If things were to continue on like this, even a tier six Divine level expert might deplete all of his powers.
However, the appearance of the bug swarm did not let the Oceansky Saint feel relaxed. If the people still did not understand how powerful the Plenary Foundation Septet were even after they made their appearance, then the Plenary Foundation Septet’s display of strength after the series of exchanges could be said to be extremely astonishing.
Even with the cooperation from the Purple Mage King’s bug swarms, the Oceansky Saint still did not feel confident at all.
With the appearance of the bug swarms, the fat priest who had not made a single move since the beginning finally took action.
He took a step forward and appeared before the bug swarm, enveloped in the turbid flow. Putting out one hand, he grabbed out like he was grabbing the space of the entire world. Then he tugged fiercely, and it felt as if all the space in the world was being tugged.
The scene that followed was astonishing.
With the fatty’s tug, all the space that the bug swarm occupied seemed to enter a state of chaos. It was not just the location of space that entered a chaos. Even the sequence of the bugs’ actions seemed to have undergo a change.
It was as if all of their actions and directions had been edited, intertwining and making them face each other.
At the next moment, the bug swarm’s attacks landed all amongst themselves, turning into batches of remains that plunged down toward the ground.
“Five seconds. I can only make a move for five seconds. If I exceed the five seconds, the Heavenly Secrets Shifting Art will be negated and other people will be able to sense this place.”
As the fatty’s martial will transmitted out, the turbid flow that encompassed the Phenomenal Saint also trembled intensely. It was as if the fight inside it had reached the most critical stage.
The fatty fended off the bug swarm with one attack and moved at the next moment, blocking the path of the Immortality Saint and the Oceansky Saint.
“The two of you better not make any reckless moves,” the fatty said calmly. “You’ll be able to live a little longer if you don’t.”
Nevertheless, how could the Immortality Saint and the Oceansky Saint possibly listen to him? With a single thought, they each performed their divine arts and struck out toward the fatty.
Yet when the glow from the divine arts’ powers just lit up, they were lured by a strange force of attraction. Then they spiraled together and eventually exploded.
To think that even the God of Universal Truth’s powers were reflected. This was something the two of them had never expected to happen before.
The Oceansky Saint suffered serious injuries from the explosion.
Meanwhile, the Immortality Saint trembled and his countenance turned pale.
“Oh?” The fatty threw a surprised glance at the Immortality Saint, as if not expecting the other party to be able to take this attack from him. However, the fatty did not think much of it and put out his hand once again, slapping out toward the Immortality Saint.
The Immortality Saint’s brows twitched as he sensed an intense feeling of danger. Therefore, he did not plan on taking this attack head-on. He was about to move away and retreat at light speed when he realized that regardless of how moved, he would be unable to dodge the fatty’s palm attack.
Then he tried activating the Spatial Translocation ability, but it was ineffective as well.
“Excellent. To think that there’s another tier six Divine level expert hidden in the Church.” When the Immortality Saint activated the Spatial Translocation ability, the fatty discovered that he was different. A gleam lit up in the fatty’s eyes, and his palm movement accelerated.
Since the Immortality Saint was unable to dodge the fatty’s attack, he could only strike out with his palm as well. When the two palms collided, the Immortality Saint discovered that all of his power had rebounded, and the same exact power exploded in his body. It was as if he had punched himself at full-power, causing him to retreat step by step as the light spots all over his body continued to shatter incessantly.
‘How is this possible? To be able to reflect the God of Universal Truth’s powers, making my Spatial Translocation inability ineffective and even rebounding my attack…’ The Immortality Saint looked at the fat priest in great astonishment. The fatty’s realm had far surpassed his own, and even that of Hei Zi’s and Hao Zi’s when the two of them exchanged blows with the Phenomenal Saint. The fatty’s displayed means were simply too deep and unfathomable.
Just as the fatty managed to single-handedly inflict the Immortality Saint and Oceansky Saint with serious injuries, the turbid flow that encompassed the Phenomenal Saint seethed, finally revealing the figures of Hao Zi, Hei Zi, and the Phenomenal Saint.
Hao Zi was lifting the Phenomenal Saint like picking up a chicken by the neck. The two light circles from the White Emperor Zenith Sword on the Phenomenal Saint’s back were no longer in sight.
In Hei Zi’s hands, 14 streams of light kept flashing. They were clearly from the White Emperor Zenith Sword.
At the sight of this, the countenance of the Immortality Saint and Oceansky Saint, as well as the Guardian Kings and everyone in the Imperial Capital, changed drastically.
Earlier on, the fatty and his group had already displayed their tier six Divine level realm, and just one of them alone was capable of fighting against the Phenomenal Saint. With the White Emperor Zenith Sword in their hands, how strong could they become?
The fatty laughed and appeared next to Hei Zi, throwing an admiring glance at the White Emperor Zenith Sword in his hands. “What an excellent Divine Equipment. To think that 1,000 years later, we actually have a chance to get it in our hands…”
The other five of them also heaved a sigh of relief inwardly. With the Phenomenal Saint captured, the ten Guardian Kings suppressed, the remaining two Saints inflicted with serious injuries by the fatty, and them getting their hands on the White Emperor Zenith Sword, there was now no one else who can stop them now.
Everyone in the Imperial Capital felt overwhelming astonishment at the sight of this scene.
This was especially so for people like the Sea Monarch, who initially thought that their strength still considerably decent. It was only after coming to the Imperial Capital that they realized the Empire’s strength had surged and there were countless experts working under Fang Xingjian.
After that, the Church of Universal Truth arrived, and the Phenomenal Saint killed Fang Xingjian and three other people, letting them realize how terrifying the massive influences in this vast land were.
However, just as everyone felt that the Church of Universal Truth was going to dominate over the entire land, another six mysterious experts defeated the Phenomenal Saint. Within the time it took to say a few words, the fat priest—who was the leader amongst them had—inflicted the other two Saints with serious injuries. They even managed to seize the Church’s strongest Divine Equipment—the White Emperor Zenith Sword.
Hei Zi looked at the 14 light spots in his hand, and his lips curled up into a brutal smile. He raised his head to look at the Immortality Saint and the Oceansky Saint who were both in the sky.
“If I didn’t remember wrongly, the White Emperor Zenith Sword is formed from a total of 28 sections. The remaining ones should be with the two of you?”
Both the Immortality Saint and Oceansky Saint were stunned. Their entire bodies tensed up as they sensed the malicious gaze from the six demonic figures.
Six streams of malicious intents came pressing down on them with unparalleled pressure. They caused both the Immortality Saint and Oceansky Saint to sense as if the surrounding space had become material, suppressing their bodies. It was as if they wanted to confine the two of them.
‘Damn it, Fang Xingjian, Ulpian. Where the hell did the two of you go?’ The Immortality Saint started to feel flustered and exasperated.
If only Fang Xingjian and Ulpian had appeared earlier and taken action before when the Phenomenal Saint was holding off two members of the septet… That would have been the best time to make a move.
However, the Phenomenal Saint had been seized, and all six demonic figures had their battle prowess. They had even obtained 14 sections of the White Emperor Zenith Sword. The situation was extremely dire.
Just then, everyone seemed to see a stream of sword light flashing past in the sky.
Everyone felt that they had seen this stream of sword light, but they were unable to say where it had passed by. It was as if the sword light had brushed past the entire world, or rather, the stream of sword light had swept passed their eyeballs.
“Who’s there?”
The fatty’s brows twitched and tried to block with his hand. A series of martial will clashed before Hei Zi, and the two gushes of power pushed out countless cracks in space. Black cracks extended out across the entire sky above the Imperial Capital and were still continuing to extend out in many stacking layers. They were like shock waves.
After one attack, Hei Zi was sent flying out from the repercussive waves of the collision. He kept rolling uncontrollably and only came to a stop after flying out for over ten kilometers.
A large part of the fatty’s palm was also instantly shattered. His body trembled slightly as he looked with a grim countenance at the person who had suddenly appeared right before his eyes.
This person who had appeared before them had a black robe that was casually draped on, revealing his slightly muscular chest.
His face was fair as snow, and he wore a faint smile on his lips, emitting a lethal sense of attraction like he was the most precious gemstone in the world.
Right now, after having been through three months’ worth of cultivation together with Ulpian, Fang Xingjian was emitting a peerless and independent disposition all over his body. It was like he was a celestial that would depart at any moment, giving off a feeling that he could not be touched. This feeling caused the members of the Plenary Foundation Septet present to feel ineffable.
Hei Zi’s gaze turned grim, and there seemed to be a hint of disbelief on his face as he spoke each word clearly, “Fang Xingjian?”
Fang Xingjian’s gaze brush past the Plenary Foundation Septet and then eventually looked toward the stunned Hei Zi.
“Leave the White Emperor Zenith Sword. You guys can leave.”
Hearing Fang Xingjian’s words, the Plenary Foundation Septet was slightly stunned. At the next moment, all of them broke out laughing.
“Haha…”
“Hahahaha…”
“Hahahahahaha!”
The fatty also laughed. Amidst his laughter, all the fats in his body seemed to be trembling, and his laughter grew increasingly louder.
“Are you an idiot?”
He darted right up to Fang Xingjian, reaching a distance as if their cheeks would touch each other. Glaring at Fang Xingjian’s eyes, the fatty said, “If you guys handover the remaining sections of the White Emperor Zenith Sword, I can consider letting you have complete corpses.”
However, at the next moment, a hint of astonishment flashed on his face.
Concurrently, a black sword lotus bloomed on the fatty’s face, causing the upper half of his face to be swept into a myriad of light spots.
“If you don’t leave, die.”
