The God of Sky & Earth-Chapter 672: Ambush!
Chapter 672: Ambush!
"Oh no!"
Fire Dragon Master's face changed drastically. The speed was too fast, and it was coming from behind.
The Fire Dragon Master's attention was completely focused on Xi Wuqing and he didn't expect that someone could escape his spying and sneak attack from behind.
"Boom!"
The handprint that was originally aimed at Xi Wuqing, the Fire Dragon Master quickly slapped behind him and rapidly retreated at the same time.
Swoosh...
But it was too late. The sword light erupted like a volcanic eruption, spreading a terrifying red aura that swept through everything. Along with the rotation of the stars, the constellations floated, as if dragging a long, colorful thunderbolt, shooting out with immense and unparalleled power.
"Roar..."
Within the sword light, there seemed to be a faint Red Dragon shadow, carrying the radiance of the stars. The ground cracked and fissures exploded wherever it passed, causing the void to tremble.
In that moment, Lifetaken Yama Xi Wuqing's expression also drastically changed.
The terrifying momentum made his soul tremble!
"嗤......"
The collision of palm prints and knife light caused a powerful wave of flames to burst out, creating a deafening sound as the two clashed, causing the mountains to crumble and the ground to shatter.
"Whoosh......"
A swirling energy ripple, resembling a powerful tornado, erupted from the clash between the knife light and the handprint of Fire Dragon Master, sweeping through the surrounding valley with tremendous force.
Giant rocks shattered, the earth shook, and everything was destroyed.
"Swish......"
The knife light pierced through the air, descending from the palm of Fire Dragon Master.
Fire Dragon Master's face turned pale, his eyes filled with shock and fear. The immense power made his heart tremble.
Everything was in chaos. If Fire Dragon Master were in his prime, he might have been able to escape from this frenzy. With the cultivation of the Sixth Grade of Yuan Emperor Realm, he would have been considered one of the strongest in the world.
But at this moment, Fire Dragon Master knew that he had also suffered severe injuries, even to his soul. Compared to Xi Wuqing , the damage he sustained was not much better.
As Fire Dragon Master swiftly retreated, a sense of panic surged within him.
"Swoosh..."
But he was still too slow. As the blades passed, three fingertips on Fire Dragon Master's palm - his index, middle, and ring fingers - weren't able to escape unscathed. They were all severed neatly, leaving only five intact fingers.
"Ah..."
The pain of having three fingertips severed caused even the mighty Fire Dragon Master to let out a cry of anguish. His vision blurred, and blood flowed profusely from his hand.
"Quick, run!"
A ghostly figure appeared by Xi Wuqing's side, swiftly pulling him along. Behind them, a crimson radiance engulfed them as their spiritual wings fluttered, propelling them into the air and away in an instant.
"You bastard, this isn't over between us!"
Everything happened too quickly, leaving Fire Dragon Master, who was already suffering from soul trauma, feeling somewhat dazed. After a moment, he regained his senses and erupted in anger, leaping into the air to give chase.
The crimson radiance scattered, and a figure soared out of the valley before crashing into the dense mountains, disappearing from sight.
"You can't escape, you bastard!"
The Fire Dragon Master became angry, and his voice echoed through the night sky.
...
There were towering mountains and hidden rock walls.
The moonlight was beautiful, shining through the dense vines and filling the cave.
Xi Wuqing stared at a young boy in front of him. He had a pale face and his eyes were filled with absolute astonishment. It was this boy who had just saved him.
The one who had just saved Xi Wuqing was none other than Su Yi, a boy.
At the final moment, Su Yi acted and, with the help of Ling Qianxue, activated the Supreme Chaotic Yuan Technique and unleashed the Roaring Dragon Emperor Slash.
And most importantly, Su Yi used another secret weapon he had, the Terrifying Star Blade.
With Su Yi's current level of strength, he couldn't fully unleash the power of the Terrifying Star Blade, but with Ling Qianxue's help, the power unleashed by the Terrifying Star Blade could be imagined.
Su Yi pondered, wondering if he should lend a helping hand. He knew that if he didn't, he would pass a test in his heart. However, he also knew that getting involved would be a risky move. Luckily, there was a perfect opportunity where he hoped to strike a powerful blow using all his strength.
With the Terrifying Star Blade, Ling Qianxue's assistance, the Roaring Dragon Emperor Slash, and the Supreme Chaotic Yuan Technique, Su Yi launched a surprise attack from behind. The Fire Dragon Master was already injured and overwhelmed, and three fingertips were severed.
Xi Wuqing, who was watching Su Yi, was surprised beyond belief. He remembered Su Yi's strength from before, but the power he displayed just now was on a whole new level, and it sent shivers down Xi Wuqing's spine.
Feeling the restrained aura emanating from Su Yi, Xi Wuqing knew that the young man had definitely come across a great opportunity during this period of time.
"Hush!"
Su Yi made a gesture for Xi Wuqing to be quiet, keeping his aura concealed. He didn't dare to make any big movements because the Fire Dragon Master was nearby and could easily detect him.
Xi Wuqing nodded, suppressing his shock, and quickly swallowed a few pills without taking time to breathe. He was afraid that his energy might leak out, attracting the attention of the Fire Dragon Master.
"This is a great expenditure of energy. I will have to enter a deep sleep for a long period of time to recover. Take care of yourself and please don't die," Ling Qianxue's voice echoed in Su Yi's mind and then disappeared.
Su Yi reluctantly acknowledged that Ling Qianxue had been inside him during this time, and he had become accustomed to her presence.
"Roarrrr..."
In the distance, a bird flew and a demon beast let out a roar, but then everything calmed down.
Su Yi and Xi Wuqing closed their eyes, sitting silently, not daring to make a sound.
Time passed slowly, and the sky gradually brightened. The night had passed.
"Phew..." f𝚛𝚎𝗲we𝗯𝗻ovel.𝐜om
Xi Wuqing opened his eyes, took a deep breath, and looked at Su Yi, saying, "Alright, it seems that the Fire Dragon Master has already gone far away."
"Are you safe?" Su Yi opened his eyes, and the tense expression on his face relaxed.
This night seemed peaceful, but Su Yi was far from calm. From yesterday until now, it felt like he had walked through the gates of death. If Fire Dragon Master found out, the consequences would be dire.
"It seems like I owe you a favor." Xi Wuqing looked at Su Yi , his eyes filled with curiosity and surprise.
"Don't mention it, I owe you a favor too." Su Yi shrugged his shoulders and stood up, stretching lazily. He appeared relaxed.
"What are you doing here?" Xi Wuqing asked.
"I've been here all along, never thought I would run into you."
Su Yi laughed bitterly. He had been minding his own business in the cave, never expecting to stumble upon a battle between two powerful Yuan Emperor Realm experts, one of whom was Xi Wuqing .
"You've been here all along?"
Xi Wuqing was astonished. He had thought Su Yi had sneaked in quietly, never imagining that Su Yi had been there all along in the valley.
Feeling the presence of Su Yi, Xi Wuqing became alert. He hadn't noticed Su Yi's presence before, which explained how he was able to sneak up on Fire Dragon Master.
