"Be careful and don't fight if you can't win!"
Yitian hurriedly warned Yifeng and the others, then stomped his foot on the ground and rushed out like a shadow, instantly covering a distance of several dozen feet.
In front of Yitian was an eighth-rank warrior, wielding a large saber that gleamed with a cold light.
Yitian's Jinlin Sword was like a streak of sword light, a point of starlight piercing straight for the opponent's throat.
The warrior did not expect Yitian's speed to be so terrifying and could hardly react in time. He could only hastily sweep his saber to block the incoming sword shadow.
Clang...
Yitian's sword struck the opponent's large saber, leaving a deep sword mark and sending sparks flying.
The terrifying force made the warrior's arm go numb, and he was slightly delayed.
But in that brief moment of delay, Yitian's sword slashed from another direction, instantly killing the opponent and leaving a long, thin wound on his chest, from which blood gushed out.
In just two moves, Yitian had slain an eighth-rank warrior with rich combat experience.
However, Yitian soon found himself surrounded.
Three attacks, each sharp and swift, came at Yitian, each aiming for his vital points.
These three attacks were extremely vicious and tricky, even a ninth-rank warrior would struggle to completely counter them, likely becoming flustered and exposing a weakness, giving the opponent an opportunity.
No matter how Yitian dodged, the attacks would follow him.
If Yitian were a seasoned warrior, he might have a way to counter these three sharp attacks, but although his cultivation was powerful, his combat skills were very immature.
In this critical moment, Yitian used the Feather Flight technique, soaring into the sky like a flying crane.
Boom...
The three powerful attacks swept past Yitian's original position, leaving several dozen-foot-long cracks in the ground, each several feet deep, as if torn by a fearsome beast's claws.
Yitian's mind raced, and he flew up to a height of several dozen feet, evading the attacks of the three high-ranking warriors.
But at that moment, a terrifying sword aura, several dozen feet long, surged up from the ground, as if it could tear the heavens apart.
On the ground, a cold and ruthless man, exuding a killing aura, rushed forward after delivering that sword strike.
"It's Lord Deathbringer."
The three Dark Skull Gang members attacking Yitian were somewhat surprised; they did not expect Deathbringer, one of the Four Gods of the Dark Skull Gang, to personally intervene.
Yitian was very strong, and any one of them might not be his match, but together, even a regular ninth-rank warrior could be matched or even defeated. As high-ranking members of the Dark Skull Gang, they had such strength.
At this moment, Yitian, who had flown into the air, could not dodge and could only face the sword aura head-on.
"Pure Yang Sword Qi, Slash!"
Faced with the sword aura filled with killing intent, Yitian poured a vast amount of Pure Yang True Qi into the Jinlin Sword, which suddenly burst into a brilliant, scorching sword aura, colliding with the terrifying sword aura.
After this explosive strike, Yitian was exhausted and drifted down to the ground, as if weightless.
Even though his Feather Flight technique was highly refined, it could not stop his descent.
When Yitian was only two feet from the ground, Deathbringer had already rushed over, and another lethal sword aura slashed at him.
Boom!
Yitian swung his sword again, and the sword aura exploded.
The terrifying impact sent Yitian flying back several dozen feet, landing on the ground and sliding backward.
As soon as Yitian landed, Deathbringer was already in front of him.
Yitian engaged in a fierce battle with the opponent, their fight so intense that it was almost impossible for outsiders to follow, only seeing countless sword lights flashing in the air, with scorching or lethal sword auras tearing the ground into huge cracks.
The two seemed evenly matched, but Yitian was in great distress.
Only he knew how terrifying this ruthless man was, each sword strike sharp and filled with killing intent, repeatedly aiming for vital points.
Yitian's Pure Yang True Qi, both in quantity and refinement, was on par with a ninth-rank warrior.
However, facing Deathbringer of the Dark Skull Gang, Yitian could only retreat step by step, fully defending and unable to counterattack, nearly encountering danger several times.
If not for his flesh and blood being fully tempered by Pure Yang True Qi, his extremely sharp reaction and terrifying intuition for danger, he would have been in even greater peril.
Moreover, his physical strength reached twenty thousand pounds, far exceeding the limit of a ninth-rank warrior. Each of his sword strikes carried immense force, disrupting the opponent's rhythm in their clashes, otherwise, he would have been in even greater danger.
Yitian's mind was intensely focused as he battled Deathbringer, one of the Four Gods of the Dark Skull Gang.
Gradually, Yitian began to absorb combat experience from the intense battle.
Meanwhile, the other members of the Reincarnation Team were not so fortunate.
Each of them was being pursued by one or two high-ranking warriors, with a large number of Dark Skull Gang members following behind.
If not for their mastery of the Feather Flight technique, allowing them to escape quickly, jumping several dozen feet at a time, they would have been hacked to death by the Dark Skull Gang long ago.
Especially the high-ranking warriors of the Dark Skull Gang were the most dangerous.
Their True Qi could injure from a distance, and several times, Yifeng and Yikuang narrowly avoided severe injuries.
Even when they timely countered those attacks, the exploding True Qi still had powerful killing power, leaving them with numerous wounds, covered in blood, and in a sorry state.
Although Yifeng and the others were being chased around, they did not leave the area.
Captain Yitian was still in battle, and they could not abandon him.
Moreover, this was their first real battle, and they gradually became more aggressive in the fighting.
Fortunately, they had the Feather Flight technique, which made them faster than ninth-rank warriors, preventing them from being surrounded by the Dark Skull Gang.
Both sides engaged in intense pursuit and slaughter across the vast land.
Yitian's battle with Deathbringer was extremely intense from the start.
Their battle affected a large area, with a radius of several dozen feet, the sword auras tearing everything apart.
After hundreds of moves, Deathbringer of the Dark Skull Gang finally noticed something was wrong. The opponent's combat skills were becoming more proficient, and his attacks were being countered more and more skillfully.
Clang...
After pushing Yitian back with a sword strike, Deathbringer's aura suddenly became ethereal, and a terrifying, sharp killing aura enveloped him.
"Bad!"
Yitian's face changed; the opponent was using a combat technique.
"Human Killing Sword!"
In the next moment, Deathbringer's sword pierced through several dozen feet of space, like a giant sword from the heavens, aiming straight for Yitian. The vast True Qi transformed into this sword, almost capable of slicing through space.
How terrifying!
After this sword strike, Yitian could not dodge.
Even with his highly refined Feather Flight technique, which was faster than a ninth-rank warrior, the speed of this sword strike was several times faster, and no ninth-rank warrior could evade it.
"Break!"
Facing this life-threatening situation, Yitian fully activated the Pure Yang Technique, and the vast, scorching Pure Yang True Qi turned the area around him into a sea of fire. Instantly, a brilliant sword light slashed out.
Boom!
It was like a collision at the beginning of the world.
Deathbringer's sword instantly shattered Yitian's sword light, broke through the sea of fire, and struck Yitian's Jinlin Sword.
Bang...
Yitian was sent flying by this terrifying sword strike.
At the moment of being sent flying, the terrifying force almost tore his body apart, and his internal organs ached, likely suffering internal injuries. A trace of the terrifying sword aura also entered his body, adding to his injuries.
"Hmm!"
Deathbringer of the Dark Skull Gang was somewhat surprised to see that Yitian was only injured and not killed.
He knew the power of this technique, which he had obtained by chance, an upper-grade combat technique called the Three Killing Swords, with three moves: Heaven, Earth, and Human Killing Sword.
Now, his Human Killing Sword, filled with powerful killing intent, could easily slay a ninth-rank warrior.
