Chapter 1024: Empress Yin’s Sword Technique

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

Ever since his Tendon Changing Classic reached Grandmaster Realm, Happy’s strength improved by leaps and bounds . This time, when he faced Empress Yin, he was filled with confidence that he would not lose .

However, it was precisely because of this reason that Happy understood something in great gloom . Even Empress Yin, who was at the peak of Myth Realm, would have a hard time making him feel threatened .

Even if he did not activate true origin aura, with just Tendon Changing Classic’s ability to reduce damage by ten percent, he could still fight head on against Zhu Yuyan .

When it came to defense, if he combined Indestructible Body and Tendon Changing Classic, wore a full set of fourth-echelon demon vessels, along with his astonishing Affinity, he could already withstand Empress Yin’s attacks .

His Wave-like Subtle Steps was profound and peerless, and when it came to his ability to move around, he would not lose to Empress Yin .

With these two factors, along with Recondite Steel Heavy Sword as well as Great Demonic World Destruction Art, once Happy got out of the Buddha statues, he could already fight on equal grounds with Empress Yin .

Recondite Steel Heavy Sword!

Even though when the aura enveloped him, Happy would still slow down a little, he could change his sword momentum in time, and while in a defensive stance, he swung his Recondite Steel Heavy Sword, easily allowing him to block all of Empress Yin’s attacks . After all, the block rate for Recondite Steel Heavy Sword was incredibly high .

“Faction Master Zhu, you don’t need to show any mercy to me . ” Happy mocked Empress Yin while he blocked her attacks .

“Brat, I’m going to pull out all your teeth!”

A longsword flashing with cold light was drawn by the illusory and wispy figure . In an instant, it turned into multiple sparks that went flying at Happy from different directions .

Happy felt a little fearful .

He originally only wanted to try stimulating Empress Yin into attacking him . He did not expect that she had indeed been preserving her strength . Before this, he had never heard of Empress Yin using any sword techniques before .

He could already be considered pretty good to be able to force Empress Yin Zhu Yuyan to use a weapon .

At the same time he felt smug, Happy also felt great pressure on his shoulders .

Empress Yin’s sword technique was strange and unfathomable . Its speed was also astonishing, and with Sky Demon Aura, it instantly became much more threatening than before .

Happy’s Recondite Steel Heavy Sword had always been heavy, so his speed could not compare to Empress Yin . Right now, he was in Sky Demon Aura, making him even slower .

Empress Yin’s act of suddenly switching to a sword technique had caused Happy, who was already used to Empress Yin’s fighting style, to panic a little .

Even though Happy spent all his energy into sensing Empress Yin’s sword trajectory so that he could use his full strength to block the attacks, he was restrained by the limitations within Recondite Steel Heavy Sword and Great Demonic Sword Art . Even when he tried to fend against her attacks with everything he had, he could not completely fend against Empress Yin’s offense, and soon, a few bloody gashes appeared on his body .

The appearance of the wounds shocked Happy, but at the same time, he could not help but feel a little relieved .

In truth, he had come here this time in search of Shi Zhixuan because he wanted to figure out the profound and unfathomable thing that would only appear between life and death so that he could reach a breakthrough for his Marrow Cleansing Classic, so he had no problems with facing Empress Yin, who was about the same level as Shi Zhixuan . But after his strength increased, he did not feel pressured when he faced Empress Yin, so there was no way he could be immersed in this feeling between life and death .

But right now, after Empress Yin switched to a sword technique, she became even more brutal and dangerous, and she finally made Happy feel a little nervous .

‘I have to gain an understanding! But where is the understanding between life and death?’

When the seventeenth wound appeared on his body, Happy continued blocking Empress Yin’s violent offense as he sensed the changes in his body .

But he was only disappointed .

His Marrow Cleansing Classic was as dark as ever . It was still stuck at Level 1 . 00 even if he was already drenched in blood and looked incredibly pathetic .

‘Just what am I supposed to do?’ Happy’s forehead was covered in sweat .

Empress Yin and Shi Zhixuan were already the most powerful evil cult elites he could think of in the Chinese server . If he could not sense the profound state of being caught between life and death and reach Mad Monk’s requirements, there might be no one in the Chinese server who could help him push his Marrow Cleansing Classic to a higher degree .

‘Do I really have to die once?’ Happy felt a little helpless .

Suddenly, Empress Yin’s ever-changing and blurry figure suddenly disappeared from around him, and her Sky Demon Aura also vanished .

“Huh?” When the pressure on him was reduced, Happy felt as if the pressure of ten thousand tonnes was removed, and he could move at ease .

However, as Empress Yin appeared with her body being in a state that could be clearly seen on a broken wall, and Happy’s pupils shrank .

Once Empress Yin reappeared, she did not say anything .

Zhu Yuyan’s expression was as dark as thunderclouds, and she looked as if lightning was about to crack above her head . Even after such a long time, she had not been able to kill this Shaolin Temple secular disciple, and this was something she could not accept . It made her incredibly furious .

Her gaze had already turned as cold as ice . She looked down and stared at Happy in a brutal and cold manner .

Empress Yin’s voice had already become even colder . While she spoke, she gently spread her arms, and the longsword in her hand turned into a black ray of light that caused the air around her to instantly turn dark and much gloomier .

“It has been a long time since anyone forced me to use my sword…”

“And it has been a long time since anyone forced me to this extent . I have to admit, You have indeed made me change my opinion of you . It would have been wonderful if you were a disciple of the sacred order, but unfortunately, you aren’t . ”

When she faced such a strong, talented, and outstanding disciple of the righteous path, Empress Yin already had such a strong killing intent rise in her that she wanted to destroy everything, and she could not control it .

As Empress Yin said those three words slowly, the entire area seemed to have frozen slightly when Empress Yin’s qi suddenly became powerful and fierce .

The black light shot through Happy’s body in one go .

At the moment he saw Empress Yin’s eyes, the black sword light seemed to have fused together with Empress Yin’s gaze . It fused with a peerlessly destructive sword will and the might of a Myth Realm martial artist, and Happy had not made it in time to bring his hands up to parry the attack .

His body was pierced through effortlessly by a fierce, black light .

Blood poured out from his chest .

At the moment Happy was struck by the sword, a petite, snow-white figure shot over like a startled bird from the distance before she stopped in front of Empress Yin Zhu Yuyan .

When she landed, she moved two steps forward swiftly before she immediately stopped .

The woman with the white veil cast Empress Yin a complicated glance before she saw Happy, who had his chest pierced through and swaying on his feet . Her eyes became dark for a moment before she released a grave but pleasant sigh . Then, she seemed to have noticed a barely visible shade of paleness on Empress Yin’s face . So, in her shock, she turned her head around to cast Happy a few glances, and she could not help but release a shocked cry . “I didn’t expect that you would be forced to use Sky Demon Sword Technique even though it has been years since you stopped using weapons . ”

“Hmph! You have good judgment, lass . ” Empress Yin snorted in contempt . “But that boy who is about to die isn’t any weaker than you are, and no one knows who taught him his martial arts . He’s incredibly hard to deal with, and even I have been forced to use quite a lot of methods in my disposal to attack him . ”

There was no way Shi Feixuan would not be able to tell . The unfamiliar, young martial artist behind her still had Empress Yin’s sword will remaining in him after he had his sword pierced through by Empress Yin . His ming also seemed to have been broken, and it was no longer in his control . Regardless of how good he previously was, he was already finished .

“I didn’t expect that you would actually use Sky Demon Sword Technique’s Heart Demon’s Sword against a junior, even though it uses up a lot of true origin . ”

“Your mistress sure spent a lot of time telling you stories . I didn’t expect that she would have told you about Heart Demon’s Sword as well . ” Empress Yin’s eyes shone warily .

Shi Feixuan drew her sword out with a reverse grip . “Heart Demon’s Sword is the most domineering move in Sky Demon Sword Technique . It will fuse with the user’s will, true origin, and sword will, and its power is unparallelled . Even the Sword Classic from Kind Boathouse can only somewhat withstand it after we reach the state of Clear Sword . Empress Yin, this is the ultimate technique you relied on to become famous in the past . There is no way I would not know about it in detail . ”

She stopped talking for a moment . Then, Shi Feixuan’s tone changed, and she said, “Besides, I also know that once you use Heart Demon’s Sword, not only will you up quite a lot of true origin and have a bit of your strength compromised, your will can also be shaken at any moment and be injured . At this moment, it’s already difficult for you to bring out even seven-tenths of your usual power . ”

There was no way Empress Yin would not understand what Shi Feixuan was trying to imply . When she saw her pointing her longsword at her, she quirked her eyebrow . “Even if I only have half of my strength left, if I want to destroy you, I can do so with the flip of my hand . ”

“Then, pardon the rudeness!” Shi Feixuan shouted before she brandished her longsword . A dazzling and dangerous sword river instantly appeared in front of Empress Yin .

“Good! As expected of the best disciple belonging to Kind Boathouse’s Fan Suqing . I didn’t expect that your Clear Sword has already improved!”

Empress Yin’s expression changed, and she retreated .

Shi Feixuan had already reached Myth Realm a few years ago, and right now, her sword technique had improved once more . Naturally, this shocked Empress Yin, and she finally felt a little threatened .

“Thank you for praising me, senior!”

Shi Feixuan might sound polite, but her sword attack did not weaken in the slightest . Instead, it just became even fiercer as it drew closer to Empress Yin .

Faction Master Zhu Yuyan of Yin Weed Faction was forced into a disadvantage with just one sword slash by Shi Feixuan . She had to retreat into the depths of Dafo Temple .

The two women had completely forgotten about Happy, who had not died on the spot despite the fact that he was pierced through .

To Empress Yin, Happy was definitely going to die after he was struck by his Heart Demon’s Sword .

Shi Feixuan also believed that a person who had Empress Yin’s destructive sword will and whose mind had broken could still be saved . Right now, she just wanted to seize the chance when Empress Yin’s strength had been largely reduced so that she could take revenge for this young righteous disciple whose name she did not even know .

But they did not know that three seconds after they left, after the wisp of sword will remaining in Happy’s body ran rampant in him to destroy a large number of Happy’s meridian systems, it finally disappeared without a trace .

However, that hint of sword will did not kick Happy into the cycle of reincarnation, even though he was already at Death’s door .

It was because of Tendon Changing Classic’s existence that caused Happy’s meridian system to have a greater capacity to accomodate qi and tenacity .

While the sword will crashed into Happy to run rampant in him, it was in time to stimulate the true origin in Happy to protect him .

While his true origin enveloped him, the sword quickly crumbled and was dissolved .

However, Happy had to give up on most of his true qi because of it . His face was pale, and he became incredibly weak .

The weakness in his body made Happy have a much more miserable time when he faced the pressure on his will .

The pressure came from Empress Yin delivering the most powerful strike with everything in her power to destroy Happy’s willpower effortlessly .

His will was like snow meeting the sun .

Darkness descended on him .

His weak body practically crushed Happy’s final bit of consciousness . While his mind swam, he felt as if there was a voice singing a hypnotic song to him, telling him to sleep .
