C.3445: The Four Divine Swords

Anatta, the Ice Goddess, Overarching Heaven, and Bloodtear all left the world membrane, becoming embroiled with the experts of the Immortals’ World and Demons’ World very soon.

They all had a clear job to do. The Wind Venerable would continue to trap Daowei Fatian and maintain the formation, slowly refining him using the formation’s power.

As for the four others, they were responsible for fending off the reinforcements from the two worlds.

Immediately, an intense battle erupted in the chaotic sea. The battle this time was clearly even more fierce than the last.

As Daowei Fatian was trapped, the sovereigns of the Immortals’ World and Demons’ World had clearly lost their patience, afraid that he would actually perish. If that happened, the Book of the Populace would end up in the hands of the Saints’ World.

As a result, the experts from the two worlds used their full strength right from the beginning. They basically did not hold back at all.

However, the sovereigns from the two worlds did not possess an advantage in terms of numbers. They were all stopped by the sovereigns of the Saints’ World, such that they struggled to approach the world membrane despite their efforts.

At this moment, an extremely powerful sword intent erupted in the chaotic sea. Four divine swords hovered in the air. Each one was thirty thousand metres in length, radiating with blinding light.

They were the four divine swords of the Nirvanic Immortal Exalt. Each sword contained a different power of ways, so the four swords each possessed different powers.

In the next moment, the four divine swords wove together and instantly established a powerful sword formation, enveloping the Anatta Grand Exalt who was currently facing the Samsaric Immortal Exalt.

Immediately, the Anatta Grand Exalt vanished. The sword formation created by the four divine swords formed a world of its own. Surging light filled with killing intent emerged as devastating presences flooded the surroundings.

The presence was so powerful that even the Overarching Heaven Grand Exalt and the Bloodtear Grand Exalt felt chills. They felt deeply threatened.

“Four divine swords, I’ll leave Anatta to you. Do everything to keep her trapped.” The Samsaric Immortal Exalt broke free from the battle. He immediately appeared before the world membrane that the Wind Venerable had turned into. Behind him, the wheel of samsara spun rapidly, releasing a startling pressure.

Boom!

In the next moment, the wheel of samsara produced a pitch-black light of destruction, slamming into the world membrane with enough force to destroy worlds. It produced a deafening rumble.

The world membrane shook violently from the attack. Daowei Fatian who was trapped inside sensed something as well. He began to burn his essence blood furiously, powering the Book of the Populace without any consideration to put up a fierce struggle.

Immediately, the Grand Exalt’s formation that trapped Daowei Fatian lost its stability, wavering violently under the force from the Book of the Populace.

But shortly afterwards, the Wind Venerable took action. He channelled his energy into the formation, stabilising it.

The Samsaric Immortal Exalt attacked the world membrane with his full strength, distorting the world membrane from his attacks. However, even when he and Daowei Fatian worked together, attacking the world membrane from both inside and out, they still struggled to rip open a gash in the world membrane immediately.

The defences of the world membrane were far too powerful. It was completely sufficient to endure the powers of Daowei Fatian and the Samsaric Immortal Exalt.

At this moment, sword Qi scattered everywhere with a great rumble. The four divine swords had already been knocked far away by a great force.

“If the Nirvanic Immortal Exalt were still around, perhaps I’d actually be injured by you, but unfortunately, your master is gone. Even with a supreme sword formation, there’s nothing you can do to me with just four sword spirits,” said the Anatta Grand Exalt. She had already rushed out of the sword formation. Three laws wrapped around her, erupting with a terrifyingly tremendous presence.

She ignored the four divine swords. Instead, she extended a finger. With that, the Laws of Creation, Destruction, and Fire manifested before turning into a light of destruction that shot towards the Samsaric Immortal Exalt.

Boom!

With a great rumble, the Samsaric Immortal Exalt was forced backwards. The wheel of samsara behind him shook.

He did not possess any advantages when he faced the Anatta Grand Exalt who used three laws with his strength of two laws.

The four divine swords that had been knocked away by Anatta flew over again. They merged together, turning into a colossal sword that thrust towards the world membrane with blinding light.

The Anatta Grand Exalt immediately appeared before the world membrane. She tossed out a golden tower that blocked the attacks of the four divine swords.

At the same time, the Wind Venerable rapidly flew away, leaving the battlefield.

On the other side, the Overarching Heavens Grand Exalt and Bloodtear Grand Exalt were also locked in battle with the two sovereigns of the Demons’ World. Even though the Hell Demon Exalt was injured, he still managed to evenly match the Overarching Heavens Grand Exalt with his tremendous foundation as a more established Grand Exalt.

As for the last battlefield, the Ice Goddess completely overwhelmed the Grand Exalt of the Ancient and Profound. Among the Grand Exalts of the Saints’ World, the Ice Goddess ranked just behind the Anatta Grand Exalt and the Space-Time Elder. Even though she had yet to return to her peak form, she was quite close to a full recovery, so the battle prowess she possessed still could not be underestimated.

The Grand Exalt of the Ancient and Profound retreated as he fought. He was already covered in a thin layer of ice crystals. The thin layer of frost could not be melted by anything and seemed indestructible. The extreme coldness it gave off seemed to freeze everything in the surroundings.

The Grand Exalt of the Ancient and Profound was completely incapable of breaking through the layer of ice. Even when he used the laws he had comprehended to the limit and his tremendous energy, he could only slow the rate at which it formed.

And as the ice crystals on him gradually increased, the coldness infiltrated his body like it was trying to freeze all signs of life in him. It made his blood flow slower while the circulation of his energy turned slightly sluggish.

However, despite his disadvantage, the Grand Exalt of the Ancient and Profound did not panic at all. His face was solemn and extremely composed.

Suddenly, something changed with the Grand Exalt of the Ancient and Profound’s body. A blinding ball of golden light appeared. He seemed to turn into a sharp sword, shooting towards the Ice Goddess like he was unstoppable. Wherever he passed, the chaos Qi surged violently.

The blinding golden light was the laws he had comprehended, the Laws of Metal among the five elements!

The Ice Goddess was unfazed. She only swung her hand gently before her and a series of ice walls appeared from thin air.

Boom! Boom! Boom!

With the rumbles, the golden sword that the Grand Exalt of the Ancient and Profound had turned into tore through the ice walls like a hot knife through butter, smashing them apart. The entire space exploded as coldness filled the surroundings.

However, when the Grand Exalt of the Ancient and Profound arrived before the Ice Goddess, she had already planted a slender finger on him.

In the next moment, the Laws of Ice and the Laws of Snow in the finger suddenly erupted. The power of the two laws demonstrated completely their terrifying destructive power.

The Ice Goddess’s finger was so powerful that no sovereign who had only comprehended one law could fend it off.

The Grand Exalt of the Ancient and Profound’s Laws of Metal collapsed, having been shattered by her finger. He opened his mouth and spat out blood, flying backwards in a miserable state. The ice crystals on him slowly thickened as if he was about to be sealed in ice.

“My strength isn’t at my peak condition, but it is more than enough to deal with you,” said the Ice Goddess. She was cold and proud. A path of ice was paved in the chaos with the Laws of Ice. She tread on it and approached the Grand Exalt of the Ancient and Profound. Every step she took would make the path of ice extend into the empty space.
