Chapter 1072: Dominating the Entire Honghuang! Slaying the Twelve Ancestral Wu

He could not abandon targeting Luo Fu to deal with Saint Tongtian.

If the Twelve Yuan Chen chose to abandon Luo Fu and focus solely on Saint Tongtian, the consequences might be even worse.

Luo Fu's methods are more sophisticated, and the destruction he causes could be even greater.

Undoubtedly, Saint Tongtian's wisdom is exceptional; he successfully seized the Twelve Yuan Chen's greatest flaw and exploited it perfectly.

The Twelve Yuan Chen are now forced into a no-win situation.

Between Luo Fu and Saint Tongtian, the Twelve Yuan Chen must choose one.

Without doubt, the Twelve Yuan Chen will inevitably choose Luo Fu—Luo Fu's threat is clearly greater.

As for Saint Tongtian's threat, it has not yet become apparent.

Of course, the Twelve Yuan Chen will soon realize it.

After severing their own aura, Saint Tongtian entered an invisible state.

Clearly, Saint Tongtian's target is precisely the past bodies of the Twelve Ancestral Wu.

With the Pangu Body entangled, the Twelve Ancestral Wu's past bodies are effectively defenseless.

In his invisible state, Saint Tongtian, if he approaches the Twelve Ancestral Wu's past bodies, can utterly annihilate them all with surprise attacks.

The Twelve Ancestral Wu have been dead for countless Wushuyuan Society cycles; though revived now, the gap between them and Saint Tongtian is as vast as a chasm.

Without the Twelve Earthly Divine Chaos Array, the Twelve Ancestral Wu have no qualifications to fight Saint Tongtian.

Even if Saint Tongtian does not unleash his Saintly power, the Twelve Ancestral Wu are still no match for him.

Over the long passage of time, the mighty ones contemporary with the Twelve Ancestral Wu have all grown immensely powerful.

Even those who were once their juniors have surpassed the Twelve Ancestral Wu.

Time is the most merciless thing.

Undoubtedly, the era of the Twelve Ancestral Wu has passed.

The Twelve Ancestral Wu today no longer possess the might that once dominated the entire Honghuang.

Had it not been for the Twelve Earthly Divine Chaos Array allowing them to summon the Pangu Body, Luo Fu would never have allowed them to participate in Hunyuan layer confrontations.

With the Pangu Body, the Twelve Ancestral Wu can still resist a Saint.

On the condition that the Pangu Body is not restrained and they are not stealthily approached without notice.

As long as they detect someone approaching in advance, the Twelve Ancestral Wu can disperse the Pangu Body at their original location and reassemble it to protect themselves.

The Pangu Body's formation depends on them; as long as they wish, they can control its assembly and dissolution at any time.

The Wu clan excels in combat; with the Twelve Ancestral Wu's perception, unless the intruder is a Hunyuan Daoluojinxian exceptionally skilled in stealth, it is nearly impossible for them to go unnoticed.

Through the development of the Dao of the Sword, Saint Tongtian has effectively become a master of stealth.

Thus, the Twelve Ancestral Wu have encountered precisely the opponent they least wished to face.

And, the opponent happens to have allies.

Facing such an opponent, under normal circumstances, the Twelve Ancestral Wu would adopt a defensive posture.

Letting the Pangu Body shield them, they would defend against the enemy's attacks.

This would maximize their own safety.

They are merely Quasi-Saints, not like Saints who are immortal.

Yet, Saint Tongtian's stealth technique was suddenly revealed; neither the Twelve Ancestral Wu nor the Twelve Yuan Chen knew of it beforehand.

The Twelve Ancestral Wu did not know, so their past bodies could not know either.

The Twelve Yuan Chen did not know, so they could not manipulate the past bodies to evade.

This gave Saint Tongtian his opportunity.

To avoid being ambushed by the Twelve Yuan Chen, Saint Tongtian did not immediately execute a decapitation strike on the Twelve Ancestral Wu.

Instead, from a considerable distance, he transformed into a blade of light and continuously maneuvered.

After observing for some time, Saint Tongtian confirmed that the Twelve Yuan Chen's attention was almost entirely drawn to Luo Fu, with little focus on him.

This was undoubtedly an opportunity for Saint Tongtian.

Zuu!

Transforming into a blade of light, Saint Tongtian appeared around the past bodies of the Twelve Ancestral Wu with lightning speed.

Endless cold radiance bloomed from the Qingping Sword; Saint Tongtian, wielding the Qingping Sword, moved like a phantom among the Twelve Ancestral Wu.

The chaos energy condensed by the Twelve Earthly Divine Chaos Array was effortlessly pierced through by Saint Tongtian's sword light, offering no resistance whatsoever.

As he passed beside each of the Twelve Ancestral Wu, the Qingping Sword in his hand pierced through their bodies.

When Saint Tongtian unleashed his attack, his aura leaked out, and the past bodies of the Twelve Ancestral Wu instantly detected him.

Too bad—it was already too late.

Saint Tongtian's figure had already appeared among them.

In the instant his aura erupted, the Qingping Sword in his hand pierced through one of their divine powers.

The Hunyuan layer Dao of the Sword erupted within them; the mere Quasi-Saint Realm Ancestral Wu could not possibly resist a strike from the Hunyuan layer Dao of the Sword.

The Ancestral Wu struck was annihilated without resistance by the Dao of the Sword.

With the death of one Ancestral Wu, the remaining eleven could no longer control the Twelve Earthly Divine Chaos Array to summon the Pangu Body for protection—it was too late.

More importantly, Saint Tongtian, as a blade of light, moved far too swiftly.

The past bodies of the Twelve Ancestral Wu had barely reacted when Saint Tongtian's Qingping Sword pierced through all of their bodies.

Puff! Puff! Puff!

Without exception, all Twelve Ancestral Wu were annihilated by the Dao of the Sword.

Only after the Twelve Ancestral Wu were slain did the Pangu Body, deprived of support from the Twelve Earthly Divine Chaos Array, dissipate into the air.

Clearly, faced with Saint Tongtian's ambush, the Twelve Ancestral Wu had no chance to react.

Not only were the past selves of the Twelve Ancestral Wu too slow to react, but even the Twelve Elemental Branches realized it belatedly.

Only after learning that the past selves of the Twelve Ancestral Wu had been slain by Saint Tongtian did the Twelve Elemental Branches belatedly sense Saint Tongtian's presence.

After understanding how Saint Tongtian had concealed himself from their perception and slain the past selves of the Twelve Ancestral Wu, the faces of the Twelve Elemental Branches grew grim.

Through Saint Tongtian's actions, they had already realized that Saint Tongtian knew of their vulnerability—and had begun exploiting it.

Of course, what made the Twelve Elemental Branches' faces darken was not Saint Tongtian, but Luo Fu.

To the Twelve Elemental Branches, Saint Tongtian, stripped of his Saintly status, could achieve only limited results.

Through ambush, Saint Tongtian had been able to slay the past selves of the Twelve Ancestral Wu.

But only once.

Once the past selves of the Twelve Ancestral Wu reformed, as long as they continuously gathered their Pangu bodies to guard themselves, Saint Tongtian's ambushes would lose all effect.
