First Immortal of the Sword

Chapter 1644 - Repeated Victories

Thus far, the Immortal Realm had suffered four casualties in the Immortal-Demon Deathmatch.

Now, the demons of the Beyond had four casualties too!

Of them, Fu Xuesheng and Feng Chi had died at Yu Sheng’s hands.

The other two, Jin Wugen and Bai Qi, had died at Su Yi’s hands.

Just looking at the casualties, it might have seemed both camps were evenly matched, but Su Yi’s arrival was an entirely unexpected variable. He put unprecedented pressure on the demons of the Beyond!

No one in the Immortal Realm’s camp had anticipated this, but the demons couldn’t possibly have anticipated it either!

When the experts of the Immortal Realm’s camp saw that Su Yi planned to continue fighting, their blood heated up, and their hearts surged with excitement.

“Hmph! The deathmatch has only just begun. Don’t get excited too early!” a Demon King snorted coldly.

“Hah? Do you really think a Universe Realm Immortal can kill all eighteen of our Spirit Domain’s Demon Nobles?”

“Just wait until we’ve killed the little wretch! We’ll show the Immortal Realm what’s what!”

One Demon King after another shouted, their voices resounding throughout heaven and earth.

There was a disturbance in the Immortal Realm’s ranks, and their expressions shifted. It was true; the demons had only lost four combatants thus far.

Fourteen Demon Nobles had yet to fight, including the unrivaled Yin Beiwu!

Yin Xiaotian was even more direct. “Fu Yingzhen, you’re next!”

“Got it!” A fair, smooth-skinned man in black robes stepped onto the battlefield.

Fu Yingzhen.

A peak Demon Noble of the Floating Demons.

Boom!

Silver demonic flames surged throughout heaven and earth, like a sea of lava bursting through a dam, blanketing everything around him.

At the same time, one defensive secret treasure after another appeared around him; drumsticks, bells, flags, and treasure pagodas, among others. All of them emanated appalling power.

But that wasn’t the end of it. Fu Yingzhen clasped his hands, forming seals, and rings of demonic flame appeared around him, overlapping to protect his entire body.

The sight left the experts of the Immortal Realm wide-eyed and tongue-tied. Fu Yungzhen’s caution would have been obvious to anyone!

His meticulous caution seemed bone deep. The battle hadn’t even begun yet, but he’d already established airtight defenses!

Over in the demons’ camp, although the crowd found this display a bit shameful, they still felt reassured. Jin Wugen and Bai Qi’s deaths were a clear demonstration of Su Yi’s terrifyingness. He was their greatest rival in this Immortal-Demon Deathmatch. The more meticulous Fu Yingzhen was, the less likely that something would go awry.

But when Su Yi saw this, he couldn’t help but snicker.

He stretched, rising to his full height. Earlier, he’d stood there unmoving, but now, he stepped into the air. He’d chosen to attack directly!

“Get him!” Fu Yingzhen bellowed.

The vast sea of lava swept toward Su Yi.

Su Yi neither fled nor dodged. His body emanated dazzling, stingingly bright sword intent as he charged right through, cleaving through the lava like a knife.

Boom!

He tore a rift through the endless lava blanketing heaven and earth. Nothing could stand in Su Yi’s way.

Fu Yingzhen’s expression shifted. He raised his hand and clapped. “Suppress!”

One ring of glittering silver demonic flame after another whooshed through the air, forming towering mountains that descended onto the world below.

But it was still useless!

Su Yi was unstoppable. The mountains of flames snapped and popped like soap bubbles before him.

In the blink of an eye, he was right in front of Fu Yingzhen.

Su Yi’s sheer momentum made Fu Yingzhen’s scalp go numb with fright. He instantly called upon everything he had in reserve; he simply didn’t dare to hold back.

“Defend!”

“Crush!”

“Cleave!”

“Burst!”

One inscrutable demonic invocation after another ran out. The drumstick, bell, flag, and treasure pagoda rumbled and lit up, descending upon Su Yi with terrifying force.

But it was then that Su Yi attacked.

His sleeves billowed around him as he pressed his fingers into a sword and slashed the air.

Boom!

Sword qi descended from the heavens like a waterfall of stars, boundless, grand, and tyrannical beyond measure.

Fu Yingzhen’s defenses were instantly suppressed, and his treasures were sent flying.

When this slash descended, Fu Yingzhen did everything in his power, but his attempts were instantly crushed. They couldn’t block even a single attack.

“No——!” Fu Yingzhen shrieked in terror, then turned to flee.

But it was as if that slash had locked onto him. There was no breaking free!

In the end, the boundless sword qi exploded his physical body. Even his soul was reduced to powder. He was completely, utterly eradicated.

That terrifying sword qi continued its descent, leaving a massive chasm in the ground. It seemed bottomlessly deep, and heaven and earth shook around it.

Fu Yingzhen died beneath a single slash!!

That endlessly tyrannical slash left even the Immortal Lords covered in cold sweat. All of them gasped.

As for the Demon Nobles? Their hearts quivered with fright, and their expressions shifted dramatically.

That slash broke through everything in its path!

Most terrifying of all was that Fu Yingzhen had focused all of his power on his defenses, and he’d been extraordinarily meticulous, but it was to no avail. He still died beneath a single slash!!

When they replayed Su Yi’s battles thus far, all of them were like this. He struck with overwhelming force, destroying each opponent in a single strike.

No exceptions!

A fifth Demon Noble had died in battle. This was the third to die at Su Yi’s hands.

Fu Yingzhen’s death left the demons increasingly startled, and it put unprecedented pressure on them.

As for the immortals? They were more excited than ever before. The Universe Realm Immortal all of them had looked down on had gone on to win three battles in a row. It was like he was invincible!

His contemptuous bearing made even the Immortal Kings sigh with admiration, and he left them repeatedly astonished.

“Brother Pei, where did you find this Fellow Daoist Su?” Madam Xiangyun couldn’t help but be curious. By now, she fully understood why Pei Hongjing went so far as to put his life on the line to vouch for Su Yi and send him into battle.

This young man was simply unbelievably, astonishingly strong! He’d surprised and delighted them over and over again!

Pei Hongjing had a strange look in his eyes. He murmured, “You ask me, but who should I ask? He's the one who found us.”

He was as astonished and delighted as the rest of them!

Meanwhile, Su Yi’s voice rang out once more. “Next.”

He spoke in monotone, without the slightest ripple of emotion, yet his voice shook the hearts of everyone present!

But this time, none of the demons wanted to accept his challenge.

“Hahaha! So, you demons are capable of fear after all?” One of the Immortal Kings burst into laughter. Soon, everyone in the Seventh Gate of Heaven was laughing alongside him.

The demons were enraged.

“Allow me, Uncle.” Yin Beiwu’s face was calm and indifferent, but his eyes surged with murderous intent.

“No.” Yin Xiaotian refused, then transmitted, “You’re our ace. How could we send you into battle now? Let the others probe the boy’s limits!”

Yin Beiwu instantly fell silent. He could read between the lines; Yin Xiaotian wanted to use the other Demon Nobles to fritter away Su Yi’s cultivation!

“Feng Ming, you’re next!” Yin Xiaotian said gravely.

“I...” Feng Ming was a bit hesitant.

“What, are you afraid?” Yin Xiaotian’s expression darkened. “Don’t forget that you signed a life-or-death contract!”

Feng Ming’s expression shifted. He gnashed his teeth and nodded. “Very well!”

He then turned and walked onto the battlefield and fought with everything he had.

But he still seemed pathetically weak against Su Yi. Mere moments passed before Feng Ming was suppressed and killed. His last, desperate shriek lingered in the air, making all of the demons’ expressions unsightly.

Su Yi’s tyrannical display of force had intimidated the surviving Demon Nobles, but this was a deathmatch. They had no choice but to fight!

Before long, the seventh battle began. This time, Su Yi's opponent was a woman in military attire. She had a fierce, powerful aura, and she was even stronger than Fu Yingzhen.

But she still only lasted three strikes before she took a sword to the forehead and died on the spot!

The eighth Demon Noble shattered into pieces beneath Su Yi’s fist.

The ninth Demon Noble died brutally in a clash between souls.

The tenth Demon Noble was crushed to bits beneath Su Yi’s feet.

And the eleventh...

One bloody, brutal death played out after another, repeatedly shaking the demons’ will to fight. Their expressions were bleak, and they felt incomparably stifled.

The Demon Kings’ faces were ashen. They longed to enter the battlefield and kill Su Yi with their own two hands.

He was just a Universe Realm Immortal, yet he seemed invincible. He stood proudly on the battlefield, killing one Demon Noble after another. Who wouldn’t have been furious?

The worst part was that none of their combatants could even injure Su Yi!

Su Yi’s continuous victories repeatedly astonished the immortals, too. The cheers and joyous cries had disappeared. Now, they gazed at Su Yi’s tall, upright figure in a daze, as if they were looking upon a deity performing a miracle!

By now, even Garrison Master Shen Qingshi and the other Immortal Kings were completely convinced of Su Yi’s strength.

But Su Yi didn’t care about any of that. With the experiences of his past life, killing a few Demon Nobles put no pressure on him at all.

The reason for this was simple. As soon as his opponents entered the battlefield, he could discern their origins, cultivation base, their abilities, and even their cultivation technique.

Su Yi naturally had methods specifically designed to counter them, too.

Furthermore, he’d been able to kill Immortal Lords even in the early stages of the Universe Realm, and he’d reached the late-stage Universe Realm not long ago, during his time in Blue Cliff Academy.

Never mind these Demon Nobles; even the Sword Fanatic, an unrivaled Immortal Lord who’d survived the Age of Fallen Immortals, had long since ceased to be his opponent.

Dealing with these Demon Nobles of the Beyond was nothing at all. All he had to do was keep killing until all of them were dead!

Time slipped by.

“No! I don’t want to die!”

A terrified shriek rang out. The fifteenth Demon Noble completely broke down and fled in panic.

Unfortunately for him, Su Yi cut him in two in seconds. His fresh blood splattered the air.

The dense smell of blood permeated the battlefield, assailing the nostrils.

By now, thirteen Demon Nobles had died at Su Yi’s hands. He’d crushed his opponents as if they were made of rotten wood. He hadn’t even been injured yet!

Over in the demons’ camp, Yin Beiwu was already visibly enraged, and murderous intent had accumulated in his heart. By now, he could no longer take it. He promptly rose and said, “No need to wait any longer. I’m up next!”
