"How is it possible that we caught up so quickly?"
In a hurry, Emperor Yi had to use the Hell Ghost King Claw again, exuding icy cold air from his hands, and struck at the flying ancient sword of Shen Yuan.
"puff!"
Shen Yuan's ancient sword was as powerful as a broken bamboo, piercing the palm of Di Yi's right hand, passing through the palm, and half of the sword body pierced Di Yi's chest.
Crimson blood continued to gush out from Di Yi's palms and chest, dripping down to the ground along the dim holy leather armor.
"How...how could this happen..."
Di Yi's face was very pale. Although he knew the power of Shen Yuan's ancient sword, he still found it difficult to accept the current result.
It is impossible for a hundred-marked sacred weapon to penetrate the holy leather soft armor. Could it be that Zhang Ruochen's sword has reached the level of a thousand-marked sacred weapon?
Shen Yuan's ancient sword naturally does not reach the level of the Thousand Patterns Sacred Artifact. However, its sword body is forged from the God of Creation Iron, which is extremely sharp. What's more, it also absorbs a large number of real weapons and holy weapons. Therefore,
, the sharpness of Shen Yuan's ancient sword is naturally not comparable to other hundred-pattern sacred weapons.
Zhang Ruochen flew down from mid-air, pinched his index and middle fingers together to form a sword formula, controlled Shen Yuan's ancient sword, and pushed forward suddenly.
The ancient sword of Shen Yuan piercing Di Yi's body erupted with a more powerful sword light, pushing Di Yi's body and crashing into the distance.
The sharp sword body continued to penetrate deeper, and the sword tip emerged from Di Yi's back.
Shen Yuan's ancient sword kept knocking Di Yi's body thousands of meters away, spilling blood all over the ground.
"puff!"
Finally, Shen Yuan's ancient sword penetrated Di Yi's body and flew out from Di Yi's back.
Zhang Ruochen stretched out his hand and grabbed the bloody hilt of the sword. With a wave of his arm, a sheet of blood fell from the sword's edge.
Carrying Shen Yuan's ancient sword, Zhang Ruochen walked up to Di Yi and said coldly: "Do you still think you can escape today? That sword strike just now was my promise to an old friend to avenge her brother."
If other monks suffered such heavy injuries, they would definitely die.
Di Yi did not die, however, and still stood firmly on the spot, with a malicious light in his eyes. The black holy energy in his body surged out again, converging on the wounds on his chest and palms, making a "chichi" sound.
The two wounds are healing quickly.
His body seemed truly immortal.
Zhang Ruochen watched quietly, until Di Yi's injuries recovered to 70% or 80%, then he swung his sword again, dragged out a sword light, and struck Di Yi's neck.
Di Yi's eyes widened and he was extremely angry. He stretched out his hands to grab Shen Yuan's ancient sword.
However, just as his fingers came into contact with the sword's edge, they were cut off, and all ten of his fingers flew out immediately.
With a bang, Shen Yuan's ancient sword struck Di Yi's neck, directly cutting off his head.
Although Di Yi's head rolled away, the shadow of the demon on the ground turned into a dark shadow and quickly fled, reaching a place thirty feet away.
"Chi!"
Black flames surged out of Di Yi's head and headless body, and soon the body was burned to ashes, and a stream of black holy energy and a stream of red blood arose.
The holy energy and blood energy flew to the location of the demon's shadow, and once again condensed into the body of Emperor Yi, which was intact, with no injuries at all.
Although Di Yi condensed his body again, Zhang Ruochen could see that Di Yi's aura had become much weaker, and even his cultivation level was showing signs of regression.
It can be seen from this that the so-called immortal body is not really immortal.
Zhang Ruochen said coldly: "The second sword is for the thousands of unjust souls who died for the royal family of Yunwu County. I will always remember this grudge. I am... coming to claim your life on their behalf."
"Zhang Ruochen, you can't kill me."
Di Yi gritted his teeth and roared angrily.
Zhang Ruochen said: "Really? If I kill you again, your cultivation level will probably drop to the first level of fish-dragon transformation."
Di Yi's eyes turned red, he clasped his hands together, and a mark of divine power appeared between his eyebrows, with it as the center, a small vortex formed.
The energy emanating from the vortex became stronger and stronger, and its coverage became wider and wider, as if it was about to sweep Zhang Ruochen into it.
From the depths of Di Yi's eyebrows, a crimson brilliance flew out, condensing into an ancient seal.
The crimson ancient seal was suspended above Di Yi's head, spinning rapidly. With each rotation, the ancient seal would become larger, and the power fluctuations would be stronger.
In an instant, the red ancient seal became more than thirty meters tall, and its entire body was wrapped in blazing flames, exuding an ancient and majestic holy power.
The red ancient seal is called the "Red Bronze Brahma Seal". It has reached the pinnacle of the Hundred-Pattern Sacred Artifact. One strike is enough to crush a mountain into flat ground.
Its grade is even higher than the current Shen Yuan Ancient Sword.
Emperor Yi roared, controlled the red copper Brahma Seal, and suppressed Zhang Ruochen.
At the same time, the shadow of the demon on the ground continued to rush towards Zhang Ruochen, attacking Zhang Ruochen's legs from below.
The red copper Brahma Seal was on top, and the Demonic Shadow was on the bottom. The two attacks were launched at the same time. It can be seen that Di Yi was also forced to fight Zhang Ruochen desperately.
The powerful holy power of the red copper Brahma Seal seemed to suppress the entire space and solidify it, greatly restricting Zhang Ruochen's ability to move and preventing Zhang Ruochen from using space to move and escape.
This was not the first time Zhang Ruochen had fought against Di Yi, so he naturally understood Di Yi's trump card.
Just when Emperor Yi hit the red copper Brahma Seal, Zhang Ruochen took out the Divine Wooden Diagram of the Universe and threw it into the sky. The scroll unfolded, and a door to space opened, forming a devouring force and taking in the red copper Brahma Seal.
.
"No……"
Di Yi sensed that something was wrong, and tried his best to circulate his true energy, trying to take back the red copper Brahma Seal.
It's a pity that everything is in vain. His cultivation is one level lower than Zhang Ruochen, so he has no advantage. What's more, how can the red copper Brahma Seal defeat the Divine Wood Map of the Universe?
After a while, the red copper Brahma Seal was taken into the picture scroll world and lost contact with Emperor Yi.
When Zhang Ruochen drew the Divine Wood of Heaven and Earth, he also mobilized his mental power to condense a ball of lightning, which hit the ground and hit the shadow of the demon.
There was a bang, and wisps of blue smoke appeared on the ground.
The demon's shadow suffered heavy damage, became a little dim, and fled back in a hurry.
Seeing that the red copper Brahma Seal was taken away, Di Yi's face turned very pale, and he murmured: "That... what kind of sacred weapon is that? How can the red copper Brahma Seal be taken away?"
Zhang Ruochen took back the picture of the Divine Wood of Heaven and Earth, held it in his hand, stared at Di Yi across from him, and said: "It's just a picture scroll. If you have other sacred artifacts, I can also take them away."
Holding a sword, Zhang Ruochen walked towards Di Yi step by step: "Di Yi, my third sword will be to avenge my mother. If you involve her in the fight between us, it is a capital crime.
I won’t let you suffer for too long. I will give you a happy ending with the last sword and completely end the grudge between us.”
After passing the two swords in front, Zhang Ruochen had already seen some clues.
As long as the black holy energy and blood energy are taken away from Di Yi, he can be completely killed.
"Da da!"
Every sound of footsteps is like the tolling of a death knell.
Di Yi finally understood that Zhang Ruochen's purpose in coming to the Eastern Territory Evil Land was entirely to seek revenge against him.
One stroke of hatred, one stroke of calculation.
Only Di Yi could feel the pain every time he was killed. The feeling was so painful that it was even more painful than death.
Originally, when Di Yi heard the news of Zhang Ruochen's death, he breathed a long sigh of relief. He thought that he had become the most talented person in the Eastern Region and did not take anyone seriously.
Even if he knew that the Red Wish Star Envoy had the ambition to compete for the young master, he only regarded the Red Wish Star Envoy as a small role. He thought that as long as he rushed to Qingyun County, he could make the Red Wish Star Envoy just wave his hand.
Turn into ashes and disappear into smoke.
Zhang Ruochen's reappearance destroyed his confidence and pride.
It was only at this moment that Di Yi suddenly realized that he had indeed underestimated his opponents and was too careless in the past. Otherwise, with so many experts around him, how could Zhang Ruochen and the Red Star Envoy be his opponent even if they teamed up?
"Zhang Ruochen, you are really like a mirror. When I confronted you, I truly realized that I have so many weaknesses." Di Yi smiled instead of getting angry.
Zhang Ruochen said: "It's not too late to understand, but it's too late!"
"Not too late, not too late." Di Yi shook his head.
There was no negative emotion of panic or anger on his face, which actually gave people a feeling of returning to his original nature.
"Oh! Do you think you can still escape?" Zhang Ruochen said.
"Aren't you curious as to why I fled towards the Falling God Mountain Range? Instead of escaping towards the Evil Emperor City?" Di Yi asked in return.
"Why?" Zhang Ruochen asked.
Di Yi smiled, raised his head, and looked in the direction of the Falling God Mountain.
I saw a red cloud of fire flying over in a hurry on the horizon. Faintly, I could see countless golden shadows shaking in the cloud, making a "quacking" sound.
Zhang Ruochen opened his eyes and looked calmly, only to see that the flying fire cloud was actually thousands of red crows.
The Scarlet Crow is a third-level superior beast, with the bloodline of the ancient divine bird "Golden Crow", and its strength is comparable to the Dzogchen warriors of the Earth's Ultimate Realm.
Since the establishment of the First Central Dynasty, the imperial court has begun to encircle and suppress barbaric beasts on a large scale. The barbaric beasts in the entire Kunlun Realm have long been dormant. Thousands of red crows appeared at one time, which can be said to be a quite rare spectacle.
Among the crowd of crows, there is a Red Blazing Crow King, whose body is very huge and blazing flames emit from his whole body, just like the legendary Golden Crow.
From a distance, the Red Crow King is like a scorching sun in the red clouds, emitting an astonishing aura of power.
"quack!"
Crows flew over Zhang Ruochen and Di Yi's heads, then swooped down and circled around them, turning the land within a hundred miles into a field of fire.
