The Birth of Sword God
Chapter 470 - 411: Slaying the Immortal Venerable!
Within the Ten Thousand Souls Banner, the one scenario that Snow Venerable’s Primordial Spirit feared the most eventually appeared.
Chu Huaixu leaped up, relying on his extraordinary physique, his leap was as if he were taking off.
His goal was clear; naturally, it was that broken Black Banner in the air!
For Snow Venerable’s Primordial Spirit, any Daoist Sect Elder, any number one expert of Moon Country, any cat demon raised by the Dao Ancestor... were all nothing to fear!
Because that Innate Supreme Treasure is an Immortal Treasure transformed by the Heavenly Dao during the initial chaos of Kunlun Cave Heaven.
Even an Immortal Venerable in the Divinity Transformation could hardly destroy it by external force.
He could only rely on secret techniques and the 108 restrictions he left on the Black Banner in his early years to forcibly devour part of its Innate Power as his final trump card.
Snow Venerable was confident that no matter what method this black cat used, it could not completely destroy the Ten Thousand Souls Banner.
In this way, he still had a slim chance of escaping.
It’s just that, after Teng Lingyi’s death, he had to cultivate a new puppet again.
But he never expected that this young man named Chu Huaixu would be... so brave?
Is this kind of battlefield one for someone in the Fourth Realm to join the fun?
A normal person, after seeing such a world-shaking battle, would naturally lose the desire to interfere.
More would feel the relief of surviving a calamity.
But what about him?
In the blink of an eye, he made up his mind.
——"All you Eighth Realm and Ninth Realm ’trash’, get out of the way for me!"
You can’t do it, then let me, a Fourth Realm mighty cultivator, have a try!
It must be said, in terms of mentality, the Fearless Sword Intent is indeed impressive.
No matter how many epic scenes he had witnessed before, no matter how earth-shattering those special effects were, Chu Huaixu did not flinch.
"Damn it, shouldn’t I rush up and grab some experience points?" His player instincts flared up.
And indeed, it was him that the Snow Venerable’s Primordial Spirit feared!
He was well aware that Chu Huaixu’s Heart Sword had the power to annihilate Primordial Spirits.
Even the Primordial Spirits of the Nascent Soul Stage, as well as the Divine Thought of the Ancestor Emperor, could be cut down with a single sword.
Just unsure if he could obliterate a Primordial Spirit of a higher realm like his own Divinity Transformation Primordial Spirit.
The problem was, he did not want to be the experiment.
How could one test such a thing? Try and you might die....
Of course, for Snow Venerable, the fundamental reason was that he was not in his prime.
He had been wandering the Profound Yellow Realm for over a thousand years.
The Heavenly Dao exerted a suppression on Primordial Spirits as well.
This would slowly erode his power.
When residing within a cultivator, the suppression and backlash would be significantly reduced.
Having lived for countless ages, Snow Venerable now felt like a tiger fallen from grace, bullied by dogs.
A mere ant in the Fourth Realm dared to bark before him.
Yet ironically, he couldn’t guarantee, nor was he certain, how many strikes from Chu Huaixu he could withstand in his current condition?
Soon, he got his answer.
One strike.
....
....
Whoosh!—
The mountain wind blew past as Chu Huaixu leaped, his black and gold robes fluttering fiercely.
The Ten Thousand Souls Banner attempted to flee, but was firmly suppressed by the power of the Cat Demon, immobilized in midair.
All eyes were fixed on this young man.
Including the black cat standing amid the rolling dark clouds.
The Daoist Sect members had witnessed Chu Huaixu destroy a cultivator’s Primordial Spirit firsthand.
Back then, Jiang Zhi took out the Golden Alms Bowl, and a soul seed of the Primordial Spirit was sealed within it.
And Chu Huaixu?
He merely glanced at it.
——Upon a single glance, it perished.
As for Xiahou Yue, although he hadn’t seen such a divine moment, he did personally witness Chu Huaixu cut down the main soul of the Ancestor Emperor with one sword!
However, only the Cat Demon hadn’t seen Chu Huaixu wield the Heart Sword.
Back when it cast its Nightmare, the Heart Sword seemed to encounter some issue.
Otherwise, its Nightmare would have been obliterated on the spot!
At this moment, under everyone’s watch, Chu Huaixu had leaped to the front of the Ten Thousand Souls Banner.
He slowly closed his eyes, his index and middle fingers already joined together.
Then, his two fingers gently moved across his forehead.
He was concentrating on gathering the power of the Heart Sword.
Subsequently, he slashed horizontally forward with fingers as sword!
An invisible force instantly slashed toward the broken Ten Thousand Souls Banner.
The group of cultivators merely had to release their Divine Sense to perceive the terror of this strike!
It was a tremor from the level of the soul.
Chu Huaixu was actually unsure if he could slice through the Primordial Spirit across the Ten Thousand Souls Banner.
Because if the Heart Sword cuts a soul through a body, its effect would be greatly reduced.
Otherwise, he would have been invincible.
But an Innate Supreme Treasure is ultimately an inanimate object.
The Snow Venerable’s Primordial Spirit began to fully exert the power of the Ten Thousand Souls Banner.
At this moment, the Donghuang Ring on Chu Huaixu’s left hand seemed to sense something.
Black turbulent currents with annihilative aura surged from the Ten Thousand Souls Banner and were completely absorbed by the ring.
This made the black cat, about to strike amidst the clouds, pause in its actions.
It looked at the ring with keen interest and tilted its head.
Chu Huaixu also felt a degree of surprise in his heart.
Who would have thought the Donghuang Ring would have such a function?
However, now is not the time for research.
The power of the Heart Sword pierced through the Ten Thousand Souls Banner directly.
The Snow Venerable’s Primordial Spirit, hiding inside the Black Banner, began to twist instantly.
This power of great stature, even describable as supreme, with just one sword, completely annihilated it!
An ordinary Primordial Spirit takes one sword.
Even a Divinity Transformation Primordial Spirit requires only one sword!
The traces of the respected Immortal Venerable from Kunlun Cave Heaven remaining in the human world were thus completely erased.
In contrast, the cat demon amidst the clouds, after witnessing the power of the Heart Sword for the first time, its eyes suddenly transformed into vertical slits.
"This sword is..."
"Is it you?"
"It’s actually you!!!"
This deaf black cat always speaks in a loud voice.
Normally, it speaks at a volume akin to shouting.
Now, as it exclaimed, the volume was like a bomb, clear for all to hear from far away.
Everyone was surprised by the words and turned their gaze towards it.
Chu Huaixu, who had already leapt and returned to the ground, was the same.
"What is it saying?" wondered the dead fox.
Is it talking about...[Heart Sword]?
He was about to speak when the black cat abruptly retracted into the clouds.
Then, the clouds swiftly flew to the distance.
"This place is not safe, meow——!"
Its voice remained loud.
Before long, it was already out of sight.
Chu Huaixu: "..."
The little goodwill he had painstakingly regained for this cat demon instantly plummeted to the bottom.
"You better not let me find an opportunity!" he thought angrily.
....
....
A great battle thus came to an end.
The Great Cultivators, who ranked among the prominent in the Profound Yellow Realm, were all severely injured.
However, even in such circumstances, their gaze towards Chu Huaixu carried a certain peculiarity.
Or rather, a burning intensity that was hard to describe!
"Even the Divinity Transformation stage’s Primordial Spirit can be slain!" muttered Xiahou Yue, unable to suppress the excitement in his heart.
The Immortal Venerables of the Divinity Transformation stage were towering mountains weighing on the hearts of Profound Yellow Cultivators.
As they understood more about Kunlun Cave Heaven, the more terrifying and insurmountable the Immortal Venerables seemed.
Before Chu Huaixu emerged, they couldn’t even fully solve the Nascent Soul stage’s Primordial Spirit, merely using secret techniques to seal and bind the Soul Seed.
Let alone the Immortal Venerables reputed as eternal, immortal, and indestructible.
But what happened today?
Chu Huaixu slew it with one sword!
Such a feat is undoubtedly uplifting.
It represents that even the Divinity Transformation Immortal Venerables can perish; there’s no true immortality!
This brought a glimmer of hope to the Great Cultivators present.
Upon running over, Chu Huaixu, holding the Ten Thousand Souls Banner, asked first: "Master Nangong, how is the State Preceptor?"
"She’s gravely injured. Just now, fearing she might be affected by the aftermath, I took her to the back."
Behind the bushes, Lin Qingci, with a huge blood hole in her abdomen, had already entered a semi-conscious state, her awareness extremely blurred.
Nonetheless, when Chu Huaixu arrived, he heard her faintly saying something.
More precisely, with her brows knitted tightly and her face pale, she repeatedly murmured three words.
"Chu... Chu Huaixu."
"Chu Huaixu...."
Despite her dire condition, despite taking that blow for him, she was instinctively worried about his safety.
Chu Huaixu immediately crouched down, examining her injuries, while soothingly said:
"State Preceptor."
"It’s me."
Upon hearing the familiar voice, the Female State Preceptor, with her eyes tightly shut from pain, slowly relaxed her tightly furrowed brows.
Then, her weakened body slowly fell to the side, into Chu Huaixu’s arms, and she fainted completely.
Chu Huaixu looked down at the woman who almost died for him and sighed heavily.
