Chapter 427: Saint Shengyuan Is in Danger
Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation
The two saints were fighting head-on and the situation was already perilous. However, Saint Shengyuan still needed to divert some spiritual power to aid the human cultivators of Kun City in resisting the battle’s aftershocks.
This was extremely unfair to an ancient saint like Shengyuan. Although this ancient city still had other myriad races, their numbers were far too few. The beast-headed ancient saint did not care about their lives at all, attacking without any restraint.
As long as he could kill all the humans, he would not hesitate to raze this ancient city that had endured since antiquity.
“Haha…” The beast-headed ancient saint sneered, his eyes filled with disdain as he arrogantly said, “That old fool has some tricks. However, how many more attacks do you have left? If you have no other trump cards, then sleep forever with the ants you protect today! You’ll be the first human saint to fall by my hand since I awakened!”
The beast-headed ancient saint was extremely mighty. His entire body emanated boundless radiance. The wings on his back seemed to tear through chaos itself. Holding the silver spear, he attacked once more.
The spear’s tip cleaved the firmament in two as if splitting apart heaven and earth. Even the chaos energy was slashed apart. The five elemental forces coiled around the spear like the power of Creation itself, exuding an aura of all things being born anew, regressing everything to its origin.
Boom!
Facing this peerlessly terrifying strike, Saint Shengyuan’s expression turned solemn. Even he did not dare underestimate this blow.
He formed seals with both hands. The dazzling golden sword illuminated all directions, rapidly rising to block the attack. The golden sword’s blade reflected a panorama of boundless mountains and rivers, majestic divine peaks piercing the sky, emanating an unparalleled divine might that almost seemed to surpass the limits of a saint, leaving people astonished.
Clang!
Clanging sounds of metal colliding loudly rang out. At this moment, everyone was nearly deafened, unable to hear anything. Although most of the might was blocked by the golden sword, just the sound alone caused countless to bleed from all seven apertures.
Fortunately, Kun City was shielded by an ancient formation, otherwise, likely none of those present could have withstood this.
After two probing exchanges, the two saints finally revealed their trump cards. The resulting shockwaves were terrifying as if piercing through the nine heavens. This was a catastrophe! A catastrophe for the human race!
With Saint Shengyuan’s fall, doom awaited the humans. Kun City was like a small boat amidst a boundless ocean, in danger of capsizing at any time.
“We can’t continue like this! Senior Shengyuan’s essence blood is declining, he can’t fight for long. If this drags on, I’m afraid…” someone said worriedly.
Especially since Saint Shengyuan still needed to divert some energy to shield Kun City, worsening his already depleted elixir field. He would likely completely crumble before long.
“I hate this! I only hate that our strength is too low to aid Saint Shengyuan! We even need Senior’s protection!” a Nirvana Realm human cultivator lamented.
Not far away, contemplation showed on Huo Xi’s face. A crystalline pagoda floated in her palm – a weapon refined through endless resources. Although not high-grade, the materials used were extremely rare.
If given to Saint Shengyuan, it might lend him some strength. However, just as Huo Xi was about to make up her mind, boom! A sudden change occurred.
An enormous golden claw pierced the clouds and void at extreme speeds. Before anyone could react, it pierced through Saint Shengyuan’s back in a spray of blood.
“Who is it? A sneak attack from behind? Is this how you myriad races’ experts fight?” Saint Shengyuan bellowed in pain. His furious roar resonated through the clouds, shaking the world.
The massive soundwave spread for tens of thousands of miles, the power of laws of heaven and earth trembling. The golden claw did not reply, circling around to attack again. Seeing this, Saint Shengyuan hurriedly stimulated his entire essence blood.
Bang!
A muffled sound rang out. Next, it was as if some shackle on Saint Shengyuan’s skull had shattered. A pillar of blood erupted, seemingly piercing heaven and earth.
Saint Shengyuan attacked in hatred, clenching his fist and whirling to smash the golden claw.
Boom! His fist and the golden claw collided with a deafening rumble, the boundless might seemingly shattering the rivers of time and space.
The thunderous roar seemed as if a massive army was surging, within the radiant brilliance that filled the sky. Saint Shengyuan was sent flying, hair disheveled, body drenched in blood as if emerging from a mountain of corpses and ocean of blood – terrifying.
His white hair was dyed crimson by the blood, his withered face covered in vessels, eyes gradually turning scarlet. He stood in the void with a fist-sized hole through his chest, clearly visible front and back, continuously seeping blood.
That was where his heart should have been! But the heart that should have been beating vigorously had inexplicably vanished. His chest was hollow, only crimson blood gushing forth. The instant it contacted air, the flesh convulsed wildly.
For an ordinary person, such an injury was virtually fatal with no chance of survival. But for cultivators, it was not necessarily fatal. After all, at the Saint Realm, one could still live even if decapitated. As long as he survived the battle, it could even be reattached.
Still, this was a heavy injury. Saint Shengyuan was already nearing death’s door. This killer blow had likely severed all his chances of survival.
“Despicable!”
“Why does a Saint Realm expert not dare to fight us head-on?”
“Haha… I didn’t expect a Saint Realm expert would actually launch a sneak attack. Don’t tell me you don’t dare show yourself?”
“The saint of your myriad races is truly despicable and shameless!”
“Why don’t you dare come out and fight? What skill is there in sneak attacking from behind? Come out and fight fair and square!”
“Is this what a saint is? A saint who only knows sneak attacks?”
The scene unfolding was far too sudden. None had anticipated that at this critical juncture, another Saint Realm expert would suddenly intervene.
It completely shattered the sole glimmer of hope that had just arisen in the hearts of all the humans of Kun City..
