Chapter 1868 Threat On All Sides
Chapter 1868 Threat On All Sides
The incoming attack made alarm bells ring in Lin Mu's mind at that moment. The hair on his entire body stood up and an immense dread filled him.
"The man has gone insane. I need to dodge this!" Lin Mu was fully ready to use his Spatial Skills now.
Even if he couldn't move his body due to the power of the illusory scepter, Lin Mu felt like his ring's skill were still active. He could either use Blink to move away, use Phase to sink own or simply use Fade to move to the other dimension.
Of course, with Blink there was a chance he could get caught up in the wide impact while Phase might still end up getting him injured, as the ground was bound to collapse.
'Seems like Fade it is.' Lin Mu picked
But just as he was about to use it, a figure appeared in the sky.
"Stop this!" High Elder Juxue jumped in and retaliated. "Sky Rake Claw!" the man shouted.
Raising his hand, he clawed towards the incoming scepter and a giant illusory claw made from wind immortal Qi also formed.
~CLANG~
High Elder Juxue's Wind claw collided against the illusory scepter and made it pause.
~KACHA~
Unfortunately, just a second later the Sky Rake Claw showed signs of breaking and fragmented.
'Even I won't be able to mount a defense against the Imperial Might Talisman at such a short notice.' High Elder Juxue knew.
The Imperial Might Talisman was something only the Emperors of the Dao Wind Empire knew how to make. It was a skill that was passed down as inheritance and was meant as a means of protection of one's offspring.
The Imperial Might Talisman was rather straightforward.
A single such talisman would contain a full powered attack from the Emperor. And since the Feng Dao Emperor was a Transcendent Immortal, it also meant that the attack was equally as strong.
The Imperial Might Talisman was not easy to make though and the Feng Dao Emperor could only make one such talisman every couple of years. Each of his children had one such Talisman which was meant to be their final gambit.
With the power of a Transcendent Immortal, there was little they wouldn't be able to oppose. It was an important piece of defense that the princes and princesses carried since it kept them safe from other Transcendent powers that might want to kill them or kidnap them.
Doing that would be very difficult with this, as they could use this as a one hit kill attack for 99.99% of experts here.
Of course, the activation of the Talisman also alerted the Emperor and would cause him to rush over.
Though it was yet to be known how he would take this. Due to the current events, the man was busy and would still take a few minutes to reach the Tournament Grounds.
It made sense as to why even High Elder Juxue who was one of the top experts of the Temple of the Four Guardian beasts would find it difficult to block it. He might be able to delay it, but even that needed preparation which the old man had no luxury to do so.
Feng Baxing had used it sneakily and had directly overwhelmed the arrays of the Tournament Grounds. Even the arrays wouldn't be able to take a full powered attack from a Transcendent Immortal after all.
Perhaps the power of the Guardian beasts would stop it, but even that would need some time to react.
"HAAH!" High Elder Juxue struggled against the attack, and gave it his all to halt the attack. "Mu Lin, get away!" he shouted only to realize that the Scepter had probably frozen him in place.
'Dammit! Feng Baxing, you've tainted the Imperial Family by doing this. Forget the temple, the Emperor himself won't let you off.' High Elder Juxue thought.
He could have shouted it out, but the look in Feng Baxing's face showed that the man was far too deep in hate. But after a few more moments, things felt unusual for the old man.
High Elder Juxue even wondered if there was something more wrong with the Third Prince, as he shouldn't have acted like this normally.
'Could it be… No the interference should have been detected by us if that was true…' High Elder Juxue hoped that his thoughts were incorrect.
~SHATTER~
Unfortunately he couldn't think any longer, as the Sky Rake Claw finally shattered.
~WOOSH~
The old man was knocked away from the backlash and tried to gain control. His eyes and immortal sense were locked onto Lin Mu as regret appeared on his face.
'Mu Lin won't be able to survive this—' High Elder thought as he saw the Scepter coming closer and closer.
In all this chaos though, the High Elder as well as literally everyone else had missed a few more things that were happening.
Above the large figure, the clouds had reappeared. The clouds were rapidly moving and had taken on a spiral form. If one looked closely they would realize that the clouds had actually turned into the shape of a massive coiled snake that was two kilometer in size!
For the audience it was hard to spot as the giant figure was blocking the sky. But if they saw it they would be stunned as there weren't just Dao Traces, but Dao Insights present in the clouds!
Still, this was nothing compared to what was happening on the world barrier of the Rust Sky World.
Massive Spatial Disturbances could be felt and tens of Spatial Tears were appearing by the second. The space behind the Spatial Tears was pitch black, but if one looked at it from the right angle, they would see a golden yellow glow shining within it.
All the top experts in the Rust Sky World stood up at that moment and looked up at the deep sky, feeling the Spatial disturbances.
'What in the name of ancestors… the Barrier of the Rust Sky world will break at this rate!' All the Top immortals of the Rust Sky world thought.
