Chapter 881: Chapter 880: Shattered Space Blade Ancestor_1
"How could he be so strong?"
The Wuyuan elder was stupefied, feeling a chill in his heart as if it had been doused with icy water.
The energy emitted by the man in blue clothing was Vigorous Air, evidently still within the realm of a Void Origin Martial Emperor, yet even with the aid of the Wuyuan Array, his energy surpassed the scope of Vigorous Air. Why was he still no match for the man in blue?
There has never been such a Void Origin Martial Emperor in this world!
In the sky, a saber light suddenly slashed toward the man in blue, the saber light without limit, without boundary, lacking even saber qi, but filled with boundless slaughter and ferocity. Its aura so intense, it forced even the Divine Fire Order, which had drawn the spiritual energy of Rainbow State, to momentarily dodge its sharpness.
The man in blue lifted his hand and struck out.
Boom...
The void reacted like water flowing backwards, surging upward, stirring up thousands of waves. And upon those waves, people saw ever-changing scenes that seemed to reflect both past and future.
"It’s fake, all fake!"
The Ghost Emperor was so terrified he fled far away.
Versed in divination, acclaimed as one who could partially penetrate the secrets of heaven, how could he fail to see that the battle between the two had already affected the stability of this space, even bringing forth fragments of time and space?
Could the legend of the Sky Origin realm be true?
"You cannot stop me."
The man in blue declared.
"I am the Shattered Air Saber Ancestor. Give me some face and leave, how about it? It shouldn’t be difficult with your ability."
The voice shook the heavens, carrying an awe-inspiring authority that covered the world.
"Hahaha, it’s the Ancestor, Ancestor you are indeed not dead!"
The Wuyuan elder suddenly burst into laughter, trembling with excessive excitement, his eyes filled with blurry tears.
Long ago, from a realm beyond, ten leaders were dispatched to this world, each possessing peerless prowess that stunned both ancient and modern times. The Shattered Air Saber Ancestor was one among them.
However, after the first apocalyptic battle, these ten leaders were either dead, grievously injured, or had vanished, causing the conquest plans of the realm beyond to come to an abrupt halt.
Over the years, the people from beyond hid in various places, some earnestly cultivating, others searching for the missing leaders and their descendants.
The Wuyuan elder’s lineage was somewhat fortunate. From the first generation Wuyuan elder, they came to know the truth about the Shattered Air Saber Ancestor’s sealing, hence they used Wuyuan Palace to plan over thirteen generations, nurturing six Divine Fire Orders with the fresh blood of endless heroes.
When the time came, sacrificing the six Divine Fire Orders and their bearers would break the seal of Mirage City and smoothly bring back the Shattered Air Saber Ancestor, restoring the supreme glory of their lineage!
The Wuyuan elder originally thought that the Four Directions City Lord would ruin his plans, but he never expected that the Shattered Air Saber Ancestor would break the seal ahead of time. What was there to fear then?
"What if I refuse to leave?"
The man in blue asked.
"My saber has slain countless exceptional prodigies."
The voice carried a naked murderous intent, sending chills throughout everyone in Wuyuan Palace.
"Well, I would like to test the edge of your saber."
No sooner had those words fallen than the man in blue lifted his left hand and struck out several palms in succession, the boundless palm force tearing a massive hole in the sky. Through that hole, a peerless saber light descended from the heavens, bursting with immeasurable radiance.
With the first strike, the palm force and the saber light were like a huge rock, raising a tumultuous tide in the six-colored sky, affecting the whole of Rainbow State.
On the second strike, cracks appeared in the six-colored sky. It should be noted that the sky at that moment had gathered all the spiritual energy of Rainbow State, making it several times harder than normal void, yet it was still being destroyed by the two of them.
The third strike shattered the six-colored sky into fragments, pushing it to the verge of collapse.
"You haven’t broken the seal at all; you’ve merely made use of the Array System here. In the end, you won’t be able to maintain this."
The man in the blue mask said.
A single stone caused a thousand ripples; everyone, including the Ghost Emperor, the Floating Blood Palace Master, and the Illusion Orchid Tower owner, was terrified to the core.
The strength displayed by the Shattered Space Blade Ancestor was enough to crush all beings, and yet, this was still his sealed state. One could only imagine how powerful the Shattered Space Blade Ancestor must have been in the past; it was unimaginable!
"So you dare defy me?"
Within a chaotic space filled with strange and varied lights, a blurry figure sat crossed-legged, bound all over by a terrifying power of mutation, but before it, there was a shining gate that looked exactly like the Nine-Colored Fire Pool under the influence of the Green Divine Fire Command.
Having suffered a wound to his origin in a battle long ago, the Shattered Space Blade Ancestor had no choice but to enter the Mirage City to evade the hunt organized by East Victory. Fortunately, before entering, he had laid out the Wuyuan Palace in advance so that one day he could reemerge in the world to settle his blood feud!
Now that success was within reach, he would not allow anyone to interfere.
"Slash!"
The figure casually made a slashing motion. Within Rainbow State, the light of the saber seemed to split heaven and earth, yin and yang. Under this slash, all things were like fish on the chopping board, helpless to do anything but await their fate.
A stream of finger energy cut through the air in advance, colliding directly with the saber’s edge. In the clash, sparks flew like magma from a hundred thousand volcanos, blackening the void with holes everywhere.
Two supreme experts fought across the Array System, a battle that shook the heavens and the earth.
"Come to me!"
Seizing this opportunity, the old man from Wuyuan Palace crazily urged his power. Inside the Nine-Colored Fire Pool, flames burned furiously, turning into vaporized essences that surged into the Green Divine Fire Command.
At the same time, everyone in the four great arenas, except for Shi Xiaole, felt their strength being drained away. Even their vital blood was being cut off by an invisible hand, flowing towards the depths of Wuyuan Palace.
"How can this be?"
"Who is it, who’s doing this?"
It wasn’t just the Terrestrial Immortals who were panicked; even the Martial Emperors of the Void Origin Realm were in a frenzy. They did all they could to stop what was happening, but all efforts were in vain. Moreover, the draining of their strength and vital blood was speeding up.
"Is it the Divine Fire Command?"
Shi Xiaole recalled the ominous premonition he’d had when he first arrived in Rainbow State, wanting to join Four Directions City. Now, that feeling was back, and more than tenfold stronger.
"Shi Xuanzhong, are you really there? What exactly is my relationship with you?"
Shi Xiaole stared blankly at the distant battle; with his strength, he couldn’t even get close, much less intervene, but he wasn’t panicked. At the thought, the Green Divine Fire Command in the Nine-Colored Fire Pool suddenly broke free from the old man’s control and flew to Shi Xiaole.
"Open your mind, or don’t blame me for being rude."
The old man from Wuyuan Palace tore through the Array System, his eyes fixed on Shi Xiaole from afar.
"What, it’s him!"
The Ghost Emperor saw Shi Xiaole too, and his expression was exceedingly ugly. Could someone tell him how this kid, with his strength, managed to win the duel?
The owner of Illusion Orchid Tower was also shocked beyond measure, needing several looks to confirm that her eyes were not deceiving her.
"Rude to me? If you really wanted to, you would have acted long ago. Let me guess, until the sixth Divine Fire Command has absorbed enough power, you dare not do anything to me because the Divine Fire Command is in tune with my mind. If I die, the Divine Fire Command would be destroyed too. If my assumption is correct, you must not be able to fully control Wuyuan Palace yet, so it obviously wasn’t created by you."
With each word Shi Xiaole said, the old man from Wuyuan Palace’s expression darkened further.
"You dare!"
The old man from Wuyuan Palace suddenly roared.
At that moment, the Green Divine Fire Command, spurred by Shi Xiaole, returned the absorbed power and vital blood to everyone present.
