The Cloud Azure Sword is Demigod- level sword.
As soon as the sword was drawn, Commander Yang frowned slightly. "A weapon of Demigod level... Just who are you?"
In the Divine Mystic Fire Sect, only generals can wield swords of Demigod level.
Weapons of this caliber are rare to begin with, and even those at the Ancestor Realm cannot unleash the full power of such weapons.
Ye Qiubai did not answer, and slashed the Cloud Azure Sword in his hand towards Commander Yang!
At the same time, wisps of flame swirled around the slash, causing even fire and poison to give way in its path.
Feeling the power of the strike, Commander Yang sneered, "No wonder you dared to block me alone with your Mid-Stage Ancestor Realm strength. So you wanted to rely on weapons to achieve cross-realm warfare?"
"But isn't that a bit too naive..."
No sooner had these words been spoken than...
The fiery slash swiftly pierced through Commander Yang's body, but no blood spurted out... Instead, Commander Yang's body transformed into a ball of flame, erupting in place before dissipating.
This is not an afterimage left by speed, but simply a clone constructed of flames!
Ye Qiubai's pupils contracted slightly. He had no time to think. His instinctive sense of the killing intent in battle made Ye Qiubai leap up into the air!
Then he flipped headfirst, thrusting his Cloud Azure Sword downwards!
Sizzle sizzle sizzle!
As a series of piercing sounds resounded throughout the arena, Commander Yang appeared beneath the sword. He clenched his fist and slammed it into the spot where Ye Qiubai had just stood. With his other hand, he bypassed the fist and transformed it into a palm, using his palm, which was covered in flames, to catch Ye Qiubai's sword!
At the same time, the old man straddled the ground with his knees bent, his overall posture looking quite strange, but he effectively used the solidity of the ground to help Commander Yang block the impact of Ye Qiubai's sword.
The ground around Commander Yang's feet cracked open, and pieces of gravel flew and scattered around him!
"Hmph, looks like he's not all show and no substance." Commander Yang sneered, his hand that had been blocking Cloud Azure Sword suddenly grabbing the tip and twisting it sharply!
The powerful force caused the Cloud Azure Sword to twist as well, and the arm twisted in the opposite direction as well.
Ye Qiubai's eyes widened, and he pushed off in mid-air, causing his body to spin in the direction the Cloud Azure Sword was twisting.
At the same time, a surging azure flame swept upwards along the Cloud Azure Sword, engulfing Ye Qiubai...
The rapidly spinning sword and Ye Qiubai's body transformed the surging blue flames into a fiery whirlwind...
"It's time to end this."
Commander Yang revealed a cold smile, and with his other hand, he threw a punch.
As Commander Yang released his grip on the Cloud Azure Sword, the whirlwind of azure fire flew backwards into the air, and his hand, which had been raised high, suddenly fell back down.
At this moment, the Azure Flame Whirlwind began to spin even faster in the opposite direction, crashing to the ground like a drill!
As if an earthquake had struck, layers of the ground began to crack!
From the cracked earth, streams of molten lava gushed out uncontrollably.
Soon, the spot where Ye Qiubai crashed was covered by molten lava, and the area was filled with dense fire poison.
Huo Shuyun and the Black Fire Branch looked on with worry as they watched this scene.
Meanwhile, the disciples of the other two factions seized the opportunity to launch an even fiercer offensive.
"What kind of time is this to be concerned about other things?"
In an instant, more than twenty people from the two factions, whose cultivation levels were even higher than Huo Shuyun's, suppressed Huo Shuyun and her group to the point of suffering.
Commander Lin and Commander Ren's swords clashed violently, their faces close together. Commander Lin grinned and said, "Looks like your Black Fire Branch won't be able to get the Divine Fire Stone this time either. We should thank you for collecting so much; in the end, it's all benefited us."
Commander Ren, however, remained expressionless and asked in return, "Is that so?"
Um?
Commander Lin frowned slightly.
On the other side, Commander Yang changed drastically.
Around all of them.
Strands of Sword Qi surged forth!
The omnipresent Sword Dao Law transformed into countless three-foot-long green blades, condensing in the air.
Thousands upon thousands of swords were aimed at the disciples of the two factions.
"Retreat!" Commander Yang roared ferociously, about to run in front of the disciples of the two factions to block the thousands of swords for them.
A white-clad man, still wreathed in blue flames, stood before him, Sword Peak in hand, and slashed out.
Commander Yang was forced to stop, and his hands, covered in blue flames, caught the sword.
"How is this possible?!" Commander Yang gritted his teeth, staring incredulously at Ye Qiubai's face. The last wisp of blue flame remaining on Ye Qiubai's body merged into Ye Qiubai's body at that moment.
This can only be achieved when Law of Fire is far more profound than that of Commander Yang, and by more than one level.
Commander Yang naturally understood, which is why he was so shocked.
Ye Qiubai did not answer.
With a slight thought, tens of thousands of swords emitted sharp sword cries, flying towards the disciples of the two factions like a rain of pear blossoms!
In an instant, screams of agony echoed from the disciples of both factions.
Swords pierced their feet and legs, pinning them to the spot.
Sword Qi surged through their limbs, shattering their bones!
Commander Yang and Commander Lin watched this scene with eyes wide with rage.
Commander Ren's lips curled into a slight smile.
Huo Shuyun and the other members of the Black Fire Branch cheered loudly.
Ye Qiubai said calmly, "Take the Divine Fire Stone back with you, just in case something unexpected happens."
Upon hearing this, Huo Shuyun nodded quickly and led the group away from there.
They understood that with their current strength, staying here would only cause trouble for Senior Ye and Commander Ren.
After they all left...
Commander Yang stared at Ye Qiubai with a grim expression and said, "You're not from Divine Mystic Island. In terms of swordsmanship alone, no one on the entire Divine Mystic Island is your match."
He could clearly sense that Ye Qiubai's Sword Intent already contained a trace of the Sword Origin.
His Law of Fire surpasses his own, and he has likely already entered the Origin Realm.
However, such a talent at the Mid-Stage Ancestor Realm is absolutely not a freak within the Divine Mystic Island or the Divine Mystic Fire Sect.
"Why would someone like you choose to join the weakest Black Fire Branch? Come to my Azure Fire Branch, and I guarantee you abundant resources and much more!"
Ye Qiubai remained silent, but expressed his thoughts through his actions.
He took a dozen steps back, and the Cloud Azure Sword in his hand suddenly rose into the air!
at the same time.
The Geng Metal Sword Case crashed into the ground with a thud. With a clap of his hands, the sword box opened, and the sword inside slashed wildly towards Commander Yang!
