Chapter 3324: A Battle Between Rulers
With eight ancestral imprints, the Blood Slaughter Ruler’s strength immediately reached an unprecedented peak. He arrived before the Heaven Fighting Ruler in a flash and directly slashed out with his sword.
A resplendent streak of light shot through the air; the Blood Slaughter Ruler’s sword immediately slashed through the Heaven Fighting Ruler’s energy barrier before piercing his god artifact armour like a hot knife through butter.
Faced with the sword, all of the Heaven Fighting Ruler’s defences seemed useless, unable to protect him at all.
In the end, the Blood Slaughter Ruler’s sword directly landed on the Heaven Fighting Ruler’s body, leaving behind a horrific wound that almost pierced his entire body.
The Heaven Fighting Ruler was shocked. When they both possessed five ancestral imprints, he could still fend off the Blood Slaughter Ruler for a while. His cultivation as a First Heavenly Layer Chaotic Prime was slightly below the Blood Slaughter Ruler’s, but the difference was not too large.
But now that the Blood Slaughter Ruler had gained three ancestral imprints, the difference in their battle prowess immediately became as large as a chasm.
The Heaven Fighting Ruler immediately retreated in a hurry. The five ancestral imprints shone with blinding light. They seemed to establish some kind of connection with the sovereign god artifact in the sky, drawing in its power to life to heal his injuries.
But at this moment, the Blood Slaughter Ruler struck again. The sword in his hand erupted with light as it thrust towards the Heaven Fighting Ruler like a bolt of lightning.
The Heaven Fighting Ruler had yet to recover from his injuries, so he had lost the ability to dodge this attack. He could only raise his sword and thrust it forwards as hard as he could as well.
The tips of the two swords collided, producing a startling explosion.
The attack had almost knocked the sword from the Heaven Fighting Ruler’s hand, while the Blood Slaughter Ruler’s sword continued onwards to penetrate the Heaven Fighting Ruler’s chest.
As the sword passed through the Heaven Fighting Ruler’s body, the power in the sword immediately annihilated the Heaven Fighting Ruler’s organs, making him spurt up blood.
It was not even possible to tell whether he coughed up blood or pieces of his organs anymore.
The Heaven Fighting Ruler immediately paled. His face was filled with fear.
In that short instant, he had suffered such heavy injuries that even his five ancestral imprints could not keep up.
Once the rate of recovery fell behind the rate of injury, only death awaited him.
The Blood Slaughter Ruler was already capable of killing the Heaven Fighting Ruler with his eight ancestral imprints.
The Blood Slaughter Ruler clearly had no plans on letting the Heaven Fighting Ruler go. Killing intent rose up in his eyes. He continued to chase after the Heaven Fighting Ruler with the sword in his hand without holding back at all.
There had never been any friendship between the three rulers. There had only ever been their interests. As a matter of fact, in the time before the Peace region had been established, when their territories bordered one another, there was frequent bloodshed. The three of them often clashed too.
Theft is never good, try looking at .me.
However, none of them could kill one another, so they were stuck in a three-way confrontation, each holding back one another. As such, uncontrollable conflict had never occurred.
As for their efforts in killing the Demonic Dragon Ruler earlier, that was only temporary cooperation as their interests aligned. It was equivalent to a temporary alliance.
Now that the Demonic Dragon Ruler was dead, their alliance obviously ceased to exist. They had returned to how they once were.
“Help me, Jade Heaven!” The Heaven Fighting Ruler flew back rapidly. Anxiety flashed through his eyes. “I’m aware that you both wish to see me dead, as once I’m dead, my Grand Heaven Domain belongs to the two of you. However, you need to be aware of Blood Slaughter’s strength, Jade Heaven!”
“You must have noticed Blood Slaughter’s current strength as well. Without me, you’re not Blood Slaughter’s opponent either.” The Heaven Fighting Ruler had clearly begun to panic. Among the three rulers of the Wood Spirits World, he was the weakest.
The Jade Heaven Ruler said nothing. Her beautiful face was also frosty, filled with grimness.
In the next moment, she directly used a God Tier Battle Skill. Accompanied by a pressure from the world, a colossal strand of sword Qi took shape over her head before shooting towards the Blood Slaughter Ruler with enough force to crush space.
The Jade Heaven Ruler’s God Tier Battle Skill directly locked onto the Blood Slaughter Ruler’s presence, such that it was undodgeable and unavoidable. He was forced to receive it.
The Blood Slaughter Ruler finally became a little stern. The Jade Heaven Ruler was a Second Heavenly Layer Chaotic Prime unlike the Heaven Fighting Ruler. Faced with this God Tier Battle Skill, he did not dare to be careless even with his eight ancestral imprints.
With a bellow, his presence skyrocketed as the sword in his hand exploded with light. With the power of the eight ancestral imprints, he slashed down with his full strength.
Boom!
The Blood Slaughter Ruler retreated rapidly mid-air. His body was covered with various sword slashes that basically covered every inch of his skin. He was completely bloodied, left in a very miserable state.
But very quickly, his injuries closed up at a visible rate.
With the eight ancestral imprints, his injuries also regenerated much faster than the Jade Heaven Ruler who possessed five ancestral imprints.
With that, the Jade Heaven Ruler’s God Tier Battle Skill dispersed from running out of energy.
The Jade Heaven Ruler frowned heavily at this sight. This God Tier Battle Skill was already the greatest attack she knew, yet it only caused some scratches to the Blood Slaughter Ruler.
After gaining three more ancestral imprints, the Blood Slaughter Ruler’s strength had increased so much that it even surpassed her expectations.
“Hahahaha, is this it, Jade Heaven?” The Blood Slaughter Ruler laughed aloud. He produced a dazzling streak of light in the air with his sword, slashing towards the Jade Heaven Ruler and forcing her into a retreat.
“The Peace region is mine. If the two of you have some sense in you, back down immediately, or I won’t be showing any mercy,” the Blood Slaughter Ruler said coldly before abandoning the battle with the Jade Heaven Ruler and the Heaven Fighting Ruler. He turned to hunt down the Infinite Primes of the Grand Heaven Domain and the Jade Centre Domain. “Only death awaits you if you don’t leave the Peace region!”
The Heaven Fighting Ruler and the Jade Heaven Ruler obviously would not simply stand by and watch as the Blood Slaughter Ruler massacred their subordinates. The two of them immediately worked together to keep the Blood Slaughter Ruler busy, engaging in an intense clash mid-air.
It had to be mentioned that the Blood Slaughter Ruler truly was very powerful, especially after using the eight ancestral imprints. He had already changed the disadvantageous situation from before, and he had even gained the upper hand when facing both the Jade Heaven Ruler and the Heaven Fighting Ruler together.
The three rulers moved swiftly through the air. Wherever they went, energy surged through the land and booms rang out thunderously. The land underneath was peppered with holes from the resulting energy of these attacks.
They shot over city after city, but without any exceptions, all of the cities faced tremendous calamities. The defensive formations of the cities were unable to stop the shockwaves of their attacks, immediately smashed apart by the energy that leaked out, which would reduce the entire city to a mess.
Many weaker Wood Spirits directly perished under the resulting energy from their clashes.
