“An interesting human expert, and a woman at that?”

In the black fog outside the Nine Heavens, the strange giant with a dragon head and a human body looked at Ming Yue with interest. It was as if in his eyes, the other party was just an ant and was not worthy of his help.

Compared to the woman in red he had met in the uninhabited region, Ming Yue’s demeanor was indeed very difficult to attract him. There was only one expert in the Eastern Wasteland that could interest him, and that was Tianmeng. Unfortunately, in Tianmeng’s eyes, he was also an ant and could not arouse her interest at all.

Under the natural chasm, Ming Yue suppressed the Bloodthirsty Beast with one hand and looked up at the Heavenly Abyss, staring at the strange giant.

“What a powerful aura.”

Ming Yue’s heart trembled and she was a little afraid. Only Ye Qiu could deal with such an expert. The reason why she attacked was to buy some time to help Qi Wuhui relieve the pressure. She was not stupid enough to provoke that strange giant.

“Roar…”

The pride that came from the bones of the violent Bloodthirsty Beast was instantly enraged after being suppressed by Ming Yue.

It was an ancient ferocious beast. How could it be suppressed by a lowly human cultivator? The pride in its heart made it gradually lose its rationality. It could originally control its mind a little, but at this moment, it had completely gone berserk.

With a roar, the Bloodthirsty Beast pounced over. It waved its powerful claws, wanting to knock Ming Yue down from the sky.

“Impudent!” Ming Yue had just recovered from the shock of looking at the strange giant when she discovered the Bloodthirsty Beast’s sneak attack. Her expression immediately turned cold. She formed a seal with her hands and slapped down domineeringly, colliding with the Bloodthirsty Beast.

Boom!

A powerful force instantly spread out. The aftershock of the battle between Paragon experts almost shattered the barrier. Fortunately, there was Qi Wuhui holding down the fort and maintaining it with his powerful strength.

The difference in strength between them gave Ming Yue the upper hand for the time being, forcing the Bloodthirsty Beast back.

After taking a breath, Ming Yue instantly took out her sword and prepared to end the Bloodthirsty Blood Beast.

Suddenly, a huge dark hand slowly stretched down from the sky.

“Not good, Junior Sister is in danger.” Qi Wuhui’s expression instantly changed, and the others looked over nervously.

A powerful and strange power continuously filled the entire world as the huge dark hand stretched down from the Nine Heavens.

Ming Yue’s face instantly turned pale. That strange giant had finally attacked. Even though she was already mentally prepared, she only truly understood how terrifying the other party was when she fought him. It was impossible to break free.

There seemed to be some kind of domain in the surroundings. It was the domain of space, and it had already completely restricted her movements.

“Am I going to die?” Ming Yue smiled bitterly after her futile struggle. She was quite open-minded.

“Haha… You’re indeed an ant. I can make you have nowhere to hide with just a hand.”

Ming Yue was furious when she heard the arrogance and sarcasm from the strange giant. She hated such high and mighty creatures the most. They constantly emphasized their noble bloodline. Her finger was just about to slash across the Heavenly Water Sword, preparing to sacrifice her Intrinsic Sword to fight to the death with the other party. However, before she could gather her energy, she was already suppressed.

There was no hope…

Knowing that the difference in strength was too great, Ming Yue gave up struggling and slowly closed her eyes.

“Human woman, prepare yourself for the darkness. You will be very comfortable.” The strange giant smiled evilly. The huge dark hand brought with it a strange aura and covered the sky.

For a moment, the Nine Heavens were silent. From under the sky, a huge dark hand stretched out towards Ming Yue.

“Junior Sister, leave quickly.” Qi Wuhui shouted loudly. He wanted to go out and help, but he could not leave. He seemed to have exhausted all his energy and sat weakly on the ground. The other masters were also in a mess and were incomparably indignant.

At this critical moment, an ancient broken sword made of rust flew over from the sky.

“What’s that?” In the crowd, Liu Qingfeng was the first to react and shouted excitedly.

Everyone was awakened by his scream and looked up. In the sky, a broken sword emitting blood-red light instantly charged over.

“It’s the Immortal Slayer!” Looking at the extremely familiar sword, Lin Qingzhu shouted excitedly, her tone trembling. She, who was strong-willed, could not help but cry the moment she saw Ming Yue almost lose her life.

“Immortal Slayer?”

Everyone present immediately reacted. Wasn’t that sword Ye Qiu’s sword? Turning around, the Immortal Slayer Sword instantly tore through the sky, and a terrifying sword energy instantly erupted.

Boom!

With a loud bang, the dark hand was instantly slashed by the Immortal Slayer Sword and broke.

“No!”

In the sky, the expression of the dark creature instantly changed. He looked at his severed right arm in disbelief. He was shocked. Ever since he came to the Eastern Wasteland, other than the Red Empress, no one in this world could hurt him.

The strange giant let out an angry roar as he looked at the broken sword below. “Who is it? Who is it? Come out. I will definitely kill you today to vent my anger.”

Violent angry voices resounded through the sky. The dark overlord looked around crazily, trying to find the person who had injured him.

Under the natural chasm, Ming Yue waited quietly for her death in despair. Suddenly, she heard the roar of the strange giant. She frowned and opened her eyes in confusion. She saw the Immortal Slayer Sword that was hovering in front of her and immediately revealed a smile.

It’s him? Ming Yue’s eyes panicked. She looked back, trying to find that familiar figure.

A Heavenly Gate slowly opened in the sky. The instant light shocked the sky.

Everyone immediately held their breaths. They looked at the door above the Heavenly Abyss and felt incomparably nervous and expectant.

A white figure slowly walked out of the Heavenly Gate. That figure looked at the strange creature across the natural chasm. The aura of a King-Ranked instantly erupted like a violent wind. In an instant, all the ferocious beasts in the hundred-mile wasteland submitted.

“It’s you!” The strange giant frowned when he saw the white figure outside the Heavenly Gate. He had seen Ye Qiu before. When Ye Qiu came out of seclusion, he had looked at him from afar. It was also because of Ye Qiu’s existence that he came to Qin Chuan from afar and gave up on the Supreme Hall that was about to be slaughtered.

“Are you very surprised?” Ye Qiu had his hands behind his back as he looked at the strange giant with a faint smile. His aura wasn’t inferior to the other party at all.

When everyone saw Ye Qiu, they were overjoyed. It was as if a spark had ignited in their despair.

“That’s great, Perfected Ye has finally made a move. With him around, Qin Chuan’s danger can be resolved.”

A heated discussion instantly broke out. Everyone was incomparably excited.

“Perfected Ye is the Sword Immortal of the current era. He can open the Heavenly Gate with a single sword and cut down the sun, moon, and stars. Moreover, his cultivation is omnipotent and he has countless divine techniques. Who can break through with him guarding the Heavenly Ridge?”

The fighting spirit in everyone’s hearts was ignited again. They believed that those who spread Ye Qiu’s true name would obtain eternal life. The rumors became more and more ridiculous.

In the darkness, the strange giant was very unhappy when he heard Ye Qiu’s casual and disdainful voice. However, when he felt the other party’s terrifying aura and the astonishing soul suppression power on the Immortal Slayer Sword, he felt a little afraid.

Ye Qiu had actually cut off his right arm with just one strike. One had to know that his move just now was a great killing move of the spatial domain. Even experts of the same realm might not be able to resolve this move of his. Not only could Ye Qiu resolve it, but he also heavily injured him.

“Haha, interesting!” After pondering for a while, the strange giant waved his arm, and the arm that had been cut off recovered. He sneered. “Human cultivator, you’re indeed not bad. You have some strength. However, that’s all! I was careless just now, which was why you were lucky enough to succeed. From now on, I will use both hands. Are you ready to welcome the darkness?”

Ye Qiu frowned when he heard his arrogant voice. What does that mean? Am I only worthy of you using two hands?

“Junior Brother, be careful. This guy’s methods are very strange.” Ming Yue came behind Ye Qiu and instructed softly.

Ye Qiu gave her a smile and gently wiped the sweat off her forehead. “It’s fine, I’ll play with him! Senior Sister, go back first. I’ll be here…”

Ming Yue’s heart warmed when she heard this. She knew Ye Qiu’s strength. She might be a burden if she stayed here, so she decided to return to the Heavenly Ridge first.

After Ming Yue left, Ye Qiu turned around and sneered at the strange creature above his head. He saw the strange creature slowly push his hands, and in an instant, a black aura swept over. That strange and ominous aura instantly enveloped Ye Qiu.

“Haha, prepare to become my servant.” The strange giant was extremely confident in its strange origin. Under such methods, no one could maintain their consciousness. They would quickly be devoured and become puppets of strange origin.

Seeing this scene, everyone was stunned.

“What’s going on? Why didn’t Perfected Ye dodge? He could have dodged…”

Everyone present was dumbfounded and suddenly panicked. If Ye Qiu was strangely devoured and became a puppet of strange origin, he would turn around and hit them. Wouldn’t that be a critical hit? How could they fight?

Oh no, oh no. It was already difficult to fight a strange giant. If Ye Qiu was also corroded, they would die miserably.

Amidst the strange giant’s arrogant laughter, the black aura kept pouncing towards Ye Qiu, devouring him. Just as everyone thought that Ye Qiu had been corroded, suddenly, a dazzling light emitted from the black fog. It was like a green lotus that purified all filth in the world, growing on the other side of life.

“This… How is this possible…”

Seeing this scene, the strange giant instantly reacted and revealed a flustered expression.

Ye Qiu slowly walked out of the black fog and looked at him with a faint smile. “The Strange Origin? Hmm… Looks like it’s nothing much.”
