Chapter 260 – Break! Break! Break! (1/2)
Right when the wave of energy was about to hit the spectators, Li Si appeared here once more, and he waved his right hand lightly as he gazed at the terrifying wave of energy that was sweeping over, causing the waves of energy to instantly and mysteriously vanish on the spot. After that, he shot a glance at Yang Ye and Yuan Tong before his figure flashed and vanished on the spot.
After the wave of energy vanished, all the spectators recovered from their shock, and then they hurriedly gazed at Yang Ye and Yuan Tong!
At this moment, both Yang Ye and Yuan Tong were in a slightly embarra.s.sing state. The terrifying wave of energy had caused their clothes to be in rags. Especially Yuan Tong because countless dense marks of the sword had appeared on the clothes he wore. Even though it was like that, Yuan Tong hadn’t suffered any material harm!
Yang Ye hadn’t suffered any material harm as well. Of course, it was because his physical defenses were formidable.
As he gazed at the dense marks of the sword that covered his clothes, Yuan Tong’s expression became unsightly. He raised his head to gaze at Yang Ye before he said, “Since I advanced into the First Heaven Realm, it’s the first time a profounder at the same realm of cultivation has put me in such an embarra.s.sing state. Needless to say, you’ve succeeded in infuriating me. You’ll pay for this with your life!”
Yang Ye’s brows raised as he said, “Why don’t you give it a try?”
Yuan Tong’s eyes narrowed slightly when he heard this, and then killing intent flashed within them. After that, he took a step forward, and the ground that he stepped on instantly split apart while he raised his hands. Suddenly, a violent gale appeared out of thin air. At the same time, his body suddenly seemed like a vortex, and it made the energy in the surrounding world to start surging towards him without end!
“He’s drawing upon the energy of the heavens and the earth! It’s a Heaven Rank technique! My G.o.d! Yuan Tong actually intends to execute a Heaven Rank technique!” Someone amongst the spectators in the surroundings had cried out involuntarily upon witnessing this scene.
On the wall of the Imperial Palace, the frown on Qing Yun’zi’s face had eased up, and it wasn’t covered in worry anymore. He smiled as he said in a low voice, “This Yang Ye really is pretty strong to be able to force Yuan Tong to execute a Heaven Rank technique of my Origin School!”
On the other hand, Cai Feng smiled without trying to cover it up at all. A Heaven Rank technique. That isn’t something an Earth Rank technique can compare to. Yang Ye is definitely dead this time!
Yu Heng and Su Qings.h.i.+ frowned simultaneously instead. They were naturally aware of the might possessed by a Heaven Rank technique, and it was countless times stronger than an Earth Rank technique. So, how could Yang Ye resist a Heaven Rank technique?
The energy around Yuan Tong grew denser and denser. In the end, it actually seemed material. Yuan Tong roared with laughter, and then he gazed at Yang Ye who stood in front of him and said, “Yang Ye, receive a move of mine as well!”
As soon as he finished speaking, Yuan Tong took another step forward, and then he raised his right hand and pointed a finger towards Yang Ye. “Calamity Point!”
As soon as he spoke, the clouds in the sky above the square had suddenly started roiling, and then a few bolts of lightning suddenly appeared amidst the clouds. Subsequently, an extremely enormous finger gradually appeared from within the clouds, and the others in the surroundings couldn’t help but tremble at the instant that this enormous finger appeared.
As he gazed at the enormous finger, Yang Ye’s expression had turned extraordinarily solemn. He was able to sense the terrifying energy contained within the enormous finger. Even if his physical body had been cultivated to an inconceivable state, he would probably be transformed into mush if he was struck by this enormous finger!
As she gazed at the enormous finger appearing from the clouds, Su Qings.h.i.+’s beautiful brows had knit together, and her fair finger trembled slightly while the profound energy within her body had started to circulate swiftly.
Qing Yun’zi seemed to have sensed the unusual movement of profound energy within Su Qings.h.i.+, and he glanced at her before the profound energy within his body started circulating as well. Even though Yang Ye wasn’t a match for Yuan Tong, if he were to fall into the Sword Sect’s hands, then the Sword Sect would definitely be able to rise to prominence in the future. So, he felt that it was best for Yang Ye to die!
“Should we rescue him?” Bai Qi gazed at Yang Ye as he spoke in a low voice.
A wisp of hesitation flashed in Li Si’s eyes, but he shook his head in the end, and he said, “4th level Sword Intent while below the age of 20. He can really be considered as a genius in the Sword Dao. However, it’s insufficient to make us break the rules for him. As I said before, our Grand Qin Empire will definitely save him if he’s able to obtain the 1st position on the Ascension Rankings!”
Bai Qi shook his head lightly and said, “This Heaven Rank technique isn’t something he can resist. Unless he possesses a Heaven Rank technique as well. However, he still hasn’t executed one until now. Obviously, he doesn’t!”
Li Si didn’t say anything else.
On the battlefield, the extremely enormous finger carried terrifying might and emanated immense pressure as it descended straight down towards Yang Ye. Because the energy contained within it was truly too terrifying, the ground around Yang Ye had actually started to collapse inch by inch when it was over 100m away from the ground….
On the other hand, as the target of the enormous finger, Yang Ye had actually slowly closed his eyes at this moment.
The countless spectators in the surroundings were stunned when they witnessed this scene. Does Yang Ye intend to surrender? Even if he wants to surrender, he should shout that he admits defeat and not act in this way. Could it be that he wants to throw his life away?
Under the puzzled and bewildered gazes of countless others in the surroundings, the enormous finger arrived less than 3m above Yang Ye. Right at this moment, Yang Ye’s eyes suddenly opened, and two sword lights flashed in the depths of them. At the same time, Yang Ye drew his sword and stabbed it directly at the enormous finger, causing a golden strand of sword qi to shoot out explosively!
“Break!” Along with this loud shout from Yang Ye, the golden strand of sword qi had instantly shot at the center of the enormous finger, and then it shook slightly under the astounded gazes of everyone. After that, a bang resounded as the enormous finger exploded apart!
Everyone was dumbstruck!
A Heaven Rank technique was destroyed just like that? That’s a Heaven Rank technique! A Heaven Rank technique! But it vanished with a casual wave of Yang Ye’s hand? At this moment, the minds of countless people had gone blank.
On the walls of the Imperial Palace, all the great figures there had frowned. Obviously, even they couldn’t figure out how Yang Ye had destroyed the Heaven Rank technique with a single strike of his sword!
At this moment, Li Si and Bai Qi had frowned as well. Because destroying a Heaven Rank technique with a single strike of the sword was really too unusual.
