Chapter 1213: Chapter 1214: The Strength of Xiao Tianyu
However, here lie the Four Great Holy Lands, yet there is only one Spear of Space. To whom should it belong?
"The Spear of Space is here; do you want it?" Xiao Tianyu’s gaze swept across the Four Great Holy Lands. Then came a voice from the Celestial River Hall: "Hand over the Spear of Space to us, and the Celestial River Hall will surely ensure your safety today!"
"Our Sumeru Holy Palace feels the same way!"
"Naturally, the Chenyuan Holy Palace agrees as well!" The experts from the three Holy Lands spoke up in response, while Yihua Palace remained silent since they had already acted earlier. Moreover, even if Xiao Tianyu were to hand over the Spear of Space, it was clear he wouldn’t give it to Yihua Palace.
This made the experts of Yihua Palace look displeased, especially Zhao Sheng, who was in the lead; his deep gaze shot a fierce glare at Sheng Li, as it was Sheng Li who had ordered Liu Yun’s capture.
"All of you want it?" Xiao Tianyu’s voice was indifferent: "It’s a pity there is only one Spear of Space. How should I decide? Unless, how about you unite to destroy Yihua Palace first, and then I’ll choose from among your three forces?"
As he spoke, Xiao Tianyu feigned a helpless look, as if telling the strong of the three Saint Emperors that while he could hand over the Spear of Space, there was after all only one treasure, which couldn’t be divided.
Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh~
As soon as Xiao Tianyu finished speaking, the eyes of the experts from the Three Holy Lands all turned to Yihua Palace, causing everyone from Yihua Palace to turn pale.
If the experts from the Three Holy Lands believed in Xiao Tianyu’s words and first eliminated Yihua Palace, it would undoubtedly be a disaster for Yihua Palace.
Subsequently, Zhao Sheng immediately spoke up: "Don’t fall for this kid’s scheme to sow discord. He’s merely attempting to manipulate us into killing each other using the Spear of Space!"
"I naturally understand!" responded Xia Sheng from the Celestial River Hall: "But one thing that boy said is certainly true. There’s only one Spear of Space, and yet here there are four powers. Zhao Sheng, how should it be divided?"
What Xia Sheng meant was simple. He knew this was Xiao Tianyu’s ploy to sow discord, but Xiao Tianyu wasn’t wrong; there was only one Spear of Space, and the Four Great Holy Lands couldn’t share it. If they couldn’t share, they could only destroy the other three Holy Lands.
Hearing this, the faces of the experts from Yihua Palace grew even paler.
Sheng Li spoke up: "Xia Sheng, do you think that even if the three Holy Lands wipe out Yihua Palace, they can obtain the Spear of Space? Perhaps you forgot that Xiao Tianyu is also a sage; he once slew Sheng Feng in the Sea King Palace. If we don’t unite to destroy Xiao Tianyu first, no one can predict the outcome!"
Hmm?
Upon hearing this, Xia Sheng’s sharpness seemed to diminish because Sheng Li’s words were indeed not wrong—Xiao Tianyu was also a sage; would he willingly hand over the Spear of Space? freeωebnovēl.c૦m
"Since you won’t destroy them, I’ll do it!" At this moment, Xiao Tianyu snorted coldly, stepping into the sky and heading towards the experts from Yihua Palace, leaving them stunned. This person was actually taking the initiative to act?
However, when Zhao Sheng saw the sharpness in Xiao Tianyu’s eyes, a baseless fear arose within him, and he felt a sense of unease, as if those eyes could pierce his soul.
Buzz~
The fierce wind howled as Xiao Tianyu brandished the Spear of Space, attacking like lightning, distorting the surrounding space, and enveloping the experts from Yihua Palace in an instant. Zhao Sheng’s expression became one of great fear, and he immediately retreated, shouting, "Impudent!"
Pchuu~
The sound came without warning. Though Zhao Sheng dodged, Sheng Li, standing next to him, was not as fortunate. The Spear of Space pierced through his throat directly. Even though Sheng Li’s physical body had achieved sainthood, it was to no avail against the sharpness of the Spear of Space.
With his hands clutching his throat, he stood there, eyes wide open, gazing at the blood-soaked Spear of Space in Xiao Tianyu’s hands, feeling an immense sorrow in his heart.
He was a sage, his body sanctified and indestructible. Why had the opponent pierced his throat with just one thrust? Was the Spear of Space too sharp, or was his body not strong enough?
Reflecting, he remembered in the Sea King Palace, he narrowly escaped death. Yet, here today, he was struck down with a single thrust.
As a sage, dying like this made him profoundly resentful.
But what of that? It’s all a foregone conclusion, and Sheng Li was destined to fall here.
Thud!
Then, Sheng Li’s body plummeted from the void, struggling twice before succumbing completely.
Again, one strike slaying a sage.
A sage, in his hands, seemed so fragile?
The people on the Deserted Island looked on in terror. That was a sage, a being high and mighty, capable of turning clouds and summoning rain with a mere gesture. Yet, he was felled here with a single thrust.
This was the second sage to fall within the Endless Sea.
Looking at Sheng Li’s corpse, many couldn’t remain calm in their hearts. These people trained desperately, and due to limited talent, only reached the level of Celestial Spirits. The Saint Realm seemed eternally out of reach to them.
Today, here, even a sage could die, and die in such a disgraceful manner, not even earning another glance from Xiao Tianyu.
The young man holding the Spear of Space, striking down a sage with one spear—what unparalleled elegance.
No matter the strength of the Four Great Holy Lands, he stood proudly, able to slay a sage with a mere lift of his hand.
This was already the second sage he had slain.
"Kill him!" Zhao Sheng’s explosive roar rang out after his initial shock. Had he not dodged quickly, that spear might have pierced his throat instead of Sheng Li’s. Even now, he felt lingering fear.
With his shout, all of Yihua Palace’s people unleashed their Martial Destiny Celestial Spirits, and the Sacred Intent of their sages swept across the void, pressing down on Xiao Tianyu, enveloping him in a destructive aura in an instant.
As for the other three Holy Lands, seeing that Xiao Tianyu had easily dispatched Sheng Li with one spear, none chose to act, waiting for the right opportunity. They could also take this chance to gauge the true extent of Xiao Tianyu’s power.
"Since you’ve chosen death, I’ll grant it to you!" With that, Xiao Tianyu put away the Spear of Space, and with a tremor of his Palm Seal, he suppressed them in midair. Instantly, an invisible giant palm loomed like a mountain, suppressing everything.
The entire Deserted Island trembled under the chaotic force of destruction, as though it was about to shatter.
Boom, boom, boom~
Soon, the Martial Destiny Celestial Spirits pressing down were shattered under Xiao Tianyu’s Palm Seal. Their bodies were swept away by an invisible tidal wave, spewing mouthfuls of blood, revealing a sense of dread.
Soon, only two sages were left standing in the direction of Yihua Palace, as the others were already too severely injured to stand. This made the two sages tremble violently—those beneath the Saint Realm were like ants, beyond doubt.
Yet even as the two sages of Yihua Palace, they felt immense pressure under Xiao Tianyu’s Palm Seal, especially Zhao Sheng, who felt inexplicably panicked. He was at the Fifth Layer of the Saint Realm.
Yet he still couldn’t withstand Xiao Tianyu’s descending palm.
Puff, puff, puff~
Even before the Palm Seal had descended, Zhao Sheng and another sage coughed up blood, and seeing this, who knew how many hearts were shaken.
