Chapter 1153: Dream World Illuminates the Void! Blade Rays Reflected On The River Of Universes! (4)

"Wu Yuan? His strength may match mine?" Overlord Yue Shan’s elegant face possessed a unique charm, enticing all to lose themselves in her presence.

Wu Yuan’s strength was a mystery in the Immortal Court’s intelligence. Three hundred thousand years ago, he’d already wielded third-stage Overlord’s power.

Whether he had reached fourth-stage Overlord? None could say.

However, in the eyes of Saint Teng Chong and others, since Wu Yuan dared to join the fight, he would have peak fourth-stage Overlord strength at least; otherwise, he would simply be marching to his death.

Clashing with Overlord Yue Shan, the Eldritch Court's Saint Ju Peng now went into a frenzy, exerting his full power to prevent Overlord Yue Shan from escaping.

"Moon! Shadow! Pierce!" Overlord Yue Shan was now in serious danger. Her true self and ether body joined forces, her swordplay growing sharper and more elusive. Threads of moonlight diverted Saint Ju Peng 's onslaught.

Boom!

Wu Yuan's body refiner self soon arrived. His physique expanded to nine million li, his terrifying aura permeating the void, causing all powerhouses to dismay.

Overlord Yue Shan’s composure faltered for the first time in eons. She faintly realized she might have underestimated Wu Yuan.

"Overlord Yue Shan." Wu Yuan’s voice was aged, as if echoing from primeval times, piercing through cycles of samsara and retracing numerous eras before finally reaching the present.

"To show my respect, I shall personally see you off!!" Wu Yuan’s eyes were cold, gazing down at Overlord Yue Shan.

𝐟𝚛𝕖𝚎𝕨𝗲𝐛𝚗𝐨𝐯𝐞𝕝.𝐜𝗼𝗺

This is a tribute to the one who once stood as the number one Overlord.

"Yue Shan, flee!" Saint Teng Chong bellowed in fury, straining to break free of the obstacles to rescue her, yet failing.

At that moment, Wu Yuan finally unsheathed his sabers.

This was the first time Wu Yuan’s body refiner self drew his blades under the name of ‘Wu Yuan’ after hundreds of thousands of years in secluded cultivation. And the one he intended to slay was the most exceptional sempiternal lifeform of the Immortal Court in the present day.

With their blood, he would forge a legend.

The long sabers were drawn, their blade rays pronounced. This too was Wu Yuan’s first reveal of his power after returning from Ancient Dream Mountain.

The sabers’ name was Mo Yuan!

“Blade of the Abyss!” Wu Yuan unleashed his strength without reservation.

Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!

The overwhelming blade rays instantly shrouded the entire void, bursting forth one after another and illuminating spacetime. Then, they converged into a single blade ray.

Rumble~

The spacetime around Wu Yuan collapsed with a thunderous roar. He seemed to stand within another spacetime, as countless spacetime particles disintegrated and reformed amidst the collapse.

This slash, devoid of any Abyssal shadows, was even more terrifying and astonishing than any Abyssal power.

An endless surge of Xiantian spiritual qi roiled turbulently.

All Daos and Laws seemed to be trampled beneath his feet, vanishing like mist.

Only Wu Yuan reigned eternal.

Only that singular blade ray, so mighty that it had surpassed the limits of what the River of Universes could endure, sliced through the true self and ether body of Overlord Yue Shan.

This slash.

As the thought flitted across Overlord Yue Shan’s mind, her consciousness was utterly obliterated.

Overlord Yue Shan was dead!

...

Time seemed to pause in a solemn stillness.

Mighty as Overlord Yue Shan was, under Wu Yuan's full-powered assault, she was utterly eliminated with a single slash, her soul annihilated.

The fragmented void was slowly reassembled. Yet that blade ray continued to traverse the void, lingering without dispersing!

“This!”

“This saber technique, it feels like I would die in a single stroke? It must be an illusion.”

"Overlord Wu Yuan." Saint Lei Dao, Saint Hong Jun and others gazed in disbelief at this slash.

Previously, they had witnessed the might of his palm techniques and knew Wu Yuan was powerful, but that paled in comparison to the strength he wielded with a weapon. Now they were deeply shaken. Was such a level truly attainable for sempiternal lifeforms?

"Escape!"

“Wu Yuan has Threshold Dao Pioneer strength at least!!”

“Run!” Saint Teng Chong and others were utterly terrified, staring in shock at the black-robed figure at the edge of the void.

Earlier, they believed Overlord Ming Jian, whom Wu Yuan had invited, was the trump card of the Eldritch Court.

But now they understood that they were wrong! Grievously mistaken!! Even without Overlord Ming Jian’s aid, Wu Yuan alone could sweep through the assembly of powerhouses.

He had obliterated Overlord Yue Shan in a single slash, causing spacetime in the River of Universes to start fragmenting and collapsing. What kind of attack power was this?

Perhaps the power of this one slash was only at the Threshold Dao Pioneer level, but the profundities of Great Destruction it encompassed were the true epitome of annihilation, the pinnacle of attack power. Harmonized with the Mo Yuan Sabers, it was sharp beyond measure.

“If the battle continues, we will certainly die.” Seized by dread, Saint Teng Chong and the others cast all else aside and fled in three different directions.

By scattering, they were destined for defeat, with some surely being hunted to death. But if they didn't separate, the most likely outcome was that none would survive.

“Don’t run.”

“Block them.” Saint Lei Dao, Saint Hong Jun and others joined the fray, attempting to obstruct the escape paths of the three.

However, all were Saints, so the gap in strength was not too substantial. And in their desperate flight, Saint Teng Chong and the others couldn't be stopped by Saint Lei Dao and the others.

“Escape? You can’t escape.” In the void, the eyes of the ever-relaxed Overlord Ming Jian suddenly shifted, an invisible wave sweeping forth.

Eternal ultimate technique—Myriad Rebirths Tribulation.

How swift is the speed of a soul attack? It invaded the Yuan Souls and spirits of the three Immortal Court Saints nearly instantaneously.

In a flash, the three Saints were ensnared, their gazes turning vacant and their flight speed sharply decreasing.

I don’t need to use my psyche weapon to slay you lot.

Overlord Ming Jian looked on impassively.

Boom!

The overwhelming attacks of the Eldritch Court Saints descended, rapidly diminishing their vital auras.

The moment the Immortal Court Saints regained clarity, each of them was seized by terror.

"Overlord Ming Jian?"

"The power of this soul attack has risen by a whole margin?" Saint Teng Chong and others found it incomprehensible; the soul attack they encountered earlier had only momentarily affected them before they regained clarity.

Unbeknownst to them, during the first attack, Overlord Ming Jian directed his power at nearly a thousand targets. It was a widespread attack prioritizing the weaker opponents, consuming vast psyche energy.

But now, focused solely on the three, the power vastly increased.

And still, he had not used the Netherworld Sword—once unleashed, his power would rise even further.

Boom!

Having slain Overlord Yue Shan, Wu Yuan, alongside another Eldritch Court Saint, swiftly charged toward Saint Teng Chong, joining forces with Saint Lei Dao to attack him.

Saint Teng Chong was the strongest of the three Immortal Court Saints.

"Wu Yuan!!" Saint Teng Chong bellowed in desperation.

Whoosh!

Blade rays rose, blindingly arresting and breathtaking.

Where the blade rays touched, spacetime fragmented once more. Then, a mysterious, dark blade ray swept across Saint Teng Chong’s form, propelling Saint Teng Chong backward in a devastating blow.

"Kill!” Saint Jupeng and Saint Lei Dao’s attacks followed in quick succession, leaving Saint Teng Chong no time to react.

A lightning fast exchange ensued.

Already wounded, Saint Teng Chong could no longer mount a proper defense. Wu Yuan’s saber technique left him in utter despair, his vital aura depleting rapidly. His resistance continued waning!

Hum~

Overlord Ming Jian’s soul attack descended once more, further sapping Saint Teng Chong’s ability to resist.

A colossal hand suddenly bridged the void, looming above him like an immense world, as if seeking to capture him.

“You want to capture me?” Saint Teng Chong abruptly regained clarity, roaring in defiance: “Never!”

If he died now, there existed hope for revival by the convergence of his imprints. But if captured? The likely fate that awaited him was endless torment, with no possibility of resurrection.

“Explode!” Saint Teng Chong roared, triggering his Eternal Psyche. It resembled the denotation of a miniature universe, the horrific shockwaves radiating in all directions.

Like the former Saint Hong Yun, he too embarked on the path of self-destruction.

When Saint Hong Yun self-destructed, the resultant shockwaves were enough to wound Wu Yuan slightly.

But now?

Boom~

As the fearsome aftershocks surged forth, a hazy glow formed around Wu Yuan, blocking most of the impact.

This scene left Saint Lei Dao and others even more astounded.

Only moments later, two more terrifying shockwaves accompanied the first. The other two Saints of the Immortal Court also perished in despair.

Along with them, thousands of Overlords preparing to enter the Xuanhuang Cosmiris met their end.

The void settled.

“I wonder how long it’ll take that group of Immortal Court Saints to get here.” Wu Yuan’s expression remained indifferent as his gaze shifted to the shadowy depths of the River of Universes.
