《World Of Swords》203 : Pagoda
Advertisement
Hearing Meng Lin's words, a slightly awkward look couldn't help but appear on Ling Chen's face, prompting Meng Lin to slightly smile before shaking her head.
"You should recover first, then we can talk, you can take this and create a temporary cave abode," said Meng Lin as a token appeared in the hands of each of the geniuses.
"Alright," said Li Fengfeng before quickly disappearing, and only a moment later, the rest of the group flashed away, scattering throughout the Myriad Formation's Valley.
...
Feeling the danger lurking behind her, a space crack suddenly appeared in front of Xu Yue, on leading straight to the Origin Sword Sect.
But the moment Xu Yue tried stepping into it, she was suddenly thrown out by it for no apparent reason, causing a large frown to appear on her face.
Suddenly, Xu Yue disappeared, and in her place, a young boy appeared merely a fraction of a second later.
At this moment, Xu Yue was already far away from the boy, flying as far away from him as she could, although she had the ability to travel through space even without using the Dao of Fate, it's speed paled in comparison to the speed of her flight.
"You should be careful, looks like they found a way to deal with your ability to quickly flee," said Yan Yuan, his voice resounding in Xu Yue's face.
"Although I was unsealed after his death, it looks like this guy was not the one who has restricted your travel ability," said Yan Yuan as Xu Yue fled south, the fastest she could.
Merely a moment later, Xu Yue suddenly transformed into an immeasurably tall Ancient God, with Eight nearly fully golden Stars being visible on her forehead.
Now that she had returned to her true form, Xu Yue's speed suddenly skyrocketed, as she no longer restrained herself.

'He's still catching up,' thought Xu Yue as she flew through the air, feeling the cold gaze watching her from behind, getting closer and closer to her at a high speed.
Feeling this, Xu Yue once again sped up, as she spat out a mouthful of blood, prompting the little boy to also speed up towards her.
Suddenly, Xu Yue appeared in front of the little boy, slashing her sword at his neck, and at this moment, she was back in her human form.
The moment Xu Yue slashed toward the neck of the little boy, everything around her suddenly disappeared, leaving only her and the little boy still alive.
In merely a fraction of a moment, trillions upon trillions of lives were completely wiped out of existence, as all traces of them disappeared.
Mortals, cultivators, clans, sects, temples, all of them completely erased from existence by Xu Yue.
But even so, Xu Yue did not have any time to think about anything else, as she poured every ounce of her power into her slash.
Suddenly, Xu Yue moved her head towards as she continued her slash toward the little boy's neck, trying her best to deal as much damage as possible.
At that very moment, the little boy sent out a punch toward Xu Yue's head at a speed far beyond what she could react to, but even so, under his slightly bewildered gaze, Xu Yue moved her head left, completely dodging the punch.
A moment later, Xu Yue's sword pierced through the neck of the little boy, although Xu Yue could feel an extremely pure force stopping her sword from continuing on, this slash contained all of Xu Yue's power, the most she could manage to muster at this moment.
Under the combined power of Xu Yue's Boundless Sword Dao, her horrifying physical strength, as well as all of the power that Yan Yuan could master in his limited state, the pure power still managed to hold on, the amount of this weird power was extremely tiny, but even so, it still managed to stave off the majority of Xu Yue's attack, as the rest of it flew into the distance, not even touching him.

But unfortunately for the little boy, fate always favored Xu Yue.
Without any warning, a thin sword suddenly stabbed through the pure power, as well as the little boy's heart.
Before the little boy could do anything, the sword suddenly moved, swiftly cutting up both his body and soul into little pieces.
At the same time, a hand suddenly emerged from behind Xu Yue, dragging her away from the little boy.
As the last remnants of the little boy floated above the empty hole created by Xu Yue, a certain thought couldn't help but enter the mind of the boy.
'It looks like Hao Xifeng got closer to becoming a True Immortal than I expected,' thought the little boy.
Just as he was about to regenerate his body and soul, the little boy suddenly felt his control of his body lessen as an enourmous pagoda suddenly appeared above him.
The moment the pagoda appeared above the little boy, a certain old figure suddenly appeared in front of it.
As this was happening, Xu Yue was completely unaware of what was happening around her, if someone had entered Xu Yue's sea of consciousness at this moment, they would be shocked, wondering how this cultivator was still alive.
Right now, large cracks were clearly visible on her soul, as she barely held on to her life.
Without any hesitation, Hao Xifeng took out a pill from her robe before forcefully feeding it to Xu Yue.
"This should be enough," thought Hao Xifeng before spitting out a mouthful of blood as she stared at the huge pagoda in front of her, at the same time, her spiritual sense was fully locked onto Xu Yue, who had just taken a healing pill.
The moment blood exited Hao Xifeng's mouth, it suddenly flew towards the old man, the Artifact Spirit of the Trial pagoda, being absorbed by his feeble body, causing a glint to appear in his eyes.
"Go back to the sect, with your strength, I can only suppress him for a while," said the artifact spirit before he stopped paying attention to Hao Xifeng and Xu Yue.
