Chapter 377: The Warriors Strike Back
Translator: Noodletown Translations Editor: Noodletown Translations
Around the Four Symbol Grand Array, violent winds, dragon-like lightning bolts, and phoenix-like flames exploded with extremely horrifying power, sending sand and rocks flying.
The Four Symbol Grand Array combined the forces of many disciples of the Taixi Faction, and the array made changes according to the Great Dao of Nature. The moment that it emitted light, it could kill any grandmasters or grand warriors.
Qingxu’s lips curved up with a sneer. “I’ll see how long you can last!”
However, in the next moment, his smile froze on his face.
He saw the violent gusts of wind suddenly freezing in the air around the center of the big array. Instantly, the spiritual spells, spiritual light, and even the entire array stopped moving!
The dancing lightning bolts froze in the air, and the surging flood hovered in the sky strangely even though it didn’t freeze into ice; it just stayed there, not moving at all! It wasn’t flowing, and no water droplets fell from it!
Nalan Hongwu emitted a layer of crystal light all over his body, looking extremely weird!
In this instant, everything seemed to have paused in the long river of time that was flowing forward without stopping!
“What… what is this?!” If they could open their mouths, they would yell in horror. But at this moment, they couldn’t even open their mouths as if their bodies were not in their control!
As for the cultivators who hovered in the air under the support of spiritual essence, they didn’t fall from the sky even though the spiritual essence in their bodies had stopped circulating; they just froze in mid-air, as stiff as stone statues.
Their faces froze before they could reveal any horror, but the intense gloominess in their eyes showed the panic and fear inside.
With extreme shock, they watched the white-haired old man stroll up to them casually!
The sharp sword energies spread out as if it could cut open everything in the world, but no blood was seen spilling out.
The sky had darkened, turning this place into a pitch-black s.p.a.ce.
The shadow of death engulfed everyone!
This was Sword 23, which looked like the Grim Reaper was entering the mortal world!
Even the audience in the shops could sense the horrifying sword spirit from the screens, let alone the cultivators in front of the gate of Taixi Faction!
Seeing Nalan Hongwu walking closer, Qingxu and the others desperately wanted to attack but found that they couldn’t move their bodies or even their spiritual essence.
No one could believe that the scene before them was truly happening; neither could one imagine that this attack was cast by a warrior.
However, in front of the undeniable fact, all the cultivators of the Taixi Faction had to admit that this man who brought them endless horror was a warrior that they had looked down upon!
This was the power of Sword 23. Once it was cast, everything lost the right to live, and everything had to wait to be butchered. It was a horrifying technique that could even suppress the laws of s.p.a.ce!
This period of time seemed very long, as if 10,000 years had pa.s.sed, and they had come to the end of time.
Even Duyou Holiness had a deep chill in his eyes, feeling as if a surge of cold air ran up from his spine to his skull!
The power was so horrifying that it went beyond his imagination!
Is this guy still a warrior?!
How can such a horrifying warrior exist in the world?!
At this moment, a yellow b.u.t.terfly flew out of Duyou Holiness’ body and landed on his shoulder.
At a closer look, one could see that the b.u.t.terfly looked like it was made of yellow jade. Duyou Holiness acquired it from the depth of the Cultivation Realm, and it was one of his best trump cards. With the help of this yellow jade b.u.t.terfly which was said to be related to an ancient fallen immortal, and since he stood at the very edge of this horrifying h.e.l.l, he had a chance to flee!
When Sword 23 was finished, most of the disciples gathered before the mountain gate, the Four Symbol Grand Array including Daoist Xu, Chen, Cang and Dao, and even the whole mountain gate was destroyed!
“My…” Duyou Holiness looked at the scene before him with horror; he hadn’t imagined such an end only one moment ago. “My Taixi Faction lost almost half of its elites here!”
“Hurry!” Like a fish out of water, Duyou Holiness panted frantically. “Hurry! Open the faction-guarding grand array!”
While yelling hysterically, he took out his communication jade with a terrified expression; all of his previous calmness was gone.
The audience in Origins Internet Club broke into loud cheers.
“Awesome!”
“So powerful!”
“I guess this old guy is so scared that his head is not working!”
Black Demon, w.a.n.g Lingxiao, and the other cultivators who hadn’t watched Wind and Cloud yet were stunned. “What… what is this technique?!”
“Is he really just a warrior?!”
Terrified, Tang Yuan immediately sent a bullet comment. [How come warriors over there are so powerful? But the warriors in our region are so weak!]
[I recommend you to watch Wind and Cloud.]
[So do I! I’m surprised that Senior has mastered the old Sword Saint’s Sword 23!]
Warriors including Ji Wu commented, [Its power is a little less than the strike used by the old Sword Saint. Otherwise, no one could leave this place alive.]
Meanwhile, a pair of eyes suddenly opened in the depth of Taixi Faction!
This black-clothed cultivator emitted an abyss-deep aura, and he was the tall, black-robed old man who had once sat beside Duyou Holiness by the lake.
“This sword spirit is so horrifying!” His face turned dark. “How come my Taixi Faction has made such a powerful enemy?!”
He was holding an Eight-Trigram disk which emitted waves of mysterious and mystical spiritual light. Meanwhile, stars surged in the sky above the Taixi Faction as if the circulation of energy in the array pulled on many stars in the high sky. Under the guidance of the array, many spiritual light beams condensed into huge beams of spiritual essence before cras.h.i.+ng down from the stars. The spiritual essence in the earth also gathered and rose until a tremendous amount of spiritual essence surged up tempestuously in the s.p.a.ce between the heaven and the earth!
“Faction-guarding grand array?!”
“Why is the faction-guarding grand array activated?!”
“What happened?!”
Darkness engulfed the faction gate, but the disciples of the Taixi Faction on other peaks saw huge beams of spiritual essence shooting down from the sky. “It has been thousands of years since the faction-guarding grand array was last activated!”
Everyone in the Taixi Faction turned their gazes to this place!
They had never imagined that their faction would be forced into such a tight corner by a warrior!
Obviously, the Taixi Faction had realized the power of its enemies and had thus activated its full force!
