Fighting: Practice makes it real, start with a poisonous body.

Chapter 265 Lie again
"How come you have a second one!"

High in the sky, Soul Emperor and Gu Yuan were frozen in place as if under a spell, two drops of cold sweat sliding down their foreheads and landing on the rubble below.

Su Yun's lips curled into a cold smile: "Who do you think my teacher is?"

It might not be easy for an ordinary emperor to leave behind the resources to suppress a clan, but with your abilities, teacher, is it really that difficult to create a few Sword Emperor jade slips?

Gu Yuan's expression grew increasingly terrified, his heart filled with turmoil.

It must be admitted that Su Yun's words were not empty boasts. The Sword Emperor's power was already widely acknowledged.

In ancient times, it could chase and kill the Dragon-Phoenix Fighting Emperor, and its Morning Light Sword Technique could even cut through the dimensional barrier... Compared to the former, the direct fear brought by the latter shocked everyone even more!

The seven ancient clans... and the Xiao clan's first ancestor to become an emperor, in the ancient records of the eight clans, none of them have ever been able to achieve the feat of breaking through the boundary with a single sword!

The Sword Emperor's strength has long surpassed their understanding of the Dou Di!
The Soul Emperor's eyes flickered as he stared at the jade slip in Su Yun's hand.

Compared to the overwhelming imperial might that the first jade slip possessed when it was activated, this jade slip was utterly unremarkable, showing no energy fluctuations whatsoever, as if it were just an ordinary piece of jade...

However, if one is true, who dares to say the other is false... Even someone as courageous as him wouldn't dare to gamble!
For a time, the two sides were in a strange standoff, neither of them taking the initiative to break the deadlock.

"Gulu!"

Xiao Yan stood behind Su Yun, his Adam's apple bobbing as he quietly swallowed.

Father, like son.

He could tell that the ancestor's jade slip was probably fake!

In order to withstand the aftershocks of the sword intent, Soul Emperor and Gu Yuan were already seriously injured. Just now, in order to intercept the source energy, the two of them forcibly activated their battle qi, which made their injuries even worse.

At this moment, let alone the second True Jade Slip, even if a third peak Nine-Star Dou Sheng appeared, they could easily reap the benefits and capture the two of them!
If this jade slip were genuine, the Ancestor would have activated it without hesitation long ago, eliminating these two major threats in one fell swoop! But the Ancestor has hesitated, and the answer is already obvious…

"What should we do now?"

Xiao Xuan sighed inwardly, realizing he had the same thought as Xiao Yan.

Although the Soul Emperor and Gu Yuan lost their composure due to the intimidation of the first jade slip, both of them were old foxes who had lived for thousands of years and were by no means easy to deal with.

At first, they might panic due to the threat to their lives, but as time goes on, they will inevitably calm down and realize that something is wrong. The longer it drags on, the worse it will be for them!

Sure enough, a quarter of an hour later, their gazes began to change. Their fear gradually faded, replaced by scrutiny and suspicion!
"Xiao Jibai, why aren't you making a move?"

The Soul Emperor narrowed his eyes slightly.

Gu Yuan grinned maliciously and said, "Yes, the Sword Emperor's Jade Slip is precious, but given your hatred for us, I doubt you'd be stingy with it, would you?"

A strange smile crept into Su Yun's heart, but on the surface he frowned and said calmly, "Although my teacher's jade slip is for my protection, his greatest expectation is that I will use it to deal with the beast race."

"Using one is already a waste against you all; if I use a second one, the teacher will probably scold me..."

Upon hearing this, Soul Emperor and Gu Yuan exchanged a glance, both seeing the smile in each other's eyes.

"An excuse? This jade slip is clearly fake!"

Gu Yuan snorted coldly and said, "Xiao Jibai, stop pretending. I've seen through your tricks!"

"Oh?"

Su Yun asked indifferently, "You want to try?"

"Humph!"

Gu Yuan looked at the Soul Emperor with an icy expression and said, "Soul Emperor, the Xiao Clan and the Soul Clan are sworn enemies. You must really want to deal with this little beast yourself. I'll give you this rare opportunity."

The Soul Emperor glanced coldly at Gu Yuan and said, "Go ahead and do it. What does it have to do with me?" Gu Yuan's expression turned ugly. This old man wasn't falling for it!
Admittedly, the Sword Emperor Jade Slip in Xiao Jibai's possession is most likely fake!

Even if he was 99% sure, he wouldn't dare take that 1% risk!
Just then, an old figure emerged from the ruins of the ancient realm.

"Clan leader, Soul Emperor, what are you still hesitating for!"

Gu Dao's face turned cold as he said, "This little thing is definitely putting on an act. Now is the perfect opportunity to capture him and interrogate him about the Sword Emperor's legacy!"

After evacuating the remaining people of the Ancient Realm, Gu Dao rushed back. He had been observing for a long time and believed that he had seen through Xiao Jibai's true nature. He was certain that Xiao Jibai was already at his limit and was only putting on a brave front and being cowardly now!
"Ancient Road, you've come at the perfect time!"

Gu Yuan's eyes lit up, and he burst out laughing: "In order to intercept the source energy, the two of us forcibly activated our power, and now we are seriously injured and unable to move."

This golden opportunity to revitalize our ancient clan and seize the Sword Emperor's legacy is now in your hands!

"it is good!"

Gu Dao's eyes lit up instantly, his gaze fixed intently on Su Yun, and his face revealed undisguised greed.

"Little thing, you can fool others, but you can't fool this old man!"

Your jade slip has no imperial power whatsoever; it's just a fake to fool people!

"Hand over the Sword Emperor's legacy obediently!"

As soon as he finished speaking, Gu Dao frantically gathered all his holy power, transforming it into a giant golden hand that blotted out the sky and the sun, carrying the power to suppress everything, and slammed down on Su Yun's head!

However, facing the terrifying onslaught, Su Yun slowly smiled faintly: "Imperial Might, isn't that simple?"

"System, manifest a trace of Dou Di aura and inject it into the jade slip!"

[Ding, host needs detected!]

[To manifest a trace of Dou Di aura, 1000000 Realization Points are required. Manifest now?]

"Reveal!"

[Ding! Successful deduction of Realization Points, Dou Di aura materializing...]

[Successfully materialized! The aura of a Dou Di has been infused into the target jade slip!]

Almost the instant the system notification sounded, the ancient jade slip in Su Yun's hand suddenly unleashed its supreme power!
"Boom--!"

The sky darkened instantly, the churning spatial storm was forcibly flattened, and the earth trembled violently!

That aura was like an emperor who had been asleep for billions of years awakening, spreading out with a domineering pressure that looked down on the world!
The terrifying pressure of a Dou Di permeated the ancient ruins as if it were a tangible force, causing everyone present to widen their eyes!

"Wow, it's actually true!"

Xiao Yan's eyes almost popped out of their sockets.

The legacy left by the Sword Emperor is far more profound than they imagined!

"We were all wrong."

Xiao Xuan's remnant soul hovered in mid-air, a relieved smile on his face. He looked at Su Yun's back, his eyes filled with satisfaction.

This child is not only brave and resourceful, but also holds such a trump card. The Xiao clan's revival is in sight!

"How can this be!"

The ancient road stood frozen in mid-air, its body trembling uncontrollably, unable to advance or retreat.
