Chapter 98 A Battle That Shocked the World!
The head flew high into the air, its face filled with fear, resentment, terror, and disbelief.
He was a venerable being, high above all, roaming freely between heaven and earth, yet he died just like that, his head severed by a single sword, his body and soul vanished.
"I'm not reconciled..."
In his final gaze, the girl appeared so detached.
Her battle armor fluttered, ethereal and otherworldly. After slaying him, she remained calm and composed, as if she had cut through the clouds to see the sun, her entire being enveloped in golden radiance.
The venerable one died here, his eyes filled with confusion and great terror. He was defeated and ended his life in defeat, dying with his eyes open in disbelief.
The blood was vivid, but it quickly turned into a rain of light that fell from the sky, as beautiful as fireworks, yet also shocking.
Below, many people were petrified, even struggling to breathe, finding it hard to accept the reality they were witnessing. How could this be? How could it be like this?
That was a supreme being of his generation. In the blink of an eye, the earth trembled, mountains collapsed, and lakes dried up. He could devour millions of living beings with his aura. He was incredibly powerful, high above all others, and the strongest being in this world.
How could it be so fragile, killed with a single sword strike?
"Master!"
Several young men and women screamed, their eyes filled with fear. They had come from beyond the realm with their master and already held the desolate region in contempt. Who would have thought that such a thing would happen?
With the death of a great master, they have lost their protector, and their future in the church will be difficult... No, now is not even the time to think about the future; the first priority is to get back alive.
The other four Venerable Ones were already on high alert, each radiating divine light and instinctively standing together, their protective divine light forming a continuous barrier.
They already valued the girl highly and did not rashly attack the Butian Pavilion immediately. Although they spoke of her with disdain, they regarded her as an opponent of equal strength.
But now, right in front of them, the girl actually killed two Venerables with two swift sword strikes. This was simply too unbelievable and beyond their imagination.
"Hey, young friend, can we reconcile?" Someone hesitated, filled with fear.
They had no choice but to be afraid. Who could have imagined that a cultivator at the Array Formation Realm could actually cut down a Venerable as easily as slicing a melon? This completely overturned their understanding.
They could all guess that the girl must have used some kind of explosive method, which couldn't last, but no one knew whether she had any strength left, or whether they would be the next to die.
"At this moment, you must be joking." Shi Zhao chuckled, his body unstained by a single drop of blood, truly like a banished immortal, detached from the mortal world.
"Very well, a hero indeed emerges from among the young, but I don't believe you can really kill us!" The four Venerables looked grim, somewhat regretting their earlier actions.
"I told you, I would kill you all. Don't blame me for not warning you."
Shi Zhao smiled faintly, her expression ethereal and graceful, yet when she spoke these words, she exuded such domineering power that she seemed less like a young girl and more like an emperor.
At this moment, the Venerable Ones had no way out. They all stared at the girl and used their strongest treasures to protect themselves. Some of them even used divine artifacts.
Whether we fight or retreat, we must fight with all our might now and cannot afford to be careless.
"kill!!!"
The four shouted in unison, their voices shaking the heavens. Three of them charged forward to fight, while one turned and fled, revealing his true form as a crocodile-dragon.
Just then, inside the Heaven-Mending Pavilion, a verdant vine shot into the sky like a spear. The old vine, which had been startled by the girl earlier, now joined the battle, blocking the path of the Crocodile Dragon Venerable.
"Damn idiot!" The other three Venerables were furious. They hadn't expected such a teammate to betray them. However, with three against one, they still had the advantage.
As a result, the next moment, Shi Zhao's figure blurred and split into three.
The three were connected by their auras and had identical appearances. Although their temperaments were very different, their auras increased exponentially, violently, and powerfully, which was simply earth-shattering.
One man, clad in armor and wielding a divine sword, faced off against the venerable one who possessed a divine artifact; another carried a golden spear; and yet another carried a longbow on his back and had a gleaming white bone cauldron hanging from his head.
Shi Zhao gained insights into the method of primary and secondary bodies, and then re-cultivated his own method, upgrading his supernatural power of one body into three parts, thus achieving true freedom to create separate bodies.
There is no distinction between primary and secondary bodies; each person is simply herself. The drawback is that she cannot exist for an extended period and the consumption of energy is enormous, which is becoming increasingly difficult for her to manage.
Of course, it is truly strong.
Even if she were to separate her supernatural powers and magical techniques, it wouldn't matter, since she had learned a wide variety of skills and possessed many different supernatural abilities.
"boom-!!!"
Almost simultaneously, all three Venerables were forced back, coughing up blood and suffering severe injuries. They were all terrified.
How can we fight this tower?
"Monster, I'll fight you to the death!" The three Venerables seemed to be burning up, unleashing their full potential and fighting desperately.
Two of them were not human and manifested enormous, mountain-like forms.
The three Shi Zhaos, one wielding a sword, one drawing a spear, and one snatching a large cauldron, each displayed their unique skills, unleashing a surge of immense power and pushing their combat strength to its limit.
"puff!!!"
The Venerable One's blood surged high. One person was cut in half at the waist, a ferocious beast was pierced through the brow by an enlarged spear, and a ferocious bird was knocked off its head and its skull was smashed.
"How could this be?" In the distance, their disciples and descendants cried out, trembling and convulsing, some even collapsing to the ground.
That girl was like a goddess, single-handedly slaying five Venerables, which was truly awe-inspiring.
Without a doubt, the heavens of this desolate region are about to be pierced, and its name is destined to spread throughout the eight regions of the lower realm, a battle that will shock the world!
The setting sun has disappeared, and the new moon has not yet appeared.
In such a short time, the five Venerable Ones fell one after another. The battle, from its beginning to its end, was not long. From sunset to now, the moon has not even fully risen.
Inside and outside the Butian Pavilion, everyone fell silent.
Shock, fear, excitement... all sorts of emotions suddenly erupted in the eerie silence, almost uprooting the entire mountain forest.
Undoubtedly, the morale of the disciples and elders of the Butian Pavilion soared, and they were eager to rush out and kill all the invading enemies.
Meanwhile, the various forces that had besieged the Heaven-Mending Pavilion were extremely terrified and filled with fear, and dared not fight any longer.
"Cough cough..." Shi Zhao coughed up blood, used the bone cauldron to collect the corpses of the five Venerables and their weapons, wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth, and looked up at another battlefield.
"Thump!"
In his final battle, the old vine shook its green gourd, wounding the gray dragon and causing its scales to shatter and fall off, its blood splattering. As the old vine was about to perish, its entire body burst into flames.
"Lord Sacrificial Spirit!" Many people cried out in grief within the Heaven-Mending Pavilion.
"I'm going to die." The old vine gazed at the pure land below, where it was born and where it would end.
"Buzz..."
The broken sword in Shi Hao's hand glowed, and an old man with disheveled hair appeared, his head pierced by an ancient sword, from which black blood flowed.
The old man took the broken sword, stroked it with his hand, and his bewildered eyes seemed to clear a little before he appeared in front of the dying old vine.
"You have fulfilled your promise to me, protecting this pure land until you grow old and die in battle," the old man said to the gourd vine.
"I never thought we'd meet again. You planted me and gave me life... but I still feel some resentment for not being able to avenge you."
Old Vine whispered, its figure gradually blurring in the rain of light. Looking at the old man whose head had been pierced by the ancient sword, it miraculously stopped its dissipation.
But in the end, it dissipated, transforming into a magnificent rain of divine spirits.
