Chapter 1708 - The Terrifying Battle

The man in a gray robe made his move. He slashed forward with the immortal sword, inflicting chaos upon the area within a hundred thousand li from him. The boundless sword glow vanished and reappeared in void.
The sword was like an envoy who had descended upon the mundane world with the will of the Heavens. He seemed to be planning to destroy everything, as if the apocalypse was taking place.
The cultivators were astounded. Some immediately wore pale faces as they felt like they were nothing but a piece of leaf in the world or a single sand particle amid a sandstorm.
Even the slightest hint of the sword intent of the slash could easily shatter them into pieces like a powerful wave.
“Nine Heavens Supreme?”
Vice Patriarch Hua Yu, the three Envoys, the Peerless Rulers, and the authorities were greatly astounded.
“Wha…what? A Nine…Nine Heavens Supreme?”
The souls of the cultivators that were present trembled.
A Nine Heavens Supreme was easily one of the top authorities across the entire Nine Heavens Immortal Realm, one that could establish a Supreme Daoism faction.
Normally, it was extremely rare to hear the voice of a Nine Heavens Supreme or see a single wisp of their intent, let alone seeing one in a battle.
But now, did a Nine Heavens Supreme purposely pay a visit to the Realm of the Sky just to eliminate Qin Nan?
“All cultivators above the Heaven Immortal Realm, do everything you can to protect the mountain!”
In the nick of time, Vice Patriarch Hua Yu snapped and unleashed his aura. It turned magnificent as he instantly performed over ten thousand hand seals within an instant.
“Dao of the Sky, Immortal Mountain, descends!”
Vice Patriarch Hua Yu tapped at the rift. It immediately stirred up a brilliant light that formed an enormous mountain standing firmly in the rift.
In addition to it, the entire Sky Immortal Mountain started glowing as if it had been awakened from an eternal slumber. The light entered the enormous mountain in the rift, producing the sound of countless deities in the surroundings.
“Let’s attack together!”
The Peerless Rulers and the Heaven Immortal authorities quickly reacted by executing various kinds of Immortal Arts, artifacts, and talismans. Thousands of different lights loomed over the top of the mountain.
BANG!
Following a huge explosion, the magnificent mountain was shattered into pieces as strong gusts swept the surroundings. The ground over a few million li shook vigorously and cracked.
噗！
Vice Patriarch Hua Yu spat out a mouthful of blood into the air as if he had just received a tremendous blow. He slammed heavily into the shining barrier consisting of different lights looming over the mountain. The barrier shook vigorously.
The cultivators on the dojo felt as if the sky was about to collapse. They all wore pale faces.
Some of the cultivators with weaker cultivation groaned as the strong impact struck their minds. They fell unconsciously to the ground.
This was the power of a Nine Heavens Supreme.
Even if he was using just a simple leaf, a petal, or a stalk of grass instead of an immortal sword, he could still unleash an overwhelming power that was like the brilliance of the moon compared to the Peerless Ruler’s strength that was equivalent to the light emitted by a firefly.
Furthermore, the man in a gray robe was not only a Nine Heavens Supreme during his peak.
“Ambush! We got company!”
“Activate all the immortal formations right now!”
The whole Realm of the Sky was startled by the terrifying explosions on the Sky Immortal Mountain. The cultivators above the Human Immortal Realm immediately activated all kinds of artifacts, formations, and forbidding auras.
The entire realm was encapsulated by a majestic immortal glow.
Ancient beasts filled the sky while magnificent figures arrived. The formations were producing strange rare phenomena too.
Each of them possessed unimaginable power.
The man in a gray robe did not seem to be bothered by them. His deep laugh echoed across the place, “I’m only here to kill Qin Nan. If any of you try to stop me, you are all going to die!”
The man in a gray robe slashed forward again, gathering the brilliance of the Heavens and Earth into an indescribable sword glow.
Vice Patriarch felt his scalp turning numb as if he had fallen into an icy cellar.
He was currently a half-Supreme. He had once fought against a Nine Heavens Supreme too, but the slash that the man had executed was just too terrifying. Even if he used everything he had to stop it, he would still die.
“How bold of you to dare behave atrociously in my Sky Taihuang Sect!?”
A huge roar echoed thunderously in the Realm of the Sky, followed by a huge crystalline hand that came from the sky, grabbing at the sword glow.
An old man in a white robe with a long beard stepped out of the rift.
The old man was the current Patriarch of the Sky Taihuang Sect, Supreme Chang Xiao!
The man in a gray robe chuckled. He did not say a word further. He swung the immortal sword. A layer of white flame surfaced on it as he dashed forward and slashed at the Supreme Chang Xiao.
“The ability to transform the Dao into immoral flames? Isn’t that the Ninth Immortal’s…”
Supreme Chang Xiaow as astounded. He quickly reacted and performed a hand seal before he could finish the sentence. Wisps of magnificent force gathered from every corner of the Realm of the Sky and entered his body.
BANG! BANG! BANG!
The two figures crashed into one another.
The surroundings began to collapse as if it was not a battle between two cultivators, but two great disasters ramming into one another.
“Hua Yu, it’s too dangerous here, bring Qin Nan into the Nameless Realm!”
Supreme Chang Xiao immediately transmitted his thought. The Nameless Realm was the third world under the reign of the Sky Taihuang Sect that the rumors were referring to.
“Acknowledge!”
Vice Patriarch Hua Yu collected his thoughts. He arrived above the dojo with a flicker.
“Vice Patriarch Hua Yu, what’s happening…”
“Senior Hua Yu, this…”
Envoy Feng Hua, Envoy Rong Wang, Envoy Yue Jue, and the rest of the Peerless Rulers quickly asked. They had long recovered from the shock.
However, they were still confused by the situation. Why would a Nine Heavens Supreme suddenly show up to kill Qin Nan?
Besides, the Nine Heavens Supreme was not from any of their Supreme Daoism factions.
“We’ll talk later!”
Vice Patriarch Hua Yu waved his hand and looked at Qin Nan whose eyes were closed in the air.
Qin Nan had just ascended as an immortal. Since he had not woken up, it was likely that he was still in the middle of comprehending a new breakthrough. If he was interrupted, it would harm him significantly.
However, they had no other choice.
“Qin Nan, wake up!”
Vice Patriarch Hua Yu executed a secret technique. His voice echoed in the mind and the soul of Qin Nan like a thunderclap.
Qin Nan shuddered. He immediately saw the world, the starry sky, and the figure on the throne in the distance disappearing as his surroundings returned to normal.
“Who was it? Why did you disturb…”
Qin Nan blurted out subconsciously.
He believed that the figure on the throne was a cultivator or someone’s will. Somehow, he felt that the person was extremely important to him.
It was likely that he could learn the secrets and the answers to the questions he had from the mysterious figure.
“Qin Nan, come with me!”
Vice Patriarch Hua Yu immediately grabbed Qin Nan’s shoulder and brought him toward the Nameless Realm before he realized what was going on.
“Do you mere ants seriously think you can stop me from hunting my prey?”
