Chapter 515 - 514: The Elegance of the Sword Saint

Chapter 515: Chapter 514: The Elegance of the Sword Saint

"Baimiao True Person has been severely wounded and fled, while Vajra Bull Demon has been slain!"

The nine great forces in the midst of battle received this news and instantly descended into complete chaos.

These two were definitely among the most powerful of the Seven Ancient Ancestors.

But now, one was injured, and one was dead.

Sword Saint Ning Zongtang, was now sweeping through the field like an invincible existence!

Su Guochang, Zhan Shanbao, and True Person Yang, were all shockingly perturbed at this moment.

"Why is this guy still so strong? Has his strength not declined at all in these forty thousand years?"

They found it hard to believe.

This was too strange.

After all, in that great battle forty thousand years ago, Ning Zongtang faced the suppression of many powerful fighters from Heaven Suppressing Ancient Sect.

Even if he hadn’t died in that fight, he should have definitely suffered heavy injuries — how could he possibly be as invincible as he was now!

"If Senior Brother Hu Yun doesn’t hurry over, we will surely die!" True Person Yang thought with a sense of panic and insecurity.

Meanwhile, Hua Yunzhang, who True Person Yang was fighting against, didn’t cease his assault at all, attacking ferociously.

The two were originally not far apart in strength, but with True Person Yang’s morale wavering, his power clearly began to falter.

"Huang Shan True Person, have you notified Flying Xuan Ancestor from your Qianyuan Cave Heaven?!" True Person Yang transmitted a message secretly to Huang Shan True Person.

"Hmm!" Huang Shan True Person nodded, his eyes filled with gravity.

That their sister Baimiao had lost to the Sword Saint, meant they had already lost this battle.

But they had a back-up, their last bit of confidence.

Both had used the Communication Jade Token to call for reinforcements from Fierce Battle Sect and Qianyuan Cave Heaven, the moment they sensed the tides turning.

"Calling for help because you can’t win?" Cao Jianchun snorted coldly and slew towards Huang Shan True Person with his dual swords.

The battle between Cao Jianchun and Huang Shan True Person was nothing short of spectacular, with closely matched abilities and ruthless moves. Every clash was fraught with danger and breath-taking to witness.

Boom!

As Cao Jianchun wielded his dual swords, Huang Shan True Person brought his hands together, and two huge mountains materialized in the void, smashing together to trap the swords in between.

Surging mana burst forth, intending to refine the swords.

"Hmm?!"

But at that moment, Huang Shan True Person’s body suddenly stiffened, his face turned pale, and an indescribable fear rose in his heart.

Ssssst——

A swath of Sword Qi slashed down, cutting Huang Shan True Person in half!

Blood sprayed across the sky.

Whoosh whoosh——

At the same time, Cao Jianchun’s dual swords shattered the divine mountains and plunged into each half of Huang Shan True Person’s body, nailing him in the void.

"Elder Ning!" Cao Jianchun looked at the black-robed elder who had struck without looking back and respect flashed through his eyes.

Truth be told, his battle with Huang Shan True Person was at a deadlock, with neither able to overcome the other.

But now with Ning Zongtang’s casual strike, Huang Shan True Person had been instantaneously slain.

Such strength was terrifying!

Who else but me!?

————

"Hua Tianqiong, you will never be my match!" Wen Shiyu said coldly after striking Hua Tianqiong with a palm, that made him spit blood.

Hua Tianqiong’s face was pale, staring intently at Wen Shiyu as he sneered, "So what?"

"Today, you will not take a single step into Emperor Immortal Sect Territory!"

"Baimiao True Person has fled, Vajra Bull Demon is dead, Huang Shan True Person is dead, and soon it will be your turn!"

Hua Tianqiong’s eyes held ferocity.

They were both terribly powerful, easily capable of doing two things at once.

While engaged in fierce battle, they also kept an eye on the overall situation.

Thus, they had a clear grasp of the current state of affairs.

Wen Shiyu’s expression remained unchanged, yet deep within his eyes, a solemnity emerged.

This battle was almost certain to be a failure for them.

With the appearance of the three ancestors of Emperor Immortal Sect, as well as Hua Yunzhang and Ning Zongtang, they were taken by surprise.

Now, with only their own strength, they absolutely could not break through Emperor Immortal Sect.

The only hope was the reinforcements from Fierce Battle Sect and Qianyuan Cave Heaven...

Because they were very clear that the two ancestors sent by Fierce Battle Sect and Qianyuan Cave Heaven were not the strongest, but rather the weaker ones.

Even the mightiest, Baimiao True Person and Vajra Bull Demon, were not considered the strongest within Qianyuan Cave Heaven and Fierce Battle Sect.

Within Fierce Battle Sect, there were four great ancestors.

Vajra Bull Demon was one of them, but his strength was likely ranked third.

And True Person Yang was fourth.

True Person Hu Yun was ranked second.

His strength was truly terrifying.

In the past, Hu Yun True Person had even damaged Hua Yunzhang’s Heavenly God Divine Eye, causing him to suffer from a lingering ailment.

Similarly, within Qianyuan Cave Heaven both Huang Shan True Person and Baimiao True Person’s strength ranked at the bottom.

Within Qianyuan Cave Heaven, there existed even stronger beings.

If they had also taken action, the situation today would naturally be different.

But now, this situation can no longer be salvaged, and all one can hope for is another battle someday!

With this thought in mind, Wen Shiyu wasted no time, reaching out his large hand, determined to take Hua Tianqiong hostage.

Hisss————

Then, Wen Shiyu’s head was tossed high into the air, followed closely by a spinning world, engulfed by darkness.

"Old Ning!" Hua Tianqiong exclaimed with joy.

A black-robed elder appeared, holding a sword in his incomplete hand, stepping through the void.

One sword, one head.

In the blink of an eye, aside from True Person Bai Miao who had fled with severe injuries, three people had died.

Vajra Bull Demon, True Person Huang Shan, Wen Shiyu.

Only True Person Yang, Su Guochang, and Zhan Shanbao were still struggling to hold on.

"We admit defeat!"

At that moment, the three were scared witless, daring not to continue the fight, and they chose to concede defeat directly.

They already knew that this Sword Saint from the Emperor Immortal Sect possessed invincible might.

If they continued to fight, their only path was death.

"Admit defeat?"

Ning Zongtang’s voice was hoarse, and his cloudy eyes were full of calm.

Having lived through many trials, his reason for surviving was surely not for revenge?

Facing these old enemies who had once trampled over the Emperor Immortal Sect, would he accept their surrender?

"If you were here to pay respect and challenge us, surrendering would indeed be acceptable."

"But you, are the enemies of the Emperor Immartial Sect..."

Ning Zongtang spoke slowly, calmly delivering his words.

Yet these words sent shivers down the spines of True Person Yang, Su Guochang, and Zhan Shanbao.

This old fellow, he didn’t plan to let them go!?

"Run!"

Without any hesitation, True Person Yang transformed into a golden light and immediately fled.

Su Guochang and Zhan Shanbao each escaped in different directions.

They were well aware that if they fled together, they would surely die.

But fleeing separately, each of them had a chance at survival.

They were all Saint Realm Great Powers; if they really wanted to leave, who could detain all three of them at once?

"Think you can escape?!" Lv Tiangang, Hua Yunzhang, and the others would not let them go and prepared to give chase.

"No need," Ning Zongtang stopped them.

"Brother Ning, we can’t let these guys get away," Hua Yunzhang said.

"It doesn’t matter, they can’t escape," Ning Zongtang said calmly.

But then Ning Zongtang raised his left hand, his remaining index and middle fingers forming a sword finger, pointing towards the sky dome.

Ning Zongtang softly uttered four words:

"Void Sword Condensation."

Hum————

The next moment, sword cries echoed from above the Nine Heavens.

In an instant, an earth-shattering scene unfolded above the Southern Domain sky dome.

From the depths of the sky, three clusters of sword rain descend, covering the sky and falling towards three different directions.

Millions of Flying Swords pierced through the air.

"Ah!"

Three screams were heard before the sword rain dissipated.

"Is that the Void Sword Condensation of Xuanyuan that kid...?"

Below, Ye Xuan stroked his chin upon seeing the scene from afar, a hint of appreciation in his eyes.

Indeed, as he said, Ning Zongtang, this old fellow, was quite admirable.

Both as a person and in strength.

Impressive.

That move, Void Sword Condensation, was actually a technique of the Xuanyuan Sword Emperor.

Clearly, Ning Zongtang had learned it.

And he had mastered its essence.

Given time, Ning Zongtang might well reach the level of the Xuanyuan Sword Emperor.

Of course, this would take time to accumulate.

Following Ning Zongtang’s Void Sword Condensation, the last three old ancestors also met their end.

Henceforth, of the seven ancestors who came to the Emperor Immortal Sect, aside from True Person Bai Miao who fled with severe injuries, the rest were all slain by Ning Zongtang’s sword.

And with the seven ancestors dead or fled, the Alliance Army of the nine major forces completely collapsed.

Countless people were fleeing.

Whether it was the Flying Immortal Sacred Land, Xuanyuan Sacred Land, or those from the East Desolation Great Domain like Purple Flame Mountain and Seven Killings Sect, all began to escape at that moment.
