On the other end of the battlefield, Ye Yun and Tian Li Xing Wu faced each other.
Relying on their combined powerful strength, they quickly suppressed the black-robed Quasi-Emperor and also killed many True Saints and True Immortals.
Even under Tian Li Xing Wu's exceptionally strong burst, they forcefully defeated this Divine Hall squad together.
Although it took considerable time, they had managed to escape the encirclement for now.
Ye Yun, not forgetting his original intention, wished to take Tian Li Xing Wu with him and flee towards the Heavenly Domain port.
However, at this very moment, a sound of thunder and lightning suddenly erupted from the sky.
Rumble!!!
A monstrous pressure swept towards them.
At the edge of their vision, a streak of azure light shot towards them with unimaginable speed.
"This aura..."
Even from a great distance, the astonishing presence made Ye Yun's expression shift slightly.
This time, even the proud Tian Li Xing Wu's delicate face turned grim.
"It's actually an Emperor-tier cultivator..."
Without a doubt, merely traveling at this speed had caused such a magnificent phenomenon.
Coupled with the aura they felt from afar, it was undoubtedly an Emperor-tier expert!
Almost the instant they sensed the other party, a figure abruptly appeared before them, blocking their path.
"Senior, may I know who you are?"
Ye Yun frowned. Although he knew the other party was most likely an enemy, he still held onto a sliver of hope.
However, his response was a cold voice.
"My imperial title is Zhan Tian, and I am here to kill you."
Zhan Tian Saber Emperor, Feng Chi!
Ye Yun's gaze narrowed, and his eyes trembled as he scrutinized the other party.
An Emperor-tier expert, the true peak of the Heavenly Domain...
Even standing side by side, Ye Yun could feel the oppressive aura emanating from the other party.
That sense of danger gave him a feeling similar to when he faced the Heavenly Dao Divine Hall Master.
Knowing the visitor was hostile, Ye Yun no longer held any illusions. His Xuan Qi surged within him, preparing for a desperate struggle at any moment.
"I advise you not to make any rash moves."
At this moment, Feng Chi glanced at him and said indifferently.
As he spoke, a cold glint flashed on the long saber in his hand.
It seemed as if the moment he moved, he could cut Ye Yun down.
Ye Yun paused, abandoning his plan to ambush, and sighed inwardly.
"After all, an Emperor-tier expert is hard to deal with..."
Against an Emperor-tier expert, even the God Slaying Crossbow would likely have very limited effect.
It wasn't that its power was insufficient, but rather that he had to be able to hit them first...
At this point, Feng Chi's gaze shifted from Ye Yun to Tian Li Xing Wu, scrutinizing her with interest.
"Truly marvelous. Are you the human form of Xing Wu's Heart of Heavenly Dao?"
"That's right, it's this young lady."
Even when facing an Emperor-tier, Tian Li Xing Wu maintained her usual demeanor.
She pointed her sword at Feng Chi and said coldly.
"So, you're also here to kill me?"
"You could say that."
Feng Chi nodded, then said with a hint of regret.
"Once you are killed, even if Xing Wu escapes, she won't be able to reach the Emperor tier in a short time."
"If that weren't the case, this Emperor would truly want to take you back for thorough research."
Upon truly seeing Tian Li Xing Wu, he was inwardly shocked.
He had never expected that the Heart of Heavenly Dao could actually give birth to a human who was exactly like the original, and even seemed to have inherited their abilities.
What would it be like if both of them cultivated to the Emperor tier?
Alas, he would not have the chance to see it.
Tian Li Xing Wu, seeing his regretful expression, simply snorted coldly.
"Aren't you just an Emperor-tier cultivator? This young lady has long wanted to experience one!"
As her voice fell, before Feng Chi could make a move, she proactively attacked him.
"God Slaying Flash!"
Dark sword light, like a blade tearing through time and space.
In an instant, it engulfed in the power of Heavenly Dao and slashed towards Feng Chi.
Wherever the sword light passed, everything in its path was swallowed.
Under her Abyss of Heavenly Dao, anything touched would be completely devoured and converted into a part of herself.
In terms of the effect of Heavenly Dao power, the Abyss of Heavenly Dao was definitely the strongest in the Heavenly Domain.
However, Tian Li Xing Wu was only at the True Immortal realm, and this was not her own power.
She could only unleash a fraction of its might, and it consumed her origin greatly, making it a true life-risking technique.
But when facing an Emperor-tier expert, only a desperate gamble offered a sliver of hope!
"The dignified Abyss of Heavenly Dao, is this all the power you possess?!"
Facing the attack imbued with the power of Heavenly Dao, Feng Chi sneered.
In a flash, the long saber in his hand moved. Azure saber light swept out before him.
The moment he drew his saber, time and space seemed to freeze, with only his upturned lips and the edge of his blade in motion.
"Annihilation of Heavenly Dao, Heavenly Slash!"
The principle of annihilation meant that anything injured by it would turn into a state of deathly stillness and oblivion.
In a way, it was similar to the Heavenly Dao of Destruction contained within Ye Yun's God Slaying Crossbow.
And Heavenly Slash originated from his signature profound technique, the first move of the Four Heavenly Slashes, and was also the weakest.
Yet, this weakest strike, the moment it was unleashed, the saber light that seemed to traverse time and space landed upon Tian Li Xing Wu's attack.
With almost no suspense, under this supreme blade strike.
Tian Li Xing Wu's attack instantly collapsed, and the Abyss of Heavenly Dao completely dissipated.
"This guy..."
Tian Li Xing Wu's eyes narrowed, and she was then sent flying by the saber light.
With a bang!
Amidst a violent explosion, Tian Li Xing Wu's body lost control and flew backward.
Feng Chi would not let this opportunity pass. He retaliated and rushed forward, launching a fatal blow at her.
"Heavenly Second Slash!"
As a pure swordsman, his techniques were not overly flashy or spectacular.
Yet, this strike, which could be described as the ultimate attainment in swordsmanship, appeared simple and unadorned, but contained world-destroying power.
Azure saber light traced a blue line in the air, and in an instant, it was about to pierce Tian Li Xing Wu.
"Alas, there is ultimately no fate in this beautiful world..."
Tian Li Xing Wu watched the approaching saber light, her heart giving up the struggle.
Just the previous strike had made her completely realize that the level of this person before her was far beyond what she could currently compare to.
But just as she was about to accept death, a figure unexpectedly blocked in front of her.
Everything happened in a flash. By the time Tian Li Xing Wu reacted, the figure before her had been struck by Feng Chi's saber. The immense force directly sent him flying, smashing into her at great speed.
With a loud crash, the two slammed heavily onto the ground, creating a large pit.
"Hmm?"
Feng Chi couldn't help but frown, his gaze instantly falling to the ground.
As the dust settled, Tian Li Xing Wu appeared, along with Ye Yun in her embrace.
Clearly, it was Ye Yun who had used his body to block the attack.
Both of them were coughing violently in the pit, but by all appearances, they didn't seem injured.
This scene utterly bewildered Feng Chi.
"He's actually fine? How is this possible?!"
He was absolutely certain that the previous strike had landed squarely on Ye Yun.
That strike contained the principle of annihilation, his near-full power attack, and this guy had withstood it head-on with his body and was completely unharmed???
