Chapter 453: The Slaughter Begins
"Welcome!" The Demonic Lotusblade Sect's Leader and the Origin Convergence Sect's Leader looked at Duan Ling Tian and gave a warm smile.
At this moment, even the gazes of the older generation experts of the three sects had descended onto Duan Ling Tian.
They'd heard of Duan Ling Tian since long ago.
They knew that he was a peerless genius in the Martial Dao of the Azure Forest Imperial Kingdom, and his monstrous natural talent in the Martial Dao could be called unprecedented in the Azure Forest Imperial Kingdom.
"Alas... Senior Brother Duan Ling Tian is going to leave in the end." Many Seven Star Sword Sect disciples couldn't help but sigh.
Although the outcome was like this, they didn't blame Duan Ling Tian in the slightest, and even felt gratitude towards Duan Ling Tian.
After all, Duan Ling Tian had dealt with two traitors for the Seven Star Sword Sect before leaving.
He'd completed something that they wanted to do, yet were unable to do.
Besides Zhao Lin who possessed an unsightly expression, the other higher-ups of the Seven Star Sword Sect looked at Duan Ling Tian with gazes filled with gratification.
"Duan Ling Tian, if you see Fei, remember to tell her... Don't think of taking revenge for me until her strength is able to shake the Azure Forest Tri-Sect! Of course, it's best if she never thinks of taking revenge for me. As her master, I hope she can have a peaceful life, without any worries!" Elder Bi's voice transmission entered into Duan Ling Tian's ears, and it was like she was leaving her final words.
"Elder Bi, I'm afraid I'm unable to pass these words to Little Fei." The corners of Duan Ling Tian's mouth curled into a wisp of a bitter smile as he replied via voice transmission.
"What do you mean by this?" Elder Bi couldn't help but be stunned when she heard Duan Ling Tian.
In next to no time, she obtained the answer.
Duan Ling Tian stood at the side of the life and death arena and looked at the Sect Leaders of the three great sects, then he smiled lightly. "Sect Leaders, I appreciate the kindness of all of you... But I've once received a great kindness from the Sect Leader, received a great kindness from the Seven Star Sword Sect, I'm afraid I'm unable to leave with all of you." Duan Ling Tian's words possessed the resolution of living and dying with the sect.
The stand Duan Ling Tian declared caused all the people present to be dumbstruck.
"Senior Brother Duan Ling Tian..." Many Seven Star Sword Sect disciples were stunned.
All the Seven Star Sword Sect higher-ups were dumbstruck as well.
"What? Want to go back on your word?" The faces of the Sect Leaders of the three great sect's sank, and the flames of rage in their eyes ceaselessly raged, and it was difficult to restrain.
"Despicable!"
"You've gone back on your word!"
...
Meanwhile, the elders and disciples that surrounded Dubhe Peak had all burst out with insults.
"Sect Leaders, I'm truly sorry... Actually, I was only joking earlier. But I never expected that you would actually be willing to abandon two disciples for the sake of me, I'm truly overwhelmed by the unexpected favor." Duan Ling Tian rubbed his nose and smiled slightly embarrassedly.
Duan Ling Tian's words entered into the ears of the people from the three great sects, and it completely lit the flames of their rage ablaze.
"Duan Ling Tian, since you're unwilling to join our Azure Forest Tri-Sect, then go to hell!" Lu Yuan was the first to be unable to endure, the Origin Energy on his body shot into the sky as he flew off the Jadefeather Vulture, and he seemed to have transformed into a hawk as he plunged towards Duan Ling Tian.
After all, for the sake of recruiting Duan Ling Tian, he'd killed the most extraordinary personal disciple under him.
This caused him to feel aggrieved and enraged!
Why did he believe the words of this little sly fox, Duan Ling Tian?
Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang!
...
Sounds of air exploding rose and fell everywhere Lu Yuan passed.
In the sky, eight ancient horned dragon silhouettes dashed out in tow with imposing might that shot through the skies like a rainbow.
Bang!
Lu Yuan who was enraged to the limit slapped his palm out, his Origin Energy condensed into an enormous palm print that carried along the strength of eight ancient horned dragons as it howled out to crash towards Duan Ling Tian, and at the same instant that Lu Yuan attacked, Linghu Jin Hong moved as well.
Swish!
With a raise of his hand, Origin Energy instantly condensed into a sharp sword in Linghu Jin Hong's hand, and the sharp sword that was completely condensed into form from spirit energy flashed out, seeming to have transformed into a sharp arrow that was even swifter than the palm print Lu Yuan had condensed and slapped out.
In the sky above Linghu Jin Hong, 14 ancient mammoth silhouettes condensed into form.
As a sixth level Void Initiation Stage martial artist, Linghu Jin Hong's cultivation's strength was comparable to the strength of eight ancient horned dragon...
The extra strength of six ancient horned dragons was precisely from the sixth level Sword Concept of Linghu Jin Hong!
Duan Ling Tian's face went ghastly pale when Lu Yuan's palm print whistled towards him.
Whirlwind!
He exerted all his strength to execute his swiftest speed, yet it was still difficult for him to avoid Lu Yuan's palm print that was whistling towards him in the end.
It was as if these palm prints had eyes and they followed him like a shadow.
"Mother, Ke Er, Little Fei..." The almost suffocating feeling of almost stepping into the netherworld caused Duan Ling Tian to feel extremely unwell.
At this moment, the figures of the three women that were most important to him in this lifetime couldn't help but appear within his mind...
"Squeak squeak~" Right at this moment, the little gold mouse's sharp cry sounded out.
Subsequently, Duan Ling Tian noticed that his hand was latched onto by something, and only when his sleeve moved did he realize it was the little gold mouse's tails that had coiled around him and pulled him to flash towards the distance.
The speed was so quick that is was far from something the speed he produced could compare to.
It was at this moment that Duan Ling Tian heard a clear cry of the sword approach, and it pierced his eardrums to the point they shook.
Swish!
Bang!
It was the sword light Linghu Jin Hong condensed from his Origin Energy that had arrived and it crushed Lu Yuan's palm print.
"Sect Leader Linghu, I really never expected that you've actually comprehended a sixth level Sword Concept... In terms of strength, you're probably only below Elder Xuan in the Seven Star Sword Sect!" Lu Yuan looked at Linghu Jin Hong as a spear appeared out of thin air within his hand, the tip of the spear was suffused with Origin Energy and it emitted an aura that seemed as if it could penetrate anything.
Spear Concept!
Unlike Linghu Jin Hong who used the sword, Lu Yuan used the spear.
Very few martial artist on Cloud Continent used the spear, but those who dared use it were all experts that possessed extremely great confidence towards themselves.
Whoosh!
The speak in Lu Yuan's hand shook and the Origin Energy that coiled around the spear seemed to have transformed into flames that leaped about in the air, seeming able to burn everything into nothingness.
At the same time, 16 ancient horned dragon silhouettes condensed into form above Lu Yuan.
Around these 16 ancient horned dragons, another 8,000 ancient mammoth silhouettes were like stars that surrounded the moon as they surrounded all around the ancient horned dragons, as if they were submitting to 16 emperors.
Lu Yuan, the Sect Leader of the Origin Convergence Sect, was a sixth level Void Initiation Stage expert who possessed a grade five spirit spear and fifth level Spear Concept.
"Grade five spirit weapons!"
"It's the Origin Convergence Sect's Sect Guarding Spirit Weapon, Blazesea!"
"I've heard of this Blazesea that's long been in the possession of Sect Leader Lu. Supposedly, this Blazesea it the one and only grade five spirit weapon of the Origin Convergence Sect, a grade five spirit spear!"
...
Some of the elders and disciples of the Demonic Lotusblade Sect and Snow Moon Sect couldn't help but sigh with emotion.
In next to no time, the gazes of everyone descended onto Linghu Jin Hong that was in confrontation with Lu Yuan.
Linghu Jin Hong stood there and his robe fluttered about without being blown on by the wind.
A sword swiftly appeared within his hand, it was a sword with flowing lights revolving around it...
Along with his Origin Energy pouring into it and his sixth level Sword Concept suffusing onto it.
Whoosh!
In the sky, 17 lifelike ancient horned dragons condensed into form.
All around the 17 ancient horned dragon silhouettes, another 8,000 ancient mammoth silhouettes had appeared similarly to coil around them...
"Sect Leader!" The Seven Star Sword Sect disciples present looked up at Linghu Jin Hong and they revealed burning gazes.
This was the Sect Leader of their Seven Star Sword Sect!
His strength had obviously surpassed the Origin Convergence Sect's Leader, Lu Yuan.
"Sect Leader Linghu, I have to admit, I'm not a match for you one on one... But unfortunately, it isn't a battle between the two of us today, and it's instead a battle between our Azure Forest Tri-Sect and your Seven Star Sword Sect." Lu Yuan had a calm expression, and at the same time, he raised his other hand. "Disciples of the Azure Forest Tri-Sect, listen to my command..."
Suddenly, Lu Yuan pressed his hand down.
"Slaughter them all!" At this moment, Lu Yuan seemed to have transformed into the judge that controlled life and death.
"Kill!"
"Slaughter them all!"
...
Instantly, the disciples of the Azure Forest Tri-Sect were like swarming bees that swept towards the group of Seven Star Sword Sect disciples that chose to live and die with the sect.
The Seven Star Sword Sect disciples would naturally not sit still and wait for death, and they all rose up in resistance.
At almost the exact same instant, the experts of the three great sects who were high up in the sky attacked as well.
These were all experts that stood at the peak of the Azure Forest Imperial Kingdom, Origin Energy roared with every move they made, and Concept suffused the sky....
At the peak of Dubhe Peak, the true slaughter had unfolded.
"Kill!"
"Kill!"
...
A wave of battle cries sounded out by Duan Ling Tian's ears, and at the same time, he's entered into the fray.
Sword Drawing Arts!
Along with the Violet Myrtle Flexible Sword in his hand appearing in his hand, it seemed to have transformed into a venomous serpent, and numerous disciples of the Azure Forest Tri-Sect died at his hands successively.
Thousand Illusions!
A dim light flickered within Duan Ling Tian's eyes, and his Spiritual Force executed the illusions space via the soul brand.
With him at the center and spanning out an area of 10 meters, so long as it was an Azure Forest Tri-Sect disciple that possessed a Spiritual Force that was inferior him, they would all be lost within the illusion space and become goats awaiting for slaughter.
"Kill Duan Ling Tian!"
"Duan Ling Tian is capable of Demonic Techniques!"
...
In next to no time, there were Azure Forest Tri-Sect elders that had noticed the soul skill that Duan Ling Tian utilized.
Of course, they didn't know what Duan Ling Tian utilized was a soul skill, and only thought it was a Demonic Technique.
Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!
...
Numerous elders of the Azure Forest Tri-Sect flashed towards Duan Ling Tian as if they'd already discussed it.
These Azure Forest Tri-Sect elders all had Spiritual Forces that surpassed Duan Ling Tian's current Spiritual Force, and the soul skill, Thousand Illusion, that Duan Ling Tian utilized was completely useless towards them.
In the blink of an eyes, these Azure Forest Tri-Sect elders had already come close to Duan Ling Tian.
"Am I going to die in the end?" A bitter smile appeared on the corners of Duan Ling Tian's mouth when he saw this scene.
Not to mention him, even the little gold mouse was inferior to these Azure Forest Tri-Sect elders.
Most of them were existences at the fourth level of the Void Prying Stage or above.
Although his Spiritual Force had advanced to the Void Prying Stage and it was sufficient to inscribe inscriptions that could annihilate Void Prying Stage martial artists, the materials required by these inscription were extremely rare and couldn't be bought with money. They were materials that could be encountered by luck but couldn't be sought after.
Swish!
A dazzling sword light flashed before Duan Ling Tian's eye, and it was like a lifesaving straw that swiveled past.
With just a single sword strike, half of the Azure Forest Tri-Sect elders that flashed towards Duan Ling Tian were killed.
The remaining elders retreated in a hurry, then they looked at the middle aged man that stood in the sky with an expression of terror.
