Chapter 375 Holy Realm (2)

's mouth, Xu Yaoyao wouldn't really mind it. But coming out of the mouth of this young lady in front of him, he just felt like she was wasting her talent.Indeed, it's a waste of resources!This is not...Chapter 375 Saint Realm 2

The mid-emperor's furious strike was enough to shatter huge rocks!!

However, the mid-emperor also suffered a slight injury from the counterattack of the rock. There were two reasons for this.

The first reason is that the mid-emperor's technique had not fully unfolded when it was suddenly interrupted, causing a bit of backlash. If it were just this alone, there wouldn't be much of an issue since such backlash could be suppressed.

But here comes the second reason: the force of the rock was too great. If an ordinary person were hit by this stone, they would surely cough up blood and die. To put it simply, the power of the rock is equivalent to a master's full attack.

The level of such a master may not reach the emperor realm, but with all-out effort and perfect timing, they managed to inflict an injury on that mid-emperor. This can only be called a very coincidental coincidence.

However, if it were merely a coincidence, others could accept it. But if this coincidence was someone's calculated result, then no one would dare believe or even think about such a thing.

At least, everyone here wouldn't imagine such a scenario!

Who would have thought that Xianyao had set up many traps here long ago, including setting them up behind the small waterfall for those two peak emperors. He also arranged plenty of traps there.

Why did he arrange these There's no need to ask; Guxing is the one breaking through, and she will soon reach saint realm. In such a moment, Xianyao naturally would make some preparations for any eventualities.

Previously, when Xianyao was resting with Guxing here, Guxing realized that she seemed ready to break through during her cultivation practice, so she stayed behind.

No matter how you look at it, breaking through is the most important thing for both Xianyao and Guxing. Whether this would delay their journey or even cause them to be rejected by the Phoenix Purity Family was completely insignificant.

Even if Guxing had such an opportunity to break through, she couldn't miss it!

When Li Yihun arrived here, Xianyao had already been here for two days. During those two days, he had made all necessary preparations and could handle any martial artists below emperor realm as well as a few emperor-level ones.

Xianyao did this just in case; he never thought that emperors would actually come to cause trouble, let alone multiple ones. Originally, such people were very rare on this land, and they wouldn't come looking for trouble out of nowhere. Beforehand, he truly hadn’t imagined such a scenario could happen.

His arrangements were merely precautionary measures; however, one of these unlikely scenarios actually occurred, making his efforts not in vain. Whether to call it luck or being well-prepared is debatable.

Even if he had made prior preparations, the previous rock attack wasn't something that could be handled simply by saying "preparation." It required intricate maneuvering and precise calculations; one must act at exactly the right moment, not too early nor too late.

Firstly, Xianyao needed to identify the mid-emperor's move, which was the most difficult yet crucial part. That mid-emperor also understood this point; he merely believed it was a coincidence since someone as insignificant as Xianyao couldn't possibly see through his technique.

At least, such an insignificant figure could barely be considered ranker level and had no chance of seeing through the techniques of an emperor. Even if there were that perfect timing to spot the move, it would still be too late for a reaction.

Hence, this was merely another coincidence!!

Continuing on: "I need to get rid of this brat; let's see if your coincidence can keep you by her side."

Though the mid-emperor suffered an injury, it was minor and didn't hinder him from making further moves. In fact, his combat strength remained unaffected.

If he couldn’t even suppress such a tiny backlash, then his emperor status would be just empty talk!

"Boy, you're dead!!"

The mid-emperor launched another powerful attack and this time, he gathered power for it. This move was much more potent than the previous one with far fewer openings.

But Xianyao noticed something familiar about this move…

"Break!!"

Xianyao didn't know how to control the mechanism, but another rock flew towards that mid-emperor and hit precisely on the slight opening of his technique. Even a peer would struggle to find such an opening, yet Xianyao managed again.

There was virtually no difficulty because he had seen this move before—it's one of the few techniques native to this land, which he saw just recently—this is the

Sovereign Sword Dao!!

"Another coincidence!"

When the rock struck his slight opening, the mid-emperor believed it was still a mere coincidence. He immediately adjusted and covered up the flaw.

A move is rigid while a person can be flexible; some flaws can be patched up once noticed by an opponent if your speed surpasses theirs and prevents them from exploiting those weaknesses.

This is also why sometimes, even when one knows there are flaws in the techniques, one cannot use a fixed pattern to counter them because the opponent will change their moves!

The transformation made not only did it fail to stop this Mid Emperor-level move but instead made it more powerful. This new variation amplified the power of the original technique, which was something inherent to the supreme sword path.

The supreme sword path does have its flaws, yet some of her variations turn these weaknesses into offensive strategies. However, mastering these subsequent changes is quite challenging, especially during combat when one must naturally adapt.

Reaching this level indicates that this technique has been fully mastered!

This Mid Emperor-level’s supreme sword path move was clearly already perfected; previously he had won many battles using it. As for someone like Free-and-Easy, in his view, it was too much—he saw this as a blessing to Free-and-Easy.

However, an unexpected situation arose: that strange chaos emerged again...

Around Free-and-Easy, rocks continued to attack. Almost immediately after the first stones appeared, more began moving along specific trajectories before he even had time to change his move.

The initial trajectory seemed random and off-target, not aiming for him. Yet as events unfolded, it became clear that this was no mistake but a terrifying predictive strike.

When the Mid Emperor’s technique changed, a rock appeared in perfect timing with his new move's flaw, forcing another change. Then another stone would appear to limit his next variation.

To his horror, he discovered these changes were still being countered by rocks. Even more frighteningly, some stones that seemed off-target initially hit him right after his moves changed!

Onlookers felt as if the Mid Emperor was intentionally crashing into those rocks, making the scene seem surreal.

"Bang!"

In the end, a stone struck the Mid Emperor's chest. This time he suffered...

"Pht—"

The Mid Emperor spat blood out, looking at Free-and-Easy. In his eyes was not just rage but fear; he couldn't comprehend how Free-and-Easy had done this.

Not to mention seeing through his variations, even controlling the stones puzzled him completely!

In a word: clueless summed up his current state. What made it harder for him to accept was that Free-and-Easy was just a minor figure in Rank One status. If he were an outsider master, he might understand better.

The more he thought about this, the angrier and sicker he felt.

"Who exactly are you"

At this point, if he still saw Free-and-Easy as just a minor figure, he shouldn't be in this江湖. Those who roam江湖are always cautious; only naive young masters would ignore danger.

"Me Just a little servant, not worth mentioning," Free-and-Easy chuckled without moving from his spot. "You should tell me your identity instead, it'll make our conversation more straightforward."

"I don’t think you need to know who I am; otherwise, you’ll suffer worse." The Mid Emperor clearly wouldn't reveal his origins, perhaps not knowing how.

"Then there's nothing left to say. You can continue or wait here," Free-and-Easy said nonchalantly.

"Wait for what" the Mid Emperor was confused; he expected threats like "get lost" rather than this.

"For my boss to come out."

What does that mean

The meaning of those words didn't immediately register, but soon everyone understood: if Lone Star emerges, they would be annihilated then.

In other words, waiting was like awaiting death!

The Mid Emperor’s face darkened as he looked at Free-and-Easy with changing expressions—rage turning to contemplation...

Uncertain of what to do next, killing Free-and-Easy seemed unimportant. But if Lone Star succeeded in breaking through, then killing him would mean inviting Lone Star's wrath. Even without knowing their connection, he knew this would be fatal.

Back then, he was just a minor figure; his life depended on Lone Star’s whims. Offending her servant meant she’d kill him first.

If not killing Free-and-Easy now, what could he do Swallowing the humiliation and retreating or summoning more people However, if a Saint-level appeared, who here would stand against them

This was beyond his consideration; it was his master’s decision. (To be continued)and an exceptionally high degree of talent.To this day, no one has attempted to cultivate this stacking technique to its peak because it's not economically viable. Achieving three layers in combat is...
