Embers of Sword

Chapter 44 Before I Die, I'll Send You Away

"Formation!?"

Jia Liu roared, her eyes bloodshot as she looked at Xie Xuanyi who was standing on the purple bamboo flying sword and looking back.

"Despicable! You actually plotted against me!"

Xie Xuanyi covered his shoulder that was pierced by the blood refining technique, and just stared coldly at the woman from the Tiangui Sect who stepped into the formation, as well as the dead puppets that contained the evil essence and blood.

"Do it!"

Xie Xuanyi transmitted the message.

Deng Baiyi, holding the talisman of the main formation, became the master of this world. Thousands of phoenix fires appeared and condensed in the void!

Jiang Huang, who was sleeping soundly on the top of the mountain, sniffed and smelled a familiar scent.

She opened her eyes in a daze, sat up, and stared at the blazing fire all over the mountains.

On the barren mountain.

Countless phoenix flames were floating in the air, like lotus flowers.

Deng Baiyi held the talisman in one hand in front of his chest, and with the other hand, he put two fingers together and made a sword-like swinging gesture.

Just a light touch.

The whole world seemed to be cut in half——

Countless phoenix fires connected into a long line, which passed by so plainly. Wherever it passed, the grass and leaves were burned and the trees were uprooted. Jia Liu roared and raised his four arms, bearing the pressure of the formation and pressing forward.

Dozens of dead puppets that had no consciousness and only knew how to obey their master's orders rushed towards the long blood-red line like moths to a flame.

"His!"

next moment.

The dead puppet's body was cut into pieces like paper.

The overwhelming sound of tearing paper flooded the top of the mountain like a tide.

Finally the dust has settled.

Silence returned to the top of the mountain.

The wind blows the dry grass, making a rustling sound.

Jialiu lowered his head slowly at an extremely slow pace.

Her eyes were full of confusion.

It's more of fear.

All four arms formed seals to resist, but unfortunately the seal only lasted for a moment, or perhaps even less than a moment.

Her body had been cut in half, the cut was smooth and now emitted a faint burnt smell.

The "blood refining technique" that the Tiangui Sect is best at, has no room to be used at all under the suppression of the Phoenix Fire... Every drop of poisonous blood prepared by Jia Liu was burned into nothingness by the Phoenix Fire, which symbolizes the pure yang in the world. The moment it was sacrificed, it was instantly destroyed.

She looked up with an incomprehensible and unbelievable look at the stunning woman in front of her who was slowly falling to the ground, as dazzling as a god.

Countless phoenix flames swirled around Deng Baiyi, dyeing her snow-white clothes a faint red... Controlling this formation, even for just a moment, consumed most of Deng Baiyi's energy. At this moment, her face was almost as pale as Xie Xuanyi's, but the phoenix fire glow lingering deep in her pupils had not yet dissipated.

Eyes facing each other.

"You... deserve to die."

Deng Baiyi looked down at the ugly, dirty and dark face. Her expression was cold and murderous intent flashed in her eyes.

The hand that was tightly grasping the formation talisman exerted force again.

In the void, wisps of phoenix fire gathered again -

Deng Baiyi raised his trembling arm, ready to point his finger again to completely end the life of the woman who had hurt Xie Zhen.

"……etc."

Xie Xuanyi stretched out his palm and gently pressed her hand.

Deng Baiyi was stunned for a moment.

Xie Xuanyi's voice suppressed her murderous intent.

The warmth from her palm also brought back her rationality.

Deng Baiyi obediently dropped his arms and gently exhaled the murderous intent and depression that were weighing on his chest.

Then, the hundreds of wisps of phoenix fire floating in the void dissipated, and the dazzling light emitted by the formation also disappeared into the long night.

"Don't waste your energy. She's already dead."

Half of Xie Xuanyi's shoulder was covered in blood and his face was as pale as paper.

He resisted the blood refining technique and brought Jia Liu into the game...

This is the only way to kill this Cave Heaven Realm Realm master tonight.

The Tiangui Sect’s corpse refining technique is very powerful. After the dead puppets ambushed in Chenqing Mountain fully awakened, this duel was no longer fair.

Jialiu came to meet me with the intention of killing me.

The only way to break the situation.

In a very short period of time, it unleashed tremendous destructive power, wiping out Jialiu and all the dead puppets.

this kind of thing.

Xie Xuanyi can't do it now...

However, the Nine-Bright Phoenix Fire Refining Void Array can do it.

Jialiu's body had been completely cut off, but the Phoenix Fire's cutting speed was too fast, so she still had a breath left... If Deng Baiyi launched a second attack, even if it was just a blow with the remaining momentum, Jialiu would not be able to withstand it.

This is another life he owes. Jia Liu must die, but not now.

"She's still useful."

Xie Xuanyi patted Deng Baiyi's shoulder gently, indicating that she could have a good rest.

What an excellent formation master has to do is not only to carve the formation, but also to control the formation.

After all, every array pattern on this mountain was carved by Deng Baiyi herself. She knew every wonderful use of this array, and also knew the limit of this array... The real top array pattern masters all personally controlled the array and were in charge of killing. For the same array pattern, the killing power that can be exerted by the person who carved it personally is stronger than that of others!

This was the first time I was in charge of a large formation, and I was able to fit in so well with the formation pattern...

Deng Baiyi's talent in formations is much higher than her talent in cultivation.

Xie Xuanyi came in front of Jialiu.

He smiled and sighed softly, "I said it before, it's a pity that you only know how to refine corpses and not how to carve formations, otherwise it's unknown who will win tonight."

If Jialiu also knew how to set up a large formation to block the space for escaping with the sword.

Then in tonight’s situation at Chenqing Mountain...Xie Xuanyi might be in danger of death.

But there is everything in this world.

There is no if.

"I lost……"

Jialiu spoke slowly with a hoarse voice.

The vertical pupil between her brows slowly closed. This rotten body was being "purified" by the Phoenix Fire. The poisonous blood that was a mixture of dozens of toxins would not go out after being ignited by the Phoenix Fire... On the surface, she still looked "intact", but it wouldn't be long before her whole body would shatter like porcelain.

Her heart will soon turn to ashes.

"I don't understand, what kind of formation is this? And what kind of fire is this?"

Her eyes passed Xie Xuanyi.

It fell on the free sparks floating on the top of the mountain. The phoenix fire all over the mountain had been extinguished. At this moment, there were still faint spots of light floating around, like small flowers, carrying a sense of desolation and loneliness.

When the spark burns out, it no longer gives people a feeling of warmth.

What remains is the endless, cold end.

"This is the Nine Bright Phoenix Fire Refining Void Formation."

Xie Xuanyi slowly transmitted his voice in a voice that only the two of them could hear: "These fires are Phoenix Fires."

"..."

Jialiu looked even more confused.

She had never heard of this formation, but she had heard of Phoenix Fire.

Phoenix Fire...

Is this the kind of Phoenix Fire that I understand?
"Yes... It was the kind of fire you imagined. You deserved your death."

Xie Xuanyi saw through Jialiu's thoughts at a glance and whispered in a low voice.

He stood opposite Jialiu, waiting silently.

He was waiting for the moment when Jialiu's consciousness faded before he died.

After all, the person in front of him is a Cave Heaven Realm cultivator. If he wants to launch a soul search and obtain enough memories, he needs to wait until the safest moment...

"Cough cough..."

After a violent coughing fit.

Jia Liu raised her head, and the scarlet and enchanting vertical pupil had completely closed, which meant that the vitality in her body had been completely eliminated and could not support the opening of the cave. The so-called blood refining technique had become a joke at this moment.

Because her body had been hollowed out by the Phoenix Fire.

Not even a drop of blood left.

How to start blood refining?
But at this moment, Jialiu still had a playful look in her eyes. She looked at Xie Xuanyi's shoulder that she had pierced, and smiled softly, "Although I'm going to die, you're not going to be any better."

"…If you are infected with the Gu blood, you will lose half your life even if you don't die."

Xie Xuanyi didn't say anything, just waited silently.

After a brief silence, Jialiu came back to her senses. She vaguely guessed what the person in front of her was waiting for.

She chuckled softly.

The blood refining technique...is not completely unusable, she still has a little bit of blood.

In this broken head.

"Buzz!"

The vertical pupil that had just closed opened again. Jialiu closed his eyes, blood overflowed from his eye sockets, and instantly flowed down both sides of his cheeks.

This time she just stared at Xie Xuanyi with her vertical pupils——

"Before you die, I will send you off."

Xie Xuanyi had already guessed Jialiu's thoughts.

He stretched out his palm and pressed it on the vertical pupil. His extremely powerful spirit instantly crashed into the heart of this man in the Cave Heaven Realm who was at the end of his energy.

Soul search! Start!
