Tao Zhengtian's face paled from anger when he heard what Jianchen had said. His killing intent had reached its limit. He yelled out, "Ruler of the Turtle clan, I, Tao Zhengtian, swear that I will grind your bones to dust. I will make you regret this. You will pay a heavy price for what you have done today."
"Hahaha, I, Jianchen, have never regretted my actions. Tao Zhengtian, you may be stronger than me right now, but you don't have the right to grind my bones to dust with your current strength," Jianchen sneered before shooting out five powerful strands of black sword Qi with lightning-like speed from the Emperor Armament in his hand.
With a single movement, Tao Zhengtian easily dodged Jianchen's five strands of sword Qi. Although the sword Qi did not hit Tao Zhengtian, they continued off into the distance without slowing down. They caught up to the five Saint Rulers of the Tao family in a single moment, piercing into their bodies and disappearing.
"Argh!"
The five Saint Rulers all cried out in pain. Their facial muscles were twisted, as if they were enduring some sort of unbearable torture. However, their cries only lasted for less than a second before they came to a halt.
Then, their eyes turned hollow. The black sword Qi that had pierced into their bodies had already entered their primordial spirits, shattering their primordial spirits and destroying them in both form and spirit.
Tao Zhengtian had focused all of his attention on Jianchen, but he still knew what was happening in the surroundings. Seeing how Jianchen's five strands of sword Qi just happened to hit the five Saint Rulers of the Tao family, it was impossible for him to not understand that Jianchen's target was not him but the Saint Rulers of the Tao family.
Tao Zhengtian immediately roared out in anger. He attacked Jianchen with his spear even more wildly. He hated Jianchen to the core. The Tao family was large and one of the most powerful clans in the territory of the Poseidon hall, but they only had around a dozen Saint Rulers. Losing five Saint Rulers in a single stroke was a great loss to the Tao family.
Tao Zhengtian's spear and Jianchen's Emperor Armament danced around like blurs. The spears would collide with the Emperor Armaments from time to time, erupting with loud booms. Powerful streams of energy and scattered sword Qi shot off in all directions, creating huge pits and bottomless holes in the ground.
A few wounds had already appeared on Jianchen's body, dyeing his clothes red. Even though he was injured, his battle prowess did not decrease at all. Instead, he became more and more courageous. At the same time, Chaotic Force rapidly circulated through his body. Not only did it control his wounds in an extremely short amount of time, but it also rapidly healed them.
Jianchen was indeed not Tao Zhengtian's opponent, but it was basically impossible for Tao Zhengtian to kill Jianchen. Even heavily injuring Jianchen and killing Jianchen was not something that could be done in a short amount of time.
At this moment, there was another flash of dazzling golden light. Tie Ta's golden axe soared through the air, swinging toward the Third Heavenly Layer Holy Emperor. Before the axe had even arrived, the supreme battle intent within it seemed to have transformed into a huge hammer, viciously striking the Third Heavenly Layer Holy Emperor's soul. It shattered his courage to fight at that moment, causing him to become stunned for a moment.
At that moment, there was a flash of golden light. The axe had already turned into a blur as it swung down from the Third Heavenly Layer Holy Emperor's head, shattering his soul. Even his body had been cleaved in half by Tie Ta's attack. Blood rained down from the sky as a rain of blood.
Tie Ta casually removed a Space Ring. Afterwards, he did not stop at all. With a flash of golden light, he vanished. When he reappeared, he was before Nubis.
Nubis's opponent was a Fourth Heavenly Layer Holy Emperor. Although he was at the same level as Nubis, Nubis was a Golden-Striped Silver Snake of antiquity. There were very few people who could match him at the same level as Nubis. Although it was very difficult for him to kill someone at the same level as him in such a short amount of time, he was still able to heavily injure and poison his opponent.
This was the poison of the Golden-Striped Silver Snake. It was extremely potent. Coupled with the fact that Nubis was already at the Fourth Heavenly Layer of the Holy Emperor, his body was several times more powerful than before. Even a Holy Emperor would not be able to escape death if he was not treated quickly.
"Big guy, I, the great Nubis, can kill him. He won't be able to last much longer. Don't worry about me. Go help the others." Nubis obviously knew what Tie Ta wanted to do when he arrived beside him, so he hurriedly said to Tie Ta.
"Nubis, Jianchen said that we have to kill a few Holy Emperors in the shortest amount of time possible. Otherwise, once Tao Zhengtian takes out the divine hall, we won't have a chance anymore. Let me deal with him quickly right now. Then immediately go help Jianchen deal with Tao Zhengtian," Tie Ta said in a muffled voice.
"Alright, big guy. I'll leave this person to you. I'll go help Jianchen." Nubis obeyed Tie Ta's suggestion and left his opponent to Tie Ta. He immediately went to help Jianchen deal with Tao Zhengtian.
The Tao Family had two Holy Emperor experts in total. The first was Tao Zhengtian, and the second was Tao Lin. Tao Lin had been poisoned by the Silver Striped Golden Snake during his battle with Nubis, and his strength had been greatly reduced. Then, he took on several attacks from Nubis, and was heavily injured. It seemed that he wouldn't be able to last much longer. Coincidentally, his opponent changed from Nubis to the even more terrifying Tie Ta. This made Tao Lin's heart sink.
Although he had never clashed with Tie Ta before, he had witnessed how Tie Ta had killed two Holy Emperor experts effortlessly. Probably even the strongest person in the Tao family, Tao Zhengtian, would not be able to achieve such a glorious feat. How long could he last against Tie Ta who could easily kill two Holy Emperor experts while he was heavily injured?
Tao Lin became extremely fearful of Tie Ta at that moment. He did not want to fight with Tie Ta at all, so he turned around and fled as quickly as he could.
Seeing Tao Lin running away from him without a fight, Tie Ta was slightly stunned as well. However, he immediately smiled and said, "You can't escape from me. Heaven Battling Profound Skill — Chasing Stars and Moon!" With that, Tie Ta vanished with a flash of golden light. Basically in the next moment, he silently reappeared several thousand meters away. Not only did he catch up to Tao Lin, but he also happened to block Tao Lin's path.
Tao Lin was shocked when he saw Tie Ta suddenly appear in front of him like he had teleported. Disbelief filled his face. However, before he could do anything, a dazzling golden light appeared before his eyes. He saw Tie Ta swing the golden axe on his shoulder towards him. Just when he wanted to dodge, a supreme battle intent seemed to transform into a huge hammer that smashed against his soul. It made him feel like a bolt of lightning had exploded in his head out of nowhere. It was deafening. Not only did it shatter all his courage to fight, it even stunned him.
The supreme battle intent within the axe had been casually unleashed by Tie Ta. He had not purposefully accumulated it. Coupled with the fact that Tao Lin was more powerful than the two Holy Emperors that Tie Ta had killed earlier, his soul was slightly more powerful. Naturally, his resistance was greater as well.
Just as Tower's axe was about to hit Tao Lin, Tao Lin suddenly woke up. Looking at the golden axe that kept growing bigger in front of him, he was so scared that his face turned pale. Without thinking, he used the trident in his hand to block in front of him.
Clang!
The trident blocked Tower's axe and broke into two halves from the middle. The huge impact sent Tao Lin flying from the sky and smashed into the ground below, creating a large crater. His whole body sank deep into the crater and blood gushed out of his mouth.
Tie Ta did not plan on going around Tao Lin. He immediately followed up with his golden axe.
"Tao Lin!" Tao Zhengtian realized that Tao Lin was in a life-threatening situation. He raised his head and roared at the sky. He used all his strength to force back Jianchen before charging towards Tao Lin in an attempt to save him.
Tao Lin was the Holy Emperor of the Tao family, and he had a close relationship with Tao Zhengtian. Tao Zhengtian could watch the Holy Emperors of other families die without doing anything, but he definitely would not allow the Holy Emperor of the Tao family to die in front of him.
Nubis rushed over aggressively from afar and blocked Tao Zhengtian's path. He sneered, "Tao Zhengtian, allow me, the great Nubis, to have a taste of your strength." With that, Nubis spat out a grey, poisonous mist. His hands turned into a pair of powerful claws in an instant. They seemed rather similar to Ruijin's dragon claws. He then swiped towards Tao Zhengtian's chest with lightning speed.
A tremendous amount of energy surged out of Tao Zhengtian's body, instantly forming a meter-thick barrier around him. It blocked out Nubis's poisonous mist. When Nubis' claws came into contact with the barrier, they slowed down drastically.
"Piss off!" Tao Zhengtian bellowed out furiously. He directly struck out with his palm, sending Nubis flying with blood. Afterward, he rushed over to save Nubis.
Tie Ta also understood Tao Zhengtian's intentions. His expression finally became more serious. He changed from holding the axe with one hand to holding it with both hands.
A powerful golden radiance began to rapidly gather on the giant axe from the void. The will of battle contained within the giant axe was also rapidly rising.
"Mysteries of War – Space-Breaking Technique!" Tie Ta let out a low murmur. He suddenly swung down the axe that was raised above his head, sending a blinding golden light into the void.
Tao Zhengtian was rushing towards Tao Lin with reckless abandon. At this moment, his expression suddenly changed. Three meters in front of him, a blinding golden light seemed to appear out of thin air. It was hacking towards him with lightning speed. At the same time, a powerful battle intent suddenly erupted, smashing into his soul like a huge hammer.
This battle intent was many times stronger than what Tao Lin had to endure. Tao Zhengtian was caught off guard and lost his mind for a moment. However, he was a Holy Emperor Eighth Celestial Layer powerhouse after all. Whether it was strength or soul, he was not someone Tao Lin could compare to. He reacted almost instantly. Without any hesitation, he immediately stabbed out with all his strength. The spear in his hand collided with Tie Ta's golden axe.
