Chapter 1152 600: Crossing the Void
The Mysterious Taoist pondered: "The Qiankun Venerate King, after all, has pursued us." Deciding to exert herself one last time for Gu Sheng, she leaves unrestrained.
Encased in the purple-gold lotus, Gu Sheng also seems to perceive something, his tightly shut eyes quivering slightly.
The Mysterious Taoist sat cross-legged at the pinnacle of the cosmos. She extended her hand and gently waved the horsetail whisk in her hand, causing the previously silent myriad stars to begin to stir restlessly.
One by one, ancient formations around the cosmos peak awaken. These Ancient Arrays emit an ancient and formidable aura, as if they've slept for countless ages, finally being roused, erupting into a final frenzy.
The Qiankun Venerate King is leading a group of cultivators hastily approaching. Sensing the disturbance from the formations ahead, his face slightly changes, and he promptly halts his steps.
Following behind him, the other cultivators also stop, readying themselves for battle.
Their fear of the Mysterious Taoist has long been deeply rooted in their hearts. If not for the Qiankun Venerate King leading, they would never dare to provoke this mysterious and powerful Taoist lightly.
The Qiankun Venerate King carefully feels the power of the formation ahead. His complexion drastically changes as he discovers that the life essence of the Mysterious Taoist is rapidly waning.
Meanwhile, the aura of those Ancient Arrays becomes ever more terrifying, with waves of powerful attacks pouring toward them, locking onto him and the other cultivators.
The Mysterious Taoist knows her state is exceedingly poor, with her current strength, she cannot resist the Qiankun Venerate King for long.
She decides to sacrifice herself to let the Ancient Array unleash its strongest power, striking at all the cultivators coveting Gu Sheng.
The Qiankun Venerate King senses the danger, decides instantly, and raises his sword high, shouting: "Raise the sword to angrily slash in all directions!"
A powerful Sword Qi surges from his sword, meeting the oncoming formation's force.
A collision of powerful forces erupts into intense vibrations, as the Qiankun Venerate King successfully blocks the first wave of array attacks.
The Ancient Array attacks seem endless, continuously surging forth.
The Qiankun Venerate King gradually feels overwhelmed, being battered backward repeatedly by the array's attacks. The other cultivators blanch in fear, turning tail and fleeing madly.
Those who run slower are affected by the array's attacks, turning into broken flesh amidst cries of pain.
In their Holy Land, they are usually esteemed genius disciples, but here in Death Valley, faced with such formidable formation attacks, they have no power to retaliate, easily being obliterated by even the aftermath of the array attacks.
The Qiankun Venerate King isn't foolish, through the Mysterious Taoist's frantic actions, he seems to discern some clues.
Despite unwillingness deep within to believe Gu Sheng can pass the inheritance assessment in such a brief time, the matter is of grave importance, not allowing him any mistake.
Risks of being severely injured by the formation, he again raises his sword and charges toward the direction of the purple-gold lotus.
Along the way, the Qiankun Venerate King wields his Divine Sword, each swing producing terrifying Sword Qi. These Sword Qis carry immense force, the life and death essence rampant around.
The formation attacks and sword aura collide fiercely, emitting violent roars. Even though the Qiankun Venerate King blocks most of the attacks with strong prowess, some attacks still land on him, causing him to vomit blood repeatedly. He doesn't halt, continuing to press toward the purple-gold lotus.
The Qiankun Venerate King is finally forced to stop, panting heavily, glaring angrily at the Mysterious Taoist, whose breath is faintly visible.
The Mysterious Taoist is only a few hundred meters away from the Qiankun Venerate King, who can clearly see that she is devoid of strength, barely sustained by a breath.
Though the Ancient Arrays are still attacking, their power is distinctly reduced.
The Mysterious Taoist initially believed the Ancient Arrays could scare off the Qiankun Venerate King, buying Gu Sheng enough time.
Unexpectedly, the Qiankun Venerate King remains so resolute, seeing through her intentions, forcingly breaking through, at the risk of injury, to kill his way over.
The Qiankun Venerate King's gaze falls on the purple-gold lotus, from whose surface faint Immortal Energy rises.
Through several hundred meters, he can clearly smell the rich Daoist Technique aura, especially the contained Life and Death Tao, which captivates him, an expert in Life and Death Tao. The lotus's revelations of Daoist Techniques are of significant meaning.
The Qiankun Venerate King's eyes widen with anger, shouting: "Today, I must seize this Immortal Seed!" With that, he raises the sword, swinging fiercely toward Gu Sheng.
Array attacks land once more, a powerful force preventing his attack.
In rage, the Qiankun Venerate King targets the Mysterious Taoist, rapidly brandishing the Life and Death Sword.
The Qiankun Venerate King slashes several times, each strike carrying immense power, breaking through the array attacks, killing his way to the Mysterious Taoist's front.
Angrily, he lifts his sword, shouting: "Die!" and chops viciously at the Mysterious Taoist.
The Mysterious Taoist watches the ever-enlarging Life and Death Sword, revealing a complex smile.
Her life is nearing its end, yet she doesn't regret it, having done all she could for Gu Sheng. She closes her eyes, her life essence completely dissipates.
It is only after the Mysterious Taoist's death that the Qiankun Venerate King's sword falls, directly beheading her.
At this moment, the purple-gold lotus, originally enveloping Gu Sheng, suddenly trembles violently, a mournful aura rushing from the lotus to the heavens, sweeping across all four seas and barren lands.
The Qiankun Venerate King reaches out, grasping the Mysterious Taoist's now detached head, looking towards the extraordinary scenery caused by this incident.
The gale howls, clouds roiling, the entire sky and earth shake for it.
The Qiankun Venerate King raises his head, letting out an exceedingly arrogant laugh.
Within the Holy Road, the Mysterious Taoist was the most terrifying forbidden existence.
For a long time, it was precisely due to her presence that Death Valley became a nightmare for countless people. Numerous cultivators entered Death Valley, never to emerge again, hence, none dared to rashly intrude.
