Chapter 14866 Battle with Yin Wujiu
Ling Xiao remained silent, his gaze fixed on Yin Wujiu not far away. His aura subtly turned icy, and faint spiritual energy fluctuations emanated from his fingertips as he secretly prepared for battle.
Just then, Ling Bi, standing beside him, suddenly mustered all her strength and shouted hoarsely, "Be careful! His blade is fast, and his combat power is extremely strong!"
Ling Xiao nodded slightly, indicating that he understood.
He looked up at the sky again and saw that the Holy Rune Academy and other supporting forces had slowly retreated to the outskirts of the Silent Court and did not approach rashly.
He did not send a message to Yao Tianji and others to come and provide support, because this was the heart of the Silent Extinction Court. The sect was heavily restricted, and many terrain features and formations would hinder them. If outsiders were to rashly break in and fight, they would be hampered and suffer more losses than gains!
In the clouds above, Yao Tianji stood with his hands behind his back, his gaze fixed on the direction of the Silent Court below. His expression was solemn. After a moment of silence, he solemnly ordered Jiang Chuan beside him, "Go and fetch that thing!"
Jiang Chuan was startled, an expression of disbelief on his face, and hurriedly tried to dissuade him:
"Senior brother...you absolutely mustn't! That item is our Holy Rune Academy's last trump card. If we use it, our Holy Rune Academy will have no way out!"
Yao Tianji slowly turned his head, looking firmly at Jiang Chuan, his tone leaving no room for argument: "Junior Brother Jiang, tell me, is material possessions more important, or is Ling Xiao's life more important?"
Jiang Chuan froze, the hesitation on his face vanishing instantly. He lowered his head heavily, said no more, and immediately turned into a streak of light, speeding towards the direction of the Holy Rune Academy...
He knew in his heart that Yao Tianji was right. In the hearts of everyone at the Holy Rune Academy, Ling Xiao was already an indispensable figure. Nothing external could compare to Ling Xiao's safety!
Just as Yao Tianji said, even if it means exhausting all the resources of the Holy Rune Academy and damaging the foundation of the sect, we must protect Ling Xiao and not allow him to suffer any mishap!
The atmosphere on the Silent Court Square had become extremely tense. The air seemed to have frozen, leaving only Ling Bi's faint breathing and the subtle, intertwined auras between the two sides.
Ling Xiao and Ling Bi stood side by side. Opposite them, Yin Wujiu suddenly sighed softly, his tone tinged with sorrow and resentment, and slowly spoke:
"I never imagined that one day, my Silent Extinction Court, a once mighty sect that once dominated the Xuan Domain, would fall to this state, with outsiders attacking our door and causing us to lose face. It is truly pitiful and lamentable!"
Wu Guang slowly walked to Yin Wujiu's side, his body surrounded by a cold aura, his tone indifferent and heavy: "The Silent Extinction Court has fallen to this state today, which is no accident. All of us who are still alive are to blame, and we cannot blame anyone else!"
Yin Wujiu nodded slowly, deeply agreeing: "You're right, that's exactly it!"
Having said that, his gaze fell back on Ling Xiao, his eyes sharp as knives, filled with scrutiny and greed. He cut to the chase: "I've heard of you, Ling Xiao! I've also heard that the supreme treasure lost by the Silent Extinction Court is now in your hands!"
Ling Xiao's lips curled up slightly, forming a mocking arc. He slowly opened his palm, and a dark, cold light suddenly burst forth.
The Demon Lord Black Heaven Sword appeared out of thin air in his palm, its blade swirling with eerie and boundless demonic energy, and a faint humming sound like a dragon's roar could be heard.
"The treasures of the Silent Court?" He scoffed, his tone full of disdain. "You traitors who have abandoned your sect dare to mention 'the treasures of the Silent Court'? Fine, the item is indeed in my hands! Want it?"
Yin Wujiu stared intently at the Demon Lord Black Heaven Sword in Ling Xiao's hand, a hint of greed flashing in his eyes, which was then replaced by solemnity. He said in a deep voice, "You are very arrogant! At such a young age, you dare to provoke me like this. You do have some guts."
Ling Xiao laughed loudly, his laughter hearty and unrestrained, piercing the deathly silence of the square. "Whether I'm arrogant or not, I'll still have to fight. Either way, it's a battle, so why not be a little arrogant and live a more enjoyable life?"
Yin Wujiu nodded slowly, a hint of approval flashing in his eyes, which was then replaced by a sharp glint:
"Even a powerful figure like Lin Hao died at your hands, which shows your extraordinary abilities. Come, let me personally test your mettle today and see just how much you, a junior, are worth, and whether you are worthy of possessing the supreme treasure of the Annihilation Court!"
As soon as he finished speaking, he slammed his left foot into the ground, and the instant his foot made contact with the ground...
boom!!!
A deafening roar shook the entire Silent Court. Violent spiritual power erupted from his body, instantly tearing apart the space around Ling Xiao. Grotesque spatial rifts spread out like a spider web, carrying an all-consuming power that pressed directly towards Ling Xiao!
Ling Xiao's eyes sharpened, and he suddenly shouted, "Condense!"
As soon as he shouted, his divine power surged, and an invisible barrier quietly appeared. The spatial rifts that had spread out were restored to their original state in an instant, as if they had never existed.
Spatial Holy Rune!
In that instant, a jet-black longsword suddenly pierced through the air, its blade gleaming with a chilling light and accompanied by a sharp, tearing sound, aimed straight at Ling Xiao's neck! Ling Xiao reacted with lightning speed, flipping his wrist to grip the Demon Lord Black Heaven Sword tightly, and unleashing a horizontal slash with his backhand.
boom!
The sound of metal clashing reverberated, and a violent shockwave swept in all directions like a tsunami. Ling Xiao's body trembled violently, and he staggered back several steps, crushing the bluestone slab beneath his feet.
Yin Wujiu, on the other hand, was also thrown back several feet by the force of the shockwave, and the ground he had just shattered was blown away by the shockwave, sending several pieces of rock flying.
Ling Xiao steadied himself, a cold glint flashing in his eyes. The Bloodthirsty Blade in his hand suddenly flew out, its blade transforming into a streak of light, carrying a world-destroying power, directly slashing at Yin Wujiu... It was one of his killing moves, the Blood Sacrifice Blade!
The blade flashed out like thunder, incredibly fast, tearing through the air in its path with a sharp whistling sound. Almost the instant it left his hand, it had already reached Yin Wujiu!
Yin Wujiu, standing some distance away, narrowed his eyes, his expression solemn. He dared not be careless in the slightest. With a flick of his wrist, he held his long sword horizontally in front of him, ready to parry.
boom!
The two blades clashed, unleashing another deafening roar. Yin Wujiu's longsword trembled violently, ripples spreading across its surface. He was forced to retreat abruptly, leaving a long trench in the ground beneath his feet.
Just as he was about to regain his footing, Ling Xiao suddenly activated the spatial runes, and in a flash, he appeared above him, raising the Bloodthirsty Blade high and slashing down with the force of splitting mountains and shattering rocks!
Yin Wujiu reacted extremely quickly. In the critical moment, he suddenly twisted his wrist, and his long sword swung up in a cunning manner, aiming straight for Ling Xiao's lower body...
His sword strikes were even faster than Ling Xiao's, and his sword was longer than Ling Xiao's, giving him a significant advantage.
However, Ling Xiao, who was in mid-air, showed no intention of sheathing his sword. Instead, he deliberately shifted his body to the left by a fraction of an inch, preferring to take a blow from the opponent in order to severely injure the enemy!
