Chapter 1264: 943

Amidst the sneering laughter, the thousand Valiant Death Knights assembled, and soon, a radiance emitted from each of their bodies merged into a hazy likeness of a tortoise and an elephant. The Spear of Orthodoxy, piercing through it, let out a piercing sound, and then, to everyone’s surprise, the spear truly stopped and vibrated continuously in the void.

"What?" The Master of Rules’ beautiful eyes widened in disbelief, how could this be possible?

Regardless of her belief, the Eye of the Firmament coldly commanded, "Change formation, Long Snake Formation, attack—"

The thousand soldiers instantly shifted, forming a long snake-like line, their thousand rays of light converging onto the one at the front, transforming into a pillar of radiance, which blasted towards the Master of Rules.

On the other side, the White-robed Elder’s eyes also widened in disbelief, as he could not fathom that these young Valiant Death Knights possessed such strength.

Ada seemed to know something and muttered, "Valiant Death Knights... Though young, they are not simple, not inferior to those from the previous era, this is troublesome."

The Master of Rules beckoned with a hand, and the "Spear of Orthodoxy" disintegrated into nine rainbow lights, forming nine Spears of Orthodoxy surrounding her, protecting her body.

The thousand Valiant Death Knights who formed the "Long Snake Formation" struck with their radiant attack, hitting the nine Spears of Orthodoxy.

The Spears of Orthodoxy, under attack, released the energy contained within. Nine streams of the Power of Rules erupted, resisting the long rainbow, while the Master of Rules’ body shook like a shooting star, being cast far away towards the White-robed Elder.

She had grown tired of being relentlessly pursued and made up her mind today to completely resolve the issue with this White-robed Elder, including the so-called "Hall of Spirit Heroes."

The Master of Rules finally unleashed her true and most powerful strength. Terrifying Power of Rules enveloped her whole being. After receiving Lei Leian’s Nine Aperture Body, her cultivation improved by leaps and bounds. With the Nine Apertures corresponding to the nine great rules, her understanding and use of the rules reached new levels every day.

Especially from recent life-and-death combat, she had elevated to a realm beyond imagination.

When surrounded by those eight white-robed men and women that day, the Master of Rules had not used her true power out of respect for their past teachings. Now, as she unleashed her true might, the White-robed Elder realized in shock that her cultivation and true ability could undoubtedly match that of a Peak Immortal.

And this was not even considering the additional power of the "Spear of Orthodoxy."

The White-robed Elder immediately understood he was outmatched and retreated in succession. The Sky-gazing Giant Eye in the void spoke coldly, "Second squad, fall in and trap her with the ’Falcon Formation’—"

In the void above, the second group of a thousand moved. Each of their bodies blazed with a dazzling radiance, and a thousand rays of light converged to form a giant falcon intercepting the Master of Rules.

As the Master of Rules saw the White-robed Elder evading and the Valiant Death Knights rushing over, she frowned slightly and sneered, "I dislike killing, but this... this is what you’ve forced upon me—"

Her voice suddenly rose, and with a gesture of her right hand, one of the rule Spears fell into her grasp, "Amidst life and death lies great fear, take this fear... and die—"

In her right hand was the "Spear of Life and Death," one of the nine great rules. The Master of Rules charged towards the radiant giant eagle.

With a thunderous roar that shook the heavens, the Master of Rules bellowed out, "Damn you brats—"

The Life and Death Battle Spear unleashed endless power with the sound of "hiss, hiss, hiss" continuously in the ears, instantly piercing through the bodies of the Valiant Death Knights, skewering them on the spear.

But the Master of Rules had no time to rejoice, for the bodies of the skewered Valiant Death Knights exploded with a terrifying and dazzling light. Along with the other knights, their bodily radiance merged into a sea of light. By the time the Master of Rules realized something was wrong, she was enveloped in a dense array of light, sealed within the space as if being trapped.

"These Valiant Death Knights, something is odd about them—" the Master of Rules gasped in shock. She threw away the Life and Death Battle Spear, brought her hands together, and with an inhalation, she shouted, "Open—" Her palms heavily struck the light pillars in front of her. Instantly, the entire group of a thousand Valiant Death Knights seemed to shake and tremble, as if her blow had struck them all.

"Hmph, brats, scram—" The Master of Rules roared again, causing the entire void to tremble. The bodies of the thousand Valiant Death Knights also erupted with even stronger light, clashing directly with the Master of Rules.

"The first formation, go up—"

The Sky-gazing Giant Eye issued a faint call, and the first group of a thousand Valiant Death Knights surged forward once more. Each one’s body radiated a beam of light, merging with the second group’s, and now the brilliance surrounding the Master of Rules multiplied into two thousand rays.

Two thousand beams of light crisscrossed and wove into a dense network in the blink of an eye, turning the Master of Rules, Ada, into a tiny insect caught in the web. She felt an incredible pressure, one that she couldn’t withstand.

"Damn it, what the hell is this? What exactly are these Valiant Death Knights—"

The Master of Rules let out a roar. Generally speaking, the combined strength of two people should be weaker than the sum of their individual powers. However, the situation before her was different; with an additional thousand Valiant Death Knights, the oppression she felt was not merely doubled but increased manifold. She could easily handle a thousand knights and maintained the upper hand, but now she was suddenly under so much pressure that she no longer had the strength to fight back.

"Spear of Orthodoxy—"

Left with no other choice, the Master of Rules had to call upon the Spear of Orthodoxy once again.

Nine War Spears transformed into nine beams of light, which then fused together; out of which, the crystal blue Spear of Orthodoxy emerged and instantly pierced through the rank of two thousand Valiant Death Knights.

With a sizzle, a breach was instantly made in the dreadful formation, and the Master of Rules let out a sigh of relief, seizing the Spear of Orthodoxy and swinging it forcefully.

The fearsome blue glow was released with a boom, severing the waists of over a hundred Valiant Death Knights.

From the bisected Death Knights sprang a great amount of radiance, which flowed toward the other bodies around them. Soon after, those Death Knights who received the light became even more dazzling, and their strength increased exponentially. As a result, even though a hundred of them had perished, the overall combat power of these knights did not diminish.

Ada watched, nodding subtly to herself, "Indeed, the Hall of Spirit Heroes used the same methods to train these knights as in the previous era. These poor Death Knights have been stripped of the right to exist independently; their souls have been fused into a collective entity, each knight merely a part of this larger being... They no longer have the right to exist independently..."

Ada sighed inwardly, her thoughts turning to the Eskimos who, in some ways, shared a similar form of existence with these Valiant Death Knights. However, the Eskimos were naturally born, while these Death Knights were artificially trained, with a degree of terror surpassing that of Demons.

Ada reflected on this, but despite the terrifying nature of these Valiant Death Knights, the Master of Rules was indeed immensely powerful, especially now that she seemed able to employ some of the Spear of Orthodoxy’s power. The speed of her advancement was so fast that even Ada shook her head privately. The current Master of Rules was far more formidable than when she went to rescue Ao Lei and Feng Ya.

Clearly, the consecutive battles had fully activated and accelerated the fusion of the Master of Rules with Lei Leian’s body. For the Master of Rules, this Nine Aperture Body, ostensibly perfect for her, had its potential fully unleashed. Each aperture resonated vaguely with a power of the Rules, and with each breath, the Power of Rules responded. The Master of Rules felt herself approaching a mysterious realm, feeling that she could transcend at any moment.

With such an enigmatic sensation, the Master of Rules wielded the Spear of Orthodoxy and casually swung it again, immediately claiming the lives of another hundred Valiant Death Knights.

The deaths of these hundred Death Knights sparked a blaze of radiance which was then absorbed by the surrounding knights, invoking even greater power within them.

The Master of Rules paid no mind; the two groups of Valiant Death Knights in front of her could no longer stop her. A cold laugh escaped her lips, and suddenly, with an explosive force, she propelled her body forward, and whoosh—the Spear of Orthodoxy was thrown.

Like a flash of lightning, like a vibrant rainbow, the White-robed Elder roared in fury, followed by an explosion of his body, bursting into thousands of blood droplets.

With one strike of the Spear of Orthodoxy, its power undeniable, he had no time to react before he was obliterated on the spot.

The "Sky-gazing Giant Eye" in the void fell silent, watching the Master of Rules dominate the scene. In front of countless mighty beings, she casually slaughtered two hundred Valiant Death Knights and struck down the White-robed Elder—a display of unrivaled might.

Having slain the White-robed Elder, the Master of Rules beckoned the Spear of Orthodoxy back into her hand and looked up coldly at the Sky-gazing Giant Eye in the sky, saying, "Allies of the Hall of Spirit Heroes, do you wish to continue the battle? However, just these few Death Knights won’t suffice; call up the rest, or perhaps, you’d care to try your hand personally?"

The Sky-gazing Giant Eye narrowed slightly, as if provoked by the Master of Rules’ arrogance. Yet he did not show much anger, but instead smiled faintly and said, "As entrusted by that one, I shall indeed capture you today. Never has the Hall of Spirit Heroes failed, not even if you are a true god... it’s the same..."

"Each team, form up, go—" The Sky-gazing Giant Eye suddenly raised its voice, commanding coldly, and the remaining eight teams of Valiant Death Knights, together with the previous two teams, nearly ten thousand in total, rushed crazily from all directions, fearlessly charging at the Master of Rules.

The Master of Rules shook her head in resignation and said, "If you insist on embracing death, then I shall oblige you—" (To be continued, for subsequent developments, please log in to www.qidian.com. More Chapters are available, support the author, support genuine reading!)
