Chapter 1141: Fierce Duel Between Man and Woman
Chapter 1141: Fierce Duel Between Man and Woman
Ye Guan shook his head with a faint smile.
Instead of devouring the Supreme Law Heart, he left the tiny pagoda. There was still one more thing he needed—the Divine Heart of the Otherworld God.
Ye Guan looked around before soaring away on his sword and vanishing into the horizon.
About an hour later, he arrived in a strange region. The temperature in this region was shockingly low, and as he stepped into it, he felt as if he had entered an icy abyss.
Proceeding farther, he noticed a black banner standing tall in the distance. Dark mists swirled around it, and a dark red heart was floating beneath the banner.
The Divine Heart of the Otherworld God!
Ye Guan disappeared into thin air.
When he reappeared, he was already beneath the banner. But suddenly, the space around him twisted violently. Terrifying and mysterious forces descended like towering mountains, pressing down on him.
Just then, a figure shot toward him from his right—it was Meng Zhao!
Under the oppressive power of the mysterious forces, Ye Guan found himself unable to move. Just as he summoned his sword intent, Meng Zhao crashed into him.
Bang!
Ye Guan was sent flying away.
A dark void manifested behind him and eerie streams of what looked like blood rushed out of it, becoming a net that trapped him. With a will on his end, the Order Sword flew out, slashing through the net.
Schwing!
The sword light tore through the net, but before Ye Guan could escape, a pillar of flames descended from above, slamming into him.
Boom!
Once again, Ye Guan was sent flying.
As he steadied himself, Meng Zhao appeared above him, wielding a massive black saber. He had transformed into his original form, and he swung the weapon down at Ye Guan with devastating force.
Crash!
The collision shattered a burst of sword light, sending Ye Guan flying yet again.
Meng Zhao prepared to pursue, but a sword shot toward him out of nowhere.
Meng Zhao raised his saber to defend himself.
Clang!
The impact forced Meng Zhao to retreat nearly a hundred meters. His expression shifted as he looked at Ye Guan, who had retreated a thousand meters away.
A black seal hovered above Ye Guan's head, and it was emanating mysterious black beams that enveloped him.
Within the light, Ye Guan summoned his Order Sword.
Boom!
The glowing barrier before him cracked, but before he could shatter it completely with another swing, the barrier broke. The fragments transformed into tiny runes that turned into a rope that wrapped around him.
Ye Guan unleashed his sword intent, only to find that the rope was resisting his Order Sword Intent.
Swoosh!
Meng Zhao appeared overhead, raising his massive saber for another attack.
Ye Guan narrowed his eyes and unleashed his Invincible Sword Intent alongside his Order Sword Intent.
Rumble!
The rope around him disintegrated.
Ye Guan soared into the air as a streak of sword light.
Boom!
Ye Guan was blasted backward once more.
He stabilized himself quickly, but he suddenly found himself in a mysterious, special spacetime. It seemed to be a bizarre prison with enormous pillars of lightning surrounding him.
The ancient lamp reappeared in front of him, and its flames burned fiercely.
Ye Guan closed his eyes.
The Order Sword vibrated intensely as two sword intents rushed out of him like a tidal wave.
Just then, the ancient lamp transformed into a ghostly blue pillar of flame that threatened to engulf Ye Guan.
Ye Guan's eyes snapped open, and he thrust his sword forward.
A strike to decide life and death!
Ye Guan finally treated the hidden attacker as an equal.
The Order Sword's strength surged drastically.
Boom!
A burst of sword light erupted from Ye Guan's location, shattering the lightning pillars nearby. Waves of fire and sword light rippled outward like relentless tidal waves.
After what felt like an eternity, Ye Guan finally found himself outside.
Ye Guan stood quietly with his sword in hand as both sword intents swirled around him.
A lady clad in a pale blue robe was standing not far away from him.
The lady was none other than Zuo Xi, and she was holding an ancient lamp in her left hand.
Zuo Xi stared calmly at Ye Guan.
Swoosh!
Meng Zhao suddenly appeared behind Ye Guan. He glared at Ye Guan with his massive saber in hand.
Ye Guan glanced at Zuo Xi and smiled. "Are you from the Divine Law Academy?"
Zuo Xi nodded. "Yes."
Ye Guan looked at the lamp in her hand. "What kind of divine artifact is that?"
"The Nanming Li Fire Lamp. It's ranked second among the Ten Great Artifacts," Zuo Xi replied. Then, she asked, "Why are you not using that sword of yours?"
Ye Guan knew that she was referring to the Qingxuan Sword.
"Using that sword too often can be addictive, hahaha," said Ye Guan with a chuckle. He was still cautious about relying too much on the Qingxuan Sword, as it was just too strong.
Using it excessively would surely foster dependence, which would affect his Sword Dao.
Reflecting on the recent battle, Ye Guan identified areas for improvement despite suffering several setbacks. It would have been impossible if he had relied on the Qingxuan Sword.
"Come out now!" Ye Guan exclaimed.
"Haha!"
A hundred meters to the right, a group of mysterious figures in black robes appeared out of nowhere. There were over a dozen of them, and they were all clad in black robes with masks covering their faces.
Both Zuo Xi and Meng Zhao showed traces of fear in their eyes upon seeing the group.
Ye Guan's face darkened. They were dangerous.
Noticing Zuo Xi's wary demeanor, Ye Guan frowned.
The leader of the black-robed figures stared at Ye Guan.
"Forget it; I surrender," said Ye Guan. He opened his palm, and the Supreme Law Heart flew toward Meng Zhao.
