Imperial God Emperor Chapter 573 – An old story of the pas

Chapter 573, An old story of the past

He Ju is dead?

Another headmaster of the eight peaks of Greater One Sect had died?

The two headmasters of Greater One Sect were defeated by the same move one after another, instantly turned into magnificent and strange petals that filled the sky?

For a while, looking at the white petals that were all across the Storm Platform, not one person did not look aghast, mouth gaped open. It was as if they wanted to say something, but as though something was blocking their throat, no words would come out.

The Storm Platform was surrounded by an absolute silence, so quiet that the movement of the breeze blowing the leaves on the ground was becoming very clear.

In the distance.

On the headmasters’ floating peak.

The remaining headmasters of Greater One Sect were tightly clenching their hands, joints bursting, veins protruding, and eyes wide in disbelief.

How can that be?

No!

Impossible!

The two Immortal Step experts of Greater One Sect had unexpectedly… almost noiselessly and motionlessly fallen before an inexperienced boy?

Countless gazes casted onto Liu Shaji, as well as the giant white lotus flower beneath Liu Shaji. The flower that bloomed with nine petals, like a thriving white lotus, was emitting a faint fragrance and each petal was thin as a piece of paper, gently drifting in the wind. But now the flower had only seven petals, slightly incomplete. There was a regretful sense of beauty, as though about to wither under the cold frost of autumn, but who would have thought that the soft and delicate petals, like the invitation of death, could consecutively kill two headmasters of Greater One Sect.

Even calm and quiet people, at this time also found it difficult to maintain a composed outward appearance.

For the Greater One Sect, it was a disastrous loss.

Because compared to Chen Shaohua, such disciples that sprang up one after another like spring bamboo after the rain, the two peak headmasters that had successively died were an unbearable loss to the Greater One Sect.

A gifted descendant can be cultivated in a few decades, but an expert that can be called a top headmaster is only rarely born through hundreds of years of training.

As an overlord of the Clear River Domain for thousands of years, the Greater One Sect had encountered such a drastic reversal of a situation during the Storm Sword Duelk gathering that it was hosting. It was something that no one had ever thought of.

Boom!

The Greater One Spiritual Master was the first to awaken from the shock, with a wild and furious countenance, wind and lightning rising around his body.

He abruptly got up, a terrifying yuan qi erupting from his body, like he was carrying lightning on him, evoking the howling of wind. Immediately within his eyes were two cold and fierce arrow-like beams of light, shooting directly at the Storm Platform.

As if the Storm Platform was suddenly struck by two divine arrows, Liu Shaji’s robe was whipped up in the blast of the sudden and violent attack.

The several other peak headmasters also reacted, looking surprised.

For a moment, on the headmasters’ peak there were flashes of lightning, and the brilliance of the yuan qi spreading uncontrollably.

Layer upon layer of yuan qi were emitting from the several headmasters and the Greater One Spiritual Master’s body, surging endlessly.

The earth shattering imposing aura was rising rapidly, and the dumbstruck audience that failed to react in time was struck with overwhelming awe, heart tightening.

On the floating peak of Nangong family.

Nangong Jue looked at the void where the bones and ashes had long dissipated with the wind, the colour of shock in his eyes.

The strengths of He Ju and Liu Xuezong were well known across Clear River Domain. Even if it was him or some of the masters of the other major forces, they may not be able to kill him so easily.

But now their bodies had been destroyed effortlessly by the descendant of the White Lotus Sword Sect.

The sword skills of the White Lotus Sword Sect, how can it be so frightening?

At this time he gazed attentively at the seven-petal lotus flower beneath Liu Shaji, sinking into deep thoughts.

On the Sky Demon Palace’s floating peak.

The Palace Master Hua Wulei had already crushed a red-coloured jade cup in his hands to pieces after the shock of He Ju perishing.

But he reacted quickly. Holding the fragments of the cup in his hands, he gently rubbed, turning the broken pieces to dust. He slightly opened up his hand, quietly dispersing the fine powder through the gaps between his fingers, without a trace left behind.

The two famous Immortal Step experts of Clear River Domain were like the wine cup in his hand. Without any chance of counterattacking, they were instantly crushed to dust and ashes.

This unfathomable White Lotus Immortal sword and the White Lotus sword techniques had been snatched by the Greater One Sect for one hundred years, yet not one person could comprehend its profound meaning

Such a rare pearl, the Greater One Sect not only had not found its value, and had actually passed on to Chen Shaohua, a successor that was not even unable to withstand a single blow. Even at his death, he still did not know its true power, it really was a pearl dropped in the ocean. For the Greater One Sect, this was a cruel irony.

On the Heaven Devastator Demon Sect’s floating peak.

The sect master, Baili Chengfeng’s calm eyes brightened with interest as he gazed at the illusory lotus flower.

As the currently recognized strongest expert of Clear River Domain, the master of the Heaven Devastator Demon Sect was also known for his unmatched sword skills. Towards the rare sword technique of Liu Shaji, he was extremely curious, since even He Ju, an expert of that level, despite striking first, still could not near the lotus flower, and a high ranking divine weapon of the Greater One Sect could not defend against the petal…

What kind of sword technique was the White Lotus Sword technique?

What sort of speed was needed to break the momentum before sword seals were performed?

How fast did one need to be in order to dodge safely, before the lotus petals came into contact with one’s body?

In the heart of Baili Chengfeng, there was a fighting spirit rising.

This fighting spirit was not towards Liu Shaji, after all, Liu Shaji was just a junior. Rather it was targeted at the White Lotus sword technique. There was an urge to prove his sword skills. As he looked to the Storm Platform there was a trace of excitement in his eyes, like gold light flashing.

The successor of the Heaven Devastator Demon Sect also sensed the changes of his master’s emotions.

In silence, besides shock, there was a trace of admiration for Liu Shaji.

Among the entire Clear River Domain, in these hundreds of years, there had only been one person that had sparked the interest of the master who had become indifferent to the affairs of the world.

On the Heaven Desire Demon Sect’s floating peak.

The men and women were clearly aghast.

At this time, looking at the high-spirited, confident and graceful Liu Shaji on the Storm Platform, they dared not show the slightest contempt. They also no longer exposed any desire, instead each were sat upright and still, quietly discussing something in secret code. After all, in the face of an existence that could so easily kill an Immortal Step expert like he was mowing the grass, the Heaven Desire Demon Sect must be careful in order to avoid angering him. There was a difference in strength between the Heaven Desire Demon Sect and the Greater One Sect, the most powerful people of their sect were only of the Immortal Step boundary. If Liu Shaji was angered, one casual strike of his sword could destroy the Heaven Desire Demon Sect.

……

On the other floating peaks.

The people that gradually calmed finally snapped out of their trance, and began to whisper to one another.

“It’s unbelievable.”

“I can’t believe it.”

“The two major martial arts authorities of Clear River Domain had fallen just like that, it is too terrifying.”

“This is absolutely a battle that shakes the whole Clear River Domain, both Liu Xuezong and He Ju had fallen, the Greater One Sect lost its right upper arm and its left arm. It is a disastrous loss.”

“Yes, it’s a slap to the face, the two headmasters were defeated by an inexperienced descendant.”

“Right, right, when have I ever seen the Greater One Sect fail like this.”

“It was the same White Lotus Immortal sword, but in the hands of Chen Shaohua it could not even withstand one punch from the successor of the Thunder and Lightning Sect…”

“The Greater One Sect defeated the White Lotus Sword Sect back then, invaded its treasury, and took the White Lotus Immortal sword. In the end the Immortal sword was treated like a cutting knife, hahaha!”

“It is the same White Lotus Immortal sword, but in the hands of a descendant of the White Lotus Sword Sect, its power can destroy the earth. In an instant two great Immortal masters were reduced to ashes, it seems that it is better to use your own things.”

“I think so too, they took it away by force, but still could not use it to its full power.”

“Now that you’ve said that, the consecutive collapse of Immortal Step experts and consciousness being struck into mist, have not happened in Clear River Domain for a long time…”

“Yes yes, especially a major force such as the Greater One Sect, who had stood as stable as a mountain in these hundreds of years, no one can shake it in the slightest. I remember the last time the Greater One Sect had suffered heavy casualties was precisely when Greater One Sect attacked the White Lotus Sword Sect.”

“Yes, I remember too, although the Greater One Sect destroyed the White Lotus Sword Sect and broke into its monastery, that battle was said to be quite tragic, countless White Lotus Sword Sect disciples prefered death than to surrender, and took down many people with them. As a result, in that battle the Greater One Sect had lost four Immortal Step masters, of which three were headmaster-level existences.”

“Hush, be quiet, don’t talk, it might be heard… But then again, two headmasters have died, Greater One Sect will not swallow this anger.”

“Haha, I wonder if that kid still wants to continue his retaliation.”

“I don’t think so, he had already successively killed two headmasters, don’t tell me he wants to wipe out all the headmasters of Greater One Sect? That’s crazy.”

“It depends on if he has the strength…”

“I think the boy has poked a hornet’s nest. The Greater One Sect will certainly take action, grind his bones into powder and scatter them.”

There was more and more spirited debate.

The loss of the Greater One Sect on the Storm Platform had changed the situation of the entire Clear River Domain and the power division between the sects.

Many changes were taking place quietly.

……

On a small floating peak.

The shock within Ye Qingyu’s eyes was long and hard to quell.

His mouth curved upwards, eyes fixed in the direction of the Storm Platform.

The huge white lotus flower that Liu Shaji was standing on was just like the invitation of death, whoever it was affixed to that person would die, no matter how strong the person was. The small petals contained an unbelievable power, and even now Ye Qingyu could not see the slightest clue on how the sword intent turned into petals and could kill Immortal Step experts in the blink of the eye. How did he do it?

What kind of power did he possess?

Puzzlement was etched clearly in the lines on Ye Qingyu’s forehead.

He took a deep breath, drawing in the delicate aroma of the white lotus petals wafting around into the body, when suddenly there was a strange refreshing and relaxing feeling.

In fact, this feeling had already instilled into his body as he watched Liu Shaji administer the Nine Strikes of the Lotus Flower. It was indeed a wonderful and mysterious essence, it can be understood but was indescribable——
