Asura Mad Emperor-Chapter 622: Stunning
```plaintext
Zhou Duo, looking condescending, also revealed a hint of surprise in his eyes.
"Hmph, unexpectedly, you this waste are a bit stronger than I had imagined. You actually managed to stay alive under my Forty-Nine Sword Formation."
"But next time, you won't be so lucky."
Zhou Duo's expression was cold, and his gaze was like lightning, constantly slashing through Chang Kong. Just now, he indeed had not used his full strength, having only used thirty percent of his power.
For a Fifth Layer cultivator to go all out against a First Layer cultivator would be an insult to himself.
However, the fact that this boy withstood thirty percent of his power with a single punch was enough to make him take this seriously.
"Ninety-Nine Sword Technique!"
Zhou Duo drew a semicircle with both arms. Behind him, a crack opened in the void. From within the crack, numerous golden Spirit Swords began to fly out.
There were a total of eighty-one golden Spirit Swords, each one emitting a golden light, resplendent with divine radiance, etched with mysterious runes.
This Ninety-Nine Sword Formation was not only more than half again as numerous as the previous Forty-Nine Sword Formation, but the power of each Spirit Sword was also countless times greater.
"Longsword pierces the sky, the supreme power of gold, strong enough to shatter Qiankun!"
"Suppress!"
The eighty-one Spirit Swords revolved around him and suddenly descended upon Ye Shiyi with crushing force.
"Mm—"
"What powerful oppressive force!"
Ye Shiyi uttered softly, his face serious. His True Qi was circulating, his bones crackling with a snap, producing a series of light sounds like the roar of dragons and cry of tigers, emitting an extremely strong will to fight.
"Ah, this vast Sword Qi, it's almost suffocating me!"
The stronger this oppressive force became, the more his inner trembling intensified.
"Ah! No matter what, I cannot admit defeat!" Ye Shiyi roared in anger. His body shone brightly, his aura surged, and his Divine Power Law leaped around him like boiling water.
"Break!"
Ye Shiyi howled, unwilling to concede. He roared in his heart: "With my great revenge unavenged, how could I fall here!"
He soared into the sky, rushing straight towards the sword rain that filled the sky like a curtain.
Outside the arena, all the cultivators watching this battle were stern, their hearts shaken.
"This lad's got some real courage!"
Some cultivators were moved by Ye Shiyi's bravery.
"Hmph, what nonsense about courage deserving praise. This is clearly idiotic. A First Layer cultivator facing a Fifth Layer, though the chances of a successful escape are slim, it's not impossible.
He didn't choose to flee but instead confronted Zhou Duo head-on. Isn't that seeking death?"
Another cultivator rebutted.
"This Ninety-Nine Sword Formation is a Heaven Rank Mysterious Technique from the Golden Lineage, capable of instantly killing cultivators of the same realm. This thirteenth prince doesn't have a chance of victory."
The cultivators had already looked away, turning their attention elsewhere, as the outcome of this battlefield had been decided.
"Boom!"
All eighty-one golden Spirit Swords descended in force.
At this moment, the world seemed to come to a standstill.
Ye Shiyi's mind thundered with noise, the booming filling his entire sea of consciousness.
While Ye Shiyi's punch was unparalleled, under this assault, his body was sent flying backward dozens of yards, breaking hundreds of great trees along the way.
Finally, with a heavy thud, he crashed onto the ground.
"Indeed, this Thirteenth Prince, he is no match for Zhou Duo."
This result was not unexpected to the crowd.
"However, this lad's physical body is indeed strong, countless Spirit Swords pierced through him, and yet he has not died!"
```
Some noticed that although the thirteenth prince was coughing up blood and his body was riddled with countless bloody holes, he was still trying hard to stand up.
"Who would have thought that after dozens of spirit swords pierced through you, your physical body didn't explode; it seems that the main sect must have spent a treasure trove of genius earthly miracles to temper your body,"
Zhou Duo stood with his sword, his eyes cold, "But this time, I will cut off your head and show you that even though I am just from a branch sect, I am not to be trifled with."
Zhou Duo did not know that their every word and action in this place was being projected outside through a light screen; he only knew that the rules allowed it, that within Mount Sumeru, he could kill anyone.
Ye Shiyi felt like his body was about to explode, sensing the True Qi in his meridians moving rapidly on its own. Inside him, two streams of True Qi, one gold and one black, flowed throughout his body.
Initially, these two streams of True Qi operated at the same time, entangling each other, chaotic and disorderly, each acting like an army vying for territory within his body.
The two streams of True Qi continuously collided and fought, incessantly tearing at his meridians.
But before long, the chaos inside his body calmed, and the two streams of True Qi began to complement each other, no longer interfering with one another.
As the two streams of True Qi flowed within him, his physical injuries began to heal at a speed visible to the naked eye.
This was his Demon Race bloodline being activated!
"Die!"
Zhou Duo also noticed that Ye Shiyi's wounds were rapidly healing, but he didn't care, assuming Ye Shiyi had taken some Treasure Pill.

Zhou Duo swung his sword with the might to destroy heaven and earth, aiming to decapitate Ye Shiyi.
"There's no suspense left, the thirteenth prince is going to die!"
Many cultivators thought to themselves.
But the next moment, an unexpected change occurred.
Suddenly, Ye Shiyi burst forth with two distinct streams of True Qi, one gold and one black.
The golden True Qi swirled with Dao Magic, like a Buddha's light, holy and pure. The black True Qi was wanton and aggressive; in the darkness, it seemed to possess a pair of soul-snatching eyes that terrified and horrified everyone.
Not only that, but Ye Shiyi's body also transformed, the left side crystal clear and emitting a divine golden light, the right side black as stone; at this moment, his body had taken on two different appearances.
"Ah!"
Ye Shiyi bellowed furiously, and extended his right hand to grab at Zhou Duo's oncoming longsword.
His claw was like a dragon from hell, carrying an incredibly formidable presence and momentum. His strike was earth-shattering, as if trying to capture the moon in the Nine Heavens, its whistling cries disturbing the Qiankun.
"Bang!"
Ye Shiyi's right hand caught the descending longsword, sparking intense flashes and a loud clang.
Ye Shiyi had actually caught the opponent's magic artifact with his bare hand.
The fact that his magic artifact was caught by the opponent's bare hand caused a sudden jolt in Zhou Duo's heart, unable to understand how the opponent had suddenly become so outrageous.
"What? How is this possible?"
"My Green Thunder Sword is a superior Spiritual Treasure, not even Spirit Martial Realm experts dare to catch it barehanded, how could he possibly…"
But before he could think further, he suddenly felt an enormous force transmitted through his hand.
Ye Shiyi, using his physical power, suddenly swiped with his claw, sending the longsword in Zhou Duo's hand flying away.
The next moment, Ye Shiyi's claws reached out, and a vast True Qi surged out.
Zhou Duo only felt intense pain in his body, and the next moment, he watched as his body was forcibly torn in two.
Zhou Duo was ripped to pieces in an instant, his physical body perished, and his True Spirit drifted out of the Spiritual Platform.
"How…"
"How… possible?"
Zhou Duo's True Spirit wore an expression of disbelief, horrified by the sight of Ye Shiyi.
He couldn't understand; just a moment ago, this thirteenth prince had been defeated by his move, seemingly not long for this world.
But how had he erupted with such terrifying power in the next moment?
How could a bug that he could easily crush possibly kill him?
