Legend of Swordsman

Upon entering the Asura Field, they encountered several fierce battles. Taking advantage of the chaos, they frantically made their way towards the border.

When they reached the border, they found themselves in the middle of a chaotic battle involving hundreds of people. It provided the perfect opportunity to escape the Asura Field amidst the confusion.

At the same time, the three True Immortals of Blood Demon Hall had received an order from the Blood River Ancestor, directing them to head toward the source of the Blood River. This left them no time to bother with the trial takers in the area.

However, as luck would have it, Jian Wushuang was noticed by the True Immortal Ji Ye.

Feeling Ji Ye’s aura descend upon them, Jian Wushuang sighed. It seemed inevitable that they would cross paths.

Buzz!

A sudden, powerful aura appeared and instantly crushed the entire battlefield.

The trial takers, still in their Great Vehicle stage, were instantly killed without a single survivor, leaving only Jian Wushuang and his group standing at the edge.

It was at this moment that Ziyu Immortal finally woke up from her shock.

“We’ve been exposed!” True Immortal Wuhou’s heart sank.

“It’s Ji Ye, an Eight-Step True Immortal!” Elder Tianchan’s expression changed drastically.

“An Eight-Step True Immortal!” True Lord Xueyang gasped.

The other two Four-Step True Immortals, along with Elder Tianchan’s disciple, also turned pale.

It was over.

There was no doubt about it—this time, they were truly in trouble.

Among them, some had powerful backgrounds, and others had strong cultivation and deep foundations. Against ordinary Six-Step or even Seven-Step True Immortals, they wouldn’t be afraid.

But they had run into an Eight-Step True Immortal.

There was no hope of resisting—only escape.

“Run!”

Everyone was left with one thought—escape as quickly as possible.

They needed to run as far as they could.

Resisting was tantamount to courting death.

Swoosh!

The first to move was Elder Tianchan’s disciple.

He was only in the Great Vehicle stage, surrounded by others of the same stage, and could easily blend in.

Besides, he was just a minor figure, unlikely to draw any attention.

It was a reasonable thought, but unfortunately, he acted too hastily.

It wasn’t that his reaction was quick; it was that he was overly clever, thinking that running earlier would give him a better chance to escape.

However, he hadn’t considered why the other Great Vehicle stage cultivators had died so quickly just moments before.

Ji Ye, as a True Immortal, didn’t even need to lift a finger to kill a Great Vehicle stage cultivator. The mere shockwaves of his immortal power were enough to shred them to pieces in an instant.

The only reason this disciple had survived earlier was because of Ziyu Immortal’s protection.

But now that he had moved beyond the range of her protection, he was instantly caught in the invisible shockwave of immortal power, torn apart in midair. His body didn’t even remain intact; it was reduced to a mist of blood.

The Elder Tian Can didn’t have time to grieve. He flipped his hand, pulling out the black gourd and shouted angrily, “Scatter and flee!”

As he finished, he yanked out the cork.

Boom!

Terrifying black flames erupted, instantly engulfing the surrounding area for a thousand miles.

As long as they could escape the range, each had a treasure capable of concealing their presence. Once outside, they’d be able to avoid Ji Ye True Immortal’s pursuit.

In this critical moment, the elder’s mind remained sharp.

Previously, they hadn’t fled immediately because the first to run would be the first to be hunted down.

His foolish disciple, who had always stayed close by, never experienced being chased and didn’t understand this. Now he was dead, and it was a pointless death.

The black flames spread, instantly consuming the nearby space.

The chaotic space caused everyone to begin scattering.

Before Ziyu Immortal escaped, she didn’t forget to grab Jian Wushuang, but as for the two Four-Step True Immortals, she was genuinely powerless to help them. Bringing a Universe Master along didn’t weigh on her too much, as it wouldn’t consume much of her strength.

“Stay close to me. As long as we make it out of this thousand-mile range, we’ll have a chance to survive!”

Jian Wushuang felt a warmth in his heart. He hadn’t expected Ziyu Immortal to still be willing to bring him, a mere Universe Master, along to escape at a time like this. He immediately followed her.

As for the others, he merely glanced at them, but he kept his Thought power locked on True Lord Xue Yang.

If True Lord Xue Yang couldn’t escape, this whole trip would be for nothing, so he couldn’t let him die.

The others, however, were not his concern.

Wu Hou True Immortal, with his solid background from a prestigious family, wasn’t doing too badly either. When he fled, a shield appeared under his feet, instantly accelerating his speed beyond that of even the Seven-Step True Immortals.

Even Ji Ye True Immortal would have a hard time catching up to him.

Elder Tian Can wasn’t far behind either. Using some unknown runes, he managed to enter a dimensional shield, slipping through the cracks of space to escape.

True Lord Xue Yang was even more outrageous. He directly activated the supreme treasure within his body, transforming into a streak of blood-red light. Those with experience could instantly recognize it as the Blood Shield, and his speed became the fastest among them.

But no matter how fast they fled, they were all awaiting judgment.

If Ji Ye True Immortal seriously chased after anyone, the one being pursued would almost certainly die.

“Each of them has a treasure? It seems their intentions are far from simple!” Ji Ye True Immortal’s lips curled into a twisted smile. He didn’t chase anyone but simply watched the escaping figures coldly.

After briefly scanning them, he recognized who they were.

After all, the powerful figures from Tian Tan City were mostly well-known.

“Ziyu, Tian Can, Wu Hou?”

He had identified the three strongest True Immortals.

When he spotted Wu Hou True Immortal, his brow twitched. He had just been drinking with Wu Doutu, and now he encountered a member of his clan.

Out of respect for him, Ji Ye True Immortal decided to spare Wu Hou True Immortal’s life. But trespassing into the Blood River Domain of the Shura Realm still called for some punishment.

“A Universe Master?”

Yet Wu Hou wasn’t the one who surprised him the most. What truly caught his attention was True Lord Xue Yang.

Because Xue Yang had always kept a low profile, very few people knew his appearance, but his treasure was anything but low-key.

A Universe Master with a speed comparable to an Eight-Step True Immortal?

Ji Ye felt a thrill in his heart and thought to himself, “This guy must be carrying a supreme treasure. My luck is really good. The Patriarch just rewarded me with a supreme treasure, and now I encounter another Universe Master with a treasure of his own. But for a Universe Master to carry such a treasure and use it so well, his background must be extraordinary!”

Of course, he didn’t plan to hold back. Even if he killed him, it wouldn’t matter.

This was, after all, the domain of the Twin-Faced God. His superior was the Blood River Patriarch, one of the ten True Immortals under the Twin-Faced Buddha.

If anything went wrong, the Patriarch would shield him, and even the Twin-Faced Buddha would step in if needed.

This was the Twin-Faced God’s domain.

No matter how strong their background, killing them was nothing to worry about.

“None of you will leave.”

Ji Ye muttered darkly.

“Ji Ye Origin Source!”

Hum!

The world instantly dimmed.

The bright sky plunged into darkness.

This was no ordinary darkness; even Thought power began to weaken.

Ji Ye not only obscured their sight but also their Thought power.

The fleeing group suddenly became blind.

They couldn’t even figure out which direction to flee.

At that moment, Ji Ye True Immortal made his move, starting with the two slowest Four-Step True Immortals.

“Two weaklings, no need to leave them alive!”

Killing intent surged in Ji Ye’s eyes. Darkness enveloped the two Four-Step True Immortals, and within a single breath, they were swallowed by the night. Their life force completely vanished in the next moment, leaving behind only two storage rings.
