The Sword of the Divine Dao
As the black light dissipated, the attacker was revealed to be an old man dressed in a black robe, exuding an indescribable chill. The Vicious Qi surrounding him vibrated at a mysterious frequency, affecting the heartbeats of those nearby, causing their hearts to pound in unison.
Zhao Jin's pupils contracted, and he hurriedly whispered to Si Ming, "He is Wanyan Huang, the sect leader of the Gu Witch Sect. He is proficient in all kinds of Gu techniques and witchcraft, and his cultivation is unfathomable. At least seven Spirit Transformation Grandmaster from the Li State have died at his hands."
After searching high and low without finding him, Si Ming, the main target of his investigation, stared intently, memorizing the man's appearance and aura.
Wanyan Huang glanced at the Canglang cavalrymen who were fighting amongst themselves, then waved his hand, sending out a green mist that smelled of herbs and had the effect of detoxifying and warding off evil.
However, the wolf cavalry only paused slightly upon touching the green mist before resuming their battle, showing no signs of escaping their demonic state.
Who exactly are you?
Having just been praised by the enemy, he then made a mistake. Even with his deep and Wanyan Huang mind, Wanyan Guo couldn't help but feel embarrassed and annoyed. He immediately swung his staff and unleashed a burst of black fire, burning the remaining less than a quarter of the wounded Black Wolf cavalry to death.
With his hands behind his back, Si Ming said leisurely, "What's the point of knowing the answer? I'm just a hero who's doing this out of interest. I happened to be passing by and had a less-than-pleasant encounter with you. Wouldn't it be a perfect ending if we just parted ways? Why delve into it?"
Wanyan Huang understood the warning in the other party's words; as long as he didn't persist, the other party would not attack again.
It seemed like a way to cut losses, and for the sake of the bigger picture, it was wise to swallow one's anger for a moment, at least avoiding provoking three more powerful enemies at the Nascent Spirit Transformation level. However, Wanyan Huang glanced at the heavily wounded Canglang cavalry, especially the cavalry commander who was initially blasted into the air and exploded to death, and a surge of anger welled up uncontrollably.
This is his most prized grandson!
"You think you can just barge into our Great Qian army formation, cause a ruckus, and walk away? You're being far too naive!"
Wanyan Huang suddenly soared into the air, raising his obsidian staff high. Dark Vicious Qi surged and churned, and a lion king seal appeared behind him. His aura rapidly rose, reaching the level of Void Returning Great Grandmaster of the Returning to Emptiness.
A majestic lion's roar echoed through the void, unleashing a powerful pressure that instantly turned Zhao Jin and Baoyun pale, their bodies swaying precariously. Meanwhile, the Barbarian Race soldiers were greatly encouraged, raising their arms and shouting, "The might of the Barbarian King!"
"Oh, this must be the Fist Intent left on you by that Heavenly Lion King," Si Ming sensed.
Wanyan Huang said in a deep voice, "This Fist Intent was originally intended to kill Mu Wu, but you have gone too far. I can only ask you to take the blame."
He unleashed his full power, adding his own strength to the foundation of the Heavenly Lion King Fist Intent. In an instant, the wind and clouds changed color, Vicious Qi surged like a sea, as if a ghostly prison had descended.
"You think you can kill me with just the Fist Intent of Void Returning Great Grandmaster Realm?"
Si Ming shrugged, clenched his fist, and said nonchalantly, "Your illusions will be shattered by my right hand."
Chapter 879 The Sword of the Divine Dao
Although it would be a good time to use the "Return Evil, Turn Radiance, Shift the Stars" technique to reverse the situation, if he did so, the sect leader of the Witch Gu Sect would surely die. Si Ming had no choice but to abandon this tempting idea. He immediately pointed to the sky, and a brilliant Sword-Ray pierced through the clouds.
"Antarctic Immortality, Sword Gathering in the Divine Firmament!"
This is an unparalleled Divine Dao Swordsmanship called the "Sword Scripture of the Six Imperial Sovereigns," which is based on the Six Imperial Heavenly Emperors: the Jade Emperor of the Jade Emperor of Vast Heaven and Golden Palace, the Great Emperor of Heaven of Gouchen's Upper Palace the North Pole of the Central Heaven, the Great Emperor Qinghua of the Eastern Pole, the Great Emperor of Longevity of the Southern Pole, and the Earthly Deity Who Houtu the Mandate of Heaven and Emulates the Law.
The Divine Dao Sword-Ray rapidly transformed into the phantom of the Great Emperor of Longevity of the Southern Pole. His three-hundred-foot-tall body was incredibly conspicuous even on the empty battlefield, instantly attracting the attention of everyone on the battlefield.
The Divine Dao Path places great importance on appearance; only by immediately aweing people can one gather their will. Therefore, this Great Emperor of Longevity of the Southern Pole emitted an extremely bright red light from the back of his head, exuding extraordinary majesty. His body was surrounded by the power of countless stars, as if he were wearing a galaxy-like star robe. The thunderous Sword Qi emanating from him was vast and boundless, stretching for hundreds of miles, and in the blink of an eye, it transformed into a silver-white aerial forest, truly embodying the meaning of "divine grace as vast as the sea, divine might as towering as a mountain."
In terms of sheer power, the Great Emperor of Longevity summoned by Si Ming completely suppressed the Heavenly Lion King's Fist Intent, and in the aura sensed by others, Wanyan Huang's presence was no longer felt.
Amidst the chaos of the battlefield, Mu Wu glanced up at the sky, then immediately looked away and ordered, "Don't get distracted! This is an opportunity created for us by our allies. Break through immediately, don't delay!"
Within ten breaths, several messengers skilled in sonic techniques relayed the order to every soldier of the Mu Family Army. The entire army was immediately invigorated, and the Sha Qi they emitted condensed into arrow-shaped air barriers, piercing through the Barbarian Race defenses with unstoppable force.
"Beast Transformation: Lion, Qilin, Elephant!"
Wanyan Huang combined the Fist Intent of the Heavenly Lion King with his own cultivation, unleashing a torrent of malevolent Vicious Qi that swept across all directions. This energy condensed into millions of ferocious beasts and poisonous insects, which roared and pounded out. This attack combined the power of the two of them. He was confident that even if the Barbarian King were facing him, he would have to retreat and avoid the sharp edge.
With a shout of "Divine Sky, "Si Ming slashed down with his sword finger. The Great Emperor of Longevity raised his eyebrows in anger, and endless thunderous Sword Qi surged down, like a raging tide of converging stars.
With a deafening roar, the earth trembled violently. Thunderous Sword Qi clashed and clashed with ferocious beasts and poisonous insects. The Barbarian Race army on the ground was affected by the shockwave, causing men and horses to fall, morale to waver, and the army's formation to fall into chaos.
Wanyan Huang ignored the casualties of his own troops, focusing instead on unleashing his Vicious Qi energy. Countless ferocious beasts and poisonous insects blocked the rain of thunderous swords, creating the appearance of a counterattack.
"What's the use of having a strong presence? It's just a sheep's skin with nothing but empty shells."
"Ha, you're nothing but a bully relying on your master's power. Where do you get the nerve to spout such arrogant nonsense?" Si Ming sneered. "I was going to give you some face, but since you're so ungrateful, don't blame me for exposing your sheep's clothing."
With a clang, Si Ming drew his sword and slashed down. In the intertwining of light and darkness, a lightning-like crack appeared, Blink between the sword light and the Vicious Qi. In that instant, the whole world seemed to collapse, making people tremble with fear.
Thunder roared and beasts howled. In a realm almost no one could see clearly, the two sides had already exchanged blows thousands of times in the blink of an eye. The barbarian soldiers stopped fighting and looked up at the surging Vicious Qi, the annihilating lightning, the space that was cleaved open, and the earth that was torn apart. The black and white energy swirled and rolled in a ring, threatening to devour everything around them.
Under the orders of their commanders at all levels, the Mu Family Army charged headlong in the opposite direction without looking back, even the sound of their clashing energies was enough to make their hearts flutter.
"The Purple Star in the Central Heaven, the sword divides the warp and weft!"
In an instant, a purple sword light suddenly appeared and slashed down from the sky. Whether it was the Silver Forest or the ferocious beasts and poisonous insects, they were all easily cut apart by this One Sword. The black and white space shattered, and accompanied by Wanyan Huang's impotent and furious roar, the sky collapsed and the earth cracked in the blink of an eye.
Amidst the rampaging energy, Wanyan Huang's wounded body flew out. The obsidian staff in his hand had been severed by a sharp divine weapon, leaving only a bare wooden stick. There was also a clear sword mark on his chest.
"The Heavenly Lion Barbarian King is nothing special; the Witch Gu Sect is no match for him, hahaha..."
Amidst laughter, Si Ming flicked his sleeve, sweeping up Zhao Jin and Baoyun, and broke through the encirclement. Seeing this, Xia Guanxue and Ying Zhou immediately made their moves to force their opponents back, and then followed suit.
The Silver Wolf King and the Colorful Butterfly King knew that they were experts of the same level. If the other party wanted to leave, it would be difficult for them to stop him. In addition, they were also shocked by the earth-shattering attack just now. Therefore, they did not pursue him and watched as Si Ming and his group joined the Mu Family Army and left.
"What happened to keeping a low profile?"
Ying Zhou, filled with rage at being deceived, angrily questioned him.
Si Ming chuckled twice and explained, "It's just that plans can't keep up with changes. You have to be adaptable to circumstances and not just follow the script. Under the circumstances at the time, I couldn't afford to be low-key. In fact, the other party didn't want me to be low-key, so I was forced into it."
"Bah!" Ying Zhou refused to believe it. "I think you're just trying to fool us into keeping a low profile so you can create an opportunity for yourself to shine, and make us your foils."
"Look at what you're saying. If I wanted to show off, would I need to tell you to keep a low profile? When the moon shines brightly, even fireflies are few and far between." Si Ming patted the other person on the shoulder and said earnestly, "Young comrade, you need to know your place."
