The Legendary Son-in-law of the Emperor Chapter 2167 - 2164: Overestimated?
Previously on The Legendary Son-in-law of the Emperor...
Swish!
Ye Xuan and Zhou Youwei swung their swords at the same time, directly shattering all those full moons in the sky.
Right after that.
The two of them charged straight toward those so-called vessels.
"They’ve almost become living beings of the Dou Tian Divine Domain."
Seeing the faint black membrane on those people, Ye Xuan narrowed his eyes slightly.
The killing intent in Zhou Youwei’s eyes surged even stronger as she said coldly, "These people don’t need to be killed. What needs killing are the ones from the Dou Tian Divine Domain on their bodies!"
Ye Xuan didn’t waste words, directly unleashing his Taoist Body to the fullest.
Boom!
A Suppressing Power even more terrifying than the Heaven Suppressing Great Dao.
In that instant it was like a breached dam, erupting all at once.
Blotting out the sky.
Blanketing heaven and earth.
At this moment.
Even Heitian Yucheng, Heitian Qilong, and Guming Liang, who weren’t participating in the battle, all felt a horrifying power they couldn’t withstand.
"This guy, could he be late-stage Quasi-Emperor?!"
Heitian Qilong and Guming Liang both looked grim.
That kind of pressure absolutely wasn’t from the Great Saint Realm.
A peak Nine Transitions Great Saint of the Great Saint Realm did possess a kind of irresistible might, but it definitely didn’t reach this level.
After all, both of their strengths were extremely powerful.
Yet right now, the power Ye Xuan was unleashing made them feel a sort of Despair.
They couldn’t muster the slightest will to resist.
Boom!
The next moment.
The faint black membrane on those so-called vessels suddenly dispersed as if out of thin air.
And in the Void there even rang out a terrified, shrill screech.
"Go!"
Zhou Youwei tossed out the three-foot green longsword in her hand, then struck out with a palm.
Shoo————
The three-foot green sword turned into a bolt of lightning, tearing across the sky.
As it neared those so-called vessels, it suddenly transformed into over a hundred strands of Sword Qi, instantly piercing through those people’s brows.
Whoosh whoosh whoosh————
The Sword Qi passed through their bodies and vanished in an instant.
The shrill screech was abruptly cut off.
Instant kill!
"That’s impossible!"
Guming Liang, Heitian Qilong, and Heitian Yucheng all went deathly pale.
They lost just like that?
Vessels carrying that kind of power, in theory, should have been invincible existences.
Just their defense alone should have been unbreakable.
This point, they all understood.
Because a long time ago, they had personally witnessed a peak Quasi-Emperor powerhouse of the Guming Clan unleash a full-force strike, yet he still failed to break even that faint black membrane.
The vessel’s own strength had only been Third Layer Great Saint Realm.
But now.
So many vessels attacked all at once.
Yet they were still instantly killed.
Where the hell did these two come from?!
The two of them were thoroughly shocked.
The shock in their hearts was even more intense than Heitian Yucheng’s.
"Huh?"
"Why am I here?"
At this moment.
People started coming to their senses one after another, faces filled with confusion.
They all remembered that they were still in the middle of Cultivation; how did they suddenly appear here?
Ye Xuan waved his hand, directly relocating these people elsewhere.
"Jin Que, keep an eye on them."
Ye Xuan said blandly.
Since these people were chosen as vessels, they naturally had something special about them.
And on top of that, they were originally innocent, so Ye Xuan and Zhou Youwei clearly wouldn’t slaughter them.
Jin Que had been so stunned by the duo’s strength that he’d gone blank, but hearing Ye Xuan’s words, he snapped back to himself, took the initiative to wake everyone up, and explained a few things to them.
But Jin Que’s knowledge was limited, so he could only fabricate the story that the Black Sky Clan and Guming Clan were great villains.
Hum————
As those vessels were sent away, that terrifying shadow once again surfaced.
Only compared to before, it now looked extremely faint.
As if it could dissipate at any moment.
"Zhen."
Ye Xuan pressed his hand down.
Boom!
The terrifying Taichu Hongmeng Primordial Dao Power spread out, causing that terrifying shadow to continually scatter and shrink.
In the blink of an eye, it condensed into a monster shadow three zhang tall, with four arms and two heads.
But it showed no movement at all.
"Something’s off..."
Seeing that scene, Zhou Youwei’s willow brows knit slightly as she said softly, "This isn’t a living thing, it doesn’t even count as a soul."
Ye Xuan had noticed this as well, and he was a bit puzzled.
This wasn’t quite the track he’d imagined.
He’d originally thought these so-called vessels were meant to serve as a medium for people from the Dou Tian Divine Domain to descend into this world, in order to complete the grand plan for the Black Sky Ancient Netherworld.
But judging from the current situation, that wasn’t it.
The power these vessels were carrying was indeed from the Dou Tian Divine Domain, but it wasn’t a link to the Dou Tian Divine Domain.
It seemed that the power left behind from that war back then was discovered by the Black Sky and Guming Clans, who then made use of it...
If it was just that, then Ye Xuan actually felt he might have overestimated them a bit.
"Gave them too much credit?"
Ye Xuan looked at that four-armed, two-headed monster shadow, lightly raising his right hand as streams of Dao Pattern surged between his fingers.
The terrifying Suppressing Power poured out; the monster shadow kept shrinking and twisting, and in the end was collected into Ye Xuan’s hand.
"Run!"
Seeing this.
Guming Liang and Heitian Qilong’s expressions changed; without a word they immediately bolted.
They didn’t even have time to notify Heitian Yucheng.
Heitian Yucheng reacted half a beat slower.
When Heitian Yucheng tried to leave, he realized he couldn’t move at all.
In his fright he also discovered that Heitian Qilong and Guming Liang had been frozen in place not far away, unable to flee into the distance.
"It’s over..."
At this moment, Heitian Yucheng fell into utter Despair.
His only Hope was that the Black Sky Demon Palace and Guming Divine Dynasty would notice something wrong here.
But he also understood that with these two people’s methods, erasing the disturbances in this place would be a piece of cake.
So there was basically no Hope to speak of.
Ye Xuan flew down to land in front of Heitian Qilong and Guming Liang, the monster shadow still clutched in his hand. He looked at Heitian Qilong and Guming Liang with a cold expression and said evenly, "I ask, you answer. Don’t waste words. Got it?"
Heitian Qilong’s face suddenly changed. "You’re Ye Xuan!"
Guming Liang’s pretty face also went pale.
They both knew who Ye Xuan was.
Ye Xuan ignored Heitian Qilong and said slowly, "Your purpose in seeking vessels is to have them carry the power of the Dou Tian Divine Domain, and then use that power to conquer the All Heavens and Myriads of Worlds?"
"Dou Tian Divine Domain?"
Hearing this, Heitian Qilong and Guming Liang both froze, utterly confused.
Ye Xuan kept his gaze on the two of them. Although he’d already expected this, he was still somewhat disappointed.
Even these two clearly didn’t know enough.
Perhaps all they knew was that the vessels were used to carry that kind of power, but they didn’t know what the Dou Tian Divine Domain was.
Which made sense.
In the All Heavens and Myriads of Worlds, how many truly know of the Dou Tian Divine Domain?
Thinking of this, Ye Xuan didn’t press that question further and instead asked, "Like this Black Sky Ancient Nether Sacred Land—across the entire Black Sky Ancient Netherworld, how many are there?"
Heitian Qilong stared at Ye Xuan, face ashen. He really wanted to threaten Ye Xuan, but as someone who grasped the Karma Dao, he had the intuition that if he said even half a sentence of nonsense, his Divine Soul would be annihilated on the spot.
"None of your damn business."
Yet before Heitian Qilong could speak, Guming Liang beside him said icily.
