Chapter 175 Thousands of Years Ago (1/2)
”Since you two love each other so much, I will send you to hell together!” Patriarch Guanshan thundered madly, and his arms suddenly moved, forming a huge space vortex in front of him. The vortex moved toward Xiao Chen as if it could devour everything.
”Naive!” Xiao Chen snorted coldly. He did not need to worry about falling now. He suddenly channeled the True Energy in his body and punched out with both hands. An unmatched power moved toward the vortex. The moment the two forces collided, the earth shook, and large areas of space were torn apart. The drake at the foot of Patriarch Guanshan also roared in pain under the impact of the shock wave, and its scales were flying.
All the people on the ground were frightened and were glad that they were fighting at high altitude. If they were on the ground, nobody could escape this ferocious force.
After that blow, the two sides parted for about hundreds of meters. Patriarch Guanshan's eyes became more malicious. Suddenly, he thundered, ”Heaven-slaying Sword!”
As his voice fell, a 300-meter-long golden sword suddenly appeared in the sky as if it could split the heaven and earth. Even the cultivators far away on the ground felt the horrible power in this sword. People's faces changed. If this sword cut down, the whole Yuqing Mountain would be shattered.
Xiao Chen was not afraid at all. He moved his fingers, and immediately, seven dazzling rows of light appeared in the sky and then merged into one, turning into a huge sword with white radiance.
”Dragon Slay!” He thundered, and the radiance of his huge sword became brighter than the Heaven-slaying Sword. Patriarch Guanshan's face changed slightly, and his green drake also trembled.
The cultivators on the ground were all surprised. What would happen if these two destructive forces collided? Master Xuanji and other experts immediately joined forces to hold up a barrier; otherwise, no one could bear it.
However, an unexpected thing suddenly happened. The huge sword of the Dragon Slay faded away gradually, and Xiao Chen's face immediately showed a painful appearance. Everyone did not know what had happened, and at that time, they all felt a catastrophe coming.
”Haha! Kid! You've lost your cultivation, and your death is approaching!” Patriarch Guanshan guffawed, urging his Heaven-slaying Sword to move to Xiao Chen.
Xiao Chen's face twisted, and the cultivation the Seven Sons pushed into his body suddenly began to decrease. He also didn't know why, so he shouted, ”Senior Sister Liu! You go away!”
The power of this sword should not be underestimated. The sword had not yet been cut down, and it had broken up a large area of the void. Liu Fenghuang had been enveloped by this force and could not leave with him.
The strong wind howled, and the huge sword ruthlessly moved down. Upon seeing the certain death, everyone on the ground turned pale. Li Muxue exclaimed. She felt dizzy, and tears streamed out of her eyes. Murong Xian'er and others were also stunned. Xiao Chen lost his cultivation, and there was no chance of survival under this attack.
At the moment, inside the Coalesced Colors Hall, the faces of the Seven Sons changed. They were connected to Xiao Chen's mind, so they also felt the exception. The Perfected Immortal Qing Chen said, ”Damn! Someone touched the Energy-gathering Formation”
In the square, Yu Yifeng immediately understood what was going on. He rushed to the Tongchen Hall. When approaching, he saw a shadow flashed, and the two disciples he had commanded to guard the hall had already been knocked unconscious.
In high air, the sword finally arrived. At this moment, Liu Fenghuang suddenly turned around and protected Xiao Chen. She used her wings to block the incoming sword. Xiao Chen's eyes opened widely, and he wanted to shout. But he could not make any sound. The sword cut on Liu Fenghuang's back, almost killing her body and soul. Both of them fell to the ground.
When they were close to the ground, Xiao Chen's cultivation finally stopped decreasing. He immediately held Liu Fenghuang backhand, but she already was dying. The wings behind her also dissipated, and blood was flowing out of her mouth. That sword shattered her heart and meridians.
”Senior Sister Liu, hold on!” Xiao Chen immediately injected True Energy into her body. However, it was empty. The sword of Patriarch Guanshan was indeed something, and it was now impossible for him to save her.
People nearby also came quickly. Master Xuanji immediately held Liu Fenghuang's wrist and tried to renew her life by Buddhist methods. However, he was unable to do this. The sword not only hurt her heart and meridians but also her soul.
Liu Fenghuang fell into Xiao Chen's arms, and she smiled weakly. ”Don't be sad. This is my destiny, I can't hide from it... I will now give you the last strength...”
As soon as her voice fell, her whole body gradually faded away, and finally, she turned into stars and gathered into a red radiance which was printed on Xiao Chen's back, forming a phoenix totem.
”Ah!”
Xiao Chen held the air and let out a loud roar. His hair stood on end, and tears streamed out of his eyes. Liu Fenghuang talked to him a lot last night. However, he did not understand them. Now he understood, but it was too late. He looked up at Patriarch Guanshan in high air. His eyes seemed to come from the hall of the netherworld, cold and bone-crushing.
All of a sudden, a pair of phoenix wings were born behind him, burning like flames. Then, he flew to the sky.
