Legend of Swordsman - Chapter 5977: Descending to Qianshui City
Upon hearing this, Dongsheng clenched his fist and felt the surge of his divine power, confidently declaring, “Invincible!”
“Haha…”
They all had great confidence in their own strength, even feeling almost like saviors.
Little did they know, a fierce battle awaited them very soon.
As Dongsheng and Wanyan, accompanied by the mysterious woman, stepped into Qianshui City, a formidable Seventh Tribulation realm expert and dozens of Sixth Tribulation Universe Masters descended upon the city right behind them.
“How’s the news about Zhe San?” the lead Seventh Tribulation realm expert asked coldly.
A Sixth Tribulation Universe Master behind him quickly reported with a cupped fist, “The trio from Tianzi No.2 are hiding in Shuilong Alley, scheduled to meet Zhe San in three days!”
“Good! We’ll wait another three days and strike as soon as they leave Qianshui City!”
The Seventh Tribulation realm expert under the black robe had a bloodthirsty gleam in his eyes.
In this pursuit of Dongsheng and Wanyan, he was the strongest force.
As a celestial-tier assassin of the Blood Demon Temple, when he was a Universe Master, he had slain peers of his own level.
Even though he had now become a Scattered Tribulation, he still maintained the peak strength of the Seventh Tribulation.
His divine power reached a staggering 2 million.
By the standards of the Blood Demon Temple, Scattered Tribulations could retire, but the emergence of the God of Life forced him back into action, to earn Life force to sustain himself, awaiting the secret method of resurrection.
And he wasn’t alone.
Apart from Scattered Tribulation experts who were fortunate enough to obtain Life force from Danbao or Jian Wushuang, Scattered Tribulation experts from other times and spaces were desperately scavenging for Life force.
There was no other choice.
The path to resurrection might take who knows how long to create.
For now, all those Scattered Tribulations could do was to maintain their vitality.
Universe Masters also had their own pressures.
Without assurance, they wouldn’t undergo Tribulation, suppressing their own realms until they had no choice but to face it.
Before Tribulation, they would also prepare Life force in advance for unexpected needs.
Life force was already precious, and now its price had soared.
Those Scattered Tribulations who had bought a large amount of Life force from Jian Wushuang initially found that selling just a fraction of it could recoup their initial expenditure in treasures.
They gained 90 percent of Life force for nothing.
Yet, even so, no one dared to do it.
Now, Life force had reached its peak.
But it was also transient.
Once the path to resurrection was created, Life force would plummet.
Though it wouldn’t become worthless, it wouldn’t command the current astronomical prices, where even Eighth Tribulation experts would hesitate.
Moreover, it was hard to come by even if one had the money.
But even so, there were few who dared to attract Jian Wushuang’s attention.
Of course, there were also some Eighth Tribulation experts on the brink of death, already driven to madness.
They wanted to find Jian Wushuang.
Yet, these Eighth Tribulation experts had nearly depleted divine power, making them no match for Jian Wushuang even if they found him.
But there was no better alternative.
They were the most desperate.
Such was life.
Danbao was also striving to create the path to resurrection, but it would take a long time.
This was an unavoidable fact.
For Realm King, having the God of Life was sufficient.
Creating the power of Resurrection was only a matter of time.
Now, the deaths of some were inconsequential.
Throughout history, countless peerless geniuses of the Eighth Tribulation had perished, their number unknown.
Outside the Qianshui Star Field.
A silver-gold pyramid spun into the silent void.
“They’re quite the runners, managing to get this far!” Wu Zuo couldn’t help but marvel.
Two Universe Masters at the Sixth Tribulation, being chased, yet able to escape from the core of the Tian Cang Eternal Realm to Qianshui Planet, and at such a swift pace.
It was indeed miraculous.
After all, unlike Jian Wushuang, they didn’t have a golden pyramid left behind by the metallic brain.
Relying solely on flight, it would probably take several epochs.
And being pursued, it would take even longer.
“In a quarter of an hour, when they reach Qianshui Planet, we’ll be able to see them!”
Jian Wushuang’s Thought power moved, and the pyramid pierced through space into the
Qianshui Star Field.
If it weren’t for wanting to be discreet, he could have instantly arrived in front of Dongsheng
and Wanyan.
Qianshui Star Field, to the south of the Tian Cang Eternal Realm.
When they entered the Tian Cang Eternal Realm, they just forced their way in, paying no
attention to the path.
So, when they reached the eastern edge of the Tian Cang Eternal Realm, they found Dongsheng and Wanyan through causality, and it only took them three days to cross over half
of the Tian Cang Eternal Realm.
This speed, probably only that ancient existence in the Tian Cang Eternal Realm could
achieve.
“Hmm?” Wu Zuo’s eyebrows twitched at this moment, revealing a smirk. “Looks like they’ve run into trouble; it’s going to be hard for them to hold out for a quarter of an hour!”
Jian Wushuang also used Thought power to explore Qianshui Planet.
Only then did he realize that Dongsheng and Wanyan were currently being besieged by a
group of strong opponents.
The battle was exceptionally fierce.
He and Wu Zuo, on the other hand, used the pyramid’s projection to recline in chairs,
watching Dongsheng and Wanyan being besieged.
Occasionally, they commented on the two’s strength.
If Dongsheng and Wanyan saw this, they would surely be infuriated.
“Not bad, the basic divine power of both of them is around 1 million, and their bursts of power can rival typical Seventh Tribulation Realm experts. It seems that Realm King has given them quite the opportunity!” Jian Wushuang was quite satisfied with this.
Getting stronger together was much better than being strong alone.
Wu Zuo took a sip of tea, calmly saying, “If it weren’t for that woman beside them, they
should’ve been able to escape!”
In the projection, Dongsheng and Wanyan fought separately.
Dongsheng resisted a black-robed Seventh Tribulation expert.
Wanyan blocked more than a dozen opponents of the same level. Unfortunately, both of them were cautious and couldn’t go all out, already sustaining
significant injuries.
After watching for a while, Jian Wushuang felt that the projection was too dull.
With a thought, he instantly activated the pyramid’s power to its peak, and in an instant, as if teleporting, arrived above Qianshui Planet.
“Don’t just lie around, let’s go help!” Jian Wushuang slapped Wu Zuo, signaling to go down
and lend a hand.
Wu Zuo stretched his wrist, sighing, “It’s a pity we’re too weak; otherwise, we could’ve had a
good fight!”
Indeed, against that celestial-rank assassin from the Blood Demon Temple… The assassin’s
strength was somewhat lacking.
Only 2 million.
Under normal circumstances, Wu Zuo could easily beat them.
There would be no difficulty at all.
The two stood on the platform of the pyramid, slowly descending from it.
At this moment.
They hadn’t felt the temporal storm brought about by the pyramid’s teleportation while inside it, but after coming out, they keenly felt the violent temporal power.
It had destroyed most of Qianshui City.
This was why Jian Wushuang had chosen to come quietly. Unfortunately, Dongsheng and Wanyan couldn’t hold on any longer.
If they didn’t arrive soon, the two would lose their lives.
Jian Wushuang couldn’t care less about the consequences; he could only unleash the peak
power of the pyramid and teleport to this place.
