The Kui, a fierce creature from the ancient times of vast mountainous wilderness, resembled an ox with a dark body and no horns, and it had only one foot; their numbers were also exceedingly rare.
However, Kui naturally had very low intelligence, and could only act on instinct like wild beasts throughout their lives.
But perhaps as compensation for its deficiency, the Kui were born in the Ninth Realm, with a body several times stronger than that of the Body Cultivators of the Human Race within the same Realm! They were truly considered the overlord during the ancient times.
Unfortunately, these Kui were hunted to extinction by Great Cultivators of ancient times because their hide and bones were top Exotic Treasures used in creating Magical Treasures, eventually they perished in the river of time.
This fierce beast, which only existed in records, was now incredibly alive in front of Liang Yi.
Its inky body differed from the records, but there was no doubt that this indeed was a Kui.
The colossal black foot blocked out the sun and the sky, Liang Yi seemed as insignificant as an ant in comparison, and the mountain-sized gigantic foot came crashing down with the immense force of a collapsing heaven upon Liang Yi.
At the same time as the crisis from the sky descended, Tian Anyu stood before Liang Yi with black demonic flames soaring around him, grinning with a raised, punch-ready fist. Although his stature was not even one percent of the Kui's size, the threat he posed to Liang Yi was dozens of times greater!
Boom—
The foot of the Kui and the fist of Tian Anyu smashed onto the blade simultaneously, the solid ground instantly collapsed, dirt tumbled, and shockwaves spread rapidly in all directions like tidal waves, leaving not a single flat area within a hundred miles and reducing everything in sight to rubble!
And the ground-shaking impact that caused the collapse did not end there; the intense vibrations continued for several breaths before it finally subsided slightly.
The space within nearly a thousand miles had become fragmented, mountains collapsed, seas flowed backward, innumerable valleys appeared, and thick clouds of dust obscured everything!
All of it was Dao Rhythm within Liang Yi's Domain, which was supposed to remain undamaged under the attack of a Cultivator in the Ninth Realm, but now was in such a pitiful state.
When the dust settled, a figure slowly rose from the haze.
Tian Anyu frowned at the ground and then, confusedly, glanced at his right fist covered with blood, which was slowly dripping.
That strike had undoubtedly hit Liang Yi, this he was certain of, and the blood on his fist proved that Liang Yi had sustained serious injuries from it.
After his punch, Tian Anyu, along with the Kui, had continuously bombarded Liang Yi for a while, stopping only when he sensed Liang Yi's weakening presence.
But despite having grievously wounded Liang Yi, Tian Anyu felt an odd sensation because it seemed to him that Liang Yi had done little to effectively resist that blow.
"Strange, what exactly is this kid plotting?"
The towering black silhouette behind Tian Anyu slowly dissipated, leaving him frowning in midair and staring down at the massive pit beneath his feet.
Because the dust obscured his vision, Tian Anyu released his Divine Sense, wanting to check on Liang Yi's current condition.
But the moment he let his guard down, a pair of calm eyes opened amidst the smoke, and dazzling sword light burst through the dust, slicing it apart, a sword aiming for Tian Anyu! Behind the sword was Liang Yi, covered in bloodstains!
Right then, every cell in Liang Yi's body was wailing in agony, intense pain surged from his Divine Soul in waves, as if someone was slashing at his nerves with a small knife!
The Endless Dao within his body churned arduously, and together with the dim Qinglian in his Divine Soul, they sent a sliver of Vitality to Liang Yi. But faced with the bombardment that could kill most peak cultivators in the Ninth Realm, this Vitality was as insignificant as a drop in the bucket.
At the crucial moment, Liang Yi used the Law of Disruption as the core to protect his Divine Soul, preventing it from being hammered into smithereens by Tian Anyu. With the full force of the Qinglian Creation, he managed to survive the hit.
But the price was that now the Qinglian was dim to the extreme, and it wouldn't recover without some time.
Despite this, Liang Yi still squeezed out the scant Spiritual Power and strength within his body, and after using the dust to conceal his presence, he boldly launched a counterattack!
"Karma, Reverse!"
Liang Yi's eyes spoke in a calm, low voice; in the sky of the Domain, two stars suddenly shone brightly, casting their light from heaven, attaching to the Yuan Zhou blade!
The moment Tian Anyu saw Liang Yi swinging his sword, his sense of crisis soared anew!
Even with severe injuries, the hand that Liang Yi held the sword with was still incredibly steady, pointing directly at Tian Anyu's forehead!
Tian Anyu's body, which had previously extinguished the demonic flames, once again showed signs of reignition. As long as his body was enveloped by the Corrosion of Darkness Law, he was confident he could withstand Liang Yi's strike! He did not believe that Liang Yi, heavily injured as he was, could inflict any further harm on him!
Time seemed to slow down in that moment, as the rising black flames and the Sword Intent, cutting through the void and inching closer to Tian Anyu's brow, refused to yield to one another!
Although Liang Yi's strike was beyond Tian Anyu's expectations, the battle-hardened Tian Anyu's reaction was lightning-fast. The moment Liang Yi appeared, Tian Anyu immediately acted on his internal alarm and wrapped his entire body in flames created by the Corrosion of Darkness Law.
Just as Liang Yi's strike was about to be warded off by the flames, Liang Yi clenched his teeth, a touch of madness flashing through his eyes.
Seeing the madness in Liang Yi's eyes, a trace of ominous feeling passed through Tian Anyu's mind.
In an unseen place, the Qinglian, slowly rotating within Liang Yi's Divine Soul, paused for a moment, then exploded with a thunderous roar!
The last Vitality and Origin of Qinglian transformed into streaks of pure air, burrowing into Liang Yi's limbs and bones, revitalizing his weakened spirit, and burgeoning with new power!
Sensing the change in Liang Yi's aura, Tian Anyu realized it was too late to change his tactic. With eyes nearly splitting with rage, he could only watch helplessly as Liang Yi gently thrust his sword, Yuan Zhou, striking his brow right before the Corrosion of Darkness Law could envelop him!
At that moment, two profound peaks of Sword Intent erupted, shooting up into the sky, resonating with the entire world!
Amid Tian Anyu's angry gaze, an invisible thread emerged within the Void, one end connected to Liang Yi, and the other end, somehow, already linked to himself!
"This Sword Intent... it's Chen Hua's Karma Sword Intent!"
Tian Anyu was all too familiar with his old rival Chen Hua's Sword Intent. Chen Hua's Karma Sword Intent was incredibly subtle, for example, its most headache-inducing aspect, the unstoppable strikes, were due to these invisible threads of karma that ensured every strike, no matter how he dodged, would eerily find its way to him!
And now, this karmic thread had appeared once again, though unleashed by Liang Yi's hand.
The instant the thread appeared, another Sword Intent shone brilliantly, and in its light, the wounds on Liang Yi's body healed at a speed visible to the naked eye, his aura climbing swiftly to its peak!
Conversely, a series of injuries started to appear on Tian Anyu's body, identical to the ones vanishing from Liang Yi's.
Had Tian Anyu been in his prime, such injuries, though severe, would not have been fatal.
But now, with the Law of Disruption suppressing him, both his physical strength and recovery ability were directly slashed by forty percent. Under these circumstances, such injuries had become fatal! And to make things worse, there was Liang Yi, whose state had returned to its peak!
In a split second, the severe pain from both his Divine Soul and physical body forced Tian Anyu to clench his teeth tightly, sweat beads the size of beans falling from his forehead, almost screaming out loud!
"Gu Chengan's... Reverse Sword Intent!!"
With great difficulty, Tian Anyu opened his eyes, glaring at Liang Yi with gritted teeth. He had briefly interacted with Gu Chengan back in the day and had some understanding of Gu Chengan's mystical Reverse Sword Intent. However, he could have never imagined that after Gu Chengan's death, this Sword Intent that should have been lost reemerged in Liang Yi's hands!
No wonder he had felt a familiar sensation upon entering this Domain. The Sword Intent constructing this Domain included not only Chen Hua's Karma Sword Intent but also Gu Chengan's Reverse Sword Intent, as well as Su Youyi's River of Sword Intent.
Furthermore, he vaguely sensed that Liang Yi, through some unknown actions, had amassed a terrifyingly powerful foundation and fully integrated it into his Domain, achieving the "One Domain One World" Realm.
Though Tian Anyu was also at the "One Domain One World" Realm, the vast majority of his Domain, once unfolded, was comprised of the Corrosion of Darkness Law, nothing like Liang Yi's, which could form its own heavens and earth.
The scope of foundation necessary to claim one's world had Tian Anyu's head nearly explode in frustration, as he had no idea how Liang Yi had accumulated such a foundation.
"Damn it!!!"
Tian Anyu coughed up a mouthful of blood, feeling extreme reluctance, but the once proud and complacent man was now at his weakest point, unable to even recall when he had last been this helpless.
Seeing Tian Anyu in such a state, Liang Yi finally breathed a sigh of relief, silently considering his fortune.
The previous struggle, even if it had continued for ten days and a half month, would likely not have yielded a victor, so when Liang Yi found himself under control of Tian Anyu's Corrosion of Darkness Law, he chose not to sever it and instead subconsciously sought to leverage the strike to find an opportunity!
Tian Anyu was scheming against him, but wasn't he also plotting against Tian Anyu?
Using his master's Karma Sword Intent, he linked the two in the most fundamental causal relationship, then fully bore all the attacks from Tian Anyu, even inflicting a few fierce wounds on himself to exacerbate the injuries.
In the end, he used Gu Chengan's Reverse Sword Intent, reliant on the Law of Karma, to completely reverse the injuries of both parties, returning all the damage Tian Anyu inflicted upon him in an instant!
Although the process was incredibly perilous, one misstep could lead to utter ruin, fortunately, it was a success for Liang Yi!
