I Have A Sword

Chapter 939: Suppressing Divinity With Humanity

Ye Guan unleashed an overwhelming amount of killing intent. As soon as his divinity became pure and perfect, the aura of his sword intent and Mad Demon Bloodline surged dramatically once again. His aura now exceeded the aura of an ordinary Path Creation Realm cultivator.

Little Pagoda softly remarked, "In the future, this brat needs to go mad more often than not."

Although Ye Guan had inherited the Mad Demon Bloodline, he had never truly succumbed to its madness. The Mad Demon Bloodline was cultivated by embracing its madness. If Ye Guan were to refuse to embrace that madness, he'd never be able to unleash the Mad Demon Bloodline's true potential.

Ye Guan was finally tapping into the full power of his Mad Demon Bloodline. Of course, this was only the limit of his current strength. The bloodline itself had no limits.

Who was the progenitor of the bloodline? It was none other than Yang Ye!

As long as Yang Ye was alive, his bloodline would remain boundless, with no limits whatsoever. How much of its potential could be unlocked depended entirely on Ye Guan's own abilities.

Thanks to the Mad Demon Bloodline, Ye Guan's divinity became pure, but under the influence of the Mad Demon Bloodline, his heart was consumed by the urge to kill.

He felt no other emotion except for the thirst for slaughter, and his killing intent reached extreme levels.

On the battlefield, Ye Guan's aura surged uncontrollably. The immense power of his bloodline and sword intent made the spacetime around him tremble violently.

Pure and perfect divinity! Unfortunately, this perfection wasn't born from having only the Great Dao in his heart but having only killing intent in his heart. His desire to kill had reached extreme levels, so everything in the world became his target to kill.

Deep within the Hell Battlefield, a three-hundred-meter-tall mountain collapsed. A middle-aged man emerged from the rubble. He was dressed in regal robes, and his aura was restrained. He frowned upon seeing Ye Guan.

The Hell Lord's face darkened upon seeing the middle-aged man.

Wasn't he supposed to be in closed-door cultivation? Why was he outside?

The middle-aged man looked up, and his gaze pierced through space and time to land on the Hell Lord.

"Hell Lord, who is he?"

The Hell Lord replied, "Young Master Ye."

"Young Master Ye?" asked the middle-aged man.

The Hell Lord nodded. "Tian Qing, spar with Young Master Ye."

Tian Qing's expression immediately soured. "Who do you think I am? Just a sparring partner?"

"His aunt is capable of instantly killing Path Annihilation Realm experts," replied the Hell Lord.

Tian Qing was stunned, and then he shook his head vehemently. "Impossible; that is absolutely impossible! There's no one that powerful in this vast expanse unless Lord Old God reappears or the Existing Dao returns..."

The Hell Lord said coolly, "Do I have any reason to lie to you? Why don't you take a look at his bloodline and see if it's an ordinary bloodline?"

Hearing that, Tian Qing turned to Ye Guan in the distance. When he saw the overwhelming power emanating from Ye Guan's Mad Demon Bloodline, he frowned once again. It definitely wasn't an ordinary bloodline.

Actually, it was the first time he had encountered such a powerful bloodline.

The Hell Lord remarked, "I actually don't think that you can kill him."

Tian Qing immediately sneered and said, "He's only an Equal Path Realm expert, while I'm a Path Annihilation Realm cultivator. What nonsense are you saying? You really think that I can't beat him?"

"Why don't you try, then?" the Hell Lord replied.

Tian Qing stared at Ye Guan in the distance. "All right, then, let's see how monstrous this young man really is."

He took a step forward and pointed a finger at Ye Guan.

The spacetime around Ye Guan trembled slightly and blurred.

Tian Qing started the fight with a spacetime prison! A spacetime prison was a form of dimensional suppression, and it gave a stronger cultivator near-absolute control over those weaker than them.

Ye Guan swung his sword.

Boom!

The spacetime prison was obliterated.

Tian Qing's eyes flickered in surprise. Before he could react, Ye Guan transformed into a streak of sword light and vanished into thin air.

Realizing that Ye Guan was about to make a move, Tian Qing decided to punish the former. He stepped forward and threw a punch at the oncoming Ye Guan.

A head-on confrontation!

Bam!

The two of them collided before being blasted away from each other.

Ye Guan was pushed back to his original position, while Tian Qing was forced to retreat nearly a thousand meters away. After coming to a stop, he looked down at his right hand and saw a deep cut.

Tian Qing's face darkened instantly at the sight.

His sword actually managed to wound me?

Tian Qing looked up at Ye Guan in the distance, but as soon as he did, a blood-red sword flew straight at him.

Tian Qing threw another punch.

Bam!

The sword light shattered, but a myriad of sword lights manifested around him.

Phantom Edge!

Tian Qing's expression remained unchanged. He raised his right hand and swung downward. The sword lights instantly froze in place, and he followed up with another punch.

Boom!

The sword lights were blasted away.

However, it was just a feint—one big feint. While Tian Qing was preoccupied with the sword lights, Ye Guan charged at him from behind and slashed out.

Tian Qing's brows furrowed instantly. Ye Guan was emanating an incredibly terrifying killing intent. The killing intent was so intense that it affected even Tian Qing, who was an extremely powerful cultivator.

Tian Qing was shocked, but he regained his composure in an instant and threw another punch.

Boom!

The punch forced Ye Guan back.

Tian Qing's frown deepened, realizing that Ye Guan's killing intent was truly affecting him. At the same time, he had to admit that he was impressed.

After all, he was a Path Annihilation Realm expert. Having fought countless battles in his life, his mind was as solid as a boulder. Despite that, Ye Guan's strange bloodline was influencing his mind.

Tian Qing looked up at Ye Guan in the distance, noticing that Ye Guan's aura and sword intent were still surging wildly.

Just then, Ye Guan roared and charged at Tian Qing with all his might.

Everything around Ye Guan instantly transformed into a sea of blood.

Tian Qing's eyes became solemn at the sight. He could no longer afford to underestimate his opponent, so he charged forward and swung his fist, signaling the start of a cataclysmic battle between experts!

There were no noises that could be heard within the sea of blood except for the sound of metal clashing against Tian Qing's fist.

At first, Tian Qing was able to suppress Ye Guan, but the tide eventually and Ye Guan gained the upper hand.

The Hell Lord's expression grew more solemn at the sight. He hadn't expected that Ye Guan was strong enough to overpower Tian Qing.

Tian Qing was once a general of the Old Dao. Although his strength had regressed due to his suppression, he was still far stronger than most Path Annihilation Realm experts.

Moreover, Ye Guan was only an Equal Path Realm expert. In other words, he was several realms below Tian Qing.

Boom!

A loud explosion rang out, and Tian Qing was blasted thousands of meters away.

As soon as he came to a stop, countless sword lights appeared around him.

Tian Qing's pupils constricted, and he clenched his right hand before swinging it down in an attempt to immobilize the oncoming sword lights.

However, the sword lights trembled and shattered the mysterious force that was holding them back. Before Tian Qing could do anything else, he was engulfed by the sword lights.

BOOM!

A terrifying wave of energy erupted from the sea of blood, and Tian Qing was forced to retreat tens of thousands of meters away. He looked miserable, riddled by hundreds of cuts.

Before Tian Qing could pace himself, Ye Guan's sword was already flying toward him.

Tian Qing's eyes widened. He raised his arms to defend himself when a burst of golden light shot up from within Ye Guan, immobilizing him.

Tian Qing frowned. The Mad Demon Bloodline receded like a tidal wave into Ye Guan's figure. The golden light was suppressing the terrifying bloodline!

Under Little Pagoda's suppression, Ye Guan's mind slowly returned to normal.

Ye Guan closed his eyes as his killing intent dissipated. After a long while, he opened his eyes, revealing that they were no longer bloodshot. He was no longer mad.

Tian Qing frowned slightly. "Humanity? How is this even possible..."

Earlier, Ye Guan was devoid of humanity as his divinity had become pure and perfect. However, Ye Guan's aura was no longer in that state of perfection. Tian Qing also noticed traces of humanity in him once again.

Just then, Tian Qing's eyes widened in realization.

"Suppressing divinity with humanity?!" Tian Qing exclaimed.

Cultivators capable of suppressing their divinity with humanity were extremely rare, and it was all because suppressing a perfect and pure divinity with one's humanity was almost impossible.

And that was when Tian Qing realized something amiss...

Ye Guan was not suppressing his divinity using his humanity.

He had simply sobered up.

The Hell Lord's voice was solemn as he said, "He used the Mad Demon Bloodline to achieve perfect and pure divinity, and he suppressed that divinity by sobering up. Damn it; you can actually do that?"

Isn't that cheating? Tian Qing's expression turned strange. Back in their day, the journey from humanity to perfect divinity was filled with countless hardships. But this guy just has to activate his bloodline, and he instantly achieves perfect divinity... To make things even more outrageous, he just has to sober up to suppress that divinity.

Switching between divinity and humanity at will... Isn't that cheating?!

Ye Guan could switch to perfect divinity to enjoy a seemingly boundless power boost, and then he could just sober up to suppress his divinity and enjoy life.

Fuck! Tian Qing cursed inwardly. It was truly unfair.

Meanwhile, Ye Guan took a deep breath and asked, "Qianqian, what happened?"

Ao Qianqian recounted everything, rendering Ye Guan shocked and speechless.

I achieved perfect divinity? Ye Guan mused, but he calmed down quickly. He knew that his achievement was all thanks to the Mad Demon Bloodline, but he had to go completely mad to make use of the bloodline's true power.

Ye Guan was already very close to perfect divinity, and he managed to take that final step by cutting loose, allowing his mind to fall into lunacy.

Once he was done with his slaughter, Master Pagoda suppressed his bloodline, which suppressed his divinity as well.

Just then, an idea formed in Ye Guan's mind. If he became capable of suppressing his Mad Demon Bloodline using his own strength, would that mean he was also capable of suppressing his divinity with humanity?

Ye Guan shook his head with a wry smile. That was extremely difficult to do. After all, how could a madman be sober enough to do such a thing? There were precedents, but it was all because Ye Guan was facing someone he did not want to kill.

In the end, Ye Guan set aside the idea and turned to Tian Qing in the distance. He nodded in acknowledgment before turning around and leaving without saying anything.

It was time to head to the Tianxing Civilization!
