Chapter 149: A Sword Strike That Can Sever Heaven and Earth

"But I can't hold on for much longer. Looking at his demeanor, he seems to want to keep us alive. The people from the Demon Race must have investigated our relationship with Ye Lin."

"They want to capture us to restrain Ye Lin, so he must be holding back."

Ye Lin, who had appeared at the Profound Heaven Sect, did not hesitate to go all out, rushing toward Han Ting's location without concealing his aura in the slightest.

Wherever he passed, the people below felt as if a great mountain was pressing down upon their backs in an instant.

Han Shi looked at Jiang Cheng before him; he could only try to buy more time for Ye Lin to arrive.

Jiang Cheng looked at the two people below; both of them possessed life-saving methods.

Along the way, Ye Lin sensed the auras of some Demon Clan members, but whenever he passed by, none of these Demon Clan members survived.

Chen An also learned that Ye Lin had appeared through the Demon Race and others, and judging by the direction Ye Lin was heading, he was going toward Jiang Cheng.

He would arrive in no time.

This was bad; none of them could contend with Ye Lin right now.

He immediately sent a message to Jiang Cheng.

On Jiang Cheng's side, he also received the message from Chen An and learned that Ye Lin was about to arrive.

He couldn't defeat this Ye Lin right now; if he let him arrive here, he would be finished today.

He did not reveal too much emotion, and no one knew what he was thinking.

Han Shi and the others did not know that Ye Lin was about to arrive.

Jiang Cheng pondered for a moment and then stopped hesitating.

"Since there was no time left, I will just kill them here; I can't have come for nothing."

Instantly, Jiang Cheng looked down at the two people, and just as he prepared to take the next step…

He felt an aura rapidly approaching from afar, moving at a shockingly fast speed.

"Not good! I didn't expect that Ye Lin would arrive so quickly."

Since that was the case, Jiang Cheng flashed into the air and gathered the Devilish Qi around his body.

In an instant, the heavens and earth changed color, and the sun and moon shone together.

Han Shi looked at the scene above; clearly, the attacker had changed his mind and wanted to kill them right here.

Ye Lin, who was rushing over, also sensed this aura. So, it was a Soul Transformation Stage member of the Demon Race; no wonder Han Ting had to use her items.

He also sensed Han Shi's Spear Intent; it seemed both father and daughter had encountered such a calamity.

Han Shi looked at the sun and moon appearing together in the firmament, knowing that this move was not something they could withstand. Relying solely on their life-saving items, they likely wouldn't be able to endure this attack.

Han Shi glanced at Han Ting behind him; this was the only way. At the very least, if Han Ting could survive, that would be enough.

Jiang Cheng locked onto the two of them, and in an instant, it was as if the sun and moon were attacking them.

Jiang Cheng did not linger any longer; without hesitation, he left the place and headed into the distance.

Ye Lin sensed the aura over there. He hadn't expected that Soul Transformation Stage member of the Demon Race to have such methods.

"But no matter. The distance is sufficient. It's a good thing you ran fast; if you had stayed a moment longer, I would have had you and this attack annihilated from this world together."

"So what if the sun and moon shine together? This sword strike of mine can sever heaven and earth."

"Brother Ling."

Qingling understood as well and instantly transformed into the form of a sword, appearing in Ye Lin's hand.

Ye Lin also stopped his footsteps.

Ye Lin slowly raised the long sword above his head, as if all the auras in the world were converging toward him.

This sword strike of his did not trigger any celestial phenomena.

Everything seemed so ordinary, yet it felt as though the profound principles of the Dao were constantly present within it.

Su Yu watched this sword strike. It was truly beautiful. He hadn't expected Ye Lin to be able to achieve this level; he truly was the Child of Destiny.

While others might not understand it, he could still see it.

Ye Lin slowly opened his eyes and swung the long sword in his hand. There were no flashy movements, just a simple, straightforward sword swing.

If there was anything different, it was as if a gentle breeze had suddenly appeared, drifting leisurely toward Han Shi's side, but its speed was increasing rapidly.

Han Shi watched the incoming attack, preparing to fight for a path of survival for Han Ting.

Just as he was about to fly forward, he felt a gentle breeze wash over him, as if it had smoothed out his agitated state of mind.

When he came back to his senses, that breeze was drifting toward the attack in the sky. Upon encountering the phenomenon of the sun and moon shining together…

The phenomenon was instantly split in two by that breeze. Before Han Shi could even react, the phenomenon was instantly shredded until nothing remained.

Han Shi looked at the scene before him; in the end, he sensed Ye Lin's aura. He was all too familiar with this aura.

It seemed Ye Lin had arrived.

At this moment, Jiang Cheng also knew that his attack had failed, but there was no other way; he really was not Ye Lin's opponent right now, and he had felt that attack just now.

It was a good thing he left early; otherwise, he would have been in big trouble.

He hadn't expected Ye Lin's strength to be so terrifying. This was the first time he had intuitively felt it; he had thought the gap between them was not that large.

But the fact was, he had thought wrong. This Ye Lin would have to be left for someone else to deal with later.

Fortunately, he hadn't hesitated this time; otherwise, something bad would have happened.

At this time, Ye Lin arrived beside Han Shi and the others. Using this sword strike had consumed quite a bit of his energy, draining more than half of the spiritual power from his body.

The consumption of using this sword strike was immense, but the reward was also great; this was a sword technique Qingling had taught him.

Although he had said before that this sword strike could sever heaven and earth, with his current strength, he certainly could not achieve that.

However, Qingling said that if this sword technique were cultivated to the extreme, it could sever heaven and earth. Having experienced this sword technique himself, he believed this claim without a doubt.

It was just that, given his current strength and understanding of the Sword Dao, he was still far from it.

Han Shi looked at the appearing Ye Lin. "I knew you would be the one to come, Brother Ye."

"It really had to be you, Brother Ye. Otherwise, I would have been finished here today. Thank you, Brother Ye."

"Sigh, Brother Han, what are you saying? Fortunately, I left some life-saving items for Han Ting; otherwise, something truly bad would have happened."

"I really didn't expect you to be able to arrive so quickly, Ye Lin. You haven't appeared for a long time."

"Originally, I wouldn't have made it in time. I was in a Secret Realm far away from here, but fortunately, there was a teleportation array in the Secret Realm that teleported me near the Profound Heaven Sect."

"So, I was able to make it in time. If that Soul Transformation Stage member of the Demon Race hadn't left immediately, he would have been left here today."

Han Shi now had a feeling of having survived a disaster; he hadn't experienced this in so many years.

Ye Lin understood their feelings; he had experienced this no less often in the past and had already become accustomed to it.

He smiled and said, "Let's go, let's return to the Sect first. I didn't expect so many things to have happened while I was away."

Han Shi did not say anything more; he took Han Ting and left this place, returning to the Sect with Ye Lin.

Su Yu watched this scene; these matters did not require his intervention. He had also said that he would not interfere unless it was a truly fatal situation.

On the Demon Race's side, although they had suffered great losses this time, their people were about to finish assembling. Another batch of Nascent Soul Stage members of the Demon Race had already been sent to him.

Now, only the final step remained before this war could be ignited. A Demon Ancestor at the Void Refinement Stage was already prepared.

They had been waiting for this day to come.
