Chapter 3678: Saving the Demon Exalt (Three)
Soon after Xiang Bai said that, the spiritual Qi that had only just returned to the Immortal Sect of Colossal Elephants immediately vanished at a terrifying rate. In a short while, the entire sect had been drained of spiritual Qi.
Shortly afterwards, a tremendous and mighty pressure suddenly appeared with enough force to suppress mountains and rivers. It startled all of the experts in the Immortal Sect of Colossal Elephants.
Before this pressure, let alone Immortal Emperors, even the expressions of some Immortal Exalts would change.
That was the pressure of a sovereign god artifact!
A silvery-white disc appeared from the space above the Immortal Sect of Colossal Elephants. In the beginning, it was only a faint silhouette, but the silhouette of the disc gradually consolidated as spiritual Qi was channelled into it.
It was the Disc of Sun and Moon. The Sacred Beast clan had bestowed it upon the Immortal Sect of Colossal Elephants in the past to serve as their sect treasure.
The Disc of Sun and Moon was incomplete and damaged, but it could still erupt with unbelievable might in the hands of the Immortal Sect of Colossal Elephants and completely overwhelm mid Immortal Exalts.
The appearance of the Disc of Sun and Moon immediately brought relief to the upper echelon of the Immortal Sect of Colossal Elephants. Their uneasiness seemed to finally vanish.
At this moment, the three Skyfire Volcanoes of the Immortal Sect of Colossal Elephants also operated at full strength, gathering a tremendous amount of spiritual Qi for the Energy-gathering Divine Mountains in the floating divine hall to operate at full capacity.
All of the gathered spiritual Qi was provided to the Disc of Sun and Moon.
The pressure from the Disc of Sun and Moon grew stronger and stronger.
“Attack! Don’t stop! Keep the Immortal Devouring Orchid busy and buy time for the Disc of Sun and Moon!” Xiang Bai bellowed out again. The two formations assembled by numerous experts blasted another two powerful columns of energy into the ground that struck the Immortal Devouring Orchid.
With a great boom, some of the main stalks that the Immortal Devouring Orchid had just regrown were severed again.
The Immortal Devouring Orchid was now an Immortal Exalt, and its battle prowess was far beyond any regular First Heavenly Layer Immortal Exalt. Even so, the two formations assembled by the Immortal Sect of Colossal Elephants still managed to destroy its main stalks with ease.
That only demonstrated just how powerful the two formations were.
Not only was it powerful offensively, but it could also stop the attacks of Immortal Exalts with its defences and reflect the damage, causing the attacking Immortal Exalt to be injured by their own power in the end.
They possessed both offensive and defensive capabilities. These two formations assembled by the people of the Immortal Sect of Colossal Elephants could be described as perfect.
Perhaps the only flaw was the low attack frequency.
After witnessing the power of these formations, the Immortal Devouring Orchid completely gave up on attacking the formations. It began to devote all of its strength to the few remaining golden chains.
However, with the group of experts from the Immortal Sect of Colossal Elephants keeping it busy, the amount of strength that the Immortal Devouring Orchid could unleash was affected to a certain degree. As a result, it now required several attacks before it could destroy a golden chain.
From time to time, all of its main stalks, which it did not possess many of in the first place, would be destroyed by the experts of the Immortal Sect of Colossal Elephants. This forced the Immortal Devouring Orchid to regenerate the main stalks before launching more attacks.
As a result, the Immortal Devouring Orchid destroyed the three remaining metal chains extremely slowly.
If it had not inherited the undying ability and had been any other First Heavenly Layer Immortal Exalt, it would have perished a long time ago.
By now, the sovereign god artifact of the Immortal Sect of Colossal Elephants had already materialised. The pressure it radiated with was even more frightening and shocking. It was amassing energy, about to demonstrate the partial might of a sovereign god artifact.
Ding! There was a crisp sound from underground. Only one golden chain remained.
Suddenly, sword intent erupted from behind the Immortal Sect of Colossal Elephants. The bright light turned the entire sky a dazzling silvery-white.
The sect master of the Immortal Sect of Colossal Elephants had been leading several hundred thousand disciples beneath Immortal Monarch to channel their energy into a bottle the entire time.
At this moment, the bottle’s energy had finally reached full capacity. A streak of sword Qi suddenly shot out as if it could sever space and cross through time, slicing towards the Immortal Devouring Orchid with unbelievable speed.
The strand of sword Qi contained the profound truths of the ways. Once locked onto by the sword Qi, it would be impossible to avoid it.
Spurt!
Immediately, the sword Qi from the jade bottle severed countless tendrils from the Immortal Devouring Orchid and directly vanished into its main body.
The Immortal Devouring Orchid began to tremble violently as if it had just sustained a heavy wound. Countless cracks spread across its colossal body. Blinding light shone from each crack.
Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang!
Shortly afterwards, large chunks of the Immortal Devouring Orchid’s body exploded. The sword Qi’s might was far too startling. It furiously destroyed the Immortal Devouring Orchid’s body.
The Immortal Devouring Orchird’s presence began to plummet rapidly.
But at this moment, its undying ability played a tremendous role. Its collapsing body rapidly regrew. Through the constant destruction and regeneration, it began an endurance battle against the sword Qi in its body.
In the end, the sword Qi ran out of power. It was unable to outlast the Immortal Devouring Orchid’s undying ability.
“All disciples, ingest pills to recover your energy. Continue preparing the second attack.” The sect master of the Immortal Sect of Colossal Elephants ordered loudly from the edge of the battlefield. Several hundred thousand disciples above Golden Immortal began to ingest various kinds of recovery pills to continue channelling their energy into the jade bottle.
During the short moment when the Immortal Devouring Orchid faced off against the sword Qi, the two killing formations assembled by over twenty Immortal Emperors and over two hundred Immortal Monarchs launched more attacks. Another two columns of blinding light struck the ground, directly striking the Immortal Devouring Orchid with enough force to make regular Immortal Exalts pale.
This time, the Immortal Devouring Orchid did not use its main stalks to block. It devoted all of its main stalks to attacking the final chain. At the same time, all of its petals unfurled as if a gaping mouth had split open, swallowing the two attacks from the killing formations.
The Immortal Devouring Orchid’s behaviour immediately stunned all of the experts from the Immortal Sect of Colossal Elephants. Every attack they launched with the formation could heavily-injure Immortal Exalts that had recently broken through.
The Immortal Devouring Orchid was actually bold enough to devour two attacks of such power?
All of them stared straight at the Immortal Devouring Orchid under the ground.
Sure enough, the Immortal Devouring Orchid was heavily injured. Its body shook violently as countless cracks spread across the surface of its body. Even the world within its body seemed to tremor violently.
However, it disregarded its injuries and amassed all of its strength in its main stalks, attacking the final golden chain again and again.
At its peak condition, it could destroy a golden chain with a single full-powered strike, but now, its strength had clearly diminished. As a result, the golden chain that had already sustained several of its attacks still did not shatter.
However, the Immortal Devouring Orchid’s attacks occurred at an extremely great frequency. The main stalks launched consecutive attacks.
In the end, after enduring several dozen attacks from the Immortal Devouring Orchid, the final chain shattered with a crisp sound.
In the next moment, surging demon Qi rushed into the air, immediately filling the entire Immortal Sect of Colossal Elephants.
One half of the Thousand Soul Demon Exalt’s soul immediately returned to his body, merging back together.
“Immortal Sect of Colossal Elephants—” A voice that seemed to originate from the depths of hell rang out from the Thousand Soul Demon Exalt’s mouth. Within the surging demon Qi, the Thousand Soul Demon Exalt suddenly stood up and the pressure of a Fourth Heavenly Layer Immortal Exalt erupted.
However, the presence clearly seemed more like a front, unable to hide the feebleness within.
The Thousand Soul Demon Exalt had been imprisoned for far too long. Even a good chunk of his soul had been removed by the Immortal Sect of Colossal Elephants. He only possessed thirty percent of his peak strength at most.
And that was after Jian Chen had fed many mid grade God Tier heavenly resources to the Thousand Soul Demon Exalt.
In the next moment, the Thousand Soul Demon Exalt who was clad in demon Qi suddenly appeared in the air. He was extremely large. Even when he was seated, he towered ten metres tall, so now that he stood up, he was actually a hundred metres tall like a miniature giant.
The Thousand Soul Demon Exalt’s eyes were sometimes chaotic and sometimes clear, but the killing intent he radiated only grew stronger. Suddenly, he swung his hand, and his palm that was even larger than a palm leaf shot towards one of the formations with alarming force.
