Chapter 546: Restricting the Enemy in One Strike

Translator: Exodus Tales Editor: Exodus Tales

In Shenxiao’s mind, apart from rage, apart from hatred, apart from wanting to destroy everything, he was feeling more and more uncomfortable.

This collection of ants seemed unbeatable, a rock that couldn’t be smashed no matter how hard one threw it.

No matter how he struck, no matter what spells he used, there was nothing he could do.

Zong Shou had seemed totally restricted and suppressed by him, with no ability to fight back. However, like needles hidden in a blanket, every time he would use some new strength to turn the tide.

He could only raise his own strength to continue to suppress him!

The lightning wings behind that person’s back were already a full twenty thousand feet wide!

He also shielded the thousands of Blood Cloud Cavalry behind him! For some reason, it made Shenxiao feel a sense of exceptional danger, even in the depths of his soul. It caused his near-insensible mind to regain a bit of rationality.

How could this happen, how could this Zong Shou grasp halberd soul? Impossible, definitely impossible...

Next would be that pair of lightning wings. Why did they feel so dangerous?

He shouldn’t be afraid, right? He didn’t need to be afraid. Even if Zong Shou went all out, he could only reach the strength of of a peak Spirit Realm cultivator.

Why did he have to worry?

‘I have to kill this person, I definitely have to kill this person!’

“Halberd intent soul? What a Halberd Intent Soul Realm! As expected from the person who can wipe out my Mysterious Cloud Spirit Sect! In this world there is actually such a talent. That’s great. Killing you will be interesting! You were supposed to have a bright future. Maybe you could even have become a saint! Unfortunate, how unfortunate, haha...”

Saying several things, all of which missed the point, his eyes were filled with insanity once more.

He suddenly took half a step forward. The space around him instantly collapsed. Between the numerous space fragments, threads of blood energy surged continuously.

This was the vital energy he had left in the outer region. Even if Aokun tried to destroy it, there would still be some fragments that were under his control.

The suppression from heaven and earth was getting stronger and stronger, as though they were going all out to force him to leave the Cloud World.

However, Shenxiao wasn’t afraid. The moment that Mysterious Cloud Spirit Sect was destroyed, there was nothing that he feared anymore.

He only had one thought, which was revenge. Anything that stood in his way would be destroyed.

Hong!

The essence energy of heaven and earth swept up, and the Pinnacle Space Dome Formation couldn’t take it anymore and started to explode inch by inch.

Tiandou and Liehe, as well as the bunch of Fuling Sect disciples, all spat out blood, filled with bits of their internal organs.

Luckily, at this moment, a spell surged in from who knew where. It was extremely vast, causing this broken formation to recover once more.

It caused the astral wind of the area to dissipate all around.

Tianqi couldn’t help but clench his fists. He felt the intent suppression that was now ten times stronger, expanding and spreading.

The entirety of heaven and earth seemed to have been suppressed by this vast intent.

The cultivators under his sect had barely been able to resist, but now they were totally stunned.

Tianqi knew that those lower-grade disciples wouldn’t even be able to maintain rational thought.

‘Celestial Realm—that power has definitely broken through to the Celestial Realm!’

Then, was Zong Shou dead or alive?

The moment such a thought rose up in Tianqi’s mind, a man dressed as a monk who was hidden in the clouds frowned.

“This Shenxiao is taking it a little too far...” action

Spirit Realm strength. One could say that the Mysterious Cloud Spiritual House and Pinnacle Space Dome Formation were the reason why they were unable to reach back in time.

He himself had pushed to the border of the Celestial Realm, so it was hard for him to redirect the blame.

The other three people were all silent. The situation today was slowly exceeding their control.

“He actually grasped halberd soul intent. Why is this Zong Shou a Common People Path disciple? That sword sect leader has always been intelligent, why did his eyes deceive him this time...”

The old man in confucian robes frowned. Compared to the Common People Path, he would rather have this kid come from a sword sect with strength that could compete with the taoists.

“I actually don’t mind!”

That teen smiled, not bothered at all. Be it the Cloud World or the tens of millions of worlds in this region, the Heaven and Earth Path focused on balance.

If there was darkness, then there would be light. If there were righteous people, then there would be demons. If there was kindness, then there would be evil.

Since within the Common People Path there was such a talent, then within the Demon Path there would definitely be someone who could go up against Zong Shou.

These were the rules of heaven and earth. When the void of a region was opened up, this rule was already set.

And to him, be it righteous paths or the Common People Path, they were both enemies. This was why he didn’t really care which path Zong Shou was from.

“In my eyes this matter can be put to rest! If we allow Shenxiao to continue messing about, it will be tough for us to explain...”

The confucian and the monk didn’t speak, looking back at that green dress woman with a questioning intent.

The latter’s expression turned into a smile. “Between the three of you, how long do you think Zong Shou can last under Shenxiao’s hands?”

The moment she said those words, the teen understood her intention, and smiled. “So what fairy means is to wait a while more, so that this kid dies here?”

With Zong Shou’s halberd intent Soul Realm, when Shenxiao was at the Spirit Realm he would be able to stand against him, but once he entered the Celestial Realm, he wouldn’t even be able to last three breaths.

A cold intent appeared on the face of the woman in green. “If this person lives, I will feel really uneasy. It is better to let him die. As for the repercussions, I will handle them.”

The the monk and the confucian visibly relaxed.

That’s right, it is better if such a person doesn’t exist in the world.

Such huge shocks one after another, even the heavens would be jealous. This was too illogical.

To drag on for a few more minutes wasn’t so unreasonable.

Although they had made up their minds, the two of them felt slightly uneasy. Especially the confucian, who frowned.

He felt that it wasn’t right, but for some reason, he was unable to think of the reason why.

He only knew that Zong Shou was too calm, like he was allowing Shenxiao to continue to raise his power.

Shouldn’t he try to stop him?

The lightning wings, which had expanded to twenty-four thousand feet, were still storing energy and not attacking. The power of the Blood Cloud Cavalry was collecting and becoming more and more condensed.

Every one of them was extremely calm.

This was compared to Shenxiao, whose heart was going wild. When he broke through that level of power, that soul power unavoidably became chaotic.

Just fighting the suppression of heaven and earth used up close to 90% of his strength. Pretty much all his potential, all his essence energy was being forcefully sucked out and used to counter it.

To power the last blow which was of the Celestial Realm...

“Oh? That’s not right...”

Suddenly the confucian stood up, forgetting himself. He once again focused on those four thousand Blood Cloud Cavalry soldiers, who seemed a little different from before.

Within the cavalry formation, those stand-alone spirit masters, their spiritual senses and vital energy had merged into a collective.

At this moment, the sounds weren’t apparent but he could clearly sense the signs of the cultivator’s internal strength and soul power merging, creating this close to explosive strength increase!

“This is... spirit and martial arts merging into one!”

Suddenly, the confucian comprehended something.

So this Zong Shou had been saving some strength from start to finish!

He seemed like he didn’t have any strength to fight back, but actually he was forcing this Shenxiao to raise his strength, until most of it had been used up against the suppression of heaven and earth.

What evil and deep schemes!

The moment he said those words, he felt a deep aura suddenly blanked the area outside.

In a thousandth of the time it took for one to flick a finger, the aura had covered this part of the void.

A woman laughed out loud. “What a good show! I remembered that as the venerable of a world, you should view everyone in the world as the same and treat everyone fairly. What a way to do that! What do you all have to say for yourselves today?”

The expressions of the teen and the monk instantly changed. The woman in green’s face became devoid of blood.

Without hesitation, a spiritual light flickered and struck down towards Shenxiao. Only that old man sighed helplessly.

Pretty much at the same time, the surrounding hundreds of miles around the mountain turned dark. Even things several feet away couldn’t be seen.

Tianqi was shocked. He was unable to look, and even spiritual sense was unable to be spread out.

He could only feel that explosive and intense presence.

He could only think in his heart, ‘Celestial Realm cultivator, so it was actually so strong?’

Zong Shou, who was at the mountain peak, spat out a breath. He didn’t know who it was that had covered the heavens around this place, however at this moment it was good!

The lightning wings behind him turned into lightning currents and gathered on the halberd.

All the vital energy was being sucked over, and at the tip of the halberd appeared a dark point the colour of the void.

...This halberd was the Blood Cloud Cavalry spirit and martial arts merger! The One Origin Darkness Halberd!

Hong!

It suddenly exploded out. That halberd shadow struck at Shenxiao, who had crossed the Celestial Realm gates.

First the lightning currents clashed, and then it was a battle of vital and internal energies.

The halberd in Zong Shou’s hand stabbed into that chaotic internal energy and soul solely on feel, cutting within, seemingly piercing something at every moment.

Only when he was unable to continue, did the black hole dharma at the tip explode out.

He heard a tragic cry. An extremely huge and thick vital energy and essence energy, even soul power suddenly surged in from the halberd.

So much that Zong Shou’s body was totally unable to accept it, and he could only redirect it to the thousands of Blood Cloud Cavalry behind him through the spiritual network.

At this moment, he could feel that Shenxiao’s energy was being swiftly digested. He went from Celestial Realm to peak Spirit Realm to middle and then to grade-9.

Zong Shou’s heart was cold and he showed no mercy at all, preparing the next halberd, the One Origin White Halberd.

After endless darkness was unlimited light!

However at the last moment he was startled.

‘Eh?’

When the halberd pulled back, Shenxiao’s consciousness had totally dissipated. The remaining essence energy was also absorbed by him.

He only felt extremely confused. So this God Realm cultivator was actually so weak.

The monk was out of sorts. “Endless darkness, unlimited light! The one who caused the sign from the heavens is actually him...”

He was filled with indescribable happiness and unhappiness.
