Chapter 905: Someone’s Behind You
Ye Guan emptied his mind and glanced at the distant Dao Street before heading toward the stone steps.
His goal was the Fourth Heaven.
He had received some warnings about the Fourth Heaven, but he wanted to test it.
If he could secure the help of the Fourth Heaven\'s expert, then his chances of survival would increase.
He needed more allies, after all.
As soon as Ye Guan stepped into the Fourth Heaven, a voice echoed in his mind. "Brother Ye!"
Ye Guan was taken aback. "Li Han?"
Swoosh!
A shadowy figure appeared before him.
It was indeed Li Han!
Ye Guan was surprised. Why is this guy here?
Li Han suddenly said, "This isn’t the place to talk. Let’s go inside the tiny pagoda."
"Sure."
With that, Ye Guan led Li Han into the tiny pagoda.
Once inside, Li Han spoke in a grave tone of voice, "You’ve heard about it, haven’t you?"
"You mean about the Dao Emperor Zhaowu, who has come here to kill me?"
Li Han nodded.
"I just found out."
"I\'m sure you don\'t know anything about him, so let me tell you something," Li Han said, sounding serious. "He was invincible during the Zhaowu Era, and he was the only one beyond the Path Creation Realm at the time.
"Moreover, I’ve heard that he’s not alone; he has brought in some mysterious experts with him. I couldn’t even uncover their identities."
Ye Guan chuckled. "Brother Li, are you not on the Evil Dao Hall\'s side?"
Li Han frowned slightly. "What are you talking to me like that? I see you as a brother, but you\'re talking to me like that. Not cool, man."
Ye Guan was speechless. Since when did we become brothers?
Li Han suddenly asked, "What’s your plan?"
"I\'m planning to take it one step at a time."
Li Han frowned. "That’s it?"
"Yes."
Li Han was a bit exasperated.
Ye Guan smiled. "Brother Li, did you come here to join me in life and death?"
"You could say that."
"Why?"
Li Han stared deeply at Ye Guan and said, "Because I think you’ll win."
Ye Guan was stunned. "That’s all?"
"Yes."
Ye Guan stared at Li Han, saying nothing.
"My Li Clan may not be as powerful as before, but we still have some Path Creation Realm elites. Besides, our intelligence network is pretty good. I believe we can be of some help to you."
"Brother Li, you know my enemy is the Evil Dao Alliance, right?" asked Ye Guan with a solemn face.
Li Han nodded. "I know."
Ye Guan was silent for a while, and then he smiled. "Welcome to the team, Brother Li."
Li Han nodded and then said, "I’ll go gather information. I really wanna know the identities of the experts that the Fourth Hall Master has summoned. I\'ll go uncover their identities for you so you can plan accordingly."
With that, Li Han turned around and left. After just a few steps, however, he stopped and said, "Brother Ye, I truly came here to help you."
With that, he vanished on the spot.
Ye Guan stood still, deep in thought.
The Fourth Hall Master... beyond the Path Creation Realm. Ye Guan shook his head, dismissing his thoughts. He started walking forward, and he soon found a grand palace.
The palace was as dark as the abyss, and it exuded a sinister aura reminiscent of Hell.
As soon as Ye Guan was close enough to the palace, the world around him dimmed, and an extremely cold wind swept across him. A strange black cloud was suspended up above, with flames flickering inside it. Horrifying screams could occasionally be heard inside the cloud, and it made Ye Guan think that someone was being skinned alive inside the cloud.
Ye Guan frowned and asked, "Senior Ru Yuan, any idea who they are?"
"No idea," Ru Yuan replied, "He was already here when I got here. He doesn’t like to interact with others, so I know nothing about him. Don’t get too close to that palace. He is extremely powerful. Your strength has improved significantly, but you’re still no match for him."
Ye Guan nodded. He was about to speak when a terrifying aura swept across him.
Ye Guan looked up sharply and saw churning clouds.
A burly man shot toward the black palace like a cannonball.
"Get lost!" A roar erupted from within the black palace, and a sonic wave burst out of the palace.
Boom!
The burly man flew tens of thousands of meters away, and both his fleshly body and soul were reduced to ashes as soon as he came to a halt. He had been obliterated by just one attack!
When Ye Guan saw that the terrifying sonic wave was flying toward him, his face paled, and he unleashed his Invincible Sword Intent as a shield while retreating at full speed.
However, his sword intent shattered instantly upon colliding with the sonic wave.
Ye Guan’s pupils contracted. "Qianqian!"
Boom!
Ye Guan’s aura surged madly, and he slashed forward with his sword.
Boom!
The sword light shattered, and Ye Guan was blasted thousands of meters away. Despite that, the sonic wave had yet to dissipate. Ye Guan was shocked, and he drew the Qingxuan Sword, slashing out once again—Lifespan Severance!
However, the sonic wave disappeared before it could reach Ye Guan.
Ye Guan sighed in relief upon its disappearance. He looked at the black palace in the distance, and his expression became more solemn than ever.
That was just a sonic wave, but it was so terrifying!
If it hadn\'t been for the Lifespan Severance and the Qingxuan Sword, he would have been obliterated in both fleshly body and soul. And it seemed like it was just a casual attack. What if it were an all-out attack?
Reeling in shock, Ye Guan turned and saw that the burly man had already been reduced to ashes. He went silent. A Path Creation Realm cultivator was dead, just like that. Ye Guan had never felt it more keenly before—the fact that this place was extremely dangerous.
Even Path Creation Realm elites could die in the blink of an eye here.
"Huh?" A dumbfounded voice echoed from Ye Guan\'s flank.
Ye Guan turned and saw a lady in a blood-red dress with a huge saber on her back.
Ye Guan’s expression darkened at the sight of her, as she was none other than Ji Xiaojian!
Ji Xiaojian stared at Ye Guan and started. "How—"
Swoosh!
A sword appeared out of nowhere, and it slashed out toward her face—Phantom Edge!
Ye Guan went all out without any hesitation.
Ji Xiaojian reacted quickly. She drew her saber and swung it downward.
Boom!
The Phantom Edge was deflected, and Ji Xiaojian spun around, performing a horizontal slash.
Boom!
Ye Guan\'s sword that was coming from behind her shattered into pieces.
However, Ji Xiaojian had no time to relax. A shrill noise echoed behind her, and when she turned around to defend herself, Ye Guan was already in front of her with a radiant sword in hand.
Ye Guan slashed out.
Ji Xiaojian raised her sword to defend herself.
Boom!
Ye Guan was blasted away, but Ji Xiaojian’s massive saber shattered in her hands.
The saber could not withstand the Qingxuan Sword!
Ji Xiaojian froze in disbelief at the incredulous sight. The next moment, she thrust her palm downward and manifested her sword domain.
Boom!
Before it could form, a sword swept past her nape.
If she had been even a moment slower, the attack would have taken her life.
Furious, Ji Xiaojian stomped, and a wave of sword lights erupted from the ground.
Boom!
A sea of swords manifested around Xiaojian, deflecting Ye Guan’s Phantom Edge.
Ye Guan was about to strike again when a sword light sliced through the sea of swords and went straight for him.
Undeterred, Ye Guan slashed out.
Boom!
The sword light was torn apart. Ye Guan looked up and saw Ji Xiaojian holding a sword formed purely of sword intent. Ji Xiaojian took out a sugar cane and bit into it before saying, "Wow, you’ve gotten a lot stronger in such a short period of time. Impressive."
Ye Guan didn\'t bother responding and simply slashed out with the Qingxuan Sword—Lifespan Severance!
Ji Xiaojian’s expression changed drastically. She seemed to have sensed something that made her face turn pale. "My lifespan!"
Ye Guan’s sword had just severed five hundred thousand years of her lifespan.
"Fuck!" Ji Xiaojian roared in fury before retreating frantically. She even threw her sugar cane at Ye Guan.
Ye Guan was about to swing his sword again, but Ji Xiaojian turned around and hopped onto a sword made out of sword intent before speeding away into the distant horizon.
Ye Guan was taken aback.
She ran away just like that? That\'s it? Ye Guan sneered.
"Someone\'s behind you," Little Pagoda said.
Ye Guan\'s expression froze.
