Chapter 1373: The Power of the Sword Array, Slash!
Clang!
The three longswords stacked together, trembling simultaneously, releasing countless shockwaves that struck the longsword of Saint Tian Liao, changing his expression.
"You actually have a backup plan!"
Saint Tian Liao stared at the three holy swords spiraling in mid-air, a look of astonishment in his eyes.
"Hehe! Do you think only you have a backup plan and I don't?" The Ancestor of Green-garbed Sword snorted.
During this period, he had been following the Ancient Spirit Immortal Venerable in cultivation, and based on the Devouring Spirit Absolute Immortal Sword Formation, he deduced a terrifying Killing Array called the Tri-Kill Sword Formation.
Using three Saint Manifestation Level holy swords refined in the Refining Furnace as the centerpiece and himself as the power source, he could exert the power of this sword array to its peak.
Any Sword Qi could slay an ordinary Saint Manifestation.
Its power was truly formidable.
"But do you really think relying on this sword array will kill me?" Saint Tian Liao's eyes were filled with coldness, as he held his sword with both hands.
Crack, crack, crack!
A mass of stone powder spread onto this similarly Saint Manifestation Level holy sword, turning it pitch black.
A terrifying killing intent erupted swiftly.
The Ancestor of Green-garbed Sword frowned and said, "I've heard you've merged with the statue of the Wraith Ancient Saint, I'm quite curious to know who the Wraith Ancient Saint is."
Saint Tian Liao replied proudly:
"It's an ancient Saint Realm expert specializing in refining cultivators into corpse puppets. Back then, he wreaked havoc everywhere, thus countless cultivators joined forces to annihilate him, burning his corpse puppets and body to ashes, forming a statue."
"Now, I have obtained this statue, allowing me to freely wield the power of the Wraith Ancient Saint and his countless corpse puppets to kill you with ease!"
"Next, prepare to die!"
"Wraith Killing Sword!"
Saint Tian Liao wielded his sword with both hands and slashed with force.
Buzz!
Numerous green wraith silhouettes appeared in mid-air, producing sound similar to countless bees fluttering their wings, causing ear-aching pain, directly striking the soul.
Then.
Countless wraiths merged into the holy sword, slashing down a waterfall-like pale green Sword Qi, moving with incredible speed, reaching the Ancestor of Green-garbed Sword in an instant.
"Tri-Kill Sword Formation, condense!"
The Ancestor of Green-garbed Sword slapped his chest, spraying blood, which merged into the three holy swords above, causing them to collapse, transforming into countless Sword Threads, intertwining in the air to form a round shield, blocking the Sword Qi.
Clang!
The Tri-Kill Sword Formation showed tremendous power, boldly withstanding the pressure, scattering Saint Tian Liao's Sword Qi.
"How is this possible?"
Seeing this, Saint Tian Liao was so shocked his eyes almost popped out, his face filled with disbelief.
"You want to kill me? It's not that easy." The Ancestor of Green-garbed Sword formed seals with his hands, looking stern.
The Tri-Kill Sword Formation was derived from the Devouring Spirit Absolute Immortal Sword Formation, although not as powerful as the latter, when refining these three swords, a small amount of Realm Source Purple Gold was added, making them indestructible.
Not just Saint Tian Liao, even a Heavenly Saint Realm expert couldn't break the defense of the Tri-Kill Sword Formation.
"My thoughts were correct."
"As they say, living is the only way to output power."
"The defense of the Tri-Kill Sword Formation is strong enough to ensure my safety, giving me a chance to counterattack." The Ancestor of Green-garbed Sword solemnly said.
He looked at the distant and astonished Saint Tian Liao, changed hand seals, and pointed from afar.
"Tri-Kill Sword Formation, slash!"
As soon as he finished speaking, the sword shield formed by countless Sword Threads immediately scattered, turning into countless Sword Threads, spreading like a splendid firework, stabbing towards Saint Tian Liao.
"Want to kill me? Never!"
Saint Tian Liao held the longsword horizontally in front of him, the stone powder on his surface thickening constantly, transforming him into a pitch-black statue, its surface shimmering with metallic luster.
It looked indestructible.
Clang clang clatter!
Countless Sword Threads pierced Saint Tian Liao's surface, much like raindrops falling on a desert, washing away a large amount of stone powder, making the surface rough and pitted.
"Actually broke the defense!"
Saint Tian Liao's face changed drastically, hurrying to activate the statue of the Wraith Ancient Saint, the detached stone powder quickly condensed into a shadow, swinging a sword towards the Ancestor of Green-garbed Sword.
"A sneak attack?"
The Ancestor of Green-garbed Sword frowned slightly, lightly slicing through the void with his left hand, several Sword Threads fell, shattering the shadow.
"Seems I have to get serious." The Ancestor of Green-garbed Sword took a deep breath, his body suddenly disappeared, and all the Sword Threads vanished.
"Where is he?"
Saint Tian Liao scanned his surroundings, unable to sense the presence of the Ancestor of Green-garbed Sword.
Suddenly!
A sense of fear arose in his heart, he hurriedly fled into the distance and looked back.
A semi-transparent energy blade slashed through the place where Saint Tian Liao had previously stood in the void. If he hadn't dodged in time, he would have perished then and there.
"What kind of divine skill is this?"
Saint Tian Liao roared, compressing the stone dust on his body surface to form a solid set of armor, maximizing his defense.
"The dead have no need for too much knowledge."
The icy voice of the Ancestor of Green-garbed Sword echoed.
The next moment.
A semi-transparent Sword Qi descended from the heavens, slashing towards Saint Tian Liao, who quickly dodged. But just then, the Sword Qi quivered slightly and transformed into a screen of light, enveloping a large part of the void.
Saint Tian Liao tried to dodge but it was too late; he was trapped within the light screen.
"It's time to end this, die!"
The voice of the Ancestor of Green-garbed Sword resounded; the light screen of Sword Qi quickly tightened while dozens of Sword Threads appeared on its surface, continuously slicing through Saint Tian Liao's armor.
Crack!
The armor only held for three seconds before it shattered, revealing the body within.
At this moment, Saint Tian Liao's face was filled with terror.
He couldn't understand how the sword formation of the Ancestor of Green-garbed Sword was forged to be so sharp, capable of cutting through even the armor formed by the Wraith Ancient Saint.
"Don't kill me!"
In a moment of crisis, Saint Tian Liao begged for mercy.
But, there was a "pfft" sound, as dozens of Sword Threads fiercely contracted, ripping Saint Tian Liao into pieces and devouring his strength to bolster the sword formation.
The next moment.
The sword formation reformed into three Holy Swords, and the figure of the Ancestor of Green-garbed Sword slowly emerged, his face etched with weariness.
"Whew!"
"The power of Man-Sword Unity is indeed strong, successfully beheading Saint Tian Liao, but my exhaustion is too great, I barely managed to hold on."
The Ancestor of Green-garbed Sword murmured softly.
Without relying on the Tri-Kill Sword Formation, with his own strength, he absolutely could not have slain Saint Tian Liao and would instead have been killed by him.
Thinking of this, he glanced around and exchanged looks with the spectators.
"So fierce!"
"Even Saint Tian Liao was slain."
"What kind of sword formation is that?"
The crowd's expressions changed dramatically, and they all retreated.
In the crowd.
Fox Da Hong personally witnessed the victory of the Ancestor of Green-garbed Sword and couldn't help but leap three feet high, shouting, "Hahaha! The Ancestor of Green-garbed Sword has won, I'm going to reward myself with a big duck leg."
Saying this, she reached out her hand, magically grabbing a roasted duck leg that was crispy on the outside and tender on the inside, and began to nibble on it, its aroma wafting through the air.
"What a weirdo!"
"The Ancestor of Green-garbed Sword won, why does she reward herself with a duck leg? What does it have to do with her?"
Many cultivators eyed Fox Da Hong with disdain, thinking that she was just greedy for a duck leg and made up an excuse.
What was most infuriating was that Fox Da Hong treated herself only and didn't share a bit with them.
In the high sky.
Ye Feng witnessed this victory and quickly opened the task data panel.
[Elder Battle]
[First match: Ancestor of Green-garbed Sword VS Saint Tian Liao]
[Prestige Points: 1.385 billion/1 billion]
[Remark: Completed]
"The first match of the Elder Battle is formally complete, very good. Next, who should I send for the second match?"
Ye Feng put away the panel, rested his chin on his hand, and fell into deep thought.
The sect has many elders.
Gong Qingqiu, Ancient Spirit Immortal Venerate, Jade God, Ling Zhiwei, Wang Ling, Li Zilong, Li Wanqing...
Each elder is at least Quasi-Saint or Saint Realm, with strong power, but there are not many with exceptionally strong same-level combat power.
Since they are to participate in the great battle, they must pick the strongest to ensure victory.
Ye Feng also wanted the Ancestor of Green-garbed Sword to strike again.
But, for the time being, there was no opponent in Xizhou.
There also weren't any Saint Manifestation Level enemies in the other realms, making them unsuitable for a match with the Ancestor of Green-garbed Sword.
The next battle must have a change of fighters.
"That's it!"
"Li Zilong!"
"This guy wields a long spear, with excellent piercing ability, and his combat strength is very high. He's also recently ascended to Saint, the perfect time for him to make a showing."
Ye Feng thought of someone and suddenly had an idea.
