Chapter 1297B – Battle of Saint Slaying

Chapter 1297B – Battle of Saint Slaying

No matter what the reason was, it was better to be careful so as to not get caught up in it….That’s right. From the Saints’ perspectives, since Dragon Mountain Half-Saint had already taken action, today’s matter would be hard to resolve peacefully.

After all, what Thousand Faces said was right, the Spring Master was someone who was short-tempered. His disciple had been attacked in front of everyone and he would definitely not let it go.

As they all thought about this, a cold laughter could be heard, “Oh? I want to see how you can stop me from taking them back.”

Initially, the voice was not loud and seemed to have come from somewhere far away. But with every word that was said, the volume seemed to increase tremendously. In the end, it sounded like thunder so loud it caused people’s heads to hurt. ‘Rumble’, the intense aura made everyone’s hearts palpitate in fear.

The Spring Master was here!

Whoosh –

Many of them raised their heads, but before they could locate his shadow, Dragon Mountain let out a furious bellow. With a loud ‘bam’, his entire person fell flat on the ground like a wooden pole. His hair was a mess and blood flowed out of his nostrils. His body was trembling uncontrollably.

The air shifted and the Spring Master stepped out. His eyes were chilly and he resembled an eagle god from the heavens. “With just you alone?”

Pop –

Just as his last word fell, Dragon Mountain Half-Saint could not control the rumbling in his chest anymore and fresh blood spurted out of his mouth.

Before the Spring Master even showed his face, he had knocked out a Half-Saint in one blow and the Half-Saint was bleeding from his nose and mouth! Although they already knew how terrifying this peak True Saint was, their expressions still changed drastically as they saw the scene in front of them.

The Spring Master’s eyes surveyed the surroundings, “Is there anyone who wants to join hands with Dragon Mountain and prevent me from leaving?”

The junior cultivators were already scared from the terrifying aura that the True Saint was emitting. Now, their visions were starting to blacken and it was so uncomfortable that they felt like throwing up blood.

Therefore, this was meant for the Saints present to hear. Now all of them were looking down, pretending as if they did not hear anything.

Embarrassing…it was indeed embarrassing, but everyone was embarrassed together. However, in the current situation, they would never add on or express their dissatisfaction.

Spring Master. This was the Spring Master of the Peach Garden. Irritate him? Did they still want to live?!

Dragon Mountain suddenly laughed out loud. He struggled as he slowly pulled himself off the floor. In the midst of his actions, he spat out another few mouthfuls of blood. He laughed even louder.

“Spring Master, you are indeed very powerful and I cannot compare to you in terms of cultivation. But today, the Peach Garden has done something extremely horrible. Do you think you can go against everyone?” He took a deep breath and spoke in a deep voice, “Scholartree Saint, are you still not going to come out? Are you going to watch me get killed!”

Whoosh –

The air turned overcast as a towering old scholartree illusion appeared and the Scholartree Saint walked out from it.

The Spring Master sneered, “I knew that if no one had your back, you would not have dared to be so brazen…Scholartree Saint, are you sure you want to fight with me in the current condition today?”

Scholartree Saint replied, “Although the condition is not ideal, I have no problems bothering you for a bit.” He turned and a menacing look flashed through his eyes. “Dragon Mountain, you know what to do right?”

Dragon Mountain waved, “Don’t worry, since I’ve already attacked, I will not hold back.”

Boom –

Space suddenly collapsed inwards and emitted a terrifying aura. In an instant, Dragon Mountain was surrounded. Numerous scholartree branches appeared and pushed back, preventing the space from collapsing. Scholartree Saint stepped forward and raised his hand, “Spring Master, your opponent today is me.”

Boom –

An invisible repulsive force pushed back everyone else and a distorted light layer descended. It covered the battle between the Spring Master and the Scholartree Saint.

This was the will of the Vast Brightness. It was an imprint that appeared in order to prevent the world from getting destroyed. This was called the Battle from Shore.

Only those that reached the shore and had the power of a Saint were able to activate it.

Dragon Mountain did not hesitate at all as his eyes locked onto elder apprentice brother and seventh apprentice sister. “I told you. Even if your Spring Master comes, he will not be able to bring you all away.”

He raised his hand and delivered a blow!

Bam –

With a growl that seemed to come out of elder apprentice brother’s body, a Blue Dragon appeared. Its body flowed through the wind, it was the Thousand Mile Dragon. Opening its mouth, aura flowed out.

With a deafening sound, the Blue Dragon flew forth, its giant head swiveling non-stop. The scales on its body broke rapidly.

It had been sleeping after absorbing the source of life, and now it awoke at the critical point. Although its power had increased, it was not sufficient against a Saint.

“Dragon Mountain Half-Saint? Don’t think that just because our master is busy, the Peach Garden can be bullied by the likes of you.” The space seemed to crack as second apprentice brother came out with long hair. His eyes looked cruel and ruthless. He twisted his mouth and let out a low laugh, “My junior-apprentice brother had barely joined and he already became a Saint Slayer. As his second apprentice brother, I have a lot of pressure for not being able to kill one myself so far. Since you’ve offered yourself today, I will accept your head!”

As soon as he finished, he jumped forward. It was as if he released an internal imprint and a horrifying aura erupted.

The Saints’ expressions changed as their eyes narrowed. They could sense the overpowering strength coming from second apprentice brother.

It was enough to kill!

The second apprentice of the Peach Garden, Thousand Battles, actually had this kind of power! If they did not see this for themselves, it would have sounded impossible.

Even second apprentice Thousand Battles was so valiant, then the chief disciple, Tall Sostrong…no wonder there was a saying that although the Peach Garden had few disciples, they were all top tier!

Today, they saw that the saying was true.

Bang –

In the deafening noise, Dragon Mountain Half-Saint bellowed as he was pushed back.

A hint of blood appeared at the corners of second apprentice brother’s lips. However, the horrifying aura around him did not decrease at all, but instead became stronger.

“Just a Half-Saint!”

Boom –

He controlled the tiny ruptures in space to forcefully push Dragon Mountain back. It was like a thousand arrows being shot.

Dragon Mountain lifted his palms upwards and pushed. A massive pressure fell upon second apprentice brother. Second apprentice brother smiled and matched him, not budging an inch.

On the other hand, Dragon Mountain, a Half-Saint, grunted as his body seemed to sway.

At this moment, a growl could be heard from Blue Dragon as it shot out to take a surprise blow that was aimed at second apprentice brother. Its huge body was pierced and fresh blood gushed out.

“A beast actually knows how to save others. The standard in the Peach Garden is not bad.” The person who spoke was covered by shadows. He completely hid his aura and seemed to not be affected by the world.

But it was this man who had attacked and pierced through Blue Dragon’s thick and tough body. He basically cut Blue Dragon in half.

Half-Saint. This was another Half-Saint who was even stronger than Dragon Mountain!

A tremor went through the hearts of the Saints present. They were staring at the intense battle between the two True Saint in the Battle from Shore.

Dragon Mountain joined forces with this mysterious Half-Saint. Could it really just be for revenge? No. Although the Peach Garden’s disciples were indeed precious, they were not worth much to Saints!

Or did they prepare…this thought appeared in the valiant hearts of the Saints. They could not help but take a sharp intake of breath.

Saint Slayer!

Moreover, their target was a peak level True Saint like the Peach Garden’s Spring Master. If this was really the case, their current abilities were not enough, and this meant that the person hiding in the shadows could be a scarier being.

Their mouths dried as their hearts started pounding. The Saints felt as if they had been dragged into a never-ending whirlpool.

If they were not careful, they could be dragged into it and their bones would not even be found!

How did it turn from them being angry because their juniors were hurt in the Lost Garden into this? Could it be that the fourth Saint War was about to happen?

It was simple. If they could not kill the Spring Master today, with his personality, he would definitely seek revenge on multiple fronts and the entire Vast Brightness World would be thrown into turmoil.

Second apprentice brother laughed out loud and his already horrifying aura exploded once more. The numerous veins at the surface of his skin burst open and wherever there was hair on his skin, a drop of blood appeared. “A Half-Saint is still just a Half-Saint. So what if there are two of you? I, Thousand Battles, can still defeat you!”

“Hmph!” The Half-Saint who was shrouded in darkness let out a cold chuckle as his silhouette disappeared.

Dragon Mountain let out a deep growl and pounced forward.

This was something that had never happened before. There were two Half-Saints joining forces to kill a junior who was not a Saint yet.

From another point of view, which was what they had suspected, in order to become Saint Slayers, they were giving it all they had – since they were going to kill the Spring Master, they had to get rid of all of them!

Boom –

Second apprentice brother got injured as blood gushed from his mouth and nose. White bones could be seen through his exposed chest. On the other side, Dragon Mountain had taken a blow as well and his entire face was disfigured. The Half-Saint in the shadows was also coughing violently; he seemed to have taken a hit too.

“Nice! Nice! Come, let’s go again!”

Dragon Mountain Half-Saint spat out a few broken teeth as a hint of restraint appeared on his face, “This crazy man, let’s kill him first!”

The Half-Saint in the shadows smiled and nodded.

Without any foreshadowing, the space in front of them suddenly split open and a hand appeared from within. The hand stretched straight into the darkness and grabbed his neck.

Pfft –

The darkness was like a balloon that had just been deflated as it slowly broke and disappeared. A furious and extremely white face could be seen.

Qin Yu stepped out in a blood red robe, his eyes icy cold, “How dare you touch my second apprentice brother?”
