Chapter 622: A Man of Two Lifetimes Experiences Something for the First Time

Collapsing, formless spatial pressure bore down on Su Yi from all sides, surging like a tidal wave.

It gave people the sense that the entire stretch of heaven and earth was crumbling and withering.

That invisible, immaterial current of sword qi was displayed through a spatial secret art. It was vast and boundless, terrifying beyond limit.

However, in Su Yi’s eyes, such a low-level spatial control method was riddled with flaws!

He stood in place, unmoving.

Clang!

The Abstruse God Sword hummed, and he slashed, imbuing his attack with the Great Five Elements Suppression Domain Sword’s power.

Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom!

One towering sword mountain after another rose up, forming a five-elemental formation in the sky.

Metal, wood, water, fire, and earth. Five types of divine radiance surged from the five sword mountains, connecting heaven and earth.

Just one attack had manifested five sword mountains. A power capable of suppressing the heavens and locking down all domains permeated the surrounding area.

Why was it called the Great Five Elements Suppression Domain Sword?

Because it used the Grand Dao of the Five Elements as its base to suppress all domains!

That’s where the “suppression” part of its name came from.

If it could suppress domains, how could it fail to suppress a mere spatial secret art?

The boundless spatial sword qi currents suddenly froze in place beneath the suppression of the five elemental sword mountains. They were like a slithering swarm of snakes trapped beneath enormous boulders.

No matter how much they struggled, they couldn’t move an inch.

From a distance, it seemed as if the rapidly crumbling, withering space was suddenly peaceful once more!

It was strange, like a scene frozen in place.

“This is bad!” The demonic infant cried out in alarm.

At the same time, Su Yi turned his sword’s edge over. The five majestic elemental sword mountains turned with it, then bore ruthlessly down.

Bang bang bang!

A series of explosions rang out, like the low rumbling of thunder. The demonic infant’s spatial sword qi currents crumbled, eroded to nothingness, as fragile as if they were made of paper.

The five elemental sword mountains continued downward, their power undiminished. This time, they were headed toward the infant.

Whoosh!

The demonic infant dodged without the slightest hesitation, blurring into a streak of red light and fleeing, quick as lightning.

However, as the five elemental sword mountains boomed and revolved, like the wheel of the five elements, five types of Grand Dao Mysterious Truths circulated with them. They created an incomparably shocking suction power.

The blur of blood-red light that was the demonic infant was effectively pulled into the elemental vortex. No matter how he struggled or tried to escape, the terrifying suction dragged him relentlessly back.

“Dammit! What kind of Sword Dao is this!?” The demonic infant’s face alternated between rage and alarm.

His consciousness was a portion of an Imperial Realm cultivator’s will, yet the power of this miraculous attack stunned even him.

Boom!

Five sword mountains descended, majestic and limitless.

A bone-chilling sense of danger made the infant’s face twitch. His eyes threatened to burst, and a shriek escaped his lips. “The Burning Spirit Blade!”

Suddenly, an ethereal blade of pure fire shot out of the infant’s head.

It was seven inches long, thin, and translucent. It blazed with clear and pure holy flames.

When it appeared, an aura spread forth, so terrifying that heaven and earth trembled beneath it.

Thud! Thud!

Li Changlin and the other distant onlookers?felt weakness?course through them, and they fell limply to the ground. The blood drained from their faces, and a suffocating sense of despair washed over them.

That power was just too terrifying.

Even watching from afar, they were thoroughly suppressed, both body and soul!

Bang!!

An explosion rang out. The blade of blazing clear flame shot into the sky, piercing through the elemental sword mountains, top to bottom. It encountered no resistance, like a knife cutting through tofu.

When the seven-inch blade shot up, the five elemental sword mountains trembled, then collapsed with a bang, shattering and dissipating into nothingness.

In just one attack, the demonic infant averted a potential crisis!

When he saw the blade’s unstoppable momentum, Su Yi couldn’t help but arch his brow. “Are you planning to fight me all out with that Imperial Will you’ve got sealed in your sea of consciousness?”

Sure, the little blade had neutralized his Great Five Elements Suppression Domain Sword, but he had to say that the infant’s performance was a bit disappointing….

Off in the distance, the demonic infant’s face was pallid, and his breathing was hurried. Beads of sweat appeared on his face, and his foot-tall body trembled uncontrollably.

Clearly, using the Spirit-Burning Blade was enormously draining!

However, the demonic infant paid his expenditures no heed. He fixed his cold, blood-red eyes intently on Su Yi, his little face hideously contorted and vicious as he shrieked, “Su Yi, you ruined my grand ambition! You must die for this!!”

His voice boomed like thunder, and it was rife with explosive fury and hatred.

Clang!

As he spoke, the seven-inch blade shot through the air, blurring as it slashed at Su Yi.

Heaven and earth shook.

A terrifying Imperial aura emanated from the blade and spread out.

It was visible even to the naked eye. Wherever the blade passed, the sky tore like cloth. The weapon opened a perfectly straight, narrow rift in the air.

The boundless blade light seemed capable of carving anything and everything in this world!

This was the power of the Imperial level. Never mind a Spiritual Manifestation Realm cultivator; even a Spiritual Incarnation cultivator would have struggled to block such an attack!

Su Yi didn’t?clash?with it head-on.

There was simply no need.

Back on Sumeru Immortal Island, when he clashed with nine monsters of the ancient era, Su Yi had found himself in a similar predicament.

At the end of the day, a battle like this was just a contest to see whose hidden cards were stronger.?Thus, when he saw the seven-inch blade fly toward him, Su Yi immediately drew his own weapon.

Whoosh!

He raised the Abstruse God Sword. Its inky, ethereal blade was coated in an energy fluctuation originating from the Sword of the Nine Hells.

Su Yi swung casually downward.

Clang!

The seven-inch blade and the Abstrue God Sword clashed, and a destructive energy fluctuation spread from the point of impact. Everywhere it passed, it threw the sky into disarray, and air currents surged and burst.

Heaven and earth changed and lost their radiance.

In the eyes of the distant martial artists, the sky seemed to crumble on impact. Everything was in chaos, and everything was falling apart.

It would have been no exaggeration to say that the sky was falling or that the earth was caving in beneath them!

This scene was just too terrifying. All of Bloodthistle Yao Mountain trembled violently. Countless rocks, trees, and grasses were destroyed, and churning clouds of dust filled the air.

Crunch!

The blazing seven-inch sword burst apart, inch by inch.

The demonic infant clutched his head, his expression agonized. A desperate shriek escaped his lips, “No, this isn’t possible! How could a mere Gathering Stars Realm cultivator like you block the power of my will?”

The demonic infant seemed utterly agonized. His entire body convulsed, and his miserable shrieks shook heaven and earth.

Once the seven-inch blade was completely destroyed——

Splurt!

The infant suddenly stiffened and coughed up a mouthful of golden blood.

“Su Yi! You ruined my plans! This lofty one will return, and when I do, I’ll slaughter my way through the Azure Continent, pluck your tendons, skin you alive, burn your bones, and scatter your ashes to the wind!” shrieked the demonic infant.

Unwillingness and resentment were written all over his face.

His voice still echoed through the air as he staggered back and fell from the sky.

“Is that so? In that case, I’ll be looking forward to it,” laughed Su Yi. He then reached through the air and pulled the infant toward him before he hit the ground.

The infant’s life force was weak, and his face was pallid. He’d curled into a ball, and even the robe condensed out of blood was turning into mist and dissipating.

Su Yi had never held an infant before.

Even in his past life, he’d never done anything of the sort.

When he picked up the demonic infant by the neck, he saw the infant’s innocent face contort in pain. He felt holding it like that seemed somehow inappropriate, so he used the crook of his arm to support the child’s whole body instead.

The infant relaxed in his arms, and even nudged closer to him. This was instinctive behavior for an infant.

Su Yi froze. Something seemed strange about this.

He stretched out his divine sense and inserted it into the infant’s body.

He soon discovered that the Imperial Will controlling the infant had disappeared completely.

To his astonishment, the infant’s own awareness hadn’t been completely destroyed. A stubborn remnant of awareness remained within its blood, like a tenacious weed.

Su Yi quickly discovered why this was the case. “So, it’s Spiritdemon Goldblood… No wonder the infant’s awareness wasn’t completely eliminated by that Imperial Realm cultivator’s will…”

Descendants of demons typically had inborn and distinctive talents.

Some of these talents existed within their bloodline, others within their spirit bones. Still others were branded in their organs. All were different, and their strengths were highly variable. contemporary romance

Spiritdemon Goldblood was among the best, and it was highly distinctive.

A demonic infant in possession of this talent had the innate ability to devour spirits and refine blood.

This type of talent lay in the bloodline. Those who had it were natural-born body refiners.

Should they pursue the path of the body cultivator and excavate their body’s potential, they were sure to become incomparably tyrannical body refiners. They could then prove their Dao with their fleshly bodies; even becoming an Emperor was well within the realm of possibility!

Of course, the crux of the matter was that infants with Spiritdemon Goldenblood kept their fundamental awareness within their blood.

Short of removing every last drop and refining it to nothingness, there was no way to remove such a child’s consciousness completely.

This was why this particular demonic infant was still alive.

Suddenly, Su Yi heard a tinkling noise and felt a dampness spreading at the front of his robes.

Su Yi looked down, the corners of his lips twitching.

The demonic infant in his arms had peed, drenching him….

The little tyke was smiling and fast asleep, seemingly perfectly content.

He had to admit it; the demonic infant now seemed no different from any other child. It looked as if it were carved out of jade, and it was guileless and innocent, with no sign of strangeness or wickedness.

He stared intently at the child in his arms, but he said nothing. He felt uncharacteristically uncertain.

He’d never been a father, and he had no heirs. He’d certainly never had an infant pee all over him like this.

A faint, strange feeling?welled?within his heart.

Throughout all his years, both in this life and the one before, he’d never held a baby before. He felt hesitant and uncertain.

In the end, he sighed, reached into the Snowbeetle Jade Pendant, and took out a set of clothes. They were his, so he had to bundle the infant like a sticky rice dumpling. Once the child was covered, he supported it with his left arm, then stared into the distance.

It was dusk, and the setting sun was as red as blood.

Li Changlin and the other martial artists stood in the distance, as dazed as clay statues.

There was no doubt about it. The battle they’d just witnessed shook them to the core.

Su Yi shook his head, turned, and shot toward the underground world at the bottom of the chasm. Before long, he’d disappeared from view.

There was still one thing he had to do while he was here: he had to rescue his former in-laws.

Meanwhile, off in the distance.

Li Changlin and the others reacted as if awakening from a dream. They looked at each other, all of them bewildered. A part of them still felt that they were dreaming; it just didn’t seem real.

The twenty-fourth day of the eleventh lunar month.

Su Yi ventured into the wilderness of Bloodthistle Yao Mountain all on his own, destroyed the Baleful Demon Heaven-Plundering Formation, slew an entire group of demonic cultivators, cut down the Spiritual Manifestation Realm Tu Baizhen, and exterminated the Imperial Will left within the demonic infant!

The martial artists who’d witnessed this were all too astonished to speak.
