Chapter 2494: The Former Scion and Scioness

The Ominous Blade fell, and the ground sank for thousands of miles. The world was muddy as if it had turned into a chaotic scene from the beginning of time.

The silver lightning did not die immediately. It continued to travel between heaven and earth, and its energy fluctuations were extremely great.

All the cultivators, including the Paramount Realm Supreme Saint, avoided it and did not dare to touch it. One had to know that the Ominous Palace’s High Priest and the two guardians had died under Xue Lingxian’s lightning bolt.

Lord Wu Yue, sent flying by the stone sword, fell a thousand miles away. His body was still upright as he looked at the interweaving silver lightning bolts in the pitch-black and chaotic space. His expression was solemn as he said, “Grand Destructive Lightning.”

On the back of Genbu’s divine corpse.

Duan Lingfeng’s expression changed as he said, “He’s so powerful. I’m afraid that even Wuma Jiuxing might not be his match. This person’s strength has exceeded my expectations.”

“The Ominous Palace’s High Priest died just like that, and the two guardians were turned into ashes. The Paramount Realm Supreme Saint was said to be immortal. If a god did not appear, he would not die. This meant that he was the strongest in the mortal world. Why was his life force not that strong?”Shang Yue was stunned. She was slightly dazed.

......

Duan Lingfeng said, “If the Paramount Realm Supreme Saint wanted to escape or threatened to self-destruct the Sainthood Source, the god would not appear, and he would not die. However, powerhouses like Wuma Jiuxing and Xue Lingxian are too powerful. They are not much weaker than gods. They can no longer be called Paramount Realm Supreme Saints.”

Pseudo gods were also gods.

There were more than twenty Paramount Realm Supreme Saints from the Destiny Division and the four great divine palaces. At that moment, all of them viewed Xue Lingxian as their greatest enemy.

Swoosh

Swoosh

…

Many bright Gates of Destiny shone towards Xue Lingxian like more than 20 suns.

Countless Precepts of Destiny fell on Xue Lingxian like trillions of shackles.

The territory that had become dilapidated, chaotic, and dark was reshaped by the Light of Destiny.

The turbid ones sank while the clear ones rose.

The sacred mountain rose, and the sacred lake rippled.

The world became a vibrant fairyland, but it was a cage that suppressed Xue Lingxian.

Even a top Supreme Saint would lose his power and cultivation and eventually revert to mortal status when illuminated by the Gate of Destiny of more than 20 Paramount Realm Supreme Saints.

Zhang Ruochen was worried. Although Xue Lingxian was strong, he couldn’t fight against more than 20 Paramount Realm Supreme Saints simultaneously.

If they are called supreme, who was weak?

Xue Lingxian had awoken once and used the manifestation of the sacred will to save Zhang Ruochen. Therefore, Zhang Ruochen had a good impression of him.

“Hmph!”

Dense golden characters appeared on the stone sword of the?Wordless Sword Manual?in Xue Lingxian’s hand.

Each character turned into a small golden person brandishing a sword.

In an instant, a surge of sword Qi exploded and cut off the Precepts of Destiny that enveloped him.

The golden light turned into a path of light that broke through the Light of Destiny and struck a Paramount Realm Supreme Saint.

BOOM!

The Gate of Destiny behind the Supreme Saint of the Paramount Realm was instantly destroyed. His aura was extinguished as blood splattered everywhere. Only fragments of the sacred armor fell from the sky.

“He actually broke through the Light of Destiny! Is the stone sword in his hand really just a sword manual?” Some cultivators were so shocked that their minds went blank. They felt that the man holding the stone sword was the world’s god. He was invincible.

Who could fight against him below divinity?

“Let’s attack together. We must destroy the prestige of the Fane of Destiny today.”

“Let’s fight and take the Tensho Compass.”

“Haha, Lord Canghai is mine. Let’s settle the score today.”

…

The top powerhouses of the ten major dark forces took out their powerful weapons. They used talismans and saint techniques to attack the more than twenty Gates of Destiny floating in the sky.

The precepts of heaven and earth within tens of thousands of miles were again thrown into chaos.

Space shattered, and the earth sank.

The ten major dark forces didn’t care who the Tensho Compass ended up with. As long as it wasn’t in the hands of the Fane of Destiny, it was fine. Otherwise, they would still be unable to sleep or eat in peace and terrified every day.

Of course, if the Tensho Compass ended up in their hands, that would be for the best.

Xue Lingxian completely broke free from the Precepts of Destiny and walked toward Gong Nanfeng and the three high priests. The light emitted from her body reflected the sky and earth into a silver color.

The killing intent and viciousness were enough to freeze the Supreme Saint’s heart.

The three high priests summoned a treasured artifact from the divine palace and activated it. Instantly, the three Supreme Artifacts exploded with the power of a Supreme Being. The three Gates of Destiny rose, and the three Precept Domains formed the images of three worlds.

Each of the three high priests was an entity that shook the entire world. When they arrived in the world, they were worshiped by millions of cultivators.

At that moment, when the three of them joined forces, their aura was weaker than that of Xue Lingxian.

BOOM! BOOM! BOOM!

Xue Lingxian walked into the Precept Domains of the three high priests. Using his own precepts, he clashed with the precepts of the three, creating a series of explosive sounds that sounded like thunder and divine roars.

The three Supreme Artifacts clashed with the stone swords of the?Wordless Sword Manual. Chaotic power erupted, causing the mountains 100,000 kilometers away to shake as if they were about to collapse.

The stars in the sky were also shaking as if they were about to fall.

The three Supreme Artifacts and the three Precept Domains could not stop Xue Lingxian’s footsteps, and the distance between them was getting closer and closer.

Pan Ruo and Que planned to immediately take Gong Nanfeng away, but Gong Nanfeng insisted on staying. He said, “Cultivators of the Fane of Destiny, how can they retreat in fear?”

“The three high priests can’t stop Xue Lingxian. Since you’re not going to escape, take out your Divine Artifacts and use them to kill him,” Que said coldly.

Gong Nanfeng shook his head and said, “Don’t touch the Divine Artifact unless you have no other choice.”

“Now is the time,” Que said.

Gong Nanfeng shook his head and pointed to the horizon.

On the horizon, the flames started to burn, giving off a dazzling light like the appearance of the sunset.

Lord Wu Yue rushed out from the crimson sunset and shouted, “The Destiny Division protects the Fane of Destiny. Anyone who dares to offend us will be killed without mercy.”

He held the Destiny Halberd and pierced through Xue Lingxian’s silver Precept Domain. The flames in his eyes burned and exploded with unparalleled destructive power.

The shadow of the Fane of Destiny appeared around the Destiny Halberd.

The power of the fane transcended space and time and buffed him.

“Oh no! Xue Lingxian is already struggling to fight against the three high priests alone. Lord Wu Yue’s halberd carries the Qi of the Fane of Destiny. Its power can destroy anything. Xue Lingxian…”

Zhang Ruochen looked at Granny Begonia. He didn’t understand why she hadn’t made a move at such a critical moment?

Was there another powerful figure hiding in the dark to restrain her?

Lord Wu Yue was second only to Zhuo Yunong in the Fane of Destiny. He was the leader of the ten great Lords of Destiny. His combat strength was at the pinnacle of divinity. He carried a Supreme Artifact and unleashed the power of the fane. Wuma Jiuxing had to use all his strength to block this halberd without using his saber.

The three high priests naturally understood that the halberd of Lord Wu Yue was a sure-kill move that could threaten even pseudo gods to a certain extent.

Therefore, they unleashed an even more brutal attack, preventing Xue Lingxian from being distracted.

Boom

The Destiny Halberd struck a thousand feet away from Xue Lingxian, and a blood-red cocoon net appeared in the void.

It was the defense of the Undying Blood Silkworm.

Lord Wu Yue’s unparalleled power broke through the cocoon net with a bang.

The Destiny Halberd stabbed into Xue Lingxian’s back, and the sacred robe on his body instantly shattered and turned into dust.

Lord Wu Yue thought he had succeeded and could kill Xue Lingxian with one strike.

Suddenly, he found two patterns on Xue Lingxian’s back, which looked like two butterfly wings.

When the Destiny Halberd hit it, Xue Lingxian’s body exploded and turned into thousands of blood-red butterflies. The butterflies quickly gathered in the air and condensed into his figure.

At this moment, Xue Lingxian had returned to his human-headed and snake-like appearance, and there was a pair of blood-red butterfly wings on his back.

His face was slightly pale, and it was evident that he had not completely neutralized the attack from Lord Wu Yue. However, his eyes became more and more fierce, and he held the stone sword with both hands.

The sword hacked down like a mountain ridge.

Boom

Lord Wu Yue failed to take on this attack. The skin on his body instantly exploded, and he sank to the ground. Only his skeleton and part of his flesh and blood remained. It was ferocious and terrifying. He had suffered serious injuries.

‘How can he be so strong…’ Lord Wu Yue thought.

Xue Lingxian’s second strike had already hacked down. With a boom, Lord Wu Yue’s arms and spine broke. His skeleton collapsed and turned into a pile of flesh and blood beyond recognition. He had lost his human form.

Xue Lingxian was about to strike down the third strike to destroy Lord Wu Yue’s life force.

Suddenly, he sensed something and stopped holding the stone sword. He raised his head to look at the black clouds and shouted, “The Fane of Destiny is known as the number one and supreme in the world. Why? To deal with me, you actually want to launch a sneak attack?”

If he had struck down that sword strike just now, the person hiding in the clouds would definitely take the opportunity to attack.

The threat from the person in the clouds was even greater than that of Lord Wu Yue.

“What?”

“He’s hiding in the clouds? How is that possible? Why didn’t I sense it?”

…

The Supreme Saints of the ten major dark forces, including Duan Lingfeng and the others on Genbu’s divine corpse, were all covered in cold sweat because they didn’t sense it. How high must the other party’s cultivation be to be able to hide from their senses?

Duan Lingfeng’s spiritual power was powerful. After sensing it carefully, his expression changed. He muttered to himself, “How could it be him?”

Whoosh

A starry sky appeared in the black clouds.

The starry sky was very close to the ground. Massive planets could be clearly seen, emitting a power as powerful as an actual planet.

A man in a yellow robe stood in the center of the starry sky. His body was thousands of feet tall as if a god had descended into the world. He waved his hand, and the Ominous Blade that had fallen to the ground flew into his hand.

He touched the blade and said calmly, “You have committed an unforgivable crime by killing the Ominous Palace’s High Priest.”

Fortune Palace’s High Priest was both surprised and surprised. He said, “How could it be him? He actually came to Hoth.”

The ten Supreme Saints of the Dark Forces saw the man standing in the center of the starry sky, and they were all terrified. They even regretted coming to take the Tensho Compass today.

How could the Fane of Destiny not know someone was coming to take the Tensho Compass?

How could they not set up an inescapable net by deliberately fishing?

But it was too late to regret now. If they didn’t take the Tensho Compass, they would have to bear the wrath of the Fane of Destiny. They couldn’t escape even if they wanted to.

Nothing could hide under the Tensho Compass.

Xue Lingxian asked, “Who is it?”

“The Fane of Destiny, Xingluo,” said the man standing in the starry sky.

Zhang Ruochen was enlightened. No wonder the power was so mighty that all the Supreme Saints were shocked. It turned out that this man was the former Scion of the Fane of Destiny, Xingluo.

Every thousand years, the Fane of Destiny would select a Scion or a Scioness.

Some cultivated to become gods, and some retired behind the scenes and disappeared from the world after a thousand years.

Xing Luo was one of the Scions who had yet to break through to divinity.

He had a divine body and could mobilize divine power. Still, he had yet to reach divinity because he was a Corpusian. A spirit born after the death of a god.

It was not because he was not powerful enough that he had yet to break through to divinity. After all, a person who could become the Scion of the Fane of Destiny must be the top existence of that era. He could also obtain cultivation resources that ordinary people could not get.

Some cultivators were not in a perfect state of mind.

Some wanted to accumulate more knowledge. That way, the number of divine planets would increase after becoming a deity.

Some did not want to become a deity because they were still attached to the mortal realm.

…

The appearance of the Xing Luo made all the cultivators in the Fane of Destiny feel relieved.

Lord Wu Yue, beaten into a pile of minced meat, propped up his body again and returned to his original form. However, he was extremely weak and was led over by the three high priests. Then, he swallowed a sacred pill and began to heal his injuries.

The two strikes from Xue Lingxian had almost destroyed his foundation of becoming a deity.

Pan Ruo stared at Gong Nanfeng and said, “Scion Xingluo, did you invite him?”

Gong Nanfeng smiled apologetically with an apologetic look. “Please don’t blame me, my Lady Scioness. After all, whether it is to encircle the ten major dark forces or search for the Fane of Origin, they are all of great importance. We can not afford to lose them.”

Pan Ruo said, “Who else is coming?”

Gong Nanfeng pointed at the colorful cloud in the distance.

A woman also appeared at some point in time on the colorful cloud, apart from the hunchbacked Granny Begonia. She was extremely mysterious, and her entire body was emitting a dark radiance. No one could see her appearance clearly.

“The former Scioness, Yu Qianchen,” Pan Ruo said.

All the Scions and Scionesses who retired after a thousand years would disappear from the world. From then on, they would focus on cultivating and comprehending the Path. Before becoming gods, they would no longer interfere in the Fane of Destiny and the Infernal Court matters.

If the existence of the former Scions and Scionesses was too great, it would not be a good thing for the Fane of Destiny. It would cause internal strife between the former and the latter. At the same time, it would also damage the prestige of the new Scioness.

This was the reason why Gong Nanfeng expressed his apology to Pan Ruo!

Xing Luo raised his voice. “Now, there is only one Scioness in the Fane of Destiny. All the cultivators have to listen to her. There is no longer a Scion called Xing Luo in the world. I shouldn’t have appeared here, but the cultivators of the ten major dark forces want to seize the Divine Artifact when the Fane of Destiny is in transition, and the Jadeite Realm is opening. It is undoubtedly a capital crime.”

“My Lady Scioness, please give the order. Today, the Fane of Destiny will destroy all heretics present.”

Yu Qianchen, standing in front of Granny Begonia, grabbed the Divine Ghost Mask and put it on her face. Instantly, the power on her delicate body rose as if she was possessed by a god.

Ominous Palace’s High Priest could only activate the Divine Ghost Mask, but she dared to put it on her face and make it a part of her battle strength. The difference between the two was self-evident.

She was also waiting for Pan Ruo’s order.

“Then let’s fight!” Pan Ruo said.
