Chapter 540: Chapter 535 Crisis

"Your strength isn’t much greater than the one before, so where do you get this confidence that you can defeat me?"

Sect Luo appeared at Ye Xuan’s original position, blocking the Sound Saint’s path.

"I had intended to deal with that annoying brat first, but since you, this demon, wish to be taken care of before him, I’ll oblige."

The Sound Saint sneered, and then, with a flip of his palm, an ancient black compass emerged from between his fingers.

A tremendously powerful fluctuation instantly emanated from this black compass.

"What, isn’t that the same item that Ling Yu Saint just used... the Heavenly Python Plate?!"

Seeing this black compass, everyone was taken aback; wasn’t this the very item that Ling Yu Saint had just employed? How did it come to be in the hands of the Sound Saint?

"This isn’t the same item!"

Ye Xuan’s expression darkened, and then his pupils suddenly constricted.

"Kid, you’ve got some keen eyes."

The smile on the Sound Saint’s face grew thicker, "Indeed, this is not the item from Ling Yu’s hands, because what he held was merely a fake. This one here is the true form of the Holy Artifact, the Heavenly Python Plate!"

These words, like thunder, resounded wildly over the plaza.

"What, the true form?"

Whether it was the Xuantian Sect, the Daluo Heavenly Palace, or the Holy Demon Cave Heaven, almost everyone was shocked. The true form of the Heavenly Python Plate, that was a veritable Holy Artifact! An object so formidable, it approached the Strange Object List. To think the Sound Saint had actually brought out such a treasure, he’d truly invested a hefty sum.

Consider that even within the Emperor Xi Sect, there might not be more than five individuals who had entered the Martial Saint Realm. Now, they had deployed two at once, and brought along a Holy Artifact. With such a terrifying lineup, how many forces on the continent could withstand them?

"With Lord Sound here, no matter how the Xuantian Sect jumps about, its fate of destruction is unavoidable!"

Sima Yan’s face was alight with joy; the Sound Saint had even brought the Heavenly Python Plate’s true form. If the Xuantian Sect didn’t perish this time, there would be no justice in the world.

"Others, prepare to follow up; after Lord Sound prevails, start the slaughter of the Xuantian Sect’s people! Each and every one of them harbors their own schemes and will not truly submit. Make sure to be thorough and leave no survivors."

After the ordeal just now, the Green Lotus Half-Saint and the Flame Half-Saint had reached a consensus to wipe out all the high-level members of the Xuantian Sect. Only then, could they truly control the sect.

"Kill! Especially that Ye Xuan brat; he must be the first to die! Without him, we wouldn’t have suffered so many setbacks and such heavy losses."

Wuchang harbored a deep-seated hatred for Ye Xuan. He should have been the mastermind of this great battle, but he was injured early on by Ye Xuan, and currently didn’t even have the opportunity to strike. If it weren’t for the Sound Saint’s appearance, they would likely become homeless dogs.

"That’s right, Ye Xuan, that little bastard, is the root of all trouble! He must be subjected to the death by a thousand cuts to quell the hatred in our hearts!"

Chu Kuang, Yang Wei, and others also shouted fiercely. In their view, if it were not for Ye Xuan, they would not have fallen to such a state, and Lord Wind had been indirectly killed because of Ye Xuan. All the origins of their troubles could be traced back to Ye Xuan.

"Rest assured, all the resisters must die."

A glint of icy killing intent passed through the eyes of the Sound Saint, and then his left hand pressed on top of the Heavenly Python Plate, from where bits of True Yuan surged from his palm, flooding towards the plate. In a short while, the ancient serpent pattern on the plate began to slowly wriggle to life.

"Ancient Heavenly Python, enjoy your sacrificial offering."

The Sound Saint bit the tip of his finger and then dripped a drop of blood essence onto the compass above, which immediately lit up. The python pattern on it seemed to come alive, rapidly swelling to a colossal thousand zhang in size, bringing forth a terrifying fluctuation as if from ancient times, boldly enveloping Shen Luo in its presence.

"Heavenly Demon Transformation!"

Shen Luo wrapped her body with her wings, and then under those somewhat bewildering gazes, both her wings and body underwent a tremendous transformation. The wings crumbled away inch by inch, turning into pieces of armor that spread over Shen Luo’s body, forming an airtight defensive demon armor.

A wild surge of Heavenly Demon Qi filled her, and Shen Luo’s body grew by a full two meters, turning into a mini-giant. At this moment, the Heavenly Demon bloodline within her reached its limit, fully triggered in an instant.

"It’s useless, I expected this trick from you, but so what? Heavenly Python, devour her for me!"

The Sound Saint leaped and astonishingly landed on top of the Heavenly Python’s head. Then, the colossal python swept forth, creating a shocking whirlwind as it opened its mouth and lunged at Shen Luo.

In the face of the python’s immense size, even Shen Luo’s transformed body appeared minuscule.

"Demon Spirit Contract, Hell Hounds!"

Shen Luo extended her slender middle finger and deftly slashed it across her forehead. As streaks of blood seeped out, a strange array suddenly spread under her feet, rapidly extending to a hundred zhang wide.

As Shen Luo muttered an incantation under her breath, a vortex akin to a black hole appeared beneath the array, emanating a furious roar. Then a gigantic three-headed hound, bathed in black flames, emerged from the vortex.

The emergence of the Hell Hounds, also colossal at a thousand zhang, saw the three-headed beast extend its claws, facing off against the devouring Heavenly Python.

Boom!

A collision that shook the heavens erupted. After an intense clash, the two monstrous beasts engaged in a fierce battle, their ferocity frighteningly appalling.

"To have grown this powerful..."

The bystanders swallowed hard, horrified by the level of combat. Had the battleground of these colossal beasts been this plaza, they all would have died with nowhere to bury their corpses.

Bang!

In the sky, under the successive attacks of the Heavenly Python, one of the Hell Hounds’ heads was directly bitten off, emitting a painful howl.

"Can’t hold on any longer?"

Ye Xuan’s gaze landed on Shen Luo. At this time, the fluctuations from her body were much weaker than before. Obviously, summoning the three-headed Hell Hound had greatly drained her, and the power of this demon beast seemed to be linked to its master’s actual strength. Clearly, a summoning under such circumstances wouldn’t match the ancient Heavenly Python.

"Ye Xuan, take Xue Lingzi and the others and leave first."

At that moment, Qin Tian and the Great Elder suddenly transmitted their voices. Qin Tian then took out a Qiankun Ring and gave it to Ye Xuan, "Inside are the high-level Cultivation Techniques and Martial Arts of the Xuantian Sect, some treasured possessions of the sect, and the locations of several hidden treasuries in other places. Keep them safe. The revival of the Xuantian Sect one day will depend on these items."

Handing the Qiankun Ring to Ye Xuan, Qin Tian sincerely said.
