Chapter 892: Who Dares Fight
The will of a Venerate Lord powerhouse could be considered extremely solid, so even rare treasures couldn't injure it easily.
Every single one of the 36 Sky Tablets of Venerate Lord Yuan Yi could become an ultimate treasure for a great sect. The 36 Sky Tablets separated into 36 different Great Cosmoses that could ensure Venerate Lord Yuan Yi never died.
Even a Yuan Venerate would find it difficult to kill him.
However, as Luo Yunyang's 12th Sword was unleashed, Venerate Lord Yuan Yi's 36 Sky Tablets turned into dust in the face of these terrifying obliteration laws.
As the 36 Sky Tablets crumbled, Venerate Lord Yuan Yi's body created nomological laws alongside them.
"I don't accept it! I don't accept this!" Venerate Lord Yuan Yi howled furiously as the 36 Sky Tablets crumbled.
That voice, which was filled with anger and unwillingness, only cried out three times before it vanished under the black sword-light.
12th Sword—Obliteration!
This sword, which contained power from the created nomological laws of Yuan Venerate Wanliu, had slain a Venerate Lord. An overbearing Venerate Lord had tried to use this opportunity to completely destroy the Rising Sky Feather Sect.
As the black sword-light dispersed, the silhouette of Luo Yunyang once again appeared before everyone. The pillar of black and gold light that had been furiously expelling power behind him also seemed to have calmed down by now.
However, Yuan Venerate Wanliu didn't retract that pillar of light. Instead, he continued to channel the spiritual essence meant to be returned to the world into Luo Yunyang's body.
He didn't do this to give Luo Yunyang this spiritual essence, but rather to allow Luo Yunyang to be able to intimidate those ninth-level Heavenly Venerates.
One could say that Venerate Lord Yuan Yi's death had shocked everyone present and the 12th Sword had displayed Yuan Venerate Wanliu's peak state.
While they were in this state, Yan Chijian, Great Heavenly Venerate Red Phoenix, and the others knew that clashing with this sword would only result in one outcome—death.
Although they all hoped to obtain everything released after Yuan Venerate Wanliu died, they weren't willing to throw away their lives for that.
After reaching this sort of level in their cultivation, they naturally knew that everything was false and only one's life was important.
Thus, the looks they gave Luo Yunyang were filled with fear now.
Could he still unleash the 12th Sword? They feared they wouldn't even be able to deal with the 11th Sword of the Sky Feather 13 Swords.
Having Venerate Lord Yuan Yi and not having Venerate Lord Yuan Yi made a vast difference.
As Luo Yunyang eyed the ninth-level Heavenly Venerates present, he could tell what they were thinking.
They were hesitant, so they wanted to stall. They believed that the longer this dragged on, the more miserable they would be.
After all, Yuan Venerate Wanliu was releasing the various energy and power within his body at a rapid rate. As this energy dispersed, Yuan Venerate Wanliu's death loomed closer.
Without the support of Yuan Venerate Wanliu, Luo Yunyang's power would be thoroughly used up.
He couldn't wait. Therefore, after communicating with Yuan Venerate Wanliu's spirit consciousness, Luo Yunyang turned his gaze to the sacred image of Yan Chijie.
Yan Chijie's sacred image was a sword wheel of 36 long swords. He had also been the first to start attacking the Rising Sky Feather Sect.
That turbulent sword wheel was frightening and berserk!
"Yan Chijian, would you dare fight me?" Luo Yunyang's voice rang out like thunder.
The Rising Sky Feather Sect disciples looked delighted when they heard Luo Yunyang shout out. In their opinion, Luo Yunyang and Yuan Venerate Wanliu were one and the same.
Luo Yunyang's shout excited them.
Yan Chijian's sword wheel sacred image hissed when he heard Luo Yunyang's shout. As a peak ninth-level Heavenly Venerate, Yan Chijian had always been prideful. However, the current circumstances prevented him from being conceited.
Would he dare to fight? He naturally wouldn't dare!
Although he was really arrogant, Yan Chijian knew fully well that if he attacked at full force, he would probably die instead.
He believed that it would be difficult for Luo Yunyang to unleash the 12th Sword, but it was highly probable that Luo Yunyang would use the 11th Sword.
He wasn't Venerate Lord Yuan Yi. Against Luo Yunyang's 11th sword, he simply wouldn't be able to put up any resistance.
Therefore, after pondering for a moment, Yan Chijian made a decision. He was no match for Luo Yunyang. He had only one choice, which was to retreat.
Although retreating was an easy thing to do, Yan Chijie's retreat would cause him to lose a great deal of face.
This was a huge humiliation for him. However, he simply had no other choice right now.
The rapidly-revolving sword wheel in the void immediately dispersed into different sword-lights and vanished without a trace or sound.
Yan Chijian, who was a fearsome ninth-level Heavenly Venerate, had chosen to make his sacred image dissipate.
Although he could still congeal his sacred image in the future, making it dissipate now would forever be a stain for Yan Chijian.
"How bold!" Great Heavenly Venerate Soaring Snake lamented as he watched the sword wheel disappear into the void.
He wondered if he would leave that decisively if the same thing happened to him.
Great Heavenly Venerate Soaring Snake pondered this question. As he mulled it over, he realized that he could never choose to give up as decisively as Yan Chijie.
Luo Yunyang had forced a ninth-level Heavenly Venerate to back off.
Although he had used some dubious intimidation, many people had really witnessed this happening.
Luo Yunyang had never expected that Yan Chijian would actually leave. Furthermore, he had never imagined that his choice to leave would be so decisive.
Although he appreciated that Yan Chijian was leaving in this manner, at the same time, he felt uncomfortable. After all, he had intended to kill Yan Chijian to set an example.
He couldn't carry on with this plan to kill one person and intimidate the others now that Yan Chijian had left.
After a slight pause, Luo Yunyang's gaze turned to Great Heavenly Venerate Soaring Snake, who had caused him considerable trouble. Killing him right now to make a statement would be a decent choice.
Although using the 11th sword would place a considerable burden on him, Luo Yunyang believed that he would be able to bear it.
"Great Heavenly Venerate Soaring Snake, would you dare have a match with me?" Luo Yunyang shouted.
Great Heavenly Venerate Soaring Snake had been pondering what to do next. However, he had never expected that Luo Yunyang would actually target him.
Although he already had an opinion, he suddenly felt tense when he heard Luo Yunyang's shout.
"Luo Yunyang, I have other matters to attend to. I shall not bother with you right now."
As soon as he said that, Great Heavenly Venerate Soaring Snake flew away rapidly through the void. Although he was really reluctant, he still didn't wish to fight with Luo Yunyang.
Nobody could say that Great Heavenly Venerate Soaring Snake was shameless after witnessing the manner of his retreat. The other Great Heavenly Venerates were very unwilling to leave, yet they didn't wish to lock horns with Luo Yunyang either.
Luo Yunyang felt unhappy while watching Great Heavenly Venerate Soaring Snake leave. He wanted to compel everyone present into a negotiation, yet this person had left immediately.
"Does anyone else want to try?" Luo Yunyang turned towards the sacred images that mostly belonged to ninth-level Heavenly Venerates, which were already starting to back off.
Nobody said anything. Nobody was going to play Luo Yunyang's game. As Luo Yunyang mulled over how to change the current circumstances, a voice was heard.
The speaker was a ninth-level Heavenly Venerate whose voice was raspy. His tone also sounded pained.
This Heavenly Venerate finally showed himself as his words rang out. Luo Yunyang frowned when he saw the ninth-level Heavenly Venerate that had spoken.
He hadn't interacted with this ninth-level Heavenly Venerate as of yet, but he felt an extremely uncomfortable sensation when this ninth-level Heavenly Venerate appeared.
This person could actually threaten him!
Just as Luo Yunyang looked over at that Heavenly Venerate, the Heavenly Venerate chuckled. "My name is Green Wood. You can call me Great Heavenly Venerate Green Wood. He he... I don't believe that you can still use the Sky Feather Sword."
"Aren't you just putting on a show of bravado? Now, l will call your bluff." Great Heavenly Venerate Green Wood finished speaking and pulled his arm back, making a giant green palm shoot towards Luo Yunyang.
Luo Yunyang looked slightly doubtful when he saw Great Heavenly Venerate Green Wood attacking. Shouldn't he be biding his time under the circumstances? What exactly was Great Heavenly Venerate Green Wood up to?
Did he really trust his own judgment?
As Luo Yunyang prepared to unleash the 11th Sword, a flash of light shot out of Great Heavenly Venerate Green Wood's body.
This flash of light transformed into a figure that threw a heavy punch at Luo Yunyang.
This punch contained overwhelming might and boundless power of nomological laws. Luo Yunyang's every part would probably turn to dust in the face of this fist.
"A Yuan Venerate! Great Heavenly Venerate Green Wood's internal universe actually contains a Yuan Venerate!" someone exclaimed in shock.
Suddenly, they all discovered a problem. The attacking Yuan Venerate wasn't a member of the Human Race. Appearance-wise, he looked like a Mysterious Underworld Being.
The attacker was a Mysterious Underworld Yuan Venerate.
Immense fear filled Luo Yunyang's heart as this fist descended on him.
He wouldn't be able to handle this fist-strike!
