Chapter 266: The Authorities Are Confused

　　The Empress and Xu Yang exchanged a wave of spirit, yet this time even Xu Yang said that he couldn’t understand the situation.

　　”Doesn’t matter, let’s see what kind of over-the-top tricks he has!”

　　Responding to all changes with no change has never been Xu Yang’s fundamental principle in dealing with variables, after all, strength is the hard truth, no matter what kind of secret Wind Sleeve is hiding, it can’t escape Xu Yang’s suppression after all.

　　”Your growth is really shocking.”

　　Feng Sleeve looked at Xu Yang with a smile.

　　”Then get lost.”

　　Such a reply could be described as full of sharpness, causing Xu Yang to instinctively furrow his brows.

　　”But don’t think that you can really do whatever you want, this Nine Petal Dynasty Plant, we are bound to get it.

　　To be able to find your way here means that you have already obtained the secrets that we originally didn’t want you to get, but that’s fine, the three conditions leading to the Qilin Mountain are the final game between us, the Northern Jin Alliance, and you, and there can only be one winner from both of us.”

　　Xu Yang laughed coldly: “Seeing your calm and relaxed look, I’m sure that Tuoba Yun and the others should have already traveled to the Qiankun Daoist Sect, right?”

　　The corners of Feng Sleeve’s mouth lifted lightly, “You are really smart.

　　But unfortunately, you won’t have any chance of winning if you fight in this place.”

　　Wind Sleeve snapped her fingers, and uncountable sword awns flew out one after another, and Team Xu Yang soon felt a great sword aura suppressing them, and it was as if the surrounding void was filled with incomparably biting waves of sword aura.

　　”What an amazing aura ……,” Bai Renxue said in slight surprise.

　　”Don’t worry, the two of them are more than capable of handling it.”

　　The Nine Petal Dynasty Strain comforted Bai Renxue instead, as if she was quite confident in Xu Yang and the Empress’ strength.

　　”Oh?

　　Can you see the depths of my Master and the Empress?”

　　”Of course!

　　Don’t forget, I’m the king of flowers!

　　That one with the sword, if I’m not mistaken, he should be practicing with an ancient secret method that has been lost, called the Seven Tribulations of Heaven, with five thousand years as one tribulation, and after consummating the seven tribulations, he will be able to reach the limit of the legendary Transitional Great Perfection Man.

　　Now, he should have already passed the sixth calamity, and if he is at full power, he should be able to fight with the strongest person in the calamity realm.

　　However, if your master teacher and that girl join forces, not only will they be able to easily suppress this person, but even the Sword Formation Boundary behind him will not be a problem.

　　Their soul resonance is so powerful that even I have never seen it before.”

　　Of course, Chaotian Strain didn’t know that Xu Yang and the Empress had opened up a soul resonance method that no one had ever seen before, and with the help of the Ancestral Dragon Soul, their spiritual power had already reached the Human Extreme Realm, which was not at all something that Wind Sleeve was able to fight against.

　　The biting sword blade was soon annihilated, for the simple reason that all those sword awns in the air were all returned to that spell formation totem behind him, gathering into countless Heaven’s Sword Traces.

　　”Is this your domain?”

　　Xu Yang asked back with a calm expression.

　　”Not bad, this is my domain, combined with the unique sword formation of my Northern Jin lineage to create this unique Heavenly Sword Extreme Realm!

　　Within the locking range of my aura, anyone facing my sword qi will have their defense reduced by 30%, no matter what realm you are, you will not be spared.”

　　Xu Yang snorted coldly, “Then I am interested, I wonder if my Cloud Viewing Sword Dao is stronger or weaker compared to this Heavenly Sword Extreme Realm of yours!”

　　The female emperor and sensibly stepped back, leaving this stage to her man and this Wind Sleeve who was known as the number one in the Three Thousand Dao States Sword Dao.

　　At the same moment, the Guanyun Sword Intent behind Xu Yang’s back emerged once again, and the Eternal Divine Artifact in front of him erupted with a turquoise-blue sky-charging sword aura, burning out incomparably hot waves of sword light.

　　”This is ……” Xu Yang sneered coldly, “You think that you are the only one who possesses a Sword Dao Domain?

　　My Cloud Viewing Sword had a breakthrough when I left the East Sea, I just never used it in actual combat, so I’ll let you have a taste of it today!”

　　This breakthrough of Xu Yang’s was only clear to the Empress who resonated with it spiritually, the others were unaware of it even to their own teammates.

　　At the first appearance, that sword aura behind Xu Yang was like the end of the ocean, the endless sword qi around him turned into turquoise blue waves surging out, quickly covering the location where Wind Sleeve was.

　　”Outrageous!

　　This sword qi is actually so powerful, Xu Yang ah Xu Yang, why did you manage to be one step ahead of me after all, is this the will of heaven?”

　　Feng Sleeve was obviously a bit annoyed, he originally thought that he had just crossed into the sixth tribulation, and if he was on fire, he could reach the strength of the Tribulation Realm, which should be enough to suppress Xu Yang.

　　But after this meeting, he realized that Xu Yang in the realm has been able to with the peak state of his own equal, in other words, if Xu Yang also open the strongest posture, the same can be asked to suppress the wind sleeve.

　　Clenching his teeth, Feng Sleeve raised his eyes in anger, and behind him, countless sword awns rushed towards Xu Yang at the same time.

　　”Ten thousand swords containing light!”

　　Swish swish swish ……

　　Terrifying sword power fluctuations erupted at the same time, it was as if thousands of sword awns above the heavens pressed towards Xu Yang at the same time, and even if his silhouette was wrapped up in the sea-like indistinct waves, it would be categorically difficult for him to break free for a single moment.

　　However, very quickly, Feng Sleeve realized that this Xu Yang didn’t want to dodge at all, but rather, he unapologetically faced his own, how powerful sword power suppression.

　　”I remember that I had advised you not to go too far during our first encounter in the Thousand Clouds Sect.

　　Unfortunately, your ambition and your strength don’t match perfectly, with your current underpinnings, even if you ascend Kirin Mountain, what awaits you is only the end of your fall.”

　　Wind Sleeve laughed indifferently, “Don’t sell yourself short here, you dare to say that you’re not interested in the inheritance of Qilin Mountain?

　　There is not only the Kirin Mountain Divine Level Domain there, but also the location of the Ancestral Dragon’s Dragon Hide, whoever can enter the Kirin Mountain will become the absolute master who will control the Three Thousand Daos State in the future, or even the entire continent!”

　　In fact, Feng Sleeve’s purpose and ambition was already very clear, what he wanted to do was not to break the mirror and ascend, but to stop his realm at the great circle of the Transition Realm, in this way, he would become the strongest person in this continent without touching the rules of the upper realm, and naturally, he would be able to control everything within the continent as well.

　　Rather be the head of a chicken than the tail of a phoenix was Wind Sleeve’s ultimate goal.

　　”Heh, master?

　　Do you really think that this continent is what you see here?

　　In other words, this Ice Mountain Range has also brought me great inspiration, perhaps, everything we see on the great road is merely a plaything in the palm of some deity in the upper realm.

　　Obsessing too deeply will ultimately end up doing nothing but harm to others and ourselves.”

　　Xu Yang’s ability to speak these words stemmed from this transcendent depth of experience that he had.

　　After all, he was the only person on the continent who had cultivated a single realm to the extreme, and tended to look at things very thoroughly.

　　Cultivating an extreme realm was a hundred thousand years.

　　How many hundred thousand years were there in a person’s life?

　　Perhaps endless cultivation, a pursuit, was itself a form of confinement.
