C4246 Repelling the Tide
Ye Feng shouted in a low voice. He decisively waved his sword to force back the approaching Heaven Swallowing Sparrow. Then, he grabbed the old man in the Taoist robe. The old man was caught by him and immediately attacked him. He had completely lost his mind.
Seeing this, Ye Feng couldn't help but shake his head helplessly. Then, he used the hilt of his sword to hit the back of the old man's neck, knocking him out. Then, he carried the old man and continued to fight with the Heaven-Devouring Sparrow.
Because he had to protect the old man, Ye Feng couldn't use his full strength in battle. He was at a disadvantage when facing four Rank Eight Sky Swallowing Sparrows.
Fortunately, the Blood Killing Sword could steal the opponent's blood and maintain Ye Feng's condition. Only then could he continue to fight.
"Damn human!"
At that moment, the leader of the Heaven Swallowing Sparrow's angry roar sounded. Ye Feng subconsciously looked over and saw that the huge leader of the Heaven Swallowing Sparrow was in a sorry state. There were deep wounds on his body, and blood was flowing down from the sky like it was free.
Ye Han, who was fighting against the Sky Swallowing Sparrow, was also covered in blood. His breath was like thunder. The battle between the two had reached its climax. Both of them had used all their hidden cards and were badly wounded.
"I will make you die without a grave!"
The leader of the Sky Swallowing Sparrow roared and suddenly reached out his sharp claws. There was an extremely bright cold light shining on his claws. Then, thousands of claws appeared in the air and attacked towards Ye Han.
This was the Heaven Devouring Sparrow leader's innate skill. The Heaven Urging Claw could destroy everything, and even beasts of the same cultivation would be scared of this skill.
However, at this moment, Ye Han wasn't scared at all. The bloodline of Desolates within his body was roaring, and he had awakened a skill from the depths of his bloodline. Battle-intent surged in his eyes.
"Deadly Slaughter!"
Ye Han roared and slashed out with the Longsword in his hand. At this moment, the heavens and earth seemed to have fallen into a motionless state. All the colors in the world disappeared, leaving behind only a pure and extremely dense sword light that split open the heavens and earth and slashed towards the ten thousand feet sharp claw.
"Chi!"
The next moment, the claw was cut into pieces, and the unstoppable sword light landed on the leader of the Heaven Swallowing Sparrow army.
"Puchi!"
The body of the leader of the Heaven Swallowing Sparrow Race was cut apart by the sword light. Boiling hot blood poured down from the sky like a waterfall, and his magnificent body fell to the ground.
"Whoosh!"
Ye Han struggled to breathe, and his face was extremely pale. The terrifying skill that had awakened in the bloodline of Desolates had used up all of his blood.
"Come here!"
The next moment, Ye Han waved his hand at the blood that the leader of the Sky Swallowing Sparrow had spilled. The blood was immediately drawn in front of him, and then Ye Han opened his mouth wide and started to swallow the blood like crazy.
Ye Feng's spirits were lifted when he saw this scene. His entire body was trembling with excitement. His big brother's strength was too strong. He could even kill such a powerful leader of the Sky Swallowing Sparrow with a single sword strike.
At the same time, Ye Feng also comprehended the sword strike that Ye Han had used from the bloodline of the Desolate. It was the Slaughtering and Destruction Slash.
"I'll use the few of you to test the power of this technique!"
Ye Feng looked at the four high-tier Qi-controlling Birds surrounding him. The Blood Killing Sword in his hand also released an extremely bright and dense sword light. Although the power of this sword light wasn't as strong as Ye Han's, it still couldn't be underestimated.
Facing Ye Feng's sword strike, the four high-tier Qi-controlling Heaven Swallowing Sparrows' pupils shrank, and all the feathers on their bodies stood up. They felt an incomparably terrifying and deadly aura.
"Screech!"
The Heaven Swallowing Sparrows cried out in fear. They turned around and tried to escape, but how could their speed be faster than the sword light? In the next moment, a dense sword light swept across, and the four Heaven Swallowing Sparrows froze on the spot at the same time.
"Puchi!"
After a moment of silence, the bodies of the four Heaven Swallowing Sparrows split open at the same time. Their corpses and blood fell down together. Ye Feng's eyes lit up. He decisively controlled the Blood Killing Sword to steal all the blood.
"Rumble!"
A large amount of blood rushed into his body and transformed into pure energy. It surged and rumbled in his meridians. Ye Feng's cultivation base was rapidly increasing. When it reached the critical point, there was an explosion in his body, and he broke through to the next realm.
"Rank 4 Qi Control!"
Ye Feng's eyes lit up. The battle had allowed him to successfully break through to Rank Four of the Qi Control realm, and his strength had increased once again. Now that he had activated his bloodline, he was confident that he could easily kill Rank Eight of the Qi Control realm and fight against Rank Nine of the Qi Control realm.
At this moment, the surrounding Heaven Swallowing Sparrows began to turn and flee. With the leader of the Heaven Swallowing Sparrows and the large number of high-tier Qi-controlling Heaven Swallowing Sparrows killed, the Heaven Swallowing Sparrows were scared out of their wits and did not dare to continue fighting.
Seeing that the Heaven Swallowing Sparrows were fleeing, Ye Feng did not stop them. Instead, he ordered his guards to gather together so that they would not be separated from each other by the fleeing wave of Heaven Swallowing Sparrows.
Finally, when all the Sky Swallowing Sparrows had left, only Ye Feng and his group were left in the sky. Ye Feng looked around at the crowd and found that there were no major injuries. Only two or three guards had died.
"It's all thanks to the vine juice and the stone creature's fragments."
The Tu Alliance was full of joy. His body was covered in blood, but he wasn't injured. This was because he had eaten the vine juice and the stone creature and kept on healing himself.
The other Personal Guards had to rely on the juice of the vines to heal themselves and the pieces of stone creatures to increase their physical defense. Only then were they able to survive this battle.
"Is this the old method?"
Ye Feng was shocked. If the personal guards were normal martial cultivators, more than half of the soldiers would have died in this rescue battle. However, only three people died while cultivating the old method. The difference was too obvious.
"The old method is a method of rapid progress, and it doesn't have any problems with a shaky foundation. Its only weakness is that savage beasts are hard to find these days, but we can see them everywhere in this secret realm."
Ye Han walked to Ye Feng's side with a smile on his face. He was also sighing at the power of the old method.
Everyone present cultivated the old method and the new method at the same time, so they could clearly feel the advantage of the old method. The fastest way to improve one's strength was the greatest benefit.
Of course, the new martial art wasn't completely useless. Whether it was qi maintenance, qi control, or martial art, each level had an extraordinary effect.
If he just cultivated the old martial art, even though his speed and body strength would be extraordinary, his combat power would be greatly reduced. Cultivating the new martial art and the old martial art at the same time was the best choice.
"Okay, let's leave this place first."
Ye Feng looked at the old man in his arms and then looked into the depths of the secret realm. He felt a little uneasy in his heart. This was a hint from his sixth sense.
These Heaven Swallowing Sparrow and the old man in the Taoist robe came from the depths of the secret realm. There might be some secret that he had to find out.
Unfortunately, although they had won this battle, most of the Heaven Devouring Sparrow's blood had already seeped into the ground and lost the ability to absorb it. This was a huge loss.
