Tang Ye was unable to evade as well. Of course, he wouldn’t resign himself to death. He clenched his right hand into a fist, and golden light flickered on it as he smashed it directly towards Man Shi’s lion paw that was a few dozen times larger than his own fist! Bang! A muffled bang resounded on the battlefield. As soon as he came into contact with Man Shi’s enormous paw, Tang Ye’s pupils had constricted, and then enormous came from the point of contact. A mouthful of blood sprayed from his mouth before his figure was blasted flying, and he flew for almost 80m before he finally stopped after colliding with a few trees. On the other hand, right when Man Shi was about to follow up with another attack, the 36 swords had suddenly formed a straight line before they flashed and shot towards Man Shi like a bolt of lightning. Roar! Man Shi raised his head and roared furiously before he raised his enormous paw once more, and then he slapped it forcefully towards the row of 36 swords. Hiss! The swords weren’t blasted flying, and they pierced a bloody hole through Man Shi’s paw with ease instead. After that, they didn’t slow down at all as they shot towards Man Shi who resided behind the paw! Man Shi’s enormous pupils constricted violently when he saw this. Obviously, he hadn’t expected that these swords which were boosted by 3rd level Sword Intent would actually be so terrifying. At this moment, it was already too late for him to evade, but he didn’t sit there and wait for death to arrive. His figure shook, and he made those swords that were stabbing towards his neck to pierce his left chest instead. Hiss! The sword pierced through Man Shi’s left chest without facing any obstruction, and an enormous, striking, and shocking bloody hole appeared there. However, this wasn’t the end of it. After the 36 swords pierced through Man Shi’s left chest, their formation changed. They shot up into the sky above Man Shi, formed a circle, and then stabbed directly downwards at Man Shi! Man Shi’s pupils constricted violently. He’d experienced how terrifying these swords were, so he naturally didn’t dare go head-on against them. He immediately slapped his paws onto the ground, and he relied on the counterforce to pounce once more towards Tang Ye who was controlling the sword formation why resting himself against a large tree in the distance. Darkbeasts were formidable because of their physical defense and strength. At this moment, his defense was completely useless against Tang Ye because those swords could easily pierce through his defense while boosted by Sword Intent at the initial-stage. So, one of his advantages against human profounders was gone. Now, he only had one last advantage, and it was his physical strength and attack. Even though this human’s physical body was extremely strong as well, it was much inferior when compared to his own! Tang Ye’s expression changed when he saw Man Shi pounce over. Right at this moment, an invisible pressure suddenly surged out from the violet mink on Tang Ye’s shoulder, and it enveloped Man Shi. Man Shi’s speed instantly slowed down when he came into contact with the violet mink’s pressure, and he revealed undisguised shock as he gazed at the violet mink. Because he noticed that this tiny fellow’s bloodline pressure was actually effective against him, and it caused him to even shiver at the depths of his soul! What exactly is this tiny fellow’s background? This thought flashed in Man Shi’s mind, and then he didn’t hold back at all as he emanated the imposing aura he possessed as a Spirit Rank Darkbeast and utilized it to resist the violet mink’s bloodline pressure. At the same time, he grunted coldly and shot explosively towards Tang Ye who was resting against the large tree. He couldn’t kill the tiny fellow, and he wouldn’t dare to do it even if the violet mink stood there and let him kill it. It wasn’t just because of Hu Zongyuan’s instructions, it was also because he felt that the tiny fellow’s origins were definitely extraordinary. So, he didn’t want to offend the forces that stood behind the tiny fellow. The little fellow couldn’t be killed, and he didn’t dare to do so, but the human who stood before him was someone he would kill no matter what!Man Shi’s enormous paw whistled sharply through the air as it smashed down towards Tang Ye. While the paw still hadn’t arrived, the enormous gust of wind created by it caused the large tree behind Tang Ye to curve into a weird shape. Tang Ye’s eyes narrowed slightly as he gazed at the enormous paw. He was just about to circulate the profound energy in his body, but right when he did that, he noticed to his astonishment that there wasn’t a trace of profound energy left within his body. Only now did he remember that he hadn’t just controlled 36 swords with the Sword Control Technique, he’d even executed the Energy Split Sword Technique. So, he’d completely exhausted the profound energy within his body! Tang Ye took a deep breath before he commanded in his heart, and then the Pearl of Baleful Blood that had been always hidden in the pool of golden profound energy within his Vortex Dantian rose slowly. Right when he was about to utilize it, roaring laughter that carried an aged voice resounded abruptly. “Not bad, not bad! Gold element profound energy and the initial-stage of Sword Intent before the age of 20! Someone decent has finally appeared in the Sword Sect after a thousand years! With a cultivation at the First Heaven Realm, not only did you persist for so long before a Spirit Realm expert, you even injured him. You have a bit of my style from all those years ago. Haha....” As soon as these words finished resounding through the air, a white haired old man who wore a Daoist’s robe and had a wine gourd hanging from his waist had mysteriously appeared out of thin air before Tang Ye.
