Chapter 744 Sheng Yuan Flees (1/2)
Urgh!
When the two golden lotuses were smashed to pieces, palace master Sheng Yuan’s complexion instantly turned deathly pale, and he violently vomited a mouthful of blood. The powerful aura that surged around him rapidly began to decline.
Palace master Sheng Yuan’s double lotus stage had been forcibly constructed by the power from the ultimate experts of the sacred race. As such, it was not the true double lotus stage.
Shattering the two lotuses was akin to scattering the sacred race’s power.
As a result, palace master Sheng Yuan was beaten back to his original state.
He had fallen back to the false Saint stage.
The many experts in the vicinity could naturally sense palace master Sheng Yuan’s drop in power, an observation which violently shook their hearts. No one had expected the previously invincible and victorious Sheng Yuan to so swiftly undergo such a reversal.
The expressions of the Sacred Palace experts changed drastically as terror filled their eyes.
In contrast, sect master Qing Yang, the Heavenly Sword Sovereign and the other hegemons could not help but be happily surprised.
This sudden reversal was akin to a giant gift from the heavens.
After all, they knew full well that all of their trump cards had already been used up at this juncture. If not for the mysterious black-robed elder’s appearance, Sheng Yuan would have definitely become the ultimate winner.
“How can this be...how can this be!” roared palace master Sheng Yuan in an unresigned manner.
Both parties had been at the double lotus stage, and he could not believe that the disparity between them was actually so great.
Of course, he was also very terrified inside. Only now did he finally realize that even after borrowing the sacred race’s power, he was still unable to compare to a true double lotus stage expert.
After all, he was still a mere false Saint!
In the sky, Cang Yuan frostily stared at palace master Sheng Yuan. With a thought, two golden lotuses pierced through the air, heading straight for Sheng Yuan with the intention to kill.
Rumble!
However, Sheng Yuan had already sensed Cang Yuan’s killing intent. Before the two lotuses could properly lock onto him, his body self-destructed amidst countless shocked gazes. Destructive energies swept outwards, blowing away the two golden lotuses.
“Fine, I admit defeat today!
“But don’t be too happy because the sacred race will not let you off!
“And Zhou Yuan, when I recover and obtain the Cangxuan Saint Stamp, I will definitely ma.s.sacre every single person you know in Cangxuan Heaven!”
As Sheng Yuan’s body exploded, a voice laced with murder sounded across the area.
Sheng Yuan’s aura soon disappeared.
By this stage, Sheng Yuan also understood that it was his defeat. Fortunately, the Cangxuan Saint Stamp had already been shattered into countless fragments and had scattered across the vast Cangxuan Heaven. As long as he invested some time and effort, he should be able to gather them all.
As for the mysterious black-robed elder, Sheng Yuan did not believe he dared to linger in Cangxuan Heaven for too long. Sheng Yuan thought so because he had felt the ultimate sacred race experts outside the world boundary begin the stir restlessly the moment Cang Yuan appeared.
The black-robed elder was clearly an enemy of the sacred race.
Now that his location had been revealed, if Cang Yuan overstayed, the sacred race would surely do everything they could to descend and hunt him like how they had killed patriarch Cang Xuan back then.
Once the black-robed elder was gone, who would be able to stop Sheng Yuan once he recovered from his injuries?
Moreover, he would naturally have a chance for revenge when he obtained the Cangxuan Saint Stamp and used it to ascend to the Saint stage in the future.
