Chapter 589: The Outlawed Sky-Prides’ Intimidation, You’ve Grown Some Guts
“So strong! The display of power in that move may be close to a Sovereign’s!”
The sky-prides were in awe of the display of power brought forth by the collision of Lan Yu’s divine spear and the Sword Daoist’s sword shadow.
Even the outlawed sky-prides were concerned.
All the while, no one amongst the sky-prides had managed to attain combat strengths that resembled a Sovereign’s. If any, they were mostly Boundary Emperors who possessed an endless amount of resources.
However, the emergence of the Emperor’s Throne had granted the sky-prides access to a lucrative amount of resources. With tremendous improvement, some sky-prides now managed to exhibit combat strengths that were close to that of a Sovereign.
“I told you not to get too cocky.”
Lan Yu said. After receiving three sword attacks from the Sword Daoist, she still managed to come out unscathed. There were no questions that her combat strengths were as strong as those of the outlawed sky-prides.
In fact, she was no weaker than outlawed sky-prides like the Sword Daoist.
“Hmph. I didn’t even use my full strength.”
Slightly embarrassed that his opponent had survived three attacks, the Sword Daoist could only give a low grunt.
However, his statement was not entirely false.
After all, the Sword Daoist had not used his Emperor Weapon.
“Well, you can say anything now that you’ve lost your chance.”
Lan Yu uttered indifferently. Then, she stared at the rest of the cultivators and said, “Now, is there anyone else who wishes to hurt them?”
The crowd went silent.
Lan Yu’s overwhelming display of power had made even the outlawed sky-prides unwilling to underestimate her.
Among the crowd, the black-robed cultivators merely exchanged glances, which carried a hint of shock and fear.
These were the cultivators from the Dark Shadow Religion, the rival institution of the Holy Light Religion. Both entities had been in a perpetual state of conflict for countless years now.
“The Holy Bachelor Sage is already tough to deal with. Yet now, we have to deal with another Holy Maiden Sage. I’m afraid the battle is going to get tougher.”
“You’re right. The Dark Shadow Religion must not be left behind. We must find our next Dark Maiden Sage as soon as possible.”
The Dark Shadow Religion’s cultivators were conversing with their spiritual thoughts.
Just then, a surge of dark aura approached from afar.
“This aura… It’s Master Bachelor Sage.”
The Dark Shadow Religion’s cultivators stared passionately into the horizon.
“Haha, interesting, Holy Maiden Sage! Well, I insist on killing those whom you wish to protect!”
A palm strength infused with an unforgiving dark aura unleashed and covered the entire sky. The palm was coming straight for Nangong Huang, Murong Xuan, and Shang Qingxue!
“Don’t you dare!”
Lan Yu roared and stepped in between the Daoists and the palm qi.
A copious amount of holy light aura surged out. Lan Yu retaliated with a palm technique, sending white wildfire towards the black palm strength.
An earthshaking explosion ensued as darkness and light intertwined relentlessly. The fabrics of space were directly torn apart.
The devastating shock waves came one ripple after another.
Amidst the frightening atmosphere, a black-robed cultivator dashed from afar.
“It’s Feng Mo, the Bachelor Sage of the Dark Shadow Religion!”
“Now that the outlawed sky-prides of Holy Light Religion and Dark Shadow Religion are here, should we expect a battle?”
“It’s possible.”
It was a widely known fact that light and darkness were always at odds with one another.
Many crusades between the religions had been fought since archaic times in the name of their beliefs.
“Feng Mo!”
Bai Tianxing froze in surprise. “Your aura seems much stronger now.”
“It’s just my fate. Bai Tianxing, I didn’t expect that you’d let a lady crawl over your head.”
Feng Mo mocked.
Bai Tianxing’s face sunk for a moment before he stared coldly at Feng Mo. “If you’re looking for a fight, I’m more than ready!”
“I’m more interested in this Maiden Sage for now.”
Ignoring Bai Tianxing, Feng Mo averted his attention to Lan Yu, who was staring back at him with an ice-cold gaze.
After all, Feng Mo tried to kill Shang Qingxue and the other Daoists.
It was more than enough to trigger Lan Yu’s murderous intent.
“Holy Maiden Sage, I’ve told you that I’ll kill anyone you wish to protect!”
Feng Mo taunted mischievously.
He did not even know Nangong Huang and the other Daoists, but the more Lan Yu wished to protect them, the more he wanted to kill them!
In fact, it was his first time meeting Lan Yu.
However, if light and darkness could never coexist, then Feng Mo and Lan Yu were destined to be enemies.
“You’re looking for trouble!”
Feng Mo’s remarks had deeply triggered Lan Yu’s murderous intent.
The raging fire of light instantly erupted!
The majestic holy energies surged endlessly from Lan Yu’s body, forcing Feng Mo several steps back into safety.
“You’re strong. No wonder you can get above Bai Tianxing.”
“However, have you experienced the despair of darkness?”
Feng Mo snorted and discharged a powerful dark qi that contrasted with Lan Yu’s holy energy!
As light and darkness could not coexist, an explosion ensued!
The impact of the opposing energies caused the surrounding earth to fissure while the cultivators were forced to retreat outside the battlefield.
“Spear of Judgement!”
Without further delay, Lan Yu unleashed her most powerful technique.
Lan Yu forged a divine spear out of her holy flame and launched it fiercely towards Feng Mo. Its magnitude of power had taken Feng Mo by surprise.
“Sword of Despair!”
Feng Mo drew a black longsword that had several glittering gemstones carved into its handle. Nonetheless, the gemstones were also radiating the presence of pure dark energy.
By focusing the dark energy of despair into his blade, Feng Mo managed to the incoming divine spear by swinging his sword forward.
Boom!
An even more explosion ensued this time.
It blasted both Feng Mo and Lanyu away.
“Dark Realm Annihilation!”
Feng Mo regained his poise and channeled a powerful dark spiritual energy into his longsword.
Boundless Dark Daoist Rhymes released and formed into a frightening sword ray that brought upon utter darkness and destruction in its path!
“Divine Cosmos Illumination!”
Lan Yu lifted her hand where a large concentration of light aura converged into her palm.
A ray of majestic, otherworldly light lit up the entire sky, as if it was the first light that lit up the world!
Light and darkness fought each other in the air until a sky-shattering explosion erupted. It was so loud that even the clouds ten thousand kilometers away tumbled.
Light and darkness dispersed over the realm.
In the end, they both returned to their sources.
“Maiden Sage, let me help you.”
Bai Tianxing said. As the Bachelor Sage of the Holy Light Religion, he had the duty to fight against the Dark Shadow Religion.
Since he offered his hand, the Sword Daoist was keen to join the fight too.
“I won’t stand by and watch you outnumber your opponent.”
Although the Sword Daoist was no ally to the Dark Shadow Religion, he did not mind helping them just for the sake of spiting Lan Yu.
After all, Lan Yu had close ties to Chu Kuangren.
“We don’t welcome anyone who’s related to Chu Kuangren!”
Bai Hongyu said and stood beside Feng Mo.
“Heh. Although I don’t wish to provoke the Holy Light Religion, you can only blame yourself for wanting to protect Chu Kuangren’s disciples.”
Wang Quan stared insignificantly at Lan Yu and the Daoists as he spoke.
“Haha. How can the demonic tribe not get involved with harming Chu Kuangren?”
Touheng leaped to the front. The demonic qi that seethed from his body was almost similar to Feng Mo’s dark qi, except it had another layer of eeriness to it.
The Dark Shadow Religion, Sword Tribe, Wang clan, Bai clan, and the demonic tribe were now working together to defeat Lan Yu!
Bai Tianxing frowned slightly, showing signs of backing out from the battle. “Maiden Sage, this isn’t good. Your Master seems to have offended way too many people.”
Lan Yu ignored his remarks and stood firmly in front of Nangong Huang and the rest. “My stance remains. If you want to hurt them, you’ll have to get past me!”
“If that’s the case, don’t blame us then!”
The Sword Daoist sneered coldly.
Just before the outlawed sky-prides were about to attack.
A majestic longsword, imbued with remarkably sharp sword qi, flew across the horizon and implanted itself firmly in the center of the battlefield.
The boundless sword qi surged out from the sword blade and spread in all directions!
The outlawed sky-prides could not help but retreat under such overwhelming power.
“You’ve surely grown some guts for wanting to hurt my Black Heaven Sect members!”
A firm voice echoed through the realm, as if it was preceding the arrival of a godly being!
