Peerless Empress: One Woman, One Sword, Slaying Through Myriad Realms

"Hehehe, Ye Wuxi, let's see where you can hide!" The figure of the fourth Heavenly Demon suddenly appeared on a big tree.

Ye Wuxi's heart tightened, but she calmly cursed, "You old demon dog, your auntie is waiting for you! Don't be impatient, I'll send you to see your third brother right away..."

"Today, I'm going to make you wish you were dead!" the Fourth Demon Lord roared, his true essence surging forth, startling the birds flying around.

"Damn it!" Ye Wuxi cursed inwardly, but his expression remained unchanged as he continued to speak softly.

"Die, you old dog, Cloud Hidden Phoenix Cry!" He then raised the Shadow Reflection Sword, a confident smile playing on his lips.

The fourth demon, who was about to unleash her full power, had a slight glint in her eyes. Wasn't this the same sword that killed her third brother? She could still use it.

After a quick thought, the Fourth Demon King withdrew his attack. Instead, he flashed forward and erected a true energy shield in front of him. He knew he could kill the Third Brother in one move, so he had to be careful...

Ye Wuxi chuckled, "Idiot!" As he spoke, he used the Flowing Cloud Chasing Moon Step to quickly disappear from the spot.

By the time the fourth Heavenly Demon realized what was happening, he had vanished again...

"Ah~ I'll kill you!" the fourth demon roared, unleashing a palm strike in a furious attack that devastated countless flowers, plants, and trees...

Ye Wuxi disappeared back into the mountains and forests, ceasing her cultivation to absorb spiritual energy, lest she attract that old dog again. However, her true energy had only recovered to half its original level, making it impossible for her to unleash the full power of her swordsmanship. Fighting now would be foolish, but escaping like this wasn't a solution either…

"Hey, Sister Little Tree, can you do me a favor?" Ye Wuxi suddenly had a bright idea. While fleeing, she communicated with the little tree in her dantian.

This mysterious little tree can even directly engulf her in raging strange fire; dealing with a piece of trash at the first level of Earth Martial Realm should be no problem, right?

Unmoved by the sapling, Ye Wuxi continued her offensive, "Little Tree Fairy, Little Tree Sister, please help me! If I die, where will you find such a good person..."

Although she still had a token from her cheap master that could save her life, she didn't want to waste it on a mere Earth Martial Realm cultivator.

Upon hearing this, the little tree obligingly shook its branches, and Ye Wuxi's eyes lit up with joy, taking it as a yes. "Little Tree Fairy is indeed the best!"

Ye Wuxi leaped onto the large tree and activated the Chaos Five Elements Technique. The spiritual energy within a radius of dozens of miles gathered there. She wasn't sure if this small tree could really be used for combat, so she would recover as much as she could. If she couldn't win, she could at least run away.

As soon as she moved, the fourth Heavenly Demon detected her presence again and quickly headed towards the point where spiritual energy converged.

"Mountain-Splitting Palm!"

Upon seeing Ye Wuxi on the tree, the Fourth Demon King didn't waste any more words. He unleashed his strongest palm strike, slapping down at Ye Wuxi from afar.

"come out!"

Even though Ye Wuxi was prepared, he couldn't help but curse under his breath when faced with the full force of this Earth Martial Realm cultivator's palm strike. He jumped aside and summoned the little tree.

The sapling burst forth from the body, growing to a height of ten feet, and stood in the void.

What is this thing?

The fourth Heavenly Demon, standing in mid-air, was startled. If he wasn't mistaken, this thing seemed to have come from Ye Wuxi's body. This was truly bizarre...

However, the small tree in front of him was not as attackable as Ye Wuxi had imagined.

"What the hell! Don't just stare..."

Ye Wuxi cursed inwardly, thankfully she hadn't placed all her hopes on the little tree.

With all his might, he activated his dantian, which had recovered to seventy percent, and poured all five-colored true energy into the Shadow Reflection Sword. Ye Wuxi then uttered a soft cry, "Cloud Concealment Phoenix Cry!"

His figure vanished from the spot, the unparalleled sword energy colliding with the Mountain-Splitting Palm. However, it couldn't truly annihilate the palm print; Ye Wuxi was sent flying backward, a trickle of blood at the corner of his mouth. "Damn! That old dog's not bad!"

She has now truly witnessed the power of the Earth Martial Realm. The three she killed earlier were entirely due to surprise; the opponents didn't even have time to attack...

"Hmph! Nothing special," the fourth Heavenly Demon said.

Suddenly, the branches of the small tree, which was about ten feet tall, swayed, and wisps of grayish-white gas emerged from the top of the fourth Heavenly Demon's head and disappeared into the small tree...

"What's going on? What the hell is that?!"

Feeling his life force slowly draining away, the fourth Heavenly Demon's eyes widened in terror. This evil tree was actually devouring his essence and blood...

Ye Wuxi, who was some distance away, also noticed this unusual phenomenon and slapped his forehead, saying, "So that's how it's used!"

She should have realized it sooner. This little tree could absorb the power of various pills and spiritual herbs, and it could also help her absorb the life and death energy of heaven and earth to transform into her cultivation. It was not surprising that it could directly devour the essence of living people.

After tossing two more Rejuvenation Pills into his mouth, Ye Wuxi stepped onto the large tree he had been standing on before.

When the fourth Heavenly Demon landed on the ground, he felt as if all his true energy was out of his control, and a few strands of white appeared in his black hair.

Terrified, he no longer cared about Ye Wuxi not far away; all he wanted now was to escape this horrible place—it was too eerie…

Ye Wuxi's eyes narrowed slightly. The fourth Heavenly Demon had seen her biggest secret, and she absolutely could not let him escape.

"Old dog, why are you running? Come here and fight me right now!"

The fourth Heavenly Demon ignored everything, showing no will to fight. He suppressed his agitated blood and qi, forcibly gathered a breath of true essence, and quickly fled into the distance.

This Ye Wuxi is a demoness, a demon. If this news is spread, Ye Wuxi will definitely not see the sun rise tomorrow.

After consuming a few Rejuvenation Pills, Ye Wuxi recovered 10% of his true energy from his five dantian. He gritted his teeth and flashed away.

"Wind and rain raged!"

A crimson sword aura swiftly slashed down towards the head of the fourth Heavenly Demon.

The fourth Heavenly Demon Lord mustered all his true essence, but as Ye Wuxi approached, his blood and qi were drawn away by an invisible force, and the true essence he had just mustered dissipated.

In that chaotic moment, it was too late for him to gather his true energy; the sword was already upon him.

"No!"

The fourth Heavenly Demon let out a final, unwilling roar, and then lay down stiffly.

After kicking it twice and seeing that the old dog Tianmo was indeed dead, Ye Wuxi breathed a sigh of relief and quickly summoned back the little tree.

After rummaging through his body, Ye Wuxi tossed a few more pills into his mouth, sat cross-legged on the spot, and frantically began to absorb spiritual energy. Exhausting one's true energy in this desolate wilderness was certainly not a good thing…

The sapling that had gone out and absorbed the life essence of the living seemed to have grown a little bit more, and it took root in the center of the dantian, also cooperating in transforming the five elements of spiritual energy.

Ye Wuxi only opened his eyes again after his true energy had recovered by 20%. As for the fourth Heavenly Demon, he was already like a dried-up corpse.

Duan Hong, who came looking for Ye Wuxi, also followed the familiar fluctuations of spiritual energy.
