Chapter 214: Surprise

The magical beasts pouncing toward Ye Xiao felt a threatening aura coming at them but before they could do anything, they were torn apart like paper by the hands of dragons that emerged out from the sea.

"Burp!"

Ye Xiao once again vomited out another mouthful of blood and sat down on the ground on one of his knees with the support of Sea Dragon Spear.

Although he knew if he attacked, he will be seriously injured because right now, he could not use the spirit energy inside his body nor could he control them. What was more, it was like chaos inside his body. The energy was wreaking havoc so much that he felt like exploding at any moment. But still, he attacked.

There was no reason except for one and that was there were more than Fifteen Sixth Grade Magical Beasts here and if he does not attack, Lin Hao will not be able to fight the Seventh Grade Magical Beast.

Seventh Grade Magical Beasts are the pinnacle of existence in the entire Azure Sky Continent but this Secret Realm was something special. There was not only seventh grade magical beasts here, but there were also Immortals.

With this attack, Ye Xiao killed half of the sixth grade magical beasts and now, there were only eight sixth grade magical beasts left.

"Roar! Roar!"

Seeing their companions die a terrible death, all beasts roared loudly and rushed toward Ye Xiao in anger, wanting to kill him at all cost.

Lin Hao took the advantage of this opportunity where the attention of all beasts was focused on Ye Xiao. He took out the Black Sword and rushed toward the Seventh Grade Magical Beast. The Sword Intent burst out from his body, locking the Seventh Grade Magical Beast straight away, causing it to be startled.

That beast immediately became alert because at this moment, not only did it felt Lin Hao's terrifying sword intent, it also felt an extremely horrible sword Qi from the black sword in Lin Hao's hand.

Seventh Grade Magical Beast was still an existence that was only weaker than an Immortal. Although Lin Hao has made a breakthrough in his cultivation and he was already a Martial Emperor Realm martial artist, but he was still nowhere near a seventh grade magical beast.

He could only rely on the God Slaying Sword so that he could kill it as fast as he can but he still chose to use the Black Sword because he wanted to see the extent of his strength. He wanted to know if he could fight a Seventh Grade Magical Beast without needing to take out the Broken God Slaying Sword from his Sea of Consciousness.

But, how can that beast let Lin Hao do whatever he wanted? It also started to fight with Lin Hao fiercely.

On one hand, Lin Hao and the Seventh Grade Magical Beast was fighting fiercely with the intention to kill the other and on the other hand, Ye Xiao was running while avoiding the attacks of the eight Sixth Grade Magical Beast.

Lin Hao thought maybe because Ye Xiao was unable to control the chaotic energy within his body so he could not fight the beasts, he could only run. But what he did notice was that Ye Xiao was not running recklessly to avoid the attack of the magical beasts but he was actually running in a pattern and if one were to look at him carefully, they could notice that Ye Xiao was definitely plotting something.

The fight of both groups continued and the explosive sound also continued to echo in the entire area. Time slowly passed and soon six hours passed by but there was no outcome.

Lin Hao was still fighting against the Seventh Grade Magical Beast while Ye Xiao was still running. From time to time, he would stop and wait for the beasts to approach him then he once again starts to run.

This process continued until another three hours later, Ye Xiao suddenly shouted, "Lin Hao, attack that boulder in the centre with your strongest attack."

Lin Hao was still fighting fiercely against and both he and the magical beast suffered heavy injuries but there was no victor. Lin Hao suffered more injuries compared to the Seventh Grade Magical Beast. He was still not its opponent.

He felt dejected and was about to take out the Broken God Slaying Sword when he heard Ye Xiao's shout. He turned to look and saw Ye Xiao pointing a small boulder.

Although he did not know what Ye Xiao wanted to do but believed that Ye Xiao will not tell him anything that will waste both of their times.

Since Ye Xiao had told him to attack with his strongest attack, he immediately took out the God Slaying Sword and found a chance to attack the boulder.

"Transversing Shadow Sword, Second Slash!"

"Boom!"

A terrifying slash of sword collided with the boulder and that boulder exploded into countless pieces. Lin Hao was confused seeing that nothing happen but exactly at this moment, a few large waves of wind spread out and along with it hundreds of very terrifying sword slashes spread in every direction.

"This is... Second Slash of the Transversing Shadow Sword! W-What is happening?" Lin Hao was confused as he saw the hundreds of terrifying sword slashes were actually his own strongest attack. He was unable to understand what was going on here.

All the beasts were terrified including the Seventh Grade Magical Beast after feeling the terrifying power of hundreds of sword slashes at once.

Taking advantage of this opportunity when no beasts were paying any attention to him or Lin Hao, Ye Xiao arrived in front of Lin Hao and said, "There is no time to waste. Hurry up and close your eyes and don't open your eyes until I tell you to open, and yes, don't resist!"

Lin Hao was still shocked when Ye Xiao arrived in front of him and told him to close his eyes. He instinctively nodded his head and closed his eyes. Ye Xiao put his hand on Lin Hao's shoulder and with a flash, both of them disappeared.

The moment they disappeared, those hundreds of sword slashes collided with all the beasts. There were hundreds of sword slashes and it was impossible to avoid all of them.

An explosion rang out as the beasts were sent flying while their body was cut into countless pieces. Although Seventh Garde Magical Beast's power was great, but still, it was not strong enough to resist all these many terrifying sword slashes at once.

A few moments later, Ye Xiao and Lin Hao, both of them once again appeared at their previous place, and at this moment, Ye Xiao said, "Now, you can open your eyes!"

Hearing this, Lin Hao opened his eyes and was surprised to see the scene in front of him. This entire area was filled with blood and pieces of body parts of the magical beasts. There was not a single intact corpse of magical beasts that could be seen here.

What surprised him, even more, was that the Seventh Grade Magical Beast was also no exception. Its body was also cut into three parts but the most shocking thing was that it was still alive.

"This beast is really very tenacious. It did not die even when its body is cut into three parts!" Ye Xiao muttered in a low voice when he saw the Seventh Grade Magical Beast was still alive.

"Just... what happened here?" Lin Hao still could not believe what he saw in front of him.

Previously, when he saw the hundreds of sword slashes of his strongest technique, Second Slash of the Transversing Shadow Sword, he was already very shocked. He was also a little scared because these slashes were not directed at only beasts. He and Ye Xiao were also in the range of this attack.

When he closed his eyes and Ye Xiao put his hand on his shoulder, he felt spatial fluctuation around him just like when he used the transportation formation to transport somewhere.

He did not know what Ye Xiao was doing but he did not open his eyes because he promised Ye Xiao. In the next moment of when he felt the spatial fluctuation, he felt a vast amount of very pure spirit energy in his surrounding but before he could ask anything to Ye Xiao, he once again felt spatial fluctuation around him and then heard Ye Xiao saying him to open his eyes.

Ye Xiao did answer Lin Hao, he only said, "First of all, kill this beast and recover. I will tell you slowly after that!"

Lin Hao nodded his head and slashed at the neck of that Seventh Grade Magical Beast, chopping it off from its body, killing the beast in the spot.

After killing the beast, Lin Hao sat down cross-legged and was about to circulate his cultivation technique when he saw Ye Xiao throwing something at him.
