Grave Peril: He Xiangu Fell into Crisis
"Boom!"
The two collided, unleashing a deafening roar, a sound like rolling thunder, so loud it shook the entire city.
Upon hearing this thunderous sound, countless cultivators couldn't help but cover their ears. Their expressions changed drastically, and their minds were shaken. Some of the more timid ones were almost shaken to the point of their souls being scattered.
Under the force of a single blow, the Azure Lotus Immortal Emperor and his subordinates were all shaken, coughing up blood, their bodies unsteady, and their auras becoming chaotic, making them appear on the verge of collapse.
Seeing this, the Patriarch Azure Lotus was stunned, his brows furrowed, and his eyes were filled with doubt. He was clearly not expected that He Xiangu, this girl, would be so powerful. With just one strike, she shattered his attack, and judging from He Xiangu's appearance, she seemed to have no energy depleted.
"Little girl, I didn't expect you to be so strong, actually managing to withstand my sword strike. I admire you very much."
Patriarch Azure Lotus showed a look of appreciation on his face, and then spoke with praise.
The praise from the Patriarch Azure Lotus was entirely genuine. In such a brief exchange, He Xiangu's ability to withstand such a powerful attack from the Azure Patriarch Azure Lotus indeed quite surprising to him.
"Hmph, Patriarch Azure Lotus, you despicable villain, you actually took advantage of the situation to ambush me! You are utterly despicable and shameless, not only despicable, but also utterly vile and vile."
"That's right, Patriarch Azure Lotus! We've always respected you as our mentor, but it turns out you're such a despicable person! Your shameless and despicable behavior has truly disgraced the Azure Lotus Immortal Ancestor Sect!"
Hearing the praise from the Patriarch Azure Lotus, He Xiangu's face also showed a proud look. She knew in her heart that with her strength, she was no match for the Patriarch Azure Lotus. The only thing she could do now was to buy some time until Lü Dongbin came out of seclusion, then she would be safe.
"Hmph, you bunch of good-for-nothings, since when did it become your place to judge my affairs? I'll see what you're capable of today!"
Upon hearing He Xiangu's words, the Patriarch Azure Lotus's face immediately darkened. What he hated most was being called an ant in front of him; it was an immense insult, and for the Patriarch Azure Lotus, it was an extremely infuriating matter.
"Boom!"
Anger flashed across the face of the Patriarch Azure Lotus, and he instantly charged towards He Xiangu. The Azure Lotus Immortal Power and Law Treasure that erupted from the Patriarch Azure Lotus swept towards He Xiangu in an instant.
In the blink of an eye, the Patriarch Azure Lotus arrived beside He Xiangu. With a wave of his right hand, the Patriarch Azure Lotus unleashed a massive longsword, leaving behind a trail of afterimages in the air. More than a dozen sword shadows flashed out in an instant, enveloping He Xiangu's body and slashing down fiercely. Each Sword-Ray contained terrifying destructive power, its might awe-inspiring.
Seeing this, the onlookers couldn't help but swallow hard. They had never seen the Patriarch Azure Lotus use such a domineering and terrifying move before. Even the disciples of the Azure Lotus Sect were shocked as they watched the Sword-Ray slashing down at them.
The disciples of the Azure Lotus Sect who were watching all turned pale and their faces were filled with panic as they watched the terrifying Sword-Ray slashing down towards them. Their eyes were wide open.
The elders of the Azure Lotus Sect also turned pale, their eyes filled with fear, and their gazes toward He Xiangu were full of apprehension.
The Azure Lotus Sect disciples looked at He Xiangu's beautiful eyes, their expressions shifting, their eyes flashing with intense jealousy. They were filled with He Xiangu, jealousy, and hatred, wishing they were the ones being attacked by the Patriarch Azure Lotus.
"Little girl, you're going to die! These Azure Lotus Immortal Sword are powerful, but they're nothing to me. I can easily destroy them with just fifty percent of their power."
As he spoke, the Patriarch Azure Lotus once again swung his long sword. Streaks of azure light, like green snakes, snaked and coiled in the void, carrying an overwhelming killing intent as they slammed down on He Xiangu. The terrifying power seemed to tear space apart, causing the surrounding void to distort violently and emit sharp whistling sounds.
Upon seeing those cyan Sword-Ray, the disciples watching couldn't help but feel a slight chill, their eyes filled with worry as they looked at He Xiangu.
In their view, He Xiangu was definitely in grave danger this time, because they knew very well that the Patriarch Azure Lotus's move was extremely powerful. Even a Peak Saint Rank expert would likely perish if he encountered it. Even if He Xiangu possessed a ninth-grade Sage Artifact, they couldn't guarantee that she could withstand the Patriarch Azure Lotus's attack.
Meanwhile, in the distant valley, Lü Dongbin and the others saw the attack from the Patriarch Azure Lotus, and their expressions changed slightly, becoming much more solemn.
In the eyes of Lü Dongbin and the others, the attack of the Patriarch Azure Lotus had already surpassed the strength of an ordinary Saint King Realm, and was even a first-rate existence among the Saint Lord Realm. Lü Dongbin and the others did not expect that the Patriarch Azure Lotus would actually break through to the Saint Emperor Realm.
"Damn it, this old man's strength has actually broken through."
Seeing the terrifying attack from the Patriarch Azure Lotus, Lü Dongbin's face was filled with anger, his eyes were filled with cold killing intent, and he stared at the Patriarch Azure Lotus with a gloomy expression.
The strength of the Patriarch Azure Lotus had reached the Saint King Realm, which was a very serious blow to Lü Dongbin. Lü Dongbin never expected that the Patriarch Azure Lotus could break through to the Saint Emperor Realm. This guy was simply too heaven-defying.
Compared to the Patriarch Azure Lotus, Lü Dongbin's strength was far inferior, and he had no way to contend with him. This immediately filled Lü Dongbin with a deep sense of apprehension, and his gaze towards the Azure Patriarch Azure Lotus much more serious, his face full of vigilance.
Looking at the dense, descending azure Azure Lotus Sword-Ray, resembling a dark cloud, He Xiangu remained calm and composed, staring intently at the Sword-Ray. She knew that as long as she could withstand them even slightly, the Patriarch Azure Lotus would surely be defeated.
Thinking of this, He Xiangu's lips curled into a cold smile as she looked at the Patriarch Azure Lotus and said, "Patriarch Azure Lotus, do you really think that just because your cultivation has reached the Saint Emperor Realm, you can deal with me? Hmph, you are overestimating your strength far too much."
