LIGHTNOVELONLINE Chapter 772
“Why is Fuyao reacting like this?”
That’s because the Yuzhu Clan Leader is actually one of the Nine Nether powerhouses who participated in the siege against her back in the ancient times!
She remembers that he was the hardest one to deal with back then. She thought she’d finish him off after her ascension, but unexpectedly, he survived.
The Yuzhu Clan Leader said indifferently, “I thought you were already dead in that battle. Hearing that you’re still alive truly surprises me.”
“Honestly, you shouldn’t still be alive!”
There was a hint of murderous intent behind his words.
Empress Fuyao smirked, “That’s something I should be saying! The regret of not finishing what I started back then will finally be resolved today!”
Swish~
As soon as she finished speaking, the temperature plummeted to an icy low.
A strong aura of killing intent filled the air, chilling everyone to the bone.
“Hehe, I’m also curious just how much you’ve grown,” said the Yuzhu Clan Leader, his eyes turning gray and eerie. A withered hand slowly raised, revealing a long spear wrapped in deathly energy. The mere presence of it caused the space around him to tremble.
Shla~
The Yuzhu Clan Leader flickered and lunged forward with the spear, his momentum unbeatable.
“That’s fast!”
The Nine Nether powerhouses present felt their spirits tremble; they couldn’t keep up with this confrontation!
As an ancient creature who achieved sainthood long ago, the Yuzhu Clan Leader’s strength was unquestionable.
They all knew he was the only one who could match Empress Fuyao in this situation.
“Kill!”
Empress Fuyao roared, instantly gathering her Three Flowers at the Top and launching a powerful divine ability against him.
Boom!!!
The explosive shockwave was immense, causing all the Nine Nether powerhouses to stagger back in deep shock.
The Yuzhu Clan Leader, solidified on the other side, showed a rare look of solemnity on his aging face, feeling quite pressured inside.
In just that brief exchange, he realized she had similarly comprehended Respect Grade Sacred Intent!
Amid the shattered void, Empress Fuyao stepped forward with an icy gaze, exuding the demeanor of a ruler over all beings.
Now, she was no longer the cultivator barely reaching the Saint King level by relying on heavenly power but a palpable Saint Ancestor, having advanced her intent from Imperial Grade to Respect Grade!
It’s no exaggeration to say that in this vast universe, very few could engage with Empress Fuyao!
“I can assure you that invading the Kunlun Realm is an incredibly foolish and erroneous move!”
“You won’t be able to bear the consequences!”
Empress Fuyao spoke with absolute confidence and then launched an even fiercer offensive against the Yuzhu Clan Leader.
The Yuzhu Clan Leader’s heart sank slightly as he gripped the spear, darting around like a ghost, the endless deathly energy converging at its tip capable of annihilating anything that touched it.
Boom boom boom~
A series of deafening explosions resounded in the skies.
The Nine Nether powerhouses were dumbfounded; they had anticipated Fuyao would be strong, but they never imagined she would be capable of pushing the unfathomable Yuzhu Clan Leader to this extent.
“Let’s all attack together and kill her!” The Bone Sword Clan Leader unsheathed his bloody bone sword, ominously wicked.
The crowd began to stir, ready to charge in.
However, Luo Yan was quick to stop them, saying, “Everyone, don’t waste time. The Yuzhu Clan Leader is here to hold us back; we should use the Destruction Tower and take our positions!”
Feeling a sense of urgency after witnessing Empress Fuyao’s strength, Luo Yan believed initiating the Destruction Tower was the safest option.
The other clan leaders exchanged glances, not fully approving of Luo Yan’s suggestion.
Right at that moment, the Yuzhu Clan Leader’s aged voice came with a hint of urgency, “I agree with Luo Yan. Quickly harness the Destruction Tower! Don’t hesitate!”
Only then did the clan leaders realize the situation was dire.
Luo Yan felt relieved, then directed energy into the Destruction Tower, shouting, “Open!”
Suddenly,
The Destruction Tower erupted with dazzling light, a vast beam shooting up to the Kunlun Realm’s zenith, releasing a colorful ripple effect like water waves.
If one looked down from the outer space at that moment, they would be astonished to see the planet shrouded inside a hazy tower, appearing to be divided into seven layers!
“Everyone, fight your own battles now and ensure the smooth operation of the Destruction Tower!”
Having said that, Luo Yan led a group of elites hastily toward the seventh connection point.
The other clan leaders didn’t dare delay either, taking their respective teams to guard the other connection points.
As long as the energy at each connection point was fully charged, they could trigger the final step of the Destruction Tower, instantly annihilating this advanced world of the sacred path!
By then, even if the Creation Saint made a move, it would be futile!
“What are you plotting?!” Empress Fuyao sensed this strange phenomenon and felt an uneasy premonition rise in her heart.
“We’ve come a long way to bring you a surprise,” said the Yuzhu Clan Leader, pausing with a cold smile. “Soon, you will formally bid farewell to this world!”
Vroom vroom vroom~
At that moment, the seven connection points throughout the Kunlun Realm were gathering energy, creating a spectacle akin to seven stars aligning.
“What is this?!”
An uneasy aura filled everyone’s hearts, and the beings of the five major realms felt a sense of impending doom.
In the celestial void,
Luo Wuliang and Elder Changsheng were locked in a fierce battle.
Upon seeing the Kunlun Realm enveloped in that pyramid-shaped anomaly, Luo Wuliang’s eyes lit up with joy.
Thinking to himself, “It worked!”
Elder Changsheng felt a chill down his back, solemnly stating, “That thing is unusual!”
He had a bad feeling that if Luo Wuliang succeeded, the entire Kunlun Realm would face an irreversible cataclysm!
However, he felt powerless to stop it; he was already being suppressed by Luo Wuliang, struggling just to fight back, let alone save the Kunlun Realm.
Elder Changsheng’s heart sank deeper, his expression flashing with urgency.
Boom~!
The celestial void trembled.
Elder Changsheng staggered, blood trailing from the corner of his mouth, his aged face twisted in pain, a horrifying gash now marring his arm.
“Fighting me while distracted is a grave mistake!” Luo Wuliang roared, thrusting his spear down fiercely, exuding an overpowering aura.
Clearly, he had the upper hand, especially with Elder Changsheng in a state of unease; his advantage was nearly insurmountable!
Meanwhile,
A grand and authoritative voice echoed as if arising from the depths of the cosmos, reverberating with an air of command in the Divine Court:
“All cultivators of the Saint Ancestor Realm, heed my orders and immediately support the Kunlun Realm! No mistakes allowed!”
That was the voice of the Divine Court’s Lord.
Seeing the situation in the Kunlun Realm, the Chaos Emperor was anxious but preoccupied with the Yin Emperor, unable to intervene directly, thus he dispatched orders to the Saint Ancestor powers beneath him.
To him, they might seem like ants, but in such critical times, these “ants” still held significance.
“What? The Emperor wants us to support the Kunlun Realm?”
“This phenomenon has never been witnessed before!”
“Should we go or stay? It feels like the situation is incredibly complex!”
…
In the Divine Court, the Saint Ancestor leaders were uncertain and hesitant.
On one hand, it was evident to all that the Kunlun Realm was becoming a large meat grinder, likely threatening even the Saint Ancestors. On the other hand, they had offended too many powerful figures, those who had a significant voice within the Divine Court, and they feared being targeted if they chose to assist.
The key issue was,
Who would dare go against the Divine Court Lord’s orders?
If they disobeyed this time, they would inevitably face the consequences afterward. Who could bear such severe repercussions?
Didn’t they see how the Bright Clan Leader, Situ Tian, was wiped out for just one disrespectful word?
That horrific scene still lingered vividly in their minds!
“Since it’s the Emperor’s command, how could we possibly refuse?”
In the Endless Void, the Dao Lord stepped out from a mist of chaos, crossing multiple star domains straight to the main battlefield to engage Luo Wuliang.
At the same moment, the Buddha Emperor, as the second strongest under the Divine Court Lord, also had to set an example.
The Lord of Ten Thousand Swords and others quickly made their moves, joining the encirclement.
An uncanny phenomenon occurred.
Even with the involvement of these Saint Ancestor powerhouses, Luo Wuliang still felt no pressure, as if they were nonexistent.
Seeing this, Luo Wuliang’s expression changed, then suddenly he realized something, a knowing smile curling at the corner of his lips.
Heh, these old foxes were just pretending to put in effort!
They weren’t genuinely trying to help; they were merely going through the motions!
If one thought about it, the reason behind this was quite simple.
After all, Ye Junlin had slaughtered the ten great geniuses of the Supreme Rankings, effectively offending the top powers of the ten worlds within the Divine Court.
He had enmeshed himself in a sea of blood!
In such a scenario, how would the high-ranking figures from those ten worlds be willing to help the Kunlun Realm through its crisis?
What a joke!
At this moment, under the pressure from the Divine Court Lord, they had no choice but to make a show of support to avoid being blamed afterward for inaction.
Thus,
The most absurd scene in history unfolded.
Under the siege of the most elite experts from the Divine Court, the strongest of the Nine Nether Realm could still move about freely, as if he were in total control.
Perfectly demonstrating the idiom: “Make a big show of strength while dealing minimal damage!”
Everyone was well aware, cooperating with one another.
Luo Wuliang also discreetly held back on exposing the charade; this was the best battle he had fought, nearly all of them were holding back!
The only one truly going all out was Elder Changsheng, who bore the brunt of the pressure.
The addition of these guys not only failed to lighten his load but added frustration!
“Are you guys done playing? You might as well sit this one out!” Elder Changsheng’s body was riddled with injuries as he couldn’t help but shout in anger.
“Amitabha Buddha, why the anger, benefactor? We have come to help you!” The Buddha Emperor said compassionately.
“Hehe…” The various leaders exchanged taunting laughter, all fully aware of the unspoken agreement between them.
Elder Changsheng fell silent, his face growing darker than a thundercloud.
The hoe gripped tightly in his hand trembled slightly.
At this moment, he really wanted to take this bunch of despicable bastards and bash them one by one!
