Divine Brilliance - Chapter 1135
Chapter 1135: Demon Shadow Appears
The blade light flashed and was coincidentally obstructed by the energy meridians of the 100,000 Qin Cavalry. As a result, it was unable to continue.
It fell like a streak of lightning and pierced right in front of a corpse general.
The latter’s body was covered in black flames and he roared out. The blade attack was forcefully retracted and deflected to block the flying knife.
However, the blade slowly sunk down and drew an unbelievable trajectory. Then, it accelerated and pierced the black flames, body-protecting energy, armor…
It then pierced through the body along with a large piece of flesh and blood and a piece of crystal that charged out from his body.
The blade was really sharp, and even after piercing one person, it didn’t stop.
It continued to pierce for 10,000 feet. Several hundred black-armored cavalry’s bodies were pierced before it finally stopped.
However, the Muluo Leaf Knife which could have been retracted using the mother knife also couldn’t take it anymore. The blade body scattered and turned to dust.
In front of the cavalry formation, the corpse general whose body was pierced by the flying knife looked at his chest in disbelief.
In the black flames, his body along with his mount had turned to ash.
Zong Shou’s knife directly shattered its core. Those Celestial Slaying Knife patterns directly slashed the reason why it continued to live in the world!
After the general died, the 100,000 cavalry under him halted.
Lin Xuanxuan also reacted really quickly, tossing another blue spiritual flame down.
Another ball of freezing energy and an ice ring-like thing spread out. Once again it froze thousands of iron cavalry in the ice layer.
This time, including those two corpse generals, they were unable to struggle free and were sealed as per before.
At this moment, Yuan Wushang looked at Zong Shou in disbelief.
“I thought that your flying knife wouldn’t be useful at Celestial Realm, that there would be no need to fear it. Who knew that it would get worse and worse? That is a Saint Realm!”
He subconsciously touched his neck. If that knife attacked him, he felt that apart from waiting for death, he couldn’t do anything else.
Zong Shou shook his head. It wasn’t Saint Realm. That corpse general was peak God Realm, and using the strength of the cavalry, he reached half a step End Realm.
Just now was when it was at its weakest.
Although the strength of the corpse general dropped due to the weakness in the formation, it was far above that of normal God Realm cultivators.
He was surprised at the fact that the blade instantly killed that person.
The Six God Defensive Knife and the Celestial Slaying Flying Knife were a perfect fit. It was like they were one.
He was able to pierce the energy around the general and the black flames due to the Celestial Slaying patterns he imprinted on the knife.
If a fake version of it with one percent of its power was already so strong, what would happen if the true Celestial Slaying Knife Energy was in his hands?
He really didn’t know why Mingri Xuen would pass the item to him? Did he really want to help him, or did he not know the mysteries behind the diagram?
“This knife technique is amazing! At that moment, I actually felt threatened.”
Temporarily solving the danger, Lin Xuanxuan’s expression also became weird.
Zong Shou was really someone worth envying and hating. However, with such a knife technique, his combat strength was far stronger than she expected.
“How many of such flying knives can you use today?”
Zong Shou estimated and said honestly, “Around nine but after four I would need to cultivate and recover energy.”
At this moment, he had 10 of these knives which he used the Six God technique to nurture.
After using one, he was left with nine. He looked towards the jade lamp. The flames within were left with five.
In other words, they could at most last for a short while only.
Although this altar was just a staircase in the south, it was the same to destroy the other altar in other directions. It was just that the restrictions here were much stronger. If this went on he wouldn’t be able to last until he could use the Unlimited Buddha Body.
Luckily, a day had passed and the three threads of Celestial Energy in his body had recovered and could be used once more.
Lin Xuanxuan frowned too. She didn’t place much hope in the Buddhist Faction. At least four more hours were needed for the second core here to strengthen.
Did she have to use that final trump card?
Those Qi Cultivators didn’t even appear and these 100,000 cavalry had forced them to such a stage.
Lin Xuanxuan shook her head and laughed coldly, she looked into the distance, “All of you just sit still and do nothing! If we can’t hold on the few of us will leave. The Dragon Formation and the corpse army won’t be able to block us. The Qin Emperor will revive and Great Gan will retreat to the outer region. Common People’s path can also move to other worlds. I really want to see where else you all can flee to!”
If the twenty million corpse army here appeared in the world, the first to be attacked would be the 7,000 Sects and aristocratic families.
After a short silence, a few scoffs spread out in the distance.
Zong Shou saw that the endless corpse army had suddenly halted.
Strong spiritual energy waves spread over.
Zong Shou instantly relaxed and knew that someone had helped them to restrict the corpse generals and soldiers.
If it was just to deal with these million troops, the few of them were up to it.
Beneath the altar, 90,000 Great Qin cavalry remained. Like how a lizard dropped its own tail, it deserted the frozen cavalry, allowing those ice pieces to shatter under the combined attacks of Yuan Wushang and Chuxue.
After adjusting the formation, they continued to loiter around to find a chance. Three corpse generals appeared from the formation to become the vanguard. They were as strong as those three before.
However, these 90,000 feared Lin Xuanxuan’s ice flames and Zong Shou’s flying knife and they were much more careful. They seemed determined to wait for the Big Dipper Sword Soldiers to clear the restrictions first.
This was exactly what Zong Shou wanted. To him, the more time that was wasted, the better.
There were 30 minutes until the agreed time. Zong Shou cast aside his thoughts and formed many patterns and runes around him.
These were Buddhist Faction techniques that could strengthen the Golden Body that he remembered.
However, as he didn’t obtain the Buddhist Faction legacy and had seen it through Common People’s Path books, he wasn’t sure whether or not it was useful.
But because it was really dangerous, he had to go all out.
“Your Majesty, the artifact is formed!”
Shen Yuexuan’s voice spread over and caused Zong Shou to be stunned. Only then did he recall that Shen Yuexuan had stepped up and volunteered to craft a spiritual artifact for his Saint Fire Silver Ants.
He was also really curious and he looked over.
Along with him opening the furnace, a ball of light charged out.
The spiritual artifact had no consciousness and was unable to fly in the air. Shen Yuexuan used spiritual sense to raise it up and it landed in front of Zong Shou.
There were many three-inch silver pieces of armor and there were white wings on the backs which allowed the Saint Fire Silver Ants to strength their own wings.
Zong Shou picked one up and reached in with spiritual sense.
He instantly understood that the thick armor actually had many human-like meridians and patterns. It allowed the complete cycle of Dao Soldier techniques.
After the Saint Fire Silver Ants wore them, they could inject their strength in.
They wouldn’t be much different from Dao Soldiers.
“What amazing thinking…”
Zong Shou praised. This was only possible because his 72 ants were exactly the same.
If it was any other cultivator or beast, that would have been totally impossible.
Shen Yuexuan’s method was different from man to man.
He told Lin Xuanxuan to take over and help him block the corpse army. Zong Shou also recalled all the Saint Fire Silver Ants.
The armors were not only very easy to wear, but they were really beautiful too. Majestic and bright, just like the Saint Fire Silver Ants.
Their bodies were beautiful on their own and after putting on the armor, they seemed like the most pure and beautiful things in this world.
Their silver-white wings flapped and scattered silver light, bright light shining all around.
Su Xiaoxiao and Chuxue couldn’t help but look to the side, even if they knew that they were born from the vengeful energy of Heaven and Earth and were beasts that wanted to kill the most. They couldn’t help but be distracted and show love in their eyes.
Zong Shou’s lips curled up, thinking to himself that in this world outer appearance was the most important. He also spread out spiritual sense which made the ants scatter.
Just by looking, one could notice that their movement speed rose by 100%!
The few Silver Ants couldn’t adapt to the speed and were nearly knocked into the corpse army.
…the armor could be considered top Spiritual Artifacts, so naturally, they couldn’t be this effective.
However, as long as the ants were within 30 miles of each another, there would be spiritual energy sense between then. The 72 of them would be like one, buffing one another.
Zong Shou’s eyes lit up. This was as good as he expected.
The killing power of the ants should also have increased too…
Zong Shou watched on as the ants contacted the corpse army, and his eyes were filled with anticipation.
Lin Xuanxuan’s expression changed and she flew into the air.
A turtle shell covered in ancient words was raised above.
Light patterns landed and protected the altar.
Lin Xuanxuan struck the air, but then a hand suddenly reached over.
Her whisk broke apart and then her arm exploded!
“Daoxuan God Stealing Technique? Daoxuan Demon Lord?”
Lin Xuanxuan’s beautiful face instantly twisted.
