War of Expansion (8)
"Everyone says Blade Cultivators are bloodthirsty. I'm now at the Golden Core Perfection stage, why not invite Yang Tianyou to a battle? If he agrees, I'll use the power of my True Blood Pool to annihilate him in the heat of battle. If he refuses, it will be a blow to the morale of Human Race cultivators, and in any case, my Blackblood City won't suffer any losses!"
The Lord of Blackblood City pondered this plan and then used Secret Method technique to send a message to his uncle Si Fan.
Upon hearing this, the latter pondered for a moment, then nodded slightly, agreeing to the plan.
On the Suppress Evil Boat, Zhiming's ears twitched, and he almost burst out laughing.
It never expected that the Lord of Blackblood City would willingly offer himself up for death.
To challenge one-on-one with one's master? Isn't that suicide?
Decades ago, relying on the power of their seven Spirit Beasts, their master was already able to confront Nascent Soul Early Stage cultivator head-on.
Now that their master has broken through to the Middle Golden Core, the seven of them have also made tremendous progress. After combining their strength through the Star-Chart Disk, their power is more than double what it was before.
Even if the Lord of Blackblood City achieves Nascent Soul combat power through the True Blood Pool, he would only barely reach the threshold of Nascent Soul. Caught off guard, the Master could definitely kill him.
These thoughts flashed through his mind, Zhiming told Yang Tianyou about the Lord of Blackblood City's plans in detail.
Just as Zhiming finished speaking, the Lord of Blackblood City spoke up.
The powerful sound spread out through layers of Law Power, making it clearly audible to the Blood Race on Blackblood City and the Human Race cultivators in the Fleet.
"Yang Tianyou, everyone says you are the Blade Venerable Great White, the most skilled in combat. Do you dare to fight me on the Military Formation?"
"Heh, we have the absolute advantage now, why should I fight you?" Yang Tianyou sneered.
"Hmph, what Blade Venerable Great White? You're nothing but a cowardly rat. I bet your past achievements were all just boasting..." The Lord of Blackblood City sneered.
Yang Tianyou was "enraged" and, ignoring everyone's advice, flew straight out of the Suppress Evil Boat.
Holding a long sword, he stepped to the front of the formation and declared loudly, "Then come on, let me show you the strength of the Blade Venerable Great White!"
Upon seeing this, the Lord of Blackblood City was overjoyed.
He hadn't expected that Yang Tianyou would be so easily provoked by his slightest provocation.
Abandoning the unbreakable support of the Fourth Tier Flying Boat, they actually intend to fight me head-on.
"As expected of a young man, so hot-tempered..." the Lord of Blackblood City muttered to himself, but a hearty smile appeared on his face. "Good, worthy of being the Blade Venerable Great White, you have spirit!"
As soon as he finished speaking, he leaped out of Blackblood City's defensive barrier and stood facing Yang Tianyou a hundred feet away.
Eight hundred feet away in the void, Yunhua, Yang Haoyu, and their five Bonded Spirit Beasts gathered, each with a different expression as they watched the two facing off before them.
Yang Haoyu covered his mouth and chuckled, saying, "The Lord of Blackblood City has dug a hole for himself."
"This person is so stupid, he's nowhere near as good as Brother Fengling!" Ruoqing her long, slender wings and said in a clear, crisp voice.
"Awoo..."
Fengling raised its head, its eyes filled with disdain, as if to say, how could the Lord of Blackblood City compare to it?
At this moment, Yunhua spoke up, looking at Fengling and the other beasts, and asked, "Don't you affecting your husband's combat effectiveness by not being by his side?"
"Don't worry, Mistress. After Master's cultivation breaks through, as long as the seven of us are within a thousand miles, it won't affect his combat effectiveness," Tongming said with a grin.
Upon hearing this, Yunhua was relieved. "That's good."
Before Blackblood City, the Lord of Blackblood City and Yang Tianyou faced off across the distance, their auras slowly gathering.
To the onlookers, the world seemed to be split into two parts: the left side was blood red and eerie, while the right side was platinum and magnificent.
The two forces clashed and struggled against each other, like two Giant Beasts locked in a battle, and neither could gain the upper hand.
Clang!!
The clear, melodious Blade Cry echoed across the land. Above the sky, boundless blade energy condensed and transformed into blade dragons that roared and howled silently. The intense and domineering Great White Blade Intent added the finishing touches to these blade dragons.
In an instant, these sword dragons seemed to come alive, their Dragon Roars shaking the heavens and sweeping up vast amounts of Heaven and Earth Spiritual Qi as they rushed toward the Lord of Blackblood City.
Seeing this, the latter remained calm and composed. He too had been through countless battles and had achieved his current success through constant fighting. In terms of killing ability, he believed he was second to none.
With his hands clasped together, endless blood suddenly gushed from the Lord of Blackblood City's body.
The blood spread out, forming a blood lake with a diameter of a hundred feet. The waves surged within, and in the blink of an eye, they condensed into blood-red figures clad in Battle Armor.
The sword dragon roared, and the blood shadow hissed as the two clashed fiercely, one on the left and one on the right.
The dragon claw reached out and tore the bloody shadow in front of it in two.
The blood-red shadow lunged forward, its corrosive blood eroding the dozens of feet long sword dragon into Void.
It was like two great armies clashing in the sky, a brutal scene, exquisite control of Law Power, profound understanding of the Dao of Heaven and Earth... The things contained in the battle dazzled the onlookers.
On the Flying Boat where the Purple Moon Army was located, Yang Xuanli, Yang Xuangang, and other younger members of the Yang Household looked at Yang Tianyou with shock and admiration in their eyes.
"So this is Nineteenth Uncle's strength?" This thought involuntarily arose in their minds at the same time.
To the younger generation of the Yang Household, Yang Tianyou was indeed kind and approachable, but his strength was only known through rumors, with at most some images remaining.
But none of these can compare to the life-or-death struggle one witnesses firsthand.
On the battlefield, the Lord of Blackblood City and Yang Tianyou first used their Divine Ability to fight each other from a distance.
Then, without prior arrangement, they all leaped into the air and began close-quarters combat.
They were all cultivators who practiced Dual Cultivation of Spell and Body.
The Lord of Blackblood City walks the Blood Sea Asura Dao, while Yang Tianyou walks the Dharma-Protecting War God Way.
The two sides clashed like two pieces of Spirit Gold colliding, the clanging and booming sounds never ceasing.
The Lord of Blackblood City possesses Golden Core Perfection cultivation level, and his physical strength is comparable to Third-Tier Supreme-Grade Spirit Gold.
Yang Tianyou, with his Middle Golden Core cultivation, relied on the Nine-Pattern Purple Golden Core to make his Law Power quality comparable to that of Golden Core Perfection Spell Cultivator, though his physical strength was much weaker.
However, his Melt Gold Body Refinement Divine Ability compensated for this deficiency.
Decades have passed, and Yang Tianyou's Metal Element Dao has reached the pinnacle of the Intent Realm.
His Melt Gold Body Refinement Divine Ability naturally led him to the perfect state of the Lower First Stage Heaven realm.
Using his Divine Ability, his physical strength was in no way inferior to that of the Lord of Blackblood City, and in fact, he was even superior in terms of toughness.
The two figures, one in crimson and the other in platinum, clashed fiercely in mid-air.
Yang Tianyou wielded the Twin Blades, unleashing a flurry of blazing blade light that struck the ground, each strike tearing the earth into a hundred-foot-long fissure.
The Law Treasure used by the Lord of Blackblood City was a blood-red longsword with a thin, delicate blade, like a cicada's wing, and its edges were covered with numerous intricate and exquisite patterns.
This is the Blackblood Sword, Third-Tier Supreme-Grade Life-Bound Law Treasure. Once injured by this sword, one will bleed profusely and it will be difficult to stop the bleeding.
It can also be invaded by blood poison, causing the body to gradually disintegrate and turn into dust. It is a magical Law Treasure with immense power, but also extremely vicious.
