Chapter 517: The Extinguishing Tide’s Scream
BOOM!!!
A sword cry echoed, a deafening roar, the world trembling.
The moment Jue Mie Qing Xiao, the World-Ending Azure Sky, drew its blade, the Sacred Domain was plunged into chaos, screams of terror and despair echoing, the air filled with the sound of tearing space.
A single strike, just one, and the entire Black Tide Ancient City would be annihilated.
Even before the blade fell, a chilling dread, like the approach of winter, had already gripped the hearts of the city’s inhabitants.
At this moment, not only Shui Yuefei, but even the other powerful beings present, stared in disbelief at the pearl-like woman cowering within its shell, its cries muffled.
The Extinguishing Tide, terrified by the mere sight of the unsheathed blade, had lost its composure.
Although the jiggling of its soft, white flesh as it trembled was… a sight to behold, it was also rather embarrassing for Shui Yuefei.
Tears welled up in the Extinguishing Tide’s eyes, its face a picture of wounded innocence, like a delicate flower, its demeanor lacking the dignity of a powerful being.
“Should I recall it?” Seeing the Extinguishing Tide’s pitiful display, Gong Lianyue felt a pang of sympathy.
After all, its soft, vulnerable appearance appealed to her. And since it wasn’t much use in battle, it could at least serve as a comfort companion.
Hum—
A green sword beam, sharp and piercing, shot towards the sky, the spirit energy around the Extinguishing Tide instantly vaporizing, scattering like dust.
Below, in the heart of the Sacred Domain, the green-haired woman, her body bent low, her hand gripping the hilt of her sword, her long, flowing green hair trailing on the ground, her gentle eyes filled with a destructive power, crouched, her white foot pressing against the earth, preparing to leap, her aura radiating outwards, like ripples in a pond.
“Here it comes…” Shui Yuefei’s teardrop eyes spun, her voice grim.
As Mie Que Qing Xiao assumed its stance, the battle entered its final phase.
The fate of the Black Tide Ancient City rested on the Extinguishing Tide’s next move.
In tens of thousands of years, few had forced the World-Ending Azure Sky to unleash its First Stage Liberation, fewer still had even witnessed it draw its blade. Whether Shui Yuefei lived or died, her name would be etched in history.
Swish!!!
A single slash, the world divided.
Time and space seemed to freeze, shatter, as the beautiful, green-haired woman, her hand gripping the ancient three-foot sword, leaped into the sky, a trail of green sword energy, stretching for hundreds of millions of kilometers, like a comet’s tail, threatening to tear the very fabric of the spirit world.
The earth crumbled, the sky tore, the air filled with the sword’s terrifying, world-shattering aura, the attack rapidly approaching Shui Yuefei.
Reflected in Gong Lianyue’s spinning teardrop eyes was the World-Ending Azure Sky’s breathtakingly beautiful form.
The spirit energy particles in its path, consumed by the swirling sword aura, annihilated, its single-minded focus, a single, decisive strike.
“Eeeeeeek!!!”
At the same time, the Extinguishing Tide’s cries continued, its shrill, ghostly wails transforming into a wave of watery spirit energy, like a tsunami, crashing towards Mie Que Qing Xiao.
As the two forces collided, seven or eight devastating sword beams, erupting from the World-Ending Azure Sky, their speed too fast for anyone to see, their trajectories unpredictable, struck the surrounding shell, their impact sending the pearl-like woman within tumbling, blood spraying from its mouth, its body convulsing.
Each sword strike, a massive gash in the sky, a terrifying display of power.
The green sword beams, tearing through the blue waves, struck the shimmering shell, and the Extinguishing Tide’s cries were abruptly cut short, replaced by weak whimpers.
“Pwah!”
And Mie Que Qing Xiao, struck by the blue wave, coughed up a mouthful of white blood, its hand clutching its core, its face contorted in pain.
The Destruction Calamity… injured…?
As everyone watched in disbelief, Mie Que Qing Xiao’s movements ceased.
How… how could this whimpering, shell-bound creature possibly injure the Destruction Calamity?!
…
…
The World-Ending Azure Sky’s sword intent, capable of annihilating all spirit energy and matter, could even withstand the Nether Spring Narcissus’s intangibility. It could easily shatter the Extinguishing Tide’s sonic attacks.
However, upon contact with those azure waves, its own spirit energy had become chaotic, its flow disrupted…
The Extinguishing Tide, a legendary, water-attribute, mysterious-type spirit beast. As a mysterious type, it didn’t need to physically touch its opponent.
Its mere presence, whether through sound, sight, or even the resonance of their cores, was enough.
The Extinguishing Tide might not be able to defeat the World-Ending Azure Sky in a direct confrontation, but it was the only being capable of injuring it.
When it comes to screaming… the Extinguishing Tide is unmatched!
Both injured, the World-Ending Azure Sky, after a moment of silence, decided to ignore the screaming shellfish and turned its attention to Shui Yuefei.
Its beautiful, green form, like a falling star, rapidly approaching, filling Shui Yuefei’s vision, a chilling premonition of death, her heart pounding. If it weren’t for her image as the Water Moon Concubine, she would have screamed.
The green sword beam, like a waterfall from the heavens, a terrifying, inescapable force.
Shui Yuefei, the blue-haired woman in the transparent bathrobe, her expression calm, her demeanor indifferent, showed no fear.
It wasn’t that she wasn’t afraid of death, but that she believed she wouldn’t die.
After all, she still had several powerful spirit beasts she hadn’t summoned yet. She must have some hidden trump card.
Bang!
A single strike, a shattering blow.
A white wing unfurled, and the countless sword beams were deflected, scattered like dust.
A woman in a black robe, her long, white hair like flowing snow, a single crimson streak, a rebellious strand, standing out.
Her face, beautiful, cold, and arrogant, her form like a crane, its feathers black and white, its aura chilling, its arms wrapped around Shui Yuefei’s waist, a strangely intimate embrace.
[Can you do that again?…]
[That thing…]
[White-Browed Concubine: I’m not a combat type. I can’t defeat the World-Ending Azure Sky.]
