The Sword God of the Universe

Chapter 2455: Chapter 2455: Bloodstained Heaven and Earth

The strength of this Kang Linyue is slightly stronger than that of the two red-robed killing stars that Jing Yan previously killed, but it’s limited. Overall, there’s no real difference.

However, Kang Linyue knows he is sure to die, so he immediately uses a forbidden technique with immense power. The use of the forbidden technique allows him to gain strength far beyond normal circumstances in a short time, giving him more time. The longer he can delay Jing Yan, the greater the chance for his two companions to escape.

Previously, Jing Yan killed two red-robed killing stars with a single sword stroke. Kang Linyue knows if he doesn’t use the forbidden technique right away, he might not even get the chance to use it. Though using the forbidden technique causes harm to his body, with his life at stake, why care about the harm?

"Burning essence blood? It’s somewhat similar to that Black River Heavenly Monarch’s forbidden technique," Jing Yan frowned.

"The power has increased significantly, but... what can it change?" Jing Yan still sweeps out a single sword stroke.

Kang Linyue’s strength is too disparate from his, and even if he uses a forbidden technique, the result is the same.

The collision of the two people’s power sends Kang Linyue flying backward, although he wasn’t killed by a single sword stroke. After using the forbidden technique, Kang Linyue can withstand one of Jing Yan’s attacks. He spits out several mouthfuls of blood and his eyes turn red, breathing heavily.

"Hahaha... City Lord Jing Yan, your Hongmeng City will be razed to the ground." Kang Linyue’s thoughts are very clear, even severely injured, he still tries to use words to delay more time.

This time, Jing Yan did not say a single word and struck out another sword against Kang Linyue.

To hide his strength, Jing Yan did not even use the High-level Soul Technique Clear Wave. If he used Clear Wave, no matter how strong Kang Linyue’s strength is doubled, he would not withstand Jing Yan’s strike.

During the several thousand years riding the Heavenly Domain Flying Boat out of Faro Heaven, although Jing Yan’s realm did not achieve substantial breakthroughs, his combat power undoubtedly had a huge improvement. Jing Yan did not put all his time and energy into Thunder Attribute Dao Techniques; he has been continually comprehending Dao Techniques in many other aspects. It can be said, Jing Yan’s combat power is much stronger than when he fought with Fire Cloud Immortal Venerable and other powerful figures in Faro Heaven.

Kang Linyue could not withstand Jing Yan’s second sword strike, and his physical body fell in midair, blood spraying.

After killing Kang Linyue, Jing Yan immediately pursued Zhuo Ting and another still living red-robed killing star.

Under the influence of Hongmeng City’s Formation, the escape speed of these two people is much slower than normal.

The Heavenly Gang Yin Yang Reincarnation Array is indeed fierce. Unfortunately, the Heavenly Gang Yin Yang Reincarnation Array is an attack-type formation. If it was a binding-type array, then it would be even harder for the two Zhuo Ting to escape.

"Too strong!"

"Yes, City Lord Jing Yan is too powerful. He has already... consecutively slain three red-robed killing stars! This time, the losses to Yama Palace are tremendous! The death of three red-robed killing stars will also greatly impact Yama Palace, right? There aren’t many red-robed killing stars in Yama Palace."

"It’s not over yet; Lord Jing Yan has already gone to pursue those two surviving red-robed killing stars. Those two red-robed killing stars may not escape."

"Couldn’t have imagined, couldn’t have imagined. After this battle, the reputation of Hongmeng City is really going to resound in the Thunder Domain. No, it will resound in Kunling Heaven’s Heavenly Domain."

Many cultivators, their eyes gleaming.

Some cultivators who have already purchased property in Hongmeng City are somewhat excited. The stronger City Lord Jing Yan is, the more solid Hongmeng City’s position is, and thus their potential benefit will be greater.

The only concern now is that City Lord Jing Yan has killed so many red-robed killing stars, Yama Palace definitely won’t take it lying down. Yama Palace’s retaliation might come soon, right? The Palace Master of Yama Palace is the Heavenly Lord of this domain. How many cards Yama Palace still has, ordinary cultivators simply don’t know; they only know that Yama Palace is the most terrifying force in Kunling Heaven, and there are few individuals or forces in Kunling Heaven who dare to oppose Yama Palace.

Outside the city.

The City Lords of Tianji City, Mystic Underworld City, and Windward City, after a long time, cannot say a word.

In front of them, the law image continues.

They saw the process of Jing Yan killing several red-robed killing stars through the law-condensed image.

Too terrifying!

The new city lord of Mystic Underworld City, at this moment, just feels a bit fortunate. This new City Lord, named Bo Qian, has cultivation at the Immortal Venerable Middle Stage like City Lord Mei Li.

Because City Lord Mei Li offended Jing Yan, she was punished by the Trade Union Headquarters, thus transferred from Mystic Underworld City. Of course, on the surface it’s punishment, but actually, the punishment from the Trade Union Headquarters to Mei Li is just for show since City Lord Mei Li is still a confidant of Elder Gao Zhenjiang.

After the event in Mystic Underworld City, the Trade Union had two choices in dealing with City Lord Jing Yan: one was to apologize and ease the relationship, and the other was naturally to send strong forces to flatten Hongmeng City. Now it seems, the decision made by the higher-ups of the Trade Union was indeed very wise. Judging from the strength City Lord Jing Yan showed, if the Trade Union wanted to flatten Hongmeng City, it would probably have to send all the Immortal Venerable powerhouses it could mobilize. If it merely sent two or three elders at the Immortal Venerable Peak Realm, the result would surely be disastrous.

Bo Qian let out a gentle breath.

"Well..." The City Lord of Tianji City glanced at the two, speaking.

"I’ve seen enough, fellow Daoists. I’ll take my leave first." Tianji City’s City Lord cupped his hands to the two and said.

After the City Lord of Tianji City first leaves, both Bo Qian and the Windward City Lord immediately leave as well.

The events in Hongmeng City are too significant; they need to immediately convey the news back to their respective powers’ headquarters. The headquarters need to re-evaluate the strength of City Lord Jing Yan at Hongmeng City. Against this City Lord Jing Yan, just sending a few cultivators below the Immortal Venerable Peak Realm won’t suffice.

In Yama Palace, five red-robed killing stars were torn apart and bloodied within a few breaths by Jing Yan. In Kunling Heaven’s Heavenly Domain, how many cultivators of the Immortal Venerable Realm can achieve this?

The Trade Union Headquarters.

The President and several elders of the headquarters are gathered in one room.

Previously, when the news from Mystic Underworld City mentioned that five red-robed killing stars from Yama Palace entered Hongmeng City, the President summoned several elders because... there was a great chance Hongmeng City would be razed. If Hongmeng City were to be flattened, they planned to discuss whether the Trade Union could gain some benefits from this matter. Hongmeng City is very close to Mystic Underworld City, the Trade Union’s reach is sufficient.

While casually discussing, news again came from Mystic Underworld City.

And this time, the news dramatically shifted the atmosphere in the room; each person’s face showed expressions of shock.
