BXBX NOVEL Chapter 711 - Massacring Sword Intent
Chapter 711: Massacring Sword Intent
Stopping in his footsteps, Zong Shou was in deep thought.
He didn’t fear Dagu Temple as he could destroy them with a flip of his palm. He was worried more about how many Spirit Realm Experts Daoling Vast Habitat had sent over? Did Wu Xu set up a trap here for him?
The Art of War mentioned: if the enemy looks weak they might actually be strong and when the enemy looks too strong they might be weak instead.
However, they could also be flipped over, there was no fixed way to use troops.
Since Wu Xu could become the Daoling Vast Habitat Head, even if he wasn’t good at war, he had to be an intelligent person.
Zong Shou didn’t dare to underestimate him.
Although this wasn’t a battlefield, it was much more dangerous and cruel.
If he took the wrong path and gambled wrongly, he would lose everything. Not only would he die, but Gantian Mountain would also collapse.
However, why did he have to gamble? How many Spirit Realms they had and whether or not there was a trap had nothing to do with him. It didn’t matter whether he knew or not.
He scoffed coldly, turning to the east.
4,200 miles from here, Xiuyun Sect!
His trip to the Central Cloud Continent had just begun!
An hour later he was at Xiuyun Mountain peak.
Guanyuan stood above and yawned, listlessly looking at the sky in the distance.
This was the Cloud Viewing Platform, 5,000 feet taller than the peak of Xiuyun Mountain. It was one of the central pillars of the Spell Formation and allowed Grade-4 Spirit Master disciples to look out for 3,000 miles in any direction.
Within 1,000 miles, they could see through any illusions and tricks.
This was because the area nearby was where the Demon Path was strong. A few thousand years ago, they had clashed constantly with the Demon Path, using all kinds of methods against them, which was why there was such a well equipped Spiritual Formation.
Normally, just 10 Grade-4 disciples were enough.
However, this morning it was suddenly increased to 50 which was 5 times more...
Gongyuan was a Grade-5 Spirit master, an Inner Sect disciple of Xiuyun Sect. He didn’t need to participate in this, but for some reason his Seniors grabbed him over.
He was so tired today because just yesterday he had gone Out of Body.
He was training his soul, which was why the damage to it still hadn’t recovered. He would need several days rest to return to normal.
If he knew this would happen, he wouldn’t have cultivated all night! Also, the Mountain Inspector Head was taking revenge on him! He shouldn’t have offended him last time.
He cursed in his heart, but he didn’t dare to let his guard down at all.
He maintained the restrictions and talismans around him as he carefully searched all around.
This formation could view 3,000 miles away, but it was still just viewing.
Not all the disciples who used it could see everything within the 3,000 miles.
He was fully focused here, but beside him he could hear the voices of the other disciples.
“How weird, since decades ago when we forced back Demon Sunflower Sect, this is the first time we faced such a huge enemy...”
“Who is the opponent this time?”
“It is okay for me to tell you all this. I heard that it is the Donglin Monster King Zong Shou! An hour ago Guanling Sect, Wuwei Sect and two others were wiped out by him...”
“Zong Shou? I heard about him, he is called the Sword Monster. The top of the Sword Path, able to fight one against a thousand. But, isn’t our Taoist Faction attacking Donglin? Why is he so free to come over?”
“Four Sects? What a joke. Guanling and Wuwei are just some small sects!”
Gongyuan continued to look while he listened on. His brow rose up, Monster Sword Zong Shou?
The name was like thunder to the ears. During these few years it spread through the Cloud World.
Suddenly, the area in front of his eyes shook. He thought that it was an illusion and didn’t care much. However, just as he magnified the weird movement 50 miles away, he saw someone walking over.
“This person destroyed four sects alone?”
“Scoff! So what if he comes? Guanling and Wuwei Sects can’t compare to us! Sect Leader entered the Intermediate Spirit Realm, forming a Lightning Element Body...”
These words entered his ears, but he had already stopped paying attention to them.
When these illusions were broken, he saw the true situation dozens of miles. He only felt his heart tighten.
This person was wearing a gold shirt, there was a green mirror hanging on his head. Behind his back was a 30,000-foot Giant Lightning Wings...
Illusionary Heart Mirror!
Gongyuan knew that the green mirror was definitely the spiritual item that the Sky Fox Race used to shock the Cloud World.
Right away he activated the warning spell. The bell sounded out and shook the entire mountain.
In just a moment, the teen ahead showed no signs of covering his tracks.
The Black Wings stirred up the dark clouds and covered the sky. The entire Xiuyun Mountain was covered in energy explosion noises.
These were the sounds of the protection formation breaking. The sword suppression was something that even this Spiritual Formation couldn’t block.
Gongyuan sat on the ground, unable to get up at all. He could only use his strength to maintain this part of his Spell Formation and inject all his Soul Power into it.
In front of him, the other disciples all sat down on the ground, unable to support it. Beneath the stairs, the Grade-3 disciples were ashen white and suffered heavy injuries.
At that moment, it was like a catastrophe had descended.
Gongyuan’s eyes constricted. Just at that moment, several people flew out of the mountain peak. His eyes lit up, recognizing that they were the Sect Leader and four Grade-9 Elders. They all used their soul bodies to charge into the air.
“How bold!”
The shout was like thunder shaking the sky. The entire Spiritual Formation was activated and instantly stabilized. A giant sword formed above. A purple-robed Taoist in the middle had numerous lightning glows shining around him.
Gongyuan was delighted and recognized that it was the Sect Leader. It was also the Extreme Purple Lightning God Disaster Technique, a Grade-9 Earth Crushing skill.
The Giant Sword was also formed from the tens of thousands of Xiuyun Sect disciples injecting their True Qi into it, Xiuyun God Slaying Sword!
When it was complete, even a God Realm Expert could be slain!
In the next instant, Gongyuan heard a Dragon roar and then a white Sword Light slashed in the sky!
Looking out he only felt that it was extremely sharp. Like the user, domineering and barbaric...
It ended in an instant, the moment he was slightly startled, the Sword Light had already disappeared.
A sharp clang reverberated through the sky.
Gongyuan was stunned. The Sword Light seemed really sharp, but it didn’t cause much damage to Xiuyun Sect.
Beneath the platform, all the disciples were perfectly fine. The Sect Leader and the four Elders were still standing in the air.
No!
Thinking back, he thought about where the Sword Light had slashed toward. His expression changed and he was barely able to stand up as he looked below.
Then, there was a crisp crack as the entire mountain body started to shake, becoming more and more intense.
The Spiritual Formation collapsed and all the restrictions shattered.
Gongyuan’s face was ashen white and his face was filled with shock.
The sword not only caused the entire mountain body to be broken, it even destroyed the foundations of the mountain protecting Spiritual Formation.
There was an explosion above. Zixin charged at Zong Shou with the vast lightning snake.
He entangled with the 30,000-foot Lightning Wings. The snake flashed and then an explosion erupted, shaking the sky.
In the blink of an eye, the Purple Light fell down like a shooting star. What followed was a sword flood! A storm-like sword wave stabbed down!
It riddled holes in the mountain body that was sliding down.
Master!
Gongyuan’s eyes were filled with despair. In the next instant, he saw Zixin appear beside him. He was still a physical body, which was why he didn’t look like he was in as bad a state. However, the light in his eyes was dimmed.
“Today is a huge calamity for our Xiuyun Sect! The Vast Habitat can’t save us in time.”
“I was too careless to draw such a calamity to our sect...”
While he said this, he patted Gongyuan’s body and the space around twisted.
“Zong Shou’s Sword Path is invincible under the Celestial Realm! If he breaks his Heaven Barrier and enters the Spirit Realm, no one in the Cloud World can stop him. However, those Vast Habitat people will worry about him, it has nothing to do with you. Don’t take revenge. You merged Spirit with Martial Arts at fifteen. Like Zong Shou you have a huge future. In the future, if you have some skill, you can recreate our Xiuyun Sect. Remember to not trust the Taoist Faction Sects, not even that Daoling Vast Habitat...”
The Sword Light charged and stabbed numerous holes in the mountain. When the mountain body fell from tens of thousands of feet, it smashed into countless pieces.
Several scattered Sword Energy charged out, slicing off Zixin’s head.
Gongyuan’s eyes turned red. In the next instant, the space in front of him switched, after a Heaven and Earth turning, he was already in another place.
It was a desolate land, different from the apocalyptic scenes from just before.
He felt lost for a moment before his eyes were filled with rage and grievance.
He hated the Heavens for being blind, hated Zong Shou for being vicious, hated himself for being unable to notice and hated Wu Xu for being useless!
Above Xiuyun Sect, Zong Shou was deep in thought. He seemed to forgot about something...
Xiuyun Sect?
Wasn’t that where the person who was on the same level as the God Emperor came from?
Did he die this time?
If he didn’t, then it would be a waste.
Too lazy to bother, Zong Shou looked forward.
Who knows if it was because he killed too many, but the Nameless Sword in his hand was starting to shine dark red.
Like layers of fresh blood were flowing around the sword body...
It seemed like Hanxi wasn’t the only thing that loved to kill, his sword did too.
The more souls it absorbed, the sharper it got...
With a thought, he caused the Blood Energy on the sword to become thicker.
It was the Massacring Sword Intent, it wasn’t complete, but there was a structure to it.
Zong Shou subconsciously thought back to Li Yaling and also Tanqiu. When he used one Styx River Death Sword to kill his way all around...
Then, he shook his head, thinking to himself which sect he should go to next.
