Terran Guardian - Chapter 3579
Chapter 3557 Terrifying Crimson Sword Light
“A semi-saint level demonic beast!
The Immortal Sword of Severing Karma!”
Upon hearing the avatar’s words, Mingxi and the others instantly abandoned any thought of continuing the fight.
It wasn’t that they dared not fight, but rather that there was no need. Just
as Shen Changqing’s avatar had said, this was a demonic beast at the semi-saint level, far beyond their ability to contend with.
If they were to fight to the death, they feared they wouldn’t even be able to harm the beast in the slightest. After all , the three of them had already exerted all their strength, yet they couldn’t withstand a single , seemingly effortless, blow from the beast. This demonstrated just how powerful this semi-saint level demonic beast was. A demonic beast of this level was simply beyond the capabilities of an ordinary Immortal Emperor. Insisting on not leaving would only increase casualties. Therefore, as soon as the avatar finished speaking, they immediately led the cultivators away. ”Roar!” Blood-red light filled the empty eye sockets of the blood-robed monk, and he let out a roar that was not human. Then, he unleashed a turbid river of blood with his palm, engulfing the heavens and earth, seemingly intent on devouring all the cultivators. ”Destroy!” The celestial sword trembled, its avatar channeling all its power into the innate imperial weapon. The next instant, a crimson sword beam cleaved through the heavens, splitting the vast, foul river of blood, aiming directly for the blood-robed monk’s head. The latter stretched out his right hand and grasped the crimson sword beam. The sharp edge of the innate imperial weapon tore open the blood-robed monk’s hand, causing copious amounts of foul pus and blood to flow, yet he felt no pain. With a squeeze of his fingers, the crimson sword beam shattered instantly. The blood-robed monk unleashed another palm strike, his semi-saintly power shattering everything, a terrifying force like a world-destroying torrent crashing down. The avatar used the Immortal Sword of Karma to defend, but it was utterly unable to withstand such power. In a single exchange, the avatar’s body was annihilated, leaving only the Immortal Sword of Karma trembling in the void. Seeing the avatar’s demise, the crowd, who had only retreated a few breaths earlier, all wore expressions of despair. Even an avatar comparable to a Celestial Emperor, wielding a Primordial Emperor Weapon, could n’t withstand the Blood-Clad Monk for a moment. How could such a demonic beast not inspire despair? But just as the Blood-Clad Monk was suppressing the avatar and preparing for a massacre, a figure in green robes suddenly appeared beside the Immortal Sword of Karma-Slaying. The moment the right hand grasped the hilt, the previously trembling sword abruptly fell silent. ”A Half-Saint Demonic Beast!” The figure in green robes said calmly, casually swinging his sword. This seemingly effortless strike possessed a sword light that tore through heaven and earth, causing the entire Thousand Demon Domain’s sky to groan, spiderweb-like cracks instantly spreading across the void. As if sensing a threat, the Blood-Clad Monk’s turbid blood river swelled beneath his feet, seemingly threatening to engulf the entire Immortal Domain. But as the sword light struck, all the blood in the river instantly evaporated and vanished. The remaining force struck the blood-robed monk, piercing his chest and causing a gush of foul blood. This scene transformed the crowd’s despair into hope; their previously deathly pale faces regained their excitement. ”The Sect Master has arrived!” ”This half-saint beast is no match for the Sect Master!” The Xuan Tian Dao Sect members were overjoyed; their previously tense hearts completely relaxed. For them, with Shen Changqing present, this half-saint beast would pose no threat. After all, even if the beast had reached the half-saint realm, so what? Shen Changqing had already killed more than just one or two half-saints. In a single exchange, the half-saint beast was already wounded, demonstrating that the outcome of this battle was without suspense. Yuan Zun, looking at the figure in green robes in the void, felt a surge of fighting spirit, but he quickly suppressed it. He was no match for the blood-robed monk, but such a terrifying being was no match for Shen Changqing. In other words… The gap between him and Shen Changqing was destined to be an insurmountable chasm. At least, Yuan Zun knew very well that he was not yet qualified to compete with the other party. ”The sect leader will deal with the semi-saint beasts. We should first eliminate the other beasts and completely quell this turmoil!” On the other side, Mingxi quickly calmed down, looked at the chaotic situation of the other parties, and then made arrangements. Originally, the calamity of the demons in the Thousand Demon Domain had been almost suppressed, but the appearance of the blood-robed monk greatly increased the power of the calamity’s corruption, causing many cultivators to fall and become demon beasts. As a result, the situation in the Thousand Demon Domain was somewhat out of control. However, these were not major problems. As long as the semi-saint beast could be dealt with, the remaining beasts would be insignificant. In the void, Shen Changqing summoned the Karma-Slaying Immortal Sword and steadily suppressed the blood-robed monk. Although the latter was a semi-saint in his previous life, his strength was not too strong. At most, he was only at the level of a first-tribulation semi-saint. This kind of power would be a devastating blow to an ordinary Immortal Emperor, but it posed little threat to Shen Changqing. The combined power of the Innate Emperor Weapon and the Immortal Execution Sword Scripture shattered the blood-robed monk’s body in moments, leaving him with virtually no chance to resist. ”Roar!!!” The blood-robed monk roared, attempting to unleash his full power, but the moment the crimson sword light pierced the blood river and entered his brow, all his power vanished instantly. The blood-robed monk froze, his previously ferocious expression hardening, before collapsing to the ground, lifeless. Before the beast’s body could even fall, Shen Changqing summoned the Eight Trigrams Purple Sun Furnace, directly absorbing the corpse into the alchemy furnace, and then placed the furnace into the Seven Profound Divine Tower to suppress it. Shen Changqing did this for the sake of the Thousand Demon Domain. The calamity power contained within a semi-saint beast is terrifying. Even if the beast perishes, the power remaining in its corpse is a source of contamination for ordinary cultivators. To put it bluntly.
The corpse of a demonic beast of this level, if thrown into an ordinary immortal realm, would be enough to become a source of demonic calamity, stirring up new chaos within the immortal realm.
Even with Shen Changqing’s current strength, truly destroying the corpse of a half-saint demonic beast wouldn’t be something he could do in a few moves.
Therefore,
he used the Eight Trigrams Purple Sun Furnace to collect the demonic beast’s corpse, and then suppressed it with the Seven Profound Divine Tower.
With these two in place, let alone a half-saint demonic beast, even the corpse of a saint-level demonic beast would be difficult for the opponent to recover from.
Once the matters of the Thousand Demon Realm were settled, he could deal with these problems later.
But—
just as Shen Changqing was killing the blood-robed monk, an even more terrifying aura suddenly appeared, causing the entire Thousand Demon Realm to tremble.
Then, a Taoist priest wearing tattered robes, with half of his body rotting away, appeared in the sky.
A monstrous aura of demonic calamity and pollution raged out like a flood bursting its banks.
In an instant…
The vast Thousand Demon Realm was ravaged by the strange transformations. The moment they saw this Daoist, their consciousness and spiritual platforms were corrupted, becoming filthy and collapsing—
even those who had reached the Immortal Emperor level seemed unable to withstand the power of this calamity.
However,
at that moment
, a sword cry from ancient times resounded, instantly sweeping away all the corrupting power of the calamity.
All the cultivators whose consciousness and spiritual platforms had collapsed and whose bodies were gradually decaying and rotting recovered the moment they heard the sword cry.
The sound of the sword entered their ears!
Cleansing their souls!
At the same time,
Shen Changqing looked at the Daoist and immediately recognized his identity.
“Venerable Dongming!”
This person was none other than an Eight Tribulation Half-Saint from the Taiyi Holy Land.
When the Tai Luo Daojun was born in the Tianxing Domain, many powerful figures came, including Venerable Dongming.
Shen Changqing had secretly watched that battle, so he was naturally familiar with this person.
What Shen Changqing didn’t expect was to meet this person here.
However, most of the Immortal Realm had fallen, and even Saints and Great Saints had become monsters, let alone so-called Half-Saints.
At this moment,
as the Soul-Destroying Sword trembled, Venerable Dongming also looked at Shen Changqing. The former’s powerful blood energy made him instinctively want to devour it.
Almost instantly, Venerable Dongming attacked, killing towards Shen Changqing. In
his previous life, the opponent was an Eighth Tribulation Half-Saint. Now, his physical body had collapsed, and his strength was no longer what it used to be, but it was still at least equivalent to a Sixth Tribulation Half-Saint.
Now, as soon as he made a move, his power was astonishing, completely incomparable to the blood-robed monk in front of him.
Seeing Venerable Dongming make a move, Shen Changqing’s divine sense connected with the Immortal Sword in his sea of consciousness. In the next instant, a blood-colored sword light shot out from between his eyebrows. The power of destroying all paths contained in it made the entire Immortal Realm tremble.
“Boom—!!!”
The crimson sword light was unstoppable, rendering the so-called semi-saint power utterly useless.
In an instant,
all the Daoist power dissipated.
Venerable Dongming’s body froze on the spot, then annihilated inch by inch, vanishing without a trace in the blink of an eye.
At the same time,
the eerie aura that could pollute an entire immortal realm also dissipated.
All the cultivators stared blankly at the scene before them, unable to react for a long time.
Dead!
A semi-saint beast, even more terrifying than the blood-robed monk, had perished so easily on the spot.
Many people tried to recall the crimson sword light they had just seen, but found that they hadn’t seen it clearly at all.
The crimson sword light appeared suddenly.
The semi-saint beast was instantly killed and its Dao vanished without a trace.
How could such a method not be terrifying?
Even Mingxi and the others couldn’t help but gasp, horrified by such an earth-shattering and awe-inspiring method.
In the void.
Shen Changqing stood motionless, a massive amount of immortal energy flowing back with each breath, allowing him to recover some of his depleted immortal power.
This was the first time he had truly unleashed the full power of the Soul-Destroying Sword.
Fortunately,
the result was gratifying.
The Venerable Dongming, whose strength was comparable to a Sixth Tribulation Half-Saint, perished on the spot in a single exchange. (End of Chapter)
