The Villain Saint is my secondary account

Ella lowered her eyes slightly, but did not panic despite the horrifying signs appearing on her body.

On the other side, Lydia's face, cracked like porcelain, also revealed a sinister smile.

"Hahaha, Ella Hayville, I acknowledge your resilience as a human being."

"Throughout the millennia, even among the beings I devoured during the years when I was not yet of sound mind, you are one of the more interesting ones."

"But unfortunately, you are still some distance from the original body of that remnant soul."

"Humph."

Ella curled her lip and slowly formed a long blade shaped with holy light in her hand. "That's enough to defeat you."

"I am merely an incarnation, a vessel to carry my will to descend into this world."

Lydia gracefully spread her hands, "Even if you can defeat me, as long as you can't bind my will, you're nothing but a speck of dust before my true self above the void."

"Really."

Ella pointed her light blade at Lydia, "I can kill you, and I can cleave that big eyeball in two too."

“Ignorance is fearlessness.”

Lydia sneered, cupping her hands in front of her chest to gather chaotic divine power. "Then try it."

As soon as she finished speaking, she suddenly spread her hands, and dark divine power spread out, instantly enveloping the entire ice field.

Ella lunged forward, and in the next instant, divine power surged, space flickered, and in that instant, the vast snowfield before her was no longer there, and she suddenly lost the sensation of stepping on mud.

Another spatial rift?

She was shocked to find herself stepping into thin air. The six wings that had unfolded behind her instinctively blossomed into a cocoon of light, but they only had time to reflect the space that had instantly collapsed into a singularity.

This time, the darkness she found herself in was deep and vast, not a cave or the seabed. In the absolute silence, Ella heard her own bones making a dangerous creaking sound in the vacuum.

This is no ordinary spatial rift, but a void where even the laws of physics are twisted and collapsing. Countless stellar remnants float in a dimension more distant than eternity, and every star ring flows with liquid shadows.

There is no air, no temperature, and even the perception of time and space is disordered.

This is not in the real world.

Ella immediately realized what was happening, a hint of surprise flashing in her eyes.

"Didn't you say you were going to split my true form in two?"

Lydia's icy voice reverberated directly in Ella's mind. She looked up in astonishment and saw the other person floating in mid-air with her hands outstretched, like a proud divine messenger descending, her eyes filled with endless arrogance.

"Then I'll show you, Ella Haviere."

As her words, amplified by divine power, echoed, what sent shivers down Ella's spine in the boundless darkness was the illusory figure behind Lydia that occupied half the universe.

Tens of thousands of tentacles, larger than nebulae, were slowly unfurling, and at the center where all these writhing behemoths converged, a single, deep red eye, like a frozen blood moon, was silently gazing at her.

This place... is the void.

Chapter 269 Empty Shell and True Self

On the other side, on the present world.

Ye Xiao and Seren, their figures transformed into streaks of light, were leaping among the shattered mountains.

Unlike the fierce battle between two main gods that could leave the world riddled with holes, the clash between swordsmen is more subtle.

But it is equally deadly.

A sharp, murderous intent filled the yellow wind blowing across the mountains, and with each whistle, a flash of blades revealed a mountain peak that had been sliced ​​open.

The dense, intricate cuts have transformed the landscape into a network of crisscrossing valleys, and even the howling sandstorms cannot smooth over the myriad ravines.

"clang"

Another crisp clang of blades clashing echoed across the wilderness. Amidst the chaotic wind, Ye Xiao, covered in mottled wounds, landed on a mountain peak that had been sheared off. His feet, propelled by inertia, left two tracks on the ground before he could barely come to a stop.

He planted the bone knife in the ground with one hand, touched the bloody gash on his shoulder, and scoffed with obvious displeasure.

"A pathetic, broken soul."

As the wind blew, Seren's figure suddenly emerged from the sandstorm.

"No matter how much you struggle in vain, you will ultimately be destroyed by my Lord."

"Hey."

Ye Xiao braced herself against the knife hilt with both hands. "You're just like a kindergarten kid who keeps nagging, 'So what if you beat me? My parents will come and deal with you sooner or later!'"

"You lovable baby, is it possible that by the time your Lydia mom arrives I'll have already killed you?"

Seren gripped the tentacle-like longsword tightly, veins bulging on her forehead. "A mere empty shell. The knowledge you have to use to mock me comes from my memories. Don't you find it pathetic?"

"Really? Then why don't I remember a single coward as eager to be a dog as you?"

"You simply don't understand the truth I've gleaned from countless reincarnations!"

"If the truth you've gleaned from countless reincarnations is to be a dog, then all I can say is..."

Ye Xiao shrugged. "That would indeed suit you quite well."

"You foul-mouthed bastard, I'm going to kill you right here and now!!!"

Perhaps it was because he had become taciturn in many subsequent reincarnations that Ye Xiao, now carrying the memories of the first reincarnation, was able to outwit his opponent in trash talk.

However, even though Ye Xiao didn't want to admit it, Seren's swordsmanship was indeed far superior to his.

Even if both have comprehended the Law of Slash and entered the Mythical Rank, the gap between the Mythical Ranks can be unimaginably large.

Six chaotic blades of light sliced ​​the mountainside in an instant, like a cake. Ye Xiao took a step and dodged through the blades, then slashed at Seren's head.

But that was just an afterimage left behind by the other party. A gust of wind howled, and the blade that Seren had raised also swept towards Ye Xiao's neck.

Ye Xiao immediately parried with his sword, the killing intent condensed on its blade carrying the law of slashing, splashing out and leaving several bloody marks on both sides of his cheeks.

He even integrated the slashing motion into his mind... That's just too exaggerated.

Ye Xiao was startled when she felt a stinging pain on her face. She tapped the bone knife with her left knuckles and activated the Reversal of Stars again.

The blades diverged, and as the phantoms of the countless stars shifted their positions, Ye Xiao and Seren immediately distanced themselves.

Before Ye Xiao could even land, the black blade, like a leech clinging to his bone, suddenly pierced the air and nearly severed his head in one blow.

Ye Xiao narrowly avoided the blade by turning his head, leaving a few strands of broken hair floating in the air. Looking through the flash of the blade, he saw that Siren had already attacked him.

"So fast!?"

Ye Xiao activated the Reversal of Stars again, but this time, before he could even stand up straight, the black blade formed by the tentacles slashed out from the side.

He had no choice but to parry again, looking into Seren's dark eyes filled with murderous intent, wondering why the reversed starry sky could no longer create distance.

"You seem surprised that your little trick didn't work?"

Siren saw through Ye Xiao's thoughts at a glance, and a contemptuous smile appeared on her lips.

"I have a clear understanding of the mapping of stars and space. As long as I keep in mind our positions during the changes, it will be easy to locate you during the transformation."

Hmm... How could you remember that?

Ye Xiao's lips twitched. Could this guy actually be surprisingly smart?

"clang clang"

A series of metallic groans poured down like a torrential downpour, and Ye Xiao staggered backward through the web of flashing blades.

Each blade of light contains profound laws of slashing, manifesting as ink-black crystalline lines. Even if he barely manages to block the blade, his body will still be torn apart by the penetrating lines of law.

Even though Ye Xiao tried to use the same laws to resist, his proficiency was not as good as his opponent's, and the laws he summoned were inferior in both density and strength.

After a series of exchanges, Ye Xiao's arm armor had long since turned to dust, and the exposed muscle surface was covered with spiderweb-like black patterns. The filthy bloodstains were difficult to heal even with the summoning of holy light.

Just as Ye Xiao was able to use Ella's holy light to restore himself, Seren's tentacle blades were also imbued with the blessing of chaos.

The corrupting divine power, riding on the lines of law that penetrated the defenses, seeped deep into the skin and bone marrow, tearing the wounds apart, just like thousands of ants greedily gnawing at Ye Xiao's remnant soul.

He took a deep breath, his hands gripping the bone knife trembling slightly from the unbearable pain.

"You've broken the divine authority of that birdman with a bunch of wings, so your strength is nothing special."

Seren approached step by step, carrying a black knife, leaving black divine power-shaped footprints on the mottled ground.

"A fake is a fake. Even if a mere remnant soul imitates my laws, it can never surpass me."

"That's Adam with seven pairs of wings. Your math skills don't seem to be very good."

As she spoke, Ye Xiao suddenly plunged the bone knife into the ground. "And the divine authority I wield is not just this one."

In an instant, mountain-like knuckles suddenly rose up beneath Seren's feet.

Ancient tremors from the depths of the earth transformed into thousands of giant hands, each finger flowing with primordial lava, and the palm lines roaring with the fury of glaciers.

When these fists, powerful enough to shatter the continental shelf, crashed down, even the light that filled the sky and earth was distorted.

"Ah."

Siren raised her eyelids dismissively. "No matter how many moves my defeated opponents know, it doesn't change the fact that you are all losers."

The tentacle blades traced perfect arcs, and countless slashes erupted from the blade marks.

The blade flashed, tearing through the sky and slicing the countless arms of the earth into flying rocks.

But as the stone fell, Sai Lun's gaze pierced through the thick smoke and dust, only to be startled to see a cluster of pale, strange colors piercing through the haze.

Ye Xiao gripped the hilt of the knife tightly with his right hand, while his left hand stroked the blade, the holy, burning flames enveloping its dazzling sharpness.

"Honey, can I borrow a light?"

At his command, the flames wrapped around the bone blade shot into the sky, scattering the clouds and illuminating the surrounding land.

Then the bone blade, wreathed in flames, slashed down at Seren. The surging holy fire transformed into blade light, causing everything in heaven and earth to lose its color in an instant.

However, the next moment, pitch-black flames burst forth from the ground, condensing into blade energy to meet the descending holy fire.

The fire and light collided, and the resulting high temperature vaporized the area within a radius of several miles. The spherical energy fluctuations annihilated that mountain range, turning it into a sinkhole.

Chapter 270 Swordsmanship

Black and white flames swirled around the sinkhole, and in the distorted light of the high temperature, two strangely shaped longswords crossed together.

Ye Xiao's hands gripped the bone knife tightly, trembling slightly, the afterglow of the sacred fire still lingering on the blade tip. But his tiger's mouth had already split open, and beads of blood seeped from the wound engraved with chaotic dark patterns, flowing over the white bone hilt and converging into a crimson stream at the pommel.

The black blade that Seren pressed against remained motionless. Black flames enveloped the palm-width blade, emanating an ominous aura, and the flowing lines of the slashes produced golden sparks at the point of impact.

"I can also use summoning magic."

He coldly curled the corners of his mouth, "The grace bestowed by my Lord is not something your false god can match."

Ye Xiao gritted his teeth, putting all his strength into the blade to resist the power of the law. But even with the superhuman strength added by his attributes, it was still too difficult to make up for the gap in control over the law with his physical body.

The next second, the slash line violently broke apart from the blade.

Ye Xiao's blade was deflected, and he staggered backward. Seizing this moment of vulnerability, Siren stabbed Ye Xiao in the heart.

In the blink of an eye, Ye Xiao activated his teleportation ability, but just as he flashed behind Seren, Seren's black blade spun and slashed down as if he had foreseen the future.

So fast! ?

Ye Xiao was startled and hurriedly blocked.

A sharp black light flashed out diagonally, and a powerful slash penetrated the laws of slashing. Even though Ye Xiao blocked the blade, the invisible line still cut through the blade, instantly tearing the skin and flesh from his right arm.

Blood splattered, and Ye Xiao swung a fireball that flew past the blade and grazed the face, but it only passed through Seren's afterimage and blasted away the earthen mound behind him.

At the same time, Seren's true form flashed to the side, delivering a horizontal slash as fast as lightning.

With a cold glint in his eyes, Ye Xiao didn't have time to parry with his sword again, and immediately rolled along with the momentum of the sword.

The move was clumsy but effective. He used his left hand to brace himself and did a side somersault to create distance, but Seren closed in like a shooting star and delivered another slash.

The rhythm of the sword strikes was breathtakingly fast, but Ye Xiao did not retreat; instead, he bent down to meet the attack.

In a swift movement, the two brushed past each other, their blades flashing and creating a streak of fire in the air.

Upon landing, the two men simultaneously tucked their knives into their waistbands, back to back.

Draw a sword and kill?

In an instant, Ye Xiao used his mental perception to read the starting stance of his opponent behind him, which was an ultimate technique that was almost exactly the same as his current movement.
