Infinite Professions

Chapter 302 - 162: Undying

"Ha!"

The two envoys closed in, joining hands to deliver a strike, forcing the two swords to bow their heads, their power to slay demons and refine magic subdued.

The remaining three saw this and similarly unleashed powerful attacks, each suppressing the edge of a sword, preventing it from counterattacking.

Dominant strength, seamless cooperation!

Although Shen Hex had previously slain Qia Zhenzi and the Blood God Demon Envoy with just one sword strike, without any superfluous moves, behind that sword was the powerful execution of his foundation, the splendid display of his sword technique.

Now, facing many with few, although possessing an exceptionally strong foundation, capable of wielding five swords simultaneously, the power of the five swords inevitably diminished, no longer as exceedingly dominant as before, giving the five envoys the opportunity to suppress.

This is the ferocity of a tiger hard-pressed against a pack of wolves.

If he poured all his power into one sword, he could certainly kill one person, but the remaining four swords would lack strength and the opponent would seize the chance to counterattack fiercely from all sides, leaving him half dead if not dead.

He wouldn’t even need to split his power, as the Profound Yin Envoys led the attack from the front, while the other three envoys constrained him from the sides, putting him in a dire predicament.

"Bang!"

A thunderous crash was heard, facing the palm strike of the two envoys, the swordsman met it calmly, three forces clashing head-on, as if celestial thunder igniting earth fire, bursting into a massive wave, the silhouettes of the three retreating separately, blood floating in the void.

"Opportunity!"

The three envoys on the sides saw this, pressing their advantage, suppressing the three Evil Exorcism Swords now lacking guidance, each delivering a strike towards the retreating, injured Shen Hex.

Yet unexpectedly...

"Boom!"

In an instant, the void shook, blade light and sword shadow shot forth, as if Yin and Yang split, one carried Yin embracing Yang from death into life, one carried Yang embracing Yin from life into death, a chaotic moment, a moment of trance, then came cries of despair.

"Ah!"

A wailing cry echoed, the Evil God’s Apostle on the left stood frozen, his face contorted in pain, but his body unable to move, for a blade mark stretched across his chest, karmic fire raging within, severing his control over his body and grip on life.

"Puff!"

Simultaneously, a muffled sound, the Evil God’s Apostle on the right also stood frozen, a sword mark slicing across his neck, silencing his voice, claiming his life.

Behind the two, figures appeared, the swordsman wielding a blade, the swordsman bearing a sword, black and white distinct, shocking to behold.

All this seems lengthy in description, but in reality it was but a moment.

The bodies of the two envoys hadn’t even steadied, the clash injuries yet to recover, when the blade and sword simultaneously struck, eliminating two of their major forces.

What was happening?

Where did this blade and sword come from?

"Boom!"

Fear still lingering, shock yet to fade, a thundering explosion was heard, the silhouettes of two envoys dissolved into ash.

The blade and sword moved once more, black and white shadows intertwined, striking toward the Profound Yin Envoys.

"Ha!"

At the same time, Shen Hex called back the five swords, ignoring the injuries within, charging toward the person behind.

That person, aside from the Profound Yin Envoys, was the last Evil God’s Apostle, witnessing the blade and sword swiftly slaughtering two of their own, the murderous god wielding five swords coming toward him, instantly panicked, retreating in disarray.

But Shen Hex intended to kill unrestrainedly, avoiding would not suffice, the Five Demon-locking Swords pierced the void, swiftly passing through his body, slaying demons, refining magic, exorcising evils, subduing spirits, five swords of absolute spirit slashing through, even the Tier Eight Apostle couldn’t mourn in time, reduced to ash, form and spirit annihilated.

"Evil Spirit Envoys!?"

"Ah!"

The situation turned sharply downward, despite holding the upper hand for a moment, losing three major supports, the male envoy roared in fury, unleashing a palm strike, the female envoy followed suit, striving to counter, the Profound Yin coalition attempting to break the blade and sword blockade.

However, the blade and sword moved freely, weaving a dense net without a single flaw, even the combined effort of the two envoys couldn’t break through.

In the rear, Shen Hex seized the opportunity, employing the Divine Secret Technique, an astonishing suction force emerged, a black hole vortex appeared around him, drawing in countless Primordial Spirit Qi, and numerous jade bottles shattered within, the essence of Spirit Pills extracted, completely healing the cultivator’s wounded body.

Indeed — Swallowing Heaven Technique!

Shen Hex, based on the "Yuan-Devouring Skill," combined with the Taiyuan Demon Dao’s Heaven-Devouring Demon Technique, innovated a Divine Secret Technique, capable of seizing Primordial Qi through the method of devouring heaven and earth, channeling it into his being, available at will.

This Dharma Gate, whether for fighting enemies or healing injuries, possesses exceptionally powerful utility.

Shen Hex currently belonged to the latter, having faced the Profound Yin Envoys in a strong clash, the intense impact caused significant injuries, combined with the forceful deployment of the Demon Saber Dao Sword, and the Five Demon-locking Swords to kill the three apostles, despite the strength of the Great Dao Primordial Spirit, it was somewhat unsustainable, necessitating the use of Swallowing Heaven Technique to restore Primordial Skill, healing injuries.

What, Primordial Element Martial Body, Primordial Spirit Dharma Aspect?

Already activated, the unity of immortal and martial arts, the fusion of Martial Body Dharma Aspect, merely refined to the utmost, outwardly imperceptible, a result of a millennium of cultivation.

Regardless of Martial Arts Divine Techniques or Immortal Dao Merits, all lie within this Dao Foundation, otherwise how could he, with few against many, combat these five Tier Eight apostles alone?

Even so, fighting with few against many has heavily depleted him, and his injuries continue to deepen.

Fortunately, he possesses the Heaven-Devouring Secret Technique and numerous Miracle Pills as support.

A thousand years in Taiyuan has seen his primary focus shift back to the main world, yet his Dream Butterfly Body continues to cultivate unabated, the development of Taiyi Daoist Palace thrives vigorously, relying on various production techniques downloaded from the Empire, along with numerous professional enhancements from the Daoist Palace Master, the Heaven and Earth Primordial Spirit in Taiyuan Realm has seen remarkable improvement, the foundation of Taiyi Daoist Palace experiencing substantial growth.

Recently, the Three Heroes and Two Talents and that batch of new Divinity Transformation ascensions over a millennium, have led Taiyi Daoist Palace to thoroughly grasp the Great Trend of Heaven and Earth, incorporating the four seas cultivation realm into its territory, becoming the true Master of Taiyuan.
