Chapter 1417 The Old City Lord Steps Forward
What kind of combat power is this?
Those present looking at the blood-stained figure of Absolute Heaven Sacred Venerable,
Were practically petrified!
Fighting one against four, slaughtering four powerful experts until nothing remained, it was truly a dreamlike scene!
These weren’t just any nobodies!
They were among the strongest people throughout history, who had dominated their respective fields during the Human Emperor era, recognized by the celestial spirits!
Now,
They were all defeated!
One by one they lay on the ground, like a bunch of drowned dogs, pale-faced as they gazed up at the invincible Absolute Heaven Sacred Venerable!
How strong was Absolute Heaven Sacred Venerable’s combat power?
Impossible to measure, it seemed no one could test his limits!
“I gave you a chance, but you were useless!”
“You wanted to kill me? Just you three little wastes along with Absolute God Sea, such an insect?”
Absolute Heaven Sacred Venerable’s face was cold, his words even more merciless, striking at the four powerful experts!
At this moment, Absolute God Sea had just regained consciousness, only to hear such words, which angered him so much he spat out a mouthful of fresh blood and fainted again!
“Absolute Heaven Sacred Venerable, don’t… don’t come any closer!”
Spirit River watched Absolute Heaven Sacred Venerable walking toward him, his face pale and voice fearful.
“What… what are you going to do?”
“What am I going to do? What can this Venerable do? Naturally, I’m going to kill you!”
Absolute Heaven Sacred Venerable’s lips curled into a cold smile.
Upon hearing this, Spirit River’s face grew even paler. At this moment, he wished he could faint like Absolute God Sea, but the sense of mortal danger made his entire body tense up, his five senses heightened to the extreme!
Was he going to start killing?
Those were four apex figures who had dominated this world for countless millennia!
Everyone was terrified!
Were they about to witness the end of an era? Former great figures all falling under Absolute Heaven Sacred Venerable’s hand!
“Absolute Heaven Sacred Venerable, you dare kill us?”
“Have you considered the consequences of killing us?”
Xiao Wuji and Gusu Qing both spoke up in rebuke.
They were too weak at this moment, barely supporting their injured bodies as they stood up, eyes fixed firmly on Absolute Heaven Sacred Venerable!
“For a hundred thousand years, you three divine mountains have repeatedly plotted against my Eastern Divine Mountain in secret, and I never bothered with it! Because I didn’t want to conflict with the beings behind you!”
“I just wanted to lay low, develop in secret, and pursue the path to immortality! I didn’t want to be some great hero saving the world like the Human Emperor, but you mistook my tolerance for fear, and this time you’ve directly crossed my bottom line!”
“You not only tried to kill my son and granddaughter, but even plotted against me! What great appetite you have!”
Absolute Heaven Sacred Venerable’s tone grew increasingly cold, like the voice of heavenly law, echoing throughout the world, resonating in everyone’s ears, making their souls tremble!
These words revealed far too much information!
Terrifying upon deeper reflection!
“The small Spirit Clan dares to participate in this matter!”
Absolute Heaven Sacred Venerable, filled with killing intent, unhesitatingly reached out his great hand toward Spirit River. Divine light spread out, containing infinite terrible power, as he attempted to forcibly refine Spirit River!
“No!”
Spirit River cried out in terror!
The distant Taixin Lake boiled violently in response to his cry, sending down divine lightning bolts toward Absolute Heaven Sacred Venerable, but without exception, all lightning was blocked, unable to touch him in the slightest!
“Ahhh!!!”
Spirit River roared,
His aura visibly withered at an alarming rate, his body contracting, the light of his divine soul growing dim, as if tracing back through time, returning to his most primitive state!
A generation’s Spirit Clan leader, the great figure who had led the Spirit Clan to prosperity, had now reached the end of his life!
This scene filled people’s hearts with dread!
And at this moment,
An elderly voice suddenly echoed throughout the world, reverberating in everyone’s ears:
“That’s enough. You’ve won. You may take your people and leave this place!”
“Boom!”
The world suddenly became incredibly bright.
In the harsh daylight,
An elderly figure appeared, emerging from the depths of the Sky City. In a single step, he crossed countless miles, instantly arriving at the scene. Raising his aged right hand, he forcefully rescued Spirit River from Absolute Heaven Sacred Venerable’s great dao prison.
“Hongqing! You finally show yourself!”
Spirit River looked at the elderly figure who had saved him, tears streaming down his face.
Nearby, the terrified Spirit Brilliance Venerable suddenly rejoiced and hurriedly shouted:
“Spirit Hongqing, quickly kill Absolute Heaven Sacred Venerable!”
The old man didn’t respond to these words, merely giving Spirit Brilliance Venerable a cold look that made him shudder and dare not speak again!
And at this moment,
The scene became deathly silent!
A group of people stared blankly at the elderly figure.
They didn’t know who Spirit Hongqing was, but this aged face was one that too many had seen before, one who had once taught at the Dao Discussion Square in Sky City, his laws following his words, shocking the world!
The Old City Lord!
The Old City Lord had appeared!
Everyone’s hearts pounded as they felt events taking unexpected turns, becoming increasingly uncontrollable!
“Relic Sacred Spirit?”
Absolute Heaven Sacred Venerable looked at the Old City Lord expressionlessly.
Under his pale golden gaze, everything became clear at once. This so-called Spirit Hongqing, this Old City Lord, was nothing but an incarnation of the immortal relic’s sacred spirit!
He finally understood how the Spirit Clan had risen so rapidly in such a short time!
The Spirit Hongqing of the past had likely died long ago!
His physical body had been occupied by a sacred spirit born from Taixin Lake, walking among the mortal world.
“I never expected a mere mortal body could reach your level! It truly exceeds my expectations.”
The Old City Lord spoke calmly.
He had witnessed everything, and though he was surprised by Absolute Heaven Sacred Venerable’s combat power, it was merely surprise, for after that great battle in ancient times, this world had gained many secrets and many unknowable beings!
Then,
The Old City Lord looked at Lin Feng in his enlightenment state, a strange light flashing in his turbid eyes, though this light quickly subsided, once again becoming calm and unperturbed!
“You may leave! Don’t come causing trouble in Sky City again…”
The Old City Lord spoke slowly.
His words carried an irrefutable firmness.
“Among the five immortal path sacred spirits, one more or less makes no difference. If I’m not mistaken, you’ve grown old now, haven’t you? Your physical body is decaying… with little vitality remaining!”
Absolute Heaven Sacred Venerable responded forcefully.
“My essence is difficult for heaven and earth to destroy! This mortal body is merely a form of restraint!”
The Old City Lord replied indifferently.
“Is that so? Then why restrain yourself? Don’t you find your own words ridiculous?”
Absolute Heaven Sacred Venerable paused, then added meaningfully:
“Or is it that sacred spirits are destined to never become immortals, and to become immortal, one must have a mortal body? Otherwise, why would you be so fixated on this?”
“You’ve said too much! Do you wish to battle with me? You’re welcome to try!”
The Old City Lord responded expressionlessly.
The conversation between the two left many present unable to understand, but everyone could grasp the deeper meaning!
They were clearly testing each other,
Very likely, neither side was absolutely confident they could defeat the other, so they were using words to probe each other’s depths!
