2233 36 Sabers!
Nine Heavens.
Immortal Tai Hua sped the entire way with Su Zimo right behind him. The distance between them did not shorten at all.
However, Su Zimo relied on the burst of his physique and the distance he crossed with each step was huge. Even Immortal Tai Hua could not shake him off.
If time allowed, Su Zimo could naturally continue chasing like this.
With the physique and powerful lifeforce of the Green Lotus True Body, he could exhaust Immortal Tai Hua to death!
However, this was the Nine Heavens.
Once a hundred Earth Immortals left their names on the Earth Ranking stele, all the Earth Immortals would be forcefully shifted out.
If he wanted to kill Immortal Tai Hua, he had to do it before the elimination round was over!
Su Zimo glared at Immortal Tai Hua's back view with a cold expression. Suddenly, he channeled his spirit consciousness and a gray fog shrouded his hands, forming a gray saber!
Swoosh!
The saber tore through the air and slashed in the direction of Immortal Tai Hua!
The greater divine power, Time Is Like a Saber!
Su Zimo's Essence Spirit and Essence Qi had recovered to their peak after releasing Everlasting Vitality. However, he had just released many of his methods and could not use them for the time being.
He did not have many trump cards left and the only thing that could threaten Immortal Tai Hua was the power of time!
"Fufu."
Sensing the energy fluctuation behind him, Immortal Tai Hua chuckled with a mocking expression.
A single greater divine power was not a threat to him.
Just as the gray saber was about to slash him, Immortal Tai Hua suddenly sidestepped and avoided the Time Saber by a hair's breadth!
However, the Time Saber chased after Immortal Tai Hua like a leech!
Who could dodge the power of time?
Even if one cultivated to the Immortal King realm and became an Immortal Emperor that looked down on the world and reigned through history, they would not be able to avoid the passage of time and would not be able to live forever—that was an untouchable level!
Although Immortal Tai Hua dodged repeatedly, the Time Saber followed him like a shadow!
"Hmph!"
Immortal Tai Hua sneered, "It's just a greater divine power. It's nothing much!"
Although he said that, he did not dare to be careless.
Indeed, he sensed a hint of danger from the gray saber!
As Immortal Tai Hua sped forward, he drew a rune with the Essence Qi on his fingertip and imprinted it towards the Time Saber behind him.
Bang!
When the Time Saber struck the rune, it dissipated and gray fog splattered everywhere, filling the air.
A strand of Immortal Tai Hua's long hair was accidentally tainted by the gray fog and his initially black hair turned gray instantly!
"Mmm?"
When Immortal Tai Hua caught sight of that from the corner of his eye, he was shocked and his expression changed!
The power of time?
The power of time was the most mysterious and difficult to come into contact with, cultivate and comprehend!
Even before his reincarnation, he had not mastered the power of time.
In the square.
The experts were secretly alarmed as well and looked in the direction of Heaven and Earth Academy instinctively!
"When did Heaven and Earth Academy possess such a time divine power?"
Heaven Abyss of Mountain Sea Immortal Sect frowned.
The expressions of many cultivators from the major immortal Dao clan, Pang Clan, of Divine Firmament Mainland changed as well as they recalled something that happened not long ago.
Right before the 10,000 Year Meet, they had just received news that the paragon of their race, Pang Yu, was killed in Heaven and Earth Academy and died on the spot!
Pang Yu was a paragon groomed by the Pang Clan and highly valued. The fact that he was able to join Heaven and Earth Academy and gain a spot in the inner sect was proof of his potential.
To think that he would die in Heaven and Earth Academy!
This matter caused a huge stir in the Pang Clan!
Pang Yu had died in a strange manner—he was struck by the power of time and his lifespan was depleted!
However, according to the information they knew, the person who killed Pang Yu was a Heaven Immortal of Heaven and Earth Academy.
The power of time released was also far stronger than what Su Zimo had displayed!
When Heaven Immortal White Sea saw that Immortal Tai Hua was fine, he heaved a sigh of relief and sneered, "You want to kill the reincarnated immortal of Flying Immortal Sect with a single greater divine power? What a joke!"
The moment he said that, Su Zimo attacked once more!
The gray fog in Su Zimo's hands surged and changed continuously, forming a second gray saber. With a whoosh, it tore through the air and slashed towards Immortal Tai Hua!
"This…"
"What happened?"
"That lad released the same divine power consecutively?"
The crowd exclaimed.
Even the many Heaven Immortal experts present were shocked and disbelief filled their eyes.
Swoosh!
Immediately after, another Time Saber was conjured and slashed towards Immortal Tai Hua!
"Look, there's a third gray saber!"
"Fourth!"
"Fifth!"
"…"
Many cultivators were shocked and looked at everything in the Nine Heavens in disbelief.
The greater divine power, Time Is Like a Saber, was actually transformed from Barren.
The power of the Time Saber came from the gray fog between Su Zimo's palms.
As long as the gray fog and his Essence Spirit were sufficient, he could release the Time Saber continuously!
Although such methods seemed terrifying, they would become extremely useless at the Heaven Immortal realm.
That was because no matter how many Time Sabers he released, they could not defeat a single supreme divine power.
However, in a fight between Earth Immortals, this continuous Time Saber posed a huge threat to any Earth Immortal!
Time was like a saber and every single slash aged one!
Immortal Tai Hua did not dare to underestimate every single slash!
If he wanted to defend, he could only release divine powers and secret skills continuously to defend against the Time Sabers!
With that, the fight between both parties had silently undergone a change!
Both of them were peerless monster incarnates among Earth Immortals. However, there were no techniques to speak of in this exchange and it turned into a battle of attrition of Essence Spirit and Essence Qi!
Whoever's Essence Spirit could not withstand it first would die!
Whoever exhausted their Essence Qi first would die!
"Sigh."
Suddenly, Perfected Immortal Xie Ling sighed with a conflicted expression. He looked at the green-robed cultivator in the Nine Heavens and murmured, "That lad is way too terrifying!"
By terrifying, Xie Ling was not only referring to Su Zimo's trump cards.
More than that, it was because of Su Zimo's control and judgment of the situation!
It was as everyone had thought—if Immortal Tai Hua chose to avoid the battle and escape wholeheartedly, Su Zimo would not be able to hold Immortal Tai Hua back, let alone kill him.
But now, Immortal Tai Hua had to fight!
Not only that, the battle had turned into a war of attrition!
There were no techniques or melee combat or long-range attacks. There were only the roughest and simplest clashes that consumed energy continuously!
If Immortal Tai Hua could not hold on first and his Essence Qi was depleted along with the power of his Essence Spirit, he would truly not have a chance to escape.
This might be the only chance to hold back Immortal Tai Hua.
Initially, there was no such opportunity. Su Zimo was the one who forcefully created it and forced Immortal Tai Hua into a corner!
Despite the fact that he was a reincarnated Perfected Immortal, he encountered such a ruthless person the moment he came out of seclusion after cultivating and was led by the nose the entire time.
Many Heaven Immortal experts lamented when they saw that.
When Immortal Tai Hua sensed the gray sabers flying behind him, his expression changed as well!
He did not dare to stop and could only channel his Essence Spirit wildly, releasing many divine powers and secret skills to defend against the power of the Time Sabers!
"Great Ripping Technique!"
"Coiling Slash!"
"Armor Bursting Seal!"
"Great Sun Saber!"
"…"
In an extremely short period of time, Su Zimo released 36 Time Sabers!
Immortal Tai Hua's long hair danced and his eyes shone brightly. He channeled his Essence Spirit to its limits as well and released 36 different divine powers and secret skills!
Instantly, divine powers clashed and shook the world, causing the weather to change!
