Chapter 657 - 656: Zhunti Is Also Forced to Awaken, This Battle Is About to Be Lost [First Update]
Inside the Immortal Slaying Sword Array.
As Jieyin unleashed his full strength, Lin Heng also displayed his power without any reservation.
The might of the four swords grew stronger, completely filling the entire highland with Sword Qi.
The terrifying power of slaughter seemed as if it could sever the eternal spacetime.
He was not afraid of Jieyin.
Indeed, this was one of the two oldest Saints of the Western Sect, with a seniority far surpassing that of Tathagata Buddha.
But ultimately, the opponent was not a Saint of the present age!
Even with the nourishment of the highland’s power, Jieyin’s strength could not return to its peak, let alone when he had awoken prematurely.
Speaking of true strength.
At least in Lin Heng’s view, it was absolutely incomparable to Tathagata!
And indeed, that was the truth.
Jieyin could not independently break the Immortal Slaying Sword Array, though the Saint’s Breath contained within him was more than double that of Lin Heng’s.
But between the two, there was only a difference in quantity, not in quality.
Simply put, they belonged to the same level of powerhouses.
In terms of sheer strength, the Saint’s Breath that Jieyin possessed could suppress Lin Heng, but unfortunately, he was facing a slaughter array that required one Saint to initiate and four Saints to break!
Even with his endless means, being entangled by the Four Immortal Slaying Swords, he gradually began to feel overwhelmed.
And as he was caught unprepared, a Sword Qi pierced through his chest.
Furious though he was, Jieyin’s heart slowly began to panic.
The presence within the Ancient Bodhi Tree saw it all, as Jieyin, harassed by the omnipresent Sword Qi, lost his composure.
He could only let out a deep sigh.
"How did it come to this, alas..."
A divine light surged from the ancient tree, and a Great Buddha slowly rose into the sky, his ethereal body gradually solidifying, with the Saint’s might spreading across the entire Qingqiu.
This time.
Qingqiu was in total uproar.
"What happened? What exactly happened?"
"What kind of existence has appeared?"
"Why do I feel compelled to submit?"
Countless creatures were terrified, bewilderedly looking around.
From Jieyin to Zhunti.
The revival of these two was nothing less than world-altering, suppressing myriad Daos.
Those of low cultivation could not control themselves, instinctively prostrating on the ground.
And the beings within the Eight Great Highlands were all boiling over.
"Zhunti truly forced to return to the world..."
"Oh heavens, who could it be?"
"To the point that even Jieyin’s awakening couldn’t resolve it?"
It was utterly unfathomable.
The development of events exceeded everyone’s expectations.
Nobody had predicted.
In Bosatsu’s Sublime Light Highland, both Saints Zhunti and Jieyin were forced to emerge.
This piqued the curiosity of more and more people as to what kind of figure now controlled the Four Immortal Slaying Swords.
"Is this person truly a newcomer?"
"Oh my, what kind of prodigy has emerged in Daoism?"
In the Endless Fire Realm at that moment, Demon Master Kunpeng was completely baffled.
As an ancient expert who had advanced far on the path of Quasi-Saint.
He knew better than most how terrifying Zhunti and Jieyin were.
Even if these two were no longer at their peak.
They still retained the power to contend with the Saints of the present age!
Yet now, these two former Saints were being challenged by a newcomer.
And forced to appear together!
It was truly unfathomable and hard to believe.
"Oh my god..."
"Is that guy really that fierce?"
"Forcing out Jieyin Saint wasn’t enough, even Zhunti couldn’t remain undisturbed?"
In the Holy Race Highland, Su Daji was already dumbfounded.
She originally thought it was commendable enough that the newcomer could break through the limits of a Quasi-Saint.
But now she realized.
The other party had not just broken the conventional Quasi-Saint limits!
The other party had clearly reached a level almost comparable to a Saint!
Recalling how she had previously dared to secretly compete in speed with this individual.
Su Daji couldn’t help but feel embarrassed.
She felt like she was truly a frog in a well.
Completely unaware that for a young generation to be named a Celestial Venerable, it required terrifying power!
"What kind of figure is this exactly?" Gazing toward the Land of the Far West, Bao Si was also restless, growing more curious about that Daoist Celestial Venerable, eager to see his true form.
But there was no way.
Even if the Fox Race could monitor Qingqiu.
The highlands remained beyond reach.
No matter what kind of supreme battle was erupting there, the highland fog was impenetrable, and she could only occasionally catch a fleeting glimpse of the Immortal Slaying Sword Array.
But it was too chaotic inside that array.
Forget the fog, even without visual obstacles, outsiders would probably only see chaos.
Especially after Zhunti revived.
The array became even more chaotic.
A streak of Sword Qi, capable of severing the Milky Way, furiously spewed from the Four Immortal Slaying Swords, endless, intricately woven in dense curls.
More numerous than the stars at night!
And Zhunti and Jieyin both exerted all their Divine Techniques, each gesture suppressing ancient rules, a pointed finger descending as if turning the entire highland void into chaos.
Such a level of battle was terrifying.
It’s only because of the highland as the battlefield, otherwise the entire Qingqiu might have been destroyed!
This was no exaggeration.
For they were engaged in a Saint-level battle!
Saintly battles were earth-shattering, and without any restrictions, many Small Thousand Worlds would suffer catastrophically!
BOOM BOOM BOOM!!
Thunderous explosions resonated continuously from within the sword array.
With Zhunti aiding him, Jieyin was no longer at a loss, once again showcasing the might of a former Saint, each move shaking the universe, the four swords clashing.
And the forcefully revived Zhunti, even more infuriated, unleashed full might upon Lin Heng, determined to suppress and annihilate him in the highland.
Lin Heng dared not be careless, fully leveraging the sword array to clash with these two founders of the Western Sect.
However.
His Saint’s Breath was ultimately not as abundant as these two.
Though, with the sword array, he could contend for a while.
But as the battle wore on, Lin Heng’s decline became increasingly apparent.
After five days of hard-fought combat.
Lin Heng was evidently exhausted, leading to the Immortal Slaying Sword Array’s diminishing power.
"Defeat is inevitable."
Within each major highland, former supreme beings focused their eyes.
They could feel the Immortal Slaying Sword Array nearing its end.
"After all, they are the founders of the Western Sect."
"A starved camel is bigger than a horse; even if not in full form, far from their peak, they are not foes a newcomer can easily confront."
"However, for one who is not a Saint to drive Zhunti and Jieyin to such an extent."
"His formidable power is also truly astonishing."
The ancient beings sighed; this battle left them in awe.
Meanwhile, in a highland known as the Supreme Celestial Abyss.
An awe-inspiring presence finally opened its eyes.
Those eyes were authoritative, fierce, and looked down upon everything.
