Chapter 742: Nine Swords Returning Into One, Starlight

Translator: Sparrow Translations Editor: Sparrow Translations

Fang Zhengzhi’s eyes were bright. His crystalline eyes shone with a purple light. As he slashed with his sword, he could clearly sense that Second Elder had been injured.

However, this was not enough to kill him. At the final moment, Fang Zhengzhi could sense that something had blocked him.

Just as he thought about that…

A golden ray of light lit up, broke through the purple light, and rushed out. It was vast and ancient and one could hear an ancient bell chiming in the background.

“Dong!” One could hear the sound of a bell.

The purple light, which had been released, was completely suppressed. Gradually, a golden bell started to s.h.i.+ne. Compared to the shadow just now, it was very different. This time, the golden bell was smaller but it was solid. Second Elder held the tiny ancient bell in his hands as he slowly twirled it around.

On the ancient bell, one could see intricate and exquisite patterns. The nine small golden swords were carved on it and on top of it, one could see the head of a beast, which appeared to be a jin chan (Translator’s Note: It’s also known as a ‘money frog’. Imagine a golden frog with a coin in its mouth.)

“This is Second Elder’s Source of Dao, the ‘Golden Beast Sword Bell’!”

“Second Elder’s arm is injured?!”

“He actually forced Second Elder to use this… is this guy really just in his Rebirth State?!”

When the Heaven Dao Pavilion disciples saw the tiny golden bell in Second Elder’s hand, as well as his bleeding arm, they were no longer just shocked.

They were depressed.

Had he not used his Source of Dao, the Golden Beast Sword Bell, the Heaven Dao Pavilion disciples would still have a glimmer of hope in their hearts.

This meant that he was truly in a life-and-death situation.

“Will he really lose? The Heaven Dao Pavilion, one of the five sects of the Holy Region, will actually lose to the Shadow Sect in its own territory?” The Heaven Dao Pavilion disciples could not accept this result. However, this cruel outcome was about to happen.

Of course, Second Elder did not give up.

Although it was a sign of desperation for him to use his Source of Dao, its appearance also meant that Second Elder’s strength was raised to the next level.

“Fang Zhengzhi, even if I die today, I’ll take you down with me!” Second Elder roared. He was utterly enraged because of that attack just now.

A wild energy surged from the Golden Beast Sword Bell in his hand and he was bathed in golden light. It was as if he had been cloaked in an armor of gold.

At the same time, the nine swords carved on his Golden Beast Sword Bell flew out instantly. They congregated toward the golden sword Second Elder wielded.

“Ding!” A light sound.

The nine tiny swords disappeared instantly and the golden sword in Second Elder’s hand started to transform. The light on top of it became even more intense and one could see shadows flitting past on the blade of the sword. An unbelievably sharp aura could be felt from it.

“Nine swords returning into one? Are you going to use your full strength?!” As Fang Zhengzhi noticed the transformation of the sword Second Elder wielded, he too was stunned.

After all, his opponent was the Second Elder of the Heaven Dao Pavilion. In terms of pure strength, he was many times more powerful than he was. When someone like him wanted to use his full strength, it was no joke!

As he watched the huge and powerful aura coming over, Fang Zhengzhi wanted to try and resist it once more. However, he knew that this aura was too strong and completely unlike Fourth Elder’s.

Then, before Fang Zhengzhi even had the time to ponder and make his decision, Second Elder had already transformed into a golden ray of light and appeared before him.

It was really…

Blindingly-fast!

Even Fang Zhengzhi was stunned by Second Elder’s speed. This was because Yan Qing, who stood in front of him, did not even react as Second Elder rushed over.

Evidently, one could tell how fast Second Elder was.

“This is ridiculous?!” Fang Zhengzhi instantly felt the level of suppression he had experienced when he fought against Tian Xing, the Leader of the Nine Pinnacles Mountain.

At this moment, a ray of golden light flashed past his eyes.

It was very bright and the very air appeared to have been torn apart.

Then, Fang Zhengzhi heard a sound that resembled metals clanging against each other. It was as if ten thousand swords clashed against each other.

It was deafening.

At the same time, it made him anxious.

He shook his head vigorously. Fang Zhengzhi felt that at this time, he must stay calm. However, before he could calm down, a shocking scene appeared once more. The golden light in front of him transformed into nine different rays of light. Each of them was a single sword and each sword shone with a golden sword.

Oh no!

When Fang Zhengzhi saw this scene, he knew that he was in deep trouble.

This was because Second Elder’s speed was seriously too fast. Furthermore, the nine golden swords completely sealed Fang Zhengzhi’s retreat. From top to bottom, he was completely encircled.

There was no way for him to escape.

He could only resist it forcefully.

A black armor appeared on Fang Zhengzhi’s body and then, black fire burned on his black armor. Right now, a few more rays of purple light started to s.h.i.+ne on the black fire.

This was Fang Zhengzhi’s strongest defense.

Of course, as he defended himself, Fang Zhengzhi’s Traceless Sword moved too. He sliced upward at the first golden sword that came for his throat.

However, at this very moment, a figure appeared like a ghost in front of Fang Zhengzhi. The figure had lightless black eyes, which looked like the depths of h.e.l.l.

Yan Xiu!

Yan Xiu, right now, was no longer targeted by both Second Elder and Fang Zhengzhi. However, they did not forget about him.

After all, he had been attacking all this while.

“Yan Xiu, move!” Fang Zhengzhi never expected Yan Xiu to appear in front of him at this moment. Normally, by right, Yan Xiu would have lost his reason.

Without reason, how could they coordinate?

Fang Zhengzhi never prepared for this. However, when Yan Xiu appeared, nine golden swords stabbed down at the same time. Their speed was astoundingly fast.

“Kill!” Yan Xiu did not appear to have heard what Fang Zhengzhi said. He said in a shrill voice and then, a black claw appeared from the ground and slashed the golden swords.

At this moment…

Fang Zhengzhi felt that something was amiss.

When Yan Xiu looked at him, he thought he saw something in Yan Xiu’s black, lightless eyes. Something was on the verge of rus.h.i.+ng out.

It was an extremely tragic sensation.

It pa.s.sed instantly.

Then, the nine golden swords came down.

One of the golden swords pierced Yan Xiu’s right chest. Then, it did not stop. After it had penetrated his right chest and pierced right through his body, it stabbed Fang Zhengzhi’s right chest too.

“Ah! Yan Xiu!” Fang Zhengzhi cried out in pain. At the same time, his Traceless Sword, which just blocked another golden sword, turned into a purple dragon as it slashed Second Elder.

“Crrrack!” Sounds could be heard from the purple light.

A b.l.o.o.d.y streak appeared on Second Elder’s chest. It was so deep until his bones could be seen. The force of the impact sent Second Elder flying.

While Fang Zhengzhi sent Second Elder back with one slash of his sword, the golden swords which attacked Yan Xiu and him did not retreat. They continued to stab him.

“Pfft!”

“Pfft!”

“…”

Fresh blood stained the skies. Fang Zhengzhi’s blood, Yan Xiu’s blood, and even Second Elder’s blood were all inside.

Evidently, when Second Elder used that move, he did not give himself any opportunity to retreat. After he attacked, he did not even have the energy to block Fang Zhengzhi’s Traceless Sword.

He used all his strength in one blow.

Like what he said, if Second Elder were to die, he would drag Fang Zhengzhi down with him.

From the moment Second Elder attacked to the moment when Fang Zhengzhi, Yan Xiu, and Second Elder were all heavily injured, only a few seconds had pa.s.sed.

“Second Elder!” When the Heaven Dao Pavilion disciples saw Second Elder collapsing on the ground, they reacted to it.

“Boom!” A huge sound could be heard.

As Second Elder fell onto the ground, the huge golden bell covering Yan Qianli disappeared. One could see that Second Elder had no strength left.

“Yan Xiu!” When Yan Qianli emerged from the golden bell, he looked at Yan Xiu immediately. His eyes were bright red.

Tiny capillaries could be seen in Yan Qing’s eyes too. He blocked Fang Zhengzhi from the front but he never expected that Second Elder would be this fast.

He actually bypa.s.sed him.

To him, this was a huge blow. He knew that Second Elder could do that but still, it was a huge blow to him.

“Fang Zhengzhi!” Yan Qing roared like a beast. Then, he charged toward Second Elder.

“Yan Qing, don’t even think of hurting Second Elder!” When the Heaven Dao Pavilion disciples saw Yan Qing rus.h.i.+ng toward Second Elder, they emerged from their sword formations to confront him.

“Save…. Save us first?” Fang Zhengzhi could understand Yan Qing’s desire for revenge. However, he felt that he and Yan Xiu should be saved first.

Of course, he and Yan Xiu had been stabbed many times. However, these wounds were not fatal. He managed to block the attacks which could have proven to be truly fatal.

However, he was definitely injured.

Yan Xiu was in the greatest danger. He had lost a lot of blood earlier on and his body was weak. Furthermore, he had descended into an Evil Asura. Right now, he had also been stabbed many times, one of which went through his right chest.

Hence, he fainted straight away.

“Old man Yan, bring Yan Xiu and Fang Zhengzhi with your young friend and go! We can’t afford any delay!” When the Heavenly Oasis Sage saw Yan Qianli emerging from the golden bell, he shouted at him instantly.

After all, the Heaven Dao Pavilion still had a Great Elder and Pavilion Leader Mu Qingfeng. These two were the true powerhouses of the Heaven Dao Pavilion, which allowed themselves to make a name in the Holy Region and become one of the five sects of the Holy Region.

“Young friend, let’s go!” Yan Qianli knew what the Heavenly Oasis Saint was thinking. Yan Xiu was unconscious now. This was the best time to escape.

However, right when he said that…

The entire sky turned dark.

He felt as if the light in the sky had been blocked. Everyone could not help but to raise their heads and looked at the sky above.

…

Fang Zhengzhi’s emotions were hard to describe.

As he was injured, his body lay underneath Yan Xiu, squashed. This allowed him to look at the phenomenon that was taking place.

However, this scene was so odd that he did not know how to describe it.

Instantly, he saw a light appearing in the sky. This light appeared to have come from the stars. However, it was odd for starlight to appear in the daytime.

Of course…

The starlight in the daytime was not the strangest thing.

The starlight seemed to be descending at an even pace.

In fact, when Fang Zhengzhi saw the starlight, he thought that he was seeing things. After all, he had been severely injured and it was normal for him to hallucinate.

Right now, he dismissed this notion.

This was because as the starlight came down, a truly odd scene appeared. The light started to expand ma.s.sively.

The starlight turned black.

It was a completely black rock. Or rather, it was not just one rock but an entire mountain. It was a mountain which could block the sky.

For such a change to happen…

Fang Zhengzhi just wanted to say, “What the actual f*ck?!”

He was truly unlucky. Right when he was severely injured, a humongous mountain actually came cras.h.i.+ng down from the sky.

Was this not f*cking bullying?

Very few people shared Fang Zhengzhi’s thought because none of them saw the starlight coming down.

Instead, they just noticed the sky turning dark.

Then, they lifted their heads to see a huge black mountain descending rapidly. It descended so quickly and forced them to scatter in all four directions.

“Where did the mountain come from?!”

“What’s going on?”

“Run!”

The Heaven Dao Pavilion disciples were all confused. However, their first reaction was to run to somewhere outside of the shadow. After all, if a mountain actually did come down, it would kill them all.

Fang Zhengzhi wanted to run too.

However, he had been stabbed numerous times and Yan Xiu was currently on top of him. How could he run?
