Chapter 979: The Entire Family Is Invincible
Chapter 979: The Entire Family Is Invincible
Ye Guan had already spent ten years inside the tiny pagoda. He had done nothing but fold his spacetime grids. He believed that it wasn't that hard, but when the compression actually started, he ended up getting a reality check.
Folding the spacetime grids was like overlapping the spacetime energy within each grid. The spacetime energy would undergo a qualitative change, and compressing them again was like another qualitative transformation.
At this point, just like Yi Nian, he had to rely on the Qingxuan Sword, it would be impossible to achieve with his strength alone.
Only by using the Qingxuan Sword as a medium and a suppressor did he manage to continue. Without the Qingxuan Sword, the folded spacetime would implode.
It was worth mentioning that over the past ten years, his understanding of spacetime had improved greatly along with his soul. Folding spacetime consumed an enormous amount of soul energy, and the consumption was a form of training as well.
However, Ye Guan discovered that his soul was still too weak. Even the Qingxuan Sword couldn't make up for the gap at all. As a result, Ye Guan had to consume another Tianxing Fruit!
It was an additional hundred million years' worth of cultivation!
The Tianxing Fruit's effects were nothing short of miraculous!
The Tianxing Fruit didn't allow him to break through to the next realm, but it enhanced his soul and bloodlines. Of course, the improvements to his Mad Demon Bloodline and Mortal Bloodline were minimal, but his Phoenix Emperor Bloodline improved by leaps and bounds.
Among his three bloodlines, the Phoenix Emperor Bloodline was inferior to the Mad Demon Bloodline and the Mortal Bloodline, but it was improving continuously, narrowing the distance between the other two.
Aside from taking the Tianxing Fruit himself, Ye Guan also gave one to Ao Qianqian. The Tianxing Fruit was even more beneficial to her since she was from the dragon race. It not only increased her bloodline and soul power but also greatly enhanced her physical body.
As the days passed, Ye Guan made steady progress in compressing the folded spacetime grids. After a few years, he finally compressed the folded spacetime grids to the thickness of a book. The power contained within was truly world-shattering, and even Ye Guan was scared of it.
Just then, Yi Nian and Jing An approached him with solemn faces.
Yi Nian looked at the spacetime before Ye Guan with a heavy expression and asked, "Can you control it?"
Ye Guan said in a deep voice, "There shouldn't be a problem."
With that, he closed his eyes and sensed the Qingxuan Sword. At this point, the Qingxuan Sword had already fused with the compressed spacetime.
Just then, Little Pagoda's voice echoed. "There's something wrong with that thing. Don't release it here."
Ye Guan nodded. If the spacetime in front of him were to be released, the pagoda definitely wouldn't be able to withstand it, as the Qingxuan Sword was inside the compressed spacetime!
Yi Nian suggested, "Shall we test it outside?"
Ye Guan nodded. A moment later, the three of them—Ye Guan, Yi Nian, and Jing An—arrived in a starry void.
Ye Guan looked around the starry void. With a thought on his end, the sword in front of him shot forward.
Boom!
Everything in the distance before the three of them were reduced to nothingness...
Moments later, a pitch-black void appeared. It was so dark that it seemed bottomless.
Complete annihilation! Jing An's eyes widened, and she stopped licking her candied hawthorn.
Ye Guan clenched his hands, and his eyes were full of excitement. His sword technique was even stronger than he had imagined!
The most important thing was that this sword only utilized the power of spacetime and the Qingxuan Sword. He hadn't even used his sword intent or his bloodline power. If he added his sword intent and bloodline power...
The thought of it alone filled him with excitement and anticipation!
There was still time!
With that, Ye Guan continued his studies. However, he began integrating his sword intent and decided to add Lifespan Severance into it...

Two days later, Qiu Baiyi sat cross-legged in the air, and his hands were resting on his knees. His eyes were closed in meditation.
Suddenly, footsteps echoed from afar.
Qiu Baiyi opened his eyes and saw a young man about a hundred meters away from him.
The young man was holding a sword, and he was none other than Ye Guan.
Upon seeing Ye Guan, a smile appeared on Qiu Baiyi's face. "Young Master Ye..."
Before he could finish speaking, Ye Guan swung his sword fiercely from afar.
Ye Guan had attacked without hesitation!
Seeing this, Qiu Baiyi's expression darkened. He flicked his sleeve in response.
Bang!
Ye Guan's sword stopped several meters away from Qiu Baiyi, unable to advance even an inch. However, Qiu Baiyi's brows furrowed as a sword made out of sword intent had somehow appeared behind him.
Swoosh!
The sword pierced empty space, as Qiu Baiyi had already retreated a hundred meters away. But as soon as he stopped, the spacetime around him transformed into strange grids. In an instant, a million sword lights emerged.
Each sword carried the power of spacetime!
To make matters worse, Ye Guan also wielded the Qingxuan Sword and slashed down fiercely at Qiu Baiyi. The attack also carried the power of spacetime!
Qiu Baiyi's expression shifted slightly at the sight. He wanted to retreat, but it was too late.
Boom!
The Ascension World was obliterated.
Ye Guan's face turned deathly pale.
Qiu Baiyi stood frozen in place, gradually becoming translucent. Just as Ye Guan relaxed, the translucent Qiu Baiyi solidified again, and he returned to normal just moments later.
Ye Guan's face darkened. It's useless?
Qiu Baiyi stared at Ye Guan and praised, "A sword to sever a hundred million years' worth of lifespan—your sword technique is remarkable."
Ye Guan asked in a deep voice, "Why are you unharmed?"
Qiu Baiyi laughed, "It seems that you've overlooked something here. I'm not human. I'm an Evil Dao. As an Evil Dao, my lifespan isn't something that human cultivators can compare to."
Ye Guan furrowed his brows. He had indeed overlooked that fact.
"I know you're slowly the energy you just spent. No rush. I'll wait for you to recover, as I'm also waiting for some old friends. In the meantime, I'd like to chat with you since this is our first meeting and certainly our last," Qiu Baiyi asked.
Ye Guan calmly asked, "Is there really anything left for us to talk about?"
Qiu Baiyi smiled. "Of course. To be honest, I'm quite curious about your family."
"No need to be curious. I'll tell you straight. my father is invincible, my grandfather is invincible, my uncle is invincible, and my aunt is invincible!"
Qiu Baiyi was momentarily stunned, and then he laughed. "Your whole family is invincible?"
Ye Guan nodded. "I'm the weakest."
Qiu Baiyi stared at Ye Guan. "Are you trying to fool me?"
"Take a guess."
Qiu Baiyi laughed heartily, "I'm guessing you're telling me half the truth. Your family definitely has a few strong members, but not everyone is strong, right?"
Ye Guan nodded. "You guessed right."
Qiu Baiyi's smile faded away.
From his dealings with Ye Guan, Qiu Baiyi had come to respect him. This young man wasn't just some brainless member of the younger generation. Both his strength and intelligence were among the best in the vast expanse, so his backers were bound to be even more terrifying.
He knew the people behind Ye Guan were strong, but he had no idea just how strong they were.
Any speculation was meaningless, as only by fighting could he find out.
Sensing something, Qiu Baiyi looked up.
Two stunning women were up above, staring at the unfolding scene.
They were none other than High Goddess Tianxuan and High Goddess Tianyun.
High Goddess Tianyun remarked, "As expected, he's been hiding his strength."
The two had concealed their presence, but Qiu Baiyi still noticed them, indicating that he had indeed been hiding his true power.
High Goddess Tianxuan remarked, "When I chased him that day, he hardly fought back and focused on fleeing. Clearly, it wasn't that he couldn't beat me; he was simply hiding his strength, waiting to reveal it at a crucial moment."
High Goddess Tianxuan glanced at Ye Guan below but said nothing.
High Goddess Tianyun understood High Goddess Tianxuan's thoughts. She looked at Ye Guan and remarked, "That guy is smart. He definitely knows that Qiu Baiyi is hiding his strength. The only question is, how is he going to deal with it?"
High Goddess Tianxuan slowly closed her eyes. "The people behind him should appear soon."
"Aren't you curious?" High Goddess Tianyun asked, smiling.
High Goddess Tianxuan remained silent.
High Goddess Tianyun chuckled. She knew that Tianxuan was curious. How could she not be?
"If someone does surpass our Tianxing Civilization in strength, have you ever thought about what will happen to our civilization?"
"In that case," High Goddess Tianyun said, "Either Yi Nian or Jing An will become the next Tianxing Ruler!"
High Goddess Tianxuan was silent.
***
Below, Qiu Baiyi withdrew his gaze and smiled. He didn't care about the arrival of High Goddess Tianxuan and High Goddess Tianyun. He looked at Ye Guan in the distance, who had fully recovered by now.
Ye Guan raised his head and asked, "Shall we have a fight?"
Qiu Baiyi shook his head.
"I won't use the Qingxuan Sword," Ye Guan remarked. His strength had increased significantly, and he was eager to have a good fight. Qiu Baiyi was undoubtedly a worthy opponent.
However, Qiu Baiyi shook his head again. "There's no point in us fighting. You can't kill me, and if I were to kill you, the people behind you wouldn't allow it.
"You'd end up calling for help, anyway, so why waste our time and energy?"
Ye Guan was about to speak when powerful auras swept over him from the distant starry sky.
The starfield boiled beneath the powerful auras!
Qiu Baiyi stared at Ye Guan and grinned. "Young Master Ye, my people are here! Now, it's your turn to call for reinforcements. This time, we're fighting a group battle!"
