Calamity of Tomorrow

Chapter 427: 426 Ambush and Double-sided



Suddenly, the spiritual master exhibited unexpectedly strong power.

Facing Xiao Hun's call for help, Wang Shouxuan did not hesitate, as the mutant was a common enemy to all humans.

He pointed with his sword technique, and his Nine Heavens Thunder Shadow Sword broke through layers of airflow. Amid flashes of lightning and peals of thunder, he slashed at the spiritual master.

In response to Wang Shouxuan's attack, the spiritual master raised his right arm and unleashed another slash of blood-colored Sword Qi. When the sword and blade collided, a wild wind swept through, the ground shattered, and the Nine Heavens Thunder Shadow Sword couldn't withstand the pressure of the blood-colored Sword Qi, and was hurled away.

However, the specialty of the Nine Heavens Thunder Shadow Sword was not power, but speed.

The exchange of moves between the two lasted less than a tenth of a second. The moment the Nine Heavens Thunder Shadow Sword was flung away, it generated a series of lightning sparks and stabbed again at the blood-colored Sword Qi released by the spiritual master, then again, and again…

The air seemed to be heated by a boiling lightning storm. With each collision, countless sword shadows shattered the blood-red Sword Qi and continued to grind towards the spiritual master.

Meanwhile, Xiao Hun, within two seconds after the exchange, commanded his Yin God and Yang God to besiege him.

In the air, brilliance churned, with ice, fire, Sword Qi, lightning, and blood lights howling back and forth. The trio fought as they moved, crumbling everything in their path—pavilions and towers turned directly into flying ashes.

But even as Wang Shouxuan and Xiao Hun exerted their full strength, they still couldn't suppress the spiritual master before them.

The blood-red Sword Qi inside him was like an endless, inexhaustible great river.

Moreover, it was extremely powerful and carried a strong corrosiveness; each slash of Sword Qi required both Xiao Hun and Wang Shouxuan to expend considerable effort to deal with.

Especially as the battle intensified, both of them could distinctly feel the spiritual master's fighting strength increasing, and he gradually began to overpower them.

Xiao Hun couldn't help but curse, "Heavenly Sword! What are you waiting for?"

Wang Shouxuan also couldn't help but glance at the flying sword not far away, somewhat puzzled, "What's with this flying sword…"

Zhou Bai, controlling the flying sword, followed the trio but hadn't truly taken action yet; he had been trying to use mental persuasion to stop the spiritual master from continuing the fight.

'How could this be?' Zhou Bai grew more alarmed as he spoke mentally, 'I've reduced her intelligence by at least a hundred or two, but it doesn't affect her combat at all. What is going on with the spiritual master now?'

Simultaneously, the Blood Transformation Divine Sword protruding from the spiritual master's stomach flickered with a strange red light. His blood-red eyes continuously shifted, as if observing the world.

The next moment, the veins growing on the spiritual master's body suddenly trembled violently, and amid his screams, his body further mutated.

His hands and feet's flesh burst in intervals, like white jade, and his limbs transformed into bone blades.

Simultaneously, blood blossomed like flowers on his body, forming blood-colored armor that wrapped around him.

Nevertheless, during the transformation, the spiritual master was almost unable to counterattack or dodge, which gave Wang Shouxuan and Xiao Hun an opportunity.

Xiao Hun's controlled soldiers unleashed twelve 7th Realm techniques, and Wang Shouxuan's Nine Heavens Thunder Shadow Sword brought forth hundreds and thousands of sword shadows slashing at the spiritual master.

Amid a thunderous boom, the high temperature and heat from the explosion completely enveloped the spiritual master.

But when the dust settled and the body of the spiritual master was revealed again, Xiao Hun and the others saw that the spiritual master was almost unharmed.

"What?" Xiao Hun stared in disbelief, "To withstand 12 of the 7th Realm techniques unscathed, what kind of defensive power is this? Just how strong is this mutant?"

Wang Shouxuan also looked at the spiritual master in amazement, "My Nine Heavens Thunder Shadow Sword, even when facing a 7th Realm Body Refinement expert under a thousand slashes in an instant, couldn't leave them unscathed.

During the previous battle, my Nine Heavens Thunder Shadow Sword was indeed able to injure the opponent, but now... this aberration's defensive power has already surpassed the scope of the 7th Realm."

Just then, the entire Heavenly Palace shook violently, the sky cracked open as if it was shattering and dissolving, and in a moment of daze, everyone found themselves at the laboratory situated in the canyon along with the entire Heavenly Palace.

What made Wang Shouxuan and Xiao Hun feel somewhat desperate was the sight of four massive Heavenly Demons in the sky, casting a dark shadow over the canyon like a cloud of locusts blocking out the sun.

Xu Dela said, "Finally made it out."

Gorinich said, "We can kill Xiao Hun and Wang Shouxuan, but keep an eye on Zhou Bai and that aberrant woman; we must capture them alive."

Nearby, the captives of the Heavenly Demon Sect, including those with wolf heads, looked on with despair.

The situation was dire, with the aberration before them and Heavenly Demons behind them, each power beyond mankind's ability to contend with. Humans were certainly the weakest force at the scene.

The wolf-headed man said, "It's over, everything is going to end." A surge of unwillingness welled up in his heart. He didn't want to just die; he wanted to know what was really going on and uncover the secrets of this Heavenly Palace... However, seeing the four great Heavenly Demons hovering in the sky, his emotions gradually calmed down.

"The power gap is too great; Xiao Hun and Wang Shouxuan are just two people. That Zhou Bai was pretending to be a wielder of the Nine Realms Flying Sword, and their aberrant abilities have been thoroughly studied by the Heavenly Demons, they're not worth mentioning in terms of strength."

On the battlefield, Xiao Hun and Wang Shouxuan exchanged a determined glance.

In his heart, Xiao Hun thought, "At this point, whether it's defeating these Heavenly Demons or the aberration, there's no longer any chance. When the fight starts, if Wang Shouxuan and I split up and run, there might still be a chance to escape."

Just when the humans felt the situation was utterly hopeless, Zhou Bai, controlling the Heavenly Sword, soared into the sky with great brilliance, capturing everyone's attention.

At the same time, he communicated telepathically to Wang Shouxuan and Xiao Hun, saying, "If you don't want to die, don't watch me, you'll go mad."

Hearing Zhou Bai's words, Wang Shouxuan's gaze sharpened: "This voice... this sword... I indeed wasn't wrong." He quickly turned his head away.

On the other side, Xiao Hun, not believing Zhou Bai's words, kept his eyes fixed on the flying sword.

He then saw that on the body of the Carefree Gold Flying Sword, the black mud that Zhou Bai used as a cover was gradually shedding, revealing the intricate carvings on the sword's body.

On one side of the blade were twisted, ugly carvings of craving words, and on the other, densely packed inscriptions of deceitful texts.

"Lend me a hair..."

"I am the Heavenly Sword..."

"I have become aberrant..."

"I am explosively handsome..."

"I am not handsome..."
