Longevity Martial Arts: I have a Mysterious Water Snake Avatar-Chapter 741 - 497 Azure Lotus, Starfire, Soul Killing
「One month later.」
The major conflict between the Human Race and the Demon Clan erupted once again, like an ignited keg of gunpowder. Under the urging of the East Supreme Saint, the Human Race mobilized its troops, advancing deep into the Endless Sea Area with their weapons pointed directly at the Dragon God Sacred Land. At this moment, they were gathering before the Heavenly Plant Holy Land.
Heaven and earth were dim; neither sun nor moon shone. Whirlpools and tsunamis raged upon the ocean, yet they could not halt the advance of the Human Race's vast ships and the Beast Swarm. Within the wild expanse of the Heavenly Plant Holy Land, fire reached the sky to the east, blizzards raged to the west, yellow sand spread far and wide to the south, and thunder rolled to the north. The firmament in all directions around the Heavenly Plant Holy Land seemed as if it were being torn asunder by terrifying giant hands, shattering it into fragments and instilling indescribable fear into the hearts of all the Demon Clan creatures!
"Give me an Emperor Artifact, and let's see if the Human Race still dares to act so recklessly!" The Dragon God Saint Lord, Han Tiandao, wore a gloomy expression, his gaze icy cold.
The enhancement an Emperor Artifact provided to a Quasi-Emperor was too significant, too overwhelming. Decades ago, to counter the Human Race's Soul Killing Banner, an Emperor Artifact, the Demon Clan had to bring forth their entire arsenal, including the Great Moon Virtual Mirror, the Sky-connecting Tower, and the Dragon God Incense Body. Even then, they only managed a standstill against the Soul Killing Banner.
Now, in the hands of the Azure Lotus Empress Flower Yingying, who was still in her prime, the divine might unleashed by the Emperor Artifact, the Azure Lotus Emperor Sword, was even more terrifying. This was not to mention the presence of the Dragon Sun Emperor's Child and the East Supreme Saint!
The Heavenly Plant Saint Lord sighed. Azure Lotus Emperor, Azure Lotus Heaven Lord... Alas, is this an epochal war between the reincarnations of the Eternal Azure Lotus across different ages?
Facing the Human Race's fierce onslaught, even a Supreme Demon of the Saint Lord level felt their heartstrings taut with tension, let alone Demon Saints like Flame Sparrow Great Saint and Li Jianqiu.
"Die!"
Without many words, Flower Yingying, holding the Azure Lotus Emperor Sword, moved her delicate form into action. A sword traversed the sky, slashing directly towards the grand array guarding the Heavenly Plant Holy Land. Chaos Sword Radiance spilled out, pressing down on the array. This caused the fully activated array of the Heavenly Plant Holy Land to emit mournful wails as it continuously crumbled.
Almost instantly, the universe seemed to dim, and all things appeared on the verge of withering. The creatures of the Demon Clan could barely resist the urge to bow down and worship Flower Yingying. Inside the vast Heavenly Plant Holy Land, every Demon Cultivator felt as if the sky were collapsing and the earth splitting, their hearts filled with panic and dismay. Such terrifying power! Even though the Heaven Planting Large Array had sacrificed all other functions to focus solely on defense, it was still forced to crumble bit by bit.
"Damn it!" The Heavenly Plant Saint Lord's pale face twisted in rage, blue veins bulging.
Then, she decisively summoned the Azure Lotus Minor World, intending to awaken the Azure Lotus Emperor's former subordinates to fight once more for the Demon Clan!
BOOM! BOOM! BOOM!
The world rumbled incessantly as a terrifyingly huge rift spread rapidly. World-ending brilliance splashed out from within, completely dispelling the Chaos Sword Radiance.
"Hm?!" Flower Yingying narrowed her eyes. She sensed a power before her that was similar yet distinct from the essence of the Azure Lotus Emperor Sword. It gave her the sensation of facing her father, the Azure Lotus Heaven Lord. But she knew with certainty that this was definitely not her father's aura.
The Eternal Azure Lotus? Trampling upon the nine cycles of reincarnation to attain eternal life?
"Reincarnation? A laughable lie!" Flower Yingying shouted angrily, voicing her father's understanding of reincarnation.
With a BANG, her overwhelming blood qi blotted out the sky. The Azure Lotus Emperor Sword in her hands seemed to shatter the heavens as an infinite waterfall of Chaos cascaded down, cleaving towards the Azure Lotus Minor World with terrifyingly boundless divine might. This was the Azure Lotus Emperor Sword, a supreme Emperor Artifact designed for attack and offense!
But at this very moment, the Azure Lotus Minor World suddenly erupted with vast azure radiance. A terrifying brilliance surged like an ocean in all directions.
In the void, an immense Azure Lotus, reaching the heavens above and connecting to the Nine Nether below, slowly swayed. It showered endless azure light and divine radiance, its presence stern and its aura immensely terrifying. This vast Azure Lotus spanned the ends of the universe, so enormous that it reached into Chaos above and anchored the Nine Nether below, its height immeasurable, beyond tens of thousands of zhang. Around it, countless azure branches pierced the void, and Chaos Primordial Qi permeated the air. 𝚏𝕣𝐞𝗲𝐰𝕖𝐛𝐧𝕠𝕧𝚎𝚕.𝐜𝚘𝗺
The Eternal Azure Lotus! The supreme Dao body of the Eternal Azure Lotus!
At this moment, the Old Tree Monster, Flower Elf, and Vine Ghost, along with other Wood Tao big shots, revived. They sacrificed their last ounce of power to awaken the remains of the Eternal Azure Lotus, thereby protecting the entire Heavenly Plant Holy Land and staunchly resisting the bone-chilling sword edge. This was just as they had once resisted the Fire Cultivators and protected the Wood Tao practitioners. Now, they reenacted that very scene.
Flower Yingying gazed at the Eternal Azure Lotus before her, her mouth slightly agape. How is this possible?! Did I... did I truly see my father, the Azure Lotus Heaven Lord?!
CLANG!
The remains of the Eternal Azure Lotus seemed to awaken. Its azure branches swayed madly, incessantly lunging towards Flower Yingying and the Human Race Army. Each strike carried the force of exploding star rivers, dazzlingly brilliant. The Royal Tao Marks of the Wood Tao from a million years ago seemed to pierce through time and reemerge.
Because the Azure Lotus Emperor Sword was severely suppressed within the Endless Sea Area, Flower Yingying simply could not withstand this assault. The Human Race was on the brink of catastrophic disaster!
An alternative path to Tao Achievement! Another alternative path to Tao Achievement! No, it's slightly off, but still incredibly close!
Phoenix Creek's Hong Yuan felt this power and trembled. His trembling was different from the fear and dread of those around him; he was not afraid—he was excited. This power was almost indistinguishable from what his Demonic Body had sensed in the Land of Oblivion! Doesn't that mean I might also be able to manipulate these remains of the Eternal Azure Lotus?!
Meanwhile, the Human Race was unaware that the Eternal Azure Lotus could only be utilized once and would not last longer than two hours.
