Chapter 831: Pity the Forefathers Could Not See Me Now
Although they were curious to know, when they saw her near Kunwu Mountain, they were utterly dumbfounded.
What…what does she want to do?
Kunwu Mountain was lofty and sacred, covered with auspicious qi. The cultivators inside the Unsolved Mystery Sword Alms all became paralyzed with fear. A mighty oppressive power made their hair stand on end and their faces blanch.
Very quickly, the sect master was also alarmed and appeared with a group of higher-ups of the sect.
However, their faces also paled at the mere sight of the graceful figure hovering in the air. They completely lost their usual calmness as if they were facing a supreme ruler of the world.
A gravelly voice filled with authority resounded from the most mysterious forbidden area of Kunwu Mountain, “Everyone back down!”
Patriarch Cangzheng had also been alarmed!
Instantly, the entire sect was shocked beyond measure.
Patriarch Cangzheng was an old fossil who had lived for countless years, but more importantly, he was a Saint whose name was heard throughout the Ancient Wasteland!
However, he hadn’t made a sound for thousands of years. The fact that the graceful figure’s appearance could disturb him and force him to issue an order was enough to prove that she had a terrifying background.
Otherwise, how would Saint Cangzheng be alarmed?
The woman stood motionless, as though unaware of all this. As she swept her eyes across Kunwu Mountain, they glistened with a hint of melancholy.
Vaguely, she seemed to hear a burst of unrestrained and heroic laughter——
“It is a great pity that the forefathers can’t see me now!”
Back then, the man, dressed in a dazzling white robe, showed extraordinary promise and was filled with boundless enthusiasm. Once, he slashed through eight thousand mountains with a single sword and shook the Ancient Wasteland with his power.
But time had changed, and he was nowhere to be seen...
The woman sighed to herself before she continued onwards. With a flash, she came to a dilapidated thatched hut in the mountains.
The mountain defense formation of the Unsolved Mystery Sword Alms, which was claimed to be capable of taking down old monsters of the king stage, showed no movement at all.
As for the cultivators of the sect, they were all stupefied. Everything that was happening was too terrifying and beyond their imagination!
A sword sharpening shone brightly in front of the thatched hut like a mirror, emitting an unrivaled fierce sword aura.
“Fellow cultivator, please stop. That is the sacred land of the Unsolved Mystery Sword Alms, and we can’t allow prying.” Saint Cangzheng’s voice rang out, as both a reminder and a warning.
But he had never done anything to prevent the woman from entering the Unsolved Mystery Sword Alms, which suggested that even a powerful Saint such as him was still of two minds about what to do.
The woman ignored him. She continued to stand there in a daze, gazing at the dilapidated hut and murmuring, “Regretfully, all my acquaintances have scattered. Those who know me are little and few. Time has been squandered as I laugh at matters happening in the world…” Her low voice showed her loneliness and disappointment.
She stepped closer to the sword-sharpening stone, bowed her head and gazed at it intently. The smooth mirror-like stone surface seemed to reflect the outstanding figure that amazed the world for an era.
She couldn’t help, but stretch out her soft hand to stroke the sword-sharpening stone.
“Fellow cultivator, please stop!” Saint Cangzheng’s voice rang again, but this time it was filled with terrifying divine power.
Instantly, the entire Kunwu Mountain quaked and clouds scudded across the sky. A stifling pressure pervaded the area.
That was the wrath of a Saint. His one thought could alter the universe and move mountains and rivers.
From a distance, a layer of divine power had visibly enveloped the entire Kunwu Mountain. All the living beings within thousands of miles were shaking with fear and almost collapsed to the ground.
Even some Life Death Stage Kings shuddered at the divine power. That is the real power of the Saint Stage!
Could Saint Cangzheng from the Unsolved Mystery Sword Alms plan to take action against the mysterious woman?
The woman furrowed her brows next to the dilapidated thatched cottage as though she was a little annoyed. She gently swiped her finger across the air.
But a gush of sword intent soared up to the sky and down to the bottom of Kunwu!
Boom!
The Saint power that enveloped the world was blasted away in all directions before it crumbled with an ear-splitting rumble.
At the same time, Saint Cangzheng groaned in agony, but he immediately then cried out in surprise, “That’s the Eternal Sky Sword Slash! How come you know the secret inheritance of the Unsolved Mystery Sword Alms?”
But the woman continued to ignore him. She lightly rubbed the sword-sharpening stone with her fingertips, sighing with melancholy. “Wen Xuan, Wen Xuan, the world hailed you as the Great Emperor of Sword Dao, but so what? As you said, as time goes by, everything comes to nothing in the end!”
After saying that, she turned around and drifted away.
“Fellow cultivator, please wait a moment!” Saint Cangzheng cried out, realizing that the woman might be connected with Sword Emperor Wen Xuan, the founder of the Unsolved Mystery Sword Alms!
However, the woman was already gone, vanishing into the vast sky.
On that day, Kunwu Mountain was shaken, the Unsolved Mystery Sword Alms was filled with shock and the West Infinity World was stirred by the news about the appearance of Saint Cangzheng.
The old monsters of the king stage who had witnessed everything were still in disbelief. Even
Saint Cangzheng failed to keep the woman behind!
……
A magnificent rainbow pierced through the void, stretching endlessly between hovering divine phoenixes and soaring dragons. The grand and majestic phenomenon was as though an empress was traveling on a journey.
Every step of the ethereal woman teleported her across mountains, rivers and tens of thousands of miles in an instant.
Before long, she came to a boundary river. A mighty silver river roared down from the sky and galloped into the void before it poured into the boundless boundary river.
From a distance, the sky and the water seemed to be connected. It didn’t look like a mighty river but a boundless sea, acting as a boundary barrier to the world.
Within the boundary river, thunder rumbled, lightning flashed, and time and space flowed turbulently. Occasionally, a terrifying black hole emerged and produced a destructive aura that could swallow up everything.
This was the Boundary River, which separated the four great worlds of the Ancient Wasteland like a moat and obstructed the paths of countless cultivators.
Boundary River was regarded as one of the most dangerous and mysterious places in the Ancient Wasteland Domain.
Rumor had it that a Life Death Stage King tried to cross the Boundary River, but failed halfway and lost his life. It was said that the king was killed by an ordinary-looking red carp!
There were quite a few of similar legends so Boundary River was seen as a forbidden area that not even old monsters of the king stage would want to set foot into.
As the woman stood on the bank of the Boundary River, her clothes billowed around her, and her body was covered with divine streaks of light that looked like chains of order. Even if she was only standing there, the turbulent silver river current started to recede!
Rumble!
The river churned with a deafening rumble, while battle cries and the fierce clang of weapons rang in the woman’s mind.
Everything seemed to have returned to the beginning. The world was in turmoil. Everywhere were mountains of corpses and seas of blood. Gods and demons appeared out of nowhere and clashed between the nine heavens.
Swords and blades were intertwined with the divine brilliance of the great dao, and the gods and demons fought against the Buddha’s roar.
The sky had caved in and the earth had collapsed. Anyone swept into the battle wouldn’t survive, not even a top Saint!
It was tragic!
Later, the legendary sages appeared. They reached out their hands to pick the stars and the moon, and they struck the sapphire sky from the sides…
It was a doomsday-like scene!
That battle was also known as the Battle of Annihilation.
Since then, the Ancient Wasteland had been plunged into eternal darkness and silence!
“Those people back then probably didn't know that Ancient Wasteland has been turned into four great worlds and countless little worlds...”
After a long moment, the woman sighed and left.
Once the woman turned around, a pair of eyes popped up in the depths of the boundary river, watching her leave.
Finally, the eyes closed again and vanished.
……
Black Mirror Province.
“She returned from Boundary River and entered the Black Mirror Province. What exactly does she want to do?”
Many Life Death Stage Kings were trembling inwardly. Black Mirror Province was the territory of the Black Nightmare Sky Dog Clan!
The woman slowed her pace once she entered the Black Mirror province, as though she was searching for something.
However, her presence filled all cultivators in the Black Mirror Province with fear. Her supreme aura blotted out the sky and could be felt everywhere!
What did she want to do?
The woman made many influential figures of Black Mirror Province uneasy. Her making her way across the province was akin to a devastating storm sweeping across the province. No one would be able to remain calm.
Many ordinary cultivators went to their knees and started to pray devoutly.
Her divine powers were too terrifying.
A moment later, the woman appeared in front of Yunman Mountain.
Yunman Mountain was one of the strongholds of the Black Nightmare Sky Dog Clan in the West Infinity World, but also a top-tier land of treasure.
“Who—”
“This is bad!”
“Heavens!”
The woman’s appearance plunged the cultivators on Yunman Mountain into panic and turmoil. Commotion and chaos broke out one after another.
Very quickly, a group of big shots of the Black Nightmare Sky Dog Clan appeared and stared gravely at the graceful figure in the distance.
An unrivaled expert had appeared at their clan’s door. How could they not feel uneasy?
Moreover, although the other party was alone, she looked like a ruler of the nine heavens. The oppressive power she exuded was enough to suffocate even the high-level cultivators.
“Elder, can we ask what brings you here today?”
In the end, a Life Death Stage King from the Black Nightmare Sky Dog Clan drew a deep breath, suppressing his intense fear and panic, and stepped forward to ask a question.
The woman indifferently uttered two words, “Slaughter dogs.”
