Chapter 621: The Hell of Nothingness

Bitingly cold winds swept through heaven and earth, but they couldn’t disperse the stench of bloodshed lingering in the air.

The ground was covered in scars and littered with fragmented corpses. There was no shortage of broken treasures, either.

When the martial artist gazed upon that tall, upright figure standing in the sky, they froze in place, too astonished for words.

One attack, and the Baleful Demon Heaven-Plundering Formation broke. Not one of the one hundred and twenty-six experts of the Celestial Prison Demon Court survived!

This was enormously shocking to begin with.

Then, even Tu Baizhen, a Spiritual Manifestation Realm, fell beneath his sword like wheat beneath a scythe. This left the onlookers too shocked for words.

After just a few months, Imperial Preceptor Su became this strong?

Just what miraculous encounters did he have in the Great Xia to transform so thoroughly?

“He’s like a torch illuminating the Great Zhou!” Li Changlin murmured to himself, so excited that his lips quivered.

He felt as if he’d seen a faint beam of light amidst the darkness, only for that feeble ray to miraculously cut through the sky and illuminate the entire world!

Of course, Su Yi had never once concerned himself with what his martial artist tagalongs thought.

Instead, he looked at the demonic infant, seemingly thoughtful. “It seems you… aren’t the least bit afraid?”

In response, the infant withdrew his aura and straightened up his clothing. Then, beneath everyone’s flabbergasted gazes, he knelt in midair.

He raised his innocent, guileless little face and said pitifully, “Sir, I’m just a little child ignorant of the ways of the world. Can you please show mercy and spare me just this once?”

The raspy voice of an elder was gone, replaced by the babyish voice of a small child.

The infant’s red eyes were now black and pure. Helplessness, weakness, and?pitifulness?were written all over his face.

“.....”

Everyone watched in a daze.?What’s going on?

Su Yi smiled faintly. “A little child?”

The demonic infant batted his big eyes and said timidly, “Sir, with your abilities, surely you can tell that it’s only been three months since I was born! As soon as I entered this world, those depraved, wicked fiends trapped me here. This is my first time going outside!”

The demonic infant paused, lowered his head, and said timidly, “I don’t even know who my parents are. I’m all alone in this world. Sir, if you don’t disdain me, I’d happily accept?you?as my father!”

Everyone who heard this gasped, completely dumbstruck.

Just how strange and unearthly had the demonic infant been earlier? Even Spiritual Manifestation cultivators had to treat him with the utmost respect and carry out his every command.

Yet now, he seemed like a completely different person!

Su Yi remained calm; it seemed he’d seen it all before. He said flatly, “I’ll give you a chance. Give me your demonic blood origin, and I can spare your life.”

The infant kneeling in the air trembled, then wailed, “Sir, if I do that, I really will die!”

“Little creature, do you really think I don’t know what demonic infants are?” Su Yi said with a dry laugh.

As he spoke, his sleeves billowed around him. He pressed the fingers of his right hand into a sword and slashed through the air.

Whoosh!

A thousand feet away, a streak of sword qi came crashing down, as brilliant as a rainbow.

The kneeling demonic infant suddenly let out a high-pitched shriek, shot forward, and dodged by a hair. He then stood about a hundred feet to the left.

“Su Yi, this lofty one has already made sufficient concessions! Are you really dead-set on pursuing this?”

When the demonic infant spoke, his voice was raspy and aged once again, and his pure eyes were the same blood red they’d been before.

His crimson robes billowed around him, and his innocent, guileless little face looked utterly strange and malevolent.

Boom!

At the same time, a limitlessly terrifying vicious aura spread from his foot-tall body, throwing the surrounding skies into chaos and dyeing the air with unsettling, bright red demonic qi.

The demonic infant now resembled a demon king straight out of the depths of hell, and his fury shook the skies!

“I said that if you gave me your demonic source blood, I’d spare your life,” Su Yi said calmly.

“You’re dreaming!” jeered the infant.

Boom!

Su Yi stepped into the air and attacked once more. Sword qi swept forth with grand momentum, like a boundless river of stars.

At his cultivation, even a casual attack was full of the Charm of the Dao, and the essence of his swordsmanship was on full display. That power was enough to effortlessly exterminate Spiritual Manifestation Realm cultivators.

For instance, this was the power that had destroyed Tu Baizhen.

The demonic infant was visibly enraged. “Hah? Do you really think?I’m?afraid of?you?”

He suddenly raised his hand.

A three-inch long blood-red sword shot through the sky,?clanging?and humming. Countless blood-colored skeletons swathed in blood red appeared and clustered around the sword, which rampaged through the sky.

Rumble! Boom!

The following impact shook both heaven and earth.

It was visible to the naked eye. Su Yi’s slash was enough to kill a Spiritual Manifestation Realm cultivator with ease, yet the blood-red sword qi effortlessly neutralized it and continued toward Su Yi.

Countless crimson skeletons swept toward him, blanketing the sky with terrifying momentum.

So, the demonic infant has already merged with some of the will sealed within his sea of consciousness. Judging by his power, that portion of will most likely came from an Imperial Realm cultivator…?thought Su Yi.

Even as he pondered, his movements never slowed.

Clang!

The clear, impassioned humming of a sword rang out. The Abstruse God Sword appeared in his hand and slashed through the air.

Crack! Boom!

The skeletons filling the sky burst into pieces, scattering a rain of light.

Su Yi arrived before the demonic infant in a single step and swung his sword, quick as wind or lightning.

He didn’t underestimate the demonic infant.

He was well aware that the little imp’s power and awareness were both the result of the Imperial expert’s will sealed within his sea of consciousness.

In other words, the wicked little creature’s secret arts and combat experience were both far from ordinary!

Thus, when Su Yi attacked, he used his full power right off the bat.

“Go!” The demonic infant’s little face was murderous. He manipulated his blood sword and clashed with Su Yi head-on.

A grand battle broke out.

Su Yi’s blue robes fluttered around him, and he looked like an immortal of the sword. Sometimes, his sword qi was boundlessly vast. Other times, it was swift as lightning, illusory and ethereal, or dense and heavy…

His attainments in the Dao of Sword seemed to steal fortune from the heavens, and three types of peerless Dao Charm—Yin and Yang, Wind and Lightning, and the Five Elements—were fully manifested within his attacks. Every strike brimmed with shocking power.

Even if the lady sword cultivator of the Profound Sky Realm, Qing Shuang, had been here, Su Yi’s sheer momentum would have suppressed her!

But the demonic infant was utterly extraordinary. Despite his youthful appearance, he was unreasonably powerful.

His Dao of the Sword wasn’t overly strong, but his application of power was unimaginably exquisite.

Especially since the body he'd occupied was a true descendant of the demon race.?Spiritdemon Goldblood?flowed through his veins. His raw power wasn’t one whit inferior to a peak Spiritual Manifestation Realm expert!

You couldn’t judge a monster like this by its cultivation boundary.

Furthermore, the demonic infant was proficient in all manner of strange and powerful demonic arts. He could split into body doubles, breathe demonic fire, control demonic domains, summon profound lightning… and so on.

Every single technique was a shocking, unparalleled secret art, no exceptions!

Were the infant to face any other Spiritual Manifestation Realm cultivator, his opponent would have likely fallen already.

Even the Spiritual Manifestation Realm monsters of the ancient era were a level beneath him.

It was among the strongest of the opponents Su Yi had encountered following his reincarnation. action

Rumble! Boom!

Sword qi swept throughout heaven and earth, and demonic flames ran rampant.

The mountains and rivers were completely enveloped in currents of terrifying power.

As they watched this from a distance, Li Changlin and the martial artists’ hearts trembled. They felt as if they were witnessing a raging battle between an immortal from on high and a demon king from the pits of hell.

Power of this level was far beyond their imagination!

This guy isn’t a recently awakened monster of the ancient era, nor is he one of the Possessed. How could he possibly have mastered such a terrifying Dao of the Sword??The demonic infant’s expression remained murderous, but waves of emotion coursed through his heart.

The cultivation and methods Su Yi had displayed completely overturned his perception. He couldn’t even imagine how such power was possible for a Gathering Stars Realm cultivator!

The boy surely has extraordinary origins. The backward natives of the Azure Continent aren’t even remotely comparable. Even most emperors couldn’t have taught him such mighty legacies and combat skills!

The demonic infant was increasingly alarmed.

His awareness was a fragment of an Imperial Realm cultivator’s will. He naturally knew how unbelievable it was for a Gathering Stars Realm cultivator to possess such heaven-defying strength.

Someone like this couldn’t have just appeared out of nowhere!

In other words, the demonic infant was increasingly certain that Su Yi had unknown origins!

Boom!

A deafening boom rang out, and an incoming slash sent the demonic infant flying. The damage was so heavy that he coughed up blood.

“Your power, ultimately, has yet to truly fuse, and your cultivation boundary is unstable. If this continues, you’ll lose beyond a doubt within ten breaths,” Su Yi said calmly. “I urge you to seize this opportunity to attack with everything you’ve got while you still can. Otherwise, I’m afraid you won’t get another chance.”

Before his voice finished echoing through the air, he drew his sword, quick as lightning. A storm of dense?sword qi?poured into the world, filling the sky and illuminating the mountains and rivers!

“Have it your way, then!” The demonic infant took a deep breath, a vicious look on his innocent, guileless little face.

A strange, inscrutable syllable escaped his mouth.

Immediately afterward, the blood sword he was manipulating gradually turned ethereal and indistinct before disappearing into thin air.

However, at the same time, a limitlessly terrifying destructive aura swept through the skies. Everywhere it passed, an invisible barrier blocked Su Yi’s sword qi. It couldn’t advance even an inch further!

Hm??Su Yi’s distant gaze suddenly focused.?A spatial art?

It was then that the infant shrieked, “The Hell of Nothingness!”

His voice boomed like a sudden crack of thunder.

Heaven and earth shook, and, with the demonic infant at its center. Violent energy fluctuations coursed through the sky, churning like the surface of storm-swept seas.

Boom!

Amidst an earth-shaking explosion, countless formless and ethereal wisps of sword qi rose up like a tidal wave and slammed into Su Yi, attacking from all sides.

The sword qi was invisible, but as it launched itself, it seemed to crush the sky into fragments, overturn heaven and earth, and reverse Yin and Yang.

“Just what kind of power is that?” Li Changlin and the others watched in wide-eyed astonishment.

They watched as the space around Su Yi seemed to crumble and wither. Surging, terrifying, formless power bore down, attacked, and shattered everything it touched.

It was unbelievable to the extreme, as well as terrifying to the extreme.

“It really is spatial power,” said Su Yi. He looked enlightened, but more than that, he looked a bit contemptuous.
