Gate of God

Chapter 668 Dragon Dances Eight Realms

It was a rain of sword that came from the sky. Demonic purple light shone in the horizon, blocking the intense sun. The entire Heaven Dao Pavilion was cloaked with coldness.

Every disciple of the Heaven Dao Pavilion turned to stare at the scene with their eyes wide open.

They looked at the realistic Purple Dragon dancing in the sky, as well as the rain of sword in the air, and the only thought in their head was...

"This is the Heaven Dao Pavilion!"

"Does this mean that Fang Zhengzhi wants to go against the entire Heaven Dao Pavilion?"

If the fight between Yan Xiu and Elder Wu shocked them, this scene right now, as they sensed the sharpness from the sword light in the sky, filled them with fear.

Dodge.

But how could they dodge?"

"No!" At this moment, a frenzied voice cried out. Following that, a powerful pressure surged forth from the Heaven Academic Altar.

Golden light that enveloped the entire heaven and sky could be seen.

Amidst the golden light, there was another realistic dragon. However, this was a golden dragon, with two blood-red eyes glowing menacingly.

"Green Dragon Eye?!"

When he saw the golden dragon, the two other rulers, who stood next to the Emperor of the Great Xia Dynasty Lin Mubai, subconsciously took five steps back.

"Roar!" A beastly roar reverberated in the air.

A golden light shone over the heads of the disciples from the Heaven Dao Pavilion. The golden dragon rushed toward the Purple Dragon, which was still flying in the sky.

"Boom!" The purple sword light in the sky descended and landed on a patch of golden light. A sharp and huge noise could be heard.

Then, more and more rays of purple sword light came down...

"Boom! Boom! Boom!"

Countless rays of purple sword light bombarded the golden light, causing it to tremble non-stop.

Quickly, the patch of golden light was penetrated.

Countless rays of purple sword light pierced through the golden light and descended down onto the disciples of the Heaven Dao Pavilion.

"We can’t dodge them!"

"We have to block them!"

"Let’s direct our energy into the Green Dragon Eyes of the Great Xia Emperor!"

As the Heaven Dao Pavilion disciples looked at this scene, they all gritted their teeth. A brilliant radiance shone from their bodies. At the same time, the light quickly converged with the golden light in the sky.

Explosions sounded off non-stop.

Some of the weaker disciples started to spit mouthfuls of blood. They sat down on the ground. Even the more powerful Heaven Dao Pavilion disciples, who were in the Rebirth State, were sweating profusely.

Some Rebirth State disciples also had blood trickling down the sides of their mouths.

"Shua!"

"Shua! Shua! Shua!"

More and more Heaven Dao Pavilion disciples became injured. At last, a few rays of light shot up and went straight into the sky like lightning.

Those were dozens of human figures.

Complicated runes flashed on their foreheads.

Powerful Sage State cultivators.

"Roar!" The Purple Dragon in the sky clashed with the Golden Dragon. Their dragon claws gleamed coldly with light.

At this moment, something was happening on the forehead of the Purple Dragon.

Someone stood there. His entire body was cloaked with purple light. Demonic light swirled in his eyes. The Scarless Sword in his hands shone with a blood-colored light.

"Scarless Sword?" Mu Qingfeng stared quietly at Fang Zhengzhi, who stood on top of the Purple Dragon. He spoke in a deep voice.

"Pu!" Someone spat blood out again.

The knees of Lin Mubai trembled. He was evidently injured. However, he persisted. Furthermore, he looked as if he was about to fight until the end.

This was because...

He could not let Fang Zhengzhi strike.

No matter what happened, he could not let Fang Zhengzhi strike.

"Boom!" Another explosion sounded off in the sky.

This was the first clash between a Sage State disciple and the Purple Dragon. He slashed out with his sword, which was sharp enough to cut through the air.

Even so, with that slash...

When it landed on the Purple Dragon, all it did was to make it tremble slightly. Drops of purple light fell from the place where the sword struck the dragon.

"Such power! Is this guy really in the Rebirth State?!" When the disciple from the Heaven Dao Pavilion saw this scene, he was visibly stunned.

At this moment...

He realized how powerful Fang Zhengzhi, the one who fought with Third Elder and Fifth Elder, was.

"Roar!" Another dragon roar.

The Purple Dragon did a barrel-roll in the air and dodged the Golden Dragon. A humongous dragon tail lashed out to strike the Heaven Dao Pavilion disciple who attacked first.

"Bang!" The Heaven Dao Pavilion disciple’s body twisted. The snow-like light on his body melted away and blood seeped out from the corner of his mouth.

Disbelief flashed in his eyes.

Even though he knew that Fang Zhengzhi was powerful, he could not believe that he was this powerful. It was unbelievable.

"It’s the sword in his hands!"

"That sword is weird!"

"I must take the sword from him!"

The Heaven Dao Pavilion disciples all exchanged looks. Then, they all stared squarely at the sword in Fang Zhengzhi’s hands.

Then, they moved...

They no longer tried to fight the Purple Dragon but instead, they sought to approach Fang Zhengzhi.

The Heaven Dao Pavilion disciples underneath, as well as the rulers of the two countries who stood next to Mu Qingfeng, all looked at the sword in Fang Zhengzhi’s hand when they saw this scene.

They all reacted to this new piece of information.

Earlier, Fang Zhengzhi lost his battling abilities because of some special reason. He could not even dodge Fifth Elder’s attack.

Hence, how could he make a full recovery?

And even became stronger in the process.

This did not make sense and hence, the only reason was the sword in Fang Zhengzhi’s hand. The sword, known as the Scarless Sword, once belonged to the Sagely Battle God.

Legend stated that the Sagely Battle God wielded this sword to the demonic capital of Blood Shadow City. Then, with this sword, he was able to rip the Blood Shadow City apart and kill the Demonic Emperor Si Kong.

This was a legend.

However...

This did not happen in the past one hundred years.

The Sagely Battle God did belong to the Great Xia Dynasty.

However, this story did not happen in the Great Xia Dynasty now. Instead, it happened a very long time ago. At that time, the world was unified under the rule of a single country, the Great Xia Dynasty.

This sword...

Could it really be the sword that the Sagely Battle God wielded?

No one knew why but this thought flashed past in the minds of all of the Heaven Dao Pavilion disciples. It had no basis, but it was enough to arouse their suspicions.

However, right now, there was no way to test this theory.

This was because Fang Zhengzhi had started to move. Just as dozens of Heaven Dao Pavilion disciples rushed toward him, his black hair billowed in the wind and his blue robes fluttered from its hem.

The sword in Fang Zhengzhi’s hand shone with a bloody light.

Among all the demonic purple light, the blood-red light appeared exceedingly obvious. Furthermore, the killing aura of the blood-red light suffocated everyone.

"Dragon!" Fang Zhengzhi spoke in a cold voice.

Then, the Purple Dragon and Fang Zhengzhi charged ahead together. They flew into the sky and penetrated a layer of clouds. It was as if the dragon had returned to the sea.

However, a second word then came from the layer of clouds.

"Dances!"

Then, there was a third word and a fourth...

"Eight!"

"Realms!"

When the fourth word was emitted, the purple sword light that came from the heaven became totally silent. It was as if time had stopped.

However, this not permanent.

It lasted for only a breath, or maybe for the blink of an eye, or maybe even shorter...

However, one could be sure that when the purple sword light moved once more, they no longer headed down but instead, they congregated together. It was as if ten thousand swords were gathering together.

Countless sword light gathered in the clouds. They dyed the clouds purple, a purple tainted with a blood-red streak.

In the next instant, purple light, streaked with blood-red light, dashed forth.

Eight sword-like figures.

Every sword-light figure was as clear as jade. Every single sword figure shone with purple light. Every single sword figure brimmed with a powerful killing intent.

"Oh no!"

"Dodge!"

"Split!"

When the dozens of Heaven Dao Pavilion disciples saw the eight sword-like figures, they did not even hesitate as they all headed in different directions.

They were super quick.

However, the eight sword-like figures were even faster.

Every single of them appeared capable of cutting space open. The moment the dozens of disciples split apart, they were already behind them.

"Fight!" When the eight Sage State disciples felt the cold killing intent behind them, they all gritted their teeth. They turned around and slashed down on the sword figure.

"Boom!"

Eight explosions sounded off together like eight claps of thunder in the sky.

It was not yet over...

When the eight Heaven Dao Pavilion disciples slashed at the eight sword-like figures, eight shadows appeared from behind their backs.

Eight humanoid shadows.

Every single one of their eyes shone red with a bloody light.

Every single of them held a sword in their hands. They all raised their swords and purple light swirled all over their swords. A draconic aura swirled on top of them.

"Dragon!"

"Slayer!"

"Slash!"

The eight humanoid figures uttered these words together. Following that, the swords in their hands came slashing down on the heads of the Heaven Dao Pavilion disciples, who were still recovering from the impact of the clash just now.

"What?!" The disciples could all feel the sword light coming down from above their heads. Frustration and shock plastered all over their faces.

They could not dodge.

This was because they eight humanoid figures appeared too quickly. There was no way they could dodge. More importantly, the eight humanoid figures appeared right after the eight sword-like figures.

How could they block or dodge?

When they sensed the bone-piercingly sharp killing intent, they were all extremely unwilling. The moment they entered the Sage State, it was as if they had entered another realm of existence.

However, they were all about to die here...

Furthermore, they were going to die at the hands of a Rebirth State Fang Zhengzhi...

"No!" Eight unwilling voices cried out.

Just as they cried out, the swords above their heads stopped. The eight humanoid figures stopped too.

It was a curious scene.

However, when this scene appeared, the dozens of Heaven Dao Pavilion disciples in the air, as well as those on the ground, did not appear too shocked.

Instead...

All of them looked ashamed.

"Master!"

The Heaven Dao Pavilion disciples all stood up together as they bowed their heads in the direction of Mu Qingfeng, who stood at the top of the Heaven Academic Altar. However, Mu Qingfeng was no longer there anymore.

"Bang!" Another sound that reverberated the heaven and earth could be heard.

Following that, the purple light that formed clouds in the sky cleared up. The clouds cleared together with a corporeal Purple Dragon.

"Pavilion Leader!" The two rulers said respectfully.

Lin Mubai did not say anything. He tensed up as he stared intently at the two figures that were appearing amidst the clouds.

Over there...

There were two people.

Mu Qingfeng, who wore long white robes, stood in the air. His snowy-white hair billowed in the wind. In his hand, he was carrying someone.

Fang Zhengzhi.

However, Fang Zhengzhi’s eyes were shut. The purple light on his body was completely gone and even the Scarless Sword in his hands were not there anymore.

Even so, he clenched his teeth. He appeared enraged. In his rage, there was agony too.

"Pavilion Leader, please spare Fang Zhengzhi! The Great Xia Dynasty takes full responsibility for today’s incident. If that won’t do... I’m willing to trade my life for Fang Zhengzhi’s!" Lin Mubai said immediately when he saw this scene.

"Emperor of Great Xia, there’s no need for that," replied Mu Qingfeng when he heard Lin Mubai’s words. He looked surprised. However, he still shook his head.

"Fang Zhengzhi is only his state today because of the Great Xia Dynasty. Without his contributions to the Battle of the Southern Region and the Battle of the Flame Capital City, there will be no Great Xia Dynasty today. Please allow it, Pavilion Leader!" When Lin Mubai saw Mu Qingfeng shake his head, his expression tightened but he repeated his request once more.

At this moment...

A cry of pain resounded in the Heaven Academic Altar.

Following that, a figure dashed forward like an arrow. Blood dripped from his body. He was completely soaked in blood.

"Fifth Elder!" The Heaven Dao Pavilion disciples finally reacted. However, it was too late. Fifth Elder fell squarely on the ground.

At the same time, a horrifying black aura emerged from the ground. Yan Xiu, who was like a demon who escaped from hell, appeared.

"Ahh!" Yan Xiu cried out in pain. His blood-red eyes were almost completely filled with black energy.

"Eh?" Mu Qingfeng turned to look at Yan Xiu. As the noticed that the red light on Yan Xiu’s body was turning almost completely black, he frowned.
