Ancient Godly Monarch
Page 1468The violet light in Zi Daolong’s eyes was extremely intense. He thought that there shouldn’t be a problem for a peak-stage immortal king to kill Qin Wentian. However, never did he imagine that Qin Wentian would pretend to retreat in order to hunt down that peak-stage immortal king. Their battle only lasted for a short while and the peak-stage immortal king had already died. In addition, none of them was clear on how Qin Wentian did it.
A peak stage immortal-king, even to the peak powers, they were considered a part of the core strength. The death of one would definitely be a huge cost. Let alone the fact that his father, the Violet Emperor, wasn’t like the Skymist Immortal Empire or the Evergreen Immortal Empire, governing a large amount of land. Each of his disciples was selected carefully to be nurtured. The death of that peak-stage immortal king truly caused Zi Daolong to feel pain in his heart.
At this moment, the combat in the area has completely erupted. Those immortal kings that killed their way towards Jun Mengchen, Tuoba Saintsky and the others from the Heavenly Talisman Realm, were all extremely tyrannical. For a period of time, law domains were all unleashed in this space. The members from the Heavenly Talisman Realm grouped around Tuoba Saintsky as they unleashed their own energy. In an instant, Tuoba Saintsky absorbed their energy and melded them together with his own laws. This was a unique point where only he could do. Back then in the war against the Eastern Sage Immortal Sect, he depended on this ability to reign supreme in the battlefield.
Staring at the attacks launched over by the enemy immortal kings, Tuoba Saintsky punched out, the law energies from everyone congregated and formed a solid fist, causing a roar to echo throughout the heavens as the sky changed color. Streaks of chaotic energy churned wildly as the fist imprinted tunnelled through the law domains of their opponents, slamming into an enemy peak-stage immortal king that was at the forefront.
That immortal king’s expression changed drastically when he sensed the force of the blow. It felt like the entire world would be buried within the light emitted by the fist attack. He howled in anger and tightened his defenses. However, when the fist light blasted into him, his defenses completely shattered. With a thunderous boom, the law energy swept over everything, that immortal king was killed in body and soul by the impact from a single punch.
The immortal kings at the back all froze. A peak-stage immortal king then spoke, “He has a unique astral soul that can amplify and stack their power, even borrowing the law energies from others. We cannot fight head-on with that.”
The enemy immortal kings all halted, not daring to act on impulse. They could sense the terrifying strength of Tuoba Saintsky. As long as there are allies near him, he would be able to boost his strength. And in addition, Tuoba Saintsky who is at the peak of the immortal king realm originally, the increase to his strength wouldn’t be as simple as elementary addition but would be boosted by multiple times instead. And in that scenario, who would be capable enough to withstand his attacks? That immortal king who died was a very good example.
Zi Daolong waved his hand and more immortal kings prepared to reinforce the battlefield which Tuoba Saintsky was in. Who would have thought that so many disturbances would suddenly appear? Initially it was just Zi Daolong and his allies against the devil cultivators.
For the other battlefield, the devil kings from the Judiciary Devil Hall were all proficient in the power of judgement. Also, when they joined forces, their strength would form a resonance with each other, greatly boosting their attacks too. The devil kings from the Myriad Ancient Devil Hall led by Bujie, were also extremely fearsome. Although they fought separately, every one of them could borrow the will of ancient devils or even summon one. Things were simply violent to the extreme.
In the few short moments when combat erupted, this entire space was already in chaos. The sky changed color, astral light from the constellations illuminated this space, turning day into night. The spectating immortal kings all retreated far away, causing more and more people to learn of this commotion, knowing that a large-scale battle just erupted.
Qin Wentian returned to the battlefield after killing that peak-stage immortal king. He cast a sharp glance at the battlefield. There was a sword and a saber in his hands and the emperor’s fate behind him only grew brighter and brighter as his entire being exuded a king’s imposingness.
“All the brothers of the Nine-Emperors Immortal Empire have fought with me before. This time, if we can fight side by side again, and if you guys can help me to kill these people I, Zi Daolong, will remember this debt of gratitude forever.” Zi Daolong spoke to several immortal kings from the Nine-Emperors Immortal Empire who had not yet joined the battle. Although the number of immortal kings from the Nine-Emperors Immortal Empire here wasn’t many in number, there were still five of them. In fact, there was even a peak-stage immortal king among them. This can also be considered a source of combat prowess and if they really participated, they would heavily influence the situation, raising the probability of Zi Daolong’s side being the victor.
“The opponent is extraordinarily strong. If we offend him, things wouldn’t be too good for us.” The peak-stage immortal king from the Nine-Emperors Immortal Empire laughed but he didn’t directly reject Zi Daolong.
“That’s simple. Brothers, you guys can help me to kill that man instead. He isn’t from any of the peak powers in the immortal realms.” Zi Daolong pointed to Qin Wentian.
“Him? His combat prowess is very high too and he just slew a peak-stage immortal king opponent.” The peak-stage immortal king from the Nine-Emperors Immortal Empire spoke, causing Zi Daolong to curse silently in his heart. Seems like if he didn’t offer some benefits, these immortal kings from the Nine-Emperors Immortal Empire would not act. This peak-stage immortal king was simply an old and cunning fox.
“How about considering that I owe you guys a debt? In the future, if there’s any need for my help I, Zi Daolong, will definitely repay the favor.” Zi Daolong spoke. The immortal king from the Nine-Emperors Immortal Empire instantly laughed, “Brother Zi, there’s no need to be so courteous. We will definitely help you to finish off that man. You can set your heart at ease and focus on the other opponents.”
“Right.” Zi Daolong nodded. He then turned to Bai Qing. The battlefield here was harder to control, he had to try to control the situation and find an opportunity to kill this female devil.
At this moment, as Qin Wentian was preparing to join the battlefield, he heard the words spoken by Zi Daolong and the experts from the Nine-Emperors Immortal Empire. After that, these five immortal kings revealed killing intent as they stared at him. Wielding both his sword and saber, his law energy gushed forth as he icily stared back at them. “If you guys dare to block me, I shall kill all and show no mercy.”
“What an arrogant fellow. This seat has already been at the peak-stage of the immortal king realm for over a thousand years. Even if your combat prowess is high, you have no qualifications to be arrogant in front of me. Let alone the fact that I have no intentions to slowly exhaust my side by fighting one on one against you. We will directly band together and kill you.” That peak-stage immortal king laughed coldly.
“Bujie, you have already fallen and joined the devil path. You better worry more about the Askheart Temple sending out forces to eradicate you.” That peak-stage immortal king replied with contempt. After that, these five powerful immortal kings all radiated a dazzling nine-colored glow as they advanced forward, moving towards Qin Wentian.
“Go to hell!” The five immortal kings radiated a dazzling beam of immortal light that completely enveloped this space, with Qin Wentian within. Each streak of destructive might was akin to a golden spear, indestructible and overwhelmingly powerful as they pierced towards Qin Wentian. For ordinary mid-stage immortal kings, even if they were at the peak-phase of the mid-stage, they wouldn’t be able to block this attack.
Qin Wentian stood in the air, one hand holding his sword, the other holding his saber. Golden runes circulated protectively around him, radiating a holy will that radiated toughness. There was actually no way for the attacks to break his defense.
“Is this his body of laws? Such toughness is truly terrifying.” The spectators all exclaimed in shock when they saw how powerful Qin Wentian’s defenses was.
However, the expressions of the immortal kings from the Nine-Emperors Immortal Empire didn’t change. The immortal light from them grew even more intense as they all slammed out with their palms, manifesting different types of weapons in the enclosed area, that shot towards Qin Wentian.
“BOOM!” Qin Wentian’s body moved, he actually sped forwards with no hesitation towards the weapons, allowing the terrifying attacks to blast into him, completely disregarding them.
This caused the experts from the Nine-Emperors Immortal Empire to frown. The strength of this physique…was simply out of their expectations.
“Go!” Qin Wentian’s sword shot out, flying from his hand, piercing towards that peak-stage immortal king. The humming of the sword could be heard, the sword was circulating with destructive might powerful enough to destroy everything as it shot forth with blinding speed.
That peak-stage immortal king immediately retreated. However, the sharp sword seemingly locked onto his body, following him closely. Beams of immortal light shot out as he slammed forth with his palm, forming a protective lightscreen in front of him. A moment later, a thunderous boom rang out as the lightscreen actually shattered. That sword then continued forward after some of its momentum has been blunted. The peak-stage immortal king snorted coldly and sent out a palm strike, blasting the sword away.
The saber in Qin Wentian’s hand then slashed out in a simple and unadorned manner, powered by pure force and speed. When this saber slashed out, the four immortal kings felt their souls shuddering as their minds fell into a daze.
With a swishing sound, fresh blood splashed through the air. The four powerful immortal kings were all struck by the saber light at the same instant. A moment later, all of them actually died, stirring up a shocking sight.
“Impossible!” That peak-stage immortal king’s eyes grew as round as saucers when he saw this. He roared loudly, the four immortal kings were all powerful experts from the Nine-Emperors Immortal Empire yet they were actually all slain by a single saber strike from Qin Wentian at the moment when he retreated?
“I’ve said it before. I’ll kill those who block me.” Qin Wentian’s eyes flickered with coldness. He lifted his saber and cleaved down with it again. This peak-stage immortal king only felt a bolt of thunder going off in his mind as he suffered a soul attack.
Despite the pain, the peak-stage immortal king still had the time to react. A nine-colored glow covered his body, manifesting a king’s armor, negating the force of the saber strike. Although he didn’t die, the impact caused him to tremble violently as he coughed out blood. It was only now that he finally realized how intense a threat Qin Wentian is.
Qin Wentian lifted the saber again, his saber intent towering up into the sky. As he cleaved down, the void seemed to be torn asunder. That peak-stage immortal king only saw a saber light shooting through the air for an instant, slicing apart everything as his body was cleaved into two.
Yet another peak-stage immortal king died by Qin Wentian’s hand.
This time around, the domineering Saber-Sword Immortal King had slain five powerful immortal kings in rapid succession!
