Chapter 953: SCR Summit,Announcing To All
The Greater Timelord entity's eyes showed no sign of changing from the incoming thrust, its eyes incomparably calm as it lifted its hand outwards, mustering its strength to push through the spatial restraints, and reaching for the halberd's shaft.
Wu Baozhai's eyes widened slightly, but she refused to hesitate as she pushed forward with greater strength. Her meridians pulsed with astral force as it was pumped into her halberd, and her physical body showed signs of cracking as her hand wielding the halberd had web-like cracks on her skin.
The 2nd Grand Transformation was an extremely powerful art, essentially igniting the Imperial Heaven Aura to its limits, and granting the user unfathomably higher standards of power. However, it not only exhausted the Imperial Heaven Aura but without a refined Imperial Heaven Physique, it places unimaginable pressure on the body.
If the entity could block this strike, she would be vulnerable to a counterattack, likely resulting in her instant death. Yet she was not one to retreat and pressed forward without looking back.
Xue Yifei's violet eyes gave off a demonic glint as she formed a few hand-seals. Suddenly, the Spatial Prison's silver color was dyed violet, and the entity's expression, for the very first time, changed as its internal composition became corrupted, its innate energies grew sluggish and distracted, instinctively fending off the infectious demonic force.
Wu Baozhai was briefly stunned by the change. She didn't let it change her course of action, however. With the grace and dominance of the Monarch, with the starry heavens above her, she followed through as the tip of her halberd pierced the violet prison and into the forehead of the entity!
BOOM!
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtAn explosion once again erupted that sent energies of all types into chaos. A flourish of multicolored lights erupted!
When all settled down, the observers' eyes widened and their jaws nearly dropped. Wu Baozhai, with her robes fluttering against her figure, accentuating every graceful and domineering curve of hers, held her halberd with the pommel stabbed into the stage. Atop the bladed edge was the balaclava-wearing entity's head, completely detached from its body!
They did it!
THEY DID IT!
The two girls had triumphed against a Greater Timelord at the Gravity Emission Phase. No one believed it! How could they? This was a feat that Chosen would have difficulty accomplishing, let alone these two young women. While one was a Saintess, she was not declared a Chosen by San Luoyang's voice! As for the other, she was a Sect Master of an arrogantly named force that no one had heard of until now.
That final burst of power from Wu Baozhai brought fear into the hearts of some Starlords, an extremely difficult feat for a Gravity Emission Phase expert!
An elderly Demi-Mortal Lord level expert of incredibly high renown spoke out, his voice carrying throughout the observing area: "The new generation will always surpass the old."
The new generation will surpass the old! Brilliantly said! And while some might have mixed feelings about this, they were unable to disagree when two women that had only recently made a name for themselves in the last few years exceeded the vast majority of Gravity Emission Phase experts of their generation. As for themselves?
Which Starlords, Timelord, or Ascended being had the confidence to declare that they could take down a Timelord at the Gravity Emission Phase? Even Chosen standards weren't so frighteningly high! For Gravity Emission Phase Chosen, at most, they had to fight against a Realmlord for a set period without defeat. But killing and resisting were two very different concepts.
"The Everlore Association must be using this as a justification of Chosen standards in the discussions," Lin Xianxei couldn't help but mention with a sigh. She truly had to say that Wei Wuyin's Neo-Dawn Eclipse Pill and the Everlore Association's Ever-Domain Pill changed the entire layout of talent and strength.
The greatest advantage of Realmlords was their Worldly Domain, but these two girls had artificial Domain Seeds that could nullify this advantage, putting to the test skill, cultivation methods, and weaponry. It eliminated a crucial difference in cultivation.
"The Saint Cyclic Renewal Summit had to happen," Lin Xianxian echoed her daughter's thoughts and said. This summit didn't just need to happen, it had to. The world needed to know the advantages that a Worldly Domain pre-Realmlord granted to elite Chosen, Saintesses, and Heroes.
And just this third battle had accurately shown how terrifying the gap had shrunk. Even two stages were nothing for a Saintess and a no-name, and both were under a hundred years old!
Xue Yifei formed a hand-seal, and the silver dragon dissipated into motes of spatial force. She slowly flew towards Wu Baozhai, landing beside her with an inquiring gaze.
This girl was extremely terrifying when she launched that attack. Wu Baozhai unleashed power that rivaled a casual strike from Anu. How incredible was that? And her body hadn't exploded! She couldn't fathom how she cultivated such power.
Wu Baozhai's breathing was heavily labored. She was extremely exhausted, and her energies had sunk to an all-time low. She had invested everything she had into that strike and then some. So much so that her manifestation had already vanished.
She looked at Xue Yifei. With a faint smile, she genuinely said: "Good work."
Xue Yifei was startled for a moment. From the moment she met Wu Baozhai, she knew that this girl was bound to be her greatest rival amongst Wei Wuyin's Valkyrie. She didn't compare herself to Su Mei, as that girl was someone Wei Wuyin trusted with his life and soul, and she lacked any ambition.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmHowever, Wu Baozhai and herself were former members of Imperial Clans and understood the taste for power and authority. There was no way they would not try to grasp it since Wei Wuyin, their leader, didn't care who ruled. She had a solid understanding of his heart and knew that while he cared about legacy and territory, he didn't care about ruling others. His gaze seemed to always be set beyond.
Since Wu Baozhai said those words, she revealed her smile, "You too."
The two stared at each other for a long while, knowing this was going to be the beginning of their race against each other. But they calmly accepted the basking glory of their united victory, looking upwards to see the shocked, amazed, and desirous eyes of countless above.
Wu Baozhai lifted her halberd. Then, she smashed the pommel against the stage!
Boom!
The head dissipated into light that sprinkled across their figures. The two women painted an exceptionally beautiful image that few would ever forget in their lifetime.
"I am the Eternal Monarch Sect's Sect Master, Wu Baozhai. REMEMBER THE NAME!" With boundless imperialistic might, Wu Baozhai loudly announced for all to hear. The expressions of many changed, and while a few were riled up by her announcement, others were obsessed with her courage.
Xue Yifei could feel the fiery arrogance within Wu Baozhai's tone, declaring to these Ascended beings, elites, Chosen, and experts that her name should be remembered!
As for her, Xue Yifei didn't feel the urge to echo her actions. It would just be as if she was copying her. So she merely shook her head, glanced at the empty box that lacked any companions of hers, and flew towards the Void Gate with an emotional gaze.
Wu Baozhai stayed for a few seconds before she followed along, mustering whatever she could to push her through the Void Gate with dignity. As she looked at the Void Gate, she was expectant of the benefits that San Luoyang alluded to in his original message. Moreover, her heart raced as she thought of meeting Wei Wuyin again.
It's been so long.
The two soon vanished into the Void Gate while the crowd was still in awe at their united victory.
