Chapter 1238 The Sword That Pierces the Heart

Greeny exerted its strength; the pets currently fighting had the immediate feeling that something was wrong, but it was too late. They had been isolated in the space-time created by the snake; the only way to break free was to kill it.

However… The sturdiness of Greeny’s body was on the top of the Ascendant State. Even a Celestial would find it difficult to kill the pet with one strike.

The creature’s scales had been through countless tribulations; each scale contained a unique law. The pets were at the moment attacking Greeny in a frenzy, but the most they could do was to inflict bruises.

The scene baffled the observers from the neutral star zones.

None of them expected that Su Ping’s pet would have such brutal strength; it was definitely an ultimate Ascendant pet!

However, that type of snake was unknown and unprecedented for the onlookers.

“It’s said that Shen Huang’s youngest disciple was revealed to be as strong as a Heavenly Lord, back when the Heavenly Devil Alliance declared war on the Celestial Court-even though he’s just a Star Lord. He fought one of the enemy formations on his own. Maybe it wasn’t an exaggeration.”

“Indeed. It’s remarkable to see him standing here, unaffected.”

“No wonder Master Ye placed a huge bounty on his head all over the universe. He probably grabbed a lot of the treasures stashed by that master.”

Many Ascendants from the neutral space zones were deep in speculation. Some were tempted by the prospect, but decided to hold back once they remembered their own masters.

Even if Su Ping was ambushed and killed, the goods may never be found. It was very likely that he had already handed over the treasures to his master in exchange for protection.

All the Heavenly Lords depended on their star zones. Participating in the war would reveal the stance of those star zones and the enormous families they belonged to; their families could be destroyed if they lost.

Exactly at that moment-Su Ping heard a voice behind him. “You’re Su Ping, right?”

Su Ping turned around and found two young strangers with handsome and graceful looks. Their armor was made in a unique style, suggesting that they belonged to the Black Desolation Star Zone, one of the neutral forces.

After recalling his senior brother’s advice, Su Ping nodded and asked, “Yes. And you are?”

Both warriors felt rather unhappy, given that Su Ping wasn’t the least respectful. They were proper Heavenly Lords; the latter was treating them like peers.

“At your first senior brother’s request, we’re here to protect you. You’ll be safe until the end of the battle for the Black Desolation Star Zone’s sake,” said the young man on the right side with a smile. His chiseled face made him look aggressive; someone not to be refused.

“Is that so? Thank you.” Su Ping nodded.

“Let’s go somewhere else,” said the young man.

Su Ping followed them to another time and space. The young man on the left side smiled and said, “Young Brother Su, you…”

Su Ping turned his head to look at the man.

The next second-a violent force burst out from his right side, like an exploding star.

An eye seemed to appear on the back of Su Ping’s head. The moment the young man attacked, he moved to the other young man’s back and pushed him forward. There was a boom, and the fierce attack tore him apart and pierced him!

The young man on the right side was unable to stop the attack in time, even though he was a Heavenly Lord.

“You…”

He looked at his partner, who was dying with whatever was left of his body; the young man on the right side looked at Su Ping with shock and fury; his casual smile was replaced by fury and viciousness.

He had certainly realized that their scheme had been exposed

Still, he didn’t know who had exposed it. He even thought of the Heavenly Devil Alliance, who had been suspecting that they had purposefully leaked the secret, and he would be involved.

“What are you doing?” Su Ping looked at him in surprise. “Shut up!”

The young man had no time to rescue his partner; he attacked brutally again. According to the current intelligence report, Su Ping was capable of fighting a Heavenly Lord; that was why he chose to ambush instead of attacking head-on.

Su Ping wasn’t confident of slaying the hostile man, even though the latter was a Heavenly Lord.

The unexpected accident stunned many of the people that came from the neutral star zones, as none thought that the Black Desolation Star Zone—which was also neutral—would choose to attack Su Ping.

But the next moment-an even more shocking scene happened.

Su Ping didn’t hold back when the young man attacked again, instantly gathering his eighteen Dao Patterns into a sword and swinging it with the enhancement of seven small worlds.

After a boom, the young man’s Ascendant world exploded as soon as it appeared. The sword auras were swept forth, blowing up the young man’s body.

The dispersing flesh was also minced and destroyed by the remaining sword auras.

A Heavenly Lord had been killed, just like

that.

The unbelievable scene made a lot of people widen their eyes; they suspected that Su Ping had only used some sort of illusion.

Bang!

Su Ping casually squeezed the soul of the man who was unfortunately blown up by his partner, and absorbed it.

The two men from the Black Desolation Star Zone died in the blink of an eye, and one of them was a Heavenly Lord. Their fellow star zone people changed their expressions, not expecting their plan to fail so quickly. Boring. Was he really a Heavenly Lord? Your standard is too low. Su Ping focused his strength; the Heavenly Lord who had attacked him was barely on par with his senior brother You Long

In any case, he was still too weak compared to the tough Ascendants he had encountered back in the cultivation sites; he wasn’t worth mentioning in terms of cleverness and use of last resorts.

Once you got to the bottom of it, such an environment was really suitable for survival.

Not just the Heavenly Lords, even the normal Ascendants could be local dominators and enjoy infinite extravagances. Nobody could grow without adversity, and those Heavenly Lords lacked the determination to persist beyond despair. There wasn’t much to them; they were stronger than the norm, but only relatively strong when compared to those found in cultivation sites.

They were far weaker when measured against the best.

“Did my eyes deceive me? Seven small worlds?”

“I sure heard he cultivated multiple small worlds. He grasped seven of them?” “That was true? I just examined my soul, and there’s no sign of tampering. I’m not hallucinating?”

zones were

All the people from the other star zones were shocked; they looked at the young man as if he were a ghost. What kind of combat ability was that? Is he truly a Star Lord?

“That person…”

Liu Xia—who was fighting someone elsenoticed that scene and narrowed her eyes. She had been asked to guide Su Ping during the commandery contest.

Su Ping had merely been a talented junior in his eyes back then. He had a shocking potential, but he wouldn’t make waves in the grand turmoil of the universe; at least 10,000 years would be needed for him to glow.

The great universal war would have ended by then.

Either Su Ping would be destroyed along with the Celestial Court, or his alliance would win and he would have the chance to grow even stronger. But going back to reality, how long had it been? The kid I taught now has a terrifying strength. I’ve never seen anything like this!

While everybody was astounded by Su Ping’s performance-a dangerous aura suddenly came from the black hole and woke everybody

up.

The black hole suddenly narrowed and was about to close.

Su Ping looked into the black hole as it narrowed. Although his eyes could see through the Dao Patterns, he couldn’t see through the darkness; however, he sensed that something was rushing out.

“Oh no!”

He became alert and all his hairs stood on end. He quickly called out to Greeny.

Whoosh!

Greeny quickly threw away the pets it had entrapped to rush toward Su Ping.

The narrowing hole suddenly expanded, and a violent force was swept out, which was much more powerful than what Su Ping had to endure on his way over.

There was also a destructive aura mixed in that power.

Bang!

Greeny quickly wrapped Su Ping and coiled the rest of its body.

The others were also frightened, and they quickly set up military formations. The power had been abrupt, however, and the formations set by many Ascendants were dispelled. Some of those cultivators were instantly obliterated.

Only a few of them survived thanks to special treasures they carried.

Liu Xia, Ji Xueqing and the others fighting noticed the phenomenon. Even though they were in other points in time and space-and some were even in the eighth space—they still noticed something. The strong feeling of crisis prompted them to defend themselves instead of continuing their fights.

Even so, most of the people fighting were injured; two Heavenly Lords who failed to react in time were heavily wounded.

The violent force lasted for half a minute, then it gradually disappeared. Su Ping noticed Greeny’s uneasiness through their bond.

Su Ping quickly examined Greeny’s body afterwards, only to discover that the areas facing the black hole had been damaged. Other than that, it was perfectly fine.

In terms of defensive abilities, it would probably be unmatched until the Dark Dragon Hound reached the Ascendant State.

The power seemed to have sword auras…

Su Ping saw that Greeny’s scales were healing. However, there were tiny sword marks on some scales that couldn’t be erased; they had been imprinted.

This gave him a shock, as he could tell that the sword marks carried the aura of Dao Glyphs.

It wasn’t the Dao Patterns he used, but the real Dao Glyphs used in the core of the universe!

“What happened?”

Song Yuan appeared in mid air, while Hai Mei reappeared next to the Blood Charm Star Zone’s team. It was difficult for either of them to gain the upper hand in such a short amount of time; after all, both were top Heavenly Lords. Even a Celestial would have to pay some price to finish them off quickly.

“The nest just moved,” said Lian Qi, not entirely relieved.

He was badly wounded. There were a huge number of finger-long sword marks on his skin, which were causing him constant, cutting pain. Ji Xueqing reunited with the team after getting rid of her pursuers. She asked in a hurry, “Was it caused by our battle?”

“I don’t think so.” Su Ping shook his head. w∪xiaworld. site He never saw anyone approach the dark hole.

Someone said all of a sudden, “Look, there’s a new crack over there.”

Everybody looked in that direction, only to discover that the wall of flesh had a new crack, several hundred meters away from the dark hole. Instead of darkness, there was a trace of blood.

Su Ping saw that the Dao Patterns on the wall had been broken, seemingly due to the energy blast.

Han Ye suddenly sniffed and said, “Do you smell anything?”

Aside from the blood stench, there was also a very special smell in the air, which was refreshing and exciting.

Su Ping instantly realized that it was the aura of chaos.

The aura of chaos was seeping out from the bloody crack!

“Let’s go!”

Outside—the people of the neutral star zones had realized something. Someone was already moving to explore the bloody crack.

The others also reacted, roaring and charging toward the divide.

The aura of chaos was flowing out; their eyes were bloodshot, thinking they had found where the legacy was.

Hai Mei had no time to fight Song Yuan and the others anymore, as the most important thing was to get the legacy. She might even rise beyond the Celestial State if she was lucky!

Song Yuan gritted his teeth and said after some hesitation, “Let’s go too.”

Nobody knew what they would find, but he would regret it for the rest of his life if he missed out because of not taking action.

No one objected; everybody rushed forward.

They soon reached the new crack. They were attacked by other Ascendants, and they fought back with swords and fists. They rushed without stopping.

The crack widened and turned into a channel as they got closer and moved in.

The power of all sorts of laws and Dao Patterns was bombarding them once inside the channel. It was hard to tell who was friend or foe anymore; they simply attacked anyone who wasn’t from their star zone.

Everybody passed through the channel and saw an object lying in the sealed space, which was like a black mountain.

The most striking and unforgettable thing was that a sharp and enormous sword was on the top of the mountain, piercing it from top to bottom!

Is that… a heart?

Su Ping looked at the black mountain and noticed the smell of rotting blood. He was dazed by the scene.

He could see that the heart was already rotten on the surface, but there were countless Dao Patterns deeper inside. Many immortal Dao Glyphs were constantly glittering in the center of the interweaving Dao Patterns!

The Dao Glyphs were interconnected, staying deep inside the black heart like stars.

To Su Ping’s astonishment, the sword seemed to be incomplete. There was an unparalleled will on the edge of the sword; even though it was a lifeless object, that will alone was suppressing the heart like a king. While everybody was working to overcome their surprise, the black heart gushed blue blood, and then slowly compressed.
