Celestial Dragon Sword Venerable-Chapter 249: Killed with a Single Staff Stab
Burning a wisp of Dragon Blood, Ye Tianling hardened his resolve. ’Don’t kill her outright. After I’ve completely crippled her, I’ll use the Profound Ice Cold Iron Rod to ram her to death!’
Ye Tianling communicated with the Xuanyuan Celestial Evil Sword. As if understanding his intent, the sword immediately drew upon his Dragon Blood and unleashed a strike of the Sword Dao God.
That peerlessly graceful strike, one that embodied the Sword Dao God and a heaven-shaking Sword Intent, manifested once more.
This time, a full tenth of Ye Tianling’s Dragon Blood was consumed.
At the same time, the Xuanyuan Celestial Evil Sword began to absorb the energy reserves stored within the Space-Time Soul-locking Tower.
At that moment, the Samadhi True Fire on Ye Tianling’s body blazed even more intensely, and his entire aura grew more powerful and terrifying.
All the blood in his body seemed to ignite, as if he had transformed into a Fire God. Monstrous flames, possessing a Divinity like a scorching sun, spilled from his body and radiated in all directions.
With flames raging, Ye Tianling shot into the sky, seemingly scorching the void itself as he bore down on Long Yunyao.
Simultaneously, the Xuanyuan Celestial Evil Sword’s attack, the Celestial Evil Heaven-Breaking Annihilation Dao, thrust toward Long Yunyao in the same instant.
"Void Transformation!"
"Phantom Twins!"
Long Yunyao’s figure flickered and split in two. One of the phantoms was locked onto by the Xuanyuan Celestial Evil Sword and pierced between the brows. Blood gushed out as the flames exploded.
BOOM—
Black mist billowed from within the phantom’s body before it suddenly exploded.
The terrifying blast of energy was like a sentient power tearing through the void, shattering the Dao-rhythm and Spiritual Energy.
The ear-piercing sound of shattering Dao Marks seemed capable of ripping apart one’s mind and soul. It was like a sharp sword stabbing into the psyche of every Cultivator present, making their Divine Souls tremble in agony. A bone-chilling aura spread, and the sense of shock and crisis became overwhelming.
Long Yunyao’s other phantom radiated a supreme killing intent. She pointed one hand toward the sky and the other at Ye Tianling.
WENG—
In that instant, it was as if she had gathered the Supreme Dao of heaven and earth and manifested the infinite Slaughter Law. With this gesture, the void seemed to get crushed, giving rise to a Cyan Dragon Killing Soul.
The Killing Soul was tangible, not an attack for a Soul Battle, but a direct, physical manifestation of the Power of Slaughter that shot toward Ye Tianling.
Vast swathes of radiance converged as the Cyan Dragon Power raged for miles. A monstrous might gathered, shattering the endless streams of light.
That single strike was world-shocking.
Its Battle Power reached the very peak of the Breaking Eight level.
The Talent Long Yunyao unleashed was astonishingly brilliant, shaking all who witnessed it.
"That was nearly a Near Nine Forbidden level strike!"
"The Dragon Race is truly full of talented individuals!"
"Terrifying!"
"Clearly, Long Yunyao isn’t much weaker than the Tianyu Saintess or the Tianmo Saintess. Compared to Long Qianying, she’s likely on par!"
"Long Qianying is stronger, of course. It’s just that she hasn’t made a move in a very long time!"
"If they’re this strong, just how high is the Battle Power of Long Cangqian, who is said to be able to suppress them all?"
"Soon. We’ll see it soon enough."
"Let’s hope Ye Tianling isn’t worn down and killed or finished off prematurely. That would be a real shame."
...
BOOM—
The battle raged on. The Xuanyuan Celestial Evil Sword slew the Dao Body Void, and Long Yunyao’s face turned pale. Her attack struck Ye Tianling, making his entire body shudder. His Ice Spirit Armor blocked the vast majority of the Attack and Kill Power, but cracks still appeared on its surface.
The residual Attack and Kill Power slammed into Ye Tianling, but his powerful physique directly withstood the terrifying assault of the Power of Slaughter as it rampaged through him.
At the same time, Ye Tianling unleashed another wave of the Power of Samadhi True Fire, merging it with his Dragon Soul as it swept outward.
The Samadhi True Fire spread, melting the very ground it passed over. The energy in the void transformed into a magma-like liquid, which then quickly ignited. Finally, like a tidal wave, it surged toward Long Yunyao.
"Die—"
Ye Tianling’s Xuanyuan Celestial Evil Sword slashed out once more as he let out a cold cry.
Long Yunyao suddenly brandished a blood-red longsword.
"Sword Venerate Dominating Body! When the Emperor’s Sword appears, Ten Thousand Swords Submit!"
Ye Tianling ignited his bloodline, unleashing the unparalleled might of his Sword Venerate Dominating Body. It instantly suppressed the Upper Grade Spiritual Artifact longsword that Long Yunyao had just revealed.
"Devour! Blood Sacrifice!"
The moment her sword began to tremble, almost breaking free from her control, Ye Tianling relinquished his own command over the Xuanyuan Celestial Evil Sword, allowing it to devour her weapon!
PFFT—
WENG—
The Xuanyuan Celestial Evil Sword had long craved blood, thirsting to devour Spirit Swords and even Sacred Artifacts. Upon receiving Ye Tianling’s ’command’, it transformed into a streak of bloody light and shot forward.
PFFT—
The Spirit Sword was pierced straight through by the Xuanyuan Celestial Evil Sword, instantly shattering into dust.
SPURT—
Her lifeblood, mind, soul, and Dragon Soul were all connected to that sword. With its sudden destruction, Long Yunyao, already injured from losing her Void Body, suffered another grievous wound.
At this moment, Ye Tianling charged forward.
He and his sword attacked from two different directions. As the Xuanyuan Celestial Evil Sword shot out once more, Ye Tianling took out his Profound Ice Cold Iron Rod and rammed it straight toward Long Yunyao.
All the Saint Sons and Saintesses stared, wide-eyed and dumbfounded.
In that instant, Ye Tianling’s true ’wickedness’ was finally on full display.
SQUELCH—
The Xuanyuan Celestial Evil Sword devoured the Spirit Sword and used it as a Blood Sacrifice, converting it into its own energy. Its Power of Slaughter skyrocketed.
Unleashing the Celestial Evil Heaven-Breaking Annihilation Dao of its own accord, the sword was simply unstoppable.
As the sword struck, Long Yunyao was completely powerless to resist. The protective rays of light from the seven trump cards on her body shattered one after another, but none could fend off such a fatal blow.
She was still preparing to force a final, desperate attack—to land a fatal blow on Ye Tianling, even if it meant her own death.
But at that exact moment, Ye Tianling made his bizarre move, thrusting the Profound Ice Cold Iron Rod up at her from below.
SPURT—
Her vital point, the core ’No Leakage’ spot, was suddenly pierced.
In that instant, her Force Qi completely vented. Her Dragon Soul, Dantian, and other core functions instantly collapsed before exploding with a wet POP.
BOOM—
The Samadhi True Fire erupted and immediately began to incinerate her.
The Xuanyuan Celestial Evil Sword showed no mercy, instantly turning Long Yunyao into a ball of fire. With a sickening CRACKLE, it burned her completely, reducing her to ashes.
The entire sequence didn’t last thirty breaths. It didn’t even last three.
With her vital point broken, Long Yunyao was completely refined in a single breath.
This was not only because she had lost her Void Body, but also because Ye Tianling had struck her with the rod at the critical moment, shattering her ’No Leakage Body’.
It all happened in the blink of an eye.
The death of the astonishingly brilliant Long Yunyao in a single battle completely stunned everyone present.
Even the faces of the various Saint Masters turned incredibly grim.
It wasn’t that Ye Tianling had killed someone—and Long Yunyao certainly wasn’t the first Saintess he had slain—but to do it by ramming her with a rod... Was this truly a Divine Child?
So shameless?
So wicked?
"A Demon! That’s what he is, a Demon that everyone has the right to execute!"
Long Fengyang was furious. His face burned with shame, an unbearable feeling of humiliation washing over him!
This insulting, provocative, face-slapping humiliation had truly made him lose all face!
