Chapter 154 : I Will Definitely Kill You
Chapter 154: I Will Definitely Kill You
“Puchi…”
The Flying Sword was icy cold, carrying extreme frost. Wherever it passed, ice formed in the void.
It left behind a crystal-clear yet hollow trail like a blade of ice.
It shot straight toward Yu Taiyan’s chest.
“Boundless Mountains and Rivers Defense—open for me!”
At the very instant the Flying Sword touched Yu Taiyan’s chest, Luo Xuan suddenly roared.
Layers upon layers of mountains and rivers manifested around him.
They intertwined, forming armor that guarded his body.
This was a Divine Realm divine ability.
And an extremely powerful defensive divine ability—no, such a technique was enough to combine both offense and defense.
This was likely Luo Xuan’s reliance for safely escaping the Immortal God Forbidden Zone.
“Boom!”
The boundless mountains and rivers roared, forcibly breaking free from Li Yunqing’s Yang Spirit restraint.
Luo Xuan’s figure flashed, grabbing Yu Taiyan with one hand as they rapidly retreated.
“Puchi!”
Even so, the Flying Sword still pierced through Yu Taiyan’s chest.
Blood instantly splattered across the sky, mixed with ice crystals, falling toward the ground.
“Ah!”
With his chest pierced and his mobility restored, Yu Taiyan finally screamed.
His essence, energy, and spirit fused as one, instantly spreading throughout his body, controlling every inch of muscle and forcibly sealing the wound.
Clearly, Li Yunqing’s strike—due to Luo Xuan’s interference—had not pierced a vital point.
Moreover, having already fused his essence, energy, and spirit into one, becoming a so-called half-step Divine Realm, he could fully control his body and preserve his life at the first moment.
“A Divine Realm expert’s divine ability can break the Yang Spirit’s restraint. I can only hold him for a single breath.”
“But that so-called half-step Divine Realm has no ability to resist!”
Watching Luo Xuan pull Yu Taiyan away, Li Yunqing’s thoughts moved, and she once again shouted:
“Freeze!”
The massive moon behind her—like a translucent star—trembled slightly, instantly dimming and becoming more illusory.
Yet the void froze once more.
The wind stopped, the clouds stilled.
Even starlight and moonlight froze in place.
Including the bodies of Luo Xuan and Yu Taiyan.
“Not good!”
“She dares to use it consecutively? Isn’t she afraid her Yang Spirit will be overconsumed and her soul scattered?”
Luo Xuan’s heart skipped a beat.
Without hesitation, he activated his divine ability again.
“Boom!”
Mountains and rivers intertwined, surrounding his body like an incomparably powerful armor, gradually tearing apart the void’s binding force.
“Chi!”
But at that very moment, as Luo Xuan activated his divine ability, Li Yunqing’s Flying Sword tore through the void, shooting straight toward his chest.
Yu Taiyan was already severely injured. If she wanted to kill both of them, she had to kill Luo Xuan first.
“Puchi!”
The Flying Sword pierced through the outer layer of the mountain-and-river armor but was abruptly blocked, its speed greatly reduced.
“Boom!”
Luo Xuan finally broke free from the restraint again. Just as he was about to pull Yu Taiyan away—
Though the Flying Sword had lost some momentum, it still pierced through the armor.
It aimed straight for Luo Xuan’s chest, but he twisted his body in time, only leaving a deep wound on his shoulder.
“What a vicious woman!”
At this moment, even Luo Xuan felt his scalp tingle.
Seeing Yu Taiyan gritting his teeth and enduring without making a sound to disturb him, he felt a trace of satisfaction.
Yu Taiyan was perceptive and ambitious—his greatest aid in breaking the Immortal God Forbidden Zone.
Naturally, he did not want anything to happen to him.
“Freeze!”
At this moment, Li Yunqing shouted again.
The massive moon trembled slightly, its light dimming further, becoming increasingly hazy.
Yet the power that bound heaven and earth manifested once more.
The retreating Luo Xuan—and Yu Taiyan in his grasp—were once again frozen in the void.
At that instant, the Flying Sword tore through space again, aiming for Luo Xuan’s chest.
“Madwoman… are you trying to die?!”
Feeling that force binding heaven and earth, Luo Xuan’s expression changed drastically.
He could not understand how Li Yunqing dared to use her Yang Spirit power like this.
Was she truly unafraid of her soul being scattered?
Unfortunately, he was not a woman.
He could not understand her resolve.
Nor could he know what she was thinking.
He could only grit his teeth and unleash his divine ability once more.
“Boundless Mountains and Rivers Defense—open again!”
Luo Xuan roared, unease rising in his heart.
If this continued, he might truly be killed by this madwoman.
Li Yunqing could only use her Yang Spirit power a few times—but the same was true for his divine ability.
Each use consumed immense amounts of essence, energy, and spirit.
At his peak, he could use it at most four or five times.
And no one had ever pushed him this far.
After all, this was a powerful divine ability combining offense and defense.
Especially its defense—it far surpassed its offensive capability.
Even against high-stage or peak Divine Realm experts using their own divine abilities, he could endure several exchanges.
But now, in such a short time, he had already been forced to use it three times.
And he had no choice—otherwise, he would be bound by her Yang Spirit power and inevitably die.
“This place cannot be stayed in—we must return to the imperial palace immediately!”
“Rumble!”
As mountains and rivers rotated around Luo Xuan, the defensive armor manifested again.
But before he could act, Li Yunqing’s Flying Sword had already arrived once more, like a streak of ultimate light.
Carrying terrifying cold, it left behind a crystalline trail in the void.
“Bang!”
The Flying Sword struck the armor, piercing through the outer layer again.
At that moment, Luo Xuan felt the restraint loosen. He immediately abandoned the armor, transforming into a streak of light and shooting toward the imperial palace.
Even so, his shoulder was pierced through by the razor-sharp Flying Sword.
Blood scattered across the night sky.
Under the moonlight, a streak of crimson could be faintly seen, mixed with ice crystals, fleeing rapidly into the distance.
“He actually didn’t die!”
Li Yunqing chased for several li, only stopping unwillingly when she saw the streak of light enter the imperial palace.
She even felt a trace of weakness from her physical body faintly transmitted to her Yang Spirit.
“So that’s how it is!”
“Although I cannot use Immortal-Martial Power, this moon formed from the Pure Yin Dao is connected to the three dantians in my body.”
“Each use instinctively consumes Immortal-Martial Power.”
“Just three uses already consumed sixty percent…”
Sensing the condition of her body, Li Yunqing came to a realization.
Even so, she was still unwilling.
“I really want to charge into the imperial palace…”
She murmured, killing intent filling her eyes.
But by nature, she was cautious.
She would not gamble with herself.
Nor did she dare to.
After all, within the palace still resided the ancestor of the Yu Family.
If she were trapped inside, the consequences were obvious.
She would never gamble her own body on even the slightest possibility.
“I need power that can absolutely suppress and kill Divine Realm experts!”
“Divine ability… Boundless Mountains and Rivers Defense!”
Scenes of Luo Xuan unleashing his power flashed through her mind.
She began to understand—
Under the eruption of divine ability, he could break free from her Yang Spirit restraint.
Against Luo Xuan, she held the advantage. If the fight continued, she might severely injure him.
As for killing him—that remained uncertain.
She could not achieve absolute suppression.
“I don’t need prolonged combat!”
“I need the most direct, most overwhelming annihilation!”
“I cannot gamble with my own body!”
“So what if it’s a divine ability? I have them too!”
Li Yunqing thought of the Formless Tribulation Finger.
Yuan Qing had once said—it was a finger technique derived from a Buddhist divine ability.
Now, her artistic conception had reached perfection. She had the qualification to reverse-engineer divine abilities.
Moreover, she also had the Nine Heavens Phoenix Dance, derived from the divine ability of the Phoenix Clan.
Her fire-based artistic conception had also reached perfection—she had a chance to reverse-engineer another divine ability.
With that thought, the massive full moon in the sky suddenly dissipated.
Li Yunqing’s Yang Spirit turned into a streak of moonlight and flew back into her body.
At this moment, only one thought remained in her heart—
“Just wait… I will definitely kill you!”
