Chapter 431: Chapter 205: The Emperor Sword is Very Good, It Belongs to the Ancestor Now! We’ll Talk in the Next Life!_4
But now, the situation was easily resolved, and the outside world had no idea, all those mortals and cultivators remained unaware of the Divine Weapons Battle that had just taken place here.
“Behave, or I’ll erase your artifact spirit,” Han Li said indifferently, addressing the struggling ancient bronze sword in his hand.
Threatened and intimidated, the artifact spirit of the ancient bronze sword instantaneously became compliant. The bronze sword ceased its struggles and allowed Han Li to play with it as he wished.
He casually stowed the ancient bronze sword into the System Space to prevent any accidents and then took Lu Tianxiang’s hand, heading into the valley.
He knew that the Fishing Elder within the valley must be aware of his arrival, considering the speedy conclusion of the Divine Weapons Battle, and although he’d taken measures to conceal the commotion, the Fishing Elder would definitely be in the know.
In fact, Han Li had guessed correctly.
The moment the Divine Weapons Battle erupted, the Fishing Elder in the valley was aware of it.
Feeling the might of the two Supreme Grade Emperor Weapons, he knew the ancient bronze sword was in dire straits. His first thought was to flee, to abandon this place, and even the sole Emperor Weapon he possessed.
But he found he couldn’t escape at all. An unparalleled Emperor Formation had covered a radius of a hundred thousand miles, preventing him from leaving.
This realization left the Fishing Elder in despair. Having fished for tens of thousands of years, eating countless small fish, he had now caught a Prehistoric Giant Crocodile and found himself about to be devoured instead.
Within the Emperor Formation, twelve deities manifested, closing in from twelve directions, herding the Fishing Elder back into the valley. Then they stood around the valley, watching silently, imposing immense psychological pressure on the Fishing Elder.
He was merely a Saint of the Heavenly Abyss Realm, but these twelve deities were all at the pinnacle of the Quasi Emperor level. Even if he wielded the Quasi Emperor Weapon, he was utterly unable to cope.
It was not long before the Fishing Elder realized that the Divine Weapons Battle had ended. With a sigh in his heart, he sat cross-legged deep in the valley, calmly awaiting the arrival of the Prehistoric Giant Crocodile.
Soon, the Fishing Elder of the Heavenly Abyss Realm saw two figures approaching together, a man, and a woman. The man was handsome and striking, the woman was as beautiful as a goddess, they looked like a couple descended from heaven.
“Fellow Daoist, this all has been a misunderstanding, please let me explain,” the Fishing Elder hastily started to speak before Han Li and Lu Tianxiang could utter a word.
“A misunderstanding? Then explain it to this elder,” Han Li said calmly.
He discovered that the Fishing Elder was actually a Saint of the Heavenly Abyss Realm, truly cunning and deceitful. A Saint hiding and fishing in the islands of the South Sea was a rarity, as the great Sacred Lands across the Qianyuan Divine Province did not have Saints of the Heavenly Abyss Realm.
Lu Tianxiang pursed her red lips, remaining silent, but her expression looked rather poor. The Living Beings Immortal Transformation Scripture did indeed contain traps.
If she hadn’t been accompanied by her husband, the consequences would have been unthinkable, as she was no match for a Saint of the Heavenly Abyss Realm.
“Fellow Daoist, you are here for the subsequent part of the Living Beings Immortal Transformation Scripture, I presume. I have been waiting here for years for this, in hopes of finding a suitable successor, and at last, it seems my wait is over…”
The Fishing Elder rattled on, attempting to portray himself as a positive figure.
According to the Fishing Elder, he had been injured back in the day and had ended up in the South Sea of Qianyuan Divine Province by accident. Believing his end was near, he passed on the first part of the Living Beings Immortal Transformation Scripture, hoping that someone in the Qianyuan Divine Province could cultivate to the True Martial Realm and then find this place to inherit his legacy.
However, as his injuries gradually healed and he eventually recovered, he continued waiting here, hoping to take a disciple to pass on the mantle before leaving the Qianyuan Divine Province to seek revenge on his enemies.
Han Li remained impassive, unmoved by the story.
If the Fishing Elder was really as he claimed, he would not have hung the Emperor Sword at the entrance. Besides, Han Li sensed many grievances in the valley, unaware of how many cultivators of the True Martial Realm had perished here.
Seeing Han Li’s silence, the Fishing Elder’s heart sank.
He could sense that the female cultivator had practiced the Living Beings Immortal Transformation Scripture, and while she might have enjoyed some benefits, she had brought a Prehistoric Giant Crocodile with her, which gave the Fishing Elder unspeakable difficulties.
The male cultivator, although merely at the peak of the Divine Yuan Realm, had too many methods; he possessed two Supreme Grade Emperor Weapons and a set of Array Diagrams, pushing the Fishing Elder into a corner.
“Fellow Daoist, I still have things to discuss…” Desperate thoughts racing, the Fishing Elder hurriedly began to speak, hoping to stabilize this Divine Yuan Realm Martial Emperor.
“Let’s talk in your next life,” Han Li said indifferently, as one of the deities manifested by the Array Diagrams took action – a Three-legged Golden Crow. Although not a pureblooded one, it possessed the combat ability of a Quasi Emperor at its peak.
The Three-legged Golden Crow opened its beak, and rolling waves of True Solar Fire erupted, burning the void itself, about to annihilate the Fishing Elder of the Heavenly Abyss Realm in a single strike.
The Fishing Elder let out an angry shout, and a vast Primordial Spirit appeared behind him, imbued with Pure Yang, towering at thirty million zhang high. Its aura shone across the heavens, illuminating everything.
Above the mighty Pure Yang Primordial Spirit, a Heavenly Abyss spread across the sky, bursting forth with majestic and boundless Sacred Light. Countless runes exploded, overwhelming the skies, merging with the Pure Yang Primordial Spirit.
Fortified by the Heavenly Abyss, the Primordial Spirit wielded a Silver Sky Spear, a mid-grade Emperor Weapon, unleashing unparalleled force that even chopped through the True Solar Fire.
“Hmph!”
Han Li snorted coldly, and in an instant, all twelve deities acted in unison. The power of the Immortal Sky Concealing Formation exploded, empowering the twelve deities, as they combined their strength for a collective strike.
Boom!
The Silver Sky Spear fell straight down, embedding itself into the earth, yet it did not unleash its power again, as its Artifact Spirit recognized the situation.
The Fishing Elder was directly obliterated by this strike from the Heaven Imperial Realm, his body and Primordial Spirit shattered, resulting in an instant death.
His True Spirit tried to flee, to reincarnate anew, but Han Li would not let it escape so easily. With a sweep of the Array Diagrams, the True Spirit was suppressed.
