Chapter 486: Descent into Madness
Ao Qianqian hugged Ye Guan tightly. If Ye Guan ended up dying, then she would follow her to the afterlife. They would live and die together!
Ye Guan froze upon seeing the silver spear sticking out of Ao Qianqian, and his heart was instantly gripped by panic upon noticing that Ao Qianqian was growing cold in his arms.
Ye Guan shivered as if he were a cold man in the middle of winter, but his panic quickly transformed into a fiery and overwhelming rage. This is the third time! The third time! Ao Qianqian has sacrificed herself for me for the third time now!
No! Absolutely not! I refuse to accept this! I'm not gonna let my beloved die in my arms! No...! Ye Guan roared, and his eyes were bloodshot as he exclaimed, "Master Pagoda!”
Boom!
A golden light surged from within Ye Guan, and it whisked Ao Qianqian away into the tiny pagoda. Just then, a crimson pillar of light burst out of Ye Guan, and the pillar of light was so powerful that it blasted the silver spear away.
The ruined star field was dyed crimson, becoming akin to a sea of blood.
The Mad Demon Bloodline had completely awakened!
Ye Guan let the Mad Demon Bloodline loose and allowed it to erode his sanity.
Ye Guan only had one thought in mind—ensure that Ao Qianqian would stay alive.
The Time Reversers were shocked upon seeing Ye Guan covered in a crimson aura.
He actually had another bloodline? And it was even stronger than the first bloodline he had shown everyone. This was absurd!
A middle-aged man was standing with a spear in the distance. The middle-aged man was wearing a tight-fitting black robe, and there was a purple belt around his waist to secure the robe. His long hair flowed freely behind him, giving him a tinge of wildness.
The middle-aged man's black and white eyes were as cold as the night breeze during winter, and everyone nearby dared not to meet his gaze.
The middle-aged man was none other than Diyi Chen, and he was ranked fifth in the Diyi Clan.
The nearby Time Reversers instantly relaxed the moment they saw Diyi Chen. They were wary of Ye Guan and his trump cards. Moreover, he seemed capable of growing even stronger in the middle of battle.
However, Diyi Chen was here, so there was nothing to fear anymore.
The Time Reversers recovered their confidence and were about to charge at Ye Guan when Diyi Chen shouted, "I'll handle this myself!"
The Time Reversers frowned, feeling displeased.
Even though they were confident, they believed that Ye Guan couldn't be underestimated.
The middle-aged man at the helm of the Time Reversers spoke in a deep voice, "Brother Chen, he's pretty strong. I think it's better if we attack him together, just in case."
Diyi Chen raised an eyebrow and snapped, "What? Are you saying that I can't defeat him myself?"
The middle-aged man's brows furrowed. Although he was somewhat displeased, he didn't want to escalate the conflict. Regardless, he decided to explain his thought process to Diyi Chen, but the latter waved his hand dismissively and said, "If we have to gang up on a mere kid just to defeat that kid, then it means we're truly incompetent."
The Time Reversers' expressions darkened at the remark. Diyi Chen's words clearly aimed at them.
The middle-aged man's face had turned ugly as well, but he didn't say anything. He stared coldly at Diyi Chen and walked toward the sidelines.
Diyi Chen quietly shifted his gaze to Ye Guan in the distance. Ye Guan was covered in blood, and he was emitting a powerful bloodline aura.
Diyi Chen sneered contemptuously and muttered, "Bloodline power, eh?"
Diyi Chen stepped forward and reappeared in front of Ye Guan. He thrust his spear toward Ye Guan's chest.
If the spear thrust struck true, ten Ye Guan would be reduced to pieces.
However, Ye Guan's eyes shot wide open just then.
His crimson eyes seemed to reflect a sea of blood as he unsheathed Xuanyuan and slashed out.
Hum!
A resonant sword hum erupted, and a crimson sword light dazzled everyone.
Boom!
Ye Guan and Diyi Chen were both blasted hundreds of meters away.
The Time Reversers revealed extremely grim expressions at the sight. They thought that without Ao Qianqian, Ye Guan would become nothing but a mere child trying to fight an adult with a sword.
However, the contrary had happened—Ye Guan had become even stronger instead.
What was going on?
The Time Reversers stared at Ye Guan in disbelief. The middle-aged man's voice sounded solemn as he pointed out. "It's the power of his bloodline... it has greatly boosted his strength."
Bloodline power?
The Time Reversers nodded in understanding, but they were soon confused.
"What bloodline is that? Why is it so powerful?" someone asked, but no one replied.
The middle-aged man was unwittingly transfixed on Ye Guan covered in a crimson aura. He was incredibly shocked as well, as he had never seen such a terrifying bloodline. Moreover, Ye Guan's bloodline power was still surging crazily, and it seemed like it would endlessly amplify Ye Guan's strength.
Meanwhile, Diyi Chen frowned. How come Ye Guan's attack was as strong as his attack? Diyi Chen couldn't quite understand what had happened in their first exchange.
Diyi Chen quietly examined Ye Guan in the distance with an icy gaze. He stomped with his right foot and transformed into a dazzling spear light that flew toward Ye Guan.
Diyi Chen didn't bother holding back; he had no plans of fighting Ye Guan in a battle of attrition. His goal was to end this fight as soon as possible.
When Diyi Chen made his move, Ye Guan suddenly vanished. Under the astonished gazes of everyone, a crimson sword light collided with the spear light.
Boom! It was a head-on collision, and a terrifying shockwave that staggered the nearby supreme elites erupted from the point of collision.
Diyi Chen himself was blasted a few kilometers away.
A solemn air descended upon the Time Reversers. They were utterly shocked upon realizing that Ye Guan didn't even go flying, while Diyi Chen was blasted away from their exchange.
To make matters worse, Ye Guan seemed unscathed as he charged at Diyi Chen.
The middle-aged man at the helm had an extremely gloomy expression.
They had completely underestimated Ye Guan's bloodline.
Meanwhile, Diyi Chen was in utter disbelief. His all-out move was actually weaker than Ye Guan’s attack. How was that possible?
Diyi Chen cast an incredulous gaze at Ye Guan, and upon seeing that Ye Guan seemed unscathed, Diyi Chen's incredulity transformed into fury.
Diyi Chen twisted his wrist and thrust his spear like lightning.
Every thrust created a spear light that extended for thousands of meters, and it tore everything apart.
Ye Guan’s sword collided with Diyi Chen's spear, and a deafening explosion echoed as Diyi Chen's spear lights shattered like glass.
Diyi Chen couldn't withstand the force behind Ye Guan's attack and was sent flying away, but Ye Guan wasn't done just yet. He transformed into a beam of sword light that rushed toward Diyi Chen in the distance.
Boom!
Diyi Chen managed to defend himself, but he couldn't land at all, as Ye Guan sent him flying again. Eventually, he managed to land, and he was horrified and shocked upon realizing that his fleshly body had been annihilated along with his spear.
Had he actually been defeated? How was this possible?
Swoosh!
Ye Guan reappeared before Diyi Chen, and he immediately slashed out. Diyi Chen’s pupils constricted.
The middle-aged man saw that and hurriedly roared, "Attack!"
The middle-aged man charged at Ye Guan before anyone else; he had no plans of rescuing Diyi Chen, but he knew that he had to attempt a rescue, at the very least.
After all, they were Time Reversers from the Past Clan, and the Past Clan had established an alliance with the Diyi Clan. The alliance would surely fracture if they chose not to attempt to rescue Diyi Chen.
Although disgruntled, the middle-aged man had to prioritize the bigger picture!
The other Time Reversers hurriedly charged at Ye Guan. However, Ye Guan had completely descended into madness and paid no attention to them.
Ye Guan seemed fixated on murdering Diyi Chen.
A hint of fear appeared in Diyi Chen's eyes upon realizing that Ye Guan was ignoring everyone else just to kill him. He finally understood why the Time Reversers of the Past Clan had suggested ganging up on Ye Guan earlier.
Ye Guan was truly terrifying, and Diyi Chen had greatly underestimated the former.
Diyi Chen dared not to face Ye Guan's sword move, and he retreated as fast and as far away as possible. However, Ye Guan's speed abruptly increased dramatically.
Diyi Chen’s heart was gripped with primal fear and shock. He turned around to attempt a counterattack, but—
Shwik!
—a crimson sword light pierced his glabella.
The terrified Diyi Chen was immobilized. His horrified gaze turned to the depths of the starry sky, and he muttered, "Clan Leader, save—"
A dull noise echoed as Ye Guan swung downward, obliterating Diyi Chen's soul!
Just then, the Time Reversers finally arrived next to Ye Guan.
Ye Guan turned around and charged at them.
Ye Guan's strength had reached an unprecedented level under the support of two powerful bloodlines. Moreover, his aura was still surging like mad under the influence of the Mad Demon Bloodline. The Mad Demon Bloodline's aura made the nearby spacetime tremble as if it were boiling water, creating an extremely horrifying sight.
Ye Guan slashed out and sent the middle-aged man at the helm flying into the distance. At the same time, six Time Reversers were killed as collateral. However, Ye Guan himself was sent flying at least a few kilometers away.
The middle-aged man eventually came to a halt, and his eyes filled with horror upon realizing that his fleshly body teetered on the edge of annihilation. He looked up slowly with an incredulous gaze at Ye Guan—what a terrifying bloodline!
Undeterred, Ye Guan charged once again.
A boundless crimson sword light descended upon the Time Reversers, blasting them away. When those Time Reversers recovered their balance, they were shocked to find that Ye Guan's sword move had almost obliterated their fleshly bodies.
They stared at Ye Guan in stupefaction.
Ye Guan resembled the God of Death at the moment, and no one dared to fight him.
However, Ye Guan flew toward them.
Ye Guan's mind only had one thought at the moment—kill!
Ye Guan's descent into madness allowed the Mad Demon Bloodline to show its true potential. This wasn't the first time that the Mad Demon Bloodline had awakened, but Ye Guan had always suppressed the Mad Demon Bloodline whenever it awakened.
In other words, the Mad Demon Bloodline hadn't been able to unleash its true power, all thanks to Ye Guan's suppression.
Ye Guan's Mad Demon Bloodline had received multiple upgrades before it was passed down upon him by his father—the Sword Master. Of course, the Sword Master had also received an upgraded version of the Mad Demon Bloodline from Sword Master Qingshan.
Ye Guan's Mad Demon Bloodline truly had infinite potential, and Ye Guan would be able to tap into that potential by staying alive. Of course, the Mad Demon Bloodline alone wasn't enough to allow Ye Guan to surpass his father and grandfather's power.
Ye Guan moved speedily and killed dozens of Time Reversers in the proverbial blink of an eye.
The middle-aged man's face became unsightly at the unfolding scene. At first, he thought they could fight. However, Ye Guan's aura was growing stronger rather than weakening over time, so the middle-aged man decisively roared, "Retreat!"
The middle-aged man wasted no time and rushed toward the Time River.
Ye Guan looked up and slashed out toward the Time River.
The Time River was torn open, and he transformed into a crimson beam of light before barging into the Time River.
