novel against the - chapter 2052

This scene completely went against Hua Qingying’s understanding of the abyss beasts.

However, she didn’t have the time to feel the slightest bit of surprise because her heart and soul had already been completely filled with extreme fear in an instant.

The Immortal Ending Sword also flew out of her hand toward the power that was trying to engulf Painted Glass.

As a well-known sword immortal, Hua Qingying specialized in the way of the sword and movement.

Her sword could kill someone in an instant, and no one could detect it more than thirty meters away.

This wasn’t just a sword intent that had reached perfection, it was also the ultimate mastery of profound energy.

To put it simply, she could condense profound energy into her sword and compress and control it to the extreme.

Even a tiny wisp of profound energy could instantly take a life with her sword intent.

Compared to Yun Che’s berserk profundity, his unrestrained attacks were two extremes.

Ever since Hua Qingying comprehended the Heaven Severing Sword Intent, she had never lost to an opponent of the same level.

It was because even if they had the same cultivation and profound energy, she would only use thirty percent of her opponent’s strength at most when they fought.

Her opponent’s overwhelming power suppression was something she could easily shatter with a single strand of sword light.

Her extreme agility and profundity was the origin of her “immortal” name.

It was also why she disdained the way of the heavy sword.

The heavy sword was powerful and violent, and it could fight a thousand men and defend ten thousand miles if it retreated. However, it consumed a lot of energy and was extremely crude.

If she encountered a strong enemy, she would weaken before she defeated them.

Even the Abyss Qilin supreme-ruler, who could destroy a hundred kilometers with a single claw, was nothing more than a stupid beast in her eyes.

That was why she could come and go as she pleased against the Abyss Qilin supreme-ruler even in the sea of fog.

But … at this moment, for the first time in her life, she clearly sensed the weakness of her strength.

Suppression … Her Immortal Ending Sword was chasing after the Abyss Qilin supreme-ruler’s enormous power … If this power was released in her direction, Painted Glass would still be hit by the shockwaves behind her, but it definitely wouldn’t be fatal.

However, if it was aimed directly at Painted Glass, at a distance of less than seventy kilometers … there was almost a ninety-nine percent chance of death!

The sound of the End Immortal Sword tearing through the air was almost like a sorrowful wail. It split into hundreds, thousands, tens of thousands of sword rays, dazzlingly slicing and destroying the power of the Abyss Qilin supreme-ruler

But in this short moment, the End Immortal Sword could not completely extinguish the power that covered the Painted Glass.

Thirty percent, fifty percent, sixty percent, seventy percent … The remaining thirty percent of the qilin’s supreme power that hadn’t been annihilated finally crashed into the space where the painted glass was.

The shadow of death closed in from behind. Painted Glass turned around with difficulty. She didn’t care about her internal injuries. She used the Glass Cloud Sword to form a fan-shaped sword formation.

Rumble … The incomparably sturdy ground of the Misty Sea sank down several dozen meters.

The Glass Cloud Sword’s sword light dimmed as it flew far away.

Meanwhile, its owner was sent flying like a withered leaf swept away by a hurricane. He flew far, far away, and then fell powerlessly onto the still trembling cold ground.

A glaring scarlet color quickly spread across her pure white outer garment, making her look exceptionally bleak.

“Caili!!” The world was a blur, sometimes white, sometimes gray.

She could faintly hear her aunt’s voice … It was filled with panic and sorrow that she had never heard before.

She couldn’t feel any pain. In fact, she couldn’t even feel the existence of her body.

Her aunt had said that no matter how heavy the injury, as long as she could still feel pain, it wasn’t scary.

What was scary was that she suddenly couldn’t feel any pain, because that meant … her body and soul were both heavily injured and on the verge of death.

She tried her best to curl her blood-stained fingers, but she couldn’t get up.

Her vision became more and more blurry. Her clearest consciousness was … the despair of her life rapidly slipping away.

supreme-ruler father … Aunt … Master … Yun … The disaster wasn’t over yet. The enraged Qilin supreme-ruler of the Abyss roared and attacked again. Its two qilin claws stirred up the Qilin’s power that had been mutated by the abyss, and heavily smashed into the ground below.

This time, its power wasn’t concentrated in the direction of Painted Glass. Instead, it covered the surrounding several hundred kilometers.

Within a hundred kilometers, all living beings below the level of a demisupreme-ruler would be severely injured, if not killed.

There were no blind spots, and no luck.

And with Painted Glass’s weak aura, she would undoubtedly die.

Its enormous body could instantly erupt with power as boundless as the sea.

Because it was a guardian Qilin supreme-ruler, the Qilin’s supreme-rulerly power it erupted with could protect countless living beings.

But now, it had become a demon supreme-ruler of destruction.

It had once been able to create a guardian domain in an instant, but now, it had become a domain of death that couldn’t be escaped.

“…” Painted Glass froze in place. A deep sense of powerlessness and despair made her feel as if she had returned to ten thousand years ago … when Qu Wanxin was lying in a pool of blood with a total of fifty-four Soul Severing Nails pierced into her body.

Back then, she was powerless to reverse the situation, and could only repent.

But now, facing Painted Glass, who had fallen into a death trap, the short distance of seventy kilometers was a chasm of despair … Even if she could stop time and protect Painted Glass.

Since there was no one around, the Qilin supreme-ruler of the Abyss would be able to catch up to him in a fit of rage … It would be a hopeless situation that he couldn’t escape from.

The Ending Immortal Sword in her hand suddenly lost power and fell from the sky.

It was as if her soul had instantly fallen into the abyss.

If I had fled with Painted Glass from the start instead of leaving Painted Glass alone and trying to lure it away, perhaps I would have had a chance of survival.

Back then, I had harmed Qu Wanxin.

And now, I had harmed her daughter … There was no doubt that she had made the most rational choice.

She had fought the Qilin supreme-ruler of the Abyss several times and knew that although it was huge, it wasn’t slow at all.

If she had fled with Painted Glass with all her strength, it would have taken her at least a hundred breaths to completely shake off the Qilin supreme-ruler of the Abyss.

Even if she had protected Painted Glass with all her strength, just the terrifying supreme pressure and spatial fluctuations from the Qilin supreme-ruler of the Abyss would have made her injuries worse until she died.

She had no other choice.

But she had never thought that the Qilin supreme-ruler of the Abyss, who had clearly been attracted by her aura and power, would attack Painted Glass, who had already fled far away.

Just as she was about to give up, a world-shaking dragon roar suddenly rang out in the distance.

Painted Glass’s sword soul trembled, and her dim eyes instantly became clear.

The Qilin supreme-ruler of the Abyss, who had raised its claws and was surging with enormous power, suddenly stopped under this ancient dragon roar.

During this momentary pause, a black shadow rushed out of the trembling space. It rushed straight for Painted Glass and quickly and carefully hugged her blood-stained body to its chest.

Painted Glass abruptly turned around. Even though her vision had been destroyed by the Abyss Dust, she still recognized the black shadow that had appeared beside Painted Glass.

Yun Che!?

She had been so flustered just now that she hadn’t noticed him at all.

And why was he approaching this land of calamity where everyone would retreat in fear … The warmth that touched her body was so familiar that it felt like she had fallen into a dream.

Her pale eyes trembled violently as she gradually saw the face that was right in front of her … the face that she thought she had lost for eternity.

“…” Her lips opened and closed, but no sound came out. The only thing that could be heard was the mist that blurred her vision once more.

After a short pause, the Qilin supreme-ruler of the Abyss slammed its claws down … but because it had stopped for a moment, its enormous power had naturally been reduced by half.

Boom — — The supreme power blasted Painted Glass far away, but she didn’t seem to feel anything. Her gaze was fixed on the distance … and in that instant, a yellow barrier was enveloped around Painted Glass’s body.

That was the stone barrier that symbolized the strongest protective profound energy, but it had been compressed to the smallest size possible. It only protected Painted Glass, but not Yun Che himself.

The ground was lifted three thousand meters into the air and filled the gray sky.

Two small figures were sent flying into different directions like bamboo boats in a stormy sea.

But in that instant, Hua Qingying clearly saw … countless cracks spread throughout the barrier around Hua Caili, and it only completely shattered the moment she landed on the ground.

Yun Che had abandoned his own protective barrier and blocked the Qilin supreme-ruler of the Abyss’s half-powered stomp from seventy kilometers away.

The black figure stood up … and his black clothes grew even darker. She knew that it was the blood that had dyed his entire body.

Yun Che’s cultivation was at the third level of the Divine Master Realm, but his strength and body were comparable to the early stage of the Divine Destruction Realm.

At that distance, as long as he defended with all his strength, he would have been able to withstand the shockwave from the Qilin supreme-ruler of the Abyss … and even if he was injured, it wouldn’t be a serious injury.

But he had given all of his protective power to Painted Glass.

It was easy to imagine that even a half-supreme-ruler with a Dragon supreme-ruler’s body would be broken and his organs would be shattered if he lost all of his power.

But the first thing he did was struggle to his feet and pounce toward Painted Glass again, leaving behind a trail of blood that could be seen clearly even from a distance.

A weak, bloody, but determined voice rang out from that direction. “I beg senior … to delay the evil beast … I swear on my life … that I will protect her …”

He picked up Painted Glass, and a new barrier formed around them.

His heavily injured body exploded with a speed that seemed like a miracle as he rushed toward the distance.

Rip!!

The Immortal Ending Sword that had fallen to the ground flew into the air. Painted Glass’s hair and white clothes fluttered in the wind as a violent profound energy vortex appeared around her.

A curtain of sword light swept down from the tip of her sword and formed a thousand layers of sword light in the blink of an eye.

She rarely used a curtain of sword light to fight an enemy.

However, at this moment, she wasn’t trying to subdue the enemy. Instead, she was trying to use all possible methods to obstruct its body and power.

Drip … Drip … Warm liquid dripped onto the girl’s cheeks. She opened her eyes and looked at Yun Che’s bloodied face. She couldn’t tell if this was a dream or reality.

“Young … Master … Yun …” Her voice was as faint as the wind, like a dream.

The ground was shaking, and the wind was howling in her ears like the wails of evil spirits.

He lowered his head in the girl’s hazy vision, and what appeared was still that faint smile that seemed eternally warm and calm. “Don’t be afraid, everything will be fine soon …”

A heavy pressure came from behind, and the aftershock of the power that had been blocked by the sword screen was still terrifying beyond compare.

Hua Caili felt herself being fiercely hugged … Even though her vision was hazy, she could still clearly see that the protective barrier that had originally enveloped the two of them had suddenly shrunk, and in the end, it turned into a thick layer of yellow light that flowed around her body.

“Don’t … Don’t …” Boom!

Space distorted, and Hua Caili’s consciousness once again turned blank. Her ears buzzed, but very quickly, everything became clear again.

She watched as Yun Che tumbled into the distance, but as he was tumbling, he forcibly rose into the air and turned around. His back was already badly mangled and his bones were ghastly. The moment he stood up, his left arm was bent backwards at a shocking angle.

The severity of his injuries was unimaginable.

That was because he had once again poured all of his protective power into her body.

Crack!

The bent arm was forcefully pulled back, but he did not even let out a light groan. He staggered and flew back to her side.

The left arm that had just been pulled back, and was undoubtedly enduring bone-piercing pain, firmly protected her in front of his chest. Then, he picked her up, and with a strength that came out of nowhere, he rushed forward without stopping.

Tears immediately blurred her vision. She clearly could not feel any pain in her body, but a heart-wrenching pain appeared in her heart.

“Put me down … You will … die …” She did her best to speak, and each word was tearful.

Drip … Drip … The rate at which the blood dripped was several times faster than before, but his lowered eyes still carried the warmest of smiles, and he did his best to put her at ease with a faint smile. “No … We … will not die …”

Yun Che’s footsteps staggered, and he slid to his knees on the ground. He spat out a large mouthful of blood, but he immediately rose into the air and fled for his life.

“Put me down …”

With all her remaining vitality and willpower, she desperately shouted, “Go … You have to keep your promise … We’ll never meet again …”

Yun Che’s blood-dyed long hair fell messily, touching the girl’s face. He looked forward and said in a soft voice, “I will not allow myself to become a burden to you, and I will not allow … you to be hurt …”

Boom!!

The tremors of the earth fiercely pushed Yun Che far away. He once again violently spat out blood and rolled on the ground dozens of times while hugging Hua Caili before finally stabilizing himself.

“I … didn’t hurt you, did I?” He asked anxiously and anxiously, afraid that there would be another wound on her body.

“…” Hua Caili didn’t reply. She stared blankly at Yun Che’s chest … There, a long Misty Sea Black Rock had pierced through his back and came out of his chest.

His soul felt as if it had fallen into a bottomless sea, where extreme coldness and extreme warmth intertwined.

Her lips trembled along with her heart and soul. For a long time, she was unable to make a sound.

She fancied that her tears had run out in the snow of that day.

But at this moment, her tears mixed with the warm blood on her face flowed down without stopping.

The injuries that kept piling up caused Yun Che’s speed to gradually slow down. However, he gritted his teeth so hard that they were about to shatter, and didn’t stop at all.

The Abyss Qilin supreme-ruler was slowly being lured away by Painting Clearshadow, and its power was being blocked by her sword curtain … With every passing moment, the distance between them was rapidly growing.

The residual power of the Abyss Qilin supreme-ruler was naturally weakening as well.

However, Yun Che was also nearing the end of his tether. Every time he tried to defend himself, he would undoubtedly have to gamble with his life.

Boom — Boom!

！

The space was trembling, and the aura of death was approaching again and again.

But Hua Caili seemed to be completely unaware of all of this. She just stared at Yun Che in a daze, watching every change in his expression, the shape of his facial features, every drop of blood, every trail of blood … She was greedy for the warmth of his body.

Suddenly, she was no longer afraid.

Just like that, the two of them died together … just like a shooting star … Li Suo watched silently from the beginning to the end. She didn’t say anything to distract Yun Che.

The hardest part of his plan today was to hide from Hua Qingying’s senses and have the Abyss Qilin supreme-ruler approach Hua Caili.

For this, he had gathered an exceptionally large amount of Abyss Dust.

And the Abyss Qilin supreme-ruler was hidden under the thick layer of Abyss Dust.

Right now, Yun Che’s control over the Abyss Dust hadn’t reached the point where he could do as he pleased.

In order to gather enough Abyss Dust, he had used more than twenty hours.

Obviously, he was very successful.

But there was one thing that Li Suo didn’t understand.

Why did he release the profound handle and sneak into the Abyss Dust, then fabricate the title of “Mist Emperor”?

It was completely meaningless.

Getting close enough to the Abyss Dust already meant that he had achieved his goal.

Using the title of “Mist Emperor” to speak was like drawing legs on a snake and increasing the risk.

Or … the identity of “Mist Emperor” was another part of his plan?
