Chapter 2636: The Rain Abbess’ Killing Intent
“The Watercloud Iron is extremely rare in the Saints’ World. Its value is immeasurable. Blue Sky Venerable, do you think I’ll just give it to you?” The Rain Abbess’ sneer rang out from inside the Formation of Cloudsurge and Rainflood.
“Hahaha, it’s exactly because Watercloud Iron is far too rare and far too precious that I can’t find something of equal value to exchange for it. Moreover, I heard the abbess has many treasures and is very wealthy. Although I have managed to accumulate a little over the years, it’s nowhere close to the abbess’ collection. It’ll probably be very difficult for me to take out anything that interests the abbess, so I might as well just owe the abbess a favour. As long as the abbess gives the Watercloud Iron to me, I’ll leave immediately whilst owing the abbess a favour.” The Blue Sky Venerable laughed aloud. He stood outside the Formation of Cloudsurge and Rainflood with his hands behind his back as his tremendous presence as a Sixth Heavenly Layer Grand Prime crushed forward.
Under the pressure of his presence, the formation immediately began to flicker.
The Blue Sky Venerable clearly realised the Rain Abbess was facing a powerful opponent, so she could not be distracted. As such, he decided to try and make the Rain Abbess hand over the Watercloud Iron in a threatening manner.
As the lord of planet Wandou, the Blue Sky Venerable was forceful with all his actions. He did not fear the Rain Abbess at all. Moreover, the Watercloud Iron really was extremely precious like the Rain Abbess had described it to be. If the Blue Sky Venerable really were to exchange for it, he would have to pay quite the price.
Moreover, he just happened to come across the Rain Abbess while she was locked in combat with a powerful opponent. This was an opportunity for him.
As a result, he wanted to take the Watercloud Iron from the Rain Abbess without paying the slightest of price at all.
As for the favour he promised, he believed that as long as he did not get in the Rain Abbess’ way, it would be returning the favour.
“A favour from you? Blue Sky Venerable, you overestimate yourself. A favour from you isn’t even worth one ten-thousandth of the Watercloud Iron in my eyes. Piss off and I’ll forget about what you did earlier, or don’t blame me for showing no mercy,” the Rain Abbess said coldly. She was brimming with killing intent, leaving no room for negotiation.
“Rain Abbess, you’re only at the Fifth Heavenly Layer. Even if you’re very powerful and can barely fight against those at the Sixth Heavenly Layer, that doesn’t mean you’re my opponent. I haven’t spent all those years in control of planet Wandou for nothing. Show me whether your mercilessness can do anything to me today.” The Blue Sky Venerable’s face sank, and he snorted coldly. Energy erupted from his body, and he directly struck his hand towards the Formation of Cloudsurge and Rainflood.
With the palm strike, the world immediately darkened. All the stars vanished, and the space where the Blue Sky Venerable stood shattered from the power in the strike.
Across the entire Saints’ World, Sixth Heavenly Layer Grand Primes were supreme experts who stood at the apex. Even across all the ancient organisations that had existed for who knows how long, there would only be a handful of them. Every single one of them was an ancient existence who could control the fate of their entire organisation, able to annihilate the stars with a single gesture. They were extremely terrifying.
Boom!
With a great rumble, the Blue Sky Venerable’s devastating palm strike landed mercilessly on the Formation of Cloudsurge and Rainflood. It made the formation shake violently. A few cracks even appeared.
“Hahaha, this Formation of Cloudsurge and Rainflood is nothing special. I only used a single attack, yet it almost collapsed. I’ll destroy your formation with my next strike. Rain Abbess, changing your mind right now isn’t too late.” The Blue Sky Venerable laughed aloud. He formed a seal with both hands, and a huge planet gradually condensed above him.
The planet was tens of thousand metres wide. Mountains and rivers could clearly be seen on it. It seemed extremely realistic.
If someone familiar with planet Wandou was present, they would discover that the planet seemed exactly the same. The only difference was its size.
It was a shrunken version of planet Wandou.
Afterwards, the planet rapidly began to shrink. It went from tens of thousand metres wide to thousands of metres wide then to hundreds of metres wide.
However, as the planet shrank, the terrifying energy inside it strengthened. When it was around three hundred metres across, the energy had been compressed to an utterly terrifying level. Just the pulses if gave off were enough to crack space. It was extremely astonishing.
“Rain Abbess, it looks like you plan to adhere to your foolish ways. Whatever, I’ll just destroy your Formation of Cloudsurge and Rainflood,” said the Blue Sky Venerable before suddenly extending a finger.
Immediately, the shrunken planet above his head flew out. As a streak of light, it hurtled towards the formation with terrifying speed.
With an earth-shattering boom, a huge hole was torn open in the formation after the collision with the planet. The powerful, lingering energy from the planet began to spread out in all directions. Wherever it passed by, the formation collapsed.
The Formation of Cloudsurge and Rainflood had caved in as a result of the Blue Sky Venerable’s attack.
Moreover, after the shrunken planet destroyed the formation, it did not disperse. Instead, the residual power continued onwards, shooting directly towards the Rain Abbess with lightning speed.
“Blue Sky Venerable, you seek death!” The Rain Abbess’ frigid voice rang out. In the next moment, her killing intent became so powerful that it caused space to freeze up and everything to fall silent.
She had already gained the upper hand in her clash with Godslayer’s sword. It was only a matter of time before she completely finished it off, yet the Blue Sky Venerable had come to interfere at such a crucial time, rendering all her past efforts null. This made her extremely furious such that her killing intent towards the Blue Sky Venerable rose to an unprecedented level.
The ball of water that flooded the protective light suddenly vanished. The Rain Abbess had recalled all her power. Afterwards, with a wave of her hand, endless amounts of rainwater gathered together, condensing into a sky-blue sword. It shot towards the shrunken planet with a flash.
“Haha, my secret technique is anything but ordinary. Even if it has been slightly depleted from getting through your formation, you won’t be able to receive it so easily. The sir who was trapped in the formation before, your time for revenge has come…” The Blue Sky Venerable laughed relaxedly and gleefully. There was some contempt in his laughter.
He had heard of the Rain Abbess before. She was only a Fifth Heavenly Layer Grand Prime. No matter how powerful she was, even if she could put up a fight against a Sixth Heavenly Layer Grand Prime, she was still lacking if she wanted to stand up to him.
However, in the next moment, the Blue Sky Venerable’s laughter stopped. His eyes suddenly narrowed. He was shocked.
The planet he had conjured up with his secret technique was actually cut into two by the Rain Abbess’ water sword. The sword continued onwards, travelling right towards him with the presence of the Way of Rain.
The Blue Sky Venerable discovered an extremely rare sense of threat from the sword.
“I underestimated you,” the Blue Sky Venerable called out and became slightly more serious. With a wave of his hand, he drew a duster and swung it towards the incoming sword.
The sword shattered upon collision, completely collapsing against the Blue Sky Venerable’s weapon. It returned to a ball of mist that permeated the surroundings.
The mist was filled with a dense and pure presence of the Way of Rain. The laws of the world seemed to appear within it.
Suddenly, the mist started to freeze. It swept through outer space with an indescribable coldness, immediately beginning to freeze up a range of a million kilometres around the Blue Sky Venerable.
The Blue Sky Venerable suddenly stiffened. A bone-piercing coldness infiltrated his body, causing his blood to stop flowing in an instant. The coldness continued to spread in an attempt to freeze up his cultivation and soul.
