Chapter 131: Slaying the Remnant Immortal of Sword Valley

Attacking Shi Jian were the Palace Master of the Immortal Palace, the Buddha who used the Great Luo Buddha Hand, and another Remnant Immortal who had transformed into a Great Sun. They immediately unleashed their killing moves. The Remnant Immortal, transformed into a Great Sun, was engulfed in raging flames and rampant divine light, incinerating everything. The divine mountains near him turned into dust one by one. His entire attack was like a descending Great Sun. The Buddha's Great Luo Buddha Hand covered the sky and earth, emitting bursts of Sanskrit chants, which seemed to contain strange magic. It could convert people. On the body of the Immortal Palace's Remnant Immortal, an ancient bronze palace appeared, exuding an ancient and eerie aura. The trio's attacks were exceptionally swift. Let alone a strong cultivator at the Divine Flame Realm, even a True God would likely meet a bitter end under their encirclement. However, they were besieging Shi Jian, who wielded the Heavenly Desolation Halberd. Shi Jian showed no fear, sweeping his Heavenly Desolation Halberd. A powerful force erupted, and wisps of Chaos Qi seeped out, empowering Shi Jian. The Heavenly Desolation Halberd fiercely struck towards the Remnant Immortal who had transformed into a Great Sun. "Boom!" The Great Sun and the Heavenly Desolation Halberd collided in the Void Realm. The Great Sun flames on this powerful cultivator's body quickly extinguished. As Kunpeng's divine weapon, the Heavenly Desolation Halberd was naturally a level higher than other divine weapons. It possessed extraordinary spirituality. Its power was immense. Now, with the Heavenly Desolation Halberd in hand, Shi Jian had the courage to traverse ancient and modern times. Shi Jian's offensive did not wane; as the saying goes, strike while the iron is hot. Leveraging the Divine Might of the Heavenly Desolation Halberd's emergence, Shi Jian instantly extinguished the flames on the Great Sun Remnant Immortal's body, then swiftly lunged in front of him. The Heavenly Desolation Halberd in his hand fiercely thrust forward. It instantly pierced through the body of this Remnant Immortal. Shi Jian directly impaled this Remnant Immortal, then hoisted him onto the Heavenly Desolation Halberd. However, Remnant Immortals were not so easy to kill. Within the body of the Remnant Immortal impaled on the Heavenly Desolation Halberd, raging flames ignited. In an instant, essence Qi surged, and this Remnant Immortal recovered immediately; the flames erupting from his body even almost injured Shi Jian! Shi Jian had to retreat rapidly, but just at this moment, the Great Luo Buddha Hand of the Remnant Immortal Buddha descended from the sky. Countless dense palms confined the entire Void Realm. The palm print slowly descended, about to suppress Shi Jian. Endless Sanskrit chants resonated. These Sanskrit chants carried a magical power, making anyone who heard them yearn to join their sect and become a follower of Buddhism. "Humph!" Shi Jian let out a cold snort, and the Hell Furnace appeared behind him. Having cultivated the Divine Elephant Suppressing Prison Strength, he was least afraid of such mental attacks. What kind of mental attack could be more terrifying than the will of Hell? Any mental attack that reached him would be suppressed by the will of Hell. He was like this. Yang Qi was also like this. "Grass Character Sword Art—White Emperor Golden Emperor Slash!" The Grass Character Sword Art that Shi Jian had used earlier now unleashed its power. One after another, blades of grass standing between heaven and earth erupted with incomparably sharp Sword Qi. This was not merely the Grass Character Sword Art. Rather, it was the White Emperor Golden Emperor Slash activated with the refining method of the Grass Character Sword Art! Within the Sword Grass phantom in the Void Realm, white light flashed. Geng Metal Sword Qi rampaged between heaven and earth. Dense Sword Qi shot towards the sky. "Rumble, rumble!" A sound like the collapse of the heavens resonated. The Geng Metal Sword Qi and the Great Luo Buddha Hand collided in the sky. The sky-covering Great Luo Buddha Hand was forcefully pierced through by the Geng Metal Sword Qi. In just an instant, Shi Jian directly resolved the killing moves of the two Remnant Immortals. The White Emperor Golden Emperor Slash, activated by the Grass Character Sword Art, was too terrifying. After those rampant sword lights broke through the Great Luo Buddha Hand, they shot straight towards the bronze palace summoned by the Immortal Palace Master! However, as these sword lights approached the bronze Immortal Palace, they became tainted with strange light. The sword lights were originally propelled by grass, and the grass, as the main body, should have been vibrant green and straight as a sword. But now, these blades of grass were tainted with a hint of decay. They began to wither. The sword lights also withered accordingly. Clearly, this bronze Immortal Palace was extraordinary. It was imbued with the power of Law. Otherwise, it could not have broken the White Emperor Golden Emperor Slash so easily! The bronze Immortal Palace crashed down on him from the Void Realm. Bronze immortal light permeated, and all Divine Abilities and secret techniques seemed ineffective against it. Shi Jian swept the Heavenly Desolation Halberd in his hand, then fiercely struck towards the bronze Immortal Palace! He could tell that this bronze Immortal Palace of the Remnant Immortal was not a technique. Instead, it was a single-use forbidden artifact. That was why its power was so immense. However, the Heavenly Desolation Halberd in Shi Jian's hand was even more powerful. The spirituality within the Heavenly Desolation Halberd was stimulated to its peak, and ripples spread out from within it. "Clang!" The two collided in the Void Realm. A dull thud, shaking the eight directions. Everyone in the Lower Realm felt the ground beneath their feet tremble. A large part of the bronze Immortal Palace instantly caved in. Centered on the caved-in part, cracks gradually spread outwards. The Heavenly Desolation Halberd in Shi Jian's hand, however, remained completely intact. One was merely a forbidden artifact forged in imitation of the bronze Immortal Palace. The other was the genuine Heavenly Desolation Halberd, which at its peak, was only a step away from transforming into an Immortal King's divine weapon. The stronger and weaker were immediately apparent. However, Shi Jian's strength was ultimately too weak. He could not unleash the full Divine Might of the Heavenly Desolation Halberd. This strike of his consumed more of the Heavenly Desolation Halberd's own divine power. After one strike, the divine power in the Heavenly Desolation Halberd was depleted. It needed to be nurtured before it could be used again. "Haha, having lost your divine weapon, how do you expect to contend with us now!" The Immortal Palace Master was first startled when he saw his bronze Immortal Palace shattered. However, seeing the Heavenly Desolation Halberd in Shi Jian's hand grow dim, he became excited again. In his opinion, although Shi Jian's group was powerful, they were still far from being their opponents. They could only contend with them a little by relying on the Divine Might of their divine weapons. Now that the Divine Might of his divine weapon was lost, Shi Jian was like meat on a chopping block. However, the Immortal Palace Remnant Immortal's joy lasted only a second. A scream instantly caught his attention. The Remnant Immortal of Sword Valley was being besieged by four people from the group; his phantom shattered into a bloody mist in the Void Realm and completely dissipated. In a few breaths, he was first heavily hammered by Yang Qi, then beaten wildly by Lin Dong... Meng Qi's Dragon Tooth Dagger poked thousands of holes in him, followed by Fang Han's fatal blow. No matter how formidable the Remnant Immortal of Sword Valley was, what descended to the Lower Realm was only a projection, not his true body. Therefore, he could only tragically perish. Those four not only slew the Remnant Immortal of Sword Valley but also began to encircle the others. Meanwhile, their three people focused fire on Shi Jian but failed to achieve any success. The Immortal Sword Remnant Immortal looked to the other side. There, three Remnant Immortals were also besieging Xiao Yan. A fiery top, containing terrifying power, spun continuously in the Void Realm, then chased behind the three Remnant Immortals. Within the fiery top was an extremely terrifying power. Once it erupted, it would surely be earth-shattering. And this thing exploded on contact. The three Remnant Immortals all intended to kill Xiao Yan, but none dared to touch this fiery top, which was like a bomb. None of them wanted to be the one to sacrifice themselves. Therefore, those three also failed to kill Xiao Yan. "Idiots!" The Immortal Sword Remnant Immortal cursed inwardly. The atmosphere, at this moment, became tense. One Remnant Immortal of Sword Valley had died. Now, the situation had become six against six! "Act quickly, don't hold back anymore, otherwise, let alone obtaining this heaven-defying opportunity in the Lower Realm, our projections will also be left here!" The Immortal Palace Master spoke with a grim face. The other Remnant Immortals nodded. Each once again unleashed their Divine Might. Among the six, a great melee instantly erupted. This time, there was no standard of who fought whom. It was pure chaotic fighting. All kinds of Divine Abilities and secret techniques flew around; if it was an enemy, they attacked; if it was an ally, they protected. "Yang Qi, lend me your Giant Cauldron; my goal is too big after I use my golden body, and using this Dragon Tooth Dagger is too awkward..." During the chaotic battle, Meng Qi and Yang Qi came together. In his spare time, he spoke to Yang Qi. After he used his Dharma Body, his Dharma Body was incomparably massive and majestic, holding a small Dragon Tooth Dagger in his hand. It was like a burly man holding an embroidery needle. Although its power was extraordinary, it just felt awkward to use. "No problem..." Yang Qi did not hesitate and immediately exchanged divine weapons with Meng Qi. Meng Qi took the Giant Cauldron, and under the effect of his Dharma Body, the Giant Cauldron quickly grew larger; a golden, resplendent giant held a vast and boundless Giant Cauldron. He raised his hand and smashed it towards a Remnant Immortal. Meng Qi's Dharma Body was originally a Vajra Indestructible type of Dharma Body. This type of Dharma Body, besides being Vajra Indestructible, also possessed immense strength. Coupled with Meng Qi himself having cultivated the Divine Elephant Suppressing Prison Strength, his use of this Giant Cauldron did not disgrace it. His massive Dharma Body, carrying the Giant Cauldron, smashed towards others, exhibiting unparalleled might. Meng Qi abandoned swordplay and just swung the Giant Cauldron to smash. His main style was pure Mang Jin Gang! Yang Qi held the Dragon Tooth Dagger, and the surrounding space rippled; he instantly vanished into the Void Realm. His aura was completely concealed. Even the Remnant Immortals could not sense his aura. "The Dao of Assassination lies within!" When Yang Qi's figure reappeared, the Dragon Tooth Dagger in his hand silently plunged into the kidney of a Remnant Immortal. Terrifying divine flames instantly erupted from this Remnant Immortal's body; the surrounding Void Realm was scorched with large holes by these divine flames. "Sneak attack, how despicable!" The Remnant Immortal quickly turned to attack Yang Qi, but Yang Qi's figure flickered and he vanished into the Void Realm once more. "Exotic Flame... Mine!" This Remnant Immortal had not yet recovered from the anger of being ambushed when Xiao Yan had already arrived before him. The Remnant Immortal immediately resisted him. "What the hell kind of cultivation technique is this?" This Remnant Immortal cursed; most of the Divine Abilities he cultivated were fire-attribute. Yet, this guy opposite him seemed to be the bane of fire. Any flame encountering him lost its original Divine Might. He could even absorb the divine flames from his own body. Xiao Yan ignored him, merely driving the Red Emperor Fire Emperor Qi and the Fen Jue to devour and refine the Remnant Immortal's flames. Lin Dong looked at Meng Qi, who was holding the Giant Cauldron, and felt a little tempted. He flashed and appeared beside Meng Qi. "Meng Qi, this Giant Cauldron of yours is really satisfying to smash people with. Let's swap; my Heaven Measuring Ruler can be big or small..." Meng Qi was unmoved by this; he felt that this Giant Cauldron worked quite well with his Dharma Body. No! Meng Qi, as if remembering something, suddenly woke up. Immense strength, Vajra Indestructible Dharma Body. Smashing wildly with a Giant Cauldron. Only attacking, not defending? Am I not becoming Mang Jin Gang again? "Swap, swap, swap..." Meng Qi felt he couldn't let his image deteriorate any further. The Heaven Measuring Ruler was better than the Giant Cauldron. Rulers were generally used by scholars. What are scholars? Educated people. What are educated people? Graceful and refined. If he, Meng Qi, used the Heaven Measuring Ruler, wouldn't that mean he was graceful and refined? "Haha... Take this, Grandpa's Cauldron!" After Lin Dong got the Giant Cauldron, he instantly smashed it out... After smashing for a while, he felt it wasn't quite right again. His advantage in strength was not as strong as Yang Qi's or Meng Qi's. He couldn't fully unleash the Giant Cauldron's immense power characteristic. Lin Dong glanced over and saw Xiao Yan, who was holding a fan and acting ostentatious. He usually looked down on such effeminate weapons. However, he actually also had a dream of being a scholar. Since he was already here... A moment later, Xiao Yan looked at the Giant Cauldron in his hand and fell into a daze. These people really acted on impulse. It was a battle. Such a serious situation... Why were they swapping weapons? He wasn't used to this thing. Xiao Yan's gaze turned to Fang Han. The Immortal Artifact on Fang Han's body had a protective effect. With this thing, he could safely absorb the divine flames from that Remnant Immortal. Xiao Yan fought while moving towards Fang Han's direction. A moment later, under the protection of the jade pendant, Xiao Yan absorbed the flames from the Great Sun Remnant Immortal's body with immense satisfaction. So fragrant! Fang Han looked at the Giant Cauldron in his hand and scratched his head. This Giant Cauldron was good, but he already had a Five Prison King Cauldron. He was afraid the Five Prison King Cauldron would get jealous. "Brother Yang, your Cauldron is here with me..." Yang Qi exited assassination mode, looking at the Giant Cauldron that had returned to his hand with some confusion. However, he immediately changed his style again. "The Dao of Strength lies within!" "Damn it..." Several Remnant Immortals couldn't help but curse upon seeing this scene. They were openly swapping weapons! They simply didn't put them in their eyes. Too presumptuous. "You brat, you bully people too much..." Several Remnant Immortals unleashed their Divine Might. The various Remnant Immortals had not expected things to develop to such a point. They originally thought that with their group of Remnant Immortals descending to the Lower Realm, wouldn't they crush everything? The result was that they were being suppressed. These guys were extraordinarily powerful. Each one had vitality like a cockroach; they couldn't be killed. Speaking of which, their individual strength was superior to Shi Jian's group. But they couldn't endure the fact that this group had balanced strength. Each one possessed terrifying immense strength, and their vitality was incomparably flourishing, along with various Divine Abilities and techniques. Any one of them, as long as you couldn't instantly kill him, then you simply couldn't kill him. They would recover in a few breaths. How do you play against a five-sided warrior? On the surface, it looked like they were suppressing Shi Jian and the others. But in reality, they were being worn down by Shi Jian and the others. If it dragged on, they would undoubtedly lose. Xiao Yan and the others knew this truth, which was why they shamelessly played around with swapping weapons. Fighting seriously was to drag out time. Fighting casually was also to drag out time. Might as well find some fun. The soul bodies of several Remnant Immortals had become somewhat dissipated. The Immortal Palace Master was not angered by their childish attitude; he wished Meng Qi and the others would become even more arrogant. That way, he could find an opportunity to turn the tables. However, time no longer allowed him to wait. If he didn't make a decision soon, the power these Remnant Immortals gained by sacrificing strong cultivators at the peak of Divine Flame... Would be exhausted. "Fellow Daoists, lend me a hand... If I obtain the Divine Ability, I will surely seek the Great Dao with all of you!" The phantom of the Immortal Palace behind the Immortal Palace Master became even more solid. "I will bring forth my true body's edict and use my true body's power to obliterate them!"
