Chapter 784: Chapter 803: Immortal Slaying Sword Formation!

“Donghuang Taiyi, stop him,” Nuwa commanded fiercely from the Heavenly Vault, her voice thundering across the sky. At this point, only Donghuang Taiyi and Emperor Jun stood a chance at blocking Ye Xuan’s path, but the two Great Demons hesitated, uncertain if they should intercept Ye Xuan.

“Pfft!” Suddenly, a stream of blood spurted from Donghuang Taiyi’s mouth as he collapsed, unconscious. Even more bizarre, Emperor Jun’s body cracked all over, and copious amounts of blood gushed from his wounds before he too fell into unconsciousness at that moment.

“Ye Xuan, although you are our enemy, my brother and I are above kicking a man when he’s down. Escape quickly,” Donghuang Taiyi’s voice reached Ye Xuan’s ears.

“Brother Ye, besides my older brother Donghuang, you’re the only one I admire. Don’t you die at the hands of a Saint. Someday, I wish to fight you again and wash away the great shame of today’s defeat at your hands,” Emperor Jun coldly transmitted his message.

Clearly, the two Great Demons were feigning unconsciousness; after all, they had been seriously injured earlier. This display was meant for Nuwa to see because the will of the Saints could not be defied. Directly confronting it was beyond them; their only option was to resort to such schemes.

“Donghuang, Emperor Jun?” Ye Xuan’s expression changed, reflecting a complex mix of emotions as he gave one deep look at the two Great Demons and then, gathering the last of his waning Cultivation, prepared to flee towards the Lower Realm.

“Thinking of leaving?” BOOM! Heaven and Earth seemed to explode as Dao light obscured the sky. The Three Pure Ones truly lived up to their names. Yuanshi Tianzun was particularly terrifying; he had been watching Ye Xuan’s every move, and when he saw Ye Xuan about to flee to the Lower Realm, he took a hit from the Heavenly Sect Master, but still found the gap to unleash a Saint Technique at Ye Xuan.

“How dare you!” The Heavenly Sect Master roared furiously, desperation in his eyes. He had not anticipated that Yuanshi Tianzun would ignore his own safety, taking his strike head-on just to kill Ye Xuan.

Swish! A strand of Dao light tore through the Heavenly Vault, descending towards Ye Xuan. The Heavenly Sect Master was powerless to save him, and it seemed Ye Xuan was about to be annihilated on the spot.

“Am I about to die?” Locked by the Saint Technique, Ye Xuan couldn’t even twitch a finger. He watched in utter desperation as the Saint Technique plummeted towards him, his eyes filled with an unwillingness and despair.

Suddenly, at this critical juncture, a wisp of darkness quietly emerged. A complex and unfathomable fluctuation caused Heaven and Earth to stagnate, silently shielding Ye Xuan.

Hum! The void faded, and the turmoil subsided. Yuanshi Tianzun’s Great Technique mysteriously dissipated, and at that moment, Ye Xuan’s body was finally free to move again, but he stood there, stunned.

“How audacious, who are you?” Yuanshi Tianzun’s expression shifted dramatically, and Heaven and Earth Holy Light flooded the area. His Heaven and Earth Dharma Eyes pierced through the expanse of the Three Realms, seeking to identify the person who had saved Ye Xuan’s life.

So close, just a hair’s breadth away—if not for the strange black light that shielded Ye Xuan from the strike, he would already be dead at the hands of Yuanshi Tianzun.

However, Yuanshi Tianzun’s mood was profoundly heavy, for he understood a crucial fact: as one of The Three Pure Ones, no one but a Saint could withstand his attacks.

Yet the force that had blocked the blow for Ye Xuan was unlike anything he had ever seen, and it was certainly not from any of the other five Saints, for this presence was deeply mysterious, existing outside the scope of the Three Realms.

Not only was Yuanshi Tianzun greatly shaken, but so were Nuwa and the Heavenly Sect Master. Both being Saints themselves, with their keen sensitivity to such presences, how could they have not noticed that fleeting, enigmatic aura?

“How is this possible?” Nuwa murmured in astonishment, weighed down by the implication. Could it be that there existed someone in the Three Realms capable of rivaling a Saint?

Thinking of such matters, Nuwa no longer possessed any semblance of composure. Her eyes fiercely turned towards Ye Xuan, because it occurred to her that an extremely terrifying possibility.

“Could it be him?”

Nuwa shouted in horror, her eyes utterly fixed, for she had never forgotten that figure from years ago in Nuwa Palace who seemed to defy the River of Time. It was also because of this person’s appearance that Ye Xuan had managed to survive the hands of the Poison Ancestor.

Heaven and Earth grew still, all things fell silent.

Ye Xuan seemed to turn to stone, not speaking or moving, even forgetting to flee to the Lower Realm. Only from his tightly clenched fists and slightly trembling body could the tempestuous waves within his mind be discerned.

“Undying Immortal Scripture, Undying Immortal Scripture!”

“It is him… it must be him… the exact same aura… the exact same methods… Primordial Spirit… Primordial Spirit, come out to me.”

Suddenly, Ye Xuan’s dazed expression swiftly vanished, and he looked around, roaring loudly as if searching for the Primordial Spirit. His bloodshot eyes were intense and ferocious, as though he was determined to locate the Primordial Spirit’s presence.

Four years on the Blood Sea Battlefield, day and night, constantly together, Ye Xuan was all too familiar with the Primordial Spirit’s aura—so familiar that not even ten thousand years could erase it, as if it was etched into his bones.

Ye Xuan convinced himself he was not mistaken—the black light that had just nullified Yuanshi Tianzun’s fatal strike was indeed the intervention of the Primordial Spirit.

The only difference was that, back then on the Blood Sea Battlefield, the Primordial Spirit merely had the Cultivation of a Taiyin Mystic Immortal. Yet, the fleeting aura from just now was a thousand times stronger than the aura released by the Primordial Spirit in those years.

Though the strength had changed, the aura was exactly the same. Ye Xuan was absolutely certain, without the slightest doubt, that the one who had saved him was the Primordial Spirit.

From all directions in Heaven and Earth came his continuous roars, Ye Xuan appeared almost crazed in his search for the Primordial Spirit. Sadly, the frustrating fact was that there was not the slightest trace of the Primordial Spirit anywhere throughout Heaven and Earth.

At this moment, the three Saints all turned their gaze towards Ye Xuan. Although they didn’t know who the Primordial Spirit was, seeing Ye Xuan’s frantic behavior, it was evident that the person who had just saved him was deeply connected to Ye Xuan.

“No matter who you are, today, Ye Xuan, this scourge, will undoubtedly die.” Yuanshi Tianzun shouted coldly, unable to believe that, apart from the six Saints, there were others in this world that could match them.

“Scourge, accept your death.”

Yuanshi Tianzun thundered towards Ye Xuan, ready to strike once again, and Nuwa too with an expression of icy disdain sent out a beam of Holy Light towards Ye Xuan. Clearly, with the two Saints here, no one could stop their resolve to kill Ye Xuan.

“Want to kill him? Have you asked this Sect Hierarch?”

Heavenly Sect Master had already misjudged once, nearly letting Ye Xuan die by Yuanshi Tianzun’s hand. Would he allow the same event to repeat?

Boom!

In broad daylight, a battle shook Heaven and Earth, as a Green Light Array Diagram burst forth from the hands of Heavenly Sect Master. The Three Realms trembled violently while the sounds of a billion wailing souls echoed across the heavens.

Hum!

The Four Immortal Slaying Swords—one called Immortal Extinguishing, another named Immortal Trapping, the third Slaughter Immortal, and the fourth Immortal Slaying!

Heavenly Dao Killing Devices, fierce and unmatched. When the Four Immortal Slaying Swords erupted with the killing light of the Heavenly Dao, their terrifying aura swept across the Three Realms, resonating with the Green Light Array Diagram in the Heavenly Vault.

“Immortal—Slaying—Sword—Formation!”

Yuanshi Tianzun gasped in shock, his gaze fixed on Heavenly Sect Master, his eyes filled with utter horror.

“Sect Brother Tongtian, have you lost your mind? To actually deploy the Immortal Slaying Sword Formation to protect this ant, Ye Xuan?” Nuwa exclaimed in horror, her eyes revealing panic.

It wasn’t that Nuwa feared the Immortal Slaying Sword Formation. Even if Heavenly Sect Master summoned it, they couldn’t kill the two Saints. However, the Immortal Slaying Sword Formation could tear through Heaven and Earth. In the ancient past, the Primordial Land had shattered into the Three Realms because of the Immortal Slaying Sword Formation, which also drew out the already Harmonized Dao Ancestor Hong Jun.

Could the events of the past be recurring? If Dao Ancestor Hong Jun were to emerge and inflict punishment upon the Saints, how could Nuwa withstand it?

How could this not fill Nuwa and Yuanshi Tianzun with extreme dread?
