Chapter 804 – Summon The Sword Saint! (1/2)

“Don’t let that lightning drop down! Give me another 100 breaths of time!” Suddenly, Xu Qianye’s voice resounded.

Everyone here instantly returned to their senses when they heard him. After all, if the Lightning of Obliteration struck the ground, then the entire Hallowed Grounds might be instantly transformed into ashes. At that time, the continent would shatter into bits and everyone would die!

“Let’s join forces!” The Hallowed Lord appeared by Yang Ye’s side. At the same time, the experts of the Hallowed Grounds and the defiant profounders appeared all around Yang Ye.

Humans were mostly selfish, but there were many occasions that they would unite as one and erupt with boundless strength. It was exactly why humans were able to survive in the boundless universe.

“Heaven Incinerator!”

“Benevolence Point!”

“Skysplitter!”

At this moment, everyone executed their strongest attacks. However, even the joint forces of over 10,000 Half-Saints merely caused the Lightning of Obliteration to tremble slightly, and it even started descending faster!

Everyone was horrified!

At this moment, Yang Ye didn’t dare conceal his strength anymore. He waved his right hand and over 1,000 mid-grade Half-Saints appeared here before all of them joined forces once more.

However, they noticed to their despair that their joint forces were utterly useless against the Lightning of Obliteration!

“Summon the Sword Saint!” The Hallowed Lord’s voice suddenly resounded in the sky.

The four Pavilion Masters who stayed by the Hallowed Lord’s side were shocked, and one of them said, “Hallowed Lord, it isn’t the time for that. If we use it now, then….”

The Hallowed Lord waved his hand and said, “If we don’t use it now, then we might not have another chance!”

Their bodies trembled slightly when they heard this, and then they exchanged glances before they nodded and spoke in unison, “Summon the Sword Saint!”

Their voices shot into the sky!

Om!

As soon as they finished speaking, a resounding sword howl suddenly arose from the Ancient City of Hallows, and it surged through the world! After that, a white ray of light shot up from the city, and it tore through s.p.a.ce and appeared in the sky above them.

The white light dispersed to reveal an old man who held a sword in his hand.

Yang Ye’s pupils constricted slightly because the old man was the same old man he’d met at the bottom of the Netherworld Ocean, the 2nd master of the Sword Spirit. Yang Ye was extremely puzzled because the old man had said that he’d vanished completely from this world! So, Yang Ye wondered what he was doing here!

Meanwhile, the Sword Spirit suddenly appeared by Yang Ye’s side, and her eyes actually turned crimson red as she looked at the old man in midair. Rays of light surged from within her, and she was about to attack. Yang Ye was shocked when he noticed such a scene, and he hurriedly grabbed her hand. The latter gazed at Yang Ye with ghastly killing intent in her eyes, but Yang Ye still held on tightly to her hand.

“Let go!” The Sword Spirit’s voice was extremely cold, and the killing intent in her eyes grew thicker and thicker.

Yang Ye shook his head. He wasn’t afraid that the Sword Spirit would kill the old man; he was afraid that the Sword Spirit would be killed by the old man. The aura emanated from the old man even caused his heart to tremble, and he was sure that the Sword Spirit was absolutely no match for the old man!

Yang Ye said, “Regardless of what he has done, he’s dead.”

The Sword Spirit’s hand trembled slightly as she slowly closed her eyes, and the light she emanated started to gradually dim down. Yang Ye heaved a soft sigh of relief when he saw that.

The old man’s gaze swept through the surroundings before finally stopping on the defiant profounders for a moment. After that, he raised his head and looked up at the Lightning of Obliteration. There was a trace of sorrow in his eyes as he said, “The continent was bound to face a calamity, but I never expected that it wouldn’t come from the defiant profounders but the Heaven Dao of the Outer Heavens!”

“Senior, please lend us a hand!” The Hallowed Lord bowed to the old man and spoke in a rather respectful tone.

“The sole reason for my existence is to provide one last bit of help to the continent.” As soon as he finished speaking, dazzling light suddenly erupted from the old man, and it was accompanied by a sword howl. The old man’s figure transformed into a ray of light that shot up into the sky.

The ray of light smashed against the Lightning of Obliteration.

Bang!

A huge explosion erupted in the sky. The Sword Saint and the dark violet bolt of divine lightning exploded apart, and then countless waves of energy overlapped as they swept through the sky. The s.p.a.ce throughout the sky rippled like waves, and it was an extremely horrifying sight.

The countless profounders below heaved sighs of relief when they witnessed this scene. But right at this moment, countless fine bolts of dark violet divine lightning shot out from the waves of energy, and they poured down like rain. They formed such a swift and dense rain that the expressions of everyone here changed drastically.

“Watch out! Don’t let them hit you!” The Hallowed Lord’s voice carried a trace of anxiousness and terror.

However, he was still a little too late. Some Half-Saints weren’t able to dodge in time, and they were struck by the dark violet bolts of lightning and were killed on the spot. They didn’t even have the chance to let out a shrill cry.

Even Half-Saints suffered such a fate, and it was worse for those below the Half-Saint Realm….
