535 My Great Spirit Sword Sect Will Never Be Forgotten! (2/2)
For example, from which world did this alien come from? He was obviously not born a demon race, yet he could steal the Demon King position—could it be that it was by his strength alone? How many behind the scenes manipulators were behind him?
In addition, he had basically seen all about the golden generation. Their talents were indeed impeccable. Especially the top performers like Fei Ying, Zhang Sheng, and the others, which were not far from Ouyang Shang. As the Elders themselves said, in the golden generation, the later generation of Heavenly Sword Hall Elders were mostly second-rate goods. However, from their actual performance, the second-rate evaluation was too modest.
Take Feng Yin for example. In a hundred years time, he went from Xudan Stage to peak Deity Stage, with real strength above that of Deity Stage level. This achievement should be counted among the top rank even in the entire Nine Regions. In the golden generation, perhaps only Ouyang Shang who was expected to be able to achieve this breakthrough within about one hundred years.
And the performance of Wang Wu was also puzzling. More than a hundred years ago, she was just a girl absolutely obsessed with cultivation. Regardless of whether it was the strength or temperament, she was far different than that of her in the future. And these differences, in passing through the timeline, were erased, which caused Wang Lu to feel regret.
But now, these troubled secrets had finally come to light.
What he should do next was to just quietly watch the things unfold in the real historical line.
In the sky, the group of elders of Spirit Sword Sect was confronting the Demon King. On the overall strength, the Spirit Sword Sect had the absolute superiority. They had three people with Supreme level, and the leader among them even vaguely had the aura of immortal treasure. A demon whose body had been bitten by half was far from being their opponent.
The Demon King had long been aware of this.
”To kill me, even one of you is enough to do it—no need to hide that immortal sword, I can see it already. In order to kill that hungry wolf, I have paid a heavy price, so I indeed currently am not your opponent. But now, even if you kill me, it would not matter. The passage has already been opened, and the collapse of the sky is imminent, and no human power could save it.”
Hearing these words, the Elders of Spirit Sword Sect were a bit shocked. Looking up, they saw the rift was so deep they couldn't see the other end of it. Unexpectedly, it seemed to lead to an unknown world.
”... I have long heard there are three thousand worlds, and Nine Regions is only one of them. But there should be insurmountable barriers between worlds. Unexpectedly, it has really been broken.”
The Sect Leader of Spirit Sword Sect looked up at the depths of the passage, the same deep eyes had seen the other side of the passage. After a long time, he sighed. ”Had I known, I shouldn't have hidden the news about the strange happening in this place. Now, Spirit Sword Sect must eat this bitter fruit, we have nothing to say.”
”Senior Brother, why do you say such disheartening words?” From behind him, an Elder with curl mustache burst into laughter. ”From another angle, if we can settle this matter, it would be an extremely great world class feat. Even if we break and lose here, the Five Uniques position of Spirit Sword Sect would be difficult to shake!”
”Well said!” A light flashed through the eyes of the Sect Leader, which showed that he was invigorated and convinced, and then he stepped toward that rift and put his hands into the passage. Behind him, the Elders also unleashed their flying sword and then pushed their strength to the limit.”
The Demon King was taken aback. ”You guys…”
Seeing the plan of the Elders of Spirit Sword Sect, the face of Demon King suddenly turned gloomy. ”Forget about it!” He stretched out his last hand forward and swung a dark mountain from the palm of his hand.
However, the purple dragon rushed over and interrupted the Demon King's summoned mountain with absolute brute force.
”Animal, get away from me!”
That mountain was melted into lava by the blazing flame, and it was then pressed directly on the body of the purple dragon. However, the purple dragon did not care about the injury and just continued to try to entangle the Demon King.
While the purple dragon was delaying the Demon King at the expense of its life, the Elders of Spirit Sword Sect formed a huge hair-raising complex array with amazing determination.
It was a terrifying huge array that used many Supremes as the core, the sect's guardian immortal treasure as a sacrificial offering, and drawing the power from the Feng Shui line of Blue River Region.
”Sky Mend!”
The Sect Leader of Spirit Sword Sect let out his personal immortal sword, which was a ten-thousand-of-year inheritance. This clear and transparent flying sword, which was bestowed from the upper realm in the legend, was a melting point among the lights. Using this as the guide, the sword light reached the sky. After a while, the black tide that covered the sky disappeared and the stars in the sky shone brightly.
The stars were like a waterfall as thousands of lights came from an infinite distance.
The earth cracked, and deep lights bloomed on the surface from the crack, as if they were lights from the earth's core.
Each of the Elders of Spirit Sword Sect, among those rays of light, activated the array. One after the other, the vicissitudes of life of their Jade Mansion came out, and for a moment, the forest of bejeweled jade mansions was 'nothing more beautiful can be imagined'. However, it was soon melted within the rays of light.
”Do you guys think this will stop me?”
The Demon King, who was firmly entangled by the purple dragon, constantly released demon power from the gap, trying to stop the completion of the great Sky Mend Array. However, compared with the great array, personal power was negligible.
”Since I can open this passage once, I'll be able to open it again. Your sacrifice is doomed to be meaningless!”
However, more and more lights gathered around the rift, becoming an insurmountable barrier of the passage, and the Elders of Spirit Sword Sect remained unmoved.
”... Join us.”
The Demon King whispered, ”You guys don't know who the opponent you are going to face. What you guys do now is just mantis blocking the path of the chariot. But, I will give you guys a chance. Join us, become one us, and you will have power far above that of Nine Regions.”
”Hahaha!”
Bursts of laughter were the reply from the Elders of Spirit Sword Sect, who all had totally put their own lives out of consideration.
”... You guys?” The Demon King angrily said, ”If you guys dare to ruin my cause, I will do anything to kill all of your disciples! Even though I would eventually die here, but your Spirit Sword Sect will disappear!”
”Then my great Spirit Sword Sect will never be forgotten, hahaha!”
The last scene that Wang Lu saw was the vast ocean of light completely inundating the rift in the sky. When the light was scattered, the sky was clear, and the Demon King was pale and trembling.
