"Hei Shi, be careful!" Liu Jin exclaimed in astonishment when he saw the two Heavenly Humans charging toward her.
He stepped forward in an attempt to pursue the two Heavenly Humans, yet his speed was far slower than that of their sudden attack. Even Mo Yu couldn’t catch up to the two primordial Heavenly Humans!
The Sword Maiden’s celestial sword glowed with a sanguine red color.
Meanwhile, Jade’s Threads of Heaven sliced through the sky as if it were tofu, causing a criss-cross of fractures to form and wrap toward Hei Shi.
This attack was enough to sever all of her possible paths of retreat!
Hei Shi could feel an intense danger and threat of death. However, she didn’t shirk or try to flee. Instead, she quickly retrieved her silver-white spear and prepared to battle.
Fleeing would be useless. Her only option was to battle!
"Connecting Heaven and Earth—True Form Heavenly Net!" With a powerful tug, Jade summoned countless razor-sharp threads. Like a giant ball-like net, these threads completely encircled Hei Shi. They then rapidly shrunk in toward her.
These were threads that could even cut through the bodies of God of Creation Stage divine beings!
In fact, there were even a huge number of peculiar phenomena appearing from the razor-sharp threads. These phenomena possessed supremely powerful Dao Realms, and they could resist the backlash from numerous types of different powers. This would allow the Threads of Heaven to unleash their full power.
Hei Shi resolutely flew toward some direction, thrusting her spear as she did so. However, there was simply a sharp screech as the spear thrust into the incredibly tough Threads of Heaven. She was unable to cut these threads!
"Focusing on a single point doesn’t work either?" Hei Shi faltered upon realizing this. However, she knew that she would have definitely succeeded if she were at full power. Now, however, she was far too weak…
The Threads of Heaven continued to rapidly close in on her.
There was no need for the Sword Maiden to attack at all, and just Jade alone was enough to kill her!
Hei Shi was filled with grief and vexation.
However, the moisture around her suddenly condensed into water.
The amount of water then started to rapidly increase.
Just as Hei Shi was wondering about what this was, the orb of water suddenly burst apart!
A slender and shapely mermaid suddenly materialized beside her. Her Divine Halo was glowing with a dazzling divine light, and there was also a blue divine seal on her forehead that was currently allowing her to unleash her full power.
"You possess the ability to teleport through mediums…? Who in the world are you…?" Hei Shi took a deep breath as she gazed at the stunningly beautiful woman before her.
At this moment, a faint golden orb of water had already appeared in the mermaid’s palm. This orb of water expanded rapidly, and when it came into contact with Hei Shi, it was as if a gentle and refreshing breeze had washed over her. When it came into contact with the closing Threads of Heaven, however, it was as if this orb of water were the most powerful and sturdy wall. It surprisingly blocked the advance of the Threads of Heaven!
"My Threads of Heaven were actually blocked by water?" Jade exclaimed in shock and surprise.
The Threads of Heaven possessed the Heavenly Dao’s absolute will and nomological laws to slice through all matter. But the faint golden orb of water before her also possessed a Heavenly God Power!
The Threads of Heaven were blocked. Not only that, but they even started to bend and contort under the powerful force of the expanding orb of water. They started to crack and screech under the immense pressure!
The mermaid who had suddenly appeared to save Hei Shi was none other than Lan Xiaoni, the alliance leader of the West Sea Alliance! Moreover, she had activated the Pinnacle Mystic Technique of Water!
One had to realize that she hadn’t activated this mystic technique even when battling against the three powerful Heavenly Gods just then.
Now, however, she had finally activated it! She had done so in order to fully unleash her might in the higher level battle!
"Try to shatter it again," Lan Xiaoni said to Hei Shi.
Hei Shi didn’t hesitate as she thrust her spear forward again. Combined with the immense power of the golden orb of water, this attack finally exceeded the limits of the Threads of Heaven, causing them to directly snap apart!
Hei Shi and Lan Xiaoni charged out of the cage.
However, what awaited them was an incredibly powerful sword strike.
After accumulating for so long, the Sword Maiden finally unleashed her powerful attack. A sanguine red sword projection pierced through the sky, carrying with it an immensely condensed Heavenly Power and Dao Realm of Death as it furiously slashed at the two women!
This sword strike was even more powerful and devastating than Jade’s Threads of Heaven. After all, the Threads of Heaven had been attempting to trap and slice through its target just then. However, this sword strike only possessed a single aim—to kill!
The Sword Maiden’s killing intent was as profound as could be.
At the same time, her attack was also as powerful and intense as could be!
Hei Shi’s hair stood on end. To say nothing of right now, even if she were at full power, it would have still been extremely difficult for her to block this attack.
However, it was as if Lan Xiaoni had already anticipated this. With a wave of her hand, a furious wave of golden water surged forth, slamming toward the devastating sword projection.
However, the sword projection instantly tore through this torrent of golden waves.
Just when Hei Shi started to become worried again, she suddenly realized that the sword projection was becoming weaker and weaker as it pierced through the torrent of golden waves. The Sword Maiden’s paramount sword might was actually being continually weakened by the golden waves!
Water could wash away all matter, and it could also erode all matter.
Lan Xiaoni was unleashing the full potential of water!
When the Sword Maiden’s terrifying sword projection finally arrived before Lan Xiaoni, she had already condensed a deep blue sword of water. With a single slash, she easily destroyed the Sword Maiden’s sword projection…
Both sides fell silent.
Hei Shi was astounded. She had never imagined that she would be protected by a woman at the Dao Integration Stage. Moreover, this was a Dao Integration Stage cultivator who was unfathomably powerful.
Meanwhile, the Sword Maiden found this to be inconceivable.
How could an ordinary Heavenly Goddess possess such profound power?
If she didn’t know, she would have thought that she was battling against a Supreme Heavenly God!
"Sword Maiden, she can’t maintain this state for too long! If we attack together, she’ll be pushed to her limit in no time!" Jade summoned her Threads of Heaven as she charged toward Hei Shi and Lan Xiaoni again.
The Sword Maiden finally came to her senses.
This was indeed the case! She had been terrified by Lan Xiaoni’s might just then, yet she had ignored the fact that Lan Xiaoni had definitely paid some huge price to activate a mystic technique. By placing her under immense pressure, she would definitely collapse in no time!
Upon realizing this, the Sword Maiden’s confidence instantly rose explosively.
Right at this moment, however, snow suddenly drifted down from the sky.
The Sword Maiden felt a deep and bone-chilling cold. She couldn’t help but shudder as she looked up at the sky.
What she saw was the appearance of a blue whirlpool.
Snow continued to fall, with its cold chill freezing the sky.
A woman in white who appeared aloof and lonely strode through the void, walking toward the Sword Maiden.
Upon seeing this, the divine seal on Lan Xiaoni’s forehead pulsated slightly. With a single wave, she caused the deep blue and pure seawater to rise. "Sister Shangguan, I’ll let you borrow one hundred thousand feet of heavenly water."
The woman in white smiled faintly upon hearing this. She faltered slightly, and the one hundred thousand feet of water that possessed the Heavenly Water Power ground to a halt under her feet. This water then rapidly froze over before blooming like a lotus.
After a brief moment, a deep blue sword of ice materialized from this lotus. As if it had gathered all of the essences of water, this sword then plummeted toward the Sword Maiden.
This sword didn’t possess any aura, nor did it possess any sword might. It was a pure sword of water and ice.
It possessed the might of water, and it possessed the chill of ice.
The Sword Maiden raised her sword to parry, yet she discovered that she couldn’t move at all.
At some unknown time, she had already become covered in ice. Her body had also been infiltrated by a peculiar chill.
"No… don’t…" the Sword Maiden stammered. An expression of terror spread across her face.
The blue sword slammed down.
It was like dripping water that could wear a stone.
It ruthlessly pierced through the Sword Maiden’s head.
Shards of ice flew into the surroundings…
