Wow~
Under the impact of the terrifying residual power, Yang Qi suddenly spurted out a mouthful of blood, and his own breath was weakened a little. As for the shadow clone, it was even worse. Although it did not dissipate directly, it was almost at the point of running out of energy.
Whoosh~
Yang Qi's mind moved, and he immediately merged the shadow clone back into the main body, so that the clone would not be annihilated, and he would not have to waste time to condense the shadow clone again. However, in order to restore the strength of the shadow clone, it would require the consumption of some soul power, which was unavoidable.
"He has lost more than 10% of his vitality. The dying blow of this old demon Xueyan is really terrifying!" Feeling the loss of his own vitality, Yang Qi was filled with emotion.
The Blood Flame Demon's dying attack was weakened by him, and its power was greatly reduced, but even so, it consumed more than 10% of his vitality. Of course, this loss of vitality was not only due to the Blood Flame Demon's dying attack, but also due to the residual power of the fight between the two sides.
But even so, it was caused by the dying blow of the old demon Xueyan. If he had not used the secret method and shadow clone in time, I am afraid that his damage would be even greater under this move, and even the soul attack contained in it might directly shake his soul.
"Um?"
Although he blocked the attack of the Blood Flame Demon, Yang Qi did not dare to be careless and immediately sensed the Blood Flame Demon's breath.
“Disappeared?”
However, Yang Qi did not sense any breath of the Blood Flame Demon. He immediately looked in the direction of the Blood Flame Demon, only to see that the Blood Flame Demon's body was still there, but there was no breath of life left in his body. He had already died.
"Finally dead!"
Looking at the dead old demon Xueyan, Yang Qi couldn't help but feel relieved.
When he attacked, Blood Flame Demon had already consumed a lot of energy, but even so, facing the siege of four people, Blood Flame Demon still almost escaped, and even killed one or two of them in a dying counterattack. It was only because Blood Flame Demon was determined to kill Yang Qi that no one died. In fact, Blood Flame Demon himself was only a five-star martial emperor, and the practitioners who participated in the battle were also five-star martial emperors, and the difference in cultivation between them and Blood Flame Demon was actually not that big.
“Sure enough, when one’s cultivation reaches a high level, even a small gap in realm is like a chasm.” Yang Qi sighed inwardly.
In his usual battles, he often fought against opponents of one or even two realms, and it seemed that fighting against opponents of different realms was easy. But in reality, for ordinary Martial Emperor cultivators, fighting against opponents of smaller realms was extremely difficult, not to mention fighting against opponents of larger realms.
This time's fight with the Blood Flame Demon made Yang Qi feel this clearly. Even when he burst out with all his strength, there was still some gap between his combat power and the Blood Flame Demon's. This little gap was like a chasm. If he fought alone, he would definitely not be the Blood Flame Demon's opponent.
The reason why Yang Qi was able to be so powerful was due to many factors. Except that his own cultivation was only at the mid-stage of three-star Martial Emperor, in other aspects, such as the realm of Tao, Tao soldiers, physical strength, and soul strength, he was not inferior to the Blood Flame Old Demon, and was even better and stronger than the Blood Flame Old Demon!
The gray-robed man looked at the dead Blood Flame Demon and said with emotion, "This big demon is finally dead!"
The other practitioners on the side couldn't help but nodded. The old demon Xueyan was also a somewhat famous demon in the Xuanjian Domain. After all, his own strength was a five-star Martial Emperor. Even in the Xuanjian Domain, he was considered a strong man.
"My name is Zhu Tao. May I ask your name, fellow Taoist?" The leading man looked at Yang Qi and asked.
Yang Qi took a pill to restore his vitality, then he bowed and said, "I am Yang Qi, nice to meet you, Brother Zhu."
"Brother Yang, you don't have to be polite. This time, it was thanks to Brother Yang's help. Otherwise, even if we were able to save our lives, I'm afraid that the devil Xueyan Old Demon would still escape." Zhu Tao sighed, and then said, "Let me introduce these friends to you..."
Immediately, Zhu Tao introduced the seven companions beside him one by one. The man in gray robe was named Kong Chen, and the middle-aged man who led the reinforcements was named He Zhenyue.
"This time, we were able to kill the Blood Flame Demon, thanks to Brother Yang. If everyone has no objection, the treasures on the Blood Flame Demon will belong to Brother Yang. How about that?" Zhu Tao looked at the people around him and said.
He Zhenyue heard this and smiled slightly, "I have no objection."
“Isn’t this a bit too much?” Yang Qi was stunned. He didn’t expect that Zhu Tao and others would actually leave the treasures on the Blood Flame Demon to him. The Blood Flame Demon was a five-star Martial Emperor, and also a demon who was doing evil. He definitely had a lot of treasures on him.
"Brother Yang, you don't have to refuse. Although we did contribute, if it weren't for you, the old demon Xueyan would have escaped long ago. And you can say that the old demon Xueyan was killed by you. We were just harassing him." Kong Chen chuckled and continued, "Besides, we accepted the demon-killing mission. The reward for killing the old demon Xueyan is quite extraordinary, so we won't suffer any loss."
"Oh well."
Hearing what Kong Chen said, Yang Qi could no longer refuse and collected the treasures left by the Blood Flame Demon. As for the Blood Flame Demon's corpse, he needed to take it to complete the task.
"Brother Yang, what are your plans next?" Zhu Tao looked at Yang Qi and asked.
Upon hearing this, Yang Qi did not hide his intention and said, "I plan to travel around the Xuanjian Territory, but I haven't decided where to go yet."
"Brother Yang, aren't you going to Tianxuan Sword Realm?" Zhu Tao asked in surprise.
Tianxuan Sword Realm
Yang Qi was startled and looked at Zhu Tao in confusion, "What is that place?"
"Brother Yang, aren't you a disciple of the Xuanjian Sect?" He Zhenyue looked at Yang Qi and asked.
As soon as this was said, Yang Qi quickly explained, "I came from another star region and happened to pass by Xuanjian Region. Plus, I follow the path of swordsmanship, so I plan to travel around Xuanjian Region."
"I see. No wonder you don't know about the Profound Heavenly Sword Realm."
After hearing Yang Qi's explanation, Zhu Tao nodded and continued, "The Mysterious Heavenly Sword Realm is a secret realm left by Elder Xuan Jian. It opens once every 100,000 years, and low-level Martial Emperor practitioners can enter it."
"Um?"
Yang Qi's eyes flashed with surprise, and he immediately asked, "Can practitioners other than the Xuanjian Sect enter?"
Since the Tianxuan Sword Realm was left by old man Xuanjian, it is very likely that it is directly controlled by the Xuanjian Sect. After all, the Xuanjian Sect is fully capable of doing so. If the Xuanjian Sect controls the secret realm, how could it easily allow outsiders to enter it
“It’s natural!”
Zhu Tao nodded and said with a smile, "When Elder Xuan Jian left behind the Tianxuan Sword Realm, he also left behind the rules for entering the Tianxuan Sword Realm. In addition to the disciples of the Xuanjian Sect, outsiders who have practiced for less than ten thousand years can obtain a place by participating in the Tianxuan Arena Battle. However, the disciples of the Xuanjian Sect cannot participate in the Tianxuan Arena Battle." (To be continued)
