“Who is he?” Although Luo Yunyang knew that it wasn’t a good time to ask this question, he still couldn’t help but ask the Floating Butterfly Goddess.

After all, Luo Yunyang would face Jiuzi Xuanming next. Although knowing the enemy might not necessarily lead to victory in the battle against Jiuzi Xuanming, knowing nothing made it even more likely that he would be defeated.

“He is Jiuzi Xuanming, a figure of the same era as the Middle Hall Master,” the Floating Butterfly Goddess said, “He had a fight with the Middle Hall Master a long time ago. Although many people say that Jiuzi Xuanming was defeated by the Middle Hall Master during the contest, the Middle Hall Master has never admitted that he is better than Jiuzi Xuanming.”

Luo Yunyang tensed up when he heard what the Floating Butterfly Goddess said. He hesitated for a moment before saying, “So Jiuzi Xuanming should be a Yuan Venerate?

“It should not be difficult for Jiuzi Xuanming to become a Yuan Venerate. However, I heard that Jiuzi Xuanming cultivated a Mysterious Underworld Race technique which is equivalent to the 12 Yuan Mysterious Sacred Techniques. It is called the Mysterious Underworld Nine Calamities!”

The Floating Butterfly Goddess appeared solemn, especially while she was talking about the Mysterious Underworld Nine Deadly Calamities and continued to explain in a very formal manner. “Every calamity of the Mysterious Underworld Nine Deadly Calamities has to be cultivated to the Yuan Venerate level. Then, one has to use his body as soil and his spirit consciousness as a seed to grow out a new body.”

“The new body has to be born from scratch every time, so the possibility of this cultivation technique failing is also very high.”

“Once this cultivation technique is completed, one will be able to form a Supreme Dao Body. I heard that the Middle Hall Master has praised this cultivation technique highly.”

The words of the Floating Butterfly Goddess made Luo Yunyang even more solemn. If what the Floating Butterfly Goddess had said was true, it would not be easy for him to beat Jiuzi Xuanming.

Although Luo Yunyang was only a clone, he had also brought his Sky Feather Sword along. Luo Yunyang hesitated for a moment before swinging his sword directly at Jiuzi Xuanming when Jiuzi Xuanming’s figure moved closer.

11th Sword!

Even though Luo Yunyang was only using the body formed by his Primeval Underworld Monarch clone, he could still execute all types of techniques flawlessly, as he was using his own spirit consciousness.

The reason the 11th Sword was used instead of the 12th Sword was because Luo Yunyang didn’t want to unleash everything he had on his first move. After all, he didn’t know what other trump cards Jiuzi Xuanming had and revealing all of his own would be a very unwise action.

Luo Yunyang was already very proficient in executing the Silent Extinguishing Sword. Although the 11th Sword hadn’t reached its full potential, like it should when executed by a Yuan Venerate, the differences were very minute.

The black sword-light struck immediately at Jiuzi Xuanming when Luo Yunyang made his move.

The human martialists that were hurriedly escaping stopped in their tracks when this sword move was executed. Although they all knew that this sword wouldn’t do much to Jiuzi Xuanming, it should still be able to stop the momentum of Jiuzi Xuanming’s pulverizing pressure.

However, what happened next shocked them greatly!

When all the human martialists saw the Silent Extinguishing Sword get close to Jiuzi Xuanming, they were shocked to see that he did not have any intention of evading it.

Not only did he not attempt to evade it, but he even moved forward in a strange fashion to meet the Silent Extinguishing Sword move.

The Silent Extinguishing Sword was infused with a massive destructive intent, so anyone enveloped by it would simply experience desolation and destruction.

Even so, Jiuzi Xuanming still strode forward as usual, as if the massive destructive force contained within the Silent Extinguishing Sword had no effect on him at all.

“How is that possible?” a seventh-level Heavenly Venerate elite exclaimed as he looked at the unperturbed Jiuzi Xuanming.

If the arrival of Jiuzi Xuanming had already exerted huge pressure on everyone present, then the scene unfolding in front of them now had caused everyone to sink into extreme despair.

The tens of thousands of Mysterious Underworld troops and the specters they had conjured were too inferior compared to the terrorizing Jiuzi Xuanming.

Although Luo Yunyang hadn’t taken Jiuzi Xuanming lightly, he had never expected this overwhelming strength.

The 11th Sword actually could not break the defense of Jiuzi Xuanming!

The battle between Luo Yunyang and Jiuzi Xuanming was also broadcasted in Hong Meng Sacred Hall. Although the picture quality wasn’t very clear, everyone could still see what was going on.

In fact, powerhouses like the three Hall Masters did not need to see a clear image to know what was happening.

“Jiuzi Xuanming has now gone through nine calamities and will soon attain completion.” The Left Hall Master lamented. “Even an ordinary Yuan Venerate cannot defeat him now.”

The old man and the middle-aged man from Xuan Pin Sacred Hall had grim looks on their faces once again. Luo Yunyang’s appearance had given them all some hope deep down.

After all, the Dual Realm Sky could isolate any Yuan Venerate. However, no one had expected that someone as strong as Jiuzi Xuanming would appear right after Luo Yunyang had rescued the Floating Butterfly Goddess by defeating the 1st Mysterious Demon.

“Jiuzi Xuanming did kill an ordinary Yuan Venerate before.” The Middle Hall Master’s voice reverberated through the void again.

All of a sudden, the great hall turned silent again. Most of the people present knew that Luo Yunyang still had the 12th Sword, but it probably wouldn’t do anything to Jiuzi Xuanming.

Unless Luo Yunyang could execute the 13th Sword!

“Do we have any other solutions?” the old man from Xuan Pin Sacred Hall asked anxiously.

“It’s not that we don’t have anyone comparable to Jiuzi Xuanming. However, that person can’t enter the Dual Realm Sky at all.”

The Middle Hall Master watched Jiuzi Xuanming, who was approaching Luo Yunyang as he spoke in resignation.

Both the Left and Right Hall Master were obviously confused, as they did not know who the Middle Hall Master was referring to.

The expression on the old man’s face darkened once again. The situation was already out of Xuan Pin Sacred Hall’s control.

Although the Floating Butterfly Goddess had the guardians they had sent with her, these guardians wouldn’t be able to take a hit from Jiuzi Xuanming.

“This sort of puny move might be enough to deal with youngsters like the 1st Mysterious Demon.” Jiuzi Xuanming teased Luo Yunyang as he continued moving forward unhurriedly.

Luo Yunyang’s face stiffened with seriousness. He knew clearly that this opponent had to be the strongest he had faced ever since leaving the Da Alliance.

The slightest mistake would cost him his life!

Hence, Luo Yunyang gradually raised his Sky Feather Sword when he saw Jiuzi Xuanming step forward. Then, he quickly adjusted all the attributes in his body.

After the adjustment, the murderous intent seeping out of Luo Yunyang became extremely vigorous and ferocious.

Jiuzi Xuanming obviously felt Luo Yunyang’s surging intent, yet he did not take it seriously. Instead, he glanced at Luo Yunyang as if nothing had occurred and he had no intention of doing anything.

Just as Jiuzi Xuanming took another step forward, Luo Yunyang, who was holding on to his Sky Feather Sword, unleashed yet another sword move. This time, it wasn’t the 12th Sword!

Close, Yet Worlds Apart. This was the 13th Sword technique! Close, Yet Worlds Apart!

Luo Yunyang had borrowed the power of Yuan Venerate Wanliu to execute Close, Yet Worlds Apart when he had been ambushed by a Mysterious Underworld Race Yuan Venerate and relied on Close, Yet Worlds Apart to avoid dying.

Unlike the previous time, the Panorama Horizon was used as an offensive attack this time. The Sky Feather Sword appeared almost instantly beside Jiuzi Xuanming’s neck when Luo Yunyang thrust his sword forward.

Jiuzi Xuanming’s neck would be severed as long as the sword passed through.

It could be said that this sword was infused with a boundless amount of deadly intent. However, even in the face of such a terrifying sword, Jiuzi Xuanming did not look worried. He simply stretched out a finger instead of evading it.

His finger gently tapped the void. Even though the finger was far away from Luo Yunyang’s sword attack, it was still able to land on Luo Yunyang’s sword-light when it appeared.

The nomological law of Close, Yet Worlds Apart did not cause the finger to stop. Both the sword-light and the Sky Feather Sword collapsed almost at the same time when the finger jabbed at the sword-light.

The same finger continued to move across the void without any intention of stopping after pausing for a mere moment. Then, it jabbed at Luo Yunyang’s body.

Although Luo Yunyang was unwilling to retreat, he had no other choice right now. He chose to retreat hurriedly upon facing the finger, which was like an arrow at the end of its flight.

Suddenly, the finger approaching Luo Yunyang, who had retreated, multiplied into hundreds and thousands of fingers!

Although the speed at which Luo Yunyang was retreating was very quick and the finger wasn’t threatening enough, the human elites that were watching the battle crumbled one after the other when they came into contact with this finger.

More than 500 Heavenly Venerates were killed instantly.

The Floating Butterfly Goddess trembled as she watched her companions perishing. She immediately flew into the air and retreated frantically once she heard Luo Yunyang’s command to retreat.

She didn’t know if escaping would be of any use, but it was the only thing she could do at that moment.

As soon as she escaped from the danger zone, traces of light shadows suddenly erupted forth from Jiuzi Xuanming’s body.

Body after body collapsed silently wherever the blood-colored light shadows landed. In the blink of an eye, only a few human elites were left.

“The gulf is too huge!”
