Chapter 523: Ye Qingqing’s Power Surge
Ye Guan had begun his descent into madness!
Ye Qingqing froze. Moments later, she was instantly overcome by rage. "What on earth have you done?!"
Ye Guan quivered and stammered, "L-let's... face... them... together."
Then, Ye Guan transformed into a streak of sword light, charging at the mysterious army. Ao Qianqian and the Mad Demon Bloodline had propelled Ye Guan's aura to an unprecedented, terrifying level.
Ye Guan's Mortal Bloodline surged crazily as well. Meanwhile, the Phoenix Emperor Bloodline remained dormant, as Ye Guan dared not risk activating all three bloodlines at the same time.
Staring at Ye Guan's boldly advancing at the distant supreme elites, Ye Qingqing couldn't contain her frustration and lampooned, "He's really driving me crazy!"
She also transformed into a stream of sword light and chased after Ye Guan.
Elder Feng took out a transmission talisman and shattered it.
A supreme elite wielding a spear appeared before Ye Guan. The spear flew like lightning toward Xuanyuan.
Clang!
A burst of sword light erupted from Ye Guan, and he staggered backward from the collision. Before Ye Guan could recover his balance, a shadow materialized in front of him, and a cold light flew toward his glabella.
Swoosh!
Ye Qingqing arrived in a flash and slashed out.
Boom!
The supreme elite was blasted away upon taking Ye Qingqing's attack.
Ye Qingqing stared at Ye Guan and noticed that the clarity in his eyes was gradually fading away.
Ye Qingqing calmly said, "I want you to maintain a strand of your consciousness."
Ye Qingqing was afraid that even she would find it hard to suppress him once he succumbed to madness and entered the Mad Demon State. After all, Ye Guan had the Mortal Bloodline coursing through his veins!
Ye Guan's face twisted as he struggled to control the Mad Demon Bloodline. However, the bloodline refused to cooperate with him. Just then, a dozen powerful auras swept toward them.
Ye Qingqing's eyes flashed coldly, and she stepped forward to unleash a mysterious force that enveloped the oncoming supreme elites.
Ye Qingqing's sword domain came to life, and a surge of power emanated from Ye Qingqing's sword.
Kaboom!
The sword domain exploded, and the resulting explosion forced the supreme elites to retreat.
Ye Qingqing took advantage of the brief respite to grab Ye Guan away. However, their escape was thwarted by a black-robed man. A radiant saber light erupted from the saber in the black-robed figure's hands.
Ye Qingqing’s eyes narrowed, but she reacted quickly and swung her sword downward.
Bam!
A torrent of sword light erupted, but the clash resulted in both Ye Qingqing and Ye Guan being sent flying away. The black-robed figure wielding a saber didn't chase after them and simply stared at them coldly from afar.
Meanwhile, the rest of the mysterious army was fast approaching. Ye Qingqing sighed and turned to Ye Guan. “Since you don’t want to leave me behind, then we'll kill them all together. You take on this man with a saber.”
With a determined nod, Ye Guan spun around and charged at the black-robed man wielding a saber. A sea of blood manifested on the battlefield as Ye Guan immediately went all out.
Meanwhile, Ye Qingqing charged at the rest of the mysterious army.
Clang!
A deafening clang echoed as Ye Guan's sword collided with the black-robed man's saber. At the moment of collision, however, the black-robed man twisted his wrist; his saber moved downward, sweeping toward Ye Guan.
Guzhen and the Time Reversers were blasted tens of thousands of meters away, but Ye Qingqing's sword domain ended up shattering as well, forcing her to retreat.
However, the dozen or so mysterious figures charged at her for the kill.
Ye Qingqing glared at the oncoming figures and swung her sword once again. A radiant light erupted, and a dome of sword lights manifested, engulfing everything nearby.
Grotesque noises echoed incessantly as Ye Qingqing's sword lights pierced, sliced, slashed, and chopped down everything, including spacetime.
However, the dome of sword lights was quickly brought down by the combined efforts of the powerful mysterious figure.
Swoosh!
Just then, a colossal fist imprint flew in from the side, heading straight for Ye Qingqing. The fist imprint carried with it a terrifying force that obliterated every inch of spacetime in its way.
Ye Qingqing's jade-like face turned ferocious. She raised her sword up high and swung down.
Boom!
The fist imprint burst into pieces, but Ye Qingqing flew thousands of meters away, cutting a sorry figure in mid-air. Before she could stabilize herself, hundreds of supreme elites were already charging at her.
Ye Qingqing's sword intent bloomed once more, and her face became pallid at the exertion. There were just too many supreme elites to suppress. Left with no other choice, Ye Qingqing swung her sword, and a myriad of sword lights flew out.
A cacophony of deafening explosions filled the air, and shockwaves spread in all directions, pushing back the oncoming enemies. Ye Qingqing was forced to retreat amidst the chaos.
Ye Qingqing soon managed to stabilize herself and found that she had suffered quite a few injuries. Blood trickled slowly from her lips, and her dress was soaked in blood; her face had become beyond pallid as well.
Ye Qingqing had always been fighting against overwhelming numbers ever since she rescued Ye Guan. Right now, she was reaching her limits. Of course, it could also be attributed to the fact that she was suppressing her cultivation base.
Swoosh!
A fist imprint flew toward Ye Qingqing, forcing her to snap back to reality. She looked up and saw Guzhen staring at her maniacally. Ye Qingqing's eyes flashed coldly; she glanced at Ye Guan and saw that the latter had lost the majority of his sanity.
Seeing that, Ye Qingqing decided to stop suppressing her cultivation base. Taking a step forward, she thrust her sword toward the oncoming fist imprint.
Boom!
The fist imprint shattered with a deafening explosion, but Ye Qingqing didn't get blasted away. She seemed to have been unaffected by the attack as she rushed at Guzhen and thrust her sword toward the latter's neck.
Guzhen’s expression changed drastically, and his heart quivered in shock. How come her sword had become so much stronger? He didn't dare to face Ye Qingqing's sword and chose to retreat.
However, Ye Qingqing chased him with unprecedented speed.
Guzhen’s pupils constricted at the sight. Alarmed, he instinctively swung his fist, unleashing a torrent of fist lights.
However, Ye Qingqing's sword easily shattered the torrent of fist lights. Then, a radiant sword light erupted as Ye Qingqing's sword pierced Guzhen’s chest.
The sword light soon dispersed, revealing Ye Qingqing standing behind Guzhen.
Guzhen’s eyes were filled with a hodgepodge of shock and bewilderment.
How come she suddenly became so strong?
Ye Qingqing's sword annihilated Guzhen's soul.
Moments later, a myriad of attacks flew toward Ye Qingqing.
Ye Qingqing remained calm in the face of so many attacks. She raised her sword slowly and slashed out horizontally.
Boom!
The sword wave obliterated the attacks, and the crowd of supreme elites was pushed back. However, they charged at Ye Qingqing once again. Clearly, they were not going to stop until Ye Qingqing was dead.
Ye Qingqing's gaze suddenly became as cold as a thousand-year-old icy cavern as she stared at the oncoming enemies. The next moment, the sword in her hand trembled violently.
