Chapter 663: The Demon Sword’s Arrival in the Area of the Gods, The Power to Exterminate All Worlds
A war broke out in the Chaos. The terrifying energy ripple and light of mana exploded in the galaxy like meteorites crashing against one another. The light they gave off was even brighter than the stars. A dazzling sword light slashed across Guzhan’s chest, leaving a deep gash.
Xing Ya looked at Xiao Chengfeng with a stern face and his heart went heavy. He was really impressed with the poem. ‘Three thousand visitors are full of flowers, fourteen states froze over, with one stroke of the sword… I, as the master of the Palm Star Pavilion, should be the one to shout out the poem. There’s certainly a lot of talented fighters in the Chaos. I never expected to come across my number one sword rival so soon!’
However, Guzhan seemed to be unaffected by the wound which was covered by a black gas. Technically speaking, he was already dead and the only reason he was able to move was that he was controlled by the Extermination Demon Sword which contained a powerfully destructive and murderous aura.
“Die!” roared Guzhan like a wild beast. He raised his sword and brought it down on the group. The sword screamed with the billions of resentful spirits. Instantly, the area was turned into a dead zone as the resentful spirits rushed toward the group and erupted into a powerful explosion that surrounded them. The resentful spirits bit and clawed at them non-stop.
“This isn’t good. The Extermination Demon Sword has spanned the eternal years and killed countless living beings. The condensation of resentful spirits is totally out of this world!”
“The Extermination Sword can even kill fighters from the Heavenly Realm. At least twenty of them died under this sword. Their resentful spirits are too powerful!”
“The sword light’s full of destructive power and combined with the countless resentful spirits, it isn’t something we can defend against.”
The group was scared out of their wits. They felt their scalps go numb when faced with the endless resentful spirits. Helpless did not even begin to describe their situation right now.
“Hey, you from the Palm Star Pavilion. Aren’t you supposed to be all-powerful and all that? What do you suggest we do now?” asked Xiao Chengfeng hurriedly.
“Yes, it’s true that this Wisdom Elite weapon’s powerful, but my Palm Star Pavilion has been here since the beginning of time. I can easily put it under a seal,” said Xing Ya in a cold and arrogant tone.
“Wow! What are you waiting for? Do you need our help?” asked Yang Jing.
“I forgot to say that I can easily put it under a seal provided it has not found a carrier yet. Now… Even I can’t do anything about it,” said Xing Ya serenely.
Xiao Chengfeng exploded with rage. “You should’ve said that in the first place? Will it kill you if you don’t act cool for once?”
“I already told you that ever since I got here. You’re the one who didn’t listen to me,” said Xing Ya.
“Is there anything else we can do?” asked the old man from the White Cloud Sect.
“This is a catastrophe for the Chaos and not many people will survive this. We should call for reinforcements and use numbers to suppress it,” said Xing Ya in a resigned tone.
Suddenly, Guzhan shouted and his murderous aura became even thicker as time passed. He swung the Extermination Demon Sword once. Just once, and immediately, a terrifying black sword light ripped the sky apart, splitting it into two. It was truly a second to none display of power. That one swing was imbued with enough power of the Wisdom Elite to wipe out all worlds as they knew it.
The all-encompassing sword light engulfed everyone in it. Instantly, they felt their blood surging in their body and it was hard to breathe. Without wasting any more time, they activated their most powerful defense technique.
Xing Ya raised his hand and his white robe became drenched in white light. The white light expanded from his back, burst out like a star in the sky, and shot toward the black sword light. “World Promise, Universe Destroying Palm!” Xiao Chengfeng’s sword hummed and a dazzling sword light erupted which instantly transformed into a giant sword phantom rushing to the sky. The others activated their technique and summoned their defense Ultimate Treasures, too.
However, along with a thunderous crashing sound, a boundless energy wave swept over them like a tsunami and sent them flying to the air like a kite with a broken string. All the defense Ultimate Treasures and manifestations were instantly swallowed by the Extermination Demon Sword, rendering them black and useless.
Blood gushed out from Xing Ya’s mouth. “I’ll certainly die if I continue with this fight. Does anyone know any experts? If not, I’ll be running for my dear life now,” he said, in a state of shock. The only reason the Palm Star Pavilion could span the eternal years, even during times of catastrophe, was because he knew when to run and hide as soon as things took a turn for the worse. He lived by the mantra ‘where there is life, there is hope’.
Yang Jing wiped the blood from his lips and in a hoarse voice said, “What will happen if we all run away now?”
“He’ll continue with his massacre until all the worlds in the Chaos are wiped out one after another.” Xing Ya was shaking his head as he said this. “What’s worse is this is only the beginning. The arrival of this sword means its master will be coming soon. There will be no stopping this catastrophe then. We should just lie down and wait for death to claim us.”
Yang Jing gritted his teeth and said, “Let’s go to the Area of the Gods and rally all the people in the Heavenly Palace to suppress him! If the Heavenly Palace can’t suppress him then surely there are other powerhouses in the Area of the Gods who can seal this sword up!”
“Area of the Gods, exterminate the Area of the Gods!” shouted Guzhan as he rushed toward them after catching wind of their plans. The Extermination Demon Sword was born to exterminate everything and the sentiment imbued by its master was to cause an upheaval in the Area of the Gods before his arrival.
The shadows of the sword lights and the fighters shot around in the Chaos, terrifying the living beings near them as if their aura alone were going to turn the heavens and earth upside down. It was not long ago that Blackie’s group fought against Yanmo. The people had not even recovered from that but now, they had to deal with Yang Jing’s group fighting against the Extermination Demon Sword. The recent events of the Chaos were truly cause for concern.
“What happened? Why is there one catastrophe after another?”
“Is this the will of heaven? Have we angered the gods?”
“I have a premonition that our peaceful era has come to an end.”
Even the more powerful fighters were shaken to their very core. “The entire Chaos is going to the dogs. I should find a safe place to hide.”
Yang Jing and the rest of the group were backed into a corner. No one dared to fight Guzhan head-on. Even so, they could not escape the backlash of the sword. Each of their Origins of Life was injured and the wounds on their bodies were healing slower than ever. They were truly in a pitiful plight. However, they had their speed going for them and soon arrived in the Area of the Gods.
“Quick, call for reinforcements!” cried Xiao Chengfeng.
Yang Jing quickly pressed on his third eye and immediately, a red light beam shot out into the air, staining the entire sky red. He had unlocked a new ability for his third eye—sending a signal.
Every one of the people’s faces in the Heavenly Palace blanched when they saw the red skyglow.
“This isn’t good. The signal’s sent by Yang Jing! It’s an emergency!”
“Something big must’ve happened!”
“I can feel a powerful energy ripple coming from there.”
“It’s an aura of extermination. All the people in the Area of the Gods will be burned to ashes should it come here.”
The Jade Emperor’s face was grim. “All the Heavenly Realm fighters, gather there!” He, Cultivator Junjun, and Goddess Nuwa immediately made a move. The entire Area of the Gods was already thrown into a state of chaos.
Although Yang Jing and the rest of the group did not lure Guzhan inside the Area of the Gods, the people in the Area of the Gods could still feel the force of the battle from the outskirts. Apart from that, the movements made by the Heavenly Realm fighters were not to be scoffed at either. Countless manifestations of fire, lightning, and others surged through the sky and collided with the black gas. How could anyone not panic when faced with this sight? After seeing this, the powerhouses did not waste time in joining in the fight.
Guzhan, with the Extermination Demon Sword still in his hand, stood mid-air with the black gas swirling around him. He ignored Yang Jing and the rest and focused his attention on the Area of the Gods. His extermination aura became even wilder to the point of mania.
“Area of the Gods, exterminate the Area of the Gods!” he muttered as he swung the Extermination Demon Sword in that direction.
“Stop him! He plans to stick the sword into the Area of the Gods to swallow everything up just like the previous world!” shouted Xing Ya.
“Stop!” shouted Xiao Chengfeng and Yang Jing as they chased after him while ignoring the pain wracking through their body.
“Mountains and River Boundaries Locked!” Immediately, scenes of mountains, rivers, shrines, the sun, and the moon appeared in the sky which then created a barrier around Guzhan, effectively preventing him from taking another step forward.
“Looks like we’ve made it in time,” said the Empress with a smile. Behind her stood the Jade Emperor and others who were all looking at Guzhan with grim expressions on their faces.
“Is that… Guzhan? Didn’t he die in the ancient battleground?” asked Cultivator Junjun with surprise.
“He’s not Guzhan but the Extermination Demon Sword. The sword belongs to an Eldritch Wisdom Elite and it was sent here to exterminate all the worlds here. We must stop that from happening,” said Yang Jing in a heavy tone.
At this, everyone’s heart began to beat wildly against their chests and their eyes filled with fear as they looked upon the Demon Extermination Sword.
“How arrogant of him. Is this his way of challenging us?”
“The murderous aura’s so thick. How many souls did it have to kill to be so thick? It’s truly incomprehensible.”
“How dare a measly Wisdom Elite weapon come to the Area of the Gods to cause trouble?”
Guzhan raised his sword and brought it down on the barrier. Although the Ultimate Treasure, The Land of Mountains and Rivers Painting, was imbued with Li Nianfan’s power which made it level up drastically, it was still no match for the Extermination Demon Sword. The barrier was immediately broken by the sword and the painting could have been rendered useless if it was not for its leveled-up abilities.
Cultivator Junjun gasped. “He’s very strong, indeed. Let’s work together to suppress him!” He raised his hand and a few treasures floated to the front. There was a golden-purple sword, a black stick, and a golden bowl. Those three were the Ultimate Heavenly Spiritual Treasure that were obtained after the fight between Blackie and another Wisdom Elite in the Area of the Gods.
The Golden-Purple Ultimate Light Sword was an Ultimate Slaughter Treasure. Its sharp aura contained enough power to split open the sky and not only that, its speed could pierce through anything. The Sky Stirring Stick could either break the sky into a million pieces with its earth-shattering power or hold up the sky. The Sky Devouring Bowl could suck everything under the sky and imprison them inside of its body. Three different types of Ultimate Treasures, three different abilities, all rushed toward Guzhan at the same time.
Goddess Nuwa joined the fight, too. She held up her Lotus Lantern and immediately a light as white as snow flowed out from within and condensed into a divine lotus which then shot toward Guzhan. The Lotus Lantern, after going through many merit refinements, had grown into a Heavenly Merits Spiritual Treasure from its previous status of a Heavenly Spiritual Treasure. It was able to attack and defend at the same time, making it an incomparable piece of treasure.
The Jade Emperor and the others gave out one attack after another and the powerful force erupted like a volcano, staining the sky in a rainbow hue of colors. If this was any other ordinary world, it would have already exploded under the impact. The Extermination Sword seemed to have detected the danger as it started to vibrate a little.
“Ahhhhh!” roared Guzhan with anger. Black gas began to stream out of all his seven orifices and the black gas became even thicker when his skin started to split apart. The black gas erupted and turned into rolling black clouds, blanketing the sky. The billions of resentful spirits shouted maniacally and their intertwined bodies made them seem unstoppable as if they alone could swallow up the thousands of worlds in the Chaos.
The powerhouses in the Areas of the Gods went numb with shock when they saw this.
“What terrifying power. How is this even possible?”
“Where did all these resentful spirits come from? There seems to be an infinite number of them!”
“The Areas of Gods is doomed to be a dead zone once they’re all unleashed.”
The Luotian Dynasty, the Hundred Flower Sect, the Empath Sect had arrived to help the Heavenly Palace people.
“Kill! Kill! Kill!” Guzhan, or to be more accurate, the Extermination Demon Sword, had gone mad with the intention to kill. It was hellbent on engulfing the entire Area of the Gods in the black cloud and turning it into a dead zone. The billions of resentful spirits were not only from the seventh dimension but also from the other dimensions it desecrated. Thus, it made the sword even more powerful. There were not only spirits of mortals but Saints, Chaos Daluo Golden Immortals, and even of the Heavenly Realm!
Guzhan’s body began to expand with the black cloud until it stopped at a width of 50 feet. The resentful spirits never stopped their wails and with a raise of his hand, a sword light shot toward the group.
Meanwhile, back at the four-part architecture, Li Nianfan was organizing a spring cleaning. “The four-part architecture has become bigger ever since the change in Heaven and Earth, making it such a hassle to clean. Maybe this is what it feels like to have a first-world problem,” muttered Li Nianfan to himself.
Then, to Nanan he said, “Nanan, don’t forget to sweep the corners and under the table. Make sure you pay more attention when you clean the chicken coop. Wait a minute, you’re not even holding the broom right…
“Dragin, the mop isn’t for playing. Are you drawing or are you mopping? Don’t mop the areas that haven’t been swept yet.
“Miss Shi, that’s a toilet brush, not a glass scrubber…”
