Chapter 1336: God Slayer?
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
The emperor of Great Qin was confounded. He had taken notice of Lu Zhou’s energy fluctuations the first time they battled. Based on the fluctuations at that time, it did not feel like Lu Zhou was fighting with all his strength.
Meanwhile, the four elders of Mount Li had no choice but to reevaluate their opponent’s strength. They suddenly understood the emperor’s thoughts as well. If Lu Zhou was really weak, the emperor would not have summoned them.
Qin Renyue was not surprised at the outcome. However, he was surprised that Lu Zhou was pushed back earlier. He flashed and moved to stand next to Lu Zhou. Then…
“Enough!”
A terrifying soundwave rolled out.
“Qin Renyue!” The emperor of Great Qin glared at Qin Renyue.
At this time, the 49 swordsmen unleashed their energy swords, forming a seven-way formation. After all, it was disrespectful to call Qin Renyue by his name.
Qin Renyue said, “Your Majesty, I respect you as the ruler of the county. If you have something to say, then say it. However, you deliberately invited the four elders of Mount Li here to attack my friend. How can I just stand by and watch?”
Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!
The 49 swordsmen understood Qin Renyue’s intention and got into formation in the air.
At the same time, Ji Shi, Zhou Chongshu, and Tang Zibing pushed their hands out to heal Cui Mingguang at the same time. With that, his injuries recovered very quickly. With their cultivation bases, as long as they did not die, it was not difficult to heal their injuries. However, they could forget about recovering the high-level puppet.
The emperor shook his head and muttered, “Time and fate…” Then, he pointed at Mingshi Yin who was standing with the others and said, “You, I’ll give you a chance. If you come to my side, I’ll spare your life!”
“Don’t go. He has his eyes on your Great Void Seed,” Yan Zhenluo said.
The emperor continued to say, “This is your last chance. Blind loyalty is foolish and will only harm you. Do you really think he’s good to you?” He laughed loudly before he continued to say, “In the cultivation world, the strong prey on the weak. It’s filled with filth and deception. If you’re not careful, you’ll die. You have the Great Void Seed so he wants to use you to become a supreme being.”
Qin Renyue instinctively turned to look at Mingshi Yin.
The battle with Tian Wu and Lord Zhennan was no longer a secret. News of the Great Void Seed had spread in the green lotus domain.
“Think it through,” the emperor said. His voice rolled out in a soundwave toward Mingshi Yin.
Mingshi Yin smiled. “There’s no need to think about it. I feel like talking to you is only lowering my IQ.”
The emperor shook his head. “You don’t know what’s good for you. As you wish then…”
The emperor waved his hand.
Gao Cheng flew up and hovered above the Mystic Tranquility Hall before he said in his high-pitch voice, “Activate the Ultimate Formation!”
Buzz!
With the Mystic Tranquility Hall in the center, pillars of light shot up into the sky from all directions. They connected in the air and swiftly sealed the area.
The earth trembled as the inscriptions on the ground lit up.
A buzzing noise rang in the air as the pillars of light dimmed after fusing together. Darkness descended immediately.
Yu Shangrong controlled his Longevity Sword to circle around the areas where the pillars of light had shot out from. It flew several thousand meters before it flew back.
“This space isn’t an illusion?”
“It doesn’t make sense,” Yan Zhenluo muttered.
Meanwhile, Qin Renyue and the 49 swordsmen were also trapped in the formation.
The emperor of Great Qin walked forward with his hands on his back and came to a stop in front of the four elders of Mount Li. Then, he said, “One of the core functions of the formation is to extend space infinitely. This isn’t an illusion.”
Qin Renyue asked, “Are you sure you want to do this?”
“I don’t have a choice. Even if I put my sword down now and forget about the grudges with a smile, do you think your friend will believe me? If it were you, would you believe me?” the emperor asked.
Qin Renyue could not refute those words.
The emperor continued to say with a smile, “In the formation, I’m the strongest.”
Then, the emperor brought out the White Dragon Jade, and it illuminated the space immediately. It was like a bright moon that suddenly appeared. However, just as quickly as it appeared, it disappeared again.
At this moment, it was as though a vortex was churning in the air, gathering all the Primal Qi. Then, it was as though the Primal Qi in the space was frozen.
The 49 swordsmen who were hovering in the air fell down one by one.
Lu Zhou and Qin Renyue could feel their energy in their Dantian’s seas of Qi being frozen by the strange energy as well.
Everyone looked at each other in dismay as an ominous feeling rose in their hearts.
“This is even stronger than the Ten Grand Formation. In this formation, freezing Primal Qi is only a small part of its strength. Apart from that, I can still mobilize my Primal Qi,” the emperor said as he stepped forward.
At this moment, everyone could feel that the Primal Qi was completely frozen by the mysterious energy.
The emperor flew to Cui Mingguang’s side and hovered in the air, clearly able to mobilize Primal Qi. Then, he placed his hand on Cui Mingguang and said, “In this formation, I can grant strength to my allies as well…”
The Primal Qi surged around Cui Mingguang while it remained frozen for the others.
The emperor said to Cui Mingguang, “I’ll grant you strength to seek revenge.”
When Cai Mingguang felt energy surging in his Dantian’s sea of Qi, he smiled.
Qin Renyue instinctively raised his hand to launch energy seals. Alas, no energy seal appeared.
Cui Mingguang flashed and stood in front of Qin Renyue. “Venerable Master Qin.”
“What do you want?” Qin Renyue asked.
“I’ve never killed a Venerable Master in my life. If I can kill a Venerable Master once, I’ll have no regrets in my life,” Cai Mingguang said as he looked at Qin Renyue.
Qin Renyue frowned.
At the same time, Cui Mingguang struck with his palm.
Qin Renyue raised his hand to block the strike.
Bang!
When Qin Renyue was sent flying back, the 49 swordsmen rushed toward him on foot.
“Retreat!” Yu Zhenghai yelled.
“I’ve only used 10% of my strength,” Cui Mingguang said as he continued to move forward. Then, he came to a stop three meters in front of Lu Zhou. He looked at Lu Zhou and asked, “Do you know how difficult it was for me to cultivate a high-level puppet?”
Lu Zhou remained silent.
Upon seeing the indifference on Lu Zhou’s face, Cui Mingguang grew even angrier. “I’ll kill you first.”
Cui Mingguang’s hand seemed to carry the force of a mountain as it moved toward Lu Zhou. It seemed like it was capable of crushing Lu Zhou’s head.
When the palm was about to land on Lu Zhou’s forehead, Lu Zhou took two steps back and stabbed forward with Unnamed in the form of a sword. Unnamed pierced through Cui Mingguang’s palm and his shoulder like a hot knife through butter.
The four elders of Mount Li were stunned.
The emperor of Great Qin was stunned.
The four guards and Gao Cheng were also stunned.
“???”
Cui Mingguang turned to the side and saw Unnamed shrouded in golden energy piercing his shoulder. Blood began to flow out.
Lu Zhou looked at the blood that stained Unnamed. He shook his head and said, “You’re like a frog living at the bottom of the well.”
Then, Lu Zhou brought Unnamed down, completely severing Cui Mingguang’s arm.
Cui Mingguang let out an excruciating cry that resounded thunderously. It shook everyone’s eardrums.
“Old Cui!”
The three elders rushed toward Cui Mingguang. They leaped into the air, falling to the ground one after another only to realize they no longer had access to Primal Qi.
When Lu Zhou withdrew Unnamed, blood slid down its blade to the ground.
The emperor shook his head and frowned. “Impossible. I’m the only person in the formation who has access to Primal Qi! I’m like a god in this formation! H-how’s this possible?”
Lu Zhou raised an eyebrow. “God?” He paused for a moment before he said, “Then, I’ll slay a god today!”
Lu Zhou raised his hand as he channeled his divine power into Unnamed.
Energy swords shot out in all directions like fireworks.
Being in the Ultimate Formation was Lu Zhou’s greatest chance.
The emperor cried out, “Switch the formation!”
The emperor waved his hands, and time seemed to freeze.
Alas, Lu Zhou was unaffected. He flickered and appeared in front of the emperor before smacking the emperor.
Bang!
The emperor glared at Lu Zhou as he called out, “Four guards!”
