Zaar Caiyun had used the three moves of the Tyrant's Way of the Sword. Every single move was at the peak of Saint Tier Battle Skills, comparable to a casual strike from a Holy Emperor. Even a Great Perfection expert like the Holy Emperor would become heavily injured if he took on the three moves. He would have to use a Heaven Tier Battle Skill to block them.
There were differences in strength between Saint Tier Battle Skills as well. The Tyrant's Way of the Sword contained a total of three moves, and each of the three moves was stronger than the last. As a result, the Tyrant's Way of the Sword had already reached a high level among Saint Tier Battle Skills. Zaar Caiyun was extremely talented. She had already comprehended the mysteries of the Tyrant's Way of the Sword to the limit, and she was able to use it with great proficiency. She was able to perfectly combine her strength as a peak Eighth Heavenly Layer Holy Emperor with the Tyrant's Way of the Sword, unleashing its full potential.
Jian Chen became extremely stern. He had been locked onto by the tremendous pressure from the Saint Tier Battle Skill, making him feel like he was in a swamp. It was extremely difficult for him to move. At the same time, the saint artifact had been knocked away as well. Although it rapidly flew toward him under his control, it was nowhere near as fast as the Saint Tier Battle Skill.
"Looks like I can only use the divine hall of the Eight Wastelands," Jian Chen thought. The divine hall of the Eight Wastelands was damaged, but Zaar Caiyun's Saint Tier Battle Skill was only as powerful as a casual strike from a Holy Emperor. It was nowhere near as powerful as a punch from King. The damaged divine hall of the Eight Wastelands was more than enough to block it.
Just as Jianchen was about to take out the divine hall of the Eight Wastelands, a figure suddenly flashed in front of him. Ruijin had silently appeared before Jianchen. The Sacred Dragon's Sword in his hand radiated with a terrifying might. Strands of origin energy slowly pulsed, giving off a profound aura.
Ruijin's body was like an impenetrable wall in front of Jianchen. As he swung the Sacred Dragon's Sword, an extremely powerful sword Qi shot towards Zaar Caiyun.
The huge sword Qi condensed from the second move of Zaar Caiyun's Way of the Sword collided with the sword Qi from the Sacred Dragon's Sword. With a deafening boom, the huge sword Qi condensed from the Sword of the Void was actually as fragile as tofu. It dispersed without any effort at all.
Ruijin's Sacred Dragon's Sword contained origin energy, so the sword Qi he shot out from the Sacred Dragon's Sword contained a sliver of origin energy as well. It was a great power that surpassed the Holy Emperor's, belonging to a completely different level of power. Its strength was unquestionable. It could not be compared to the power of this world.
The Sacred Dragon's Sword of the Sword of the Void tore through the Sword of the Void like a hot knife through butter. Without slowing down at all, it continued towards Zaar Caiyun's third Saint Tier Battle Skill.
Zaar Caiyun's face suddenly changed when she sensed the power of Rui Jin's attack. She extended a finger and immediately, the sword Qi changed their trajectory. They immediately lined up in a straight line and shot towards Rui Jin's strand of sword Qi that contained the origin of the sword Qi.
A series of explosions rang out. The Sword Qi that carried the Origin was like a ferocious beast, charging forward with an unstoppable momentum. Along the way, the Sword Qi that came into contact with it exploded one after another, turning into surging Origin Qi that dissipated in the world.
Ruijin only released a single ray of sword qi with the Sacred Dragon Sword.
In the end, it pierced through Zaar Caiyun's chest and disappeared into the horizon.
Zaar Caiyun's body trembled violently as a pained expression appeared on her face. Shortly after, the aura emanating from her body began to fade rapidly as she fell from the sky like a kite with a broken string.
"Caiyun!" A cry rang out from the distance. Hao Wu's body merged with the space around him. He turned into a faint blur as he rushed over with lightning speed. He held Zaar Caiyun firmly in his arms and tried to flee into the distance.
"Leave this person behind!" Jianchen did not recognize Hao Wu. Seeing that someone wanted to save Zaar Caiyun, he immediately bellowed out and used the Illusory Flash. He arrived before Hao Wu in a single moment and stabbed his Emperor Armament at Zaar Caiyun mercilessly as a black streak of light.
A sword that was three fingers wide immediately appeared in Hao Wu's hand. It shone with a dense yellow light as it stabbed out with lightning speed.
"The Holy Emperor, the Eighth Heavenly Layer!" Jianchen sensed Hao Wu's strength as soon as he struck out. He had actually reached the Eighth Heavenly Layer just like Zaar Caiyun, except he had not reached the peak. He was slightly weaker than Zaar Caiyun.
Just when Hao Wu's sword was about to collide with the Emperor Armament, the space a thousand meters away began to violently distort. Vaguely, the distorted ripples seemed to form a huge zither that was a thousand meters long. The thirty-six strings on it were clearly visible.
"Ding!" The strings began to slowly vibrate as a gentle hum rang out. Transparent musical notes that seemed to have been formed from space rang out from the strings, colliding with Jianchen's Emperor Armament and Hao Wu's Saint Armament at an unbelievable speed.
Clang! When the musical notes collided with the Emperor Armament and Hao Wu's Saint Armament, they actually erupted with an extremely powerful sound wave. It was enough to shake a person's soul, deafening them. The Saint Rulers watching from afar even blanked out from the terrifying sound wave, as if they had lost their souls.
Jianchen and Hao Wu's sword-wielding hands both trembled. Their swords were knocked to the side while the powerful force almost knocked Jianchen's Emperor Armament out of his hand. At the same time, the terrifying sound wave turned into an invisible force that was so powerful that it could not be resisted. It pushed away Jianchen and Hao Wu, stopping their battle.
Just a single note was enough to nullify the attacks of two supreme experts. The power of the note had far exceeded everyone's expectations.
Jianchen and Hao Wu stopped fighting. They turned their heads toward the zither that was slowly dispersing in the air as disbelief filled their eyes.
"It's the Heavenly Enchantress," Jianchen murmured as his heart churned. He recognized the zither. It was the Heavenly Enchantress' Zither of the Demonic Cry. It had the same shape, the same thirty-six strings, and the same sound. Aside from the Heavenly Enchantress, there was no one else in the world who could play the zither like that. However, he had never thought that the Heavenly Enchantress' strength would reach such an unbelievable level in just a few years. This greatly shocked Jianchen.
Hao Wu hovered in the air with Zaar Caiyun in his arms. He stared at the zither in a daze as his expression became extremely mixed. There was uncontainable pain in his eyes.
"Mu 'er, Mu' er, is that you?" Hao Wu gently called out. His voice trembled and was filled with excitement. It rang out in a radius of several dozen kilometers.
"Mu 'er?" Jianchen immediately became surprised when he heard Hao Wu's name. He thought, "Does he know the Heavenly Enchantress? Mu 'er? Is that the Heavenly Enchantress' name? "
The zither in the air finally completely dispersed. The Heavenly Enchantress still did not appear. No one knew where she was. Was she hiding somewhere? Or had she left long ago?
Tears rolled down Hao Wu's cheeks. He stared at where the zither had vanished with a pained gaze. He said sorrowfully, "Mu 'er, since you've come, why don't you come and see me? Are you still unwilling to forgive me after all this time?"
"Father!" Jian Chen was shocked when he heard that. He suddenly turned his head and stared at Hao Wu. His face was filled with shock. At that moment, he even doubted whether he had heard wrong.
"This middle-aged man is the Heavenly Enchantress' father?" Jianchen was filled with disbelief. He remained in a daze for quite some time. However, that also explained why the Heavenly Enchantress had secretly interfered with their battle. ‘
Ruijin, Black Fish, and Honglian also stared at the zither sternly. They remained silent for quite some time.
"This girl has become so powerful. She can actually come and go without a trace. I can't even sense her existence anymore," Black Fish sighed in amazement after quite some time.
"When we met her on Dragon Island several years ago, she was still a Saint Ruler. How has she become so powerful now? Was she hiding her strength before? If that's really the case, she's just too skilled at hiding her strength, "Ruijin murmured. He was completely puzzled.
"This person is very powerful. That zither note from before actually made my soul tremble. Do you know her?" Honglian stared in the direction where the zither had vanished. She was extremely stern.
Ruijin nodded, "We've met before. She was with Jianchen back then. She used the zither as a weapon to injure her enemies. She walked an extremely rare path. I just never thought that she would actually be so powerful now. "
"Hao Wu!" Zaar Caiyun looked at Hao Wu affectionately as she gently called out to him. Her purple dress had been dyed red, making her seem extremely miserable.
Hao Wu lowered his head to look at Zaar Caiyun. His face was filled with mixed feelings, "Caiyun, Caiyun, how are you? Are your wounds severe?" Hao Wu's voice was filled with concern.
Zaar Caiyun gently shook her head. Tears rolled down her cheeks as she spoke in a soft and aggrieved voice, "Hao Wu, it's been three thousand years. It's been three thousand years. You're finally willing to come out and see me. Do you know that I've waited here for you for three thousand years? You've made me wait so painfully."
Hao Wu closed his eyes in pain. His heart ached as he said, "Caiyun, you're so silly. I'm not worth it. I don't even have the face to see you. I've let you down. I've let you down …"
Zaar Caiyun gently shook her head and said weakly, "Hao Wu, do you know that although you've made me heartbroken in the past, I've never hated you because I know that this was all secretly arranged by the clan. You've only fallen for the scheme of the seniors of the clan and been framed by them. I only hate the seniors of the clan. I only blame the seniors of the clan. I've never blamed you. "
"Hao Wu, do you know that I've always been waiting for you all these years? I've been waiting for you to apologise to me and beg for my forgiveness. Unfortunately, my wish never came true. I've always waited bitterly for you in the clan for three thousand years, but you're not even willing to see me. "
