Chapter 772 - The return of the lustrous scholar (2/2)

This is very likely the case… after all, something happened to the counterpart of the ball of liquid metal in the main world. At the same time, my presence in the Netherworld Realm is holding it back and preventing it from becoming the sole ruler of the Netherworld.

If this situation continues, that ball of liquid metal would have no choice but to disappear without a trace.

Therefore, it’s quite reasonable that it is urgently looking for a way to leave the Netherworld Realm and cling to that slim chance of survival.

But how can it be so easy to leave the Netherworld Realm? That guy is too naive,Senior White Two thought to himself.

Whatever… no matter what that ball of liquid metal was planning to do, he wouldn’t let it do as it wished, and he had also left behind some room for maneuver.

After all, how could such an interesting matter be short of him?

❄️❄️❄️

In the meantime, outside the filtering nets of the White Cloud Academy.

A s.p.a.ce gate suddenly appeared amidst the warring Eighth Stage Profound Sages.

“A s.p.a.ce gate?” The old scholar gasped for breath, and stared at the s.p.a.ce gate. This gate was different from the s.p.a.ce crack Venerable Tornado had opened earlier through his G.o.dly weapon of the Tribulation Transcender-rank. This s.p.a.ce gate was the work of a real Ninth Stage Tribulation Transcender.

A Ninth Stage Tribulation Transcender was about to appear, and its objective was to meddle in this battle between the scholarly faction and the Netherworld Realm…

Was this person a friend or a foe?

The old scholar secretly clutched the page of a golden book. If the incoming person was a Tribulation Transcender of the Netherworld Realm, he would make use of this page. It was one of the techniques the Sage left behind, and it was enough to restrain or even seal ordinary Tribulation Transcenders.

Soon after, a figure drilled out of the s.p.a.ce gate.

It was a man dressed up as a scholar. His body was pure both on the inside and the outside, and was emitting a l.u.s.trous s.h.i.+ne all over. Both the eyes of the scholar were red, full of insanity and madness.

After making his appearance, the l.u.s.trous scholar didn’t speak, but grabbed the long sword hanging at his waist.

In the next moment, he used the scholarly ❮Celestial Sprint❯ footwork and instantly appeared above the head of a gigantic demonic hive.

The long sword in his hand slashed down without mercy as the sword qi exploded!

In front of the gigantic body of the demonic hive, his long sword wasn’t any different from a toothpick…but as soon as the sword qi inside the long sword exploded, the head of the demonic hive burst open. One sword attack was enough to claim the life of this demonic hive, thoroughly killing it. In the next moment, its huge body crashed toward the filtering nets…

However, it was only the beginning. The l.u.s.trous scholar stretched out his hand and slashed in the air, opening another s.p.a.ce gate and drilling inside it.

In the next moment, he simultaneously appeared above the heads of the four other demonic hives, just as though he had split his body.

Just like before, he aimed his sword toward the heads of the four demonic hives and slashed down.

Sword qi exploded once more!

The heads of the various demonic hives exploded like watermelons. These ent.i.ties of the Eighth Stage rank had died before they could even get the opportunity to put up a struggle.

Not even three seconds had pa.s.sed since the moment the l.u.s.trous scholar appeared and finished killing the five demonic hives.

“Boom, boom, boom~”

The corpses of the demonic hives crashed on the filtering net one after another.

Not even cutting vegetables was this easy.

After killing the five demonic hives, the body of the l.u.s.trous scholar stopped for a moment.

Afterward, he raised his head and looked toward a distant place… the other five demonic hives were currently transporting the new batch of demons toward the White Cloud Academy.

However, they were all dumbfounded when they saw that l.u.s.trous scholar instantly killing their five companions.

They quickly turned around and headed back to that temporary s.p.a.ce pa.s.sage leading to the Netherworld Realm.

To deal with a Tribulation Transcender… they had to rely on another Tribulation Transcender! Their only hope was to flee to the Netherworld Realm and request a demon of the Tribulation Transcender-rank to deal with this l.u.s.trous scholar.

“Hmph!” The l.u.s.trous scholar snorted, and drilled into another s.p.a.ce gate.

In the next moment, bright sword light exploded above the heads of the five demonic hives that were trying to run away.

Were they really considering running away from the hands of a Tribulation Transcender that could control the power of s.p.a.ce? Laughable!

Those ten demonic hives of the Eighth Stage that had no rivals in the world were completely obliterated in just seven or eight seconds.

The demons of the Netherworld Realm were shocked…

The disciples of the scholarly faction were shocked…

Song Shuhang was also shocked…

Isn’t that one of those thirteen Tribulation Transcenders that were under the command of the Sage, the l.u.s.trous scholar? He is still alive?

Didn’t that guy leave for the Netherworld Realm after borrowing my ‘ghost spirit’, thoroughly dying as he was fighting a demon of the Tribulation Transcender-rank?
