Chapter 225: Half Ancient Sword Suppresses the World
These four vague shadows appeared in an incredibly abrupt and eerie manner, yet no one noticed their presence.
Now they are all looking up at the top of the towering stone pillar, experiencing its terrifying aura.
The dim figure standing on the north side of the beach whispered, "Do we need to intervene? This youngling named Elder Tao seems to have become overly self-assured…"
In the face of the Myriad Reflections of Dazzling Light, whose imposing presence seemed to oppress the universe, these four shadows were not afraid.
But they couldn't help but become solemn and serious.
In fact, their appearance signifies that things have become very critical…
However, on the cliff to the south, the shadow standing beside the Extreme Hell Black Water looked up for a while and spoke.
"Instead of worrying about Elder Tao, it is better to worry about that sword…"
Above the high sky, a dark blue ancient sword hangs in the midst of the vigorous wind, devoid of light and vigour, appearing mundane and unremarkable.
However, it was precisely this sword that captured the full attention of the shadow in the south.
"That sword, is the most lethal!" said the shadow on the cliff to the south.
At the very moment when it spoke these words, the dark green ancient sword, which was suspended in the high sky and was small and ordinary, completely forgotten by people, trembled in its sword body.
A crisp sword cry resounded through the heavens and earth, instantly shattering all the dark clouds within a radius of hundreds of miles.
"Not good!"
The sudden feeling of horror in it's heart made the shadow on the cliff to the south anxiously cry out, "Quickly form up!"
The dim and intangible light swept over the entire Extreme Hell Island in an instant, forming an invisible film that enveloped the entire island and the cultivators on it.
Only a few cultivators within the divine palace are aware of this.
Yu Hailing was startled and looked incredulously at the Wolf God of Hanyu mountain.
Li Po furrowed his brow, instinctively touching himself as if trying to grasp something…There were about ten people in the divine palace who reacted in a similar manner.
However, many more people are unaware of this.
Because the Hanyu mountain's Wolf God, who had been smiling all along, has finally spoken.
In the face of Elder Tao's aggressive provocation and warning, and the ancient legendary secret technique, the Wolf God of Hanyu Mountain heaved a sigh and respectfully gestured towards Elder Tao in front of him.
He said, "No."
The tone was slow and flat, devoid of any emotional hues, and simply greeted with a plain hello.
Such a peculiar response left people immensely startled, not knowing why the Wolf God had responded in such a manner.
But in the next moment, they knew…
In the divine palace, Lu Heng dressed in white, with his hands behind his back. With a move of his spiritual consciousness, the Thunder Dao Foundation that had been concealed all this time was now fully revealed due to its connection with the Heavenly Thunder Sword.
Boom!
The brilliant electric light seemed to flicker around Lu Heng's entire body.
At the moment when the thunderbolt was revealed, several tragic screams and groans immediately resounded within the divine palace, and even some individuals vomited blood and flew backwards.
All the remaining people, even if they were not injured, were extremely terrified.
At the moment when the Wolf God dispelled the hiding technique, the terrifying light of the Heavenly Thunder instantly illuminated their magic eyes.
Under the observation of the magic eyes, within the divine palace, in front of the peach blossom formation, it appeared as if a pure white sun had risen! The fierce and piercing lightning of the heavenly thunder, like the most deadly poison needles, deeply pierced into the eyes and hearts of every cultivator.
Even Li Po, who had a similar experience at Hanyu Mountain, cannot help but squint and feel a slight tremor in his heart now.
The Heavenly Thunder Tao Foundation of the Wolf God, no matter how many times it is seen, always leaves one's heart trembling with fear…
But the appearance of the Heavenly Thunder Tao Foundation is just the beginning.
For within that void, the dark cyan ancient sword which had long been ignored and forgotten by everyone, once again resounded with a crisp clang of its blade.
The azure sword light pierces through the sky and spans across the vast expanse of the atmosphere.
The sky which was originally subdued by the aura of Elder Tao, was easily pierced by this green light.
Numerous peach blossoms wildly erupted, surging upwards against the heavens.
The agitated Elder Tao's expression turned furious as he yelled at Lu Heng in front of him.
"This is you seeking death! It is not that I am cruel…Myriad Reflections of Dazzling Light! Annihilate the soul and corrode the demon!"
Amidst the endless swirling of peach blossoms, the elderly man with hair as white as snowy feathers lifted his peach wood cane high into the air.
Those numerous illusions that overlapped him endlessly, have now all merged with his true body in a moment.
This is his strongest killer move, which he now uses without hesitation in response to provocation.
He vowed to crush this old wolf in front of him, as a sacrificial offering. Let the world know that although Elder Tao has not made an appearance in three thousand years, he is still invincible!
Even the ancient demons must bow before him!
At the moment the peach wood staff struck, time and space almost froze.
At the moment of striking, the splendid and magnificent Myriad Reflections of Dazzling Light appeared so unpretentious.
A mere wooden staff, with no divine radiance or majesty.
But impossible to resist or fight against.
The old man's barely perceptible gesture of tapping his peachwood cane gave everyone present the same eerie feeling - death.
In the face of this delicately pointed peach wood cane, no one in the world can survive!
This is the sole thought in the hearts of the crowd witnessing the ceremony at the divine palace.
However, amidst the void, there were dazzling flashes of lightning and a crimson radiance permeating the sky.
After the piercing blue light that tore through the sky dissipated, the Heavenly Thunder Sword, which had always been sheathed since its creation, unsheathed silently.
The Heavenly Thunder Sand serves as the main material, and with the massive investment of rare materials at any cost by two Li Tribe priests, the Heavenly Thunder Sword was crafted after a long period of time and energy. Now, it is being unsheathed for the first time.
The antique sword's blade glimmers invisibly.
At the moment the sword was drawn from its scabbard, an undeniable and inescapable sense of impending doom shook the hearts and minds of the people.
Within the divine palace, on the Extreme Hell Island, stood the four shadows… At this moment, all the creatures on the Extreme Hell Island raised their heads and looked fearfully and perplexedly at the dim ancient sword hovering in the void.
Even the dull and ancient sword, in the high sky, appears as tiny as a strand of hair.
However, when everyone on Extreme Hell Island lifted their heads, they all saw the sword with absolute clarity!
And the dazzling red light, at this moment, lit up and illuminated this world.
The Heavenly Thunder Sword was formed in Hanyu Mountain, and the power of the divine punishment, which had appeared only once before, was fully manifested in front of everyone now.
Almost uncontrollably, countless cultivators and mermaids collapsed and knelt down at this moment.
It is not fear or terror, merely the most instinctive reaction engraved deep in the soul of a living being when faced with the sheer destructive, devastating and merciless force of punishment.
Kneel, trial, death…
"I refuse to accept it!"
The sudden roar shattered the tranquility of the moment.
People looked up in astonishment and saw a furious figure with long white hair and a youthful face rising into the sky from within the divine palace and into the heavens above.
Endless peach blossoms twirled around him, with an imposing momentum capable of overwhelming the world… which used to awe and terrify people in the past, now seem so insignificant and powerless.
However, the silhouette still screams and roars, shouting loudly.
"I am Tao…"
Boom!
A piercing thunderous roar drowned out the old man's enraged shouting.
The resplendent red light descended softly and indifferently.
It fell upon the Heavenly Pillar.
"Puff!"
Amidst the painful groans, the four dim shadows standing in a formation on the Extreme Hell Island spurted blood and flew backwards, struggling to retreat underground.
The formation, barely touching the end of the red light, shattered instantly.
And the old man with white hair facing the red light disappeared completely in this world.
No trace or vestige was left behind.
The only thing that remains in people's minds and hearts is the vanished red light.
And the ancient sword in a slow sheathing motion, its dark blue color glimmering.
And the almost eternal shivering fear that cannot be forgotten…
Punishment from the heavens!
At the moment when this red light appeared in the world, no one could ignore it.
Within the divine palace, a deathly silence has descended.
Many people fell to their knees out of fear and instinct as soon as the sword was drawn from its sheath.
Even the people who are still standing now have a perplexed expression and can hardly believe what their eyes are seeing.
Even the old ascetic cultivator Jiu Mie, who was already mentally prepared and knew that this sword was extraordinary, looked at Lu Heng in front of him with a doubtful gaze, eyes widened.
He suspected that he had been played with.
Does this guy still need others to help with studying his heavenly thunder?
