"Should we continue? It's not too late to kill me now, but it'll be too late if we go any further," Xi Yun said, looking at the exhausted Sui Xin.

A person is more likely to compromise when they are weak.

"Don't be afraid, we still have a trump card up our sleeve. I will definitely do what I promised you," Sui Xin said, looking at Xi Yun with unwavering determination.

"snort"

Xi Yun didn't say anything more, feeling somewhat worried. There was only one more obstacle ahead, but that was beyond her control.

She had already done her best with her current level of spiritual power, and she regretted it.

As the True Phoenix Technique flowed freely, faint flames danced across his body, and his injuries gradually healed. His Qi Sea also filled considerably, and he felt he wasn't far from reaching the third rank.

Those swords, in the end, were also formed based on spiritual energy. Under the pressure of such high-intensity solid spiritual energy, it would be difficult not to improve.

"Phew," Sui Xin opened her eyes. She had just recovered for about five hours, but there was no time limit.

I feel a little bad for Little Fatty and the others, but I can't worry about that now. Xi Yun's life is not something to be taken lightly.

Let's continue.

Are you really sure about this?

"If it weren't for my intervention, you wouldn't have been able to get through that formation." Xi Yun tried her best to stop him, even at the cost of telling Sui Xin the truth.

"Huh? What do you mean?"

"Didn't you notice that the sword formation disappeared just when you were about to give up?"

Sui Xin was taken aback. Just as he was about to run out of spiritual energy, the formation suddenly disappeared. He had thought it was just bad luck, but it turned out that's how it was.

"It's alright. I could have won even without your interference. I already told you, I haven't revealed my trump card yet," Sui Xin said confidently.

"Let's go," Sui Xin said, picking her up and walking forward before Xi Yun could even react.

"I'm holding Yun'er, but my heart is filled with little Yun'er. This feeling is so wonderful." The atmosphere at the scene was a bit oppressive, so Sui Xin couldn't help but joke.

Xi Yun couldn't laugh. "Don't be so cheeky. I'm not joking with you."

"That's really heartless. I was almost beaten to death before and I wasn't afraid. Is there anything more terrifying than death?" Sui Xin pouted and complained.

Ye Xiyun remained silent, and memories from the past slowly surfaced in her mind.

"Hmph, that's just your opinion. Only by experiencing long periods of solitude can one understand the horror of loneliness. It's a fear that transcends life and death, that transcends everything."

"No one knows me, no one can see me, no one can hear my voice. It's like being isolated from the world. That kind of pain shatters my heart."

Unimaginable.

A magnificent world is right before my eyes, but all its beauty is irrelevant to me.

"Have you always been alone before?"

He stopped walking and could feel that the person in his arms was very disappointed, as if their eyes had lost their luster.

"Um"

His tone was very downcast.

"Don't worry, we may not know what the future holds, but you won't be lonely now that I'm with you," Sui Xin said solemnly as she hugged her tightly.

When you tell someone about your grievances, a word of comfort can easily bring you to tears.

Xiao Yun'er was the same; tears welled up in her eyes, partly from remembering her past pain, and perhaps also from the comfort she felt.

Sui Xin gently wiped away Xi Yun's tears, "She really is just like Yun'er, she cries just as easily."

Xi Yun realized what was happening, blushed, and quickly turned her head to bury her face in Sui Xin's chest.

No wonder Xiyun likes him...

Without further persuasion, Sui Xin carried Xi Yun inside.

The cliffs on both sides of the canyon gradually disappeared, but the piercing sword intent grew even more intense, and an invisible sense of oppression appeared in his heart.

Finally, the cliff disappeared completely, and what appeared before the two was a lush green lawn. In the middle of the lawn was an altar with a diameter of three meters, and above it floated a golden lightsaber.

“That is the Divine Sword Intent. Depending on the intruder’s cultivation level, it will unleash five attacks as you approach it. If you can withstand the attacks, you can obtain the sword intent,” Xi Yun said, with a hint of worry in her voice.

"Based on level?"

"Hmm, you're currently at the second level of True Spirit, and your sword intent attacks can only reach the True Essence Realm at most. The difference in power is enormous."

"If you feel you can't take it, just come out. Don't try to be brave, understand?"

"Okay, I heard you. So what should I do?" He shrugged casually, seemingly unconcerned.

"Sigh, just give it to me after you get the sword intent," he said with a hint of helplessness.

He nodded casually, thinking that there was hope if they relied on the True Phoenix Technique.

We didn't linger.

With a "boom," crimson flames erupted from his body, protecting Sui Xin.

A tremendous power surged within his body, filling him with immense strength, yet the traces of blood at the corner of his mouth created a sense of contradiction.

“This is…” Xi Yun’s eyes widened, the power she unleashed at will was many times stronger than before.

"Are you out of your mind? This is a matter of life and death!" Xi Yun roared, her panic visibly evident.

"Phew, that was really exciting!"

"Don't worry, Yun'er, you can recover after using it once."

Feeling the power within me, I now have a feeling of both wanting to sleep and being full of energy.

"Yun'er, just wait for my good news, I'm off!"

If you let go of Xiyun as you please, she doesn't need to go inside.

The moment my feet touched the grass,

In the blink of an eye, an immense pressure descended from the sky. If it weren't for the support of power, Sui Xin might have already been forced to his knees.

A strong wind began to rise, and the center of the altar shone brightly, even causing cracks to appear in the ground.

Sui Xin has also gained a foothold and is gradually adapting to the differences in internal and external pressures.

“It’s here,” Xi Yun said, looking at a beam of white light ahead.

In the blink of an eye, the full white light was revealed before him. It was an exquisitely crafted longsword, seemingly posing no danger whatsoever, but Sui Xin dared not underestimate it.

Sure enough, the moment Sui Xin raised his hand to block, the enormous impact traveled through his hands and into his entire body. It felt as if his internal organs and meridians were being shattered. The intense pain left Sui Xin momentarily stunned, followed by a heart-wrenching scream.

"Ah, ah, ah," the sound echoed in the valley.

He collapsed to the ground, bleeding from all seven orifices, his mind blank.

"Suixin, are you alright, Suixin?"

Xi Yun shouted outside, calling Sui Xin's name for the first time.

No response.

Xi Yun's eyes were red and swollen, and tears fell like raindrops...

"Don't cry, I'm fine," Sui Xin, who was lying on the ground, turned her head slightly and looked at Xi Yun when she heard the voice.

The attack just now was at least thirty times stronger than my previous one; even with the deadly technique, I was almost killed.

"Sui Xin, please don't go, okay?" Xi Yun pleaded, tears streaming down her face. She truly regretted it.

She had originally wanted to test Suixin to see how far he could go, but seeing his current situation, she felt incredibly regretful.

Is sword intent necessary? No.

"I'll try again."

I don't know what the consequences will be if I use the deadly method twice.

I forgot to ask at the time; I only knew that it couldn't be used twice in a row within fifteen days, and I didn't know what the effect of using it twice together would be.

Never mind, this is the only way now.

He stopped thinking and started drinking pills like they were free. The Deadly Technique could only last for the time it takes for an incense stick to burn; there was no extra time to recover.
