Chapter 53: Death! Reforging the Body! And a Fool Like You Thinks He Can Exterminate the Human Race!
With Xiao Xuan’s furious roar, a lightning-and-fire saber aura stretching for thousands of miles slashed straight upward toward Tian Ji, powerful enough to destroy the Earth of old.
At that moment, as his Essence-Blood burned to its absolute limit, the level of the Bloodthirsty Demonic Art skyrocketed straight to peak tenth tier.
Its enhancement of his power reached a terrifying seventyfold and more. Arts of this type had always provided far greater amplification than ordinary Cultivation Arts.
The strike Xiao Xuan unleashed with his strength surging more than twentyfold slammed fiercely into that terrifying dark palm seal.
However, in the next moment, Xiao Xuan fully saw the horrifying gap between the Supreme Realm and the Martial Saint Realm.
That terrifying blade radiance, which could have split the Earth from before the Great Cataclysm in half, was instantly annihilated within that dark palm seal.
“They say villains die because they talk too much. Tian Ji turned out to be this decisive.”
Xiao Xuan smiled helplessly.
In the next instant, he was completely swallowed by that terrifying dark palm seal.
Once engulfed, his entire body began to disintegrate madly.
Very quickly, his body was completely annihilated within the dark power, leaving behind only a single wisp of soul.
Naturally, Tian Ji had done this on purpose.
With a wave of his hand, he ripped Xiao Xuan’s wisp of soul out of the endless darkness and pinched it between his fingers.
“Tsk, tsk. Soul Destroyer souls really are strong. Even reduced to a single wisp, you still won’t die, and you even retain full consciousness. But that only makes things better!”
This way, I can make you watch as the entire human race is utterly destroyed!
“Hahahaha!!”
At that point, Tian Ji threw his head back and laughed wildly.
“The extinction of the human race? You must have gone stupid from staying in seclusion too long. You think someone like you deserves to wipe out the human race as it exists now?”
Xiao Xuan, reduced to a single remnant soul, merely looked at Tian Ji and spoke calmly.
“Hmph. The human race is a civilization that has developed for barely six thousand years. Reaching the Martial God Realm is already the limit for any of you.”
But I stand in the Supreme Realm, above the Martial God Realm!
As for you, I have no idea how a piece of trash like you managed to reach the Peak of the Martial Saint Realm, but trash is trash. In the end, you will never rise above your station.
“Now watch, in endless agony, as I exterminate the human race!”
Tian Ji spoke with perfect calm.
In the next instant, Dark Divine Flame surged in his hand, and the fire instantly engulfed Xiao Xuan.
At once, the agony of soul-burning washed over him.
Xiao Xuan’s remnant soul began to tremble violently.
SHHK!!!
But at that very moment, a streak of golden flame flashed past in an instant.
Tian Ji’s eyes widened at once.
In the next moment, he felt the world spin around him.
His head dropped directly from the sky.
His headless body also plummeted toward the ground at terrifying speed.
Yet midway through the fall, it was completely burned into nothingness by that golden divine flame.
At the same time, a slender hand slowly caught Xiao Xuan’s remnant soul, which was still enveloped in the Dark Divine Flame.
The instant that so-called Dark Divine Flame touched that hand, it went out.
Only then did Xiao Xuan, trapped in endless pain, finally regain consciousness.
“I’m sorry. I came too late!!”
In the next moment, Mu Xiying’s familiar voice rang out.
Xiao Xuan looked up and saw Mu Xiying’s breathtaking face.
“Sorry, Sister Ying. I’ve had to trouble you to save me again!!”
Xiao Xuan’s soul took the form of a phantom figure as he spoke helplessly.
From his memories, he knew that Tian Ji had already killed quite a few human geniuses during the Hundred-Province Genius Tournament. Later, Tian Ji had even run into Xiao Xuan himself. Fortunately, Mu Xiying had happened to be nearby and had rushed over after sensing the battle, saving Xiao Xuan.
Otherwise, Xiao Xuan would have died during the Hundred-Province Genius Tournament. There would never have been a later day when he surpassed Tian Ji.
“I was too late. I never expected Tian Ji to still be alive this time.”
Mu Xiying frowned slightly.
Whether in the previous cycle or in the original timeline, Tian Ji had never survived to this point. While they were still in university, Tian Ji had tried to make a move against Mu Xiying, only to be killed by her instead.
Only this time, Mu Xiying had grown a little faster.
And on top of that, because Tian Ji was just an Other Races enemy she had already killed twice, she had not left any information about him for her past self.
Who would have thought it would almost get Xiao Xuan killed?
“Looks like next time I’ll have to add Tian Ji’s information too! Although there’s no need. If I really go back again, I can kill him outright during the Hundred-Province Genius Tournament.”
A trace of killing intent appeared in Mu Xiying’s eyes.
“This time? What do you mean?”
Hearing Mu Xiying’s words, Xiao Xuan was puzzled.
“It’s nothing. I’ll rebuild your body first!”
Mu Xiying shook her head and said no more.
Before Xiao Xuan could react, she struck his soul with a palm and sent it flying back into the flames.
At the same time, endless flames erupted out of thin air and engulfed him directly.
In the next moment, Mu Xiying took out a bottle of Ferocious Beast Essence-Blood radiating a terrifying aura, along with several Ferocious Beast bones.
Just from those bones and that Essence-Blood alone, Xiao Xuan could feel an aura at least a hundred times more terrifying than Tian Ji’s.
Mu Xiying then took out several extremely high-tier spiritual herbs and spirit plants and threw them all into the flames.
Then, under Mu Xiying’s refinement, a humanoid body slowly began to take shape.
The aura given off by that body was so powerful that even Xiao Xuan could not help feeling shocked.
At last, Mu Xiying directly pulled Xiao Xuan’s wisp of soul into that body.
As one spiritual herb after another was refined into medicinal liquid and infused into the body, Xiao Xuan felt his soul and that body begin to merge frantically.
A full ten-plus days passed.
During that time, other Supreme-level powerhouses who had sensed Tian Ji’s aura also came.
But after seeing Mu Xiying from afar, they all left.
In the end, that terrifying body, at least ten thousand times stronger than his former one, finally fused completely with Xiao Xuan’s remnant soul.
Under the nourishment of the medicinal power, Xiao Xuan’s soul also recovered for the most part.
As the flames gradually dispersed,
Xiao Xuan slowly opened his eyes.
A terrifying power with a primordial aura burst forth from his body.
“This body was refined from the bones and Essence-Blood of peak twelfth-tier lightning- and fire-attributed Ferocious Beasts.”
With the aid of a thirteenth-tier Soul-Melding Grass, you should be able to adapt to this body almost perfectly.
Although the compatibility is still far inferior to that of your original body,
its potential is greater.
“Unfortunately, your healing-type trait is only Silver. If it had reached Gold, you could have relied on it to regenerate on your own. Also, some of your original traits may have vanished along with your former body.”
Mu Xiying looked at Xiao Xuan apologetically.
In her view, it was her own oversight that had led to Xiao Xuan’s body being shattered.
If she had carefully examined her own memories, she might have guessed that Tian Ji could still be alive.
Xiao Xuan glanced at his status panel.
His realm had actually skyrocketed straight to the Third Layer of the Supreme Realm!
