped through the net!"
In the blink of an eye, the old man vanished from the stone bed.
