Soul Emperor Martial God

Chapter 1819: Chapter 1819: Mysterious Power

Everyone present, including Martial Artists from the various First-class forces, Martial Artists from the Eighteen Mansions, and even Ao Donglou, that veteran Peak of Supreme expert.

All of them wore looks of horror, and that horror, in the span of a few breaths, kept shifting, growing denser and denser until it reached the limit.

From the moment the corpses of the Five Great Academy Elders appeared, everyone had already shown expressions of shock.

These were elders of the Five Great Academy, and moreover all held the position of Chief.

Jin Tai, Ling Huqiu, Xia Houtong, Shangguan Die, Li Ya—looking across the Central Region, which one of them was not a renowned Supreme Expert?

To be able to serve as Chief elder of the Five Great Academy, and to have been famous in the Central Region for hundreds of years at the least, one could well imagine how strong their power was, how deep their Cultivation.

Especially Jin Tai, a veteran Peak of Supreme expert.

Putting aside those Legends who are like divine dragons that show the head but not the tail, in this entire Central Region, he could practically walk sideways.

Yet these five people had actually been killed without anyone knowing, and their identities even impersonated?

One could well imagine how terrifyingly strong the strength of these five fake Academy Elders was now.

And the horror on everyone’s faces, at the instant Xiao Yi made his move, directly spiked to the extreme.

This handsome young man, with an otherworldly bearing like a jade-like graceful noble son, this young Monster, had actually, with one move, suppressed five Peak of Supreme experts?

He merely stepped forward, and Sword Qi surged, stirring the winds and clouds.

Under the surging Sword Qi, his robes fluttered, his figure calm and ethereal.

The Sword Qi he casually unleashed already made it so that these five Peak of Supreme experts even found it hard to breathe.

”So...so strong.” Ao Donglou was the first to recover from his shock, staring at Xiao Yi in disbelief.

”Xiao Yixiao, your strength has actually grown so fierce already?”

”With Supreme Peak Cultivation, you easily crush, no, even ignore, ignore five veteran Peak of Supreme experts.”

”By this battle alone, Xiao Yixiao, you can rank as the number one person beneath the Legends of this age.”

”The strongest Sword Cultivator within the Supreme Realm—none but you.”

To make Ao Donglou, this Palace Master of Dongli Sword Palace, utter the four words ”strongest Sword Cultivator,” one could well imagine what status Xiao Yi held in his heart at this moment.

”Junior Brother Xiao Yi, you really are incredible.” At the side, Mo Youu looked at Xiao Yi in delighted surprise.

Xiao Yi lightly nodded, and smiled faintly.

His gaze returned to the five fake Academy Elders.

”Just now, you gave me two choices.”

”Now, I’ll also give you two choices.”

”Either you truthfully tell me which power you belong to; or you die, your body torn apart by Ten Thousand Swords.”

Xiao Yi’s tone was very calm.

These people had specifically killed the Five Great Academy Elders, impersonated their identities, forced him to seal his Cultivation and go with them—what was their intent?

In his mind, there was no impression or information about this faction.

When exactly he had formed a grudge with this mysterious force, he had to make that clear as well.

Otherwise, being targeted out of nowhere was definitely not a good thing.

”Alr...” ’Jin Tai’ clenched his teeth and squeezed out a word.

His Peak of Supreme limit strength had actually reached the point where even speaking before Xiao Yi became difficult.

Xiao Yi frowned slightly and dispersed a portion of his Sword Qi.

The strained look on ’Jin Tai’s’ face eased slightly, and his mouth slowly opened.

”We are...”

”Do it.”

’Jin Tai’s’ words suddenly shifted, and he bellowed.

Sou... sou... sou...

Three figures in succession suddenly leaped out of thin air, swords in hand, stabbing forth at extreme speed.

Chirp...

From the sky above came a sharp screech.

A figure dove down.

The diving momentum was incomparably fierce, and also fast to the extreme.

It was a figure, likewise holding a sword, but his sword momentum was like a great eagle diving, pouncing down to seize a rabbit.

It seemed to be only a mirage, flashing past in a single sweep.

”What speed, be careful.” Ao Donglou’s expression changed.

These three people, plus the one charging down from the sky, four in total, actually in an instant sealed off all of Xiao Yi’s possible paths of retreat.

Of the three who arrived first, one wielded a sword as swift as the wind, his sword’s assault accompanied by howling Kuang Feng.

Another’s sword bore surging water ripples, his thrust like a raging river pouring forth with the sword.

The third held a Fire Sword, the speed of the flames like a Meteor, and on the tip of the sword, Molten Lava actually boiled, wild to the extreme.

In practically an instant, three shocking sword momentums were already striking at all of Xiao Yi’s vital points.

At that very instant, Xiao Yi narrowed his eyes, and a strand of Sword Qi condensed at his fingertip.

Just then.

Sou... sou...

Yet another two terrifying auras suddenly appeared, rushing over at high speed.

Another two Peak of Supreme?

Clang... clang...

The two terrifying auras appeared quickly and arrived just as fast.

One of them, his sword like a Wind Shock Sword, flashed past in a streak.

With that one drawn sword, he easily blocked the attacking Wind Sword and water sword.

As for the other, flames of wild ferocity gathered in his hand, and he actually used his fleshly palm to receive that Fire Sword as swift as a Meteor Liuu Xing.

At this moment, the one coming with the momentum of an eagle hunting a rabbit stabbed straight at Xiao Yi’s throat.

Xiao Yi flicked his fingertip, easily clamping this sword that had reached the limit of speed.

Xiao Yi smiled faintly and glanced at the two who had suddenly appeared in front of him as his shields. ”Elder Jingfeng, Elder Tianchi.”

Indeed, those who had suddenly appeared and blocked the three attackers for Xiao Yi were precisely Elder Jingfeng of Black Cloud Academy, with his Wind Shock Sword, and Elder Tianchi, the Sky Red Hand.

”Good kid.” Elder Jingfeng looked at Xiao Yi and laughed.

”To catch with a flick of your fingers the full-force sword of a Peak of Supreme expert who had been storing power—tut tut, your strength now is strong enough indeed.”

”Not bad.” Xiao Yi smiled faintly.

Right at this moment.

Sou...

Almost at the very instant Xiao Yi was speaking, a figure broke out from underground beneath his feet.

The figure was slightly thin, but his speed had reached the extreme, a dagger in hand, the angle of attack also twisted to the extreme.

Black energy surged on the dagger, clearly laced with deadly poison.

The dagger stabbed straight for Xiao Yi’s throat.

Xiao Yi let out a cold laugh. He didn’t even need to raise his other hand; the hand that was clamping the sky-breaking sword of the charging attacker suddenly twisted.

”Scram.” Xiao Yi shouted coldly.

The man who had come breaking through the sky, along with his sword, was directly flung away.

With that motion, Xiao Yi still had time to reach out and grab the wrist of the one who had broken out from the ground with dagger in hand.

Xiao Yi’s palm exerted a bit of force, and the attacker’s dagger was forcibly twisted aside.

”Impossible, how can his reaction be this fast?” The eyes of the dagger-wielding man narrowed sharply.

At this moment, Xiao Yi also narrowed his eyes. ”You’re Assassins, aren’t you?”

He couldn’t have misseen it—the way that dagger-wielder had suddenly broken out from underground, his movements and methods clearly belonged to an Assassin.

If it hadn’t been him, Xiao Yi, but someone else in his place, even someone as strong as Ao Donglou probably wouldn’t have been able to dodge that dagger.

This is what an Assassin is capable of—storing power and then taking an enemy’s life in a single instant.

”Retreat.” ’Jin Tai’ suddenly shouted.

The three who had been blocked by Elder Tianchi and Elder Jingfeng retreated at once.

And the one whose wrist Xiao Yi held forcibly snapped his own wrist, pulling free and hastily withdrawing.

Seeing this, Xiao Yi’s brows furrowed even tighter.

”Trying to run?”

”Suppress.”

In an instant, Sword Qi surged, sealing the eight directions.
