Chapter 690: Chapter 689: Sky Collapses and Earth Sinks
Clang!
The sound of collision kept arising, fearsome battle ripples spreading all around. A high-ranking Saint Realm practitioner from Skyfiend Sect was too late to react and was instantly turned into a cloud of blood mist, his soul not even getting the chance to flee.
Right after, two more Saints of Skyfiend Sect were shattered.
On the other hand, the Demon God Temple was unscathed thanks to the protection of its array formation.
Just then, the Quasi-Emperor of Skyfiend Sect shuddered, thrown off and vomiting blood mid-air ceaselessly.
He was sent flying yet again.
"Damned bastard!"
Being knocked away again and again destabilized the aura of Skyfiend Sect’s Quasi-Emperor.
His vitality was already waning, and his body became more and more untenable.
"Skyfiend Seal!"
With a furious roar, the Skyfiend Sect’s Quasi-Emperor summoned their Divine Weapon belonging to a Quasi-Emperor.
He knew he could not go on like this, otherwise, he might truly die at the hands of Chen Jin.
Boom!
An instant later, a seal flew over, enlarging against the wind to the size of a small hill, exuding an ancient aura. Black qi twined around it, as if evil spirits were howling.
A Quasi-Emperor Divine Weapon, second only to those of Emperors, is also an exceptionally formidable treasure.
Possessing a Quasi-Emperor Divine Weapon, a Quasi-Emperor could unleash terrifying combat power.
The Skyfiend Sect’s Quasi-Emperor knew if the battle went on, his body could not sustain it, and he had to quickly finish Chen Jin off.
"Be suppressed!"
Following the words of Skyfiend Sect’s Quasi-Emperor, the Skyfiend Seal directly pressed down towards Chen Jin.
"Heavenly Profound Sword!"
Chen Jin’s expression was unchanged as a profound longsword suddenly appeared in his hand, surrounded by an ancient aura—another Quasi-Emperor Divine Weapon.
"Extinguish!"
The Heavenly Profound Sword swung out massively, the energy it exploded with was in no way inferior to the Skyfiend Seal.
"Damn it, you actually possess a Quasi-Emperor Divine Weapon."
Seeing the Heavenly Profound Sword, the face of Skyfiend Sect’s Quasi-Emperor immediately turned grim.
At this moment, Chen Jin seemed like a celestial deity, his Sword Qi constantly swinging.
The two clashed once more, making things miserable for the other members of Skyfiend Sect.
They were already trapped in Skyfiend Sect, unable to escape, and now they had to endure the battle aftermath of the two Quasi-Emperors.
Even those in the Saint Realm couldn’t contend now; they only had one path to death.
If it weren’t for the Heaven-Sealing Earth-Locking array locking the area, countless living beings around would have died.
After a long time, Chen Jin, holding the Heavenly Profound Sword, crushed the body of Skyfiend Sect’s Quasi-Emperor with supreme Sword Qi.
A black glow flickered, Skyfiend Sect’s Quasi-Emperor revived once again, but this time he could barely hold on, panting heavily, his face pale as paper.
"Skyfiend Seal!"
With a roar, he summoned the Skyfiend Seal back, clearly about to launch his final attack.
As the Skyfiend Seal returned, he infused all his blood essence into it, charging at Chen Jin.
Chen Jin’s face bore no expression, just ceaselessly swinging the Heavenly Profound Sword, the Sword Qi forming a river, each strand bursting with immense power.
Boom!
The two collided, in an instant, the sky collapsed, and the ground crumbled. All of Skyfiend Sect’s Saints were engulfed in the powerful shockwave.
The terrifying energy seemed to tear everything apart, the heaven and earth collapsing at that moment, leaving nothing but endless void in the end.
Crack!
A sound of shattering rang out—the Skyfiend Seal’s surface actually showed numerous cracks.
It did not last long; with a thud,
The Tianmo Mark shattered instantly.
"How, how is this possible!" The Quasi-Emperor of Tianmo Sect’s eyes widened, filled with disbelief.
At this moment, he had no hope left, for the shattering of the Tianmo Mark signified the end of this battle.
"Die!"
Waving the Heavenly Profound Sword gently, Sword Qi soared like a rainbow, slicing the Quasi-Emperor of Tianmo Sect in two.
Then, a divine light flickered in Chen Jin’s eyes as it settled on the Quasi-Emperor’s soul.
In an instant, the Quasi-Emperor of Tianmo Sect’s soul was utterly destroyed.
"Ancestor!"
The remaining members of Tianmo Sect shouted out loud, now at their last gasp and filled with immense sorrow.
Chen Jin looked on indifferently, and with a swing of his sword, the rest vanished into smoke and clouds.
Afterward, Chen Jin approached the members of the Demon God Temple, staggering and half-kneeling on the ground.
At the same time, countless beams of light flew out from his body, returning to the others.
The moment the light returned, the others’ momentum began to recover, too.
"Let’s go, back we go!"
Chen Jin said weakly, and then the crowd dissipated the great formation and disappeared into the void.
With their departure, all that remained of the Tianmo Sect was ruins and the crumbled fissures of space.
The land where Tianmo Sect once stood had been forcefully erased.
A few hours later, the void flickered, and two figures stepped out from it, their faces grave as they surveyed the battlefield.
"The entire Tianmo Sect has been annihilated. Who could have done this, to go unnoticed by us, without even a trace of their presence felt?"
This middle-aged man was no minor identity.
He was the Yuandao Sect Master.
Looking at the scene before him, his heart was full of shock.
This place was previously Tianmo Sect’s territory, and although it had no emperor-class Divine Weapons, there were Quasi-Emperor-class ones to suppress it.
It was quite renowned in the entire Dao Realm.
But now, the whole sect had been wiped out by someone, and no one could tell what Secret Technique was used that left no trace for detection.
"In this world, aside from the Demon God Temple, who else could do this?"
The young man with a scholarly demeanor looking down at the battlefield below spoke in a deep voice.
This was the Origin Sect Master.
As soon as Chen Jin and the others retreated and released the Heaven-Sealing Earth-Locking formation, the presence of the Quasi-Emperor was emitted, and the two men arrived almost immediately.
However, compared to the Yuandao Sect Master, who knew nothing, the Origin Sect Master certainly knew more.
He was aware of the relationship between Liu Zheng and the Demon God Temple.
Thus, he knew that the Demon God Temple would eventually take action against Tianmo Sect.
Indeed, they did just that today; even the Tianmo Sect with a Quasi-Emperor could not resist, and they did so silently.
They only received news after everything was over.
"Why would the Demon God Temple move against the Tianmo Sect? Could it be that someone paid a price?"
"If that’s truly the case, then the price paid by that person must have been substantial."
The Yuandao Sect Master, not knowing about the Demon God Temple, first thought someone had paid a price for the Temple to act.
The Origin Sect Master shook his head slightly, then turned and entered the void. Before leaving, he let out a sentence, "If the Demon God Temple is not eradicated now, we will meet the same fate as Tianmo Sect later."
Deep down, the Origin Sect Master still resented the Demon God Temple.
Even if he had the chance, he would want to annihilate it.
The reason was simple, he felt the Demon God Temple was too dangerous. They were beings without a standing, and as long as the price was right, they could do anything.
If the ancient races were to pay the price, then their human race would be in danger.
