The Path of the Martial Arts BOSS-Chapter 1191 - 216: Drawing the Sword

In the Sea of Consciousness of Emperor Zhou, Qing Yu's One Soul and the Second Generation Human Emperor are still in battle.

Although calling it a battle might be a bit of a stretch, the fight between these two is more like a strategic standoff.

Senluo Heaven and Array, Absolute Sea Thousand Waves Array, Mixed World Demon Array, Dishonored Moon Array······

It is not the Eight Emperors United, but the remaining Seven Emperors who transmit their power to the Second Generation Human Emperor, who then sets up numerous Great Formations to engage in a battle of wits with Qing Yu.

This Second Generation Human Emperor is a disciple of the First Generation Human Emperor.

The First Generation Human Emperor comprehended Heaven and Earth with great wisdom, understood the rules of all phenomena, and integrated these insights into Martial Arts, making every punch and palm an exposition of the great forces of Heaven and Earth, leaving one with a feeling of powerlessness facing the universe.

However, this Second Generation Human Emperor absorbed and refined the Martial Arts of the First Generation, using Array Formations to manifest the phenomena of Heaven and Earth, and using Array Dao to deduce the cosmos.

This individual is precisely the creator of Array Dao.

Over ten thousand years have passed, and although Array Dao is not mainstream, it has never been lost in Human Dao history. The Second Generation Human Emperor, though a relic from ten thousand years ago, is not at all outdated in thought.

The recreated Spiritual Sense from Human Dao Will is not disconnected from the era; instead, it has absorbed the development of Array Dao over the millennia from the river of Human Dao. Now he is both the founder and the one who brings Array Dao to Great Success.

This seemingly endless Array Formation is the masterpiece of the Second Generation Human Emperor.

Various formations complement each other, creating a unique world with Array Dao, trapping Qing Yu's Spiritual Sense within. Moreover, it even subtly affects the other two souls.

"Years bring not only strength but also wisdom."

The Second Generation Human Emperor stands at the top of the Sea of Consciousness, smiling as he claps his hands lightly, "In terms of strength, even if all Eight Emperors gather, they might not be able to overcome you. Although you are now fighting another body and Supreme Taoist, I still chose the safest approach.

This place is your Sea of Consciousness, and I am not confident enough to kill you, but to trap you until the battle between the brothers and sisters of Mountain River Academy is enough.

If luck is on my side, it might even affect your battle with Supreme Taoist."

The formation operates, nearly a thousand Great Formations interlocked like gears, deducing the rules of Heaven and Earth, simulating another layer of Heaven and Earth within Emperor Zhou's Sea of Consciousness, trapping Qing Yu's Spiritual Sense inside.

And this trapped soul impacts the other two souls to some extent.

···························

On the other side of Divine Capital, within Piaomiao Sword Palace.

On the top floor of Huanzhu Building, Ren Piaomiao stands with his hands behind his back, gazing into the sky, his expression calm and his body motionless.

Even if the Spiritual Sense within Emperor Zhou's Sea of Consciousness is sealed, even if the battle with Supreme Taoist is at a disadvantage, this avatar, possessing ninety-five percent of Qing Yu's strength, has not moved.

He seems to be waiting for something.

Or perhaps pondering something.

'Feng Jiu's Sea of Consciousness has been completely refined by me; even if locked by the Second Generation Human Emperor, it's not a major problem, after all, that is my home ground. At most, just being trapped for a moment.'

'The battle with Supreme Taoist is also no big deal; despite the impact and having a finger pierce through the shoulder blade, this kind of injury is hardly anything.'

'Both sides are not severe disadvantages and do not affect my safety. This kind of setup is somewhat too weak.'

Despite the dual obstruction from the Second Generation Human Emperor and Supreme Taoist, Qing Yu remains unfazed. Even if at a disadvantage, it is only temporary.

'Compared to the battles from both sides, I'm more curious about the purpose of the Second Generation Human Emperor.'

Days ago, Supreme Taoist confronted me, certain that Qing Yu would conflict with Human Emperor, aiming to temporarily restrain Qing Yu's true body to let Human Emperor deal with Qing Yu.

The fact is, it has unfolded as Supreme Taoist anticipated.

With the Northern Zhou army heading south, the conflict between Daqian and Northern Zhou has reached its most extreme point. Human Emperor and Qing Yu are about to face their ultimate showdown.

Compared to the Second Generation Human Emperor, Supreme Taoist's intention seems singular: to restrain Qing Yu's strength, preventing full resistance against Human Emperor.

And the Second Generation Human Emperor······

Did he merely come for Mu Xiuji to successfully obtain Haqi River?

Was Meng Shanhe absorbed into Haqi River without leaving any backup for his disciple to smoothly inherit the Haqi River?

"I'm really quite curious."

Ren Piaomiao chuckled lightly, the Nirvana Sword emitted a sword cry as it fell into his palm.

"Ninth Sword Reincarnation."

The sword tip pointed downwards, an invisible sword momentum suddenly flashed, piercing through multiple layers, directly into the underground.

At the moment it entered the ground, a large amount of Earth Qi was transformed into a sharp sword, darting along the Earth Veins to the other side of Divine Capital.

Along the way, Earth Qi continued to gather, the sword momentum grew grander, and the forest Sword Qi became increasingly fierce.

In this manner, across the vast Divine Capital, Ren Piaomiao unsheathed his sword, his sword momentum aimed at the other side of Divine Capital——

Datong Mountain.

"Let me see if your true purpose is indeed for this Haqi River."

If not, then eliminating Mu Xiuji would also count as ending this battle ahead of time.

If so······

"Then it's time I made a move." A sharp glint flashed in Ren Piaomiao's eyes.

The Second Generation Human Emperor must have a significant purpose, hence Ren Piaomiao's temporary restraint from action.

Once confirmed that the Second Generation Human Emperor came for the Human Dao River, Ren Piaomiao would act. Although the unique nature of Haqi River is still unknown, once an anomaly is identified, Ren Piaomiao would act.

By then, even destroying the Haqi River, which was earned through Meng Shanhe's sacrifice, would be of no concern.

Truth will soon be revealed.

Divine Capital is vast; even riding a horse requires over an hour to traverse from south to north.

Yet it is small, at least for Ren Piaomiao's Reincarnation Sword, which crosses Divine Capital within a few breaths, about to emerge from the other side beneath Datong Mountain.

Before Sword Qi arrived, that resolute sword momentum of Piaomiao was already present.

The entire Datong Mountain appeared to transform into a Divine Sword, which surged upwards and caused the heavenly wind and clouds to change drastically.

This sudden turn of events did not trigger any chaos.

Because mere moments after the change, the Sword arrived.

Below the True Pill Realm, all were suppressed into unconsciousness by this sword momentum. Even Zhuge Longsu and Mu Xiuji, in the midst of a fierce battle, changed colors because of this sword.

This sword could kill Mu Xiuji.

'If there is indeed an anomaly, let it appear before me.'

Across the distance, Ren Piaomiao's gaze held deep meaning, the Nirvana Sword continuously pulsing with sword light, ready to act.

"Sigh~"

A faint sigh, expressing a sense of loss.

Xuanhuang Energy condensed into an Earth Lock to trap the Earth Qi Reincarnation Sword underground.

"Human Emperor!"

The sword light in Ren Piaomiao's eyes shone fiercely, the enormous force caused Heaven and Earth to lose color.

It turns out there indeed is a problem with Haqi River, and the Second Generation Human Emperor entered Emperor Zhou's Sea of Consciousness precisely to stall for time.

"Good."

With a single word, Ren Piaomiao unsheathes his sword.
