Chapter 217: Heavenly Venerable Thousand Hands
Your battle with the First Elder had caused too great a commotion. The Wilderness Clan cultivators within the city had long since been drawn over, watching from afar.
“Good! This person is so brave and fierce. I wonder what faction he belongs to? I must recruit him under my command!” From afar, you saw a Wilderness Clan cultivator point at you, asking those around him.
You lifted the blood-stained flying sword in your hand and walked toward the Wilderness Clan cultivators not far away with a half-smile, then stopped.
“Not bad. Handsome, and his strength is extraordinary. He ought to be This Miss’s guard!” A Wilderness Clan female cultivator spoke up in praise after seeing your true face, as if you had already become her possession.
Around her stood several Human Clan male cultivators of remarkable appearance, attending her on either side.
“To be favored by Lady Qing is that man’s fortune.”
“This human cultivator is blessed!” The cultivators nearby could not help but exclaim in admiration, eager to take his place.
You let out a cold laugh and did not argue. You merely lifted the flying sword already stained with the blood of a Tribulation Transcendence cultivator, your gaze fixed on the Wilderness Clan cultivators ahead, about to strike.
Just then, a cry rang out. “The First Elder is dead! Attack!”
Your Immortal Sword paused. Three Tribulation Transcendence cultivators, leading dozens of Fusion realm cultivators, suddenly appeared and charged into the crowd of Wilderness Clan cultivators.
“The Tianxuan Guardians are here! Die, foreign race!”
“KILL!!!”
“Retreat quickly!”
“Go summon the Ancestor!”
The entire sky descended into chaos. The spells the cultivators cast flew in all directions, but when they drew near you, they were canceled out by a force.
You paid no attention to the battle around you. Your gaze was fixed only on the Wilderness Clan female cultivator who had just spoken rudely to you. Beside her was a Tribulation Transcendence Human Clan cultivator, covering her retreat.
“Trying to leave?” Your figure vanished. When you reappeared, you stood before the Wilderness Clan female cultivator, blocking the retreat of both master and servant.
“You’re here!” The Wilderness Clan female cultivator’s eyes lit up, and she said joyfully, “Quickly, This Empress commands you, kill those traitorous rebels at once!”
Your only response was a single sword strike!
The Tribulation Transcendence cultivator beside the Wilderness Clan female cultivator hurriedly moved to block it, glancing at you warily. He spoke in a low voice. “Miss, this one does not come with good intentions!”
You frowned as you looked at this Tribulation Transcendence Human Clan cultivator, and asked, “You are also a Human Clan cultivator. Why serve as a dog for a foreign race?”
“No comment!”
Your frown gradually smoothed out, and you murmured to yourself, In that case, I will have to see you off.
You put away the long sword in your hand. In the earlier battle with the First Elder, most of the spiritual power in your body had been consumed, so you chose to use the strength of your physical body.
You took a single step, and the void beneath your feet shattered instantly. Your figure appeared before the Human Clan Tribulation Transcendence cultivator at extreme speed.
Under his horrified gaze, one of your hands grabbed his head, while the other clenched into a fist, smashing into him again and again.
With just three punches, the body of an early-stage Tribulation Transcendence cultivator was smashed into a mist of blood by you!
With a wave of your hand, the Human Sovereign Banner appeared in your palm. You directly collected his soul into the banner and refined it.
A dignified early-stage Tribulation Transcendence cultivator had been slain on the spot by you in but a moment!
Off to the side, the Wilderness Clan female cultivator who had been so smug moments ago now stood frozen in place, utterly at a loss.
After sensing your gaze, she quickly regained her senses and hurriedly begged for mercy. “This Empress… This Empress is the great-granddaughter of Heavenly Venerable Thousand Hands! You dare kill me?!!”
“Oh? Heavenly Venerable Thousand Hands?”
“That’s right! If you know what’s good for you, step aside at once. This Empress will not stoop to your level.” Your hesitation seemed to give the Wilderness Clan female cultivator confidence, and she became arrogant once more.
“Heh!” You chuckled lightly, and under her frightened yet smug gaze, you struck without hesitation!
The Wilderness Clan female cultivator burst apart in the sky like fireworks. The flesh and blood of a Fusion realm cultivator irrigated the land, giving back to the earth.
Heavenly Venerable? A Great Vehicle stage powerhouse? Heh!
You smiled, unconcerned. Although you were not yet a match for a Great Vehicle stage powerhouse, that did not mean you would never be.
Give you time, and you might well become a Great Vehicle stage powerhouse, and slay that so-called Heavenly Venerable Thousand Hands along with the rest!
A wisp of black qi slowly emerged, flying toward you, only to be effortlessly erased by you.
The great battle continued. You glanced at the Wilderness Clan cultivators fleeing in all directions. The Returning Unity Sword quietly appeared, and together with the Human Sovereign Banner, it reaped the lives of the Wilderness Clan cultivators.
