Chapter 350 - Ten Thousand Li with One Sword

Su Li’s hand grasped the handle of the umbrella. He did not perform any other actions, but the sword intent already reached areas that were several dozen of li away.

There were no sword rays, nor was there any sword wind. The thin snowflakes floated down slowly, but in the surroundings of the snowy plains, countless shrill sounds appeared. Swoosh swoosh swoosh swoosh! It was the sound of the edge of the sword cutting through space and through armor. It was the sound of the edge of the blade cutting through the powerful bodies of the Demon Generals.

Around the dozen or so mountainous black shadows of the Demon Generals, countless thin white slashes appeared. The cold wind suddenly separated, the heavy armor suddenly shattered and fresh blood spurted out. Some mountainous shadows fell in the snowy plains with a groan, while other mountainous shadows retreated backwards with a roar. There was actually not a single Demon General that remained where they were originally.

Su Li gazed at the snowy hill over ten li away, and looked at Black Robe who currently sat there cross-legged.

The square plate before Black Robe’s body had already become a piece of scrap metal, and on it were densely packed depressions. It did not seem anything like the projection of the Garden of Zhou from before. It was because the square plate had been destroyed that the terrifying explosion occurred before. Even though he was a peerless expert at such a great level, the injuries he received were not light. His clothes were tattered, and he actually seemed to be in a rather sorry shape.

The square plate of the Garden of Zhou was destroyed for some reason, which caused him injury. Feeling that the arrangements in the Garden of Zhou had failed, it made him very hurt. However, what made him feel the most alert and uneasy was the umbrella currently in Su Li’s hands. He had spent a very long time in the arrangements to kill him, for which the demons had sent out countless experts. However, it seemed that problems were about to occur.

If Su Li wanted to stop the assassination the demons had planned, he needed to make another breakthrough in the path of the sword. However, just like he had once said, for an expert of the path of the sword at Su Li’s level, even the great dread of life and death would not be able to help him break through the obstacle that he had not broken through in hundreds of years, unless he received that sword.

Now, that sword had come.

How was this possible? Black Robe looked at the teenager behind Su Li and thought silently. As it turned out, all the changes originated from him.

He recognized the Yellow Paper Umbrella and knew the history of it. He recognized Chen Changsheng and knew the history of him. He was the demon Military Advisor who specialized in schemes the most out of the entire continent, and only needed the control of spiritual sense to deduce the story in the Garden of Zhou, as well as the story after the Garden of Zhou clearly, without a single mistake.

However, no matter how well he deduced it, he was unable to change things that had already happened. He was also unable to make the Yellow Paper Umbrella leave Su Li’s side.

Black Robe stood up, and his slightly blue hands were drawn from his sleeves. It seemed as though he was about to crush all the cold gusts of wind in the snowy plains with his hands.

Su Li looked at him silently.

The two were separated by a dozen li or so.

Su Lu grasped onto the handle of the umbrella, and used a little bit of strength through his fingers.

Only the clear resonance of a sword being drawn could be heard.

A bright sword was drawn from the Yellow Paper Umbrella.

As it turned out, this was the true sword of the Yellow Paper Umbrella.

A sword was always hidden in the Yellow Paper Umbrella.

The sword was not completely drawn.

Only half of the sword appeared before the world.

The wind on the snowy plains suddenly hastened, and the thin snowflakes became countless shapeless swords. They rushed forwards with a whistle, and immediately arrived at the snowy hill over ten li away.

Black Robe lowered his head, and brought his hands together. His blue hands floated slightly, as if he was performing a salute. It guarded his face, and with the black robe that had fallen onto the snow, everything was covered up. An extremely frigid Qi received the snowflakes that were like swords.

Swish swish swish swish! The sound of severing repeatedly resounded on the snowy hill. Countless distinct sword rays appeared in the space around Black Robe.

In the next moment, Black Robe’s legs left the snow. He began to float, and his clothes and body seemed to become weightless. With the windy snow and sword rays, he floated backwards, and disappeared into nothingness.

The sword rays slowly dispersed, the sword resonance slowly grew quiet and the snowy wind slowed down.

A black cloth slowly landed on the snowy plains, and at the same time, a streak of blackish red blood appeared.

From over ten li away, Su Li injured Black Robe with one strike. Although the injuries Black Robe had received from the destruction of the square plate could not be considered light, and although he was not in his peak condition, it could not be forgotten that the sword in Su Li’s hand was not completely drawn from the sheath. There was still half of it hidden in the Yellow Paper Umbrella. Then just how powerful was the strike?

Su Li did not pay any attention to the retreating Black Robe. He looked at the outline of the demon city that could be vaguely seen in the depths of the snowy plains, and looked at the shadow that contained an unlimited amount of pressure and terrifying willpower. The expression on his face become more and more solemn, but his gaze became more and more fanatical. He yelled, “Come battle!”

With a sudden yell that was like a sword resonance, a true sword resonated through the entire snowy plains.

Su Li’s right hand which grasped the handle of the umbrella drew outwards. The sword that gave off cold light appeared.

After hundreds of years, the Heaven Shrouding Sword finally saw light again. The first opponent that it met was the Demon Lord.

With such a return, just how overbearing and unbridled was it?

No matter how wide the sky was, as long as the Heaven Shrouding Sword was placed before the eyes, not even the sky could be seen.

No matter how terrifying the shadow in the sky was, if he did not want to see it, he would not see it.

Su Li’s left hand held onto the Yellow Paper Umbrella, and his right hand casually lifted the Heaven Shrouding Sword. Looking at the shadow in the sky, he had a presence that was able to surprise and overwhelm the world.

Just how powerful and heroic was the person?

Looking at Su Li’s back, Chen Changsheng was emotionally moved and speechless.

He knew that he was about to witness firsthand a battle of the highest level in the past few centuries of the continent. Perhaps he would die very quickly, die from the clashing of the Qi from the battle, or perhaps the two that participated in the battle would not even notice his death at all. However, he did not feel cold, and even felt rather warm.

The warmth originated from his heart, from his blood.

There were always hot-blooded times in a person’s life.

Even though he had just left the Garden of Zhou and was suddenly pulled into a battle that was close to a divine level where he would likely die, he did not care. The journey of the Garden of Zhou indeed was not made in vain. For him to be able to witness such heroic figures, to witness such a peerless sword regain its edge, was life or death really worth mentioning?

At this moment, Chen Changsheng already could vaguely guess who the impressive human expert who stood in front of him was.

When he grasped the sword, several powerful Demon Generals fell.

When he drew half of the sword, Black Robe was heavily injured and retreated far away.
