Chapter 1434: The Big Dig

Translator: Sparrow Translations  Editor: Sparrow Translations

In the Divine Lands, during the scramble for Mount Shu, Earth Dragon King lost his life. Heavenly Grandmaster Grand Sage, Crimson Gorilla Grand Sage, and Shen Dragon King were also defeated.

Current Emperor of the Ancients Gu Jun, together with Tiangang Swordmaster, Xin Longsheng, and Shi Xingyun hunted them down. The humans launched a wave of counterattacks.

Besides the four Vipralopa Great Demon, there were other formidable demons who followed their respective leaders on the journey to the Divine Lands.

Right now, they resorted to change from the aggressive attackers at the beginning, to losers on the run. All these seemed like a replay of the final campaigns during the previous war between the two realms.

Gu Jun’s group tracked down Heavenly Grandmaster Grand Sage’s party, whereas other human cultivators continued the pursuit and banishment of other formidable demons who followed the arrival of Heavenly Grandmaster Grand Sage.

Once more, both the Divine Lands and Barren Expanses saw a storm brewing.

The woman who meditated in the void on the coast of the East Sea, though intimidating, was able to bolster the confidence of everyone.

Celestial Sect of Wonders’ cultivators also went for the raid, hunting down their enemies. The Sect’s Honorary Guardian Zhuge Zhan, Flowing Waves Holy Man, as well as the Sect’s most elite second generation apprentices above the Immortal Soul Stage all joined the fight. In the Barren Expanses’ Inferno Emperor City, Lu Yuan Grand Sage’s group could not stay still and went to flank the enemy from the other direction.

Lingyuan Mountains’ Ancient Ape Demons Clan and Heavenly Demon Ape Clan’s Yue Cheng Grand Sage immediately returned to Lingyuan Mountains to guard it, after the departure of Heavenly Grandmaster Grand Sage and Crimson Gorilla Grand Sage for the Divine Lands.

While Extreme Spiritual Divine Monkey Tribe’s Extreme Spiritual Grand Sage, Nine Netherworld Ghost Monkey Tribe’s Nine Netherworld Grand Sage, as well as Suan Ni Grand Sage, who was affiliated to Lingyuan Mountains, all followed Heavenly Grandmaster Grand Sage on their quest to the Divine Lands.

They departed with a high spirit, but returned gloomy, escaping back to the Barren Expanses, battered and exhausted.

Extreme Spiritual Grand Sage was intercepted by Lu Yuan Grand Sage and Long Shenke, and almost did not make it out alive. He barely sneaked away, sustaining grave injuries.

Suan Ni Grand Sage was not so fortunate. A group of people surrounded him on a large lake in the Barren Expanses and locked down the void. There was no chance for him to escape.

Celestial Sect of Wonders’ Inferno Precipice lineage second generation champion – Tian Cang Holy Man, Tang Jun. Nirvana World lineage second generation champion – Tian Jin Holy Man, Zhou Yuncong. Qingwu Pavilion lineage second generation champion – Tian Shu Holy Man, Han Yang. Heavenly Temple lineage second generation elder – Tian Bi Holy Man, Ying Luozha.

More than half of Celestial Sect of Wonders’ second generation’s most elite characters were present.

Though they were all Immortal Soul Avatar stage cultivators, they had Suan Ni Grand Sage rounded up. As such, even this Syncretic Star Soul stage great demon had no chance to escape.

Suan Ni Grand Sage glanced around ferociously and inspected his surroundings. Besides Tang Jun and his group, Mahayana grade magic treasure Taiqing Ancient Sword was also present, hanging high above the nine heavens, with the point aiming down, pointing at his head from faraway. It was clearly the backup plan for Tang Jun’s group.

All these put Suan Ni Grand Sage in a difficult situation. Even if he wanted to break through, it would have been a Herculean task.

But this great demon was violent and overbearing. Despite seeing the poor odds of breaking through, his eyes glinted with bloodlust, as he was determined to trade his life for theirs.

But even so, his enemies were not easy to handle.

Tang Jun, Han Yang, and Zhou Yuncong, since the previous war between the two realms, were widely recognized as the three most powerful individuals in actual combat, in Celestial Sect of Wonders’ second generation.

Zhou Yuncong established his reputation the earliest, as he embodied the Yang Incinerating Entity. He could channel Yang-Incinerating Vital Spirit to launch an incisive, deadly attack – he had always been cruel and ruthless.

Even with Suan Ni Grand Sage’s level of demonic mastery, he had to pay extra attention to avoid being hit by Zhou Yuncong’s Yang-Incinerating Vital Spirit, hence making it a hassle for him in combat.

While Tang Jun had Fire Lord Body and was imbued with Holy Light of Creation. His style was blunt, having both exceptional attack and defence, indeed posing another threat to Suan Ni Grand Sage.

On the other hand, the seemingly sluggish and unconcerned Han Yang wields a longsword in his hand. In fact, he possessed the strongest attack power out of the three. Considering from the angle of preserving firepower in the long run, Suan Ni Grand Sage would rather sustain a blow from Zhou Yuncong or Tang Jun, than being slashed by Han Yang’s sword.

The appalling Luoyuan Destroyer Sword, inherited the spiritual essence of Heaven-Destroying Sword Qi, while infused with the strengths of others.

On his left arm, a scar remained. Droplets of light dissipated continuously from the scar, as if the scar was still bleeding.

Han Yang had long attained Immortal Soul Stage and his current body was the embodiment of his Immortal Soul Avatar. But this wound would still not recover, ultimately remaining there.

It was precisely due to this, that Suan Ni Grand Sage became ever more cautious.

That wound was not a given to Han Yang by him. In fact, Han Yang cut himself with the sword.

After sustaining the injury, Suan Ni Grand Sage could clearly sense that Han Yang’s subsequent attacks became considerably more powerful. Strangely, as the injury deteriorated, Han Yang’s attacks were ameliorated!

Due to the injury, a special reversed blood energy could be harvested and channeled into his sword aura. This was Han Yang’s signature secret power.

The reversed blood energy not only enhanced the power of Han Yang’s swordplay, but as it circulated nonstop, it also sustained his lifeforce.

Theoretically speaking, when he was he critical condition, on the verge of death, his power would then reach its apex. But that also meant he would be left with the strength of one blow. After dealing that blow, if not properly resuscitated, his injuries would be too severe to cure and he would therefore lose his life.

However, as he was surrounded by various members of his own Sect now, Han Yang obviously did not need to worry about this.

It was only because he did not want to miss out on the action that he did not risk his life. But if the need arises, he would not hesitate to do it.

Under the blessing of reversed blood energy, his Luoyuan Destroyer Sword became increasingly ferocious. In terms of attacking power, it far exceeded that of Tang Jun or Zhou Yuncong.

At the same time, another person who gave Suan Ni Grand Sage headache was Ying Luozha, who was in a distance.

A dark and skinny teenager, with eyes glowing like that of a wolf. Without approaching him, he simply stared at Suan Ni Grand Sage from faraway. His figure blinked as he shifted his position rapidly.

The corner of his mouth carried a coldly smirk as his hand held a dagger upside-down. He constantly adjusted his pose, but always aiming at Suan Ni Grand Sage.

That stature meant he saw Suan Ni Grand Sage as a prey, patiently, yet full of mockery. Seeing this, Suan Ni Grand Sage felt a rage boiling over, making him very irritated.

If it was just Ying Luozha, he would not have been so bothered. He could just teach this boy a lesson.

But he had to deal with Tang Jun, Han Yang, and Zhou Yuncong simultaneously, making it difficult for him to reach Ying Luozha. Worse still, he could not just ignore the existence of Ying Luozha. If Ying Luozha sneaked an attack on him, it would have triggered a cascade of reaction to his whole body. By then, it would be even more problematic for him to ward off Tang Jun and the rest.

If he paid attention to Ying Luozha, he would be distracted, but if he just faced off against Tang Jun’s group, he would also be in great danger.

All these made Suan Ni Grand Sage extremely irritated, wishing he could just massacre these youngsters before him.

Besides, although Tang Jun was resolute, Zhou Yuncong indifferent, Ying Luozha aloof, and they did not talk much during combat, Han Yang did not stop dissing him. He looked at Suan Ni Grand Sage and said, “it is such a pity big brother Tie was not here, if not we could have went for the offense right away, instead of wasting our time whiling away with this senile lion.

Maybe it was inherited from the ways of their masters, or due to the niche of their clan, but out of all those present, only Tang Jun could be regarded as both attacking and defending simultaneously. Even then, his attack was stronger than his defense. Han Yang, Zhou Yuncong, and Ying Luozha, from a certain perspective, were only attacking and neglecting their defense.

Afterall, Suan Ni Gran Sage was a great demon with Syncretic Star Soul. His immense power meant that if he was willing to trade his life to strike back on his enemy, the impact would be catastrophic.

Han Yang and the rest clearly had an upper hand in combat and Suan Ni Grand Sage was probably not going to make it out alive. But if they wanted to murder him without any collateral damage, they had to be very patient.

Suan Ni Grand Sage was already injured several times, and the most severe wound was caused by Han Yang. He stared coldly at the indolent teenager clad in a purple dress before him, and said, “perhaps I should take this brat down first!”

As he spoke, his figure shimmered and he pounced onto Han Yang. Waves of Purple Smoke Earthen Thunder, like purple-colored clouds, also started to engulf Han Yang.

In the midst of that purple-colored smog, there were starlight shining faintly.

Suan Ni Grand Sage has completely relinquished the idea of escaping. Instead, a thought of trading his life for theirs brewed. He was going to trigger an explosion with his internal energy.

But even as he was prepared to sacrifice his life, Suan Ni Grand Sage did not lose his cool. He chose Han Yang partly because he really angered him to no end. On the other hand, through fighting with Han Yang previously, he could infer that although this youngster was the best attacker amongst his peers from the Celestial Sect of Wonders, he was also the worst had defending.

Seeing Suan Ni Grand Sage making a move for himself, Han Yang still sported an idle expression, but his gaze suddenly became blindingly incisive.

He was well aware of his own strengths and shortcomings, more so than Suan Ni Grand Sage knew. Taunting him with words, together with his own personal traits, was a ploy to bait the opponent into attacking him.

As Suan Ni Grand Sage went for him, expectedly, Han Yang stopped talking and transformed into his Immortal Soul Avatar. Consequently, blood vapor pervaded and a black light shimmered.

Beams of sword luster intertwined endlessly between the heaven and earth. Earth, water, fire, and wind surged, morphing into four longswords, each embodying a unique sword aura. Except one which resembled Han Yang’s own Luoyuan Destroyer Sword, the other three swords resembled respectively: Mount Shu’s Saintly Celestial Sword Qi, Heaven’s Gate’s Great Nine Heavens Holy Sword, and his own master, Sword Celestial Master Luo Qingwu’s Original Spirit Sword of Extremity.

The four swords lustered as they rotated in a parallel formation. Sword aura and sword luster multiplied infinitely and diffused, somewhat forming a sword realm that was like a cloudy mist.

This sword realm annihilated all enemies who dared enter. Though the killing power was visibly withheld, it was apparent that it also served a defensive purpose.

Seeing this happen, Suan Ni Grand Sage’s heart sank. He realized that he fell for Han Yang’s treacherous trap.

He thought of disregarding it and forcibly tackling Han Yang’s sword realm, and continuing to risk his life to fight. But then, he saw that on Tang Jun’s forehead, a brilliant light shined incessantly, as divine patterns filled the atmosphere.

Those patches of divine patterns circulated and formed one after another seals that resembled chains. The seals bolted and darted through the void, changing the color of the heaven and earth.

Indeed, it was Tang Jun’s Holy Light of Creation!

When Tang Jun manifested his Holy Light of Creation previously, Suan Ni Grand Sage already knew that it was a miraculous light which enhanced the range, precision, and power of Tang Jun’s other spells.

It was not just an elevation of strength, but the spells would become more complex on a logical and spiritual level. Though it was temporary, it was infinitely mysterious.

But now it looked like Tang Jun’s Holy Light of Creation was not only applicable to himself, but could also be used to support others!

Up until now, Suan Ni Grand Sage would have been blind to not see that these youngsters before him had dug up a big trap for him!

Whereas he was well on his way into falling for that trap now.

Sadly, he could not stop even if he wanted to, as Zhou Yuncong and Ying Luozha had seized the opportunity to assault him. If he stopped right now, he would only suffer a bigger blow.
