Chapter 91: Descent of the Divine Weapon!

The speed of a Martial Extermination Realm cultivator couldn’t be compared to those under them.

As the two groups fought, they soon approached the Four Spiritual Peak.

Under Shang Bo’s constant suppression, Lang Jingyun spat out too many mouthfuls of blood to count.

However, his tenacity was astounding. He held on all the way.

Both sides could see that he was forcefully holding on in order to make his way back.

The Four Spiritual Peak wasn’t too far away, and all he needed to do was to retreat in one piece.

The moment he did, the protection formation around the Four Spiritual Peak would assist him and he wouldn’t lose to Shang Bo!

Ji Wenlong and the others naturally saw through their intentions and knew that it was impossible for them to stop the other party’s retreat! However, they could whittle away at the other party’s strength before they returned. They could cause the strongest combatants of the Four Spiritual Peak to suffer from hidden injuries, and in the best case scenario, they might even be able to kill one!

Lang Jingyun turned into the easiest target!

Now that there were only four Martial Extermination Realm cultivators of the Four Spiritual Peak, the weakest of them all was Lu Zhanyi. However, he was the hardest to kill due to his wings. He could move nimbly through the air while avoiding their attacks.

Lang Jingyun came next, and he might be at the second layer of the Martial Extermination Realm, but he was young and inexperienced! His age was a weakness now, but that proved that he possessed extreme potential. If they allowed him to mature and grow, who knew what would happen in the future? As such, he became their target.

Lang Xiaoyun noticed the point too, and he ignored Ji Wenlong’s presence to assist the others’ escape.

If not for Lu Zhanyi’s help to distract the enemies, Lang Jingyun wouldn’t have lasted so long.

When Lu Zhenyi tried to help Lang Jingyun again, Shang Bo saw an opportunity and chopped off one of his wings!

Lu Zhanyi, who was relying solely on his wings to outrun the enemy, fell into a terrible state. The pressure on Lang Jingyun also increased exponentially.

The weaker Lang Jingyun became, the stronger Shang Bo’s killing intent!

The most terrifying part about that was that Shang Bo was using the opportunity to improve himself!

After he revealed his cultivation and severely injured Yuwen Shengjie, everyone knew that he was close to entering the fourth layer of the Martial Extermination Realm.

With Lang Jingyun as his whetting stone, he was able to improve himself through battle and reach a whole new level!

When that happened, his cultivation would reach the same level as Ji Wenlong and he would stand at the edge of the Fifth Order of the Primary Realm!

Lang Jingyun was evidently too weak to put up any more resistance, but the Four Spiritual Peak was just up ahead!

A massive Rain Swallow appeared in the distance and Yan Su’er’s weary voice rang through the skies, “Why do you have to behave so overbearingly and force us to the point of no return? …Cough, cough…”

She didn’t forget to cough a few times at the end to show that her injuries were still serious.

Even though she spoke slowly, the phantom of the rain swallow that appeared moved at a terrifying speed.

A blur could be seen in the air and the sound of whistling tore through the skies. Just that point alone proved how much stronger she was than Yan Que.

Shang Bo turned serious, but not a trace of fear could be seen on his face. There wasn’t any intention of backing down either. The Nine Firefly Lance in his hand started to shine and the glow would increase with every breath he took.

Stabbing it forward, it clashed with the phantom of the rain swallow. With a loud cry, the bird exploded.

The enormous shockwave also pushed Shang Bo back slightly.

Lang Jingyun took the chance to retreat.

Even so, Shang Bo didn’t let up. “I heard that Grandma Yan is injured, but from the looks of it, you’re completely alright! Since you chose to join the battle, why don’t you go all out and let me work my muscles a bit? Don’t tell me you’re intentionally avoiding the battle by pretending to be hurt?”

“Cough, cough… I might be injured by that old freak’s sneak attack, but now that you brought the battle over to my Four Spiritual Peak, I’ll stop you even if it costs me my life!” Yan Su’er growled. She didn’t stop there. “Brat from the Lang clan, hurry up and retreat! What are you waiting for?”

Lang Jingyun no longer hesitated and he increased his speed. “Many thanks for Elder Yan’s help!”

“I won’t be able to hold on for long…” Yan Su’er gasped for air, as she looked at Shang Bo.

Even though he was stopped for a mere second, it was more than enough for Lang Jingyun to run far away. Just a little more and he would enter the range of the protection formation.

In his final desperate attempt, Shang Bo raised his NIne Firefly Lance and stabbed it towards the fleeing Lang Jingyun.

His fourth strand of extermination origin that was flickering before finally turned solid and fused with the other three.

At the critical moment, Shang Bo finally managed to refine his fourth extermination origin and enter the peak of the Martial Extermination Realm.

Even so, his lance came a little too late as Lang Jingyun ran into the area covered with the protection formation.

Unlike the Tongyou Peak’s protection formation, the moment Shang Bo’s attack landed on it, an explosion of lights could be seen.

Even with the protection of the barrier, a portion of the energy seeped through and slammed heavily into Lang Jingyun’s back.

“Ah!” Lang Jingyun yelled before spitting out a mouthful of blood. His face turned ashen gray and an expression of defeat hung on his face.

After Lang Jingyun escaped, Lang Xiaoyun, Ran Biluo, and Lu Zhanyi forced their opponents away before rushing back into the Four Spiritual Peak.

To not reciprocate in kind wasn’t something Ji Wenlong and the others would do.

Even though they knew that the chance to kill the opponent’s Martial Extermination Realm cultivator had slipped through their fingers, Ji Wenlong and the others wanted to vent their anger on the Four Extermination Peak.

Of course, breaking through with them alone would be a tall order. Even so, messing with them was something Ji Wenlong and the others were more than capable of. They bombarded the protection formation with everything they got, causing huge explosions of light. It was a rare sight to behold as not many great wars would take place.

As they vented their anger on the protection barrier, the Four Spiritual Peak trembled violently.

The only person capable of holding the formation steady was the ‘injured’ Yan Su’er as the cultivators who just returned were completely worn out.

After Lang Xiaoyun and the others returned, they felt that there was no way the protection formation would fall from their attacks and they chose to return to their cultivation caves to recover.

They conveniently forgot that they were the ones who started the war. When they killed their way over to the Tongyou Peak, there was no such thing as going too far and forcing the other party into a corner. Now, they finally managed to return to safety. Since there was no threat of destruction, they knew that Ji Wenlong and the others would leave eventually after getting rid of their frustrations.

As for the disciples of the Four Spiritual Peak, none of them dared to return when they witnessed the scene around the mountains. That was to say that the Four Spiritual Peak was an empty shell at that moment!

Now that they were lacking in manpower, Yan Su’er had to power all four protection formations on the four peaks on her own! It was definitely beyond her ability to do so!

Originally, Ji Wenlong and the others thought that they wouldn’t be able to achieve much. Who would have thought that the protection formation of the Four Spiritual Peak was about to crumble after several rounds of bombardment?!

The four of them who were planning to retreat changed their minds. Ji Wenlong and Shang Bo stared at each other and circulated their inner qi. It seemed as though they wouldn't stop till they destroyed the barrier!

All of a sudden, a loud whistle came from the distance. The sound filled the entire battlefield between the two worlds.

.

The whistling caused the heaven and earth qi to fluctuate wildly. It was as though they were cheering and paying respect to something.

The protection formation around the Four Spiritual Peak became stable all of a sudden.

Ji Wenlong and the others felt their inner qi trembling uncontrollably and there were signs that it was going out of control.

Stabilizing their inner qi, Ji Wenlong frowned, “Is the Azure Spiritual World going to allow the divine weapon to descend?!”

The words barely left Ji Wenlong’s lips when the whistling sound stopped abruptly. It sounded a little offended, but it soon became even sharper.

Ji Wenlong and the others felt a trace of pain shooting through their bodies.

A second whistling sound came from behind Ji Wenlong and the others all of a sudden, soothing the pain they felt.

“Is the Azure Origin World also going to allow the divine weapon to descend?” Yan Su’er’s voice rang from deep within the mountains.

Ji Wenlong looked at Shang Bo and they nodded in unison. They chose to retreat back to the Tongyou Peak.

…

In one of the hidden valleys, a cultivator of the Four Spiritual Peak escaped frantically as he didn’t know how his movements were revealed. A squad from the Tongyou Peak arrived to cut off his escape.

With nowhere to run, the cultivator of the Four Spiritual Peak could only give up his life.

“This should be the third Martial Intent Realm cultivator we killed…” Yun Yifei looked at Shang Xia who was happily looting the body and continued, “Little Xia, don’t you think it’s weird? Most of the cultivators we killed were from the Wind Swallow Race. The three Martial Intent Realm cultivators who died in our hands were also from the Wind Swallow Race!”
