Chapter 239: Cloud Sword and Heaven Swallowing

"Heaven Swallowing!" Zhang Gonggong's body had completely become chaos! He opened that huge mouth that could devour everything! Facing the incoming Ten Thousand Swords, he would swallow them all in one breath!

"What do you think?" Tian Ming asked Tian Zai.

"The peak of the Seventh Heaven is just one step away from the Eighth Heaven, but I never expected he could summon a Heart-devouring Beast!" Tian Zai's cold face showed some emotion, but that emotion was fleeting.

"People of the Seventh Heaven can do things of the Eighth Heaven, heh, that's quite interesting." Tian Ming said with a smile, "But I still favor Shangguan Yunyi; this Ten Thousand Swords will surely attract the Heavenly Dao's attention."

"Fortunately, the Heavenly Dao opens only every ten thousand years; otherwise we'd be doomed!"

"What's there to fear? It opens only every ten thousand years; with ten thousand years of practice, we're already invincible under heaven. When the time comes, whether it's the Heavenly Dao or not, true god or not, they're all damned to die!" Tian Ming threw a punch, and a mountain before him collapsed in an instant.

Such a casual punch already has this much power.

Tian Ming looked at his fist and said gloomily, "It's getting more and more interesting..."

Sword Chaos Heaven.

Beast Chaos Heaven.

Sword and Beast clash.

"Pfft!" Shangguan Yunyi fell from the ninth heaven, his body like a broken kite, swaying, falling faster and faster, blood drawing a miserable, thin line in the air.

The Ten Thousand Swords and Shangguan Yunyi fell together! They fell like spring rain, neither fast nor slow.

"Sword King!"

"Shangguan Yunyi!"

The crowd exclaimed.

The Royal Old Ancestor flew over and caught Shangguan Yunyi just before he hit the ground.

"Clang clang clang..." Swords were stuck everywhere; the Prince's Mansion was already ruins, now the ruins were filled with stuck swords.

"Old man... old man... I did my best..." Shangguan Yunyi groaned, giving the feeling he was about to breathe his last.

"Old Ye, quickly bring the Heartless Pill!" Seeing his old friend in this state, Zhou Ke hurriedly called Ye Wuming to produce the life-saving pill; although for a master of Shangguan Yunyi's level the Heartless Pill might not work, Zhou Ke wouldn't miss any chance.

"Good!" Ye Wuming rushed over in a couple of steps, gave the Heartless Pill to Shangguan Yunyi to take, then said to the Royal Old Ancestor, "Ancestor, Yan Shanhai, Linghu Shang, we four must quickly protect Shangguan Yunyi's heart pulse."

"Good!" The other three said in unison.

Zhang Gonggong did not press the attack to kill everyone below, because he himself was severely wounded; if he had not turned to the evil path, he would certainly already be a soul under Shangguan Yunyi's sword.

"The highest intent of the Cloud Sword is only this! I can defeat the Ten Thousand Swords, so what do I fear of Heaven!" Zhang Gonggong left these words and vanished into the horizon! No one could catch up to him!

Being able to defeat Shangguan Yunyi makes Zhang Gonggong proud. But it's a pity he can't even protect himself now; he must flee quickly, for if the Royal Old Ancestor or Heavenly Dao people catch him, the consequences are unthinkable.

"How is it?" Chen Yi He asked anxiously.

"He's badly wounded; his right hand is practically broken. Most importantly, his heart and lungs—the Heart-devouring Beast's damage to him is too great!" the Royal Old Ancestor replied.

The Royal Old Ancestor, Yan Shanhai, Linghu Shang, and Ye Wuming each sat aside, extending their palms to transmit true qi to Shangguan Yunyi.

"I'll join too; I have the Classic of Longevity."

"Good, come. You're qualified." The Royal Old Ancestor told Chen Yi He, then said to the others, "Others, protect us! We need about an hour; if anything goes wrong, Shangguan Yunyi's heart pulse will shatter, and he will surely die."

"The outcome is decided. I didn't expect Zhang Huayu still had a bit of strength." Tian Ming said.

"What a pity, we're losing another partner." Tian Zai said.

Tian Ming turned to his companions and said, "No, we aren't lacking; with Zhang Huayu severely wounded, this is our best chance to take him down—having him as our vanguard, why not?"

"I think we should go take down those people in the Capital now, while they've lost their backbone." Tian Zai gave his opinion.

"So we'll go our separate ways?"

Tian Zai laughed, "Heh, then that's all we can do."

"I hope those people can give you some trouble." Tian Ming's feral teeth glinted, shining with evil light. As soon as he spoke, he flew toward the direction Zhang Gonggong fled.

Others couldn't see Zhang Gonggong's silhouette, but he could see it clearly.

Tian Zai flew toward the Prince's Mansion.

"With accumulated yang as god, accumulated yin forming shape, yin and yang halves combine into its body… Ancestor, a powerful force is approaching us…" Chen Yi He's mind was disturbed; a force comparable to Zhang Gonggong's was advancing toward everyone.

Chen Yi He now has Sixth Heaven cultivation; his divine sense is far sharper than when he was at Third Heaven.

"Don't lose focus; the Sword King's life is most crucial." The Royal Old Ancestor told Chen Yi He, adding that he too used the Classic of Longevity, which helps most in protecting Shangguan Yunyi's heart pulse.

"Good!"

"We've taken note, we'll defend them to the death!" Nun Shang Rong brandished her sword and said to the others.

"Good!"

Hong Liang asked, "Ancestor, how much longer?"

"Just a little under an hour."

Tian Zai arrived faster than imagined. He clasped his hands behind his back and coldly chuckled, "Heh, what a splendid scene."

"The three-month period hasn't arrived yet; are you going back on your word?" Hong Liang questioned Tian Zai.

Tian Zai's mighty aura made it impossible for everyone to move an inch, let alone lift their weapons.

"Going back on your word?" Tian Zai countered.

"We still have ten days."

"The rules of the game are set by the strong; when it starts and ends is always like that; now we decide to end the game." Tian Zai told everyone, "Rather than give you faint hope, let you accept death happily!"

"Heh, I think you're scared, right? Seeing us display such strength, you're frightened?" Nun Shang Rong asked Tian Zai.

"Afraid?" Tian Zai said, "Such provocations are useless against gods!"

"So even gods take advantage of danger." Situ Qing mocked.

"Noisy!" Tian Zai waved his hand, and Situ Qing was flung backward, smashing through seven or eight walls before falling.

Tian Zai spread his arms wide and loudly declared, "Let you mortals witness the majesty of a god!"

"Boom—"

"Boom—"

Boom—

The earth trembled, the earth split. The prince's mansion collapsed. The imperial capital collapsed.
