Immortal of the Ages

Upon hearing Yun Xiao's words and seeing his bloodthirsty visage, Feng Yao finally realized he was truly angry.

"Is this what they call anger for a sweetheart?"

From being a lowly maid to a sweetheart, it was an undeniable upgrade.Nôv(el)B\\jnn

With this, all her grievances vanished, and she now had a place to vent all her earlier frustration and anger.

"If Yun Xiao hadn't returned in time, we would've been toast! It doesn't matter if those people from the Alliance Army aren't directly related. They're still accomplices who gathered together to gang up on the Harmony Divine Palace! They should've been prepared to lose their lives!"

Feng Yao looked up. She saw that the Alliance Army wasn’t even bothering to hide their contempt for Carefree Windy Clouds. They were still fighting, clashing, and clamoring for the Southern Divine Dragon Realm!

"These fools still believe these five can suppress him?" Feng Yao glanced at Yun Xiao’s cold figure, feeling immense relief—as if with this formidable support behind her, she had nothing to fear and could act recklessly.

Her seven-foot frame surged skyward, delivering Yun Xiao's new orders to Zu Wei, Bai Lu, Hai Qing, Shen Nanyin, and the others…

Killing in war was an undeniable reality, but Yun Xiao's decisive orders shook them to the core.

After all, until now, Yun Xiao had been relatively merciful, focusing on recruiting the followers of the Dragon Devil Clan and Heavenly Deity Alliance sects.

"Really?" Hai Qing and the others felt a mix of emotions. They knew that exterminating so many geniuses would only bring a tenfold catastrophe upon the Harmony Divine Palace.

"I don't know, I'm just following his orders. He said not to leave a single enemy. So, that's what we'll do!" Feng Yao stated coldly. Pausing, she added, "This is his style. He prefers to end conflicts with killing, slaughtering until his opponents are fearful and shaken, leaving no room for ambiguity."

In short, as long as the person in front of them was an enemy, they would be killed without exception!

"Then kill!"

Recalling the earlier cruelty of the Dragon Devil Clan and contempt of the Alliance Army, how could Hai Qing and the others not be furious?

"Kill!"

Shen Nanyin and Shi Feifei couldn't afford to hesitate. If complete submission to Yun Xiao was their only chance of survival, they might as well commit fully, since there was no turning back.

With Yun Xiao's decisive orders, all those affiliated with Carefree Windy Clouds became even more ruthless. The battle between the two sides' geniuses reached a fever pitch.

There were almost 50 geniuses in each of the three Heavenly Deity Alliance sects, accompanied by the 1,000 Alliance Army troops. Indeed, they still had the strength to entangle in battle!

Both sides continued to fight to the death, their spirits high and their killing fierce.

All their determination stemmed from that one core battlefield where victory had yet to be decided!

"Don't be afraid! Long Zhen only died because Yun Xiao caught him by surprise!"

"There's still the Young Dragon Lords of the Black and White Dragons, and they're the strongest! Their combined combat power is extraordinary."

"The strongest is still Xiao Ming. He's a devil in the Mid Fifth Baptism Realm, the strongest devil in the Heavenly Deity Stellar River region of the Grand Assembly Arena!"

"Blood Weaver is basically unkillable. If she joins the fight, that celestial slave is doomed."

"Tang Zhenyan is the strongest!"

"Five against one, is there any suspense?"

"A single move from any of them can crush that celestial slave!"

The more intense the war, the more heated the conflict became. They sustained their morale purely from belief. Besides putting all their faith in these five great talents, the Alliance Army had no other choice.

Even knowing that Yun Xiao had dealt with Zhao Canglan, Yun Lingchen, and the others, the Alliance Army still believed he must have used despicable means. This was the original sin of pride in human nature—too much arrogance would make it impossible to shed that thick layer of pride.

Unless they were truly beaten to a pulp, they wouldn’t feel the pain!

"Kill that celestial slave! Kill that celestial slave!"

They were even unwilling to believe that Yun Xiao wasn't a celestial slave. After all, this news came from the enemy.

That thunderous call still echoed from the heavens, striking Yun Xiao with a cold sneer. Each laugh was filled with the arrogance of these so-called geniuses.

And the five before Yun Xiao was the source of that arrogance.

These five great talents narrowed their eyes, their cold gazes piercing Yun Xiao... and the Extreme Yin Parent Flag fluttering behind him!

"He's the Star Liege. Kill him, and the power of the Extreme Yin Star Barrier will wane. Capture the Parent Flag, and the outcome is decided!" Xiao Ming, with his fifteen-foot frame, dominated the front, his voice like a beast.

"Together!"

"Yes!"

Xiao Ming's four muscular arms clutched four bloodstained war axes, dripping with fresh blood.

The Young Dragon Lords Long Mu and Long Mo stood on either side, transforming into Dragon Devils. Their auras were indeed stronger than Long Hao's.

Blood Weaver wove a silky blood cloud above Xiao Ming, filled with ghostly wails and countless vengeful spirits.

Meanwhile, Tang Zhenyan hid silently in the darkness behind Xiao Ming, the easiest to overlook but the most deadly!

“Kill!”

The five roared almost simultaneously, channeling the battle intent of the 1,500 Alliance Army troops. They unleashed their tribulation power. Though they were only in the Fifth Baptism Realm, their divine might obscured the heavens and blocked the sun as they charged directly at Yun Xiao!

Their assault intensified the chaotic battlefield, erupting into cheers and clamor, stirring massive waves!

Xiao Ming wielded four blood-stained war axes, the two Young Dragon Lords brandished gigantic Palm Swords, Blood Weaver unleashed a great bloody net, and Tang Zhenyan activated his Thunder Sword Soul and Flame Sigil. Together, they formed a barrage of deadly strikes, surging forward with lethal intent!

Their eyes burned with unwavering confidence and grim determination, their murderous aura overwhelming the sky!

“In the Heavenly Deity Stellar River, opposing our Dragon Devil Clan is like battling the heavens themselves. Even with eternal talent, you will become nothing but withered bones!”

The cold laughter of the two Young Dragon Lords echoed from all directions, amplified by the support of the Alliance Army, making their taunts even more piercing…

However, in the face of this overwhelming onslaught, Yun Xiao remained utterly impassive from start to finish.

As fierce winds swept by, lifting his long hair and white robes, Yun Xiao stepped into the storm. In his hand appeared the azure Heaven Burial Sword Soul!

Above Yun Xiao's head soared the Buddha's Treasure Spirit, from which black and gold lotuses emerged. Each petal converged in its hand, transforming into a black and gold lotus sword!

The Buddha's Treasure Spirit held the lotus sword, and the white-clad Yun Xiao gripped a three-foot azure blade. Both stood in identical stances, gathering energy for a single, decisive strike!

This was the pinnacle sword at Yun Xiao's current cultivation level!

The Primordial Sphere trembled as vast amounts of celestial energy converged on the dual swords. Both the Heaven Burial Sword Soul and lotus sword quivered, unleashing sword energy and a soul storm simultaneously!

Beside the Heaven Burial Sword Soul, space itself was torn apart, forming black void-like fissure blades that circled his sword!

“To date, Ling Chen’s Divine Sky Sword Arts has been highly developed, its power remains the strongest…”

What was Yun Xiao’s greatest strength? It was his unrivaled comprehension!

With this, his Palm Sword twisted the void, surging with a grim, cold aura!

This was the fusion of the strongest Yin Sword Embryo and Divine Sky Sword Arts!

Gripping the sword, Yun Xiao suddenly looked up amidst the gazes of the Alliance Army.

The blood-stained war axes, six-foot Palm Swords, blood-red spider webs, and more all hovered less than six feet from him. The savage killing intent was moments away from engulfing him, tearing him apart into fragments!

BUZZ! A furious hurricane whipped around!

In the heart of the storm, this was Yun Xiao’s most perilous moment. Countless spectators had their hearts racing…

Amid the flickering sparks and lightning, Yun Xiao curled the corner of his mouth.

“Compared to taking lives, you’re too green!”

Before his words could settle, his sword had already been unleashed!

In a split second, Yun Xiao drew his sword, sweeping it horizontally.

Almost simultaneously, his spirit also swept the black and gold lotus sword!

RIP! The Heaven Burial Sword Soul slashed out. The Extreme Yin Annihilator unleashed an extreme wave of cold, gathering countless spatial fractures like a furious azure dragon charging out fiercely!

This azure dragon was shadowed by a black and gold dragon, emanating killing intent!

This single sword was not just released. It was like a sword of destruction, clad in a chilling wave, with the Divine Sky Void Render as its core, soaring like a raging dragon across tens of thousands of miles, swallowing the heavens and earth in an instant!

A loud piercing crash shook the entire battlefield!

Everyone stared blankly, seeing the dragon sweep into a crescent arc. In a flash of light, it split all the combined assault of the five great talents into two!

Whether it was the blood-stained war axes, Palm Swords, or blood net, they all disintegrated on the spot, blood spilling everywhere.

"What..!?"

Xiao Ming, Long Mu, Long Mo, Blood Weaver, and Tang Zhenyan widened their eyes suddenly, feeling as if the heavens and earth had split apart right before them!

The heavens above and earth below, and they were caught in the middle!

The middle was the area swept by the crescent arc, where space shattered and souls disintegrated!

The black and gold lotus sword arc froze their spirits, making them instantly forget everything, leaving only deadly fear!

In their final moments, they only saw the white robed Yun Xiao looking at them with disdain, already sheathing his sword!

The youth drew his sword, then sheathed it!

In an instant, the five heads soared into the sky!

Only five headless corpses remained, whether burly or thin, all still driven by the momentum of their final charge…

Finally, all knelt before Yun Xiao!
