System's Super Sect Chapter 931 - 874: Holy Light Shining (Second Update)

Upon hearing Wen Ping's words, Ye Wuping's heart quaked violently. She had never anticipated him declaring something like that.

The phrase 'Never planned to offer tribute' could be entirely interpreted as the Immortal Sect Leader constantly nurturing rebellious intentions.

If true, it was utterly astonishing and disgraceful.

She couldn't tell if the Immortal Sect Leader truly possessed the ability to act so daringly, or if he was merely a frog at the bottom of a well, clueless and unafraid.

Yet right now, she had no interest in probing deeper. Regardless of the Immortal Sect Leader's initial plans, she had now accomplished her objective, and that sufficed.

Everything else was irrelevant to her. What mattered more was verifying the truth behind Wen Ping's other statements.

Did the Immortal Sect truly boast more than one Upper Realm powerhouse?

As she scanned her surroundings warily, Wen Ping suddenly commanded, 'Go and utterly destroy Three Extremes and Evil Moon Princess; the shadow will lead you. This time, ensure their corpses remain whole!'

The Sword Demon nodded, swiftly stowing the magic wand and lifting the space seal, ready to trail the black shadow emerging from behind Chen Xie.

The moment the space seal vanished, the suspended water in the sky cascaded down upon Jianshui City like a massive waterfall. Simultaneously, Ye Wuping lunged at the Sword Demon, her form shrouded in myriad red leaves that bore down oppressively as she closed in.

Every red leaf acted like a sharp blade, relentlessly slicing toward the Sword Demon and obstructing his way.

'With me blocking you, you won't escape!' If she failed to rescue Qian Jun today, she refused to allow the Two of Three Extremes to perish once more.

Witnessing her pursuit, the Sword Demon furrowed his brows deeply. 'Why must you be such a nuisance? I have no desire to battle you!' He then swung his hand, unleashing countless strands of black Sword Qi at the persistent red leaves, carving a path through them to pursue the black shadow.

Yet Ye Wuping refused to let the Sword Demon slip away easily. After her Meridian Gate quivered, each soaring red leaf burst into flames. These blazing red leaves converged, forming elongated serpents that lunged at the Sword Demon.

The Sword Demon shattered one serpent with Sword Qi, but the remaining fiery snakes crafted from combusting red leaves encircled him. From afar, it appeared as though he was trapped within a miniature sun.

Ye Wuping declared gravely, 'Sword Demon, you can't flee with me here.'

'Sword Demon, go ahead and tangle with her,' Wen Ping's voice rang out once more, as a magic wand reappeared in his grasp.

It was preparing to unleash Necromancy!

To ensure no escape for Three Extremes and Evil Moon Princess, Wen Ping avoided summoning Bone Dragon or Skeleton Warrior from Middle Realm forces.

He opted instead to call forth Lucifer!

Since selecting it in the Undead Hell previously, Wen Ping hadn't deployed Lucifer in combat, making this the ideal moment.

'Hear my summon...'

Differing from prior occasions, a white radiance emerged this time.

A sacred white light!

Without keen perception, the hidden Death Qi within went unnoticed.

The authentic Hell Demon King, the Six-winged Blazing Angel Lucifer, beat its wings softly and descended gradually from the white light, evoking an angel gracing the world with blessings. Upon exiting the Undead Hell, Lucifer surveyed all with haughty disdain, as if scorning them.

Its domineering aura swiftly saturated the entire sky, leaving countless people and many Earth Unrestricted Experts in awe.

Upper Realm!

Yet another Upper Realm!

Wen Ping promptly instructed Lucifer, 'Follow the shadow's lead and retrieve the corpses of those two.'

Lucifer replied deeply, 'As you command!'

With a single flap of its six wings, it vanished instantly over Jianshui City.

The Sword Demon, observing this, brimmed with joy before flashing a cunning grin at Ye Wuping. 'Since you're so eager to clash with me, I'll indulge you. Ye Wuping, now it's my turn to keep you here!'

Thereupon, the Sword Demon hoisted the Black Saber aloft, as four Meridian Gates trembled in unison, rapidly channeling Vein Qi to the blade's tip. In a single motion, he plunged it into the earth, from which eight black Sword Qi erupted outward.

These Sword Qi extended three hundred meters, resembling colossal pillars upholding the heavens!

The flaming red leaves seemed as frail as tissue before them, instantly torn asunder.

Furthermore, the eight Heaven-Supporting Blade Qi pressed on, pivoting as if possessed of sight, and slashed toward Ye Wuping.

A voice then echoed, 'Space Seal!'

A Space Barrier enveloped the region spanning several thousand meters.

Ye Wuping sought to withdraw at once, evading its edge, only to recall upon hitting the Space Barrier that this mirrored Qian Jun's entrapment.

Escape now appeared impossible!

At that instant, Ye Wuping's Battle Intent waned, having witnessed the Immortal Sect's second Upper Realm expert—a figure seemingly surpassing even the Sword Demon in might. Alone against them, entanglement with the Sword Demon followed by encirclement could spell doom for her Jianshui City venture.

Ye Wuping resolved to unleash her full power, her Meridian Gate shuddering as the Five-Vortex Vortex Map on her chest unfurled.

The Four-Vortex Vortex Map boosted by ninety percent!

The Five-Vortex Vortex Map, surging up to one hundred twenty percent!

The enhancement was horrifying.

This gave Ye Wuping assurance she could shatter the Sword Demon's Vein Technique; the Vortex Map disparity was evident, with the Sword Demon relying on a paltry Four-Vortex Vortex Map.

Thousand Leaves Chaotic Dance·First Dance.

The Red Leaf Sect’s Sect Vein Skill—Unleashed!

In the blink of an eye, the heavens erupted like a tempest, myriad red leaves rustling with a chilling whisper. Soon after, they blanketed thousands of meters of sky, forming a vast red leaf Sea of Clouds.

The once-irresistible Sword Qi halted abruptly amid collisions with countless red leaves, locked in stalemate.

But it didn't conclude there; a red leaf ocean also engulfed the Sword Demon. Each leaf served as a blade, ceaselessly flashing before the Sword Demon's eyes in assault. Though he erected a Vein Qi Shield, the red leaves proved inexhaustible.

This caused the formerly impregnable Vein Qi Shield to fracture rapidly, cracks multiplying until it neared collapse.

The Sword Demon couldn't help marveling, 'Impressive, the Red Leaf Sect’s Earth Level Upper Grade Sect Vein Skill; amplified by the Five-Vortex Vortex Map, I've swiftly fallen behind. Yet if this were earlier, I'd worry, but now...'

The Sword Demon started chanting anew.

Upon finishing, Holy Light bathed the Sword Demon.

Tier Three Auxiliary Magic—Holy Light Shining!

It restored up to twenty percent of injuries instantaneously!

The Sword Demon didn't heal twenty percent outright but let wounds mend gradually, rendering him fearless of the encircling red leaves.

With Holy Light Shining active, the situation shifted.

Those wounds vanished under the Holy Light's touch; the Sword Demon ignored them entirely.

'Break—'

The Sword Demon bellowed lowly.

The Heaven-Supporting Blade Qi surged with power, rending the skies!
