I Have A Sword

Chapter 814: Call For Help Immediately

Getting Aunt or Uncle to work? Ye Guan shook his head and smiled. He ruffled Yi Nian's hair gently without saying anything in response.

Soon after, Yi Nian fell asleep.

Ye Guan looked up at the starry sky and saw multiple shooting stars. He chuckled to himself at the sight and said, "The senior who moved that star field here must have been a very romantic individual."

With that, he closed his eyes slowly, enjoying the night as it passed by.

***

A massive change had occurred in the ruins of the Arcanist Civilization.

The mysterious figure was now wearing a robe, and there was a staff in his hand.

A thousand meters ahead of him was an altar suspended in the starry sky.

A stone tablet covered in strange runes was right in front of the altar, and an ancient, mysterious character hovered above the stone tablet.

The mysterious figure's eyes were filled with a zealous light as he stared at the ancient character.

Years ago, the Arcanist Civilization rose to prominence, and it was entirely because of the ancient character before him. If he could awaken it and grow the Immortal Dao Tree again, the Arcanist Civilization would return to its peak in the shortest possible time. To no one's surprise, the mysterious figure's goal was the revival of the Arcanist Civilization!

The mysterious figure couldn't contain his excitement and exhilaration at the thought of reviving his civilization. If he ended up successful, he'd become the new founding ancestor of the Arcanist Civilization. He'd also be able to use that achievement to open a unique path, becoming the first in his civilization to actually open a "real," unique path.

This was the mysterious figure's true objective! Actually, the mysterious figure and the experts of the Arcanist Civilization managed to reach the Path Creation Realm by relying on the Immortal Dao Fruit, but they quickly realized that there was a massive difference between reaching the Path Creation Realm through external means and reaching the same realm through one's own strength.

The Path Creation Realm reached through external means had only form but no substance; it couldn't create a completely new Great Dao that the cultivators of the vast expanse could follow. In other words, reaching the Path Creation Realm through external means was useless. After creating a Dao, the only way to advance further was to pass it down to future generations, allowing the future generations to cultivate one's Dao. This way, the creator of the Dao would receive a continuous stream of power from those cultivating their Dao.

The mysterious figure was planning on reviving the Arcanist Civilization to forge his own path. A true, self-created path!

The mysterious figure's blood boiled with excitement at the mere thought of it.

Swoosh!

A shadowy figure suddenly appeared behind the mysterious figure. They bowed respectfully and said, "My lord, everything is ready."

The mysterious figure suppressed his excitement and nodded slightly, saying, "Go ahead and start."

The shadowy figure retreated quietly.

Soon, the spacetime around the altar trembled violently. Then, countless streams of spiritual energy surged toward it, creating a vortex of pure spiritual energy.

They were plundering the spiritual energy of multiple civilizations!

Once the blood corpses were done devouring their victims, they learned where their victims had come from, allowing them to track those civilizations with pinpoint accuracy to plunder the spiritual energy of those civilizations.

Those civilizations couldn't resist and could only watch helplessly as their spiritual energy was stolen from them.

Those civilizations fell into despair.

Just then, the mysterious figure turned his head and saw a spacetime rift in the distance. A woman walked out of the rift.

She was none other than Xin Yu!

Ye Guan, Taia Tian, and the elders of the Asura Civilization stood next to her.

Rumble!

A spacetime rift manifested in the exact opposite direction. The mysterious figure turned toward it and saw Dai Zong and Dai Qing walking out slowly from the rift.

The mysterious figure glanced at Ye Guan and the others with a smile. "I was planning on visiting all of you once my task is complete. I'm surprised to see that you guys have come to find me first. Very well, it saves us time."

Rumble!

The space behind the mysterious figure quivered, and seven blood corpses slowly came into view. Every single blood corpse exuded a terrifying aura capable of instilling fear in just about anyone.

However, the mysterious figure wasn't done yet.

A spacetime rift manifested behind the seven blood corpses, and thousands of warriors clad in black armor marched out from the rift.

They were armed with long spears and moved in perfect unison.

When they emerged from the rift, a terrifying battle intent swept across the entire starry sky, making everyone feel suffocated.

Dai Zong merely chuckled at the sight. "My Junlin Civilization will go first."

Just as he was about to give orders, Dai Qing kicked him and scolded him. "I'm still alive, so why are you trying to take charge?"

Dai Qing looked at the mysterious figure and roared, "Where is the Junlin Army?!"

Boom!

The roar of countless men echoed behind him as more than ten thousand warriors clad in golden armor marched out of the spacetime rift.

These warriors wielded golden spears; their movements were synchronized, and their battle intent was overwhelming.

The starry sky seemed to become illusory beneath their overwhelming aura and battle intent.

Xin Yu called out, "Asura Divine Guards."

Boom!

A spacetime rift manifested behind her as over ten thousand Divine Guards rushed out of the rift.

Unlike the Junlin Army, the Asura Divine Guards exuded an even stronger aura composed of both killing intent, battle intent, and the innate aura of their cultivation base.

A mere glance was enough for anyone to conclude that the army before them had slaughtered countless civilizations.

There was also a separate group of experts in white robes. There were only a thousand of them, and they followed closely behind Xin Yu. Clearly, they were the experts of the Supreme Scholar Academy.

The Junlin Civilization and the Asura Civilization had already surpassed the Arcanist Civilization in both numbers and power.

However, the mysterious figure revealed a contemptuous look at the armed forces before him. He waved his hand, and the seven blood corpses took a step forward at the same time.

A terrifying pressure instantly enveloped Ye Guan and the rest.

Boom!

The momentum shifted drastically in the blink of an eye.

The expressions of Xin Yu and the others' expressions changed drastically. These blood corpses weren't Path Creation Realm experts, but their aura and strength surpassed ordinary Transcension Realm cultivators.

They had to be half-step Path Creation Realm experts!

One of the blood corpses stepped forward and stared at Ye Guan at the others, saying, "Send someone in the Transcension Realm; show me the strength of a Transcension Realm expert of this era."

A challenge!

Everyone exchanged glances.

Soon, a middle-aged man stepped forward.

He was an expert from the Junlin Civilization, and he was a peak Transcension Realm cultivator. Clearly, he was one of the Junlin Civilization's core elites!

"You've taken the words out of my mouth," the middle-aged man said, smiling. "I want to witness the strength of an expert from the Arcanist Civilization."

The blood corpse took another step forward, and a mysterious force enveloped both him and the middle-aged man.

The middle-aged man chuckled and stepped forward. He clenched his hand into a fist and swung it forward. It was just a punch, but it was filled with overwhelming fist intent and killing intent.

A direct attack!

The blood corpse threw a punch as well, and it was as simple and as direct as the middle-aged man's punch!

The two of them were clearly planning on fighting with mere brute strength without any flashy techniques whatsoever.

Boom!

A deafening explosion echoed, and the middle-aged man was blown away. A bloody hand grabbed his shoulder, and a terrifying energy enveloped him.

The middle-aged man was instantly filled with dread. He threw a fierce punch with his left hand, and a divine statue appeared behind him.

He no longer dared to hold back.

In response, the blood corpse sent a knee toward the middle-aged man's abdomen.

The middle-aged man curled up like a shrimp, and he was blasted away like a kite that had lost its strings. Shockingly, his figure disintegrated in mid-air, and he was annihilated both in flesh and soul before he could even land.

The middle-aged man was no more!

The expressions of the experts from the Asura Civilization and Junlin Civilization fell. Someone in the Transcension Realm can't even fight back against that blood corpse?

Taia Tian and Xin Yu were the most shocked. They had actually fought against one of these blood corpses. The blood corpse was strong, but it wasn't this strong. Of course, the blood corpse that they fought wasn't in its peak condition back then, unlike the blood corpse before them right now.

The blood corpse swept his gaze across everyone present and calmly remarked, "That was a Transcension Realm expert in this era? How weak."

The experts of the Junlin Civilization became extremely grim. More than anything, they were shocked. They didn't expect the blood corpse to be so terrifying.

The mysterious figure in the distance laughed and remarked, "Old Qi, you're just bullying them, aren't you? You're a direct disciple of the Arcanist Civilization's Martial God. Forget these small fry; even the Martial Gods of this civilization aren't worthy of fighting you."

The blood corpse shook his head and said, "Too weak, too boring."

With that, he turned around and walked away.

Just then, Ye Guan stepped forward.

Xin Yu's expression changed immediately at the sight. She grabbed his arm and said, "Young Master Ye, if you want to call for help, I won't stop you. But you must not challenge him by yourself."

Taia Tian also added, "Don't be impulsive, Young Master Ye."

Ye Guan smiled. "I'm going to be fine."

Ye Guan's interest was piqued upon seeing just how strong the blood corpse was at close-quarters combat. He loved fighting against such opponents. It was dangerous but exciting!

Ye Guan was excited at the idea of fighting such a powerful opponent, but both Xin Yu and Taia Tian were anxious.

Swoosh!

Yi Nian suddenly appeared next to Ye Guan. As always, there was a candied hawthorn in her hand.

Ye Guan smiled at her and said, "Cheer for me."

Yi Nian nodded. "Sure."

Ye Guan laughed heartily and started walking toward the blood corpse.

Everyone on the battlefield looked at him. When they saw his cultivation base, their expressions became strange.

Is he seeking his death?

The mysterious figure remarked, "It's you."

Ye Guan looked at the mysterious figure.

The mysterious figure chuckled, "I know your origins aren't simple, and you must have really powerful backers. However, I suggest we don't waste each other's time and just immediately call for help. Seriously."

The mysterious figure was not afraid of Ye Guan's backers at all. He had deduced that even though Ye Guan's backers were strong, they were not strong enough to kill him.

"Sure." Ye Guan nodded.
