Chapter 386 Barrier Breaks
The man in black traversed space, blasting towards Ye Ru with a whooshing sound, the sound of wind breaking echoing wherever he went.
Ye Ru's expression gradually turned cold. Over the years, these Deadly Sects had completely deviated from the core principle of Jing Ke dying for his confidant, and instead had become assassins who sold their lives for money, which greatly disappointed him.
The ten kingdoms are like the ten fingers of a person; the destruction of each kingdom would cause incalculable damage.
"The Sacred Ancient Tree!"
Ye Ru narrowed his eyes slightly, and the phantom of an ancient tree behind him gradually changed, finally spreading out in the wind, carrying a rich holy power that swept outwards.
The semi-saint power unleashed by the man in black has been completely sealed off here, and the civil and military officials will not arrive for some time.
Therefore, the only way now is to use the remaining holy power of the Sacred Tree to blast open this barrier.
boom!
“You dare to commit murder right under the emperor’s nose, violating the Confucian principles of loyalty, righteousness, reason, and trustworthiness. You are unworthy of being a scholar.”
The power of the Holy Path within the Ancient Tree of the Holy Path continued to permeate, and Ye Ru's expression turned somewhat cold. With a flick of his finger, several branches shot out from the Ancient Tree of the Holy Path behind him, each branch accompanied by a sharp sound of wind breaking, echoing throughout the space.
"The Sacred Tree? That's interesting. It's a pity you're just a scholar. If you were a Hanlin scholar, I probably wouldn't dare to touch the power of this Sacred Tree. But right now, you can only release one-tenth of its power, so it poses no threat to me."
The man in black flicked his hand, and the brush in his hand instantly condensed into a beam of azure light. As the azure light spread, it swiftly tore through the void and slammed into the tree branches with fierce force.
The brush, imbued with sharp energy, collided with the sacred branch. To Ye Ru's astonishment, the latter was utterly crushed and then shot directly at Ye Ru.
Seeing this, Ye Ru's expression turned slightly cold. He recited the "Rapid Movement Poem" and quickly dodged it, finally flashing away to the other side.
Meanwhile, the branches extending from the Sacred Tree were also frantically bombarding the barrier.
Ding dong!
The dagger struck the semi-saint barrier with a crisp sound, and Ye Ru stood on the other side. Then, his inner energy surged, and he used the Five Animal Frolics fist technique to directly strike the barrier.
Unfortunately, when Ye Ru's fist struck the barrier, it only caused a brief ripple before disappearing without a trace.
"Although you are quite talented, and I appreciate your talent, the principle of the Life-Taking Sect is to take money and solve problems for people. Therefore, your life still needs to be entrusted to me."
As they spoke, ten daggers appeared in the man's hand. He then threw them away violently, and the daggers automatically shot towards Ye Ru, blocking all of Ye Ru's escape routes. This made Ye Ru's expression turn somewhat ugly.
These daggers did not attack Ye Ru; they merely restricted his mobility.
"Facing the eastern cliffs of Jieshi, one can gaze upon the vast sea..."
Taking a deep breath, Ye Ru picked up his brush and wrote Cao Cao's "Viewing the Sea." As the poem fell, those lines transformed into countless rays of light, forming a vast sea that appeared in the sky.
Although this vast ocean is composed of talent, it feels real, and the air is slightly damp.
Moreover, this poem is a scholar's battle poem, and Ye Ru is now a scholar, so he can truly use a scholar's battle poem.
After all, the difference in quality between a scholar's poem and a child's poem is not just a little bit.
"Cao Cao's 'Viewing the Sea'? But with that kind of power, he's really no match for me. I'm like a turtle in a jar right now."
The man in black smiled slightly, and the daggers around him instantly retracted, finally shooting towards Ye Ru from all directions.
"break!"
With a flick of his palm, the vast ocean, carrying terrifying power, slammed fiercely into the surrounding daggers.
However, although the ocean was powerful, the daggers emitted a fierce light and immediately connected together, colliding with it without fear.
boom!
When the two collided, an exceptionally powerful force resounded, causing the entire ocean to explode.
"Humph!"
Ye Ru's face was cold. The ancient tree behind him shot out several more branches. However, just as these branches were about to reach the man in black, a dagger emitting a blue light appeared beside him and cut him off.
The branches fell to the ground and slowly dissipated, which made Ye Ru's expression turn somewhat solemn. The Sacred Ancient Tree he had obtained on the Sacred Path was completely useless here.
This demonstrates just how terrifying the man in black is.
Having withstood the branches of the sacred path, the man in black flicked his wrists, splitting the dagger in two, then in four, before unleashing a torrential downpour upon Ye Ru.
"damn it."
Ye Ru looked at the barrier that was completely unbroken, and his expression turned somewhat grim. The other party was a Hanlin scholar, but his talent far surpassed that of a Hanlin scholar.
Although the other party was a Hanlin scholar, Ye Ru did not panic, because in this place, if he lost his composure, death would be his only fate.
Moreover, he is no pushover; if he goes all out, the outcome is uncertain.
"Time is running out. I'd better kill you quickly, or things might get complicated."
Seeing Ye Ru's helplessness, the man in black's eyes held a faint chill as he slowly walked towards Ye Ru.
Even if he has a way to hide in the palace, it probably won't last long. After all, besides the military prime minister, there is also the civil prime minister. Both of them are powerful Confucian scholars. If they discover him, it will be difficult for him to escape.
If Ye Ru fails to kill the enemy and instead loses his own life, it will be a bad deal.
Watching the black-clad man slowly approach, Ye Ru took a deep breath, and a purple holy page appeared in his hand.
As soon as this purple holy page appeared, the entire world turned purple, like a strange phenomenon of purple aura coming from the east.
"A purple holy page? It seems this harvest has been quite substantial..."
The man in black stared at the purple holy page for a moment, then a burning glint flashed in his eyes. He then burst into laughter, and finally his figure transformed into a beam of light, striking Ye Ru like lightning.
Ye Ru's gaze was icy. He channeled his inner energy into the Sacred Page, then threw it away with a fierce thud. The Sacred Page swelled up in the wind and clashed with the attack.
However, at this moment, a faint sound rang out here, followed by the barrier shattering and finally disappearing into the void.
As the barrier shattered, a voice suddenly rang out:
"You audacious scoundrel, how dare you break the law right under the emperor's nose!"
