I Have A Sword-Chapter 1279: I Dare You To Lay A Finger On Him
Chapter 1279: I Dare You To Lay A Finger On Him
Twenty-three powerful auras shot into the sky, and their powerful auras made even the starry skies tremble as they crushed everything in their path.
The twenty-three top-tier experts stood proudly in the starry skies. These twenty-three experts were all previous emperors of the Heavenly Tomb Empire, and each of them was the strongest cultivator in their respective eras.
At first, they were confused. After all, this fragment of their soul had been sealed for a long, long time. But soon, their vision grew clearer.
Meanwhile, after destroying the phantom of Emperor Tian Zhao, the Supreme Great Dao was about to deal with Ye Guan when it noticed the twenty-three figures standing in the starry skies.
The Supreme Great Dao's eyes narrowed slightly.
The Heavenly Tomb Empire was really going to fight it to the end!
The twenty-three emperors of the Heavenly Tomb Empire stared intently at the Supreme Great Dao.
A middle-aged man dressed in a dragon robe glanced down at Tian Chen and smiled. "Ancestral dragon energy..."
The other emperors smiled in approval as well. Their eyes were filled with admiration and satisfaction. However, no one spared a glance at Tian Xing, who was standing beside Tian Chen.
Tian Xing remained silent. He had long gotten used to that. Ever since his younger brother was born, he had always been the center of attention. Since then, Tian Xing had been working so hard to prove to the world that he wasn't inferior to his younger brother.
The middle-aged man at the forefront turned his gaze toward the Supreme Great Dao and said, "I never expected that one day the Heavenly Tomb Empire would go head-to-head with our Supreme Great Dao."
A black-robed elder beside him chuckled. "Indeed, we never imagined that this generation's disciples are more determined than we were at the time."
The middle-aged emperor looked into the distance and murmured, "The aura of another ancestor... his phantom has been destroyed."
The expressions of the emperors grew grim.
The middle-aged emperor turned to look at Ye Guan, whose situation was growing increasingly unstable. "He must have appeared to protect that young man."
Everyone's attention turned to Ye Guan.
One of the emperors remarked, "He has a mysterious seal within him, and it's incredibly strong."
The middle-aged emperor nodded. "Impressive... But I didn't expect that the ancestor would go so far as to fight the Supreme Great Dao for him."
One emperor suddenly laughed. "Why overthink it? Our ancestor founded an empire in hemp clothes, transcended the Supreme Great Dao, and forged his own path.
"His vision is beyond what we can fathom. Whatever he does, we follow him without question."
The others burst out into a peal of laughter upon hearing that.
Rumble!
A terrifying surge of energy erupted from the emperors. In an instant, all twenty-three of them charged at the Supreme Great Dao.
Others would be afraid of the Supreme Great Dao, but they weren't afraid of it at all. Anyone who had reached the peak of power would inevitably harbor a rebellious heart.
Those who had once been invincible would never submit so easily.
Seeing the twenty-three emperors charging at it, a murderous glint flashed in the Supreme Great Dao's eyes. It was enraged. How dare these insignificant beings defy it?!
The Supreme Great Dao transformed into a Dao river that swept across the battlefield.
Boom!
Terrifying explosions echoed nonstop, and the golden lights in midair vanished one by one.
Tian Xing and Tian Chen's faces darkened at the sight.
Ye Guan looked up, and a blood-red light flickered in his eyes. His powerful willpower had been helping him stand steadfast.
Just then, Ye Guan transformed into a streak of sword light that flew toward the Supreme Great Dao. With a single strike, a terrifying sword force ripped apart everything in its path.
The Supreme Great Dao sensed something. It turned around, just in time to face a sword light. The Supreme Great Dao clenched its right fist and threw a punch that manifested a myriad of star fields.
Boom!
Ye Guan's sword light shattered in an instant, and he was sent flying away, but the very next moment, he transformed into another streak of sword light and charged at the Supreme Great Dao once again.
Ye Guan and the emperors charged at the Supreme Great Dao like madmen.
Divine Attendant Pei silently watched the scene unfold. She was filled with doubt.
Emperor Tian Zhao clearly knew Ye Guan.
How come?
Of course, that wasn't the most pressing issue at the moment. What really puzzled her was why Emperor Tian Zhao would go as far as to challenge the Supreme Great Dao for Ye Guan's sake. After all, the Supreme Great Dao was backed by a powerful Tier Ten Civilization.
She didn't believe for a second that Emperor Tian Zhao had lost his mind.
This situation was becoming more and more mysterious.
Divine Attendant Pei did not leave immediately. Instead, she decided to step back several hundred thousand meters away, distancing herself from the battlefield.
The Dao Transformation Realm experts summoned by the Supreme Great Dao were left dumbfounded. When they arrived, they expected an easy task, but they soon realized that something was off.
Emperor Tian Zhao was summoned.
They recognized Emperor Tian Zhao, as he was a legendary figure. What they hadn't expected was that he would take on the Supreme Great Dao for the sake of the young swordsman.
Something was not right here.
The Dao Transformation Realm experts exchanged glances. Then, they turned around and fled. They had no intention of risking their lives for the Supreme Great Dao. At first, they hoped to profit from the situation by currying favor with the Supreme Great Dao, but they weren't going to throw their lives away.
Meanwhile, the battle grew more intense.
Originally, the twenty-three emperors were on the losing side, but with Ye Guan's intervention, the tide of battle turned.
Although Ye Guan couldn't unleash his full power at the moment, he was able to shatter the Supreme Great Dao's spiritual energy, all thanks to the Qingxuan Sword. Combined with the twenty-three emperors restraining the Supreme Great Dao, they were actually holding their own against the Supreme Great Dao.
As the battle intensified, however, the emperors' bodies became increasingly illusory. They weren't using their true bodies, so the longer the battle went on, the more exhausted they became.
Tian Xing muttered, "They can't hold on much longer."
Tian Chen frowned upon hearing that. "Do we have any other trump cards left?"
Tian Xing shook his head.
They had already used their strongest trump cards.

"How come the ancestor recognized Brother Ye?" Tian Chen asked.
"You have no idea?" Tian Xing glanced at Ye Guan and sighed deeply. "It seems that your Brother Ye's background is more terrifying than we imagined."
Tian Chen nodded. "He's indeed extraordinary, but I had no idea that he's that extraordinary."
The battle went on amidst the starry skies.
Ye Guan and the emperors had joined forces to surround the Supreme Great Dao, but the Supreme Great Dao was still effortlessly handling the situation. In fact, his aura was growing stronger as the battle went on.
As for Ye Guan, he fought like a madman, growing fiercer with each strike, but the twenty-three emperors were becoming blurrier and blurrier.
This kind of high-intensity battle was too draining for them. They couldn't hold on much longer. In half an hour, they would become completely exhausted.
Just then, the middle-aged emperor at the forefront suddenly stopped, and the other emperors followed suit. They exchanged glances, resolution flashing in their eyes.
The middle-aged emperor looked at Ye Guan, who was attacking the Supreme Great Dao. "Young friend, our strength is limited. We can no longer fight by your side. Please look after the Heavenly Tomb Empire in the future."
With those words, he and the other emperors erupted into flames. The next instant, twenty-three burning golden lights shot toward the Supreme Great Dao.
They knew that they would eventually be utterly drained. Rather than letting that happen, they chose to ignite themselves, pushing themselves to their peak for one final blow.
The emperors' auras reached their peak.
Then, before countless eyes, the golden lights crashed into the Supreme Great Dao.
Boom!
The starry skies were engulfed in an endless sea of flames.
A cataclysmic explosion occurred, and waves of flames swept across the universe region. The plaques within the palace exploded one by one. When the last remaining plaque exploded, the starry skies became silent.
Everyone stared at the fiery expanse. Amidst the flames stood Ye Guan with a broken sword in hand. He was emanating a powerful sword energy; his eyes were half-closed, and his brows were furrowed.
He had just realized that his willpower had undergone a profound transformation while he was fighting the seal within him. The Supreme Great Dao stood across him, and its face was marred with fury.
It wasn't exactly injured, but the shame welling up in its chest was agonizing.
It was humiliation of the highest order!
It was a supreme Great Dao, and it was being defied by mere ants!
The Supreme Great Dao clenched its right fist, and Dao energy converged on its fist. The energy was so powerful that it seemed capable of crushing the entire universe region.
Not far away, Ye Guan held his broken sword horizontally before him. He couldn't unleash his sword intent, but by sheer force of will, he was resisting the terrifying pressure of the Great Dao.
The Supreme Great Dao glared at Ye Guan and was about to attack when—
"Great Dao Dog." A booming voice suddenly echoed, and a spacetime rift manifested. "I dare you to lay a finger on him."
