Chapter 462: Peerless Sword (1)

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

Yan Ling initially caused the disciples of the Sword Reverence Manor to fall into a profound slumber. Yet, persistently provoked, she couldn’t refrain from being merciless towards them.

“Didn’t you want to study the power of nightmares? Experience it yourself then!”

Yan Ling’s eyes were cold. In the next second, a few figures flew up from the ground and headed straight for the old man.

These figures were the Sword Reverence Manor disciples who had fallen into a nightmare.

Their eyes were shrouded in black fog as they walked towards the old man like puppets.

“Flame Sparks!”

Looking at the Sword Reverence Manor disciples who did not recognize anyone at all, the old man’s expression was serious as he slashed with the longsword in his hand.

Sparks descended upon a few of them. In a flash, they were pushed back by the sparks, though no harm befell their lives.

“Sword of Forging Flames, Heavenly Punishment!”

Suddenly, the flames on both sides of the old man’s sword soared.

It seemed as though a furnace had been introduced to the wind. The fierce flames enveloped Yan Ling.

“This is bad!”

Yan Ling’s pupils constricted slightly. She could not help but feel a little helpless.

The Nightmare Maze had drained a significant portion of her nightmare power. Forcibly mobilizing the Dreamlore soldiers and creating the Nightmare Barrier had depleted the spiritual energy in her body to an extreme extent.

Considering her enemy was in the Dharma realm, managing to ensnare him for a brief period was already pushing her limits.

Looking at the approaching flaming sword, Yan Ling’s eyes revealed helplessness.

“Your Majesty, I’m sorry to let you down!”

Yan Ling sighed inwardly. She thought that it would not be a problem to obtain the Peerless Sword, but she did not expect to encounter two Dharma experts in a row.

The Dreamlore soldiers had not made any progress. As the general of the Dreamlore soldiers, she had an undeniable responsibility.

Perhaps death would prove that she had used all her strength.

At this thought, Yan Ling closed her eyes and waited for the flaming sword to land on her.

“Blood Flame!”

At that moment, a dignified voice suddenly sounded, and a blood-colored figure flashed past.

The flaming sword shattered upon impact from the kick, transforming into sparks that descended.

“Who’s there?!”

The old man’s eyes narrowed as he looked at the figure that suddenly appeared.

“That’s the… Fire Qilin?”

The old man’s eyes narrowed when he saw the tall mutated beast covered in scales with antlers on its head.

This manifestation undeniably resembled the mutated beast documented in the records—the Fire Qilin. Despite its altered appearance, the warmth it emanated was unquestionably genuine.

“Blood-colored flames. Could there be another Qilin in this world?”

“Mystic Yang soldiers, listen up. Destroy the Sword Reverence Manor!” Mei Changge sat on the Blood Flame Qilin and looked coldly at the old man.

“Yes!”

Voices resonated, followed by each member of the Mystic Yang soldiers descending like small suns.

“Y-Your Majesty…!”

Yan Ling opened her eyes and looked at the figure sitting on the Blood Flame Qilin with disbelief on her face.

Yan Ling did not expect Mei Changge to come personally. She could not help but feel ashamed.

She hadn’t even fulfilled the mission assigned to her, and now she found herself relying on his assistance. This left her with indescribable emotions.

“Dreamlore soldiers, listen up. Release the Nightmare Barrier and destroy the Sword Reverence Manor!”

Mei Changge looked coldly at the old man and spoke again.

“Yes, Your Majesty!”

The dark clouds instantly split open, revealing Dreamlore soldiers in black armor.

Upon activation, the Nightmare Barrier had to sustain its current state and couldn’t be easily relocated. After all, the barrier served as a passive defense or an array formation designed to ensnare the enemy.

Otherwise, Yan Ling would not have faced the Dharma expert alone.

“Who are you?!”

The old man did not dare to do anything and stared intently at Mei Changge, who was beside the Blood Flame Qilin.

The pressure from the Blood Flame Qilin made him tremble in fear, let alone Mei Changge, who was sitting on the Blood Flame Qilin.

“I’ll leave him to you!”

Mei Changge patted his palm gently and jumped down from the Blood Flame Qilin.

Roar!

When the Blood Flame Qilin heard Mei Changge’s words, a glint flashed across its eyes. Then, its figure turned into a blood-colored stream of light, charging at the old man’s face.

Bam!

Its four limbs and hooves were covered in blood-colored flames. It was like a floating cloud, filled with a strange beauty.

The Blood Flame Qilin’s body was huge and its power was equally formidable.

The old man swiftly positioned his sword horizontally in front of his chest. His expression shifted, and before he could muster his strength, he was sent flying.

Roar!

The Blood Flame Qilin took a step forward, and its body once again transformed into a stream of light. As if it had found a delightful toy, it hurried to the location where the old man had been sent flying. With a nudge of its head, the old man was propelled into the air again, resembling a tossed ball.

Looking at the Blood Flame Qilin, Mei Changge could not help but smile. The Blood Flame Qilin, which had regained its intelligence, treated this old

man as a toy.

Despite being a Dharma expert, the old man yielded under the pressure of the Blood Flame Qilin and did not resist, enduring a continuous barrage of kicks.

“Drink this. ”

Mei Changge looked at Yan Ling and threw out a jade bottle. It was the well water of the Moon Well.

It was great for healing.

“Thank you, Your Majesty!”

“I’ve let you down! Please punish me, Your Majesty!”

Yan Ling forcefully got up and half-knelt in front of Mei Changge. She did not frown even when blood flowed out of the wounds on her body..
