980 One Out Of The Two Dies (1/2)
Now that the Nine Capital Lifeless Blade Formation was destroyed, no one had any ability to protect Liujue anymore.
However, the first to have any battle outcome wasn't Zong Shou but Yexuan.
Just as that slaying sword light swept out in an unrestrained manner, Yexuan's Big Domain Shaking Sword sword light which split into two suddenly dispersed, disappearing totally.
Just as the two people in the distance were astonished, the sword light rang out and gathered into a line. It was like a white dragon as it flashed across.
”Big Domain Dragon Strike!”
Instantly, blood splattered all over the void and scattered everywhere.
Guanzhong's body was shattered with one sword and his body exploded flesh and blood everywhere.
Yexuan's Big Domain Sword Technique could go up against three Saint Realm Cultivators. Now that Liujue was gone, he could even save half of his powers.
Gathering the sword into one, naturally he would be able to kill someone from the Saint Realm.
Yesheng who was standing to the side had a drastic change of expression. He didn't want to fight anymore and retreated in a frenzy.
Out of the three of them, he was the only one who seemed perfectly fine, but he was completely terrified. He didn't have any thoughts about capturing Zong Shou. He just wanted to flee and get as far away from Zong Shou as possible.
Guanzhong died, one of the Nine Capital Lifeless Blade Formations was destroyed, and people from the Taoist Faction escaped.
Their defeat today was already decided, but no matter what they tried, they wouldn't be able to turn the tides.
Since that was the case, then the only thing he could do was flee. He was the Nine Capital Celestial Dynasty's Saint Realm helper and each year he would get a salary from Liu Muchen to do things for the Celestial Dynasty.
However, there was no need for him to die along with it!
Guanzhong retreated, Liujue was more and more alone and helpless. He stood in front of Zong Shou, his arms were broken, and he looking extremely pitiful and tragic.
Such a person like him didn't really fear death, his eyes were only filled with rage, hatred, and an unwillingness to die.
He was unwilling to die, unwilling to stop in his Dao journey...
Zong Shou had no intention of showing mercy to him. He looked across with a cold expression, and the Nameless Sword waved once more, using the energy of the 184 Source Ocean Demon Slaying Warriors to drive the Slaying Sword Intent!
”Imperial Slaying!”
With a slash, Liujue's body was cut into two without any resistance.
Just nicely at that moment, Aoyi also attacked. Just as Ji Ming and Hantao were distracted by the changes at this side, a 100-foot ice blade appeared in her hands. The freezing power solidified about 20 breaths worth of the spiritual river.
Overcome by the cold, his entire body went numb. The ice blade slashed across like a hot knife through butter, easily pushing the bow away, and then entering his chest.
There were no scenes of blood and flesh splattering. Aoyi's methods were much more gentle than Zong Shou and Yexuan's.
The blade entered his stomach, causing Ji Ming's body to be frozen in layers of ice. Like an ice coffin, he floated in the void.
The people around were all terrified and spread about.
Liujue died, Guanzhong died, Ji Ming died, Bai Daozi died. At this point, four Saint Realm Venerables fell, one after the other.
The remaining few Saint Realm Venerables didn't have any heart to fight. They knew that at this moment, even if they went all out, they wouldn't be able to hurt Zong Shou at all.
Aoyi laughed coldly, taking out two hairpins from her hair and tossing it over. It instantly turned into streaks of light that chased over.
Hantao wasn't able to flee in time and he could only teleport around to try to dodge these hairpins.
The ice blade chased over just as his body stopped for a moment. Another dozen rounds went by and he was badly injured. The flesh and blood in his body was totally frozen. Although he didn't die, he was also frozen in an ice coffin.
Xuxun was in an even worse situation, he was also chased by the hairpin, and he was really in a pickle.
His cultivation wasn't as strong as Ruotao's, so he was unable to dodge. He went all out to block the ice blade, but the jade hairpin directly stabbed into his head.
The ice power spread out. He was unable to block it and instantly his soul was wiped out.
Saint Realm Venerables had Indestructible Bodies and the ability to revive through a drop of blood. However, as this Extreme Freezing Power spread out, it wasn't of any use.
Aoyi didn't attack the other people, allowing them to flee into the distance.
One was that she didn't have enough strength, so she could only let it happen. Second was that she knew what Zong Shou wanted.
To Great Gan, they only wanted to heavily damage Nine Capital Celestial Dynasty such that they couldn't fight back.
If it was destroyed here, not only would it not benefit them, but it would benefit other people.
It was best that they had some strength to defend against the attacks and invasions of other people.
The longer they tangled with others, the better it would be for Great Gan. They would be able to gain a stable footing in Yuanlian World without much worries about any other thing at all.
This was why Aoyi didn't worry much about the other Saint Realm Venerables from Nine Capital Celestial Dynasty.
She killed Xuxun, Ji Ming, and Hantao as they were from Xuanling Guild and Jijue Celestial Dynasty.
After killing them, it would badly injure those two powers. It was also a warning to them that Great Gan could totally wipe out the claws and fangs that Xuanling Guild and Jijue Celestial Dynasty stretched out in the future.
Zong Shou also didn't bother with the people that escaped.
After killing Liujue, he controlled the white sword light to tear open the void and stretch into the distance.
He pierced through the World River and broke layer after layer of barriers. His sword intent pointed to the frenziedly fleeing flying boat.
It was an Intermediate Grade Celestial Treasure and now under the use of two Saint Realm Venerables, it was so much quicker that it was beyond description. It was like a streak of light flashing, one flash could cover 10,000 miles.
However, it wasn't faster than Zong Shou's sword. It started late but managed to catch up, in just a tenth of the flick of a finger, it chased up to the flying boat.
It passed through dozens of layers of space barriers but didn't show any signs of weakening at all, instead, it became much stronger!
Within the flying boat was a willow leaf-shaped blade light that slashed over.
The moment it came into contact with the sword light, it backed off.
Following closely behind was a golden seal that became 100,000 feet wide and pressed down from above.
