Douluo Continent: The Sword of Wine Sweeps Across the Sky, One Sword Opens the Heavens

"Drunken Shadow Slash".

The voice was soft, yet carried an undeniable sharpness.

The Ink Shadow Sword, accompanied by the sound of air being torn apart, stabbed fiercely towards the back of the Fallen Soul Sect member.

The Fallen Soul Sect was completely focused on attacking Elder Li and was unaware of the danger behind them.

Only when the sword energy was close at hand did he suddenly feel a bone-chilling cold. He tried to turn around to block, but it was too late.

"Pfft—"

The Ink Shadow Sword pierced precisely into the Fallen Soul Master's back, the blade penetrating his body and drawing out a stream of dark blood—the blood of a Fallen Soul Master corrupted by evil power.

"Wha...who is it?!"

The Fallen Soul Sect member, his face filled with disbelief, slowly turned around and looked at the young man in blue robes before him, his eyes filled with terror.

He, a Soul Master of over forty levels, was actually defeated in one blow by a seemingly very young boy?

This boy's speed and the penetrating power of his sword energy are terrifyingly high?

Xie Yunliu did not respond, but slightly tightened his wrist, gently stirring the Ink Shadow Sword.

"Pfft—"

The Fallen Soul Sect member let out a piercing scream, his body went limp and he vanished completely.

The four spirit rings around his body dimmed and slowly dissipated into the air.

one move.

With a single move, he killed a Fallen Soul Master who was over level 40.

The entire venue fell into a deathly silence.

Ning Rongrong, Elder Li, and the remaining two Fallen Soul Masters were all stunned.

He stared wide-eyed at the young man in the blue robe before him, his face filled with disbelief.

Ning Rongrong looked at Xie Yunliu's figure, a hint of surprise flashing in her eyes, and then she recognized him—the young sword cultivator who ignored her on the main street and became a god in the Soul Arena.

How did he end up here?

He's that strong? He killed a Soul Master in one move?

Old Li was also stunned.

He never expected that such a mysterious and powerful young swordsman would appear at this critical moment.

This boy looked to be only a teenager, and although his soul power fluctuations were only around level 20, his combat strength was terrifyingly absurd.

Killing a Soul Master in one move is something even a Soul King of level 50 or higher might not be able to do.

The remaining two Fallen Soul Masters were trembling with fear, their faces deathly pale.

Even a Soul Master of level 40 was killed in one move, so the two Soul Venerables of level 30 were no match for them at all.

"run!"

One of the Fallen Soul Masters realized what was happening, screamed, and turned to run away.

Xie Yunliu's eyes turned cold. With a slight thought, the Ink Shadow Sword instantly soared into the air, transforming into a streak of black sword light, chasing after the fleeing Fallen Soul Venerable.

It moved with lightning speed and caught up with its opponent in the blink of an eye.

"laugh--"

As the sword energy swept past, the neck of the fallen soul master was slashed open, blood gushed out, and he collapsed to the ground dead on the spot.

The other Fallen Soul Master was so frightened that his legs went weak, and he no longer had the courage to resist. He knelt down with a "thud" and kowtowed repeatedly.

"My lord, spare my life! My lord, spare my life! I will never dare to do it again, please spare my life!"

Xie Yunliu showed no pity whatsoever.

Fallen Soul Masters, who have committed numerous evils and harmed countless living beings, deserve to die.

He raised his hand and the Ink Shadow Sword flew back into his hand. With a gentle flick, a sword aura shot out, instantly piercing the heart of the Fallen Soul Master.

In just a few breaths, all five Fallen Soul Masters were killed.

On the official road, only Ning Rongrong and her group remained, along with corpses and bloodstains scattered all over the ground.

Xie Yunliu sheathed his sword and stood there, his blue robe still neat and tidy, without a single drop of blood on it.

He was slightly out of breath, feeling the depletion of his soul power—after killing five fallen soul masters, including one soul master, he had only consumed less than 30% of his soul power.

However, this is also related to the fact that the two Soul Emperors had previously exhausted each other.

He simply found a loophole and seized the opportunity.

A direct confrontation won't be so easy.

but.

The increased soul power sustain and recovery speed brought by the global amplification are indeed well-deserved.

Moreover, he could clearly feel that his swordsmanship was becoming increasingly fluid in actual combat.

The Shadow Blade Leopard's speed and armor penetration, combined with the Spirit Rhinoceros Jade Horned Beast's all-around attribute advantage, are perfectly integrated into the sword moves.

The strikes are more stable, faster, and more lethal.

The results of the trial far exceeded his expectations.

"Thank you... thank you so much for saving me, young master!"

After regaining his senses, Old Li, dragging his injured body, gave Xie Yunliu a deep bow, his tone extremely respectful.

If Xie Yunliu hadn't appeared in time, he and Ning Rongrong would surely have lost their lives here today.

Ning Rongrong also came to her senses and quickly stepped forward. Looking at Xie Yunliu, the panic on her face gradually faded, replaced by curiosity and admiration.

She bit her lip and said softly, "Thank you. Before... I was wrong. I shouldn't have been rude to you."

Xie Yunliu raised his eyes, glanced at her, his gaze calm and without the slightest ripple.

He recognized Ning Rongrong, but he didn't know that she had come specifically to find him.

In his view, this was just a chance encounter, a casual move, and a good test of his skills.

"It's alright."

He spoke calmly and in a flat tone: "It was nothing."

Having said that, he didn't linger. He raised his hand and summoned the Ink Shadow Sword, which rose into the air and hovered in front of him.

He lightly touched the ground with his toes, leaped onto the sword, and prepared to continue his journey to Tiandou City.

"Young master, please wait!"

Ning Rongrong spoke quickly, taking a step forward, her eyes filled with urgency.

"Young master, I don't yet know your name, so I can repay your kindness in the future!"

Xie Yunliu paused, but didn't turn around, leaving behind only two words.

"Drunken Sword"

As soon as he finished speaking, the Ink Shadow Sword soared into the air, carrying the young man in green robes, and sped towards the direction of Heavenly Dou City.

His green robes fluttered in the wind, the aroma of wine lingered, and his sword aura was imperceptible as his figure gradually disappeared into the horizon.

Ning Rongrong stood there, gazing in the direction Xie Yunliu had left, silently reciting the words "Drunken Sword".

The curiosity and admiration in his eyes grew stronger.

This young man was mysterious, powerful, and composed, like a mystery that made her want to understand him even more.

"Miss Rongrong, this Drunken Swordsman's strength is truly terrifying; he is by no means an ordinary Soul Master."

Old Li walked to Ning Rongrong's side, his tone solemn.

"He looks very young, yet he was able to kill a Soul Master in one move. His background must be quite extraordinary."

Ning Rongrong nodded, her eyes resolute.

"I know."

"Don't worry, Mr. Li, I will definitely find him."

She secretly made up her mind that no matter how much time it took, she would find Xie Yunliu again.

Not only should they repay his life-saving grace, but they should also take a good look at how many unknown secrets this mysterious young sword cultivator still holds.

Looking at Ning Rongrong's expression, Old Li shook his head helplessly but did not try to dissuade her.

He knew that once Ning Rongrong made up her mind about something, no one could stop her.

On the official road, the bloodstains gradually dried, and when the wind blew, it carried a faint smell of blood and the aroma of wine.

A breathtaking attack was swiftly and decisively thwarted by a mysterious young swordsman.

Xie Yunliu was currently traveling swiftly on his sword, his heart filled with confidence in his strength and anticipation of returning to the Heavenly Battle Arena.

With two spirit rings, he now possesses a global amplification ability.

He is ready to unleash a new storm in the Heavenly Battle Arena.
