Chapter 145: Drawing the Blade
“The four Saint-rank guardians… defeated just like that…?”
“The Sorrowful Saintess, still at the Dead Sea Stage, controls four Saint-rank spirit beasts!!!”
“And she has a Dual Soul Body! Even the Phoenix Immortal Saintess would be instantly defeated~~”
“Aaaaaah, she’s so beautiful! I’m ovulating!!!” A certain green-haired maid in a revealing outfit shrieked, drawing strange looks.
“Phew~~~”
Standing at the center of the battlefield, the focus of all eyes, Gong Lianyue sighed, a melancholic expression on her face.
Because the Tyrant Demon Seed was a wild spirit beast, she hadn’t even used half her spirit energy, but the mental strain had left her looking pale.
However, with the troublesome Wind Realm Four Guardians dealt with, the remaining Wind Realm Spirit Masters were no longer a threat.
Envoys are not to be harmed.
And having displayed such terrifying power, no one would dare to attack her in public!
The massive purple cube created by the Ice Soul Cold Star still hung in the sky, the shattered Windchaser Emperor trapped within.
If she released Ice Emperor City, the Windchaser Emperor would instantly perish.
Click—
However, the purple ice cube began to rotate, returning to its original form.
After several twists and turns, the Windchaser Emperor’s body was reassembled, its scattered soul core fragments restored.
Swish!
The next second, the cube shattered, ice particles scattering like dust.
Floating in the sky, the restored Windchaser Emperor cautiously examined itself, still in disbelief that it was alive.
The Ice Soul Cold Star had spared it. Its aura, however, was weakening, seemingly about to revert to its Ice Spirit form.
Just then, the two icy eyes on its wrists suddenly turned, and its chilling spirit energy formed a question mark: ?
A wave of water erupted from Gong Lianyue, gradually forming an indistinct, watery spirit beast.
Swish, swish, swish—
Hundreds of gazes within the Yin Tomb fixed upon the bulky, ungainly, water-shaped figure. Was that… a Water Element?
Compared to the graceful and beautiful Ice Soul Cold Star, the Water Element’s appearance was… underwhelming, a fact readily apparent even to humans.
Wait! It came from the Sorrowful Saintess. Was this her companion spirit beast?
Having already revealed her Saint-rank team, why summon a low-rank Water Element?
Everyone was puzzled, including Gong Lianyue herself.
This was similar to the Ice Spirit’s earlier behavior, appearing without being summoned.
And hadn’t the Water Element already evolved into the Water Element Commander? Why had it regressed?
[Death Tribulation]
The moment the Water Element appeared, the Ice Soul Cold Star radiated a dense purple spirit energy, transforming into a mysterious, star-filled sky that enveloped the entire Yin Tomb.
The massive purple star, several kilometers wide, sealed off the entire area, trapping everything within.
The Water Element, oblivious, continued to flow towards the edge of the mountain range, its movements slow and stiff, as if it had no will of its own.
The Ice Soul Cold Star didn’t interfere, simply watching.
However, noticing the Water Element’s direction, the Six-Faced God, previously defeated by the Tyrant Demon Seed, suddenly leaped to its feet and intercepted the Water Element.
“Sorrowful Saintess, I advise you not to cross the line.”
The battered Six-Faced God’s tone was serious, but its face, still a mask of terror, was unconvincing.
The next second, its expression shifted, a smug smirk appearing.
Instantly, its injuries vanished, its body fully restored.
“I have six masks, each with a different ability. The abilities themselves are not inherently stronger or weaker, but if I switch to the next mask within an hour, my power multiplies!”
“In other words, I have six stages of enhancement. You just defeated my second stage. This is my third!”
“When I reach the sixth stage, you cannot defeat me!”
As the Six-Faced God boasted, the Water Element reached it and flowed through its silver body, a clear, transparent stream.
Passing through the Six-Faced God effortlessly, the Water Element continued on its path, unresponsive.
Bang!
The Six-Faced God’s spirit energy erupted, and it spun around, unleashing a powerful punch.
The terrifying impact shattered the surrounding area, but it didn’t even touch the Water Element, passing through it like a ghost.
“What…?”
The Six-Faced God’s smug smirk turned to a weeping face, then an indifferent face, then a despairing face.
Its aura surged, its silver muscles tightening, harder than steel, far more powerful than before.
According to its own explanation, it had now reached its strongest, sixth form!
However, the more its power increased, the less it could sense the Water Element, its despair deepening.
Just then, it received a telepathic message from the Ice Soul Cold Star.
“Physical attacks are useless against it. I’ve frozen its concept of existence. Unless it reveals its true form, it cannot leave this area.”
Hearing this, the Six-Faced God finally understood. This Water Element wasn’t under the Sorrowful Saintess’s control.
An uncommunicative, unusual being, only the Ice Soul Cold Star could restrain it. This realization filled her with dread.
“No, no, no, no, this is useless!!!”
“What?”
“Your range is too wide!!!”
The Six-Faced God was almost in tears, its words vague, still hiding something, clearly not wanting to reveal the full truth to the Ice Soul Cold Star.
Because the Water Element was heading towards… the Hibernating Sun’s resting place!!!
Under everyone’s watchful eyes, the Water Element reached the edge of the mountain range and stopped.
A few seconds later, it plunged its watery arm into the ground, the water seeping down for thousands of meters, until it touched something cold and ancient.
Boom!!!!
The next second, as the Six-Faced God watched in despair, a dark, shadowy aura erupted, filling the sky.
A cold, merciless, incomprehensible presence, unlike any other being.
In that instant, the sky and earth lost their color, all other auras extinguished.
The Wind Realm Overlord, a legendary-rank spirit beast—the Shadowlurking Blade, Night’s Executioner.
The Water Element had drawn it out!!!
Chapter 146: Legendary Water Element
BOOM!!!!
A terrifying aura, unmatched and overwhelming, resonated, plunging the world into a despairing darkness, eclipsing the sun, moon, mountains, and rivers.
No one dared to resist, no one dared to show even a hint of disrespect.
This was a legendary-rank spirit beast, the Shadowlurking Blade, Night’s Executioner…
Even more terrifying was the Water Element that had drawn the demonic blade. How could it so casually touch a legendary being?
Witnessing this, not only the Six-Faced God despaired, but even the Ice Soul Cold Star’s comical icy eyes showed a rare flicker of… concern.
All their efforts… wasted! They were doomed!
The Shadowlurking Blade, Night’s Executioner, its body shrouded in a dark mist, its true form only visible in its reflection on the ground.
A bizarrely shaped greatsword, its curved blade covered in cracks and fissures, resembling a woman’s slender waist, alluring and seductive.
It looked more like a dancer’s prop than a weapon designed for killing.
This was the Wind Realm Overlord’s true form!!!
The five-meter-long, pitch-black blade, held in the Water Element’s hand, radiated a chilling, sinister aura that instantly shattered the surrounding purple stars.
With Death Tribulation broken, after sixteen years, the Water Element finally breathed the outside air.
It looked up at the sky, a contented expression on its face, inhaling the chaotic, dirty spirit energy, the water flowing around its body beginning to distort.
Whoosh~~
The pure, azure water turned a disturbing, murky black, an endless tide of darkness spreading outwards, condensing into a sinister black crown.
The watery figure’s long hair billowed, a dark, shadowy crown atop its head, its body, however, radiating a pure, almost holy light.
Like a seductive sea goddess, its beautiful form both captivating and terrifying, drawing one into the depths of despair.
The black-crowned Water Element’s evolution didn’t stop there, its aura growing darker and more profound, transforming into something even more mysterious.
Swish!
A black, watery domain expanded, an endless vortex of tides filling the sky, silently consuming the surrounding mountains.
Rivers flowed in reverse, mountains crumbled.
Like a devastating flood, the landscape of the Yin Tomb was instantly transformed.
Within the swirling vortex, the Water Element’s illusory, watery form solidified, its skin turning a delicate, snow-white, its features becoming more human.
A moment later, the Water Element transformed into a woman with long black hair, a single black teardrop adorning the bridge of her beautiful nose, her gaze cold and indifferent.
Her flawless form, like a divine creation, her naked body enveloped in swirling black water, floated in the air.
Seeing this bizarre transformation, the Six-Faced God’s face twisted in confusion.
“The Variant Water Emperor?”
“The Flowing Shadow?”
“The Watery Years?”
“The Serpentine Nether River?”
“No, this is…!!!!!”
Before it could finish, the black-haired woman, formed from the black-crowned Water Element, swung the blade.
A flash of light, a terrifying wave of energy erupting from the five-meter-long Shadowlurking Blade, Night’s Executioner, engulfing all life present.
Swish, swish, swish—
A massive, black arc, like a giant sword slash, tore through the mountain range.
The Six-Faced God’s powerful body was cleaved in two, the Tyrant Demon Seed also struck, its core shattering instantly.
The Windchaser Emperor and the Nether Bell Maiden, two of the Four Guardians, were also cut down, their bodies falling to the ground.
Swish, swish, swish—
The terrifying blade continued its rampage, hundreds of Spirit Masters’ soul cores shattering in an instant, their bodies collapsing like felled trees.
Even Nether Traverse Stage Spirit Masters couldn’t escape. Whether they had time to summon their spirit beasts or not, their soul cores were cleaved by the soul-piercing blade.
Even a Nether Traverse Stage Saint-rank spirit beast, the Cloud Emperor Demon Jiao, hidden within the Firefly Palace delegation, was instantly sliced to pieces.
No one could withstand the might of a legendary being. The moment the Shadowlurking Blade fell, their fates were sealed.
The green-haired maid spat out a mouthful of green blood, then collapsed to the ground, unconscious.
After that single strike, no Spirit Master or spirit beast remained standing within the Yin Tomb.
No, there was one!
Gong Lianyue, the Sorrowful Saintess!
She seemed unaffected by the attack, but her state was… strange.
The blue-haired girl silently examined her soul cores. The Water Element’s core was shattered, only a faint thread of their contract remaining.
And the black-crowned Water Element, despite radiating an invincible aura, was now battered and weakened, its face pale, blood trickling from its orifices.
It had deliberately shattered its own life core, severing its connection to its Spirit Master.
Although she didn’t understand how the Water Element could still move, this was clearly beyond the realm of Saint-rank abilities.
The Ice Soul Cold Star and the Frost Snow Woman, having no intention of fighting it, stood aside, their expressions sullen.
“You’re leaving? Will you return?”
Recalling some strange encounters, Gong Lianyue looked up and asked.
Staring at the shimmering teardrops on the blue-haired girl’s face, the black-crowned Water Element didn’t reply, but slowly turned to leave.
“Stop! Leave the master behind!!”
Seeing it about to leave, the Six-Faced God, its body severed, lying in a pool of silver liquid, roared.
It recognized this spirit beast’s level, hence its desperate cry.
This was the unique humanoid form of a legendary-rank spirit beast!!!
This Water Element was also a legendary being! And it was taking the Wind Realm Overlord with it!
Hearing the Six-Faced God’s futile rage, the black-crowned Water Element glanced back, the black teardrop on its forehead shimmering coldly.
Bang!
The Six-Faced God instantly vaporized, not even a fragment of its core remaining.
The scene within the mountain range was one of utter carnage, all the spirit beasts dead, victims of the Water Element’s devastating attack.
Before leaving, the beautiful woman with the black crown looked back at the blue-haired girl, as if etching this memory into her very being.
The next second, she vanished, her body transforming into a black meteor, a deafening sonic boom echoing as she soared into the sky.
Her terrifying aura shook the entire Wind Realm, reaching even the distant Wind Valley and the vast Cangsheng Palace.
A new legendary spirit beast had been born…
