Chapter 723: The Injured Heavenly Emperor
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
Indeed, Xin Tianwen did hold superior strength and did not put the name of the Heavenly Emperor in vain. In a moment, he had arrived before the defense line of the Aspiring Throne Mountain.
Xin Tianwen flapped the Wings of the Heavenly Emperor and swung the Slaughtering Sword with his full force. A burst of judgmental light had slashed down like a bolt of lightning.
As the lights become agitated, the piercing light suddenly erupted and formed giant explosive ripples that undulated in rings.
The strike against the barrier caused it to send out a giant shockwave as it began to crumble.
Rumbling and explosive sounds lingered in one’s ear as it completely destroyed the barrier.
Xin Tianwen raised the Slaughtering Sword and flapped the Wings of the Heavenly Emperor. Emitting a stern divine presence, he shouted, “Qin Xiaotian, today, I will let you know that before the Genuine Divine Six Weapons, the defenses of the Qin Clan have been broken bits!”
After he had finished, Xin Tianwen extended his wings and two weapons extended from his back. It was a giant axe and a giant hammer.
Xin Tianwen gestured with his hands and all of a sudden, bursting mysterious golden words flew out of the center of his palm. These golden lights overlapped one another until they formed a human-shaped sparkling object. It was a figure that imitated Xin Tianwen’s body.
These two golden human figures jumped and grabbed one of the Genuine Divine Six Weapons each. Surging with lights, they flew towards the next barrier.
Xin Tianwen laughed proudly. “Qin Xiaotian, let me see what you can hold on to!”
In the midst of their conversation, those two golden human figures had already waved the Genuine Divine Six Weapons and started to destroy the next barrier.
For the Qin Clan, initially when they saw that the majority of the Heavenly Emperor forces had retreated, they were feeling relieved. When they saw how Heavenly Emperor Xin Tianwen had returned, all were startled.
When they saw his unpredictable techniques, the more they felt shocked.
“Head Chief, what is this skill?” Qin Chongyang was stunned when he watched.
Qin Xiaotian gave a cold sneer. “This is the golden coagulate spirit clone of Xin Tianwen. An elite warrior at the Genuine Supreme Dao Stage possesses the powerful divine soul stage. If they have the secret technique of controlling clones, they can use the divine light to make clones. This clone only needs a touch of divine soul. However, compared to the main body, the combat power of this divine light clone is incomparable.”
Although it could not be compared with Xin Tianwen’s main body, the clone of a Genuine Supreme Dao elite warrior must still be powerful. Plus, with the assistance of the Genuine Divine Six Weapons, it would be hopeful for them to destroy the barriers of the Qin Clan.
Strange lights flashed inside Qin Xiaotian’s eyes. While he was in silence, with another rumbling sound, another barrier was opened by Xin Tianwen.
From beginning to end, three of the Qin Clan’s barriers had been breached. Although these were exterior defenses, it had caused a huge crack in the defensive circle. The depth and the thickness of the defense zone was greatly crippled.
Qin Xiaotian revealed a profound look and all of a sudden, he made up his mind. “Everyone, with the normal protective forces, even the ones at the core area, I am afraid they will only stop Xin Tianwen ten to fifteen days. We must activate the Eight Desolate Six Directions Mountain Protecting Formation. You will oversee here while I go and activate the mountain protection formation.”
After Qin Xiaotian had finished speaking, with a flash, he had vanished like a puff of smoke.
If it were just Xin Tianwen calling out the challenge by himself, certainly Qin Xiaotian would not have gone to activate the Eight Desolate Six Directions Mountain Protecting Formation.
The most terrifying part was that Xin Tianwen had a dozen Supreme Dao elite warriors behind him. If this group of people joined hands to break the formation, their destructive and attack power would even surpass Xin Tianwen’s power.
Once these dozen Supreme Dao elite warriors charged into the Upright Morality Hall together, the Qin Clan would be powerless to resist. The definite disparity in strength made it inevitable for them to fail if they were to fight head on.
Xin Tianwen commanded the divine light clones and plus with his own power, he began to destroy the next defense. Clearly, the more you step inside, the higher the difficulty to break the defenses.
After Xin Tianwen had breached numerous barriers, he also encountered some trouble. In a little while, before the third barrier, Xin Tianwen could not break it.
Yet, clearly the attack power of the Genuine Divine Six Weapons did not have an undeserved reputation. While Xin Tianwen bombarded it, he provoked and jeered, “Qin Xiaotian, doesn’t your Qin Clan always claim to be lofty and unyielding? Now why are you being an ostrich? Could it be you only flaunt your vigorous style? If I do not break this prohibition, I will face the Sacrificial Valley directly, all of your dead ghosts are buried there right? Ha ha, if I raise this land to the ground and expose those remains, it would certainly be very interesting, right?”
Xin Tianwen’s tone was filled with bitter resentment and caused each of the Qin disciples to be flushed with anger and smeared with rage. They only wanted to roll up their sleeves and fight to death with Xin Tianwen.
It would be a small matter when killing the disciples of the Qin. Once the foreign enemies invade the Sacrificial Valley and disturbed the peace of the generations of heroes of the Qin Clan, to them, it could not be compensated for, even with the sacrifice of one’s life a hundred times over!
Inwardly, Qin Wushuang felt apprehensive. Indeed, this figure of the Xin Clan was a ferocious character for he would not act with reason. This malicious opponent was like a wolf or tiger, the most difficult to deal with.
When he looked at Xin Tianwen’s rampant appearance, Qin Wushuang truly wanted to head out and fight with this person. Only, he also knew that only the Head Chief could be matched evenly with the strength of this Xin Tianwen. Even though he had the Graceful Spiritual Bow, he could not match up at that level.
Xin Tianwen charged at the prohibition madly, once, twice…
Finally, a trace of movement appeared from the barrier as a spiritual ripple slowly dispersed. Xin Tianwen was an expert for he knew that an opening had appeared when he saw this happen.
As long as a gap had appeared, the speed to break this prohibition would get faster if he were to increase the strength of attack!
After such a long time of attacking, those two golden clones were more or less exhausted. Their golden light had gradually become somewhat dim.
When Xin Tianwen saw this, he made the hand gestures again to support them with golden lights. Once again, those two golden clones became lively and vigorous, full of energy.
Such golden light had consumed Xin Tianwen’s own divine power. As long as Xin Tianwen had enough divine power to support them, he could allow them to work hard all the time.
The gap had slowly become bigger. Initially, the spiritual Qi dispersed was only the size of a needle. Followed with Xin Tianwen’s continuous attack, the gap of this vaporized spiritual Qi had become bigger, from the width of a finger to a wrist. Up to now, it already exhibited a great gap with the width of a bucket.
Once such gap appeared, it meant this barrier was in imminent danger.
For the Qin party, each were burning with anxiety. They squeezed their fists tightly and their breathing had also become urgent. Revealing pairs of thoroughly red eyes, their faces all showed how anxious they had become.
“It should be soon for the Head Chief to activate the mountain protection formation, right?”
“Two chiefs, how come there is still no news? Should we contact the Head Chief?”
“Yes, we should remind the Head Chief that time does not wait for him.”
“At most, in fifteen minutes Xin Tianwen could break this barrier and close in on the Sacrificial Valley!”
Qin Chongyang shouted, “Do not speak anymore. The Head Chief devised this battle plan in the tent, how could he not know the situation? Since the mountain protection formation has this name and is also the trump card of the Qin Clan, how could it be ordinary? How could it be activated easily? If we inform the Head Chief now, we would only be disturbing his mind. We must not do it.”
Qin Wushuang felt deeply. “Yes, at this moment we must not disturb the Head Chief.”
Just at this moment, Xin Tianwen roared with evil laughter. “Break for me!”
He swung the Slaughtering Sword with his full force and it seemed that his entire body had merged with this sword. With this startled chop, it had directly caused the surrounding barrier to flash like lightning and rumble like thunder. Accompanied with an ongoing explosive sound, the huge explosion and the shock wave formed by the air stream had dispersed in all directions abruptly.
“Boom, boom!”
Another barrier was eliminated!
Xin Tianwen opened the Wings of Heavenly Emperor and went up with roaring laughter. He held the Slaughtering Sword and dashed towards the direction of the Sacrificial Valley with an austere divine expression. At the same time, he roared, “I will pull out those dead bodies from the Sacrificial Valley first! It will be very interesting!”
As he said this, his body had already transformed into a dashing light heading towards the Sacrificial Valley.
Everyone from the Qin Clan were stupefied and revealed an incredible unsightly look. When this Xin Tianwen went to the Sacrificial Valley, the place where generations of the Qin heroes had slept, it would get destroyed by him inevitably.
Once the Sacrificial Valley was destroyed, all the disciples of the Qin Clan would be condemned by history! In the world of martial arts, in a world where one held strong onto the ideology of clansmen, the ancestors and continued tradition meant everything.
If the Sacrificial Valley was destroyed and the generations of the heroic souls of the Qin Clan could not rest in peace, it would definitely be extraordinary shameful and humiliating for the Qin Clan. It could be considered the greatest calamity in their time!
“No, we must go and protect, we must not let that guy destroy the Sacrificial Valley!” Honored Warrior Zhi Song was the first to cry out. “If the heroic souls of the Qin are disturbed, when we die, we would not be able to face our ranks of ancestors in the underworld! I would rather die than sit and watch!”
“Let’s go, let’s fight with our lives! At most, we can self-detonate our primordial spirit and aim to injure him. We must make time for the Head Chief!” Head Chief Zhi Yang also cried out.
At this moment, there came a sudden shriek from Xin Tianwen. Next, there came an angry long hiss. Xin Tianwen was actually retreating at a rapid speed from the direction of the Sacrificial Valley.
On his invincible Heavenly Emperor Wings, a giant scar had appeared on one side! At the direction of the Sacrificial Valley, the sky was full of soaring purple lights, like lightning and flaming tongues.
Xin Tianwen’s long hiss was filled with ruthless energy, “Qin Xiaotian, what method did you use to harm me? Today I will let you go, but tomorrow, I will come to break your mountain gate and slaughter all of you!”
The brutal howl had echoed across the entire Aspiring Throne Mountain.
Each of the Qin clansmen were beaming with joy. Did the mountain protection formation succeed in activating?
Even Qin Wushuang felt a sigh of relief. By watching how that Xin Tianwen departed in a panic, he must have been injured by some strange attack. Or else, the majestic honorable Heavenly Emperor would have never lost self-control like this.
“Xin Tianwen has fled?”
“The Head Chief has succeeded!”
“Yes, the great formation must have been activated, ha ha!”
“Hm? That’s not right, we should take his life while he’s down. This Xin Tianwen is injured, why would the Head Chief not chase after him? This is the best moment to deal with him.”
Qin Chongyang also felt this to be strange. However, he knew that for someone as intelligent as the Head Chief, there must be something he didn’t realize.
He said to Qin Yunran, “Second, I will take a look for the Head Chief.”
Qin Wushuang volunteered. “I will also take a look.”
Both dashed towards the direction of the Head Chief.
