The Eternal Supreme Chapter 67 – Cut Off The Arm

Chapter 67: Cut Off The Arm

Li Yi’s face was gloomy as he threw out his fists in great fury, streams of ice energy dispersing the sword qi that streaked across the air. “Even if you can unseal two third-grade mystic weapons at the same time, there is a gap of two realms between you and me! Let’s see how you are going to cross it!” He cried out angrily.

“Two realms?” Yunxiao scoffed, “I may still have some fear if you are a Martial Lord. A mere Great Martial Master? Old Eight, look into my eyes!”

Startled, Li Yi looked reflexively into Yunxiao’s eyes. He immediately saw two demonic-looking, blood-red crescent moons, surrounded by endless darkness like a bottomless abyss of demons.

Yunxiao’s face was cold as he said softly, “Universal Soul Suppressor—Demon Moon!”

“AHHH!”

Li Yi only felt that his mind was lost instantly. With his face turning blank and his hands hung listlessly, he stood there like an idiot.

“Good, very good! Now, you just stand there obediently and let me stab you twice with my swords.”

Yunxiao’s face became a little ferocious while his eyes glowed evilly, and the veins on his forehead bulged as beads of sweats rolled off his cheeks. Obviously, casting this eye technique was too demanding for him!

He raised the Taiyin sword gently and then slashed it down fiercely!

“Watch out, junior brother!”

In the distance, Guang Yuanjia noticed that the situation was not right, and he immediately let out an anxious roar. His voice was infused with energy, so it rang out like a bell and shook the hearts of those who heard it.

Li Yi shuddered and woke up instantly, horrified to find that the sword was only three inches from the tip of his nose. He could not avoid it!

“Ahh!”

In desperation, his potential shot up. At this critical juncture, he forcibly moved several inches to the side! In the next moment, the sword fell and cut off his left arm! A great pain washed up his shoulder, making him bare his teeth and break out in a cold sweat.

Yunxiao shook his head slightly. He knew that since he had failed to kill Li Yi this time, he would not be able to do it again even if he went on fighting. Therefore, he simply stepped back and stared at Li Yi coldly with the sword in his arms.

The soul attack technique he just cast was called ‘Universal Soul Suppressor’. It was a very powerful divine ability that could only be cast by people with strong souls. It consumed a lot of soul power, no less than a high-intensity refinement session.

In addition to their strength, each of those peak-level Martial Sovereigns at the top of the Heaven and Earth Power Chart had an extremely powerful advantage that made their opponents unable to keep pace with. For example, Tyrant Martial Sovereign’s imperishable golden body and his previous incarnation, and Gu Feiyang’s ninth-tier soul power. This ‘Universal Soul Suppressor’ was a kind of divine ability that directly attacked the soul. With his ninth-tier soul power in his previous life, even Martial Sovereigns of the Nine Heavens realm did not dare to look him in the eye.

Therefore, with his current soul power of a second-tier alchemist, he could make an unprepared Great Martial Master lose his mind for a short time. However, after failing for the first time, he was unable to cast it for the second time, and Li Yi was already on his guard.

Nevertheless, Li Yi did not know Yunxiao’s current situation. After his left arm was cut off, he was utterly horrified, and the feeling of being completely controlled by someone else just now had thoroughly chilled his heart. “Senior brothers, let’s retreat for now!” he cried out in a hurry.

Guang Yuanjia and Yu Yuanwen had been pestered by Ji Meng. The more they fought, the angrier they became. Although they had the upper hand under their joint forces, Ji Meng’s desperate fighting style, coupled with his unpredictable sword technique, still gave them a great headache.

Now, after seeing Li Yi not only lose the sword given to him by their master but also an arm, the two of them had no more desire to fight. After forcing back Ji Meng with one strike, they immediately retreated to Li Yi’s side, grabbed him from left and right, and then leaped into the air to flee.

Ji Meng was about to pursue but Yunxiao stopped him. “Don’t worry about these three now. Get rid of their minions.”

As soon as the enemy Martial Masters saw that their leaders had fled, they immediately lost their fighting spirit. They retreated as they fought, trying to find a chance to escape the battlefield. However, the State Guardians responsible for protecting Yunxiao had long been furious because of their heavy casualties. They would not let these enemies escape so easily!

Yunxiao watched the slaughter coldly. His face was expressionless as if he was staring blankly, but his heart was filled with surprise.

He clearly felt that the Great Expansion Divine Technique, which was almost impossible to take shape, was able to barely appear in the Divine Realm Tablet after he cast the eye technique once and suffered a great loss of his soul power.

Sure enough, this Divine Realm Tablet was a divine artifact that surpassed the super-grade mystic weapons!

There must be some power in the tablet that could support the manifestation of the Great Expansion Divine Technique. Yunxiao sent his divine sense into the tablet and read the little gold characters in silence. With that, he immediately felt a strange power emerging between the lines that began to flow through the tablet into his body, then gather in the spiritual altar in his mind, nourishing his soul like a stream of clear spring.

The feeling of nourishment was more comfortable and refreshing than any medicinal pills he knew.

Just as the Great Expansion Divine Technique was constantly nourishing his soul through the tablet, with Ji Meng joining in the fray, the twenty or so enemy Martial Masters were quickly killed.

Ji Meng walked up to a dead masked Martial Master and tore off his mask. Suddenly, his eyes burst with anger, and his whole body was shaking.

Looking at his expression, Yunxiao asked, “Is he your subordinate?”

Ji Meng said sadly, “I didn’t expect Young Master Yun to have guessed it. Yes, this man’s name is Liu Zheng. He had just joined the First Unit not long ago, and he was originally my direct subordinate. He is only twenty-seven years old and a three-stars Martial Master. I used to encourage him. He had a bright future…”

With a solemn expression, Yunxiao said, “As a State Guardian, he couldn’t help it. Obeying orders is a State Guardian’s highest duty. He is an excellent State Guardian, for he died under his faith. You should be happy for him.”

The men responsible for protecting Yunxiao were members of the Third Unit, Bai Mou’s subordinates. Half of them were killed, and the remaining ten were all wounded. On hearing Yunxiao’s words, they became silent and then saluted the bodies lying on the ground.

Ji Meng said sadly, “They are all good guardians, but they should have died for the state and not a cowardly death like this! I feel unworthy for them!”

“Not everyone can die on the battlefield. As long as they fulfill their duty, they are good guardians.”

While the two were talking, a white figure flew over from the distance: it was Bai Mou. Her white dress and veil were stained with blood. Clearly, she was also wounded.

“I can’t believe it was Gao Feng who ambushed us with the men from the First Unit! Is everyone all right?” As she glanced around, she saw the bodies all over the ground. Her pupils constricted and her eyes flashed with anger as she gnashed her teeth and cried out, “Gao Feng!”

Yunxiao said calmly, “Let’s get out of here as soon as possible to avoid further trouble.”

Without saying a word, the group of people began to move forward in silence. But, unbeknown to Bai Mou, the look in the eyes of these guardians from the Third Unit watching Yunxiao and Ji Meng had grown awestruck and respectful.

Soon, they arrived at Prince Yue’s residence. Only then did everyone’s hearts become relaxed, because not only there were a large number of experts in the residence, but also various powerful arrays. No one would be foolish enough to attack a prince’s residence unless they had dispensed with all civilities and did not care about casualties.

Qin Yue personal came out to greet them. Seeing the messy look of the crowd, he quickly asked what had happened and flew into a rage after learning about the situation.

He immediately sent people to settle all the Martial Masters and gave large quantities of medicinal pills and Primordial Stones to everyone, also providing several times more pension and burial expenses to the dead. After he had done all this, only then did the mood of the guardians become slightly better.

Yunxiao and the others followed Prince Yue straight into the council hall. Once inside, he immediately found that many senior ministers in the court were there, and the man sitting at the far end of the hall was none other than his grandfather.

As soon as Li Chunyang saw Yunxiao, his eyes burst with a light and his face was filled with joy. Although they had not seen each other for only half a month, his grandson had advanced by two more stars, which made him very gratified. With a smile on his face, he said, “What happened? Did you run into trouble on the way?”

Yunxiao gave a brief account of the matter. Not only did the expressions of everyone present change dramatically, even Bai Mou was shocked and felt incredulous.

Li Chunyang’s face became extremely dark as he said furiously, “I can’t believe this bast*rd 8527 is still in the capital…I thought he had run away. It looks like he has colluded with Prince Yang now. But, they have two Martial Lords, and 8527 himself is a Great Martial Master! How did you escape?”

Bai Mou and Qin Yue fixed their eyes at Yunxiao. This was also the question in their minds.

Yunxiao said lightly, “Thanks to Ji Meng! He alone had kept the two Martial Lords in check, so that we could deal with 8527 and eventually cut off one of his arms. The two Martial Lords panicked and fled with 8527. The other enemies were former State Guardians from the First Unit, and were all killed by us.”

Although he said those words in a calm and flat voice, anyone could hear the danger they had been in. Li Chunyang stared at Ji Meng in astonishment and asked, “How could a nine-stars Great Martial Master keep two Martial Lords in check?”

Li Chunyang was Yunxiao’s grandfather, so Ji Meng did not dare to be impolite. He said hastily, “This is all because of a magical pill given to me by Young Master Yun. It made me break through to the realm of Martial Lords in an instant, which is the reason why I was able to keep two Martial Lords in check.”

“What kind of pill can make a Great Martial Master break through to the realm of Martial Lords in an instant!” Li Chunyang said in shock.

Yunxiao played dumb and said, “You don’t know? I found the pill in the family’s secret vault. It’s said that it can temporarily improve a warrior’s strength. However, it has a serious side effect. Within ten days of taking it, the strength of the warrior will become weaker and weaker, eventually falling to the level of an average person, and then slowly recover in another ten days. In other words, you can’t fight for twenty days after taking it.”

“Do we have this kind of pill in our secret vault?” Li Chunyang thought for a moment, but he never seemed to have heard of it. In any case, since the side effect of this pill was so serious, it seemed that its value was not as high as he had imagined, so he lost interest.

Ji Meng, on the other hand, breathed a sigh of relief in his heart when he heard that. After taking the pill and becoming so strong, he had been worried that it would affect his future cultivation base. Now, he felt at ease upon listening to Yun Xiao’s explanation. It turned out that the side effect was that he could not fight in the next twenty days. The enlightenment he had obtained after taking the pill and breaking through to the realm of Martial Lords was more than he could get by cultivating in seclusion for twenty days. He was confident that he would be able to truly break through to the realm of Martial Lords after his next secluded cultivation.

“I didn’t expect my brother to collude with the spy of our enemy state just to deal with the Li Family! Can he be so unscrupulous to get what he wants!” Qin Yue said angrily.
