Comprehension in Battle, a Mutated Spirit Ability, a Single-Sword Kill!

Chu Ye and Qian Renxue's battle rhythm was interrupted, and that meant Li Yuanba now had a chance to counterattack.

"You actually cut off one of my arms. You! I'll make you wish you were dead!"

Li Yuanba flew into a complete rage, his expression twisting. "Fifth Spirit Ability, Leopard Bite!!"

"Roar!!"

A huge flaming leopard head came shrouding over at tremendous speed. This was actually a locking-type spirit ability.

When fighting above one's level against a Spirit Emperor dozens of ranks higher, the only easy way to win was to end it quickly. From the very start, one had to go all out and kill the opponent before they could release their powerful spirit abilities.

A Spirit Emperor had many spirit abilities; the longer it dragged on, the higher the age of the later spirit abilities, and the stronger their power.

And Li Yuanba's Fifth Spirit Ability had already reached the Seven-thousand-year level!

"Xue'er, hide behind me!"

At that moment, Chu Ye stood in front of Qian Renxue without the slightest hesitation.

But Qian Renxue also stood beside Chu Ye without the slightest hesitation, shoulder to shoulder with him.

"Xue'er, you..."

"Chu Ye, I want to be with you."

"I understand."

Chu Ye's eyes flickered slightly. He nodded, then released all the Soul Power he could mobilize at the same time as Qian Renxue, going all out to withstand Li Yuanba's blow.

Bang! Boom, boom, boom!

"Ahhh!" Chu Ye roared. His Soul Power began draining away rapidly as he blocked it, and soon he was on the verge of his limit.

Even though Chu Ye and Qian Renxue had blocked with all their might, in the end they still could not withstand it. Both of them were sent staggering back by that force at the same time.

"Xue'er."

Seeing Qian Renxue's pale face beside him, and the blood trickling from the corner of her mouth, Chu Ye's expression turned utterly ice-cold.

"You! Deserve to die!"

Never had his emotions burned with such fury as they did now. Killing intent had completely seized his mind as he stared fixedly at Li Yuanba.

"Hmph! You took my Fifth Spirit Ability and still didn't die. You really are impressive! Unfortunately, your Soul Power and stamina must already be close to their limits, right? So what if you blocked my Fifth Spirit Ability?"

"Can you block my Sixth Spirit Ability? Hahahaha!" Li Yuanba laughed wildly.

"Xue'er, stay here. Leave the rest to me."

Chu Ye slowly stood up and walked forward step by step. Once again, he blocked Qian Renxue behind him.

"Go ahead and try. See whether I can block it!" Every word from Chu Ye was filled with dense killing intent.

"You don't know whether to live or die! I'd like to see how you protect that little girl behind you!"

"Sixth Spirit Ability, Leopard Flame Annihilation!"

The black Ten Thousand Year Spirit Ring came shrouding down like the shadow of death. The terrifying flames seemed to carry the power to destroy everything, and naturally were not something a mere Soul Grandmaster could withstand.

Yet there was not a trace of fear in Chu Ye's eyes. His attention was not even on Li Yuanba's spirit ability, but on the sky behind him, where day and night were changing places.

The pitch-black night sky was growing bright. Night was about to vanish, and day was about to arrive.

Dawn had come.

And dawn and dusk were precisely when Chu Ye was at his strongest. He could borrow the power of both the sun and the night at the same time to strengthen himself.

"It's over, brat!!"

As Li Yuanba roared, the terrifying power of his Sixth Spirit Ability had already come crashing in.

"Sigh, although this Li Yuanba is only level 65, he is stronger than the vast majority of Spirit Emperors. On top of that, he even has a Thousand-Year Spirit Bone. His strength could be called that of a peak Spirit Emperor. Xiao Ye and the young mistress are still too hard-pressed to match him after all!"

Chrysanthemum Douluo shook his head and sighed inwardly. He could only make a move.

But just as Chrysanthemum Douluo was about to act, he suddenly saw a fiery-red torso bone emerge behind Chu Ye, and that spirit bone was releasing power to protect him.

"Well now, this kid was still hiding a trump card! When did he get a spirit bone?"

Chrysanthemum Douluo was incomparably pleasantly surprised.

"Trigger, my Phoenix Bone!"

"Rebirth from Flames!"

Bang! Boom, boom, boom!

"Ahhhhh!!"

The instant Li Yuanba's Sixth Spirit Ability struck Chu Ye in full, his body seemed to be scorched by raging fire, the pain unbearable.

But two seconds later, the warm flames of the phoenix surrounded him, and his Soul Power, injuries, and stamina all rapidly recovered.

Chu Ye had triggered the passive skill of the Phoenix Torso Bone, Rebirth from Flames. When he suffered a fatal blow, it blocked that fatal blow and restored fifty percent of all his conditions.

"Hahaha, genius? So what if you're a genius? If you can't grow up, what use is that? You still died young!"

Looking at the area ahead covered in flame energy, Li Yuanba laughed excitedly. In his view, Chu Ye and Qian Renxue were already dead.

Just then, Chu Ye's cold voice suddenly rang out from within the flame energy. "You've used up all your moves, haven't you? Then it's my turn."

"How is that possible? How can you still be alive!" Li Yuanba could no longer laugh. He could not believe it, feeling as if his entire worldview was about to collapse.

The flame energy gradually vanished, and Chu Ye's unyielding figure slowly appeared. By the time Li Yuanba clearly saw Chu Ye's silhouette, Chu Ye had already condensed his First Spirit Ability once more.

"Divine Demon Twin Slashes!"

At that moment, two kinds of energy, light and darkness, radiated from Chu Ye's Sword of Gods and Demons at the same time.

In this battle between life and death, under Chu Ye's extreme fury and killing intent, he gained a deeper understanding of the Sword of Gods and Demons martial soul in that instant, and because of it, comprehended a new move.

It was not a Self-Created Soul Skill, but a Mutated Spirit Ability!

"Li Yuanba, your time to die has come!!"

"Light Dark Fusion Slash!!"

An energy Sword Qi blade, light on one side and dark on the other, carried the stacked power of both Light Slash and Dark Slash as it blasted out in an instant.

Pfft!!

"Ahhhhh!!"

Li Yuanba's final scream rang out. His body was cut apart in an instant, split in two!

"You, you..."

Being cut apart at the waist would not actually kill someone immediately. Consciousness still remained in the upper body, and Li Yuanba was not completely dead yet. His eyes bulged wide as he stared in utter terror at Chu Ye, who was walking toward him step by step.

"I told you. The one who would die could only be you."

Chu Ye carried the Sword of Gods and Demons and came before Li Yuanba, who had only his upper body left. He looked down at the Spirit Emperor on the ground, who was about to die and was staring at him in utter fear.

Expressionless, utterly emotionless, he brought his sword down and severed Li Yuanba's head.

Chu Ye's heart seemed utterly undisturbed at that moment, abnormally calm.

He slowly picked up the spirit bone that had fallen after he killed Li Yuanba. "A Thousand-Year Spirit Bone. I wonder how many thousand years it is."

Chu Ye sized it up with one glance, then put it away. Afterward, he immediately went to Qian Renxue's side and helped her up.

"Xue'er, are you all right?"

"I'm fine. My Soul Power consumption was just too great, so I'm a little weak right now. Chu Ye, what was that move just now? I've never seen it before!" Qian Renxue asked.

"It was my first time using it too. I just comprehended it in battle." Chu Ye smiled wearily.

"You really are a monster. You actually managed to comprehend a new move in battle."
