Chapter 980: One Out Of The Two Dies
Now that the Nine Capital Lifeless Blade Formation was destroyed, no one had any ability to protect Liujue anymore.
However, the first to have any battle outcome wasnât Zong Shou but Yexuan.
Just as that slaying sword light swept out in an unrestrained manner, Yexuanâs Big Domain Shaking Sword sword light which split into two suddenly dispersed, disappearing totally.
Just as the two people in the distance were astonished, the sword light rang out and gathered into a line. It was like a white dragon as it flashed across.
âBig Domain Dragon Strike!â
Instantly, blood splattered all over the void and scattered everywhere.
Guanzhongâs body was shattered with one sword and his body exploded flesh and blood everywhere.
Yexuanâs Big Domain Sword Technique could go up against three Saint Realm Cultivators. Now that Liujue was gone, he could even save half of his powers.
Gathering the sword into one, naturally he would be able to kill someone from the Saint Realm.
Yesheng who was standing to the side had a drastic change of expression. He didnât want to fight anymore and retreated in a frenzy.
Out of the three of them, he was the only one who seemed perfectly fine, but he was completely terrified. He didnât have any thoughts about capturing Zong Shou. He just wanted to flee and get as far away from Zong Shou as possible.
Guanzhong died, one of the Nine Capital Lifeless Blade Formations was destroyed, and people from the Taoist Faction escaped.
Their defeat today was already decided, but no matter what they tried, they wouldnât be able to turn the tides.
Since that was the case, then the only thing he could do was flee. He was the Nine Capital Celestial Dynastyâs Saint Realm helper and each year he would get a salary from Liu Muchen to do things for the Celestial Dynasty.
However, there was no need for him to die along with it!
Guanzhong retreated, Liujue was more and more alone and helpless. He stood in front of Zong Shou, his arms were broken, and he looking extremely pitiful and tragic.
Such a person like him didnât really fear death, his eyes were only filled with rage, hatred, and an unwillingness to die.
He was unwilling to die, unwilling to stop in his Dao journeyâŠ
Zong Shou had no intention of showing mercy to him. He looked across with a cold expression, and the Nameless Sword waved once more, using the energy of the 184 Source Ocean Demon Slaying Warriors to drive the Slaying Sword Intent!
âImperial Slaying!â
With a slash, Liujueâs body was cut into two without any resistance.
Just nicely at that moment, Aoyi also attacked. Just as Ji Ming and Hantao were distracted by the changes at this side, a 100-foot ice blade appeared in her hands. The freezing power solidified about 20 breaths worth of the spiritual river.
The pair of ice blades slashed across in a light and floating manner. Ice sealed everything within 1,000 miles. Ji Ming was terrified, going all out to try to dodge and escape, but his body still slowed down.
Overcome by the cold, his entire body went numb. The ice blade slashed across like a hot knife through butter, easily pushing the bow away, and then entering his chest.
There were no scenes of blood and flesh splattering. Aoyiâs methods were much more gentle than Zong Shou and Yexuanâs.
The blade entered his stomach, causing Ji Mingâs body to be frozen in layers of ice. Like an ice coffin, he floated in the void.
The people around were all terrified and spread about.
Liujue died, Guanzhong died, Ji Ming died, Bai Daozi died. At this point, four Saint Realm Venerables fell, one after the other.
The remaining few Saint Realm Venerables didnât have any heart to fight. They knew that at this moment, even if they went all out, they wouldnât be able to hurt Zong Shou at all.
Aoyi laughed coldly, taking out two hairpins from her hair and tossing it over. It instantly turned into streaks of light that chased over.
Hantao wasnât able to flee in time and he could only teleport around to try to dodge these hairpins.
The ice blade chased over just as his body stopped for a moment. Another dozen rounds went by and he was badly injured. The flesh and blood in his body was totally frozen. Although he didnât die, he was also frozen in an ice coffin.
Xuxun was in an even worse situation, he was also chased by the hairpin, and he was really in a pickle.
His cultivation wasnât as strong as Ruotaoâs, so he was unable to dodge. He went all out to block the ice blade, but the jade hairpin directly stabbed into his head.
The ice power spread out. He was unable to block it and instantly his soul was wiped out.
Saint Realm Venerables had Indestructible Bodies and the ability to revive through a drop of blood. However, as this Extreme Freezing Power spread out, it wasnât of any use.
Aoyi didnât attack the other people, allowing them to flee into the distance.
One was that she didnât have enough strength, so she could only let it happen. Second was that she knew what Zong Shou wanted.
To Great Gan, they only wanted to heavily damage Nine Capital Celestial Dynasty such that they couldnât fight back.
If it was destroyed here, not only would it not benefit them, but it would benefit other people.
It was best that they had some strength to defend against the attacks and invasions of other people.
The longer they tangled with others, the better it would be for Great Gan. They would be able to gain a stable footing in Yuanlian World without much worries about any other thing at all.
This was why Aoyi didnât worry much about the other Saint Realm Venerables from Nine Capital Celestial Dynasty.
She killed Xuxun, Ji Ming, and Hantao as they were from Xuanling Guild and Jijue Celestial Dynasty.
After killing them, it would badly injure those two powers. It was also a warning to them that Great Gan could totally wipe out the claws and fangs that Xuanling Guild and Jijue Celestial Dynasty stretched out in the future.
Zong Shou also didnât bother with the people that escaped.
After killing Liujue, he controlled the white sword light to tear open the void and stretch into the distance.
He pierced through the World River and broke layer after layer of barriers. His sword intent pointed to the frenziedly fleeing flying boat.
It was an Intermediate Grade Celestial Treasure and now under the use of two Saint Realm Venerables, it was so much quicker that it was beyond description. It was like a streak of light flashing, one flash could cover 10,000 miles.
However, it wasnât faster than Zong Shouâs sword. It started late but managed to catch up, in just a tenth of the flick of a finger, it chased up to the flying boat.
It passed through dozens of layers of space barriers but didnât show any signs of weakening at all, instead, it became much stronger!
Within the flying boat was a willow leaf-shaped blade light that slashed over.
The moment it came into contact with the sword light, it backed off.
Following closely behind was a golden seal that became 100,000 feet wide and pressed down from above.
The white sword light didnât bother at all, and the sword intent became even sharper, welcoming the strike without any fear.
With a piercing sound, the golden seal was actually broken through and the flying boat was hit.
The strong energy wave caused the Intermediate Celestial Treasure Grade Flying Boat to instantly shatter from the back.
The cracks spread out and collapsed. There were many Celestial Realm Cultivators who died from this giant powerful strike. The remaining God Realms had ashen white faces, totally devoid of blood. Their auras were weakened and really chaotic, and it was obvious that they suffered heavy injuries.
âThe momentum from the sword energy was able to kill one person!â
Just as the boat broke, such a thought flashed in Chengxing and Rongbiâs minds.
They exchanged glances with one another and helplessness and determination appeared in their eyes.
If they didnât go all out against him, one out of two of them would die!
When that sword light charged over, it didnât point toward any one of them.
It continued to snake and spin about, stretching toward that petite body in the crowd.
Chengxing and Aobiâs expressions changed slightly.
âQingming!â
âZong Shou, you really are vicious!â
Only thinking about it slightly and they knew what Zong Shou was planning: Zong Shou killing Qingming was not only to vent the hate in his chestâŠ
It was targeting Kunming! If his only descendant died, their Senior Masterâs End Realm tribulation would face problems.
He was also betting that the two of them would save her! So, they couldnât dodge at all.
Within the World River, Zong Shou broke into a cold laugh.
Vicious? Was this allowing the officials to light fires and not civilians from lighting lamps?
Since this woman did all that, then he naturally was going to return the favor.
Chengxing didnât hesitate to throw out a lotus leaf-shaped Celestial Treasure to protect Qingming. He waved his hands and 3,000 silver threads tried to lock and bind to the sword light.
However, right as he shifted his body to block, Rongbi suddenly said, âJunior Brother, I have spent so many years peaking into the secrets of the heavens and donât have much lifespan. Let me take this!â
While speaking, Rongbiâs body had already blocked in front of Qingming whose face was already ashen white.
Dozens of jade letters flew out from his sleeves and formed, Gan, Dui, Li, Zhen, Kui, Kan, Gen, Kun, the words of the eight trigrams.
It only lacked the middle, the Taiji Yin and Yang Diagram.
Waves of vast powers surged out from within.
That white sword light started to dim and weaken a little when it struck the flying boat.
Moments later, it started to rise back up and regain its peak period.
It pierced out, first directly slashing through the lotus leaf and then through the entangling 3,000 silver threads.
It was stopped for just a moment by the eight trigram jade letters.
In just a thirtieth of the time it took for one to flick a finger, Zong Shou scoffed coldly.
That sword light shot in and shook away those jade letters. It then sped in and through Rongbiâs brain.
Rongbi laughed silently.
He knew that today either he or Chengxing had to die.
Unfortunately, he didnât predict this before they came.
An instant later, his body started to turn into dust. That Slaying Sword Intent totally destroyed all of his life force.
Chengxing roared out in rage, like a wild beast who was on the verge of death, filled with despair.
However, this wasnât the time to feel sad. That willow leaf blade gathered once more and swept toward the remaining sword intent that hadnât yet faded.
The two clashed and the sword light was instantly wiped out.
Chengxing didnât feel any joy, instead, he was shocked, and he felt weird about how it was so simple.
Although the sword was weakened by 70%, it still had the power to fight against the Saint Realm.
Why was it crushed in just a hit. Did Zong Shou give up?
Moments later, he came to his senses, filled with shock and rage, and his eyes were about to pop out of their sockets.
Sky Fox Illusionary Technique! Everything he was seeing was fake.
The moment he felt sad about Rongbiâs death, it silently invaded his heart.
With such a thought, everything he saw and felt was collapsing.
When he looked forward, that strong white sword light brushed past him.
Coincidentally, it totally drowned Qingming!
It pierced through sword by sword! In an instant, her body was riddled with 1,000 holes. In just an instant, she was devoid of life.
In the distance within the World River, Zong Shouâs brow rose up, and a feeling of pity appeared in his eyes.
âSecond soul? What a wasteâŠâ
However, it made sense, how could the beloved daughter of an End Realm not have any life-saving methods?
He laughed coldly. However, his Imperial Demon Slaying Formationâs sword intent wasnât so simple either.
