In front of Yi Yun, Shen Tu Nantian slowly walked towards him. His facial expression was the sinisterness and ruthlessness Yi Yun was familiar with.
Every step he took was abound with murderous intent. It was extremely oppressive.
Yi Yun held his breath as he clenched the Blood Red Lotus in his hands tightly.
“Haha! You still want to struggle?” Shen Tu Nantian unsheathed a sword and pointed the tip right at Yi Yun’s eyes. “Yi Yun, I have been waiting for this opportunity all this while. I have finally waited for this day. I will cripple you of your martial arts and imprison you. I’ll use the most merciless techniques in this world to torture you!”
“Oh?”
One of Yi Yun’s eyebrow ticked up. He was extremely sharp with his perception. He realized that the Shen Tu Nantian in front of him may be exact in terms of speech and looks to the one in his memory, but…he was lacking something. That was, he was lacking the real Shen Tu Nantian’s strength.
The “Shen Tu Nantian” in front of him may have been emitting tremendous murderous intent and aura, but his strength could be barely estimated by Yi Yun. He was much weaker than the Shen Tu Nantian he knew.
This was just an illusion?
This thought flashed past Yi Yun’s mind. He opened his energy vision and with that realized that the person in front of him wasn’t human, but was a figure of light formed completely from energy.
“So this is the second trial’s test.”
The Great Empress mystic realm did not have memory of Shen Tu Nantian, so the only explanation was that the Great Empress mystic realm had used Yi Yun’s memories to form a phantom image of Shen Tu Nantian.
The person who appeared in this trial was the cultivator’s mental demon!
Although Shen Tu Nantian was not considered a mental demon of Yi Yun, Yi Yun had to admit that back in the Tai Ah Divine Kingdom, everything that Shen Tu Nantian did to Jiang Xiaorou and to him made him feel tremendous hate for Shen Tu Nantian. Back then, he had sworn to kill Shen Tu Nantian.
And Shen Tu Nantian’s continuous threats of crippling Yi Yun of his cultivation and imprisoning him to torture him was quite a terrifying matter.
In the energy vision, the phantom Shen Tu Nantian had no weaknesses. Yi Yun could not use any tricks for this was a battle based on actual skill.
Yi Yun did not know the profoundness of the Great Empress mystic realm. He was not sure if it could display a portion of Shen Tu Nantian’s real strength. If it could, Yi Yun wanted to see what skills Shen Tu Nantian had.
At this moment, the phantom Shen Tu Nantian gave off a sinister smile. And the next moment, he disappeared.
His speed was extremely fast. He stabbed with his sword right at Yi Yun’s Dantian!
Shen Tu Nantian’s attack contained a vibrative power. Once he successfully stabbed, Yi Yun’s Dantian would definitely explode. One strike would cripple him of his cultivation.
Danger!
Yi Yun did not know what would happen in real life if his cultivation was crippled in the illusion. He did not dare take the risk. He treated this illusion realm’s battle as a real fight with Shen Tu Nantian. Besides, his opponent’s strength far exceeded his. This meant that he could not go easy at all.
“Boom!”
Behind Yi Yun, Radiant Sun Qi exploded, forming the Tang Valley’s phantom image. Radiant Sun Qi was injected into the Blood Red Lotus in his hand!
The Blood Red Lotus had tasted the blood of countless numbers of people, so it emitted a thick blood Qi to it. Blood was in itself a Yang-elemental object, so this blood Qi mixed with the pure Yang Qi only complemented one another.
Slashing with his saber, a red wave appeared. In the gray space, a blood Sun appeared out of nowhere!
“Chi La!”
Shen Tu Nantian’s sword beam was torn apart. The red saber beam from Yi Yun did not lose its momentum. It stabbed straight into Shen Tu Nantian’s body.
Saber Truth’s 32 Words – Killing At Its Core!
After a long period of training, Yi Yun’s had achieved mastery in the insight gained from the saber tomb. It was perfectly harmonious with his martial Dao.
Besides, using Killing At Its Core with the Blood Red Lotus made the attack even more powerful with the Blood Red Lotus’s killing intent’s support.
Saber beams flashed wantonly as Shen Tu Nantian’s body was slashed. No blood flowed out from his wounds, but replacing blood were numerous Yuan Qi light dots.
Shen Tu Nantian’s body was thrown backwards by a few hundred feet. Even though his body had been penetrated by the saber beam, he still seemed fine.
