Shocking the Nine Heavens With My Sword-Chapter 680 - 657: Killing by Borrowing a Situation (1/3)

Chapter 680: Chapter 657: Killing by Borrowing a Situation (1/3)

"Despicable! Too despicable! Three Creation Emperors are ganging up on a Sunshine King, tsk, three shameless old things, I despise you!" Black Donkey cursed while spitting saliva on the side.

Never mind whether they are Creation Emperors or not, just slap the scandalous label on them first.

"Exactly, so shameless. If it were me, Missy here, I would have found a rope and hanged myself long ago!" Bing Xiulan backed him up.

Their strength was limited, far from being able to intervene in such a high-level battle; shouting their support from a safe distance was the only thing they could do.

The Three Great Experts remained silent and cold. Why bother arguing with a few juniors? After all, they were bound to die!

Slap! Slap! Slap!

The other two Creation Realm experts also bled profusely. To pose a threat to Zhou Heng, they had to exert the power of at least a Sunshine Sovereign, which would cause backlash from the restrictions, and how could they not pay a price for it?

This was because they were Creation Realm experts. Otherwise, even Sublimation Emperors wouldn’t be able to shake these restrictions and exert power beyond the Sunshine King!

Zhou Heng felt the pressure, and it was immense!

These were, after all, three Creation Realm experts, who were now all bursting out with the power of a Sunshine Sovereign, combined with high-tier Immortal Techniques. Their battle power was terrifying! Had he not formed a body of the Sunshine King level, he would have likely been shattered by now!

Even so, there were spots of blood on his body. The destructive power of the opponents was just too strong!

Luckily, he had the Minor Healing Rune that, once activated, could heal his injuries immediately. Otherwise, he certainly would have bled nonstop like the three opponents!

The Creation Realm was ultimately the Creation Realm, terrifying even when their power was suppressed!

Zhou Heng was shocked, but little did he know that the three Creation Realm experts were even more tumultuous inside!

How could there be such an aberrant fellow!

If this guy could advance to Creation King, then there would be few in the Creation Sovereigns who could suppress him! And once he became a Creation Emperor, he might very well sweep through the Immortal Realm unbeatable!

"Strange Yuan Palm!"

"Sword of Judgment!"

"Tianhua Treasure Light Technique!"

The Three Great Experts each displayed their peerless techniques, at this point they couldn’t hold back anymore. They either had to unleash their ultimate moves or exert stronger power, and the latter was clearly not a good idea.

Boom!

Radiant light erupted chaotically, tremendous power roiled, making the cave tremble incessantly.

Zhou Heng was forced to retreat, his body full of wounds. He survived these three peerless attacks, but at the price of being covered in injuries. His Minor Healing Rune circulated throughout his body, rapidly closing the wounds visibly. His eyes blazed with increasing battle resolve.

The stronger the opponent, the stronger he became, he was unyielding in a hundred fights!

"...this seems to be the legendary Hundred Ghosts Sword!" the skinny old man suddenly said.

"That ominous sword, whoever obtains it is never well off?"

"Indeed, it seems to be proving true once again; this lad is bound to die today!"

The Three Great Creation Realm experts, with their broad knowledge, quickly recognized the origin of the Hundred Ghosts Sword. A gleam of greed flashed in their eyes, but the Hundred Ghosts Sword had a fierce reputation. Being able to leave its legend from prehistoric times till now was chilling to even think about.

They executed their mysterious techniques again, determined to quickly subdue Zhou Heng. This time, they could not only obtain a precious Heart of Wood but also a possibly Dragon Transformation Nine Slashes-rivalling Immortal Technique. Even the calm and still hearts of theirs began to boil with anticipation.

Zhou Heng remained composed. His left fist moved, stirring up Divine Radiance, while with his right hand, the Hundred Ghosts Sword sent out waves of Spiritual Power Ghost Creatures emitting bone-chilling shrieks that pierced the heart, turning one’s whole body cold!

"Good lad!"

The Three Great Experts snorted in anger, wary of Zhou’s left fist. The golden punch light posed a terrible threat to them, but they had not expected the young man’s sword technique to be so sharp as well.

In this place where Realms were suppressed, even if they had high-tier Immortal Artifacts, how could they be powerful enough to invoke its true might without sufficient Spiritual Power? But the Hundred Ghosts Sword was extremely special, having different powers in different people’s hands and it greatly enhanced Zhou Heng’s battle power!

As Zhou Heng bore the brunt of the attacks, a hundred Ghost Shadows finally formed fully, majestically launching attacks that delved into the heart with haunting cries. Even the three Creation Realm experts opposite felt their hearts quiver.

After all, this was a Creation Realm-level Immortal Artifact!

"Zhou, put in a bit more effort and finish off these three shameless old things!" Black Donkey couldn’t help shouting from afar, "I won’t make a move. Who let me be so strong that the Immortal Realm would collapse if I did?"

"But a few lousy shameless old guys like that are easy for you to handle, especially since you’ve learned one-tenth of my peerless techniques!"

"These three old twigs must be carrying lots of treasures; we can’t miss out!"

When it came to treasures, the Black Donkey’s eyes immediately lit up, and it just couldn’t stop chattering. If it weren’t powerless, it would undoubtedly be the first to charge and wreak havoc.

The Three Great Creation Realm experts were furious. They had never seen such a shameless and thick-skinned Demon Beast, talking in human language but uttering such nonsense!

Zhou Heng laughed heartily, with a shadow move, hundreds of ghosts followed; the golden Divine Radiance ascended, and he was overwhelmingly strong.

The Three Great Experts exchanged glances, exchanging a look with each other.

This couldn’t go on!

The restrictions were like soft knives cutting into them. They might not even need to wait for Zhou Heng to exhaust his power before they succumbed to severe injuries, leaving their Divine Aspects behind in this place!

Raise the power quickly and finish the battle!

The three reached a consensus. None of them could elevate their power to the height of the Sublimation Realm. Otherwise, the backlash from the restrictions would skyrocket, causing them to die instantly; that would really be like losing the rice by trying to steal the chicken!

The power was raised once again, Sunshine Emperor!

Pfft, pfft, pfft!

The three of them now displayed fist-sized holes in their bodies. They had temporarily broken through the restriction’s limits, allowing them to harness the power of the Sunshine Emperor, but the price they paid was immense—this loss of blood was tantamount to the draining of their Divine Aspect powers!

It was as though Zhou Heng, despite already possessing the power of a One Wheel red sun, was watching this sun shrink, diminishing back into a mere speck. It would take thousands, if not tens of thousands of years of arduous cultivation to restore it!

This was a critical point; regardless of how great their power was, they too would be shattered by the force of the restriction! Moreover, they couldn’t sustain this state for long, for if they lost too much blood, they would perish all the same!

Suppression!

The three launched their hands downward in unison, pressing towards Zhou Heng with the intent to crush his flesh and capture his Deities.

Zhou Heng’s figure darted about, executing the Swift Cloud Radiant Step to its limit; he suddenly came up with a good idea.

He made his way toward the Heart of Wood.

The Heart of Wood was unquestionably a treasure, the essence of a tree that had grown to the level of a Creation Emperor; even others of the Creation Emperor level would covet it. But precisely because it was a relic of a Creation Emperor, it bore an immensely terrifying pressure, and even a Creation Sovereign might fail to approach it!

This was what compelled the Three Great Experts to use the Blood Sacrifice Technique to eliminate the pressure emanating from it.

Yet Zhou Heng was charging straight for the Heart of Wood—what did this signify?

Naturally, the Three Great Experts didn’t believe Zhou Heng had a way to claim this treasure; they were concerned that Zhou Heng, cornered and desperate, might use the Heart of Wood to commit suicide!

Under the pressure of a Creation Emperor, both body and spirit would utterly annihilate!

Whether the body was annihilated didn’t concern them, but Zhou Heng still possessed a peerless Immortal Technique—they needed to capture his Divine Soul to force information from him. Therefore, Zhou Heng’s Divine Soul absolutely could not be extinguished before then!

"Stop him!" The three attacked simultaneously, aiming to halt Zhou Heng in his tracks.

But Zhou Heng swung his Hundred Ghosts Sword, bringing forth a surge of a hundred Ghost Shadows, blocking the attacks for him.

Bang! Bang! Bang!

The Ghost Shadows burst, one after another, yet Zhou Heng had already reached the vicinity of the Heart of Wood.

Damn it!

All three of the Great Experts inwardly sighed with regret. Zhou Heng was surely doomed, and thus, there was no way they could learn that Immortal Technique!

This was understandable; major families carried such ancestral teachings—if escape was impossible, then choose death, never reveal the family’s secret techniques to outsiders. This was a cornerstone principle for a family’s foundation!

As Zhou Heng approached, he immediately felt the immense suppressing force bearing down on him, his heart thumping violently, as though it would burst in an instant!

The Black Sword in his Dantian vibrated slightly, and the pressure abruptly vanished.

He reached out his hand and grasped the Heart of Wood!

Whoosh!

Zhou Heng rapidly rebounded, turning to counterattack the three Sublimation Realm Great Experts.

Uh?

The expressions of shock on the three Great Experts’ faces were all beyond belief!

The mere fact that such high-level Cultivators were showing astonishment was in itself shocking! But they could not help their surprise—for not only could Zhou Heng approach the Heart of Wood, he could actually lift it up as well!

Impossible!

They couldn’t bear that pressure, so how could Zhou Heng?

He was just a meager Sunshine King!

Beyond their initial shock, a panicky look immediately spread across their faces.

No matter how Zhou Heng managed to withstand the pressure from the Creation Emperor, just because Zhou Heng could, didn’t mean they could too!

Was this not Zhou holding the Heart of Wood, clearly intending to use its pressure to suppress them?

Detestable!

The three Great Experts inwardly roared in fury, yet their feet deftly shuffled, daring not to confront Zhou Heng’s sharp edge!

Nonsense, whoever touches it, dies!

Zhou Heng burst into laughter, pushing his Swift Cloud Radiant Step to the limit as he pursued the Old Golden-faced Man. Since he couldn’t possibly take on all three Great Experts at once, he might as well pick one randomly first.

F*ck, why the hell is he targeting me?

The Old Golden-faced Man cursed silently, yet he could only mutter these words to himself; uttering them aloud would make him a laughingstock.

Zhou Heng chased, and the Old Golden-faced Man fled, not even possessing the courage to fight!

...Whoever fights is a fool!

"Hahaha, who would have thought? Old sticks can really run. Haven’t you done plenty of dine-and-dashes in your youth, being chased around all over the place?" the Black Donkey started heckling once again. ƒreeωebnovel.ƈom

"Does that mean he’s eaten without paying?" Bing Xiulan asked with a giggling smile.

"Disgraceful, doing such despicable deeds at such an old age!" the Black Donkey spat in disgust, a master of dishonor itself. Seeing Zhou Heng gain the upper hand, it idly spouted all sorts of nonsense.

"Shut up!" The Old Golden-faced Man could no longer restrain himself and yelled at the Black Donkey.

But just then, Zhou Heng had closed in, the Heart of Wood exuding a terrifying pressure. The old man’s body gushed with blood; snap, snap, snap—his Divine Bones self-detached, piercing through his skin, a sight of extreme misery. (To be continued.
