Chapter 2135: The Fall of Wuji Sword Supreme

The moment these words came out, White Crane Supreme knew that a path to survival — for himself and his race — had appeared.

"Why did we fail?"

"Among the million sword cultivators of the human race, there exists a being approaching Nine Tribulation Supreme, and there may well be more than one!"

"Yazi,"

White Crane Supreme said calmly, "Don't shout and scream in front of this Supreme, calling them trash with every breath. If you went up yourself, you'd die too. The human race's sword cultivators are notorious for their skill in sword combat, slaughter, and escape."

"Not to mention, these human sword cultivators are also extremely adept at concealment."

A being approaching Nine Tribulation Supreme!

A human sword cultivator approaching Nine Tribulation Supreme!

The surrounding Supreme beings of the myriad races caught their breath.

They found it somewhat hard to believe.

How could such a being be casually tossed onto the rear battlefield? Shouldn't they be placed on the main battlefield to withstand the Immortal Dynasty's overwhelming assault?

"A sword cultivator approaching Nine Tribulation Supreme…"

Yazi Supreme's expression darkened somewhat as he took the jade slip White Crane Supreme handed over.

Over the course of tens of thousands of years, Chongming Supreme, Diting Supreme and others had led their armies in a crushing advance like a Shanfeng, easily annihilating hundreds of thousands of human sword cultivators — as effortless as autumn wind sweeping fallen leaves.

Then, they fell into a predicament.

Every sword cultivator still alive after the encirclement possessed extreme escape ability. When the army came, they fled; when the army left, they came back to kill — cunning and shameless.

How terrifying were these human sword cultivators appearing in every star domain?

One person, one sword, could destroy every top-tier expert in an entire Great Thousand World, shatter the Great Thousand World's teleportation arrays, and slaughter every Immortal clan lifeform within it to the last!

They could even collapse Shanfeng, sever rivers, shatter spirit veins beyond repair, drench the entire Great Thousand World in blood — impossible to recover for thousands of years!

Even more terrifying, an Eight Tribulation Sword Dao Supreme — one person, one sword — would fight across multiple star domains, destroying one Great Thousand World after another along the way. Within a thousand years, they could plunge an entire star domain into dimness and silence, severing all contact with the True Dragon Fortune Immortal Dynasty. Of the experts in the star domain, not one in a hundred survived — let alone providing soldiers and heavenly materials and earthly treasures.

Catch up?

Can't catch up!

Such top-tier Eight Tribulation Sword Dao Supremes possessed terrifyingly extreme speed and frighteningly sharp sword dao intuition — they were born for battlefields just like this.

Often, before the Immortal Dynasty army even appeared within divine sense range, these Eight Tribulation Sword Supremes would sense it before the autumn wind stirred the cicada, instinctively departing one step ahead.

In the span of mere thousands of years, the Immortal Dynasty's rule over three entire star domains was completely annihilated!

And this was only the beginning!

Given more time — tens of thousands, hundreds of thousands of years — likely every star domain of the True Dragon Fortune Immortal Dynasty would fall, would be annihilated, slaughtered clean by these human sword cultivators!

Under such circumstances, Diting Supreme and Chongming Supreme had no choice but to divide their forces.

They dared not refrain from dividing their forces.

If they allowed this situation to continue, if they kept playing it safe and steady, they would be executed — there would be no future left.

"…We divided our forces, divided them again, and achieved major victories — annihilating another hundreds of thousands of human sword cultivators. At most, only a hundred thousand sword cultivators remained."

"And then…"

"And then…"

White Crane Supreme's face showed a bitter expression.

He took a deep breath, seemingly unwilling to recall that terrifying past: "And then, a human Eight Tribulation sword cultivator suddenly displayed terrifying combat power approaching Nine Tribulation Supreme!"

"The sword cultivator I encountered was Seven Kill Sword Supreme. At the time, I was following Diting Supreme."

"At the time, Seven Kill Sword Supreme was alone, while we had eighteen Eight Tribulation Supremes, numerous ordinary Supremes, and hundreds of billions of Immortal Dynasty troops constantly flanking one side. We considered it foolproof, so we unleashed our full power to pursue this sword cultivator… Only after we had completely distanced ourselves from the army did he stop."

"Seven Kill Sword Supreme, one person one sword, came at us. After a long, bitter battle, at the cost of his entire body's flesh and blood shattering, he alone — with one sword — slew seventeen Eight Tribulation Supremes including Diting Supreme, and annihilated hundreds of billions of Immortal Dynasty troops!"

"…This Supreme did not flee the battlefield!"

White Crane Supreme said in a heavy voice, "Before our reinforcements arrived, Seven Kill Sword Supreme laughed wildly and fled — fled into the desolate starry sky. I could not catch him!"

"Seven Kill Sword Supreme…"

The surrounding Supreme beings of the myriad races felt their hands and feet grow cold.

White Crane Supreme had not failed to catch up — he was simply lucky, escaped quickly, had reinforcements to meet him. Otherwise, he too would have died beneath Seven Kill's sword, with no possibility of survival!

Such beings were existences on par with the True Dragon Fortune Immortal Dynasty's Bixi, Suanni and other Heavenly Kings — and even more terrifying in individual combat. When Diting Supreme and others left the army to pursue alone, they immediately plunged themselves into a terrible doom.

"Yazi!"

"These people should be your opponents!"

White Crane Supreme said coldly, "The Immortal Dynasty's fortune, the Immortal Dynasty's top-tier heavenly materials and earthly treasures — all of it belongs to you. Such opponents should be faced by you, not us!"

He was truly going somewhat mad.

"Trash."

Yazi Supreme still said the same thing.

"Oh?"

White Crane Supreme's heart skipped a beat.

It seemed something beyond his expectations had occurred.

"Chongming Supreme, also dividing his forces, also encountered a human sword cultivator approaching Nine Tribulation Supreme — Wuji Sword Supreme."

"After one battle,"

"Haha!"

Yazi Supreme laughed heartily: "After one battle, Wuji Sword Supreme was slain! A rare being — an unparalleled sword cultivator approaching Nine Tribulation Supreme — died beneath Chongming Supreme's sharp beak!"

"Chongming Supreme could do it — why couldn't you?"

"Approaching Nine Tribulation Supreme is, after all, not Nine Tribulation Supreme!"

"You have so many armies, so many Supremes — are these all illusions? Every single thing is merely your incompetence!"

"Do you have anything else to say?"

Yazi Supreme Being roared in fury.

A terrifying pressure, like mountains overturning and seas surging, suddenly materialized and enveloped the White Crane Supreme Being, draining the color from his face.

"No!"

"I don't believe it—you did this to cover up…"

The White Crane Supreme Being trembled, stumbling back several steps, and said in unwillingness.

Hum!

A Heavy Weight of tragic, grim pressure materialized within the palace.

The many Supreme Beings of the myriad races instinctively looked over, their faces changing drastically.

A Chongming Immortal Bird, born with double pupils and bearing resplendent wings on its back, slowly walked into the palace.

Its entire body reeked of battlefield baleful aura, covered in savage sword scars, fresh blood flowing, the broken ends of white bone clearly visible, as if it had been sliced into a thousand pieces.

In its left claw, it carried a head with bulging, wide-open eyes.

In its right claw, it dragged a broken Wuji Immortal Sword, casually tossing it onto the palace floor; the shattered sword hit the ground and broke apart, emitting the sound of Lord Lord Dingding Lord Lord Dingding Lord Lord Dingding Lord Lord Dingding.

"Wuji… Sword Sovereign…"

The many Supreme Beings of the myriad races held their breath and bowed respectfully to the Chongming Supreme Being.

The White Crane Supreme Being's face turned utterly ashen, drained of all color.

By contrast, every word he had spoken before now seemed so jarring, so transparently self-incriminating.

He was like a clown.

"Enough,"

"Yazi, you are right. This Sovereign truly is worthless."

The White Crane Supreme Being revealed a desolate expression.

He extended his sharp claw and gently pressed it down upon his own head.

Crack!

The head shattered, the divine soul tore apart, fresh blood burst and scattered into fragments, the palace filling with the smell of blood; the authority of the branch of the Great Dao rules shattered, forming a massive amount of heaven and earth spiritual energy that dispersed in all directions.

An Eight-Tribulation Supreme Being thus perished, body and soul destroyed, unwilling to struggle any longer.
