430 The End of the World (1/2)
When the two words Immortal Dew printed on the sword body changed into Kill Immortal, it was as if an invisible force was suddenly released. Between the heaven and the earth, the spiritual energy violently moved in an ever-changing way. The whistling of gale fled along the gap between mountains, the billowing dark clouds from the horizon gathered and dispersed, and the lightning snaked through the layers of clouds.
Qiong Hua quietly presented the Kill Immortal sword. Her mind was like an ancient well, waveless, totally without any emotion. The sword qi trace of the Kill Immortal sword wound around her body so that all external forces could not invade it, and also could not disturb her state of mind.
The Kill Immortal sword was one of the most famous immortal treasures in the Nine Regions prior to the Age of Chaos. Its immortal treasure rank was not just in name, but also reality, such that even in the true immortal world, it was really hard to withstand its sharpness. It was just that, as time went by, the Big Dipper has turned and the stars have moved, so now, the immortal aura of Kill Immortal sword had almost completely dispersed. As of now, it only remained in the form of sword kernel, similar to a dried corpse, its magical ability and power quite possibly have been nearly exhausted. By chance coincidence, Shengjing Sect found this sword a thousand years ago, but it couldn't be used freely.
Qiong Hua obtained the Kill Immortal sword from the sect Elder, becoming her personal collection. Day and night she refined it until finally, when she broke through Jindan Stage, the Kill Immortal sword was integrated into the sword platform in her Jade Mansion. She then used her boundless potential to help it regain its vitality, turning it into the basic shape of Immortal Dew. Although it was still far from its prowess in its heyday, it was still an extremely rare spiritual treasure.
Until this time, when Qiong Hua picked the Kill Immortal sword again, even with her current stage, she could not freely use the power of Kill Immortal sword and could not restrain the sword momentum that came out. And this was the huge fear of the sword cultivator. The sword must be quick and agile, how could it be as rough as an ordinary ax?
However, at this moment, Qiong Hua didn't really need any precise control.
Because the target was simply too big that even if she purposely tried to miss it, it would still be difficult. This thought brought a slight chuckle to Qiong Hua as she lifted the last seal that she could unseal.
The picturesque landscape was re-attached to the wall of the Jade Mansion, and the clear spring that came down from the mountain had completely vanished.
The Immortal Dew had finally become the Kill Immortal. Within the quick and agile flying sword seemed to hide a whole new world, the world of ocean of blood and raging wave.
This Kill Immortal sword was her last card in this world.
Whether you are the inheritor of Royal Soldier Sect, invincible in the battlefield, or Ten Thousand Arts Methods Comprehension, possessing the Thunder Body, or divine Non-Phase, and unbreakable Diamond… under the Kill Immortal sword, none were worth mentioning. She had been cultivating for twenty years, and this Kill Immortal sword had accompanied her for twenty years, but this was the first time she showed its sharpness.
Even when she managed to form the golden core, her magical power complete, and her mind was free and unrestrained, she never thought of releasing the Kill Immortal sword. Because Qiong Hua was very clear that she should wait for the harvest time.
And now, the harvest time had finally arrived.
The process of washing the Immortal Dew to reveal the Kill Immortal only took a short moment of time, but it actually appeared extremely long. However, when the Kill Immortal sword appeared in this world, the time seemed to stop. The Eternal Tree that had just lifted its leg in the distance, after crossing over more than ten mountains, before its stout leg composed of roots landed, it seemed could no longer relieve the earth anymore.
Because the Kill Immortal sword had attacked.
Qiong Hua's movement was very elegant and lithe. The immortal sword was famous for its killer attack—it was like a bunch of wickers as it was swung by the woman's slender arm, drawing a careless arc.
This was not Qiong Hua's mercy, but… with her cultivation time, this was the limit that she could do. The Kill Immortal sword seemed light, moreover, at this time, in the middle of the sword, there was still ten extra seals placed by Daoist He Tu, which could be excessively heavy in regard to a Jindan Stage cultivator. Qiong Hua felt that she was holding the entire world and her best effort could only result in her gently wielding it.
Because she barely managed to control the immortal sword, the direction of the swinging of the sword was even somewhat out of aim. Although the target Eternal Tree was very big, because it was separated by a long distance, the sword light of the flying sword seemed to miss by several degrees, and thus did not reach the Eternal Tree.
For Qiong Hua, this was an almost unthinkable blunder, but soon people realized that this error was irrelevant.
Along with the movement of Kill Immortal sword, a clear crack appeared in mid-air across it. The crack was narrow, from which came a pulsating red glow. It seemed like a rift had appeared in space.
However, the next moment, like a burst dam, the red glow from the crack burst out and, in the twinkling of an eye, submerged the mountaintop in front of Qiong Hua. And it continued to expand rapidly. Very quickly, it spread along the mountains and rivers.
Whenever the red light passed over a place, the place immediately became barren, with all the vitality severed. But each death aura only made the red light grew stronger, and it rapidly spread until it reached a jaw-dropping situation.
Yes, the target was so big, and even the Kill Immortal sword could not be freely handled, but so what?
Because Qiong Hua's target was the whole world...
The Kill Immortal sword was an ancient immortal sword. Its magical ability of slaughter was far beyond what ordinary people could imagine. Even if Daoist He Tu has given it heavy seals, it could still be an incredible power in Qiong Hua's hand.
She used her Jindan Stage to match with the secret method of trinity, and also used the power of the master of Golden City, as well as the power of gold spirit and water spirit. All of that combined was then poured into the Kill Immortal sword as the sacrificial offering to the temple of slaughter. And then the Kill Immortal sword summoned the ancient object of massacre, which was sufficient enough to threaten this little world.
This was not a complete world but merely an immortal dream land generated by the group of immortal tombs. Although Qiong Hua could not break the world with her sword, she could break a dream land.
The red light rushed out of the crack and greedily spread to the rest of the world, setting off monstrous slaughters. However, with every slaughter, the red light became even formidable, like the spear of a plague and could not be stopped.
If it was an independent and perfect world, in the face of crisis of extinction, the will of heaven would drop to defuse the crisis. For example, the Divine Tribulation in Nine Regions was a way of balancing the world. However, this immortal dream land was still one step away from the real world. Thus, it was unable to quell the crisis, and could only let the red light to spread and continue to slaughter to disintegrate this world.
What about the Eternal Tree?
When the red light appeared, the entire world had been put under Kill Immortal sword by Qiong Hua, thus the Eternal Tree was no longer in her eyes.
