Refined a Hundred Times, Soft Enough to Coil Around a Finger

Seeing the decisive opportunity arrive, Li Ban acted decisively, raising his halberd to the sky and unleashing twelve percent of his power. Dense Blood Qi condensed into a pillar of blood, rising from the ground and towering towards the sky, filled with a tragic and murderous intent.

"Beast Universe of Eight Directions, Thousand Ferocious Souls!"

Seeing this, the Beast King Anye also activated its ultimate move, unleashing its Cultivation Body close to that of Void Returning Great Grandmaster. Countless phantom images of beast souls appeared behind it, including normal animals and beasts as well as strange divine beasts that only existed in mythology. They all raised their heads and roared, their power shaking the heavens.

"Yes, it's definitely now. I've finally waited for this moment."

Faced with a life-or-death situation, Si Ming instead showed joy. He wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth, put away the Crimson Scorpion Evil Saber, and danced with only the Wheel-Turning King Sword. His whole body's energy became one, and he soared into the air. With the sword light flashing, the Intent to Slay Evil was activated. The Sword Qi energy was like a starry sky, with many stars shining brightly.

The reason he didn't use the Evil-Slaying Sword Technique in the previous battles was that although he had mastered the Swordsmanship technique, he had never used it in actual combat, so it was difficult to guarantee its effectiveness. Moreover, once the opponent was on guard, the element of surprise would be lost. In particular, the Beast King Anye had been entangled with the Evil-Slaying Sword School for over a hundred years, and Si Ming absolutely did not believe that he had no corresponding defensive measures.

Therefore, rather than revealing this trump card too early, it is better to wait until both sides have no choice but to use it at the crucial moment, so as to maximize the effect of the Evil-Slaying Sword Intent and decide the outcome in one move.

"With a sword drawn, stars race across ten thousand miles, slaying all!"

Chapter 563 Hundred-Refined Finger-Wrapping Softness

Sparkling with starlight, flashing with sword light, the Sword Qi transforms into stars, as if the stars have descended to earth.

The next moment, the sun rose and the moon set, the stars shifted and the sky was filled with Sword-Ray that suddenly began to rotate, gradually forming a galaxy vortex. As Si Ming swung his sword down, the galaxy vortex plummeted from the sky, the dense Sword-Ray pouring down like mercury, penetrating every crevice and leaving no room to dodge.

How could he know the Evil-Slaying Sword Technique?

"This move has such variations!"

The Beast King Anye and Li Ban exclaimed in surprise at the same time. They had an inextricable grudge with the Evil-Slaying Sword School Sect, so they were naturally very familiar with this Swordsmanship. However, even the Beast King, who had been entangled with the Evil-Slaying Sword School Sect for hundreds of years, had never seen this ultimate move and its subsequent changes, such as the evolution of the Star River Vortex.

For example, Elder Yue last time summoned the Starry Sword Qi and launched a powerful attack with his sword, unleashing an offensive similar to a meteor shower, rather than the current attack that spun and crushed like a millstone. Moreover, Elder Yue could only generate a maximum of three hundred Starry Sky Sword Qi, after all, he was not even Grandmaster, while Zheng Jingyuan of the Evil-Cleaving Sword -Slaying Sword could generate one thousand two hundred, and Sect Master Wan Yebai was the strongest of the current generation of the Evil-Slaying Sword School, able to generate one thousand five hundred.

But these two renowned sword Grandmaster in the martial arts world are not even worthy of carrying the shoes of this Alliance Leader Sima, who has developed a full eight thousand swords!

Li Ban and the Beast King Anye both sensed something was wrong. Their opponent clearly knew the Evil-Slaying Sword Technique, yet he had been holding back, obviously waiting for the perfect moment to strike. However, their ultimate moves were already complete, and they had no choice but to unleash them. If they withdrew now, their fate would only be more miserable. So, they had no choice but to grit their teeth and unleash their ultimate moves with all their might.

Starry Sky Sword Qi, Blood Cloud Halberd, and Myriad Beast Blade Soul—three vast waves of energy clashed with each other. In terms of total Primal Qi, the latter two undoubtedly surpassed the former. However, after a brief stalemate, the former quickly gained the upper hand. The Evil-Slaying Sword Intent destroyed evil and filth, producing a powerful restraining effect on the filthy Blood Qi and Power of Anomalies.

The Blood Cloud Halberd was the first to succumb, being annihilated by the Star River Vortex. Thousands of beast souls swarmed forward, one after another. Although their Primal Qi was much greater, it often took ten beast souls to counteract one Sword Qi, and their power rapidly diminished.

"This is bad..."

Realizing his side was about to be defeated, and that once he was caught in the galactic vortex, he would be severely injured even if he didn't die, and there would be no way to escape afterward, Li Ban made a decisive move. He formed a hand Law Seals, and a Myriad Filth Tainted Blood flew from the tip of his tongue, instantly transforming into a blood dragon. A trace of heartache appeared on his face, but he did not hesitate for a moment. He ordered his blood dragon to withstand the impact, while he bit his tongue, spat out a mouthful of blood, and activated the Blood Escape Technique to escape quickly.

Seeing his comrades flee, the Beast King Anye, left to face the perilous situation alone, roared and a colossal demon god reappeared behind him. He swung his blade fiercely, the wind from the blade transforming into a hurricane that howled and surged, tearing through the sky and striking the vortex of the starry river, instantly shattering it. Si Ming, who was hiding within, was also knocked back and flew a hundred feet away.

However, after the galaxy vortex exploded, the scattered starlight Sword Qi did not dissipate, but quickly converged into one place, condensing into a ten-zhang-long sword of energy that shot out into the sky, slaying the demon god with One Sword strike. Its remaining momentum continued to penetrate the Beast King Anye.

Blood gushed out like a fountain, and the Beast King's upper body was almost cleaved in two. There was a huge sword wound on his chest, and his internal organs and flesh were clearly visible. Such an injury would be considered a serious injury even for the King of Monsters. Moreover, the wound still contained the Evil-Slaying Sword Qi. The Beast King lost the will to continue fighting. He glanced deeply at Si Ming in the distance, and then turned into light and left.

"I actually won! Haha, one against two, one of whom was a strong opponent of the same level. This victory is something I can brag about for a long time."

Si Ming pushed aside the large tree that was pressing down on him, stood up, dusted himself off, and pondered, "The Blazing Sun True Qi enhances the Evil-Slaying Sword Technique, especially its ultimate moves, which is beyond my expectations. In that case, I'm not without a chance of killing the Beast King Anye. Hmm... never mind, now's not the time to think about that. Let's see how the others are doing."

Black and White Impermanence faced Shang Yu, they knew she was the sect leader's beloved. Having also received prior instructions, they dared not use their killing moves and instead found themselves at a disadvantage. Fortunately, Shang Yu could not control Liu Qingqing's body as easily as she pleased; other people's bodies are ultimately different from her own. Therefore, she could not use the martial arts of the Evil-Slaying Sword School Sect and could only use the "Five Calamities of the Cosmic Dharma Ending" she learned from Li Ban to fight her, making it difficult for her to win in a short time.

Wu Xiu was facing two Grandmaster alone, but her best skill, poison, was countered. In addition, she also had to protect Murong Wu, so she was forced to defend herself.

The Evil Seal Master Mao Wei specializes in the Five Evil Seals, with bizarre and unpredictable moves and Anomalies special effects that are difficult to defend against. The Blood Shadow Sword Diao Mei cultivates the Phantom Shadow Sword Technique and Blood Path Evil Arts, which are deceptive and ruthless.

"Tsk, always causing me trouble. Fighting is not my forte."

Faced with a double attack, Wu Xiu bent and stretched, leaping more than ten feet into the air. Her attack range was greatly expanded, and her figure spun rapidly in mid-air. Her left sleeve was as smooth as water and clouds, blocking all the sword shadows that were difficult to distinguish from the real ones. At the same time, her right palm fluttered down like a hundred butterflies, shattering the Ghostly Evil Seal with a single palm strike, and then faced Mao Wei's palms.

Although the Ghostly Evil Seal can ignore the physical body and directly attack the soul, Wu Xiu has Spirit Transformation for many years. Under the nourishment of "Spirit Transformation to become a divine realm", his soul is no weaker than that of a Grandmaster cultivator. His consciousness only wavered slightly before returning to normal. The Reverse Countering True Qi surged and automatically transformed into the counteracting attribute, unstoppable and instantly injuring Mao Wei.

"This guy's Internal Cultivation is strange, don't make contact with him!" Mao Wei hurriedly warned his companion as he coughed up blood.

Having been reminded, Diao Mei abandoned her plan to launch a powerful attack with the Blood Brand Divine Palm and retreated, unaware that she had missed the opportunity to injure her enemy with a single blow.

While the Reverse Countering Marvelous Art has the advantage of being unstoppable when attacking enemies, it also has the disadvantage of being unstoppable when attacked by others. Mao Wei was unaware of this, and only assumed that the opponent's Internal Cultivation was the kind of technique similar to the Evil-Slaying Sword Technique, which counters evil arts.

However, Diao Mei understood the principle of picking on the weak, and immediately spurred her sword to attack Murong Wu. As a member of the Evil Dao, she had no intention of saving face or bullying the weak.

Wu Xiu had no choice but to turn back to save her disciple, throwing a punch from afar. Seeing that her plan had succeeded, Diao Mei smiled triumphantly and retaliated with One Sword strike, swift as lightning, at a tricky angle, aimed straight at a vital point.

Wu Xiu quickly changed her move, transforming her right hand into a claw to grab the enemy's sword, while her other hand became a fist. She leaned forward and threw a punch, clearly sacrificing her right hand to try and kill her opponent—a method of exchanging injury for life.

How could Diao Mei agree to such an unfavorable deal? The Phantom Shadow Sword Technique has corresponding Movement Method. She immediately pulled back her right shoulder, switched the sword to her left hand, and shifted her feet, subtly incorporating countless variations. She slightly avoided the attack, gaining a moment to catch her breath. Then, a flash of sword light appeared, even faster and stronger than before. Clearly, her left-hand sword was more skillful than her right-hand sword.

If Wu Xiu had been determined to severely injure her opponent with one blow, she would have been unable to dodge this left-handed sword strike. Fortunately, her plan from the beginning was to relieve the siege of Wei by attacking Zhao, rather than to injure the enemy. After creating a sliver of space, she immediately turned around, grabbed Murong Wu, and fled.

"Don't even think about it!"

The Diao Mei sword intent locked onto Wu Xiu. Sensing the enemy's retreat, Wu Xiu advanced, his Sword Intent surging, transforming into a dark shadow lurking on the ground, pursuing her like a venomous snake.

Forced into a corner, Wu Xiu had no choice but to take One Sword strike head-on. With a flick of her fingers, both of them shuddered and retreated.

Taking advantage of the situation, Mao Wei dared not make close contact with his opponent. Instead, he activated the Human Evil Seal, summoning countless Yin soldiers to attack from a distance. Wu Xiu was unable to catch his breath and, despite using his strength to unleash several punches in mid-air, deflecting many Yin soldiers, he was still injured.

"Master!"

Murong Wu spoke with concern, and felt a pang of guilt in his heart.

Previously, due to differences in philosophy and Wu Xiu's rather strict teaching style, he harbored resentment towards this master who looked younger than him, feeling that the other party might not care about him. Now it seems that he had been judging a gentleman by his own petty standards. The other party's teaching methods may have some questionable aspects, but his original intention was to benefit him.

"Master, don't worry about me, let's split up and escape."

Sensing the concern in her disciple's tone, Wu Xiu smiled faintly, knowing that her elaborate scheme had succeeded. She immediately and righteously refused, saying, "What kind of master would abandon their disciple and run away alone?"
