Saint Sovereign of Nine Heavens

The glowing bead flew into the air and revolved around Chen Daolin. It merged with the endless light on Chen Daolin's sword and blended into one. It was extremely bright and peerless in this world.    

Bathing in the endless light, Chen Daolin was like a god. His indifferent face could be seen amidst the light, looking down on all living beings from a high vantage point.    

When the Pearl of Light that he did not know what treasure was appeared, Chen Yu was similarly dazzled by the light that was several times stronger than before. Even if he was still using the Bloodfire Eye Technique, since the blood flame was no longer in his eyes, he was still unable to see through the light with his left eye, allowing him to clearly see Chen Daolin's sword force.    

However, it was no longer important to see clearly. Chen Yu, like Shi Tao and the rest, simply closed his eyes. The momentum of his blade was still as decisive as before, without the slightest hesitation.    

With the battle having reached this stage, it could be said that it was already the last strike. The end result could be said that Chen Daolin could not avoid Chen Yu's knife, and Chen Yu could not change his move again!    

Retreating at this time and wavering his resolve would only increase the probability of him dying. Chen Yu knew this, and Chen Daolin also understood it!    

Chen Yu also had no other choice. Previously, although it seemed like he had the upper hand with his left sword and right blade, he was still unable to fully unleash his Knife Technique and completely suppress Chen Daolin. Thus, he gave up on his Abyss Cold Sword and used it to slash out with the ninth slash of the Nine Thunder Prison Breaking Blade.    

Victory or defeat lay within this blade.    

Of course, it wasn't that Chen Yu didn't have other methods. But for a cultivator with Chen Daolin's strength, all of them could be defeated with a single sword strike. Instead, Chen Yu would be distracted.    

Clang *    

Chen Yu felt the swords collide with each other and the huge force collided violently.    

Chen Yu suddenly opened his eyes, only to see that the endless light in his eyes had been weakened by his slash, and his eyes could no longer withstand the dazzling light.    

The astral blade and astral sword fiercely exploded outwards like a storm engulfing the area.    

Bright Justice and Bloody Evil clashed head on at this moment, forming a struggle.    

It was as if Bright Justice was born to suppress evil, coupled with Chen Daolin's sword aura which was stronger than Chen Yu's sword aura. At the moment of collision, the blood-red light beam began to evaporate, appearing like it couldn't endure any longer.    

"Good!" Shi Tao exclaimed in a low voice. He also opened his eyes at the moment the swords and sabers clashed, seeing the endless light engulfing Chen Yu's blood-red sabre light. He immediately revealed a happy expression.    

However, as soon as Shi Tao was delighted, he saw that the scarlet flame in the blood-red light suddenly broke through the endless light.    

Wild and violent blade intent poured down along the hole from the breakthrough.    

Once the light appeared, there was no way to block it. The blade's power expanded along the break, and as it increased, the light immediately began to dissipate.    

"Ah!" Someone exclaimed beside Shi Tao.    

As soon as the cry of surprise reached Shi Tao's ears, the light completely dissipated. The blood-red saber light tore through the sword light and swept across the void, slashing Chen Daolin's body. The violent blade intent that was like thunder had also reached its peak at this moment.    

Suddenly, Chen Daolin's sturdy body flew out, a bit of blood was sprayed out along with the blood red blade light.    

Shi Tao looked frightened, but his reaction was surprisingly fast. He jumped up and walked towards Chen Daolin.    

However, there were two figures who reacted faster than Shi Tao.    

After the bloody light blade passed by Chen Daolin's body, it continued to slash onto the icy ground, creating a deep furrow on the ground. There was also an additional sword mark on Chen Yu's body. After his body shook slightly, he was unable to give chase.    

In the blink of an eye, Chen Daolin's figure had already retreated out of the range of the logistics rice as he was caught by the two people who reacted the fastest and landed on the ground.    

"Let's go!" After landing on the ground, Chen Daolin's face turned pale and filled with pain. His gaze swept across Chen Yu as he shouted, "Everyone, retreat!"    

The two people who caught Chen Daolin were Martial Cultivator of the Seventh Layer of the Heavenly Astral Stage who followed Chen Daolin here. Their strength was not inferior to Shi Tao, after hearing Chen Daolin's words, they did not hesitate at all.    

The Pearl of Light also dimmed at this moment, and was caught by Chen Daolin.    

From the time Chen Daolin was defeated to when he gave the order to retreat, everything happened too fast. Many disciples of the sub-schools didn't even have time to react as they looked at each other in shock, unable to believe this result.    

It was not that he did not want to give chase, but after slashing out the ninth slash of the Nine Thunder Prison Breaking Blade, Chen Yu needed a buffer. The buffer time was very short, enough for three to five seconds, but these three to five seconds were more than enough for Chen Daolin to escape under the support of his followers.    

Chen Daolin was indeed worthy of being called the top disciple of the sub-school. Even though he had been cut by Chen Yu, he did not die on the spot. Instead, he made a prompt decision to escape.    

Since he couldn't kill Chen Daolin, Chen Yu didn't have much interest in killing the other sub-school disciples. They couldn't be bothered to take this opportunity to kill him.    

However, no matter when, reckless people would always exist.    

"Kill!"    

"This Evil Bandit has been severely injured. Let's kill him together!" Several human figures had already leaped forward and slashed their blades towards Chen Yu, sealing off the three meter radius around Chen Yu.    

The first to take action were Guan Yinn, Duan Jie, and Lu Yunfang.    

The moment they took action, those disciples who were in shock and disbelief also started to react. Some of them immediately turned around and ran down the snowy mountain peak while others, listening to Guan Yinn, Duan Jie, and the others' summons, rushed towards Chen Yu.    

At this moment, the disciples of over a hundred sects had become extremely chaotic.    

Chen Yu was a little surprised that Guan Yinn dared to attack. Only after a short moment of thought did he realize that Guan Yinn, Duan Jie and the rest probably thought that he had been seriously injured in the fight with Chen Daolin and that his battle prowess had been greatly reduced!    

Of course, this was related to Guan Yinn and the other disciples who had followed Situ Lan and hated Chen Yu to the bone. Situ Lan being captured alive by Chen Yu was undoubtedly a great humiliation in the eyes of these disciples.    

Chen Yu suddenly waved his hand, and seven to eight meters behind him, the Abyss Cold Sword suddenly shot out an icy blue ray of light.    

At the same time, Chen Yu's body flashed. His body seemed to have no weight at all as he moved to meet Guan Yinn. He faced Guan Yinn's slash with his golden sword and the edge of the blade was blood-red and evil.    

The blood flames appeared again!    

Tink    

After the clash, the blood-red light grew brighter. Correspondingly, the sword aura on Guan Yinn's golden broadsword suddenly dimmed under the corrosion of the blood-red flame and lost its power.    

"You …" Guan Yinn was shocked.    

Without waiting for Guan Yinn to make a move, the Wind Stabilization Blade slashed down from the side of the golden greatsword with a blood-red blade aura, slashing right through Guan Yinn's body.    

Guan Yinn's voice suddenly stopped and his body fell like a broken sack.    

At the same time, the blade energy descended towards Chen Yu, but it was already within reach. Chen Yu, on the other hand, seemed indifferent as he punched out.    

The blood qi on Chen Yu's fist rotated, but he was unable to stop the Martial Cultivator of the Seventh Layer of the Heavenly Astral Stage's sword qi. His fist was immediately torn apart by the sword qi.    

However, Chen Yu didn't mind. His body spun like the wind as he retreated.    

Wu Tie's speed was surprisingly fast. Before Chen Yu could completely pull away from him, the long sword had already pierced into Chen Yu's chest.    

After all, he was at the seventh level of the Heavenly Astral Stage, so he had a premonition of where Chen Yu would be dodging. He had also seen the scene of Guan Yinn being slashed to death by Chen Yu, and there was not a lack of fear in his expression. However, even though he had already made his move, and Chen Yu had even given him a chance to kill Guan Yinn, he would not give up just because of the fear in his heart.    

The battle situation changed drastically. Duan Jie's attack was decisive, and Chen Yu's Wind Stabilization Blade could not be blocked in time.    

But at this moment, the cold air erupted. Duan Jie's expression suddenly froze as deep fear flashed across his eyes and his body became extremely stiff.    

The icy-blue ray of light hit Duan Jie's back.    

Chen Yu slightly leaned to the side and Duan Jie's sword pierced through his body.    

Immediately after, a layer of ice appeared on Duan Jie's body. The ice continued to thicken, causing cracking sounds to be heard. Duan Jie's body, which was stiff because of the corrosion of the ice attributed spiritual energy, involuntarily fell towards Chen Yu's feet.    

Chen Yu's left hand reached out and hit Duan Jie's throat, easily breaking it. The latter's despairing eyes were already filled with regret.    

In the blink of an eye, Guan Yinn and Duan Jie had both died.    

Lu Yunfang's strength was more than a level lower than Duan Jie's Guan Yinn. She had only just arrived in front of Chen Yu, but at this moment, she already felt that the surrounding temperature was extremely cold. She felt like she was standing in a cave of ice.    

She did not dare to attack again. She did her best to retract her sword and retreated.    

However, the icy-blue spiritual light flew out from Duan Jie's corpse, following Chen Yu's will. It was as fast as a ghost and landed on Lu Yunfang's body before she could even react.    

Lu Yunfang staggered a bit and rolled onto the ground. Frost continued to spread on her body, but after a few breaths of time, her entire body was frozen stiff. Although her eyes were wide open and had a pleading look in them, she could not move at all.    

According to Chen Yu's estimations, this Ice Fish Spiritual Soul should only be at the low-grade earth-step, but it was more than enough to deal with Lu Yunfang who was only at the sixth level of Heavenly Astral Stage.    

After Shi Tao saw that Lu Yunfang was not spared, he turned around and descended the snowy peak.    

The other sub-school disciples also didn't dare to attack Chen Yu anymore. They all turned around and chased after the sub-school disciples that had already escaped, running for their lives towards the snowy mountain peak.    

Liu Tie's gaze was still wandering as he looked at Chen Daolin. Within a short period of time after Chen Yu had killed Guan Yinn and Duan Jie, Chen Daolin was still a hundred meters away from them.    

Looking at the hundred over disciples of the Acupoint Charging Sect escaping like ants, Chen Yu shook his head and kept his Abyss Cold Sword, then grabbed Guan Yinn's golden sword and Storage Bag. Under Lu Yunfang's pitiful eyes, he shook his head, brought all these things and walked towards the Ice Hole where Su Guan, Jun Che, and the others were, but did not kill Lu Yunfang.    

It wasn't because Chen Yu was a merciful woman, but because a disciple of a sub-school like Lu Yunfang was no longer a threat to him and he was too lazy to kill her.    

Up until now, Chen Yu had killed countless of people from the City Battle Trial. Now, he was really fed up with endless killing.    

"It's a pity that I can't kill Chen Daolin, but defeating him will make the City Battle Trial much easier for me!"    

Thinking back on his battle with Chen Daolin, Chen Yu knew that there was still a small gap between his real strength and Chen Daolin's.    

Without the Ice Fish Spiritual Soul s and Abyss Cold Sword s, even with the unparalleled power of the Blood Flame, Chen Yu's final slash might not have been able to completely injure Chen Daolin, causing him to lose his combat ability.    

Furthermore, Chen Yu knew that the extreme cold environment of this snowy peak would increase the strength of the Ice Fish Spiritual Soul by quite a bit. If it was an environment other than this, the power of the Ice Fish Spiritual Soul would not be so strong!
