Chapter 742 - Nine Swords Returning Into One, Starlight (2/2)
Then, the nine golden swords came down.
One of the golden swords pierced Yan Xiu's right chest. Then, it did not stop. After it had penetrated his right chest and pierced right through his body, it stabbed Fang Zhengzhi's right chest too.
“Ah! Yan Xiu!” Fang Zhengzhi cried out in pain. At the same time, his Traceless Sword, which just blocked another golden sword, turned into a purple dragon as it slashed Second Elder.
“Crrrack!” Sounds could be heard from the purple light.
A b.l.o.o.d.y streak appeared on Second Elder's chest. It was so deep until his bones could be seen. The force of the impact sent Second Elder flying.
While Fang Zhengzhi sent Second Elder back with one slash of his sword, the golden swords which attacked Yan Xiu and him did not retreat. They continued to stab him.
“Pfft!”
“Pfft!”
“…”
Fresh blood stained the skies. Fang Zhengzhi's blood, Yan Xiu's blood, and even Second Elder's blood were all inside.
Evidently, when Second Elder used that move, he did not give himself any opportunity to retreat. After he attacked, he did not even have the energy to block Fang Zhengzhi's Traceless Sword.
He used all his strength in one blow.
Like what he said, if Second Elder were to die, he would drag Fang Zhengzhi down with him.
From the moment Second Elder attacked to the moment when Fang Zhengzhi, Yan Xiu, and Second Elder were all heavily injured, only a few seconds had pa.s.sed.
“Second Elder!” When the Heaven Dao Pavilion disciples saw Second Elder collapsing on the ground, they reacted to it.
“Boom!” A huge sound could be heard.
As Second Elder fell onto the ground, the huge golden bell covering Yan Qianli disappeared. One could see that Second Elder had no strength left.
“Yan Xiu!” When Yan Qianli emerged from the golden bell, he looked at Yan Xiu immediately. His eyes were bright red.
Tiny capillaries could be seen in Yan Qing's eyes too. He blocked Fang Zhengzhi from the front but he never expected that Second Elder would be this fast.
He actually bypa.s.sed him.
To him, this was a huge blow. He knew that Second Elder could do that but still, it was a huge blow to him.
“Fang Zhengzhi!” Yan Qing roared like a beast. Then, he charged toward Second Elder.
“Yan Qing, don't even think of hurting Second Elder!” When the Heaven Dao Pavilion disciples saw Yan Qing rus.h.i.+ng toward Second Elder, they emerged from their sword formations to confront him.
“Save…. Save us first?” Fang Zhengzhi could understand Yan Qing's desire for revenge. However, he felt that he and Yan Xiu should be saved first.
Of course, he and Yan Xiu had been stabbed many times. However, these wounds were not fatal. He managed to block the attacks which could have proven to be truly fatal.
However, he was definitely injured.
Yan Xiu was in the greatest danger. He had lost a lot of blood earlier on and his body was weak. Furthermore, he had descended into an Evil Asura. Right now, he had also been stabbed many times, one of which went through his right chest.
Hence, he fainted straight away.
“Old man Yan, bring Yan Xiu and Fang Zhengzhi with your young friend and go! We can't afford any delay!” When the Heavenly Oasis Sage saw Yan Qianli emerging from the golden bell, he shouted at him instantly.
After all, the Heaven Dao Pavilion still had a Great Elder and Pavilion Leader Mu Qingfeng. These two were the true powerhouses of the Heaven Dao Pavilion, which allowed themselves to make a name in the Holy Region and become one of the five sects of the Holy Region.
“Young friend, let's go!” Yan Qianli knew what the Heavenly Oasis Saint was thinking. Yan Xiu was unconscious now. This was the best time to escape.
However, right when he said that…
The entire sky turned dark.
He felt as if the light in the sky had been blocked. Everyone could not help but to raise their heads and looked at the sky above.
Fang Zhengzhi's emotions were hard to describe.
As he was injured, his body lay underneath Yan Xiu, squashed. This allowed him to look at the phenomenon that was taking place.
However, this scene was so odd that he did not know how to describe it.
Instantly, he saw a light appearing in the sky. This light appeared to have come from the stars. However, it was odd for starlight to appear in the daytime.
Of course…
The starlight in the daytime was not the strangest thing.
The starlight seemed to be descending at an even pace.
In fact, when Fang Zhengzhi saw the starlight, he thought that he was seeing things. After all, he had been severely injured and it was normal for him to hallucinate.
Right now, he dismissed this notion.
This was because as the starlight came down, a truly odd scene appeared. The light started to expand ma.s.sively.
The starlight turned black.
It was a completely black rock. Or rather, it was not just one rock but an entire mountain. It was a mountain which could block the sky.
For such a change to happen…
Fang Zhengzhi just wanted to say, “What the actual f*ck?!”
He was truly unlucky. Right when he was severely injured, a humongous mountain actually came cras.h.i.+ng down from the sky.
Was this not f*cking bullying?
Very few people shared Fang Zhengzhi's thought because none of them saw the starlight coming down.
Instead, they just noticed the sky turning dark.
Then, they lifted their heads to see a huge black mountain descending rapidly. It descended so quickly and forced them to scatter in all four directions.
“Where did the mountain come from?!”
“What's going on?”
“Run!”
The Heaven Dao Pavilion disciples were all confused. However, their first reaction was to run to somewhere outside of the shadow. After all, if a mountain actually did come down, it would kill them all.
Fang Zhengzhi wanted to run too.
However, he had been stabbed numerous times and Yan Xiu was currently on top of him. How could he run?
