Book 07 Chapter 094: Kong Xuan vs. Sword Deity Six Paths

Sword Deity Six Paths?

The expressions of Kong Xuan and the Unborn Man changed dramatically when they saw the sword-wielding man.

Just how strong was the Sword Deity Six Paths? Kong Xuan had faced the Six Paths Veritable Lord’s water deity body before. It had taken two Sect Master Heavenly Accesses, Sect Master Supreme Ascendant, Gu Hai’s mortal soul monopolizing his physical body, and four Old Mister Guan Qis to deal with the water deity body. However, this was the metal deity body, which was stronger than the water deity body.

A replica? Even if he was a replica, he was extremely powerful.

“Sword Deity Six Paths, leave the Unborn Man to me. Just focus on Kong Xuan, alright? Hehe! Kong Xuan? The Great Light Sovereign Deity? I have heard of your fame before. Hahahahaha!” Lifespan Chunshen guffawed.

“Alright!” the Sword Deity Six Paths answered.

Whoosh!

The Sword Deity Six Paths arrived near Kong Xuan with a flash and swung down his holy sword.

“Five-colored divine light!” Kong Xuan roared and flung out his hand, tossing out three hundred beams of five-colored divine light, not daring to hold back.

A strip-shaped black hole tore open in space, streaking towards the Sword Deity Six Paths.

“Humph!” the Sword Deity Six Paths snorted coldly.

The Sword Deity Six Paths’s holy sword nearly chopped the world in half as it collided with the three hundred beams of five-colored divine light.

Boom!

The Sword Deity Six Paths broke all techniques with one sword strike.

A loud report resounded as three hundred five-colored divine lights exploded. The sword strike had annihilated them.

The black hole did not stop the sword, which instantly arrived before Kong Xuan’s face.

Boom!

Blargh!

Kong Xuan turned into a beam of light shooting into the distance in the black hole, spewing a mouthful of blood as he flew back.

Gripping his sword, the Sword Deity Six Paths coldly watched Kong Xuan crash into the ground below.

Cough! Cough! Cough! Kong Xuan climbed out of the huge crater, coughing blood.

Many sword wounds split most of Kong Xuan’s skin, all bleeding heavily.

“Hahahaha! Kong Xuan, to think you can’t even last one sword strike against the Sword Deity Six Paths! Hahaha!” Lifespan Chunshen guffawed.

“Cough! Cough! Cough! Hahaha! It is indeed different. The Sword Deity Six Paths? The replica of the Six Paths Veritable Lord’s metal deity body? A replica is just a replica! It is still lacking!” Kong Xuan sneered as he coughed blood.

“Still lacking?” Lifespan Chunshen said.

“The Six Paths Veritable Lord’s metal body was in the tenth-layer Upper Heavenly Realm, the consummation of the Upper Heavenly Palace Realm. This replica is not at consummation. It is still a little short. Otherwise, that attack would not have just injured me but killed me!” Kong Xuan said coldly.

“Even if he is not at the consummation of the Upper Heavenly Palace, you are not a match for him. He might be a little short of consummation, but you will still die!” Lifespan Chunshen said coldly.

“No, he is a little short. This gap is as wide as the sky and earth. A consummate Upper Heavenly Palace Realm cultivator would have no openings. Being just a little short means weaknesses. I will find them. Humph! Again!” Kong Xuan said coldly.

Kong Xuan suddenly let out a prolonged cry. He did not run; instead, he charged at the Sword Deity Six Paths.

“You overestimate yourself!” the Sword Deity Six Paths snorted coldly.

Shing!

A piercing sword light illuminated the world.

Boom!

The sword strike slammed Kong Xuan to the ground. Although the attack did not kill him, the Sword Deity Six Paths was too powerful; Kong Xuan could only barely struggle.

The second sword strike failed to kill Kong Xuan, so the Sword Deity Six Paths immediately rushed over.

Boom!

Kong Xuan suddenly burst out of the ground, using his hands as claws as he instantly arrived before the Sword Deity Six Paths.

“Die!” Kong Xuan shot out a manifested claw with a ferocious expression.

The Sword Deity Six Paths glared and swung his holy sword.

Shing!

Boom!

The sword light immediately knocked Kong Xuan into the distance, and he crashed through many mountains before stopping. Although bloodied, he did not give up, continuing to glare ferociously at the Sword Deity Six Paths despite his severe injuries.

However, the Sword Deity Six Paths stroked his face.

A small wound on the Sword Deity Six Paths’s face seeped blood. Although it was very shallow, a superficial wound, it meant Kong Xuan had injured him.

At the sight of the blood on his fingertip, a frigid murderous intent flashed in the Sword Deity Six Paths’s eyes. “You have already angered me.”

With a cold snort, the Sword Deity Six Paths seemed to travel through space and time at an incredible speed. He instantly arrived before Kong Xuan and swung his sword again.

“Five-colored divine light!”

Boom!

The attack sent Kong Xuan flying again, but he survived, albeit with increasingly severe injuries.

The Unborn Man wanted to help, but Lifespan Chunshen blocked him.

“Hah! Unborn Man, you won’t be able to help with your meager cultivation. You should just stay,” Lifespan Chunshen said coldly.

“Lifespan Chunshen, are you trying to stop me?” The Unborn Man waved his hand, making plenty of black energy appear out of nowhere.

“In cultivating lifespan, life is life and death is death. Hah! You merged life and death, truly seeing death. Don’t think that dabbling in both life and death makes you more powerful. On the contrary, you are distracted, leading to both paths achieving nothing.” Lifespan Chunshen extended his hand and waved, bringing out ten jade boxes.

“Both paths leading to nothing? Haha! I recall the past generations of Lifespan Chunshen studied how to integrate life. What’s wrong? Do you look down on dabbling in two Dao?” The black energy the Unborn Man manifested grew, forming a large whirlpool.

“I’m just interested in seeing how you are courting death. Humph! You are not good with lifespan ritual arrays!” Lifespan Chunshen said coldly.

As Lifespan Chunshen spoke, the ten jade boxes before him opened.

Eeee! Eeee! Eeee! Eeee!

Ten corpse worms emerged from the jade boxes, all of them ferociously eyeing the Unborn Man.

“Corpse worms?” the Unborn Man said in a grave tone.

“Indeed. I am now following the Corpse Worm Heavenly Demon. He provides me with an endless supply of corpse worms. The one at Three Mountains City was just an insignificant Burial Mound Lifespan Ritual Array. This time, you shall try out ten layers of it. Rise!” Lifespan Chunshen shouted.

“Rise!” the Unborn Man also shouted.

Boom!

Boundless black energy encased the two’s location.

Rumble…!

Loud sounds came from the black energy as the two lifespan cultivators started a ferocious battle within.

------

One hour later:

Kong Xuan had already turned into a bloody figure. On the other hand, the Sword Deity Six Paths’s face now sported two more raw wounds for a total of three—three insignificant scrapes.

However, Kong Xuan was weakening. The Sword Deity Six Paths had stripped off much of his flesh, exposing the bones of his arms and legs.

“I’m not resigned to this. My peacock race has not risen back up yet! I have not revitalized my peacock race yet! How can I die here?! No!” Kong Xuan cried, unable to accept this.

Although he had injured the Sword Deity Six Paths, he was still far from achieving his aim, especially against a ferocious person like the Six Paths Veritable Lord.

“You have nowhere to run. Die!” The Sword Deity Six Paths ferociously swung his sword again.

Boom!

This puissant sword strike seemed to surpass everything before, displaying a destructive might. It manifested millions of sword qi to seal off all paths of escape, forcing Kong Xuan to face the lethal sword strike.

“No! Five-colored divine light, kill!” Kong Xuan roared, unresigned.

Whoosh!

Nearly four hundred five-colored divine lights rushed towards that powerful sword strike. Kong Xuan did his best, almost exhausting his energy.

“What use is the five-colored divine light? No matter how many there are, you can never block my holy sword! Die!” the Sword Deity Six Paths said, his eyes cold.

Boom!

The holy sword clashed with the five-colored divine light.

It was as the Sword Deity Six Paths said, so what if there were more?

The sword shattered all the divine lights in its way, like cutting cloth. They were not even worth a strike; explosions rang out everywhere.

Kong Xuan’s last stand was in vain.

“No! I cannot lose! I cannot lose! The peacock race cannot get eradicated!” Kong Xuan roared in despair.

At this moment, two streams of bloody tears flowed out of Kong Xuan’s eyes.

Kong Xuan understood that after the remaining peacock race lost his protection, it would be destroyed. He had promised the old peacock prime from eight hundred thousand years ago to revitalize the peacock race. He had yet to fulfill that promise. He bore a great burden and could not die here.

Despite Kong Xuan’s despair, the holy sword showed no mercy. It instantly tore through all the five-colored divine lights, promising to split him in half.

Coo!

Just then, a loud peacock cry rang out behind Kong Xuan.

Whoosh!

Before the holy sword arrived, an enormous mouth appeared and engulfed Kong Xuan. At the same time, a beam of six-colored divine light headed for the holy sword.

Boom!

The six-colored divine light exploded and shattered, but the holy sword bounced back for the first time.

“Huh?” The Sword Deity Six Paths’s expression turned cold.

The Avian King Resentful Spirit had arrived and swallowed Kong Xuan in one mouthful.

“A resentful spirit? You ate the person I want to kill. Spit him out!” the Sword Deity Six Paths commanded coldly.

Coo! The Avian King Resentful Spirit cried loudly while glaring.

“You have a grudge against him, so you ate him? Haha! I don’t care about your grudge. I promised the peak master to either capture this Kong Xuan or bring back his corpse. If you don’t spit him out, I’ll break your stomach open and kill him after digging him out. Humph!” The Sword Deity Six Paths swung his sword again with a cold expression.

Coo! The Avian King Resentful Spirit uttered a ferocious cry as it flung a six-colored divine light at the sword.

Boom!

The Sword Deity Six Paths’s opponent changed to the Avian King Resentful Spirit.

After the Avian King swallowed Kong Xuan, he entered a daze as energy digested him, aggravating his injuries.

Kong Xuan broke three fingers on his right hand to prevent himself from losing consciousness.

Crack! Crack! Crack!

“Argh!” Kong Xuan screamed in pain, now much more alert.

“This is…a peacock’s stomach? This is the Avian King Resentful Spirit’s stomach? It is trying to kill me?” Kong Xuan suddenly understood.

However, he was currently severely injured and could not save himself. The digestive energy in the stomach was like a powerful acid eating away at him. He would probably melt soon.

Kong Xuan suddenly felt sorrowful.

“Senior from eight hundred thousand years ago, I promised you to revitalize the peacock race, but I failed. Kong Xuan is unresigned! Kong Xuan does not accept this! I can die, but the peacock race cannot get eradicated! The peacock race cannot be destroyed! I do not accept this! If I die, what is the peacock race to do? The peacock race cannot get exterminated!” Kong Xuan cried in sorrow and grief.

His unwillingness and resentment poured out as he cried, and blood flowed out of his eyes.

Buzz!

The Avian King Resentful Spirit shuddered, especially where Kong Xuan was. Its stomach seemed to spasm, and the corrosive energy suddenly weakened significantly. Then a deep voice rang out.

“I do not accept this! If I die, what is the peacock race to do? The peacock race cannot get exterminated!”

A resentful voice said the same thing as Kong Xuan, with the same despair and unwillingness. It seemed to come from ancient times, from the depths of the Avian King’s soul.

Kong Xuan’s resentment resonated with the Avian King’s resentment, their sorrow and despair blending.
