The Heavenly Saber Novel - Chapter 154

Chapter 154 Autarch Sword God
Each of the nine eyes of the Nine-eyed Heavenly Centipede was capable of emitting an innate divine ability. It was extremely powerful, and there was almost nothing that could withstand it.

Such a powerful divine ability could not be activated indefinitely. Every time it was activated, it would have to pay a price. Its eyes would be temporarily blind, and it would take a very long period of time for it to recover.

In other words, this kind of innate divine ability was its life-saving move, and it would not use it unless it was absolutely necessary.

In order to save the Heavenly Devil Ape, the Nine-eyed Heavenly Centipede didn’t hesitate to use such a trump card to save its life. It could be seen that it had risked its life.

Within the time everyone was imprisoned, the Heavenspan Devil Ape was not affected. Of course, it would not let go of such a good opportunity. It easily knocked over the Primordial Stone Tombstone above its head, and then launched countless punches at many experts.

After the fight, it no longer looked at the result and suddenly jumped up. It jumped out of the Heaven and Earth Smelt, and without turning its head, it took large strides outside.

It actually wanted to escape!

Ever since its birth, it had never chosen to flee. It had always been proud and independent, motionless like a mountain. However, this time, it was indeed powerless to fight against the human experts. It seemed to have understood this point, and it finally gave up the pride of the Ancient Demon Emperor and chose to flee.

After a single breath, everyone broke free from their restraints and was finally able to move freely. Countless fist shadows struck them head-on.

Everyone was shocked as they attacked one after another, resisting these attacks. Fortunately, there were enough of them. With their combined efforts, they managed to block these grand fist shadows. They were only slightly injured.

“Damn it, the Heavenly Devil Ape is about to escape. Quickly chase after him!” Everyone saw its enormous body running wildly outside and hurriedly chased after it.

If the Heavenspan Devil Ape wanted to flee, it would not be easy to intercept it. After all, its size was so huge that it was a hundred miles away. In just a few steps, it disappeared into the distance. If it had more time, it might have escaped from the Lianyun Mountain Range and entered a densely populated area.

Everyone couldn’t help but be anxious, “Hurry up and stop it. We can’t let it escape to a densely populated place. Otherwise, our lives will be ruined!”

They used their own methods to chase after him and attack the Heavenly Devil Ape. However, at this moment, it no longer fought head-on. It was actually extremely agile. Its enormous body jumped left and right, dodging numerous attacks.

A huge stone stele descended from the sky, blocking the way like a giant wall. However, the Heavenspan Devil Ape did not charge straight into the ground. Instead, it chose to turn around and flee to the side, its route uncertain.

Seeing that the Heavenspan Devil Ape was so cunning and was about to flee the Lianyun Mountain Range with a single step of a hundred li. Suddenly, in the sky ahead, a sword light cut through the void, slicing through a crack in the void.

A figure walked out of the crack in the void. It was an old man with gray hair. His expression was ancient and he wore coarse linen clothes. He looked very simple.

This was clearly a terrible old man. He was plain and indifferent, returning to nature, making people think that he was just an ordinary person.

However, it was this seemingly ordinary old man that caused the Heavenly Devil Ape’s body to pause. A trace of fear flashed through its eyes.

Even when it was trapped by the crowd, it had never revealed such an expression. It was extremely domineering and extremely confident, as if nothing in the world could stop it.

However, seeing this old man caused the Heavenly Devil Ape’s expression to change.

The old man simply stood there. He was extremely natural and merged into the world. He did not reveal much sharpness, but it seemed to resonate with the entire world.

Obviously, this was not a simple character.

Many experts flew over and saw the old man. After sizing him up for a while, they seemed to recognize something. They couldn’t help but pale in shock and cried out, “You … you are the Sword God!”

“How is that possible? How could the Sword God still be alive?” They couldn’t believe it.

The Sword God was one of the four ancient gods. He was as famous as the Beast God, the War God, and the Fire God. His strength was extremely terrifying. He founded the Sword Sect and was known as the Holy Land of the Sword Dao.

Since ancient times, there were countless people who used swords. They were like crucian carps that crossed the river, countless. However, no one dared to call themselves Sword Gods, nor did any sect dare to call themselves Sword Dao Sacred Grounds. Until this Sword God appeared in the sky, gathering all the great achievements of swordsmanship in the world, reaching the supreme realm, and finally being respected as the God of the Sword by the people of the world, it was indisputable.

The Sword God was a figure from ten thousand years ago. He disappeared thousands of years ago and never showed up again. This was why the world thought that the Sword God was dead. They never expected that he was still alive and appeared here. No wonder so many experts were so surprised.

“How could the Sword God still be alive? It must have been ten thousand years since then, right? No one has lived for so long since ancient times. Could it be that he has already reached that realm?” Someone was puzzled.

“Impossible! It hasn’t been 10,000 years yet. If you count it carefully, it should still be several hundred years away from reaching 10,000 years. It’s just a little short.” Someone said.

“No wonder. It hasn’t been 10,000 years. I’m scared to death. The 10,000-year limit will be the tenth lightning tribulation. The Sword God shouldn’t be able to survive it, right?”

“Who knows……”

The two Sword Saints of the Sword Sect looked at the Sword God with excited expressions. They immediately bowed their heads and said, “Greetings, Master Ancestor!”

“Get up.” The Sword God said calmly.

“Sword God, please take action to subdue this Heavenly Devil Ape.” Everyone said.

With the help of the Sword God, what could not be easily captured? This was the supreme expert of the Nine Tribulations. He was already comparable to the Heavenly Devil Ape. He wasn’t even afraid of its full strength, let alone only 10% to 20% of its current strength.

The Sword God nodded and looked at the Heavenly Devil Ape. He sighed, “You are the only one who has lived the longest. Back then, even Daoist Patriarch Wuji was immortal. Let me take you in today.”

After saying that, he stretched out two fingers and lightly pointed out. Immediately, a grand sword qi sprayed out and shot towards the Heavenly Devil Ape.

The Heavenspan Devil Ape punched out and collided with the sword light. With a “chi” sound, a huge wound appeared and golden blood flowed out.

“Alright!” Everyone applauded. Just a single strand of Sword Qi had caused so much damage to the Heavenly Devil Ape. Compared to the effects of so many of them, the Sword God was indeed formidable.

The Heavenspan Devil Ape stepped on the ground and absorbed endless profound yellow energy from the ground. Immediately, golden light flowed and the wound immediately healed, returning to its original state.

The Sword God nodded his head, “The Heavenly Devil Ape is indeed worthy of its reputation. The Xuanhuang Immortal Body is indeed formidable and extremely difficult to kill.”

Immediately after, he extended his finger and spat out 9,981 invisible sword lights. They wandered between heaven and earth for a while, and then instantly contracted. In the next moment, they merged into a bright sword light that was filled with a sharp aura, as if it could cut through everything in the world.

This bright sword light struck the Heavenly Devil Ape’s body, and a huge wound appeared. It was even more serious than the previous one, and it was bleeding endlessly.

The Heavenspan Devil Ape roared out in pain. Knowing that it could not defeat him, it turned around and fled.

“Void Sword Realm!”

The Sword God waved his hand. Instantly, boundless sword qi appeared between heaven and earth. It was densely packed and intertwined with each other. Finally, it formed a huge barrier, as if it was separated from the heavens and the earth, becoming an independent small world.

The Heavenspan Devil Ape was constantly attacking the Void Sword Realm. It wanted to break the barrier, but it was useless. It was completely unable to break through and was firmly trapped by the barrier.

Within the Sword World, endless sword lights shone, hacking into the Heavenly Devil Ape’s body, causing countless wounds.

The Heavenspan Devil Ape didn’t move like a mountain. It stepped on the ground, absorbing the profound yellow energy from the ground and recovering from its injuries. It seemed that those attacks had only been useless.

Even though the Sword God was powerful, he was able to suppress the Heavenly Devil Ape with every move he made, making it look extremely relaxed. However, if the Heavenly Devil Ape’s recovery speed was followed, it would probably not be able to kill it.

After all, he was a famous Heavenly Yao from the Ancient Era. The Overlord of the Earth was indeed not that easy to kill.

The Sword God said, “To kill the Heavenly Devil Ape, I’m afraid we still need to cut off its connection with the earth. Can the one from the Fire God Temple borrow the Heaven and Earth Great Smelt?”

The Fire Emperor Divine Sovereign hesitated for a moment, but in the end, he nodded and said, “Sure.” Then, he waved his hand and the divine furnace in his hand flew into the hands of the Sword God.

The Sword God took over the Heaven and Earth Smelt and threw it into the ground. The ground instantly turned into a sea of lava, trapping the Heaven-reaching Demonic Ape inside.

The Sword God himself took out an ancient sword and personally entered the Void Sword Realm, launching an attack on the Heavenly Devil Ape.

Many experts stood outside the Void Sword Realm, unable to see clearly what was happening inside. They could only faintly see sword light flashing past, and then the roar of the Heavenly Devil Ape could be heard.

“With the help of the Sword God, we should be able to kill him very soon, right?” Someone said.

“That’s right, it must be so.” They waited patiently.

One day, two days, three days…

A few months had passed, but the battle was not over yet. The Void Sword Realm was still in existence, and there was a faint sound of fighting inside.

The Sword God’s voice came from inside, “You guys disperse first. The defense of this Heavenspan Devil Ape exceeds my imagination. The Xuanhuang Immortal Body is almost immortal. It’s extremely difficult to kill. I’m afraid the battle won’t end so quickly.”

The experts exchanged glances before turning around and leaving.

A world-shaking battle had ended with the Sword God reappearing in the world. It was still unknown when the battle would end.

The news of the appearance of the Sword God quickly spread throughout the world. Countless martial artists in the world rushed over one after another with pilgrimage-like moods. They wanted to look up to the face of the Sword God, but unfortunately, they were all blocked by the Void Sword Realm. The people outside could only faintly hear the sound of “ding ding dang”, just like blacksmithing.

Just like that, the Void Sword Realm had always been there, and the battle had never ended. It was unknown how many generations had passed.
