769 Murdering an Earthly Immortal with the Immortal-slaying Sword Qi (2/2)
And this Earthly Immortal, a Patriarch of Eastern Thunder Sect, was also considering which Taihao Fairy Weapon he should choose in order to develop a Heavenly Fairy Weapon as his own natal magic weapon.
”Fantastic, fantastic! You just offered me what I need! Now, this Heavenly Fairy Weapon is mine!” At the sight of the red gourd, the Earthly Immortal suddenly turned his jealousy into great joy. Then, he stretched out his hand and conjured up innumerable shadows of his hand, which grabbed at the gourd.
”You're such an idiot! Do you really believe I'm just an ordinary Heavenly Fairy Weapon?” Seeing the hand reaching for him, Ghost Child laughed coldly. ”Though I can't exercise much energy from the main body, I have the power which I absorbed from the fragments of the Immortal-slaying Sword not long ago. That dumbass knew nothing about the essence of the Immortal-slaying Sword, so it tried in vain to produce a Natal Sword out of it anyway. But unlike him, I've been coveting the power of the Immortal-slaying Sword for years!”
”Whoosh!”
Bright red Sword Qi rushed out of the fine red light and soared to the sky, decisively hacking away at the approaching huge hand.
”Swish, swish, swish!”
The seemingly invincible hand belonging to the Earthly Immortal turned out to be totally useless in resisting the Sword Qi. In the bright red sword light, it was reduced to the original pneuma. But before it could get away, the Sword Qi sucked it in.
”Hahaha, the essence Qi of an Earthly Immortal! No, it's not enough, not rich enough. I merely absorbed the pneuma in your hand. Now, I need your body, your whole body!” Ghost Child was laughing wildly. The fine red light cut open the space in a second and traveled to the depths of the vast hollow. Shots of red Sword Qi derived from the red light, and everything stabbed along the direction of the fine red light.
”What is this? It is—”
Unbelievable, it was so unbelievable!
This Patriarch of Eastern Thunder Sect thought that he had seen it all. But this kind of exceptional fairy weapon was something he had never encountered. In fact, right now what worried him most was not this fairy weapon but the Immortal-slaying Sword Qi.
This was not some attack from Zhou Bao or any other mediocre stuff. This was an extremely unusual power that could kill a Celestial Immortal. Even a sophisticated Earthly Immortal who was about to enter the Celestial Immortal Realm would suffer grievously under the attack of this Sword Qi, let alone this Earthly Immortal with immature powers.
”Immortal-slaying Sword Qi! This is impossible! How could you have the Immortal-slaying Sword Qi? How were you able to operate it?” Frantic growls sounded from the depths of the hollow and jets of dreadful forces and Dharma power fluctuations began to shrink.
Meanwhile, Eastern Thunder World also started changing in a weird fashion. All the pneuma were sucked up in an instant, including both the essence of the world and the essence of earth veins.
The originally pneuma-abundant vigorous Eastern Thunder World suddenly withered. After all the essence of the world and the Qi of earth veins were depleted, the next thing being extracted was the endless spacetime around Eastern Thunder World.
One second, everything happened in just one second!
Eastern Thunder World became a vast planet without any trace of pneuma, just like the other vast planets in the Void Universe. In addition to some extremely highly cultivated practitioners, only the Devil Tribe survived. After losing the protection of the pneuma and the endless spacetime, all the other creatures died.
Eastern Thunder World, the foundation of Eastern Thunder Sect, was gone.
”Bravo! You really are an Earthly Immortal! To protect yourself and push the growth of your macro world, you absorbed so much power in such a short spell! However, all your efforts are futile. Even a fully developed Earthly Immortal is not my match, not my match at all!
Ghost Child's voice grew strangely excited as if he had been provoked. As the owner of this Heavenly Fairy Weapon, Zhou Bao also sensed that the red light sent from the gourd was sucking in some eccentric power as it traveled forward with the surrounding Immortal-slaying Sword Qi. This power was essentially comprised of various negative feelings: terror, shock, suspicion, etc.
In contrast to intangible feelings of ordinary people, those feelings were actually substantiated and was sucked in by the red gourd at a furious pace.
”Those were the feelings of the Earthly Immortal! Why did he have such feelings? What on earth is the matter with him?” Zhou Bao's mind raced with countless thoughts. Suddenly, an amazing picture flitted across his eyes. He saw that the fine red light in the gourd finally broke the hollow and extended to an unknown space. This space was empty, except for a white-clothed Elder sitting in the air. The hair and beard of this Elder were all white, but his face was tender and rosy, which made his complexion look like a child's. But right now, this ruddy-faced, wise-looking old man was thoroughly terrified, and the fine red light transfixed between his eyebrows, forced him to stay put. Then, myriads of red Sword Qi accompanied the red light and pierced through his eyebrows. Thereafter, much the same like Eastern Thunder World, his body also started to wither. In the end, he turned into a heap of dust, while the space he stayed in fell apart.
Simultaneously, Zhou Bao felt an enormously rich power pouring into the red gourd. Though this stream of power seemed colossal to him, it was nothing for the red gourd. The red gourd swallowed all the power with one gulp, leaving not a single bit for Zhou Bao.
”Well, it's not going to work. This guy is just an ordinary Earthly Immortal. He has just stepped into the Earthly Immortal, so he is not very useful to me!” Ghost Child said, wiping his mouth. His expression was quite delighted, but you could tell he was still unsatisfied.
