Chapter 585 - Advancement at the Last Minute, the Number One Genius in the Starry Skies! (1/2)

…

Su Yulong and the others were all reduced to ashes by that sword ray.

Xuanyuan Long and the others immediately heaved a sigh of relief.

If they were to face those few Godly Emperors head-on, there would probably be quite a lot of trouble and losses.

However, very quickly, their emotions tensed up once again.

That was because they had already thought of a problem.

That sword strike was definitely made by Ye Xiao in order to protect them.

If Ye Xiao had protected them. What about himself?

He was originally fighting a stalemate with the seven ninth-level Godly Emperors. If he took the time to save them, it was very likely that his battle rhythm would be disrupted.

With that, he would have no way to maintain his balance.

Everyone hurriedly looked at the screen that the Phoenix Grand Elder had projected. In the next second, their hearts tightened.

As expected!

Ye Xiao had already been blasted to the ground by one of the ninth-level Godly Emperors. What was even more terrifying was that the other Godly Emperors did not stop either. They followed and bombarded him repeatedly.

Countless powers shot wildly. Divine light filled the sky, and killing intent could be transmitted to a distance of 10,000 miles.

Even though they were so far away, they could still feel the terrifying pressure that came from the depths of their souls.

The bombardment lasted for a full ten breaths before it stopped!

One had to know that in ten breaths, to the ninth-level Godly Emperors, the frequency of each person’s attack had already exceeded hundreds of thousands of times!

“Ye Xiao!”

Xuanyuan Long and the others’ hearts tightened. They clenched their fists, and tears filled their eyes once again.

It was all because they were useless. They could not provide any help to Ye Xiao at that critical moment. In the end, they had even become his burden.

At that moment, the entire small world had already been blasted into a pile of dust by the powerful strength of the seven ninth-level Godly Emperors. In the starry sky, it formed a dense cloud of smoke and dust.

That dense cloud of smoke and dust. Even the Phoenix Grand Elder’s Supreme Bright Phoenix Mirror was unable to see what was happening inside.

Everyone could only see that the seven ninth-level Godly Emperors had stopped their attacks and were standing in the starry sky.

“This guy should be dead.”

“Is there even a need to say that? He must be dead. He has endured so many attacks, and it’s two levels higher! It’s impossible for him to hold on.”

“That might not be the case, right? He has so many tricks up his sleeve. Don’t forget that he still has the Undying masterpiece technique! The Undying masterpiece technique is an existence that can resurrect from the dead.”

“Forget it. With such a powerful attack, so what if he has the Undying masterpiece technique? He’s only at the seventh-level Godly Emperor realm! The seventh-level Godly Emperor realm!

“His strength is always displayed here. It doesn’t mean that you can achieve godly techniques just by cultivating a masterpiece technique. No matter how godly the techniques are, there is a limit.”

…

At that moment, a few ninth-level Godly Emperors on the battlefield were also watching the dust.

“Have we killed him?”

“I don’t know. However, from the situation just now, theoretically speaking, it’s impossible for him to have any chance to turn the tables. He will definitely die.

“But, who knows?”

“Forget it. We should think of a way to clear away all the dust first. As long as there’s nothing blocking our sight, he won’t be able to hide his figure. Then, we will know what’s going on.”

“Alright! This old man’s Imperial Wind masterpiece technique is best in this case. Let this old man handle it.”

As he spoke, Godly Emperor Xu Wu, a ninth-level Godly Emperor from the Four Elephants god clan, stepped forward and prepared to make his move.

However, at that moment, an incident suddenly occurred.

The other Godly Emperor behind him shouted loudly,

“Something’s not right. Brother Xu, quickly retreat!”

However, it was too late.

Almost at the same time as he shouted, a sword ray tore through the dust and penetrated Godly Emperor Xu Wu’s chest.

It took his life!

The magnificence of that sword made everyone’s heart palpitate. Their pupils constricted as if someone was gripping their hearts.

“How is this possible?”

Everyone present let out a fierce scream.

One had to know that Ye Xiao had just endured such a fierce attack. It was impossible that he did not have any injuries on his body.

Since he was injured, how could he possibly unleash such a fierce attack to the point of instantly killing a ninth-level Godly Emperor?

However, very quickly, someone discovered that there was something fishy about it. Immediately, they could not help but exclaim loudly,

“Something’s not right! That sword attack of his is several times stronger than all the attacks he released previously! If he had merely condensed his power, even if he was not injured, it would be impossible for him to unleash such a powerful attack.

“It’s him who has advanced! He has advanced!

“He has already reached the realm of an eighth-level Godly Emperor!”

“That’s impossible, right? Advancing during a battle and to such a powerful realm. Do you think that this is something as simple as eating and drinking?”

Suddenly, the dust and smoke had completely receded. Ye Xiao’s figure and aura were also completely revealed.

At that moment, everyone could not help but suck in a breath of cold air.

Ye Xiao had actually advanced!
