Great Immortal With Boundless Mana

Chapter 360: Loyalty to the Sky

"You're crazy!"

Xiao Hongye didn't expect Gui Wuqi to be so insane, actually using the Tianxiang Sword Command to unleash the Great Sun Divine Light.

They were able to stand here because they relied on the Tianxiang Sword Command to suppress the Great Sun Divine Light.

Even so, they had to be extremely cautious and not casually unleash their magic power, lest it provoke the restless Great Sun Divine Light.

Gui Wuqi's actions were equivalent to throwing a fireball into a hot oil pan, causing the already scorching oil pan to ignite.

Xiao Hongye could only barely protect herself and Gao Xian with the Tianxiang Sword Command, but she didn't have the ability to extinguish the boiling and turbulent Great Sun Divine Light.

Destroying things was always easier.

Gao Xian said leisurely in Xiao Hongye's ear, "I told you we should have killed this guy. Look, now we're all going to be killed by him."

Xiao Hongye couldn't help but glare at Gao Xian. How could he still have the mood to make sarcastic remarks at a time like this? This man's brain wasn't quite normal.

She anxiously said, "The Great Sun Divine Light is already fierce, and once it's triggered, it's impossible to control. We won't survive, and Gui Wuqi won't escape death either..."

Before Xiao Hongye could finish speaking, she saw Gui Wuqi's Tianxiang Sword Command suddenly explode in his hand, and the protective light surrounding him also shattered.

Gui Wuqi was instantly engulfed by the intensely bright Great Sun Divine Light. However, he appeared calm, pulling out a crimson-golden long sword and managing to barely gather all the surrounding Great Sun Divine Light.

"Chiyang Sword!"

Xiao Hongye's gaze froze. This Rank Four spiritual sword was one of the top-tier weapons of the sect, and Gui Wuqi had actually borrowed it.

Moreover, Gui Wuqi was quite skilled in wielding the Chiyang Sword, indicating that he had specifically refined it for some time.

The Chiyang Sword corresponded to the Great Sun Divine Light, at least in terms of compatibility. However, it was still unlikely to control the Great Sun Divine Light with the Chiyang Sword.

Gui Wuqi didn't have that ability either. Many scattered and intense Great Sun Divine Light fell on him, leaving small black burn marks on his Northern Gang Seven Thunder Magical Robe.

This Rank Three spiritual weapon Magical Robe didn't have much resistance against the Great Sun Divine Light either.

Even Gui Wuqi's face showed a few black burn marks. In the blink of an eye, half of his face was burned away by the Great Sun Divine Light.

Gui Wuqi coldly glanced at Gao Xian, then wielded the Chiyang Sword, transforming into a sword ray and shooting outward.

The dense Great Sun Divine Light split apart under the Chiyang Sword, leaving behind a long crack.

Gui Wuqi, riding on his sword, glided away like a small boat.

An angry Xiao Hongye didn't want Gui Wuqi to escape. She waved the Tianxiang Sword Command in her hand, unleashing intense divine light around Gui Wuqi.

Gui Wuqi's protective sword ray was broken, and his entire body was burned black by the intense divine light. The intense pain stimulated his sword intent, allowing him to regain control of the Chiyang Sword and quickly move away.

Xiao Hongye wanted to make a move again but was a step too slow. Gui Wuqi had already disappeared into the vast Great Sun Divine Light.

Xiao Hongye stared fixedly at the direction Gui Wuqi disappeared, her eyes filled with intense hatred.

She had always thought that Gui Wuqi had a cold and arrogant personality, but she didn't expect him to resort to such despicable and low methods.

If she had known earlier, she would have been more cautious and wouldn't have been harmed by Gui Wuqi like this.

"Uh, don't be so ruthless."

Gao Xian lightly patted Xiao Hongye's shoulder. "Let's leave as soon as possible."

Gui Wuqi may have left, but the Great Sun Divine Light he triggered was becoming more turbulent.

If this continued, it was likely that the Tianxiang Sword Command wouldn't hold up for much longer.

Xiao Hongye's beautiful face showed a hint of helplessness and despair. "We can't escape."

"Huh?"

Gao Xian was a bit puzzled. Xiao Hongye was giving up without even trying to fight back. This was too reckless and casual.

Xiao Hongye understood Gao Xian's meaning and shook her head slightly, saying, "The intense and violent Great Sun Divine Light can hold steady for a while longer. If we move even a little, the pressure on the Tianxiang Sword Command will increase a hundredfold."

She sighed sadly at Gao Xian and said, "I never expected to become a pair of mandarin ducks with a fellow daoist like you."

She self-deprecatingly continued, "Fellow daoist, with your extraordinary talent, it's not a loss for you to die with me."

"You can't say that," Gao Xian softly replied. "Guiwuqi mainly wants to kill me, and you were just implicated. I'm sorry."

Xiao Hongye was a little surprised. Even at the brink of life and death, Gao Xian remained calm and even apologized to her. What kind of cultivation was this?!

She felt complicated and didn't know what to say. Since they were both going to die, whether they spoke or not seemed unimportant.

Gao Xian continued, "How about this, you take the Tianxiang Sword Command and leave, don't worry about me."

He had a clone that could teleport away from this place. Even without the clone, with the Taiji Profound Light, the invisible Heavenly Robe, the Yin & Yang Heavenly Wheel, and various secret supernatural powers, he had a 60-70% chance of leaving the Sun Palace.

After all, Guiwuqi was able to escape, indicating that the Great Sun Divine Light wasn't that difficult to withstand.

Taking Xiao Hongye with him would only cause more trouble.

However, Xiao Hongye was greatly shocked. Her eyes widened, and her beautiful face was filled with disbelief.

At the critical moment of life and death, not even close relatives would necessarily sacrifice themselves to save others. Let alone the fact that she had only known Gao Xian for a few days, and they had at most some good feelings towards each other, without any substantial relationship.

Gao Xian was actually willing to let her leave with the Tianxiang Sword Command. What kind of broad-mindedness was this?!

Xiao Hongye stared straight at Gao Xian. Gao Xian's face was sincere, with a hint of tenderness and affection. It was clear that Gao Xian wasn't just testing her with empty words; he truly meant it.

Xiao Hongye was moved. Many people had been good to her, but this was the first time someone was willing to risk their life for her.

Her heart warmed, and she said with some emotion, "Let's go together!"

Gao Xian looked at Xiao Hongye's fiery eyes and felt satisfied. At least this little girl knew about loyalty and wasn't just selfish.

He naturally reached out and held Xiao Hongye's delicate hand, saying seriously, "You have a better chance of leaving alone. I can also do my best to try, and I might not die. If we separate, there is still a chance for survival, which is better than dying together."

Gao Xian's words made sense and touched Xiao Hongye. A layer of mist appeared in her clear eyes, but she held back her tears.

She hoarsely said, "Let's meet at the entrance. Don't leave without me."

"Agreed."

Gao Xian opened his arms naturally and hugged Xiao Hongye. They were already friends in life and death, so it was reasonable to hug each other.

The woman's body was fragrant, soft, and full of vitality. Holding her in his arms was incredibly comfortable. Gao Xian couldn't help but exert a little more force.

Xiao Hongye was taken aback, but she quickly hugged Gao Xian tightly, as if she wanted to bury this man deep in her heart.

The passionate Xiao Hongye made Gao Xian feel emotional. Danger indeed amplified emotions. At this moment, Xiao Hongye's fondness for him had reached its peak.

If it weren't for the wrong time and place, the two of them could have been intimate.

Gao Xian wasn't ashamed of this. Firstly, he didn't deliberately create this predicament. Secondly, he was genuinely doing it for Xiao Hongye's sake, and the cost wasn't as great as Xiao Hongye imagined. It didn't matter much.

"If I die, kill Guiwuqi for me. Go."

Gao Xian lightly patted Xiao Hongye's back, and although it was affectionate, the timing and location were not right.

If they continued like this, Xiao Hongye, this beauty, would really die here, which would be too much of a pity.

Gao Xian pulled out the Azure Lotus Sword and swiftly slashed forward. In an instant, wind and thunder roared, and the green Sword Ray flashed forward like thunder, cutting a nearly hundred-zhang-long crack in the intense and dense Great Sun Divine Light.

Gao Xian gently pushed Xiao Hongye on the back, and the Great Five Elements Heavenly Gang sent Xiao Hongye along the crack, sending her flying a hundred zhang away. The Great Sun Divine Light, which was pushed open by the Sword Ray, rolled back, and when Xiao Hongye turned her head, she saw Gao Xian smiling and waving at her. Then, the handsome and unruly man was engulfed by the surging Great Sun Divine Light.

Xiao Hongye's heart felt as if it had been cut by a knife, suddenly causing her pain that rendered her speechless, with tears uncontrollably streaming down her face.

At this moment, however, she suddenly thought of not wanting to let down Gao Xian. This was the opportunity that he had exchanged for her with his own life.

She forcibly suppressed her grief and activated the Tianxiang Sword Command, concentrating her entire being like never before, with an unprecedented sharpness in her Divine Sense.

The surging and rolling Great Sun Divine Light appeared in her eyes as thousands of forces.

Some of these forces hindered her, while others could be borrowed.

Xiao Hongye held the Tianxiang Sword Command and continuously borrowed the surging power of the Great Sun Divine Light to move forward.

After moving more than a hundred zhang in this way, the Tianxiang Sword Command in her hand silently shattered.

Fortunately, Xiao Hongye was prepared early on. She disregarded everything and activated the Qingye Sword to break through the Great Sun Divine Light and move forward.

When she was only dozens of zhang away from the exit, Xiao Hongye's Magical Robe had already been burned by the intense Great Sun Divine Light, and her fair skin was mostly carbonized.

The terrifying Great Sun Divine Light and Sword intent penetrated deeper into her body and her sea of consciousness.

At this moment, Xiao Hongye felt as if she was being pierced by countless hot steel needles. Even her soul seemed to be pierced and torn apart. The extreme pain made her willpower collapse.

This kind of pain was even harder to bear than death.

"No hope, just like this..."

Xiao Hongye didn't want to struggle anymore. Instead, her heart became calm, knowing that the pain would soon come to an end.

At the last moment, for some reason, the image of Gao Xian smiling and waving his hand to let her go appeared in Xiao Hongye's mind. That man was so calm and elegant in the face of death...

Carrying all the hopes entrusted by the man, carrying all the affection given to her by the man, she couldn't die like this.

At this thought, a tremendously powerful force suddenly surged in Xiao Hongye's heart. Her Sword intent suddenly soared, completely dispersing the Great Sun Divine Light that was about to burn her body.

"Life in death, death in life. So that's how it is!"

The awakening at the moment of death allowed Xiao Hongye to truly comprehend the changes of life and death in the Qingye Sword Scripture.

The Qingye Sword Scripture only used green leaves as a metaphor for life, death, withering, and flourishing. This sword principle was not difficult to understand.

Among them, there was a general principle: life in death, death in life.

Xiao Hongye had a hard time understanding what this sentence represented in terms of Sword intent. It wasn't until this moment, when she burst with vitality in the midst of annihilation, that she understood the Sword intent that encompassed both life and death.

As a result, her Sword Technique advanced to a higher realm, and her Sword intent also greatly flourished.

With a turn of the Hongye Sword, Xiao Hongye instantly pierced through the layers of the Great Sun Divine Light and arrived outside the Sun Palace.

Having escaped from death, Xiao Hongye's mood was exceptionally complex. She felt the joy of surviving death and comprehending Sword intent, the sourness and sadness of losing Gao Xian, and the anger and hatred towards Gu Wuqi, who was now beyond reach...

Gu Wuqi, not far from Xiao Hongye, was filled with killing intent.

With half of his body carbonized, Gu Wuqi's eyes were gloomy. He was actually somewhat surprised that Xiao Hongye had managed to escape?! He didn't know how this woman did it...

Gu Wuqi wasn't afraid of Xiao Hongye outside the Sun Palace, but he was somewhat worried about Gao Xian. He deliberately said, "Xiao Hongye, your wild man died inside?"

Xiao Hongye became even angrier. Gu Wuqi's mouth was so vile, he deserved to die.

She pointed her Hongye Sword at Gu Wuqi and said, "The so-called Wuqi Divine Sword is nothing more than a despicable person. It's ridiculous. Today, I will eliminate you, this scum, on behalf of the sect!"

"By you?" Gu Wuqi coldly looked at Xiao Hongye while holding the Xuandu Sword.

Outside the Sun Palace, he didn't dare to kill Xiao Hongye, but he didn't mind giving her a profound lesson.

Xiao Hongye swallowed a Medicine Pill and waved her Hongye Sword, causing the reversal of life and death in the Qingye Sword intent to be activated.

Her carbonized and blackened body quickly healed, with the carbonized skin cracking and falling off, revealing tender and white skin underneath.

This change also caused Gu Wuqi's expression to change. He could tell that this was not just the power of the Medicine Pill, but also the unparalleled changes in Sword intent.

This woman almost died in the Sun Palace, yet her Sword Technique greatly improved because of it!

Guīwúqī felt immense pressure. Previously, it was clear that Xiaohongye was a step behind him in Sword Technique. Now, Sword Technique has made great progress, and its Sword intent seems to be surpassing him.

Xiaohongye's eyes were filled with a chilling killing intent. This woman truly wanted to kill him!

Just then, within the Sun Palace, the swirling Great Sun Divine Light underwent another change.

Xiaohongye was startled but then became overjoyed. She had faintly sensed Gao Xian's aura.

In reality, Guīwúqī really wanted to have a showdown with Xiaohongye, even to the point of risking their lives.

The key was to prevent Xiaohongye from rescuing Gao Xian.

Before Guīwúqī could make a move, a green Sword Ray emerged from the Great Sun Divine Light, followed by a charred figure.

Although the figure was burnt beyond recognition, Guīwúqī knew that it was Gao Xian. No one could imitate the pure and sharp Sword intent of the Azure Lotus Sword in his hand.

Guīwúqī couldn't wait any longer. He knew that he would be defeated in a two-on-one battle. Without hesitation, he turned and left.

The charred figure revealed two rows of neatly arranged white teeth to Xiaohongye and said, "Don't leave without fulfilling our deadly date. Fellow daoist, you can really trust people."

His voice was hoarse and dry, and although his words were mocking, he couldn't hide his genuine happiness.

Xiaohongye also felt a great joy. She no longer had any thoughts about Guīwúqī. The most important thing now was to save Gao Xian.

She hurriedly supported Gao Xian and took out two Rank Three Nine Cycles Jade Dew Pills from her pocket, stuffing them into Gao Xian's mouth.

The Rank Three Nine Cycles Jade Dew Pills were Supreme Grade spirit pills used to treat physical injuries, and each pill cost a hundred thousand Low Grade Spirit Stones.

Even if the body was severed into two pieces or the limbs were maimed, one pill of the Nine Cycles Jade Dew could revitalize the body, regenerate severed limbs, and restore the damaged body.

Xiaohongye only had three pills with her. She had already taken one herself, and the remaining two were meant for Gao Xian.

The Jade Dew Pills melted in the mouth and quickly spread a rich vitality throughout Gao Xian's body, inside and out.

In reality, Gao Xian's injuries were not very severe. He had actually gained some insights by looking at two divine steles inside.

However, the Great Sun Divine Light was too intense, and he couldn't endure it for long. He had no choice but to come out first.

In order to win Xiaohongye's affection, Gao Xian had used a little trick to make his injuries appear more severe...

As it turned out, the little trick was quite effective. Xiaohongye was deeply moved and held onto him tightly.

Gao Xian, on the other hand, regretted that both Jade Dew Pills were wasted. These Supreme Grade spirit pills were truly powerful, as his carbonized skin was rapidly healing and regenerating.

After about half an hour, Gao Xian's carbonized skin had mostly returned to its original state. He changed into a spare Azure Lotus Magical Robe.

The Azure Lotus Magical Robe had already been put away, so it was inconvenient to take it out now.

Xiaohongye helped Gao Xian clean up a few times using the Cleaning Technique and wiped his face and body with a handkerchief.

Gao Xian felt a little uncomfortable, but Xiaohongye had a serious expression, so he couldn't stop her.

After tidying up Gao Xian, Xiaohongye finally breathed a sigh of relief. Gao Xian still looked as handsome and radiant as ever, but his eyes, as bright as stars, were somewhat dim, indicating that he was seriously injured.

She softly said, "Once you've regained some strength, we'll leave the Sword Palace and find a place to recuperate."

Gao Xian embraced Xiaohongye's slender waist and gently said, "We're both fine. That's great."

Xiaohongye blushed as Gao Xian's gaze was fixed on her. She looked exceptionally charming and alluring.

Gao Xian lightly touched Xiaohongye's jade-like cheek, causing her to lower her head in shyness. However, Gao Xian lifted her chin gently.

"Hongye, I felt a deep affection for you the first time we met. It seems that we are truly destined..."

After experiencing life and death together, Xiaohongye had developed strong feelings of love for Gao Xian. Hearing Gao Xian's words, her joy grew even stronger.

Just as she was about to speak, he silenced her...
