The night was inky, pressing down heavily.
A sudden surge of killing intent enveloped Li Dixian and Qian Renxue.
Their reactions were as swift as lightning.
Almost the moment they sensed the killing intent, they had already dismounted.
Li Dixian's Soul Power surged, and he infused his palms with soft strength, pressing them against the Wind Chasing Colts.
The immense force propelled the two Wind Chasing Colts dozens of meters away.
This place was desolate.
There was no sign of human habitation for dozens of miles.
The lights of the inn were even more distant and unreachable.
If their mounts were injured in the melee, it would inevitably delay their journey.
After all this was done.
The intense killing intent had already spread like a tangible presence, and even the night wind passing through the forest seemed to carry a hint of blood.
Rustle—
The dense forest on both sides of the narrow official road swayed.
It was as if a large group of people were about to break out of the woods.
Qian Renxue and Li Dixian stood back to back, their cold gazes locking onto their respective directions.
Whoosh—
A sharp whooshing sound tore through the silence.
From the forests on both sides.
More than a dozen figures dressed in night clothes merged with the darkness and darted out.
There were no words, only chilling killing intent.
For Qian Renxue.
Only a few people were dispatched to engage her in battle.
However, the more than a dozen dark figures rushing towards Li Dixian were accompanied by overwhelming killing intent, charging forward with explosive force!
Their objective was crystal clear—to kill Li Dixian!
Li Dixian took a step forward.
A purple Soul Ring rose from beneath his feet.
"First Spirit Ability - Green Edge Severance!"
A clear sword light suddenly cut through the night.
One of the men in black didn't even have time to release his Soul Ring.
His head had already been severed by this lightning-fast sword strike.
Scalding blood splattered everywhere, blooming into a tragic and beautiful flower in the dark night.
The sharpness and speed of this sword strike clearly far exceeded the expectations of the men in black.
Their charging momentum paused.
Immediately after, Soul Rings of various colors erupted violently.
In an instant!
The colorful Soul Ring lights intertwined!
A majestic wave of Soul Power surged, shaking the surrounding trees fiercely!
Excluding the person who was instantly killed.
Of the remaining sixteen men in black, six were Spirit Kings above level fifty, and ten were Spirit Kings above level forty.
The lights of various Soul Rings shone brightly!
Spirit Abilitys, like a torrential downpour, engulfed Li Dixian!
Li Dixian's second purple Soul Ring lit up!
Sword qi soared from his Great Vertebrae Sword Bone!
Three Azure Lotus Swords with distinct attributes floated behind him!
One was like starlight condensed; one flowed with dual ice and fire colors; and one seemed to be formed by azure wind, howling erratically!
After comprehending the Sword Intent of Wind!
His twelve-section Great Vertebrae Sword Bone gained another type of sharpness!
"Second Spirit Ability - Three Swords' Splendor!"
"Yaoguang!"
"Chi Shuang!"
"Wind Without Form!"
"Three Swords out!"
Li Dixian's eyes were like blades, and his white robe suddenly trembled.
The three Azure Lotus Swords, carrying the momentum of wind and thunder, bravely met the surging torrent of Spirit Abilitys.
Rumble—!
Starlight flickered, ice and fire churned, and fierce gales roared!
Violent energy and various Soul Powers clashed, tore, and annihilated each other wildly!
The earth shook as if a dragon had overturned, and spiderweb-like cracks spread in all directions!
The surrounding bushes, trees, and broken stones were first torn apart by the violent Spirit Abilitys, then ground into dust by the power of ice and fire, and finally swept up by the strong winds, turning into a sky full of dust and mist!
Amidst the swirling dust.
Li Dixian's three Azure Lotus Swords were unparalleled in sharpness, instantly shattering the Spirit Abilitys of several Spirit Kings, and the three attribute sword intents crisscrossed, cutting them in half at the waist.
However.
The six Spirit Kings' ten-thousand-year black Soul Rings emitted a terrifying aura that made one's heart palpitate.
Their auras were connected, making them difficult to shake even slightly.
There were too many opponents.
Otherwise, even if they were Spirit Kings, Li Dixian would dare to kill them.
One would surely die!
Two could be killed!
With three, the advantage was mine!
But now there were six Spirit Kings!
Furthermore, they had cultivated some kind of secret technique of the same origin, their auras intertwined, making them as solid as a rock!
Li Dixian's face gradually turned pale.
Activating Soul Bones also consumed a vast amount of Soul Power.
With all three swords unleashed and maintained for so long, his Soul Power was nearing depletion.
Stomping his foot fiercely.
Li Dixian moved like lightning, sliding backward close to the ground.
At the same time, he took out his clear spring wine pot from behind and drank deeply with his head tilted back.
Buzz—
The Azure Lotus Sword emitted a clear sword cry.
Sword qi once again erupted from the Great Vertebrae Sword Bone, soaring into the sky.
Soul Power gradually surged and recovered as the wine entered his throat.
Detoxification, damage immunity, agility... several positive enhancements enveloped him.
The Wine Spirit, infused with various peerless immortal brews, began to display its terrifying enhancing effects.
Starlight, ice and fire, and clear wind swirled around Li Dixian.
His hair crown was scattered by the Soul Power, and his long hair cascaded down, dancing wildly in the night wind.
Through the gaps in his hair, Li Dixian's eyes were filled with boiling killing intent.
No matter what power you belong to!
Since you came to kill me, you all shall die today!
Since that day's death match with Zhao Wuji in the rain, this was the first time he had unleashed his full power without reservation!
At this moment.
Qian Renxue had already slain all the men in black she was fighting.
Her sacred face was as cold as frost, and blood still dripped from the Sword of Light in her hand.
With a flash of her figure, she flew to Li Dixian's side, the chill on her face replaced by panic.
"Qian Renxue, you... you're fine..."
"Li Dixian."
Li Dixian's gaze was fixed on the approaching enemies.
"Can you stop three Spirit Kings?"
Qian Renxue paused slightly, then understood.
Six massive holy wings suddenly unfurled behind her.
The Sword of Light shone brightly, illuminating the surrounding darkness.
Yellow, yellow, purple, purple, black—five Soul Rings rose from beneath her feet.
Qian Renxue charged towards the three Spirit Kings with her sword raised.
One of the Spirit Kings spoke in alarm:
"Your Highness, the Saintess, you..."
"Silence!"
Upon hearing this address.
Qian Renxue's azure eyes erupted with overwhelming killing intent.
The Sword of Light, imbued with terrifying Soul Power fluctuations, delivered a heavy blow to the Spirit King who had spoken.
Boom—!
With a loud bang.
That Spirit King was actually sent flying a hundred meters by Qian Renxue's enraged strike.
Li Dixian, catching a glimpse from the corner of his eye, couldn't help but praise, indeed worthy of a divine Spirit.
Seeing Qian Renxue restrain the three Spirit Kings.
Li Dixian's cold gaze swept over the remaining three Spirit Kings and several Spirit Kings.
The night wind swept up his blood-stained long hair, revealing his eyes filled with chilling killing intent.
A peculiar Soul Ring suddenly rose from beneath his feet.
Above the Soul Ring, the power of attributes flowed ceaselessly, and the imprints of twelve sharp sword feathers were clearly visible.
"Third Spirit Ability - Azure Lotus Twelve Tribulations!"
Twelve Azure Lotus Sword shadows materialized.
They firmly surrounded the three Spirit Kings and several Spirit Kings.
The three attribute sword intents of starlight, ice and fire, and clear wind raged and crisscrossed within the sword array.
Li Dixian, with the three Azure Lotus Swords floating behind him, boldly entered the chilling sword array.
In an instant.
Sword qi soared to the sky!
Sword lights of various colors danced like dragons and snakes, a magnificent sight!
Roars and wails intertwined within the sword array, their sounds gradually fading.
Only viscous blood slowly seeped from the edges of the sword array.
Dozens of breaths later.
The twelve Azure Lotus Swords hummed and vibrated.
Finally unable to sustain themselves, they shattered with a crash.
The scene within the array was one of corpses strewn everywhere, blood soaking the earth.
Li Dixian stood alone in his blood-stained white robe, his Azure Lotus Sword pointing diagonally to the ground, a crimson line of blood dripping from its tip.
His handsome face showed neither sorrow nor joy.
But the killing intent emanating from him was three parts more bone-chilling than the dark night.
