I Have a Sword

Chapter 884: I'll Use Them Well

The battle resumed as soon as the Heavenly Ruler Demon charged out.

The rest of the group also charged at the Evil Dao Alliance's Path Creation Realm cultivators. Their goal was to eliminate all these cultivators first and then join forces to deal with the Eighth Hall Master.

The Eighth Hall Master turned and transformed into an afterimage, heading straight for Ye Guan. His goal was to claim the leader's head first. If he could take down Ye Guan, the powerful figures from the Ascension World would fall into disarray.

At that point, the Evil Dao Alliance cultivators could easily deal with them.

Seeing the Eighth Hall Master making a beeline for him, Ye Guan's eyes narrowed, but he didn't hesitate, even though he instantly saw through the Eighth Hall Master's intentions.

Ye Guan clenched his fists, and the power of his two special bloodlines stirred.

Boom, boom!

Two streaks of bloodline power swept across the heavens and earth. Ye Guan stepped forward and thrust his sword forward fiercely. He was going to confront the Eighth Hall Master head-on!

Bam!

When the sword light and black light collided, Ye Guan and the Eighth Hall Master were blasted away.

Ye Guan was forced back by nearly a thousand meters before he was enveloped by a gentle force once again, making him feel as if he had fallen into a pile of cotton.

He knew that this was Hengshan Ying's doing. He had to admit that this woman was unbeatable when it came to supporting others.

Meanwhile, the Eighth Hall Master had just come to a stop and was about to strike again when his black blade suddenly shattered into countless pieces with a loud crack!

The Eighth Hall Master's eyes narrowed in shock and surprise.

The black blade was no ordinary weapon. Among the many divine artifacts of the Evil Dao Alliance, it was pretty high in rank, but after only two collisions with Ye Guan's sword, it actually gave in and shattered.

Even more shocking was that its sentient spirit was also destroyed.

The Eighth Hall Master stared at the Qingxuan Sword in Ye Guan's hand with a newfound seriousness. He had to admit that he had underestimated the sword.

The Eighth Hall Master recalled something just then and turned to Hengshan Ying, asking, "Who are you, really?"

Hengshan Ying smiled but said nothing.

The Eighth Hall Master's figure trembled as he tore through space, charging straight at her. Compared to Ye Guan, Hengshan Ying was more troublesome.

In the face of the Eighth Hall Master's charge, Hengshan Ying showed no fear at all. She was about to make a move when a sword light appeared in front of her.

Bang!

Ye Guan's sword stopped the Eighth Hall Master dead in his tracks. The Eighth Hall Master shot upward before stomping down fiercely.

Bam!

The sword light shattered, and Ye Guan plummeted straight down. However, a gentle energy immediately cushioned his fall, allowing him to turn into a streak of sword light and soar back up to slash out at the Eighth Hall Master.

Schwing!

The sword light tore through everything.

In the sky, a fierce glint flashed in the Eighth Hall Master's eyes. He spread his arms wide and clapped, generating a thunderous boom. The next moment, a three-hundred-meter-tall ghost statue materialized behind him. The statue looked terrifying. Its eyes were blood-red, and it had fangs that were several dozen feet long. Its upper body was bare and was covered in strange black and red runes. It was holding a colossal axe in its right hand; overall, the statue radiated an extreme aura of malevolence.

A ghost statue!

The Eighth Hall Master couldn't afford a prolonged fight with Ye Guan. Given their numerical disadvantage, dragging out the fight would be unfavorable for him. Furthermore, he realized through their exchanges that Ye Guan was no ordinary opponent.

Even a lion had to use its full strength when hunting a rabbit.

Just then, Ye Guan tilted his head back and roared.

Boom!

A divine statue representing his bloodline condensed behind him—the Mad Demon Divine Statue!

Waves of terrifying bloodline pressure pervaded the heavens; the air became thick with an ominous aura and killing intent.

"Sword!" Ye Guan roared. The divine statue behind him reached out, and a blood-red sword formed in its grasp. The Qingxuan Sword!

As soon as the statue held the sword, its aura surged wildly.

Hengshan Ying gazed at his bloodline statue in awe and curiosity.

The Eighth Hall Master glared at Ye Guan and yelled, "Come, let me see just how monstrous you truly are!"

The ghost statue behind him roared and threw a punch at Ye Guan. It was just a punch, but it shattered the nearby star field.

Almost at the same time, the bloodline statue behind Ye Guan raised the Qingxuan Sword and slashed down fiercely.

A head-on confrontation!

When the ghost statue's fist collided with the bloodline statue's sword—

Boom!

—A deafening explosion echoed, followed by a terrifying shockwave of ghost Dao energy and bloodline power. In the blink of an eye, the shockwaves traveled millions of kilometers across the vast expanse.

The myriad beings of this universe region were affected, and their hearts trembled as they retreated in a hurry.

Everyone was shocked, especially Dao Jun and the Heavenly Ruler Demon.

They knew the Eighth Hall Master was formidable, but they hadn't expected Ye Guan to be so formidable as well.

Is he really just a full divinity cultivator? He's too strong!

"Die!" the Eighth Hall Master roared. Immediately afterward, the enormous ghost statue leaped forward, crashing into Ye Guan's Mad Demon Divine Statue.

The enormous ghost statue carried with it a momentum so overwhelming that it made everyone feel like the heavens and earth were collapsing before them.

Ye Guan's eyes shone fiercely in determination. With a single thought on his end, his bloodline statue jumped forward. Wielding the Qingxuan Sword with both hands, it slashed down fiercely at the opponent.

It was yet another head-on clash!

At this level of combat, only head-on clashes were effective.

Boom!

Everyone on the battlefield felt their eardrums burst, and they were blasted away by the terrifying shockwaves of Ye Guan and the Eighth Hall Master's head-on confrontation.

At the same time, Ye Guan's divine statue and the Eighth Hall Master's ghost statue exploded, transforming into waves of energy that rippled throughout the star field.

Ye Guan flew as if he were a kite that had its strings cut. While in mid-air, a shadow appeared before him like a lightning bolt; the shadow's aura was so overwhelming that he felt as if a million mountains were collapsing on him.

The shadow was the Eighth Hall Master's colossal fist!

Killing intent flashed in Ye Guan's eyes. He didn't retreat, but he couldn't retreat even if he wanted to do so. Left with no choice, he thrust his sword forward.

Bam!

The sword light was shattered, and Ye Guan was sent flying again. The moment he flew away, a gentle force enveloped him, and a mysterious energy surged into his body like a tidal wave.

Boom!

Ye Guan's aura skyrocketed, and he reached the Transcension Realm. The mysterious energy had raised his cultivation base!

Shocked, Ye Guan turned and saw Hengshan Ying smiling faintly at him.

Ye Guan was truly stupefied. The ability to boost someone from the Divine Dao Realm all the way to the Transcension Realm was just absurd!

There were secret techniques that a cultivator could use to temporarily reach the next cultivation realm, but those techniques would become less effective the higher the cultivator's cultivation base. Ye Guan was at the peak of full divinity, and his every step forward involved the Great Dao. In other words, even though there were secret techniques capable of boosting his cultivation realm to the next realm, he'd have to pay a massive price to use those techniques.

The most astonishing part wasn't the boost; it was the mysterious power within him, and it was a power that clearly did not belong to him.

Suppressing his shock, Ye Guan turned his gaze to the Eighth Hall Master.

After stopping, the Eighth Hall Master looked down at his own right hand and saw that it had shattered completely, with blood flowing out of the wound.

Although he had forced Ye Guan back, his arm could not withstand the power of the Qingxuan Sword. He raised his head and looked at Hengshan Ying with eyes full of killing intent.

The thorn in the side was not Ye Guan but Hengshan Ying. If it hadn't been for her continuous support, Ye Guan would have lost to him long ago, even with the Qingxuan Sword.

The Eighth Hall Master glared at Hengshan Ying and exclaimed, "Who exactly are you?!"

He believed that there was no way she was an ordinary person.

Hengshan Ying smiled slightly and said, "I was hired by Young Master Ye."

Hired? He paid her? The Eighth Hall Master's eyes narrowed. Then, he opened his palm, revealing five Eternal Crystals. "Assist me, and these five Eternal Crystals will be yours."

He then glanced at Dao Jun, Ci Tian, and Prime Minister Yuan, adding, "If any of you are willing to come to my side, each of you will also receive five Eternal Crystals."

Everyone paused, turning their attention to him.

Dao Jun, Ci Tian, and Prime Minister Yuan's expressions darkened. Instead of replying, they moved to stand beside Ye Guan, protecting him. Ye Guan's collaborators had just become a risk due to the Eighth Hall Master's declaration.

The Heavenly Ruler Demon and the others looked at each other but remained silent.

The Eighth Hall Master stared deeply at Hengshan Ying and asked, "So what do you say?"

Hengshan Ying glanced at Ye Guan and was about to speak when a voice echoed out from afar. "Do you mean what you said?"

The speaker was one of the mysterious black-robed figures that Xiu Wu had brought along with him.

Completely shrouded in a black robe and with a mask over his face, the individual's true appearance was thoroughly hidden.

The Eighth Hall Master looked at him and said, "Of course."

The same mysterious black-robed figure said, "The three of us don't trust the Evil Dao Alliance, so please pay us first."

Xiu Wu immediately looked displeased; Dao Jun and the others reacted the same.

Ye Guan remained calm. Knowing that these people were here to help him for the sake of some profit, their actions were completely understandable in his eyes.

The Eighth Hall Master pondered briefly before saying, "Sure."

With that, he opened his palm, and fifteen Eternal Crystals flew into the hands of the mysterious black-robed figure.

After receiving the Eternal Crystals, the mysterious black-robed figure turned to look at Ye Guan.

Dao Jun and the others quickly stepped in front of Ye Guan with vigilant expressions.

Moments later, the mysterious black-robed figure opened his palm, and five Eternal Crystals floated gently toward Ye Guan.

Everyone was dumbfounded.

The mysterious black-robed figure cupped his fist and said respectfully, "Young Master Ye, the Evil Dao Alliance is stalling for time. Their reinforcements will surely arrive soon. We're only here for some profits, and we don't want to risk our lives at all. We accepted three Eternal Crystals from you, and now we're returning five. Please allow us to leave, and please don't nurse a grudge against us."

Ye Guan nodded slightly. "Sure. I understand where you're coming from."

The mysterious black-robed figure was surprised by Ye Guan's gentle reaction, but he hurriedly said, "Thank you."

The three of them bowed once again before disappearing into the distant horizon.

Ye Guan turned to look at the Eighth Hall Master grinned. "Thank you for the Eternal Crystals, Eighth Hall Master! I'll use them well!"
