Chapter 485: Lets Die Together
Chapter 485: Let\'s Die Together
They had no way to retreat.
When the middle-aged man\'s voice fell, hundreds of people rushed toward Ye Guan.
The Eternal Night Array had suppressed thirty percent of their strength; they were still extremely formidable. The moment they attacked, the star field was reduced to ashes, unable to withstand their power!
Ye Guan\'s figure abruptly became illusory. Moments later, a kaleidoscope of sword lights erupted as Ye Guan slashed out—Heavenrend: Space Overlap!
The faces of the Time Reversers changed drastically.
They wanted to retreat, but it was already too late.
Swish...
Thousands of sword lights converged in one point, obliterating a dozen or so Time Reversers at once. The immense power forced the remaining hundred or so Time Reversers into a rapid retreat!
A single sword had forced over a hundred Time Reversers to retreat!
Ye Jun\'s expression became extremely solemn, and he was shaken deep inside. He knew that Ye Guan was powerful, but he didn\'t expect him to be this strong. Ye Jun reckoned that Great Destiny Sovereigns were mere ants before Ye Guan.
And Ye Jun was right—Great Destiny Sovereigns were indeed ants before Ye Guan!
Ye Guan\'s sword cultivation realm was at half-step Divine, and he also had the Phoenix Emperor Bloodline as well as Xuanyuan. Most importantly, Ao Qianqian had merged with him, and she was a formidable Great Destiny Sovereign herself!
Ao Qianqian shared her cultivation base and her fleshly body\'s physical strength and defense. In other words, Ye Guan\'s combat prowess was off the charts at the moment!
The middle-aged man at the helm revealed a grim expression upon seeing Ye Guan annihilated so many Time Reversers in just one move.
"Watch out!" the middle-aged man roared and transformed into a beam of black light that shot toward Ye Guan in the distance. The rest of the Time Reversers followed closely behind the middle-aged man.
Ye Guan remained steadfast. He sheathed Xuanyuan and took a stance before drawing out Xuanyuan, slashing out fiercely toward the oncoming enemies.
Hum!
A resonant sword hum erupted like thunder, and a radiant ten-thousand-meter-long sword light burst out of Ye Guan.
Boom!
The middle-aged man at the helm was blasted tens of kilometers away, while the dozens of Time Reversers beside him suffered the same fate. Some of them had it worse, as they couldn\'t withstand the sword slash and were annihilated.
Ye Guan\'s one sword move was incomparably dazzling, tyrannical, and forceful!
The middle-aged man revealed a bewildered expression. He couldn\'t quite understand what was going on.
Meanwhile, Ye Guan was being attacked from all directions. He had repelled many of the Time Reversers, but the Time Reversers at the rear managed to avoid taking the brunt of Ye Guan\'s attack, allowing them to charge at Ye Guan.
Soon, the Time Reversers revealed incredibly grim expressions. They realized that Ye Guan was actually resisting all of their attacks head-on!
However, Ye Guan wasn\'t actually the one taking the brunt of their attacks; it was Ao Qianqian. She had inherited the legacy of the Ancestral Dragon, and it allowed her to withstand nearly ninety percent of the attacks for Ye Guan.
It was a good thing that Ao Qianqian had achieved a pretty high level in the inheritance of the Ancestral Dragon, or she wouldn\'t have been able to withstand such powerful attacks.
Hum!
A resonant sword hum echoed, and a golden light burst out from the center of the middle. Space shattered and collapsed inch by inch, annihilating everything in its path. It was an incredibly terrifying sight.
Some of the Time Reversers around Ye Guan were blasted away by the sudden burst of power. The remaining Time Reversers revealed incredibly grim expressions. They were hesitant to advance because Ye Guan\'s sword aura was simply too powerful for them to withstand.
Ye Guan just had to swing his sword, and one of them would die.
The leader of the Time Reversers, the middle-aged man in the distance, had an incredibly grim expression as well. He hadn\'t expected that the young swordsman would subdue hundreds of Time Reversers!
Wasn\'t there a report saying that Ye Guan was a mere Great Destiny Sovereign?
Could there be such an extraordinary Great Destiny Sovereign?
Ye Guan\'s aura was still surging crazily.
His Phoenix Emperor Bloodline had also been amplified by Xuanyuan, and his bloodline power had multiplied severalfold. In addition, the fusion between Ao Qianqian and Ye Guan also led to a qualitative leap in Ye Guan\'s strength!
Ye Guan gripped Xuanyuan tightly; he felt endless power surging within him. A hint of ferocity flashed in his eyes, and he vanished into thin air, reappearing in front of the distant Time Reversers.
The Time Reversers\' faces darkened upon seeing that Ye Guan had taken the initiative to attack them. The Time Reversers were furious—Ye Guan was clearly disrespecting them!
The middle-aged man\'s expression turned fierce. "Kill!"
The middle-aged man was already flying toward Ye Guan even before his words could finish echoing in the air. The middle-aged man knew that someone had to take the lead, or no one would dare to step forward.
The middle-aged man was right.
The rest of the Time Reversers charged out with him upon seeing him take the lead.
A cacophonous din of shouts, curses, and rumbling noises echoed as a violent tremor ran across the ruined star field.
Ye Guan showed no traces of fear in the face of hundreds of Time Reversers. He swung Xuanyuan, unleashing streams of golden sword energy toward the Time Reversers.
However, the Time Reversers had learned from their mistakes and were no longer willing to fight Ye Guan head-on.
They worked together, engaging Ye Guan with a hit-and-run tactic.
The more powerful Time Reversers would suppress Ye Guan, while the weaker ones would attack Ye Guan from his flank and rear. Their teamwork was so smooth that Ye Guan was starting to struggle against them.
Of course, it wasn\'t exactly a strange sight. He was outnumbered, after all.
However, Ao Qianqian\'s support allowed Ye Guan to wield his sword and fight despite the Time Reversers\' powerful and incessant attacks. If it hadn\'t been for Ao Qianqian, Ye Guan would have collapsed long ago.
There were just too many Time Reversers!!
A deafening noise echoed as a fist imprint struck Ye Guan in the chest, blasting him at least a few kilometers away. The Time Reversers saw that and immediately took advantage of the opportunity, chasing after the flying Ye Guan to attack him.
Ye Guan was instantly inundated by attacks, and when he finally managed to land, a black spear made a beeline for him. Ye Guan\'s pupils constricted. The black spear carried immense power that seemed capable of destroying an entire star field by itself.
Ye Guan had to either dodge or block the oncoming spear; he couldn\'t afford to take a breather!
Ye Guan immediately made up his mind and slashed out—three Heavenrends with one thousand and two hundred stacks each, condensed into three Space Overlaps and compressed into one sword move!
BOOM!
The black spear shattered, and the unfortunate Time Reverser who had thrown the spear was obliterated in an instant. However, the sword slash retained a ton of strength as it flew toward the Time Reversers in the distance, forcing them to retreat tens of kilometers away.
Ye Guan could finally take a breather. A pale golden armor made out of scales had enveloped Ye Guan at some point, and the pale golden armor emitting a dazzling, radiant light was none other than the Ancient Heavenly Dragon Armor!
Technically, the armor was Ao Qianqian\'s flesh protecting Ye Guan.
Ye Guan wiped away the blood from the corner of his mouth and muttered, "Qianqian..."
Ao Qianqian replied, "I\'m fine."
Ye Guan closed his eyes slowly and took a stance with Xuanyuan.
A powerful sword intent boiled within him.
"Attack!" the middle-aged man roared. He immediately transformed into a streak of light that shot toward Ye Guan. Meanwhile, the other Time Reversers charged at Ye Guan as well.
Ye Guan\'s eyes shot wide open, and his flesh became both ethereal and illusory.
The middle-aged man\'s pupils constricted at the sight.
Ye Guan was about to unleash a terrifying sword move once again.
However, the middle-aged man dared not to flinch! If the young man were to scare him away, he would find himself plagued by inner demons. Moreover, it would be humiliating for them to cower before the young man when the latter was alone, and there were even hundreds of them.
To make matters worse, their cultivation bases were exceedingly higher than Ye Guan\'s cultivation base!
The other Time Reversers didn\'t retreat as well, and they shared the same thought as the middle-aged man. They knew that they couldn\'t retreat.
A kaleidoscope of sword lights erupted from Ye Guan, and Ye Guan slashed out once more with the same sword move earlier.
Boom!
Ye Guan\'s sword blasted dozens of Time Reversers away, and their fleshly bodies burned like paper as they flew across the starry sky. They had yet to land, but their fleshly bodies had already disintegrated into dust.
Unfortunately, Ye Guan\'s sword failed to repel every single Time Reverser, and those who somehow managed to dodge Ye Guan\'s attack transformed into terrifying beams of light that charged at Ye Guan.
Boom!
Terrifying explosions echoed one after another as Ye Guan was forced back tens of kilometers away in an instant. The Time Reversers didn\'t give Ye Guan any chance to even breathe as they charged toward the latter.
"AAAAH!" Ye Guan roared and charged at the oncoming enemies.
He gripped Xuanyuan as tightly as he could before throwing it at a group of Time Reversers ahead of him. Those Time Reversers were horrified, and they hurriedly dodged to the side.
Boom!
Ye Guan\'s sword carved a demarcating line in the star field itself, separating Ye Guan from the Time Reversers.
Ye Guan came to a halt and took a moment to inspect himself. The Ancient Heavenly Dragon Armor Ye Guan had already shattered into pieces, and blood flowed down the corners of his mouth.
Ye Guan exclaimed, "Qianqian!"
Ao Qianqian\'s reply came belatedly as she exclaimed, "I\'m fine!"
Ye Guan shut his bloodshot eyes and urged, "Come out!"
"No—Cough!"
Ye Guan growled angrily, "Hurry up and come out!"
Ao Qianqian didn\'t reply.
"You—" Ye Guan started.
However, Little Pagoda\'s frightened voice echoed. "Watch out!"
Swoosh!
A silver spear tore through the air and made a beeline for Ye Guan\'s face.
Ye Guan\'s expression changed drastically, as the silver spear was emitting an aura that was only slightly weaker than Diyi Ling\'s aura. In other words, the owner of the silver spear was a supreme elite roughly on the same level as Diyi Ling!
Ye Guan turned around upon sensing Ao Qianqian behind him. Ao Qianqian rushed to block the spear for Ye Guan, but Ye Guan grabbed her right hand and pulled her behind him.
Shwik!
The silver spear pierced Ye Guan\'s abdomen, tearing a hole in Ye Guan\'s torso before continuing its flight toward Ao Qianqian\'s abdomen. However, Ye Guan grabbed the silver spear with his bare hands and stopped it forcefully.
After a fierce struggle, the silver spear stopped just an inch away from Ao Qianqian\'s abdomen.
Ye Guan stared at the stunned Ao Qianqian in front of him and grinned as blood flowed down his lips. "If someone has to die, then it\'s gonna be me..."
Ao Qianqian looked as if she had been struck by lightning, but she recovered quickly and forced Ye Guan to let go of the spear, allowing it to pierce her stomach. Then, she hugged Ye Guan tightly and whispered, "If someone has to die, then let\'s die together..."
