Amid the Corpse Ancestor's desperate howls, the holy sword mercilessly slashed at one of his arms.

Flesh and blood flew everywhere, the sky was dyed red with blood, white bones were exposed, and a stench came instantly.

This sword did not take his life, but it did cause him serious injuries.

"who?"

Ye Qiu put away his sword and stood upright in the sky, his face looking very ugly.

He used the Holy Sword twice. If it weren't for the Suzaku magic that replenished some of his strength earlier, his strength would have been exhausted by now.

This was Ye Qiu's first attempt to use the Holy Sword. He had already felt its power, which was terrifying, but at the same time! Its consumption was huge. With his current ability, he could only use three swords at most.

You know, now Ye Qiu is a powerful warrior at the peak of the Dao of Sacrifice. Even at this level, he can only barely use three swords. This shows how terrifying the power of the God-Slaying Sword is.

This sword is very powerful! But it is also very deadly. If you don't control it well, you may be attacked at any time.

Therefore, after this sword cut through the air, Ye Qiu did not use it again, saving that last sword for when the time comes.

It’s not that he is merciful and doesn’t want to kill the corpse ancestor.

But the sword just now, which should have taken the life of Corpse Ancestor, missed!

Very strange.

With Ye Qiu's current sword skills, it is impossible for him to cut through the air, and the Corpse Ancestor has no ability to resist. The only explanation is that someone took action.

So who is it?

Standing above the Nine Heavens, Ye Qiu looked over the entire Nine Heavens with cold eyes, trying to find the person who had made the move.

After looking around, he didn't find anyone suspicious and finally set his sights on the seriously injured corpse.

Now, one of his arms has been cut off by Ye Qiu, and he has become the hero Yang Guo of the Divine Condor Heroes. He looks very miserable, with an angry expression on his face that is extremely ferocious, and the hatred in his eyes cannot be concealed.

He was angry and anxious.

The butcher who had walked out of a sea of ​​blood and corpses was seriously injured by a young man today. How could he endure such humiliation?

But now he has no ability to resist.

"Damn it! Boy, just wait for me. When I return to the top, I will tear you into pieces and wash away my shame today."

The angry voice of the Corpse Ancestor was heard, but Ye Qiu ignored it and looked at the crack in the void behind him.

After a long silence, he probably knew who had just made the move.

It was the mysterious strong man hidden in the crack. The strange aura gave Ye Qiu a familiar feeling, as if he had seen him somewhere before.

"Hmm...he didn't make another move. Is it because of some taboo?"

Ye Qiu could feel that he was very powerful, but he never showed up. To be exact, he had a strong desire to kill, but he did not attack again.

From this, Ye Qiu came to a conclusion, that is, there is some kind of taboo in this world that restricts him from taking action.

Or maybe there was something he was afraid of that prevented him from taking action.

After thinking this through, Ye Qiu breathed a sigh of relief. He could feel that the person in the crack was very powerful.

It is even several times, or even hundreds of times, stronger than the Corpse Ancestor.

If he attacks, I'm afraid even the Holy Sword will not be able to resist, and that would be dangerous.

The Great Elder once said that this world cannot bear the existence of the Immortal Immortal King, so... when a person reaches this realm, he will be ostracized by the world and will have to leave.

Moreover, there are certain taboos between heaven and earth that prevent outsiders from entering.

Just like the Demon Lord Bai Yunfei, he was unable to enter here, so in order to find Tian Meng, the daughter of the Demon Emperor, he launched a demon invasion.

He attempted to find Tian Meng, the daughter of the Demon Emperor, during this turmoil, but he himself was unable to enter the battlefield.

His plan had been thwarted by Ye Qiu at the beginning. To be precise, he was the one who gave up the plan on his own initiative.

As for why he gave up, Ye Qiu didn't know.

Obviously, the strong man in the crack at this moment, like Bai Yunfei, cannot enter this world.

It also indirectly gave Ye Qiu a chance to catch his breath.

"Okay, then hurry up. If I didn't kill you this time, I may not be able to do it next time. Clean your neck and wait for me."

After thinking this through, Ye Qiu revealed an evil smile and became unscrupulous.

After responding to the Corpse Ancestor seriously, he looked at the crack behind him with a provocative look.

Obviously, the person in the crack was also angered, but he still did not take action.

He didn't even say a word from beginning to end, just watched silently.

What was he afraid of? Ye Qiu was puzzled. Following his gaze, Ye Qiu looked towards the top of the sacred mountain, at the old and sleeping locust tree.

"Ancestor sacrifice spirit?"

Ye Qiu was stunned for a moment. Could it be that what he was afraid of was the old locust tree?

Puzzled and confused.

It was obvious that the old locust tree also participated in the battle just now, but the effect was not very obvious, and we didn't see it unleash any terrifying power.

Could it be that the ancestral spirit is still in a dormant state?

Ye Qiu had learned about the ancestral spirit before. From what Meng Tianzheng said, it was even older than itself.

Back then, after experiencing the great catastrophe of the ancient immortals, the heaven and earth collapsed, and order collapsed. Meng Tianzheng came to the sacred mountain with his broken body and the last wish of the goddess of repairing the sky.

As soon as he entered the sacred mountain, he discovered an old sleeping locust tree growing on the top of the mountain.

It was dying, and on the dead stump there were only a few green leaves and a tender bud, as if it had been reborn after surviving a disaster.

When Meng Tianzheng first discovered it, it was very weak and its strength was average.

But Meng Tianzheng discovered that its soul was extremely powerful, like an ancient giant who was sleeping.

Now, it is not as simple as it seems.

Finally, Meng Tianzheng chose to build the Butian Pavilion on the sacred mountain, and took root there with the old locust tree as his ancestor.

After tens of thousands of years of baptism and sacrifice, the strength of the ancestral spirits has now recovered to a level above the sacrificial path.

Originally Ye Qiu thought that this was its peak strength, but now Ye Qiu was confused.

He could clearly feel that the mysterious strong man in the crack was very afraid of the ancestral spirit. It seemed that he sensed its powerful soul and did not dare to approach.

"Hmm...it seems that the ancestor spirit also has a big secret. Perhaps...it was once an invincible being, but was severely damaged by the catastrophe and fell into a deep sleep. New sprouts have grown to replace the new life, and the real it may still be sleeping at this moment."

Ye Qiu secretly guessed in his heart, and he felt that this guess was close to the truth of the matter.

At the beginning, when Linglong went to pluck leaves and mess with the old locust tree, he went to bring Linglong back and saw the old locust tree.

From the conversation at that time, Ye Qiu felt that the old locust tree’s mentality was like that of an old man who still had a childlike innocence and was very simple.

This was not the mentality that a powerful person should have. Ye Qiu did not think much about it at the time. After apologizing, he promised it that he would keep a close eye on Linglong in the future, and then left in a hurry.

"hateful!"

The Corpse Ancestor's roar of impotent rage brought Ye Qiu back to his senses. He saw him flying into the crack and running away without looking back.

Ye Qiu did not stop him because he was not sure whether the mysterious strong man would take action after crossing the crack.
