Chapter 360: Three Slash Series, Swords End (2/2)

”Stabilize!” Seeing this slash, Riverwood could feel the immense power that would threaten her life. She immediately activated all the defensive treasures she accumulated in her entire life.

Remember, Riverwood had lived for millions of years, so the number of treasures she got was enormous for sure.

”Bang!” Riverwood had successfully defended herself from the attack. However, it threw her like a kite with its string snapped for a hundred kilometers.

”Grug!” She vomited blood after she bumped into the last rock, ”Dammit.”

That slash had gravely injured her. She thought that all the accumulated defensive treasures would be enough. But it looked like she still underestimated it despite overestimating everything.

”Thump!” Riverwood tried to got back up from her feet. However, she could feel her world turning and weakening. Her legs couldn't take anything anymore. That attack had sapped everything out of her body.

Jin Rou appeared out of the void and looked at her. Though Jin Rou was expressionless, the true god could feel the oppression power Jin Rou was releasing.

”You have lost.” Jin Rou spoke in a cold tone, ”After all that talk, you are just amounted to this. Truly that Riverfairy was much better than you.”

”…” Riverwood didn't say anything. But she admitted it to herself. Riverfairy was better than her in all aspects. If the fairy didn't take the imperial path and chose godhood, she knew herself that the fairy would be the first to reach transcendence. In fact, she could also imagine the fairy being a dao-proven.

It was a bitter fact, but she had long ago accepted this. Thus, it didn't matter to her at all in the past. However, now that she's thinking about it, she couldn't help but feel a bit of envy. She looked up into the gloomy sky, what if things were changed? However, she knew that changing everything was impossible unless you could control time.

”Master!” The two river ancestors, Fli and Shu, flew towards Riverwood in a hurry. They then activated their healing capabilities to heal the true god immediately. Though they were terrified to the core that even their master couldn't do anything, it wasn't the time to think of this.

”It's useless.” Riverwood sighed and said, ”I knew my body well. It's already reaching its limit. And now I'm powerless to do so. Looks like we will die here together.”

Thinking of a escape plan would be rendered useless against a man of this level. So she didn't think about it. She just looked so helpless and apologetic towards the ancestors.

”It is okay, Master.” Fli smiled weakly, ”We are also tired of running, dying with you here isn't a bad idea.”

Their ambition had drained them this hard and they just wanted the relief of death. Perhaps, it was really all wrong to fight for this. But they didn't regret doing it. At the very least, they showed the world something worthwhile, albeit everything amounted to nothing.

”It's time to send you all to the yellow river.” Jin Rou raised the large sword with ease, then he didn't hesitate to slash it with an unstoppable momentum towards the three.

”Boom!” This time, the attack had reached them and they disappeared just like a bubble.

As of this moment, the Endless River was no more than a force that had fallen from grace.
