Chapter 583: 0584 A Glimmer of Hope (Second Update)

Within the domain, the temperature plummeted instantly.

Murderous intent, almost tangible, permeated the air as countless streams of Sword Qi emerged around Ryūsukenosuke, suddenly firing in unison.

Each streak of Sword Qi was powerful enough to pierce through hills and raze them to the ground.

The Sword Qi crisscrossed, raging violently throughout the entire domain.

In this moment, Ryūsukenosuke was ruthlessly aiming for Ye Qiu’s vital points.

Ye Qiu, emanating a unique aura, calmly watched the oncoming Sword Qi, a hint of cold laughter twinkling in his eyes.

"It’s already too late to kill me now!"

Ye Qiu suddenly leapt up, his body spinning with the Kusanagi Sword, soaring straight into the sky.

"You can’t escape, this is my domain!" Ryūsukenosuke sneered, thinking the youngster was still naive enough to dodge, even at the brink of death.

Suddenly... Ryūsukenosuke’s gaze contracted, pupils tightening, as he immediately understood Ye Qiu’s intention. He wasn’t trying to evade his moves, he was trying to break the domain.

"How dare you!"

Ryūsukenosuke’s sword tip changed direction along with his Duanchang Sword, and countless Sword Qi immediately slashed from above Ye Qiu.

Ye Qiu faced the thousands of Sword Qi with resolute determination, bravely charging forward.

Clang! Clang! Clang!

The sound of metal colliding echoed through the air as the many streaks of Sword Qi collided with Ye Qiu, who plunged into the sea of swords as if nothing else mattered and soared upwards recklessly.

Ye Qiu’s expression remained unchanged, while the Kusanagi Sword in his hand spun up a whirlwind that reaped the Sword Qi in front. Nevertheless, countless other Sword Qi struck his body, chiming upon impact. Thanks to the power of the Black Flames infused in his flesh, strengthened by a shield of True Qi, his defenses held firm.

This technique, known as "All Swords Return to the Origin," could shatter any living being within the domain, yet this time, when it hit Ye Qiu, they soundlessly shattered to pieces.

How could his flesh be so strong?

At this moment, no injury could be seen on Ye Qiu. Instead, he burst forth with an indomitable spirit, confronting every attack without fear.

The power of the Black Flames enveloped his entire body, and the damaged parts healed at a speed visible to the naked eye, instantly regenerating. Of course, this was only superficial, and deliberately so by Ye Qiu. He intended to create the illusion for Ryūsukenosuke that his injuries had healed in an instant, exerting pressure on him.

Just as Ye Qiu had expected, Ryūsukenosuke truly believed that Ye Qiu had no wounds left, a deep wariness shining in his eyes.

Ye Qiu couldn’t afford to mind the internal pain. In that moment, his spirit, body, and strength all converged into one point, at the tip of the Kusanagi Sword, shining more brightly than the sun.

"Break for me!"

Ye Qiu had long discerned that the highest point in the space was where the domain’s power was thinnest, so that was where he aimed, intending to shatter the domain completely by piercing through that point.

"Hmph, you think you can break my power with your strength? You are, after all, only in the realm of True Qi..."

As Ryūsukenosuke’s thoughts shifted, the power in the upper reaches of the domain intensified in an instant.

Ryūsukenosuke couldn’t believe that even with all his remaining strength focused on defense, it could be breached by Ye Qiu.

Sizzle...

Ye Qiu and the Kusanagi Sword, united as one, soared with unstoppable momentum, determined to create an opening in the domain above, to pierce through the domain before him.

"I’ve been discovered..." Ye Qiu noticed Ryūsukenosuke suddenly strengthening the power above the domain, as he was already rubbing and colliding against the forces constituting the domain.

The situation suddenly reversed; Ye Qiu became the aggressor, forcing Liusheng Xuzhu to start defending against him.

The sky was the domain’s weak point, something Liusheng Xuzhu knew well. What he hadn’t expected was for Ye Qiu to also know this and attempt to break through it.

"So what if you’ve discovered it? I can freely manoeuvre energy to replenish it and keep you trapped forever," he said.

Liusheng Xuzhu was right; as long as he was alive, he could easily transfer power from the surroundings to the sky above. Ye Qiu’s strike was ferocious; after being pushed to the brink, his sudden outburst had to be his final counterattack.

He had every reason to believe that should Ye Qiu’s strike fail to break the domain, he would be the ultimate victor.

This fellow had actually pushed him to such a state.

Even though Liusheng Xuzhu was extremely reluctant to admit it, at this point, he had to treat Ye Qiu seriously. The young man certainly had the capability to capsize one’s ship in the gutter.

He can’t break through!

Ye Qiu’s eyes narrowed. He had already turned dark, transforming into his strongest form. Could it be that he still wasn’t enough to break the domain?

Time waits for no one. Liusheng Xuzhu wouldn’t allow Ye Qiu to attempt breaking the domain again. With a flick of his finger, the Duanchang Sword shot out fiercely.

A sword flew, a matter of life and death at hand.

The Kusanagi Sword in his hand was desperately trying to pierce through the domain, yet it was still just a little bit short.

Goosebumps rose on Ye Qiu’s back as he sensed the undisguised killing intent of the Duanchang Sword.

Liusheng Xuzhu was forcing Ye Qiu to give up, to abandon all his efforts. But if Ye Qiu didn’t dodge, the sword was powerful enough to take his life and shatter his skull.

"Does he give up, or does he choose death... Haha... you ant, do you really think you can defy the heavens? This is your end!" Liusheng Xuzhu’s laughter echoed throughout the entire domain.

Anxiety filled Ye Qiu’s heart, his brows knitted tightly together. He could already feel the sword blade about to tear through his flesh.

In a moment of desperation, Ye Qiu gritted his teeth. Dammit, it’s all or nothing!

With no other choice, Ye Qiu had to tap into the source of his black flame power to make his strength even more formidable.

It was a life-or-death situation. If he didn’t risk it all and deplete all his power to break the domain once more, he would indeed face death.

He hoped that he would not have to exhaust the source of his power once again!

There was a hint of regret in Ye Qiu’s eyes, yet there was nothing he could do. His opponent’s strength was beyond his imagination.

With the source of the black flame power, activating the most primal force, Ye Qiu’s aura instantly became colder, more mysterious. The powerful aura blazed like flames across the domain. Ye Qiu, wrapped in the burning black flames, appeared terrifying.

Liusheng Xuzhu was shocked by the aura exuding from Ye Qiu. Such dark power was wildly violent and deathly cold. Watching Ye Qiu in the black flames, he couldn’t help but shudder.

For some reason, feeling Ye Qiu’s aura made Liusheng Xuzhu extremely uncomfortable. It was as if he had been cursed by the Grim Reaper, filling him with revulsion and profound fear.

"Your body is filled with an evil aura, like a demon that has fallen into the abyss," Liusheng Xuzhu murmured.

However, at that moment, Ye Qiu wasn’t paying attention to Liusheng Xuzhu’s inner thoughts. His power surged enormously, mysterious patterns beginning to travel from his hand onto the Kusanagi Sword, emitting an intertwining black and golden hue.

The Kusanagi Sword suddenly vibrated, its tip flashing with dark light. With a pop sound,

it was like a piece of glass shattering, a bubble bursting. Ye Qiu’s figure immediately broke out of the domain, securing a sliver of life.

At that moment, Liusheng Xuzhu’s eyes widened in disbelief, never expecting his domain to actually be pierced!
