Chapter 3718: Supreme Sword Qi
At this moment, countless senses of souls gathered over the Sword Sect of Violet Heavens. Many experts on the Reverent Observance Heaven paid close attention to the situation there.
The ancestors of the Immortal Sect of Colossal Elephants all noticed these senses of the soul, but they did not do anything about them. Instead, they took great delight in their presence.
After all, they would be personally destroying the ancestral grounds of the Sword Sect of Violet Heavens before all the experts of the Reverent Observance Heaven. They would personally erase the Sword Sect of Violet Heavens’ mark of glory.
“Sigh, the Sword Sect of Violet Heavens is completely done for this time…”
“It has been over three million years, yet the Sword Sect of Violet Heavens never managed to rise up again…”
“What a pity. The pride of our Reverent Observance Heaven will cease to exist with this…”
“After all, they have been oppressed for over three million years. It hasn’t been easy for the Sword Sect of Violet Heavens to last until now.”
……
…
Countless experts sighed across the Reverent Observance Heaven. Some organisations that had various feuds with disciples of the Sword Sect of Violet Heavens cheered.
However, even more organisations felt pity for the destruction of the Sword Sect of Violet Heavens.
In the city lord’s estate of the Observance Heaven City, Jiang Pingtian who sat on the city lord’s throne also looked towards the Sword Sect of Violet Heavens. His expression was mixed.
Senses of souls wove together from the fifty generals’ estates in the Observance Heaven City. Many Thousand Immortal Generals discussed with one another.
However, their topic of conversation was not the Sword Sect of Violet Heavens. Instead, they talked about Immortal Emperor Chang Yang who had claimed the position of Thousand Immortal General and caused a great stir in the Observance Heaven City.
“No wonder Immortal Emperor Chang Yang was so haughty in the Observance Heaven City, refusing to even respect the Immortal Feather sect. Sure enough, our guess was correct. Immortal Emperor Chang Yang really did have a significant background. His claim that he was an independent cultivator was just a reason he came up with to hide his origins.”
“Only with a tremendous background that does not fear the Immortal Feather sect can he possess so many treasures. It’s just a pity that we won’t ever be able to obtain the wondrous treasure in Immoral Emperor Chang Yang’s possession that can absorb Stainless Qi.”
It was not just Thousand Immortal Generals. Even many Hundred Immortal Commandants discussed Immortal Emperor Chang Yang, but most people focused on the jade bottle that could absorb Stainless Qi.
In a commander’s estate, one of the five commanders, Ye Beifeng, stood in the centre of the hall. Before him was Ye Qingyun, who had just emerged from secluded cultivation, having stabilised his cultivation as Immortal Exalt.
“Sure enough, Chang Yang’s identity is anything but simple. Fortunately, senior Fire Virtue had warned me before, which stopped us from offending this person too much. Otherwise, we would have created great trouble for our Ye family.” Ye Beifeng exhaled. When he recalled the situation back then, he still felt lingering fear.
“Fortunately, Chang Yang shouldered the responsibility of the bottle. Now, everyone in the Observance Heaven City believes that the jade bottle is in Chang Yang’s possession. This was my agreement with Chang Yang, but he still helped our Ye family with a huge problem. The jade bottle has shattered already after all, so it’s not like I can produce a second one. Those who did not see the jade bottle shatter themselves would never believe this,” Ye Qingyun said with relief.
However, as soon as Ye Qingyun said that, his expression changed slightly as he suddenly raised his head. His gaze seemed to pierce through the commander’s estate, gathering on the distance.
At this moment, it was not just Ye Qingyun. Even Ye Beifeng and all the experts in the Observance Heaven City, or even the Reverent Observance Heaven, looked towards the same direction in a bewildered manner.
The space where countless experts looked at suddenly split open, turning into a pitch-black crack three thousand metres in length.
Startling sword Qi radiated from within the crack. The sword Qi was so powerful that it made all of the experts on the Observance Heaven City change in expression.
Even the Seventh Heavenly Layer Immortal Exalt Jiang Pingtian and the Master of Fire Virtue became stern.
The surging sword intent in the spatial crack grew stronger and stronger, condensing into a streak of blinding light in the end. It seemed to cross an extremely vast distance, directly emerging from the space there and instantly descending upon the Reverent Observance Heaven.
However, soon after the sword Qi arrived on the Reverent Observance Heaven, it erupted with blinding light and tore through the air gloriously with an overwhelming presence. Its target was the Sword Sect of Violet Heavens.
Immediately, the regions of space cracked one after another. Wherever the sword Qi passed by, none of the space was left intact.
From the overwhelming sword Qi, all of the Immortal Exalts on the Reverent Observance Heaven could clearly feel a furious and brutal presence.
The sword Qi moved extremely quickly, crossing billions of kilometres with each moment. It instantly arrived at the Sword Sect of Violet Heavens, slashing directly towards the Space-splitting Venerable with startling killing intent.
At this moment, the six other ancestors of the Immortal Sect of Colossal Elephants all shivered inside and stumbled backwards frantically.
The Space-splitting Venerable was stern. With a howl, his surging strength erupted like a flood, immediately collapsing the space around him. He held the tiny bell and channelled his energy into it.
The tiny bell immediately erupted with resplendent light, radiating with an earth-shaking pressure. Afterwards, it directly clashed against the sword Qi in the Space-splitting Venerable’s hand in a simple and crude fashion.
When the sword Qi and the Space-splitting Venerable’s tiny bell collided, there were no startling explosions, nor were there any terrifying storms of energy.
The space where they made contact collapsed, turning into a miniature black hole. The sounds inside vanished as light was bent. Everything of substance was devoured.
The Space-splitting Venerable was knocked backwards uncontrollably as the tiny bell in his hand dimmed. Traces of blood splattered on the bell.
The Space-splitting Venerable clearly did not have the upper hand in this clash. A gash had even appeared on his hand that held the tiny bell from the attack.
But shortly afterwards, the sword Qi lit up once again. It was far too powerful, possessing the power of the laws, seemingly capable of shaking the ways. Even the black hole that devoured everything could not swallow its glow.
The sword Qi thrust towards the Space-splitting Venerable once again. It was actually even stronger than the previous attack.
The Space-splitting Venerable’s face became ugly. As his energy surged out furiously, the tiny bell in his hand erupted brightly once again, turning into rings of light around the Space-splitting Venerable.
The Space-splitting Venerable had gone from offence to defence. A total of ninety-nine rings of light enveloped him. Each ring of light was extremely powerful. Powered by his strength as a peak Seventh Heavenly Layer Immortal Exalt, he could hold his ground momentarily even against Eighth Heavenly Layer experts.
When the sword Qi reached the rings of light around the Space-splitting Venerable, they immediately collapsed one by one at a rapid rate.
Shortly, over sixty rings had been destroyed. The remaining thirty-odd rings continued to diminish one by one.
Watching his barrier grow thinner and thinner, the Space-splitting Venerable’s face contorted.
In the end, when only the last nine rings remained, the sword Qi rang out of power. The Space-splitting Venerable had managed to block the attack with his god artifact.
However, before the Space-splitting Venerable could catch his breath, a third strand of sword Qi followed closely.
Immediately, the last nine rings of light around the Space-splitting Venerable were torn apart like paper as the attack plunged right in. It struck the tiny bell first before being deflected and slashing viciously across the Space-splitting Venerable’s chest.
Spurt! Blood sprayed from the Space-splitting Venerable’s mouth. His body was pierced by the sword Qi. The residual might emerged from behind him, vanishing into the ground beneath him.
In just three attacks, the peak Seventh Heavenly Layer Immortal Exalt Space-splitting Venerable had been heavily injured. Not only did that shock all the experts on the Reverent Observance Heaven, but even the six other ancestors of the Immortal Sect of Colossal Elephants were left quite frightened.
After all, the Space-splitting Venerable was a supreme figure who could put up a fight against regular Eighth Heavenly Layer Immortal Exalts. Among his realm of cultivation, he struggled to find any equal.
Yet right now, he had been heavily injured in merely three attacks.
