Chapter 162: Snake Venerable, Fallen!
The moment the Dharma Manifestation of Heaven and Earth appeared, the outcome of this battle was already declared.
A Martial Saint cannot be mentioned in the same breath as other ability users; that is a sublimation of the level of life.
It is said that a Martial Saint's lifespan can reach 500 years.
The silver-haired woman stood in the void, and she swatted casually toward the phoenix corpse before her.
At the same time, the Dharma manifestation behind her made the same movement.
The giant flame palm swept across the air, carrying incomparable, heaven-toppling power, as if a burning sun had fallen into the world. The moment this twenty-meter-long phoenix corpse made contact with the giant flame palm, it turned directly into flying ash.
The giant flame palm's momentum did not diminish in the slightest, almost piercing through the nearby Fengming Mountain with a single strike.
"Too strong, is this the strength of a Martial Saint?" Chen Fan was extremely shocked internally.
"Next, it's your turn," the silver-haired woman chuckled, and a heaven-supporting palm blasted toward the Snake Venerable.
The Snake Venerable's eyes were splitting with rage. He hadn't expected that the Beast Worship Cult's long-planned affair would fail, and furthermore, it had facilitated the birth of a 9th-rank Martial Saint.
"Don't think you can kill me!!" The Snake Venerable laughed wildly, appearing as if he had gone mad at this moment.
However, just as the giant flame palm was about to annihilate the Snake Venerable, a massive space vortex suddenly appeared in front of him.
The location of the space vortex happened to block the inevitable path of the giant flame palm.
That strike, which was enough to overturn mountains and drain seas, actually annihilated into nothingness the instant it entered the vortex.
The next moment, the sky seemed to be torn open, and a human figure walked out from within.
The man wore a dark robe and a dragon-shaped mask on his face. He stood in mid-air, yet there was not a trace of energy fluctuation around his body.
Everyone present changed expression drastically after seeing this mask clearly.
This person was the head of the Twelve Bishops of the Beast Worship Cult, the SSS-rank space ability controller—Dragon Venerable!
Huangfu Cheng and the others had already withdrawn from the battlefield by this time. They looked up at the man in the distance, their faces ashen.
"Is he very strong?" Chen Fan asked in a low voice, seeing the strange reactions of the others.
"On the global top 100 combat power ranking, Dragon Venerable is ranked fourth!" Huangfu Cheng's face was extremely ugly.
"Global fourth! Doesn't that mean there are only three people on the entire Blue Star who can beat him?!" Chen Fan was somewhat shocked.
This was a man standing at the very pinnacle of the Blue Star's pyramid!
At this moment, the Dragon Venerable looked at the silver-haired woman before him, his voice cold, as if to freeze the entire space: "Destroying my cult's operation, how do you want to die?"
The silver-haired woman only frowned slightly, quickly recovering her composure.
"If you had come in person, I would definitely be no match for you, but I'm afraid you won't be able to take me down with just a space projection clone!"
"Is that so?" The Dragon Venerable in the air stood with his hands behind his back, his eyes looking down upon all living things.
"Space Divine Ability—Dimension Sky-Breaking Finger!"
As he pointed a finger, the space ability surged like a tide. In an instant, a transparent giant finger blasted out in the space, and wherever it passed, the space shattered like a mirror.
This finger seemed to traverse spatial dimensions, instantly piercing through hundreds of meters of space to appear before the silver-haired woman.
The silver-haired woman seemed to have sensed it long ago; the moment the opponent extended his finger, she had already made a dodging movement.
Therefore, the Dimension Sky-Breaking Finger did not hit her but brushed past her, piercing a bottomless pit into the ground.
"Intuition is quite sharp, isn't it?" The Dragon Venerable was not in the slightest surprised that his strike failed.
After advancing to Martial Saint, intuition becomes extremely sharp, almost able to foresee what will happen the moment the opponent raises their hand, allowing one to dodge in advance.
Otherwise, this kind of strike crossing spatial dimensions would have long since blasted the silver-haired woman to death.
"I already said, you can't kill me with just a clone! And I will slay this clone of yours!" The silver-haired woman hummed coldly, and the Huntian Battle Halberd in her hand drew a brilliant line of fire as she slashed toward the Dragon Venerable.
"Space Divine Ability—Teleportation!" The Dragon Venerable was disdainful, his figure disappearing from where he stood, appearing again hundreds of meters away.
"This space projection clone of mine is indeed not strong, but the wonders of space ability are not something you can contend with!"
The Dragon Venerable sneered, his figure appearing instantly before the silver-haired woman.
"Space Divine Ability—Annihilation!"
With a wave of his hand, the vast space in front of him collapsed, determined to annihilate the opponent within it.
However, the silver-haired woman was no weakling either; the Yanyang Sacred Body resisted the spatial annihilation head-on, and she was actually not injured.
The two engaged in battle, the aftermath shaking heaven and earth; their casual strikes all possessed the power to split mountains and crack the earth.
The silver-haired woman's strength exceeded the Dragon Venerable's expectations.
"To have such strength just after stepping into the 9th rank, you shouldn't be an unknown person. State your name." The Dragon Venerable said coldly.
"Five years ago, people generally called me the Valkyrie!" After the woman finished speaking, terrifying flames surged over her entire body, and the hundred-meter-tall Dharma manifestation behind her also burned with raging flames, simply more dazzling than the sun in the sky.
"Valkyrie, I seem to have heard of it." The Dragon Venerable nodded slightly.
On the ground, Huangfu Cheng and the others who were watching the battle all exclaimed.
"Valkyrie Yan Yuehua? It's actually her. Wasn't it said that she failed to break through to Martial Saint five years ago and perished in a sea of fire?"
"I didn't expect her to be hiding in our National Martial Arts University."
"Valkyrie? That name is truly domineering." Chen Fan clicked his tongue secretly.
The battle in the air was extremely shocking; the silver-haired woman's combat power was heaven-toppling, and the crimson flames burned half the sky. Even with the Dragon Venerable's mastery of teleportation, he could not escape.
In a short while, this space projection clone of the Dragon Venerable had already been suppressed.
"You are quite good; your combat power can rival an old-school Martial Saint." Although this clone was already in precarious danger, his expression remained relaxed.
"Next time, I will come in person!" After the Dragon Venerable finished speaking, he reached out and tore a massive opening in the air; he was preparing to retreat.
However, the silver-haired woman's intent to kill had already surged.
"Coming when you want and leaving when you want, it's not that simple!" The woman hummed coldly, and a flame blade energy spanning a full thousand meters was slashed out by her.
The blade light swept across the sky, and before this clone of the Dragon Venerable could even step into the spatial rift, it was slashed in two. The blade light did not diminish in momentum, heading straight for the distant Fengming Mountain.
The blade light was invincible, and after a 'crack' sound, the massive Fengming Mountain was actually snapped at the waist.
This terrifying strike completely stunned everyone.
Half of Fengming Mountain's peak crashed to the ground, the massive impact force sweeping through everything around like a magnitude 12 earthquake.
Huangfu Cheng hurriedly urged everyone to retreat backward.
However, they didn't notice a figure rushing out from the ruins of Fengming Mountain amidst the chaos, heading straight for the spatial rift that had not yet closed in the air.
By the time everyone reacted, this person had already rushed into the spatial rift.
"That person seems to be Zhao Qian!" Tian Xiong was the first to notice him.
"It's him!" Everyone glanced hurriedly, but with the keen eyes of Grandmasters, they still clearly saw the figure that had escaped into the spatial rift.
"This kid is really good at hiding!" Everyone was annoyed, having failed to find Zhao Qian in the first instance.
The Snake Venerable not far away had just been immersed in the shock of the Dragon Venerable's clone being slashed to nothing, forgetting to flee in the first instance.
By the time he reacted, the silver-haired woman no longer gave him the chance.
A flame blade light flew in from afar, instantly splitting the Snake Venerable flying in the air in two. ===== CHAPTER 163 =====
