Chapter 2481 The Gaze of Tyrannical Song
Neither King Kun nor the Heavenly Dao Molt Ball could withstand this blade!
More tragically, this earth-shattering slash also harnessed their own power—they had unwittingly contributed to their own destruction!
The blade fell.
Song Shuhang's entire body seemed hollowed out, his arm holding the Nine Virtues Phoenix Saber trembling slightly.
Simultaneously, hundreds of consciousnesses from across the myriad worlds traversed dimensions and zeroed in on the scholarly faction's location on Earth.
These powerful consciousnesses, initially focused on Mars and Profound Sage Tyrannical Song's seven-day challenge, awaited the immortal battle's progress.
However, the terrifying power of the blade erupting from the Earth's scholarly faction startled the top beings of the myriad worlds.
As their consciousnesses arrived, they witnessed that world-shaking slash!
The power to annihilate everything merged into one, forging an indescribably fearsome blade light.
As the blade swept through, the consciousness of these top figures from the myriad worlds went blank, with only the horrifying scar of the blade lingering in their minds.
After a moment, the top experts of the myriad worlds began dissecting the nature of this blade.
"This slash contained an unfathomable spatial force... It transcended the very concept of space, lending the blade its eerie power. Once you see the mark, it's already too late to dodge."
"Destruction law, pure destructive law... And yet, this law feels alien. My own path involves destruction, but I can't grasp this law. It's as if this destructive law is not of our worlds—almost like it was newly created. Who is this person?"
"Is that blade a Dao weapon? Such awe it inspires—it's not just any Tribulation Transcender or Immortal divine weapon!" someone noted, focusing on the divine blade in Song Shuhang's hand.
"It's the Nine Virtues Phoenix Saber, a renowned Dao weapon in the cultivation world. Is he the new Eighth Cultivator of True Virtue? But that doesn't add up. The Eighth Cultivator should have only just inherited the saber." This person seemed well-versed in the lore of the Nine Virtues Phoenix Saber.
"There's also that terrifying sealing power. When this blade strikes, many defensive techniques are restricted, sealed. Even with my mastery in sealing arts, escaping the seal within this blade would be impossible in a short time," a deep voice remarked.
"A seal that even Venerable Violet Thunder can't break swiftly? That powerful?" Venerable Purple Thunder, a true Immortal, had validated his path with the Dao of Sealing.
"This blade bears the aura of the Scholarly Sage. I've clashed with a Sage before... and was soundly defeated then. This feeling is unmistakable," another top figure, previously bested by the Scholarly Sage, added.
"Can we not bring that up?" someone interjected.
"Let's not dwell on it. We're still friends, after all."
In truth, at least a third of those present had once sparred with Saints. Everyone sensed the aura of the Scholarly Sage in the blade, yet there was an unspoken agreement not to mention it.
Unexpectedly, someone candidly brought this issue to light.
That really hit hard.
"But we must confront this. The blade technique bore the Scholarly Sage's essence, and it annihilated two formidable enemies on the scholarly territory. This implies a deep connection with the scholarly faction. Perhaps…"
It could even be the reincarnation of a legendary Sage from the scholarly faction!
This was a dire speculation.
In fact, the shadow cast by the Scholarly Sage on the myriad worlds, even compared to this year's sudden collapse of the Heavenly Dao, was more profound, its influence deeper.
"It can't be the Scholarly Sage. Even a Sage wouldn't leave behind life-saving means in the hands of the Wielder of the Will. As I know, the Scholarly Sage's resurrection array has long been ineffective. The remnants of the Heavenly Court once gathered the Sages' resurrection arrays, but the Scholarly Sage's imprint has vanished. The Sage is truly gone."
These words seemed to confirm a possibility, while also offering a faint comfort.
"Speaking of the ancient Heavenly City... I just realized something. This slash contained the power of time! I've battled the Heavenly Emperor from the ancient Heavenly City. I can't be mistaken about this temporal essence."
The conversation returned to discussing the blade.
"How did he embed so many Dao and laws into a single slash?"
"It's likely the Law of Life and Death and the saber intent?of severing life and death... It's this saber intent that serves as the main attack! Such a terrifying technique."
"No, the saber intent alone couldn't bear such immense, complex force. Even this saber intent is merely a part of the entire slash!"
"Apart from these powers, there was also the black hole before. Was it also created by this slash? Or does this slash have the ability to shift flowers and trees, while moving stars?"
"I sense karma. That black hole might be tied to karma."
"So, who is this person?"
"Tyrannical Song on Mars has already displayed his strength. Now, such a fearsome figure emerges in the scholarly faction. The battle of the immortals grows increasingly intense."
"The prowess shown by this scholar rivals that of Tyrannical Song on Mars."
"It's not just a match; it's outright stronger. Honestly, who among us is confident enough to withstand that attack?"
A silence fell among the crowd.
Everyone reminisced about the aftermath of the slash while calculating internally. Could they have countered that slash?
Could they withstand it?
As they pondered, they suddenly noticed Tyrannical Song on Mars turning his gaze towards the scholarly faction!
"There he is. Tyrannical Song's gaze has shifted!"
"That slash must have caught Tyrannical Song's attention. He can't possibly ignore such a strike!"
"Tyrannical Song set a trap on Mars for the seven-day challenge of the myriad worlds. Meanwhile, in the scholarly faction's domain, this person unleashed a terrifying slash. Tyrannical Song and this individual are bound to confront each other!" The top figures of the myriad worlds anticipated the situation eagerly.
Tyrannical Song, at the forefront of the eternal battle, versus the enigmatic masked expert in the scholarly faction's domain.
Who is the true master of the tides?
As they contemplated, suddenly, behind the masked expert in the scholarly faction's territory, a large cocoon emerged and opened.
Then, a beautiful fairy emerged from the cocoon.
"Wait... Doesn't the fairy from the cocoon look familiar?"
