The Sacred Ruins

Chapter 729: The Sword Wheel Sweeps the Whole World

Translator: Alsey Editor: Chrissy

The Great Deity roared loudly. This attack was too intense. Yaoyao’s grandfather’s fist was great and vast like a clear sky smashing down and hell capsizing. He struck the Great Deity’s right chest with frightening energy beyond compare!

This armor was known as Virtuous Heavenly Stone Armor and was forged from a variety of divine stones in the primal chaos. Its sturdiness was close to that of the mother gold’s and was one of the most precious materials in the world.

But now, the fist had penetrated this sparkling and translucent armor, making it crack and crumble before exploding. When the fragments of the armor flew up, they were as dazzling and glaring as crumbling stars.

Naturally, the most terrifying thing was the resurgence of energy that was pouring down in torrents as well. Space caved in and in a split second, a lot of meteors streaked across this region; they were all planets that fell as a result of being shaken so hard.

The Great Deity was truly an overlord figure in the cosmos. His lofty aspirations could clearly be seen through the fact that he considered himself to be a deity and had the world ‘great’ as his prefix.

But now he was severely injured. There was a bloody hole where his right shoulder was struck. Blood flowed out a short while later which made him seethe in anger. Murderous intent that was icy-cold and sinister flicked in his golden pupils that were larger than the sun.

In the midst of his roaring, a wisp of golden blood spouted from his mouth. That was the Deity Race’s blood essence; it contained the most terrifyingly complex runes. He rammed Yaoyao’s grandfather’s glabella with the intention to penetrate his brain.

Roar!

Yaoyao’s grandfather was letting out a low roar as well. What spouted out from between his mouth and nose was dense Yang qi. It was as though it was not from this world because the energy level was too high a level.

Divine patterns interweaved within his Yang qi that was condensed with the order of heaven and earth. It formed a barrier in front of him and collided with that mouthful of deity blood. Various rule runes bloomed and dazzled the cosmos!

In a split second, nothing could be seen. Endless divine splendor drowned the both of them out. To people around the world, this was a divine battle!

Bang!

After which, the divine mist cleared. Various energy mushroom clouds grouped together to form spindrifts and a storm arose. It was as though a vast body of water was bubbling in the cosmos; not only was it magnificently intense but it was splendid as well.

After this kind of ocean wave surged out, the neighboring planets exploded one after the other and turned into a fine powder. The energy that burst out between the duo was too terrifying.

The Great Deity let out a muffled groan. Blood stained the corner of his lips and there was a hole in front of his chest. His body was violently shaking, and he was frantically circulating his breathing technique as he seized the energy factor in the cosmos.

Other than that, blood was trickling done from one of his arms. His whole arm had almost been torn off and just a bit of it was still attached. They had confronted each other at close quarters just now. Yaoyao’s grandfather kept grabbing onto his right arm and almost tore it off altogether.

The Great Deity roared. He was known as a deity, but his opponent had actually managed to seriously injure him after attacking time after time and sent him flying.

That was because this kind of injury had already injured his evolutionary foundation. A battle of this level had various murderous techniques and could easily transmit to one’s spirit.

The Great Deity’s chest swelled and deflated as his breathing got urgent. Various known and unknown energy factors flocked over together in the cosmos and flew toward his injured body to mend it.

Yaoyao’s grandfather was relying entirely on a kind of instinct to battle. His whole body was covered in long, black fur and even his face was like that as well. What he was going through was too lamentable.

He was from the Yang realm and had experienced many hardships in life. In the end, he had another thing to mourn about—he had lost his granddaughter, a third-generation descendant who was favored by the heavens. He was the only one left. Even though he had lost his sense of self now, a few drops of bloody tears still hung on the corner of his eyes.

He let out a low growl and attacked again. A kind of obsessiveness and some kind of subconsciousness was controlling him. He wanted to avenge his heir and get an explanation for things.

“Old man!” The Great Deity had nowhere to run nor hide. He could only accept the fight because he felt his opponent’s speed. He was extraordinarily fast and definitely surpassed that of his own.

“Come, I killed your son and wiped your granddaughter out! Weren’t they both geniuses favored by the heavens? Yet I strangled them both to death! How are you going to deal with me?”

The Great Deity’s long and narrow golden eyes bore chilly intent. He hoped that the subconsciousness controlling Yaoyao’s grandfather would thereby be provoked and his emotions would violently fluctuate. Thus, it would be impossible for him to effectively control his intent to kill and battle.

That was because his heart was palpitating in fear of such a monster who could really kill him with his instinct alone in the end.

Kerchak!

In the process of facing the incoming attack, his right arm reattached itself and the wound on his chest was healing as well. This was what was known as a single drop of blood could cause rebirth. Moreover, it was the blood of someone like him.

The Great Deity was excessively stronger than the up-and-coming talented descendants of their race. Yaoyao’s grandfather’s Yangqi didn’t completely suppress him because various rules were still in his body’s control.

Clank!

He summoned his broken sword and held it in his right hand as he hacked at Yaoyao’s grandfather. Moreover, his body was moving around an ineffable orbit as swiftly as a divine fish that was moving its tail back and forth.

Bang!

At this moment, his energy was going wild; sword light was swelling explosively. He dodged Yaoyao’s grandfather’s intense attack and simultaneously ducked out of that mother gold chain’s way. He wanted to used his opponent’s lack of clear consciousness to attack.

Yaoyao’s grandfather’s eyes bore endless murderous intent during the crucial moment. He dodged the Deity Sword like a phoenix gorgeously wheeling about in the sky before swooping down for the kill.

In that process, the mother gold divine chain in his body flew up and changed the trajectory in which it was moving. This wasn’t a common weapon because it could change its direction at any time.

Clank!

The Great Deity was exceptionally cautious. He didn’t hesitate to damage his weapon again at the risk of its life. He jolted the mother gold chain away before runes blossomed in his palms and glabella at the same time. They intensely surged and drowned out whatever was in front of him.

Yaoyao’s grandfather’s arms shuddered unlike the phoenix that spread its wings. Immortal light shone splendidly as he shook the other party’s rune energy until it dispersed.

Bang!

When the Great Deity who was almost within reach used his law energy, a dragon’s tail suddenly appeared behind him and turned into an order whip that whipped toward Yaoyao’s grandfather.

This was his trump card!

This was his ichthyosaur physique. At this moment, a dragon’s tail appeared out of nowhere and suddenly attacked, making it impossible to defend effectively against it.

Roar!

Yaoyao’s grandfather roared. When he sensed danger, feathers appeared around his whole body, all of which were formed of energy. Just like a phoenix reaching nirvana, the feathers dropped in order to transform and become even more powerful!

As expected, the energy storm that erupted shook the cosmos’ starry sea with him as its core!

The Great Deity’s dragon tail that had turned into an order whip was jolted aside. Energy feathers poured down in torrents and filled the sky as it fluttered down, killing everything it entangled around. The Great Deity let out a dull groan because his tail was dripping with blood and almost broke off.

Kerchak!

Lightning flashed and thunder bellowed outside Yaoyao’s grandfather’s body. A large chunk of his Yang qi grew denser right away and as expected, he became even more powerful like a phoenix reaching nirvana.

His Yang qi constructed a dazzling armor outside his body. He resembled a resuscitating war god with the armor enveloping him.

He had awakened another kind of ability. This was the Yang realm’s divine technique. Originally, it could only be used when his will was intact, but he’d forcibly triggered it now!

After which, nine rays of different coloured sword light appeared outside Yaoyao’s grandfather’s body on his back amidst the clanking. They linked this starry sky and possessed an aura that was too majestic.

It was as though a true phoenix had spread its plume. After that, it hacked forth amidst the sound of fabric being ripped.

“Attack!” the Great Deity roared too. A powerful entity like he was at this realm was actually using secret techniques such as Deity Possession and Deity Summon in such a hurry. A golden image walked out of the void ineffable and merged with him. Golden bones flew over from the firmament and fused into his body.

Even though it was made out of energy and runes, it could condense in the void and come to him. This in itself emitted a sense of strangeness!

Chu Feng had encountered this kind of secret technique when he was initially engaged in a war with the son of a deity.

A powerful entity like the Great Deity was actually summoning that too. Not only was this strange, but it was rather frightening!

Bang!

The nine different colored sword light actually formed a sword array and turned into roulette and a sword wheel as it rolled forward.

This was truly as easy as crushing dry weeds and smashing rotten wood. It was a unique divine technique from the Yang realm that appeared in this cosmos.

The expression on the Great Deity’s face changed. He had exhausted all his means of countering. The two of them collided and immeasurable light burst forth, drowning the starry sea!

Boom, boom!

This was an intense fight at close quarters and a cruel collision. In the end, the broken sword in the Great Deity’s hand flew out with a clank. It was covered in cracks; an ultimate weapon was completely destroyed.

He even staggered back. The so-called Deity Summon and Deity Possession couldn’t block Yaoyao’s sword wheel, but rather it managed to hack his defense as it was. That was the law sword wheel!

The Great Deity was almost chopped in half at the waist. His body was also densely covered in wounds, all of which were so deep that his bones could be seen. The armor he was wearing completely fell apart and no longer existed.

This kind of attack consumed tremendous amounts of energy. As such, Yaoyao’s grandfather’s sword wheel darkened completely and dispersed, turning into nine different colored swords once more. They immediately pierced the cosmos and towered like pillars supporting the heavens!

Roar!

Yaoyao’s grandfather pounced, launching a deadly attack this time with the intention to tear the Great Deity to shreds.

The Great Deity who’d always been strong and considered himself to be a deity was trembling in his heart. He was afraid and didn’t dare to continue risking his life because he really wasn’t a match for Yaoyao’s grandfather. This was a fight to the death!

Regardless of whether he could be faster than his opponent, he still dodged at all costs so that he construct a wormhole and escape to the edge of the cosmos.

He wanted to converge with the other members of the alliance and attack this monster together.

He felt remorse in his heart. They were scattered at various thoroughfares and he’d been waiting for the saints to come out from the broken cosmos within the primal chaos to ambush Yaoyao’s grandfather. But he didn’t anticipate that a tremendous problem would appear far behind the front line instead.

This caused the direction they were aiming to be completely wrong. As such, those assisting him hadn’t arrived since the war started between him and Yaoyao’s grandfather. Evidently, those people were still on the way.

“But those people should have arrived!” A cold expression appeared in his eyes. He immediately knew that just like how he didn’t save the big shot from the Netherworld Race, there wasn’t anyone coming to save him at the first possible moment.

This kind of alliance didn’t have the slightest binding power. When they were attacking the natives on the declining planet, it was only natural that they could walk together. But when they encountered a dauntless person, each of them had their own schemes.

“Ahhhh!”

The Great Deity had just entered the wormhole when Yaoyao’s grandfather smashed space open with his fist just like that.

He spat out three large mouthfuls of blood essence that were burning. He was going to use his forbidden secret technique. He didn’t hesitate in increasing his speed at the expense of his injured body—all he wanted to do was break away from this ‘swamp of death’.

Whoosh!

However, Yaoyao’s grandfather’s battling consciousness had completely increased now and was much more fearsome than before. The mother gold chain in his body flew out. He had discerned that the Great Deity was going to escape in advance and had even calculated the direction in which he was going to escape. Yaoyao’s grandfather immediately cut him off in front and locked him down in a split second.

The Great Deity’s scalp went numb and his heart sank. If this monster got close to him, it definitely wouldn’t end well so he spared no effort in struggling against him.

What horrified him was that the mother gold divine chain reined itself into his body and crackled like it was going to melt him. The countless runes carved onto the mother gold sparkled and he couldn’t break free!

Bang!

Yaoyao’s grandfather used this as a pretext to get close to him, attacking him with his unrivaled fists.

The Great Deity confronted the onslaught at all costs. Runes circulated around him as he crossed his arms together while he spared no effort in defending.

Unfortunately, he couldn’t block it and in the instant that blood splashed, the Great Deity let out a blood-curdling screech as his arm got twisted. That fist penetrated his defensive light screen and entered his body.

Pfft!

This time, Yaoyao’s grandfather didn’t stop unleashing his trump cards. The sword wheel behind him combined once more, putting downward pressure on the Great Deity. The Great Deity was horrified as he was squashed beneath the sword wheel. His spirit left his body, sacrificing all of the energy in his body and warding off the resplendent light wheel that was about to fall on him.

Pfft!

Yaoyao’s grandfather attacked. This time, he tore his enemy’s right arm off completely. He put it in his mouth and proceeded to chew it right away.

After this arm left the main body, it actually turned into a dragon’s arm!

The Great Deity let out a long mournful hiss. He’d never experienced this sort of battle before whereby a fearsome enemy still wanted to eat him after the former had inflicted serious damage on him.

What he saw through the eyes of Yaoyao’s grandfather were the sun and moon exploding, the starry sky collapsing and a boundless bloody sea. He realized that that was bloody sea’s deep hatred within the other party’s subconsciousness. It was now executing his revenge!

He still was a little regretful. To emphasize again, he strangled Yaoyao and her father to death and was provoking the old man in front of him. His behavior was really speechless.

In the end, the time for revenge had arrived. Could it be that he was going to follow in the footsteps of the up-and-coming talented youngster from the Deity Race and be swallowed whole?

In a split second, that dragon arm of his was eaten. Furthermore, Yaoyao’s grandfather locked the Great Deity tightly and grabbed his other arm before proceeding to bite it right away.

“Ahhh!”

The Great Deity was really scared. He’d never seen this kind of terrifying opponent before. This was a truly ruthless stubble who was going to eat him just as he was.

“Fellow Dao friends, have you arrived? If you’re not going to attack now, when are you going to do so!?” he roared angrily.

That was because he couldn’t move an inch as he confronted the sword wheel in this manner. In the blink of an eye, his other arm had become a feast and was being eaten, revealing the dragon tail’s bone.

This scene could be seen from the special heaven eye the cosmos’ greatest platform alliance laid out. All the influential parties were alarmed to the point where their hairs stood on their ends; the shock they received wasn’t minor.

He was the Great Deity! Someone was actually going to eat him!

“Dao friends from the Deity Race, I’m here. We’ll kill this beast together. Earth’s old mysterious expert? He’s already lost his bearings and wisdom! Send him on his way!”

The experts from the Spirit Race who were at the heaven-illumination realm had arrived!

Even further away, a pair of indifferent eyes that were like two blood suns bearing emotions to obliterate humans swiftly opened. He was Wei Xilin, the commander of the Xilin army during that time. He was now a heavenly-illuminator and had personally rushed over.

However, he hadn’t traveled far and didn’t attack in the first instance, but rather he was gazing at the depths of the cosmos.

“Monster, I sent your heir off on his way at that time. I’m going to kill you today, too. I’m not going to leave a single one behind because I’m going to eliminate all of you. You dare to go against the natural order of the world alone!?” The Spirit Race’s heavenly-illuminators had arrived as they attacked Yaoyao’s grandfather’s head.

Womp!

However, the void suddenly split open at this very moment. An extremely handsome man appeared; his face was pale, and his head of silver hair draped over his shoulders. He stood on a copper coffin with a Star-studded Whip in his hands. He swung it and a loud bang could be heard when he smashed forth with it.

It was too sudden. He was a saint who used domain techniques. He had suddenly appeared without alarming anyone before. He whipped the big shot from the Spirit Race’s head with the Star-studded Whip in his hands so badly that his opponent coughed out large mouthfuls of blood. His opponent was sent flying, too, and his body almost exploded.

“Grandfather!”

There was still a young girl who had the world’s spiritual wisdom amassed within her in that copper coffin. She trembled as she called out with hot tears in her beautiful eyes. She was Yaoyao, and she had returned as well!
