Chapter 766: Chapter 739: Delay
"Old Jian, you just said that I am the Chosen One, but you saw what's happening outside."
"Can I defeat such an invincible Golden Winged Dapeng?" Ye Xiaoyao had some doubts in his heart.
Hearing Ye Xiaoyao's words, Old Jian couldn't help but roll his eyes.
"You think too highly of yourself. Nobody said you have to kill it."
"According to the information from the Elders Association, the Golden Winged Dapeng is just an avatar, and even if it has a divine ability to reach the heavens, it can only stay in this world for several hundred years."
"No matter the situation of the Human Clan, just bear with it for a while and it will pass," Old Jian said in Ye Xiaoyao's heart.
"Several hundred years? The Cultivation World would have been occupied by the Demon Clan by then." Ye Xiaoyao was somewhat panicked.
"You're overthinking it. The Human Clan isn't as weak as you think."
"The Supreme who ascended in the Elders Association must have left some trump cards behind, so your task is to find a safe place, close yourself off from the world and cultivate for a few hundred years before coming out."
"That's when your era will begin," said Old Jian.
Upon hearing these words, Ye Xiaoyao nodded his head.
"It's a pity that I tried everything but couldn't contact the Artifact Refining Grandmaster," Ye Xiaoyao sighed and said.
"No worries, take your time. It's just an Immortal Artifact Spirit Sword, you'll have a chance to get one eventually," Old Jian comforted.
Ye Xiaoyao stood up, planning to go to the Elders Council Headquarters Affairs Hall to accept a few tasks.
After his efforts, he now considers himself a semi-core member of the Elders Council.
He is qualified to exchange Contribution Points for Immortal Tools, but the required points are so huge that it would take thousands of years to accumulate this way.
At the boundary between the two realms in Linsen Immortal City, a giant blade condensed by the Five Elements Spirit Domain lay horizontally in the sky.
On the giant blade, there were traces of demon blood.
Elder Zhan Ling held a giant lion head in his hand, staring at the boundary between the two realms with murderous intent.
"Your clan could've lived for some more time, but you brought it upon yourself."
Zhan Ling led a group of puppets into the channel between the two realms.
Along the way, Zhan Ling had gone completely mad with killing, and just the number of Demon Venerables who died under his giant blade reached eight. The number of demons below the Demon Venerable level was even more countless.
Each time he arrived in front of a Holy City, Zhan Ling used the Five Elements Spirit Domain to condense the East Wind Divine Skill and wash the ground.
After this set, only the relatively stronger Integration Stage demons remained, but they were all trash in Zhan Ling's eyes.
With a murderous aura on his face, he charged in and slaughtered indiscriminately.
During his cultivation, the bottleneck he encountered was also broken through by killing.
Outside Holy Lion Clan's Holy City, a sea of five-colored spiritual energy suddenly appeared, and the vast Five Elements spiritual energy was slowly condensing.
One by one, Dongfeng Missiles were taking shape.
Zhan Ling looked at this Holy Lion Clan's Holy City with murderous intent in his eyes.
"Revenge is still a little more interesting," Zhan Ling said with a smile.
At this moment, Pu Tao's voice sounded.
"Dao Elder Zhan Ling, don't kill the entire Holy Lion Clan, leave a thousand for breeding."
"The Master once said that the appearance of the Holy Lion Clan is quite good, suitable for being mounts."
"We need to suppress two Demon Venerables of the Holy Lion Clan, as there are two vacant places for guardian lions at the entrance of Hidden Spirit Sect."
Upon hearing Pu Tao's words, Zhan Ling waved away half of the Dongfeng Missiles.
Then he thought about it and removed another half.
"Since the Great Master has ordered, let's leave some seeds for the Holy Lion Clan."
Zhan Ling formed hand seals, and three Dongfeng Missiles, trailing long flames, bombed the Holy City of the Lion Clan.
"It's a pity that Xu Gang didn't come. Otherwise, it would have been a real blast."
With the appearance of three mushroom clouds in the distance above the Sacred City of the Saint Lion Clan, Zhan Ling sinisterly laughed and led the puppets to kill their way in.
Outside the Elder Council Headquarters, the Heavenly Earth Turtle reappeared with the Golden Winged Dapeng.
"I've thought it over; you are all people with backbone. The only thing I can do is to grant you a dignified way of death."
The Golden Winged Dapeng's true form emerged, and with one claw, it caught a Sequential Elder.
It was Broken Mountain, the one who had wanted to take the lead in sacrificing himself that day.
"Elder Ming Kong, I will go first." Broken Mountain's eyes showed determination.
In the end, he used all his origin power to unleash his most powerful divine skill.
A giant axe containing all of Broken Mountain's origin power formed in the sky.
Dao scriptures flickered on the giant axe, and the word "Broken" emerged on the axe's surface, as if it could sever all the immortal mountains in this world.
The Golden Winged Dapeng, who was holding Broken Mountain, looked at the giant axe above his head with some seriousness, for he felt a hint of danger emanating from the giant axe.
But it was just a hint.
With the force of the heavens, the giant axe heavily hacked down, as if the Golden Winged Dapeng was a mountain beneath the axe.
"Boom!"
The Golden Winged Dapeng lifted its wing to block the blow, and the giant axe only cut off a few feathers from its massive wing.
"Not bad. You managed to hurt me," the Golden Winged Dapeng said indifferently, then gently squeezed its giant claw.
Broken Mountain turned into a cloud of blood.
"Let's end it for today. We'll continue tomorrow." The Golden Winged Dapeng transformed into a human form and returned to the palace.
It appreciated the expressions on the Invincible Venerables of the Elder Council and was quite satisfied.
When the Supreme was around, the Golden Winged Dapeng hated the confident expressions on the Sequential Elders' faces the most.
However much you used to be at ease, I want you to be as desperate and terrified now.
Ming Kong led everyone and the Pure-blooded Qilin back to the Elder Council Headquarters.
Everyone's faces were ashen since the human race's situation had been completely plunged into a disadvantage.
And this group of top Invincible Venerables from the human race was tightly pursued by the Golden Winged Dapeng.
As long as the Elder Council dared to support the human race's Venerables, the Golden Winged Dapeng from the Demon Clan would launch a total attack on the Elder Council Headquarters.
If it weren't for Xu Fan's words, the Elder Council might have been caught in a dilemma.
Were the Immortal Cities important to the human race? Yes, they were.
But the Elder Council Headquarters was even more critical, as it almost contained half of the human race's foundation.
If the Demon Clan obtained it, the situation would be completely hopeless.
"Tomorrow, deploy the sword formation puppets sent by the Grandmaster to take over. With the sword formation's support, our casualties may be fewer, and the time we can delay will be longer," Ming Kong said.
Everyone nodded, indicating that this was the only option.
At this moment, they couldn't help but think of the Supreme. They only knew that the Supreme was formidable and unfathomable, but how powerful she was remained vague.
However, as they faced the Golden Winged Dapeng in recent times, they increasingly admired the Supreme.
They had the upper hand against such an opponent, which was really admirable.
How strong a person is can be measured by their opponent.
"Then we must protect those Sword Formation Puppets well. A whole set of nine Immortal Swords and thousands of Dao Ling Swords are indeed lavish investments," a Sequential Elder exclaimed in amazement, considering the configuration of the Sword Formation Puppets prodigal in their eyes.
"Of course, by then, let the Pure-blooded Qilin suppress the formation."
"I hope this can hold out for a longer time," Ming Kong said.
At this moment, hidden on the Spirit Island within the accelerated small world.
Xu Fan was cultivating diligently, surrounded by countless mysterious Dao scriptures and boundless Five Elements Origin Spirit Qi and Immortal Spirit Qi floating around him for consumption during cultivation.
