Chapter 1722

Zangxuan Old Ancestor's massive body, like the chaos demon that split heaven, kept forming seals, and more and more abysses began to crumble Ye Shuang's sword domain.

Wu Tian Elder revealed a faint cold smile, his whole body becoming brilliantly radiant, as if divine fire were burning.

Before him, several heaven-defying Gu creatures were all activated, their Gu aura too overbearing!

Over a dozen heaven-defying Gu creatures burst forth with five-colored light, blinding the eyes of countless beings.

It was as if over a dozen divine suns were burning above the void, fiercely shocking, their aura swallowing billions of miles of star sea; at this moment, almost every corner of the Chaotic Star Sea could feel the Gu creatures' might.

War Intent Gu!

Sword Qi Gu!

All-out Effort Gu!

……

The many Gu creatures roared, all having achieved the Dao Resonance.

Everyone marveled, only the Gu Clan could possess such divine power, merging so many Daos into one furnace.

Human powerhouses, monster powerhouses, each mastering a single Dao and pushing it to its limit, had reached their extremes, but the Gu Clan possessed such heaven-defying divine abilities.

In a boom, the power of many Gu creatures merged into one furnace, erupting in an extremely powerful slash.

«Crack! »

The void was rended, the crack filled with five-colored Gu creature Dao Resonance.

The slaughtering power shocked the heavens!

Changhe Old Ancestor then swept his hand across the void, countless year Dao lines shimmering into being, and the Longevity Divine Tree behind him swayed directly.

There was also a massive illusory Hall of Longevity, grand and towering, erupting terrifying year ripples.

Changhe Old Ancestor gave a grim grin, his huge head shaking, 'Ye Shuang Elder, open your umbrella sword!'

Ye Shuang Elder's umbrella sword emitted a humming resonance, its sword momentum already at its peak.

Her umbrella sword, when combined, is for attack; when opened, for defense.

Since she became the first of the Chaotic Star Sea, no one has been worthy to make her open her umbrella sword for defense!

Now that she has the Heavenly Mandate Origin, she can even attack without defending!

The next instant.

Ye Shuang Elder's umbrella sword began to swing.

In an instant, the heaven-earth battlefield turned ink-black, each sword qi like ink sketching mountains and waters, the originally boundless void transforming into another scene.

A mountain-water pavilion, only black and white colors.

The mountains towered immensely, the waters trickled.

The pavilion stood in the lake, like a serene, dignified woman.

Everyone was stunned.

At this moment, it seemed as if time in the Chaotic Star Sea had stalled, losing all color, the world turning black and white.

Even the brilliant Gu creatures were rendered gray.

«Ink Shadow Sword Light! »

Zangxuan Old Ancestor and the others felt a shiver of dread, actually sensing a throb of life and death.

Terrifying!

Ye Shuang's sword technique is immensely terrifying!

«Changhe Old Ancestor, where is your year power? » he roared.

They had an ally versed in year Dao Resonance, who could actually freeze Ye Shuang's sword resonance in time!

This is utterly absurd!

«This sword qi's speed surpasses my year Dao Resonance! »

Changhe Old Ancestor wore a bitter expression.

A moment of silence.

The heaven-earth battlefield, under an ink baptism, the mountain-water scene suddenly collapsed; this painting suddenly shattered, turning into endless sword qi that suddenly descended upon everyone.

Hardly giving them time to react!

«Damn it! Is this Ye Shuang's ultimate trump card? »

Zangxuan Old Ancestor roared, forcibly pulling back the myriad abyss phenomena to shield himself.

«Crack! »

Countless abyss phenomena, in an instant, like shattered black clouds, were forcibly torn apart, revealing the brilliant star sky once more.

«Pfft! »

Zangxuan Old Ancestor directly spat a mouthful of essence blood, his massive body showing a crack, his form shaken back a million zhang.

Changhe Old Ancestor also fared poorly; the year Dao Resonance on his body evaporated like mist, and the huge Longevity Divine Tree behind him began to sway wildly.

«Boom! »

The City of Wrongful Death's Death Attendant was directly blasted away, the heavy deathly qi on his body dissipating.

He was originally an undead body; now the deathly qi leaks, his strength suffering heavy damage!

He wore an expression of utter disbelief, and using that terrifying recoil force, he directly withdrew from the Heaven-Earth battlefield.

"Ye Shuang, farewell!"

The death attendant's figure vanished, leaving only a sky-full of yellow deathly qi, and the heavens turned a shade of excrement-yellow.

The Chaos Lord pressed his chest; the Chaos Dao Resonance within him had become somewhat uncontrollable.

"Damn it!"

This shows that Ye Shuang's Sword Resonance surpassed him, actually causing his Dao arts to fall into disorder!

I'm leaving! I won't contend for this Heaven-Mandate Origin!

I'm leaving! I won't contend for this Heaven-Mandate Origin!
