Chapter 2173 – Divine Punishment
His body has been destroyed but his aura remains?
These Dao Servants had experienced countless incidents and events throughout their time on Godrank Mountain, so they were naturally clearly aware that a cultivator hadn’t been completely annihilated until that Daolord’s aura had been dispersed.
At the very least, they had almost 100 methods to revive an expert whose body had been destroyed yet a trace of that expert’s aura still remained.
However, it was only his aura in the end. The destruction of Chen Xi’s body was equivalent to an injury to his quintessence. It was no different than being heavily injured and on the verge of death, so he wasn’t terrifying to them any longer.
At this moment, they just had to eliminate his aura, and then it would be equivalent to completely destroying him without any chance of revival.
The 5th, 11th, and 13th Dao Servants were naturally clearly aware of that, so there was no need to remind them at all. The three of them took deep breaths as they circulated their strengths to its limits and utilized all of it to crush that remaining strand of Chen Xi’s aura.
In the blink of an eye, the killing intent within the world which seemed like a black colored purgatory grew even more terrifying. Boundless supreme energy overlapped together and emanated a terrifying force capable of overturning the world and turning back the void.
It was too terrifying!
If the cultivators of the outside world were to witness this scene, they would definitely be terrified to the point of shivering with fear!
This was the ability of those 3 Dao Servants!
Compared to the Light, Time, and Lightning Daolords who’d perished at Chen Xi’s hands, their combat strengths weren’t much stronger, but they hadn’t revealed a single flaw since they entered into combat and hadn’t underestimated Chen Xi at all.
Conversely, they’d utilized all the strength as soon as they attacked Chen Xi, and that was why they were able to attain such shocking results….
However….
The development of the entire situation was quite unexpected. Even if they’d crushed him with all their strengths, that strand of Chen Xi’s aura still hadn’t been destroyed!
How could this be possible?
The eyes of all the Dao Servants in the vicinity narrowed, and they had a deeper understanding of how tenacious and terrifying Chen Xi was. They were very clearly aware that if they hadn’t succeeded at subduing Chen Xi in one go just now, then the situation would have absolutely not developed so smoothly.
“Continue.” The 1st Dao Servant spoke indifferently.
He’d spoke just that word alone, and it carried an indisputable aura.
The 5th, 11th, and 13th Dao Servants took deep breaths before they gritted their teeth, and they merged practically all their strengths into that world which was formed from their Highgod Domains.
If this attack still couldn’t obliterate that strand of Chen Xi’s aura, then they would truly be embarrassed!
However, at the instant that they used every ounce of strength available to them, an indifferent voice suddenly resounded from that area which had completely enveloped Chen Xi’s figure. “My body is like Chaos itself, so can anyone even destroy me?”
These words were calm yet carried an arrogant aura of supremacy.
Just these words caused the blood red divine chains which whipped about violently through the sky to seem like snakes that were held by their weak points, and they trembled violently before exploding into pieces.
The myriad of divine troops who emanated boundless radiance seemed like they’d been swept away by a storm, and they were obliterated into nothingness.
The balls of golden divine flames in space seemed to suddenly wail and collapse, and they were extinguished and dispersed.
Right after those words resounded, Chen Xi’s figure appeared once more. His green clothes fluttered and were completely untainted by even a speck of dust, and his dark and deep eyes seemed to reflect the entire world within them and were suffused with a trace of indifferent ripples.
It was terrifying!
The pupils of all the Dao Servants dilated while their hearts trembled from this sudden scene that appeared before their eyes, and it made them feel slight disbelief.
Only a strand of his aura remained, so why was he able to be revived instantaneously and charge through the restraints and shackles that were upon him?
Rumble!
The dark world of purgatory that was formed from the Highgod Domains of the 3 Dao Servants surged violently without end and wailed repeatedly. It actually seemed to be on the verge of collapse.
“Attack!” A divine light flashed through the 1st Dao Servant’s eyes, and then 3 more Dao Servants attacked immediately.
Rumble!
A blood red abyss appeared in the dark and surging world, and it resided upside down in the air above Chen Xi. The abyss seemed like an abyss of blood, and it seemed to be on the verge of swallowing the ages while it emanated a terrifying swallowing force.
The 8th Dao Servant, the Blood Abyss Daolord, had utilized his Highgod Domain, the Abyss of Blood Sacrifice!
Swish!
At the same time, the 6th Dao Servant, the Five Element Daolord, reformed his Heavenly Wheels of the Five Elements, and it illuminated the world as it spun incessantly.
The 7th Dao Servant, the Bramble Daolord, attacked as well. A path appeared beneath Chen Xi’s feet. The path was uneven, rough, and covered densely by brambles as it led far off into the unknown.
This was the ‘Bramble Path’, a Highgod Domain that seemed ordinary yet actually possessed extremely terrifying offensive ability. Once one stepped foot onto the path, then it would be like falling into a maze. One’s Dao Heart would be blinded while it felt like one had been abandoned by the Grand Dao. It was simple like one had been exiled.
When the Abyss of Blood Sacrifice appeared, the originally surging world instantly started to show signs of stabilizing.
When the Heavenly Wheels of the Five Elements appeared, Chen Xi was suppressed once more, and he was drowned beneath the radiance of the five elements.
When the Bramble Path appeared, every single step Chen Xi took was like walking on brambles, and he fell into a state of being abandoned.
After that, the boundless blood red divine chains started whipping about madly, the myriad of divine troops swarmed out once more, and the golden divine flames started burning every inch of space again….
In other words, this world which Chen Xi was trapped in had transformed from containing 3 Highgod Domains to containing 6 Highgod Domains!
Six Dao Servants had attacked in unison, and it was obvious how terrifying the destructive force of this was!
At the very least, as far as the 1st Dao Servant was concerned, even if Wu Xuechan, Di Shun, and Wen Daozhen were to come here to save Chen Xi, it would be impossible for the 3 of them to break Chen Xi free in a short period of time!
As for other ordinary Daolords, they weren’t worth mentioning at all. Because if they were to head into the battlefield, then not to mention rescuing Chen Xi, they wouldn’t even be able to protect themselves!
…
But this time, even though Chen Xi’s figure was drowned by boundless attacks, his figure was like a steady mountain that wasn’t just completely unharmed, his imposing aura grew even stronger instead.
What!?!? All the Dao Servants were astounded. How could this be happening? 3 more of us have attacked yet it’s actually inferior to when only 3 of us were attacking him?
How could this be possible?Could it be that he hadn’t utilized his true combat strength just now?
The calm and composed hearts of the Dao Servants couldn’t help but shake at this moment, and they became anxious, surprised, and seemed as if they were facing a formidable enemy.
They finally understood why the Time, Light, and Lightning Daolords who were ranked at the 2nd, 3rd, and 4th position had perished.
Merely this scene alone was sufficient to discern how terrifying Chen Xi was. He couldn’t be judged by convention at all!
Bang!
Chen Xi didn’t wait for them to recover from their shock. He stopped acting passively like had had before this, and he launched an attack.
He took a step forward, and then the Bramble Path beneath his feet exploded into pieces. It was weak like a piece of paper.
The Bramble Daolord’s countenance turned pale.
Clang!
The dark blue and ancient Sword of Samsara resided in Chen Xi’s hand as it stabbed it upward into the sky, and then the Abyss of Blood Sacrifice which resided in the sky above him collapsed as it was stabbed into pieces.
The Blood Abyss Daolord groaned with pain.
Swish!
He swept the Sword of Samsara horizontally. In an instant, the Heavenly Wheels of the Five Elements, the Battle Spirits of the Heavens, the Light of the Void, the path of darkness….
Everything was blasted into pieces!
At the same time, the figures of the 6th, 11th, 13th, and 5th shook while a trace of blood seeped out from the corner of their mouths.
All of this took time to describe, but it had actually been a mere instant since Chen Xi attacked and eliminated all the attacks around him!
In an instant, this world that was jointly formed by the Highgod Domains of 6 Dao Servants had collapsed and transformed into a violent rain of light that stormed down into the surroundings.
Such a scene couldn’t just be described as just being world shocking because it was simply beyond common sense and surpassed the boundaries of the world!
All the Dao Servants were astounded while their cold and indifferent expressions had finally changed. They became anxious and indeterminate while tempestuous waves of shock which couldn’t be suppressed surged within their hearts.
Is this even something that a Savior who has just advanced into the Daolord Realm can accomplish?
Even the Master of Oracle Mountain himself, Fuxi, wouldn’t be much stronger, right?
“All of you were born from within the Order of Godsbane Heaven. Even though your combat strengths have arrived at the limits of the Daolord Realm, you are unable to lay eyes upon the Ultimate Path throughout your lifetimes, and all of you don’t dare to do so as well. Because Godsbane Heaven would seize and reclaim your strengths if you were to do that. This is your fate.” Chen Xi strode forward amidst his indifferent voice, and his handsome face carried a faint trace of ridicule.
The expressions of all the Dao Servants became gloomy. They were naturally clearly aware of the meaning behind Chen Xi’s words. But as far as they were concerned, all cultivators who dared to seek the Ultimate Path were heretics! They were existences that the Heaven Dao didn’t tolerate!
“Savior, there’s no need to say anymore. You’re bound to be unable to leave Godrank Mountain alive since we’re here. Now, receive your punishment!” Meanwhile, the 1st Dao Servant who’d been silent until now had taken a deep breath before he spoke in a low voice, and his voice carried a wisp of unprecedented resolve.
At the same time, the other Dao Servants in the vicinity actually revealed a practically devoted and resolute expression.
All of them looked up into the sky.
In this instant, an indifferent and cold eye had suddenly appeared in the sky. That eye surged with boundless energy of the Order of the Heaven Dao, and it was filled with supreme and terrifying heavenly might.
As soon as it appeared, the entire Godrank Mountain started to tremble violently, and it was like it was waking up after countless years of slumber.
All the participants from the Divine Dao Protector Clans who still hadn’t left were horrified by this, and they were shocked to the point of lying prone on the ground while shivering with terror and unease.
The Springs. All the Dao Defiants were alarmed by this, and their expressions changed. But they didn’t know what exactly had happened.
The Primal Chaos Origin. The hearts of all the strongest seniors in the Divine Dao Protector Clans shook, and they looked towards the same while shock and wonder covered their faces.
“Heavenly wrath!” Chen Taichong crushed the teacup in his hand while he seemed as if he’d lost his soul.
“Heavenly wrath….”
Wu Xuechan muttered while a rare trace of a serious expression appeared in the depths of his eyes.
At this moment, the entire Godrank Mountain, and the area around it had fallen into a terrifying state, and they were enveloped by a strand of a supreme and dignified aura.
At this moment, Chen Xi had raised his head and looked up into the sky, and his expression was indifferent when he saw that familiar Eye of Heavenly Tribulation in the sky above him.
