Chapter 51 : Fierce Battle Part Two
Boom!
The first move of the “Heavenly Sword One Heart” technique unleashed a powerful sword aura. However, the Butterfly of Sunflowers was not Tyr, and despite her high level of skill, using this sword technique while injured proved insufficient. The impact on the Emperor’s Origin Sword only managed to create a small fissure. But in the next moment, Neruko’s lava boulder came crashing in, exploding upon contact with the Emperor’s Origin Sword!
The sky was painted red, but in the next moment, a golden light once again illuminated the entire forest. The Emperor’s Origin Sword emerged slowly from the smoke, bearing an unparalleled might as it pressed down once more! If it weren’t for the numerous dense cracks on the body of the Emperor’s Origin Sword, Neruko would have thought her magic had no effect on it whatsoever.
Diaz’s emotions surged as he accelerated the descent of his long sword, eagerly anticipating Ye Xi’s counterattack!
And Ye Xi also responded.
Triple compression.
Ye Xi murmured to herself, and at the same time, behind her, there was a noticeable distortion in space, and the air became thin at this moment.
Ye Xi once again lowered her body, her right hand touching the ground with all five fingers, her indifference in her eyes unwavering. In the next moment, she had already appeared beneath the Emperor’s Origin Sword!
The earth cracked rapidly after Ye Xi left, as if trampled by an army. Large swathes of trees leaned and twisted, and even the Butterfly of Sunflowers and Neruko were almost shaken by the aftermath of Ye Xi’s explosive speed. The lakes at the edge of the forest also became turbulent, terrifying the creatures within, each trembling as they buried themselves in the muddy ground.
At this moment, all eyes converged on the massive Emperor’s Origin Sword and the close presence of Ye Xi. Everything seemed to slow down in this instant. Ye Xi’s white shoulder-length hair fluttered in the wind, and the short blade in her hand emitted a dazzling light under the blazing sun.
With a flicker, as Ye Xi silently recited in her mind, the already unbelievable speed of her turned into a white light in this instant. She only lingered on the Emperor’s Origin Sword for about half a second before piercing through its blade!
The enormous Emperor’s Origin Sword was finally severed into two by Ye Xi with a single stroke!
Neruko on the ground cheered, and even the Butterfly of Sunflowers and Damiyala smiled because the appearance of this sword had put too much pressure on them.
However, Diaz’s words, as if they were going to shake heaven and earth, erupted at this moment.
“Hahaha, well done, Ye Xi! Well done indeed! You’re amazing, but this isn’t over yet!”
Diaz’s deafening voice made Tyr and Claude, who were close by, quickly cover their ears. They exchanged a glance, both expressing their helplessness.
But indeed, Diaz lived up to his reputation. He single-handedly held off the four opponents in front of him, pushing them to exert their utmost efforts.
Obviously, Diaz was even stronger now than during the assessment, a fact that Tyr, who had gone through it with him, was keenly aware of. What was baffling, however, was that it had only been two or three days. Could this be the progress expected of a true genius?
As Diaz’s words fell, the Emperor’s Origin Sword, which had been severed into two, suddenly disintegrated with a thunderous roar. However, it didn’t vanish into the void but instead coalesced into countless streams of light elemental power, filling the sky!
In the blink of an eye, the upper half of the light elemental power, severed by Ye Xi, rushed towards Neruko, the Butterfly of Sunflowers, and Damiyala, while the other half, in a 180-degree surround, attacked Ye Xi alone!
“See that! This! This is the true Emperor’s Origin Sword, my Emperor’s Origin Sword!!”
Diaz’s passionate voice made Tyr and Claude’s faces flush. For some reason, they both wished they could find a hole to hide in right now. If they could pretend not to know Diaz, they would definitely play the role of strangers immediately.
Tyr imagined himself shouting…
“See this! This is the true Heavenly Sword’s Heart, my Heavenly Sword’s Heart!!”
Alright, before the enemy even manages to kill us, we might already have the impulse to commit suicide.
As for Diaz, with his passionate expression, handsome gestures, and unwavering gaze, Tyr could only imagine giving him a thumbs-up and shouting, “From the time I can remember until now, I’ve never admired anyone, but seeing you, Diaz, I, Tyr, truly admire you.”
However, unlike the relaxed atmosphere here, Neruko and the others had already suffered a deadly blow. The Butterfly of Sunflowers was the first to be knocked out by countless streams of light elemental power, while Neruko used the magic shield emanating from her huge staff to withstand the onslaught. However, at this critical moment, Kagura Xiaoqi, who had been hiding her strength, suddenly attacked. With her entire body enveloped in dark elemental power, she joined forces with the light elemental power to continuously pressure Neruko until her shield finally shattered, and countless streams of light elemental power came crashing down. Fortunately, at this moment, Damiyala arrived. Her singing once again echoed, and a ten-meter-tall snail appeared in front of Neruko, blocking all the streams of light elemental power. Without hesitation, Damiyala pulled Neruko into the snail’s shell, seeking refuge.
“Wow~ Thought I was gonna die!” Neruko exclaimed as she entered the shell, immediately releasing the huge staff in her hand and sitting down on the ground. The giant snail’s head retracted into its shell, looking at Neruko and Damiyala with a puzzled expression in its pure eyes. However, because Damiyala was the summoner, it harbored no hostility and didn’t mind Neruko and Damiyala entering its ‘home,’ only feeling curious.
“Wow!! Eww~ Sticky creature~” Neruko immediately stood up, feeling the viscous liquid on her skirt and couldn’t help but make a disgusted expression. Meanwhile, Damiyala kept looking outside the shell. Most of the light elemental power surrounded Ye Xi, as if all the light elemental power was obeying Diaz’s command, scattering one by one to encircle Ye Xi completely. From all directions, whether above or below, east, west, south, or north, there was no direction without the light elemental power!
Diaz knew that the opponent had the explosive power to accelerate to the extreme, and a delay could lead to change. So, without time for victory declaration, Diaz urged all the light elemental power to attack!
Ye Xi watched the overwhelming attacks that covered the sky and blocked out the sun. She shook her head slightly. Although her gaze remained indifferent, it revealed more of a sense of helplessness.
“I didn’t expect to encounter such a monster right after starting school.”
“Encountering a genius monster is not the reason for Ye Xi’s helplessness; what’s truly helpless is that she’s forced to use her true abilities right after starting school.”
“Distance, three meters.”
In the next instant, all the elemental forces of light in the sky suddenly retreated under Ye Xi’s voice, dispersing one by one, and the spacing happened to become three meters. Ye Xi changed direction in the air, and the space under her feet suddenly compressed, followed by an explosion!
As Ye Xi darted out of the encirclement, the boundless light elemental forces in the sky once again stirred, bombarding the spot where Ye Xi had originally been. The sky was now dominated by golden light, surpassing even the brilliance of the sun!
And at this moment, Ye Xi had safely landed on the ground.
