Chapter 534: Chapter 263: Slaying the Demon Fox, Making Another Breakthrough_4

This was a seven-tailed demonic fox, and the cultivation base of a seven-tailed demonic fox was astonishingly… an Evil Saint.

At this moment.

The killing intent-filled eyes of the seven-tailed demonic fox were fixed on Han Yi, with deep-seated hatred that made him tense and his face incredibly grave.

It seemed that the demonic fox he had killed earlier had a strong connection to this Evil Saint, most likely a close relative.

However, having already killed it, Han Yi had no regrets.

He was only solemn, as an Evil Saint was equivalent to a Nascent Soul Sovereign. In other words, a Sovereign was now preparing to strike at him ruthlessly.

He didn’t have time to think more, as he drew two fingers on one handle, and the Demon-slaying Broken Sword on his back leapt up. Focusing on controlling this broken sword, Han Yi retracted the Green Reed Sword to his back.

However.

This seven-tailed demonic fox was clearly not new to the Evil Saint Realm, nor was it an ordinary Evil Saint. It had reached the peak of the early stage of the Evil Saint Realm. Plus, its royal bloodline as a nine-tailed demonic fox made it among the top-tier in the early stage of the Evil Saint Realm.

Before Han Yi’s Demon-slaying Broken Sword could even make a move, a single tail from the falling demonic fox pierced through the void like a colossal chain.

Next.

A giant silver-white demonic tail suddenly emerged from the void ten meters above Han Yi’s head, vigorously lashing down.

The void above his head exploded.

In an instant.

Han Yi, holding the Demon-slaying Inner Armor, felt an extreme sense of horror and oppression, causing his whole body to shudder.

He was going to die.

He couldn’t react to the speed of this lash, and by the time he could react, this giant demonic tail would have already shattered his skull.

Move, move!

Just a bit faster, just a bit faster.

At this moment, just before death descended suddenly, time seemed to slow down countless times.

Before the demonic fox closed in, two things happened in the slowed time.

The first was that Han Yi’s speed increased sharply several times, just managing to raise the Demon-slaying Inner Armor above his head. As he suddenly lifted his head, a trace of murderous intent appeared, and his mana and spiritual sense surged out.

The second was that the Demon-slaying Broken Sword, which had just leaped up, flickered and shot towards the descending demonic tail.

Time resumed.

The next instant.

Bang!

Finally, the void trembled as the demonic tail lashed down, sending Han Yi flying like a cannonball, crashing into the shallow waters of the Eastern Sea. The terrifying force killed numerous Evil Beasts nearby in the shallow waters.

But the demonic fox that had lashed out its tail let out an agonized roar. Its immense silver eyes were brewing an even greater, insane rage.

It withdrew its fox tail from the void, and only half of this tail remained, the latter half severed by a black broken sword. Silver blood dripped into the void. The fox, who had fought against other Sovereigns of the Human Clan without injury, had half its tail cut off by a Gold Core cultivator.

This sent its fury soaring to hysterical levels.

Meanwhile.

Han Yi, who had crashed into the sea below, was struggling to lift himself up into the sky with the Inner Armor in his hand. His current condition was quite miserable, even dreadful. His robes were torn, revealing his tattered Inner Armor within. Blood dripped from his arms, and the hand holding the Demon-slaying Inner Armor was so badly damaged that the bones were visible. His face and neck were also stained with blood.

However, Han Yi completely ignored the pain coursing through his body and instead felt a surge of excitement, his eyes shining brightly.

Breaking through.

[Light Body Technique (Breaking through the mortal and entering the holy 1/100)].

The art of this body technique finally broke through to the realm of Breaking through the mortal and entering the holy in the last instant before the death crisis, completing the final piece of the puzzle.

He gently waved his hand, and the Demon-slaying Broken Sword that had fallen and slashed the demonic tail arrived in front of him and was firmly grasped.

In this instant, a faint, freshly-developed spiritual sense was transmitted from the broken sword.

A thought crossed Han Yi’s mind – could this spiritual sense indicate that the broken sword would soon transform into a real Spiritual Treasure?

However, there was no time to explore further as the crisis was upon him. He looked up at the sky.

Up in the sky.

The demonic fox roared, ready to use its full strength to crush this damned Human Clan Gold Core cultivator, but a stern attack suddenly fell from above its head.

Han Yi, down below, looked at the white-clothed figure who was launching an attack on the demonic fox, feeling slightly surprised.
