Chapter 541: One Sword Immortal Approaches
"Tuoba Tao!!"
Seeing the Buddha-killing Ghost surprisingly appear, Su Mian was filled with shock; this was completely outside of her expectations. The Empress Tu projection promptly blocked, firing Earthly Qi and became tens of thousands of butterflies, but at this moment, the ever aloof Xianbei Star Kingdom's great generals finally took action.
"Dominating Heavenly Master" Yuwen Tai, "Bloody Solitary Excellence" Dugu Xin, "One Arrow peerage" Yuwen Gui and the others did not hesitate to use their Heaven, Earth, Dark, and Yellow Techniques once they saw Tuoba Tao appear.
There were several screams. Feng Xiaolian, Diao Chan, and Zhao Feiyan of the Star World Seven Beauties were immediately grievously wounded, about to Starfall. Su Mian had no choice but to make the Empress Tu projection shield them with a barrier of Earthly Qi.
"Yu Ji!" Yu Ziyu saw her little sister was also attacked and wanted to intervene.
But she was coldly stopped by the Hegemon King. "Su Mian used the Star World Seven Beauties to monitor our activities, yet she did not realize we exploited that. She is no longer your little sister, you must not intercede."
"Bloody Solitary Excellence" Dugu Xin's Star Weapon "Jialuo" became a black python that directly attacked Wife Of The Hegemon King Yu Ji, opening its maw to swallow her. Yu Gewu's Blood Kiss Moonlight appeared, and she used Earth Rank "New Moon Withering."
But how could she ward off the exceptional Bloody Solitary Excellence Dugu Xin's attack. In the Eight Pillars Kingdom, Dugu Xin's martial force was first-rate. The Jialuo devoured her Earth Rank in one bite, then the killing intent covered Yu Gewu to rip her to pieces.
"Star World's Seven Beauties, they truly are gorgeous women. To be able to kill you really makes This One enormously pleased." Dugu Xin showed a vicious grin. She was impatient to rip apart the Bright Beauty Of Yang's brilliant and slightly glaring glow of beauty.
An extremely fast figure obstructed her and stopped the Jialuo."What skill is there in a top-notch great general bullying a weak girl." Chen Mo said coldly as he brandished Northern Dipper.
"You! Impudent!" Dugu Xin was like a hawk. The Jialuo pounced, and black light spread.
Earth Rank "Hell Blossom" was activated. An eerie flower bud seemed to bloom on Chen Mo's chest, and endless Star Energy immediately made Chen Mo's surroundings sink into a hellscape. Chen Mo pulled on Yu Gewu. Although he had consumed significant True Qi and Star Energy to face Bai Qi, he fortunately had the Book Of Changes and the Star Manual Of Masters Gan And Shi. As he activated them, his True Qi and Star Energy both recovered.
Without Ultimate True Qi burst forth.
A "No Snow Under Heaven" crushed this hell.
"What?" Dugu Xin was caught off-guard and Chen Mo swung his staff at her.
The Jialuo barely blocked. The woman's arms stung, and she nearly let go of her weapon. Chen Mo used the Purple Rose Star Eyes and spotted the woman's openings. He flicked his finger, and a Dark Yellow Sword Qi struck her. Dugu Xin could not help but be launched away.
Dugu Xin grit her teeth as she vomited blood. Chen Mo had just defeated Godslayer Bai Qi, so he did not dare pursue.
"You'd better stay out of this." Chen Mo took Yu Gewu to a seat.
Twenty-eight Flying Swords formed a Star mansion Sword Array and stood guard in her surroundings.
"Young Master, what should we do?" Ganjiang and Moye were somewhat at a loss of what to do.
Looking at how clear Chen Mo and Su Mian's relationship was, they were unsure of who to help.
According to logic, Chen Mo should be standing on Su Mian's side, yet Su Mian had placed herself in opposition to the Star Generals. She masterminded the deaths of the Sixteen Star Marquis, creating a reign of terror in Star World. It was simply unimaginable she would do such a thing.
"This is the Central Star Field's matter. We will not interfere for the time being." Chen Qinghan said: "Dream In A Millennium has her own methods. Wait and see."
This was all they could do.
Su Mian was caught by surprise. The Buddha-killing Ghost's surprise Heaven And Earth Kill struck the girl, and five claw marks appeared on Su Mian's body. Star Energy tore into her body to rip apart her meridians. Dream In A Millennium used a soul technique and the Flying Immortals Swords for protection to finally repel Tuoba Tao's attack.
"You are actually still alive."
"Buddha-killing Ghost" Tuoba Tao wore an evil grin. Her black eyes were as dark as an abyss.
"When you made Xiang Yu attack us, We had already convinced Xiang Yu to deliberately fake Tuoba Tao's death to make you lower your guard, Your Majesty. If We are the only one of the Sixteen Star Marquis left, Your Majesty would presumably feel that everything is in your palm."
"Li Liangyi, you are so vicious." Su Mian stared at Li Liangyi.
The Eternal Divine Warrior waved her large hand: "Your Majesty, if you hand over the seals right now and yield the position of ruler of Central, you may keep your life."
"Li Liangyi, you hand your seal over to This Palace, and This Palace will hand this position over to you, how about that?" Su Mian smiled. "Trading the position of ruler of Star World for my father's effects, this is not a loss for you."
"The Star Marquis Seals are the symbol of Star World's ruler. We want them all." Li Liangyi's gaze glinted.
"Have negotiations broken down, then?" Su Mian was regretful.
"Since you are stubborn, Su Mian, and because you killed Dongzi, We can only enforce justice on Heaven's behalf."
"Hmph, how can Star World's million Star Names be ruled by a normal human. Li Liangyi, Xiang YU, let us kill her together." Tuoba Tao breathed out a black qi, and in her hand appeared a spine-like sword, "Evil Spirit."
"Yuwen Tai, do you not wish to become a Star marquis?" Su Mian said.
"Your Majesty, apologies, but you must pay the price today." Yuwen Tai vehemently refused and attacked.
Li Siye brandished her saber, Xue Rengui loosed an arrow, and Li Jing slashed.
The Lingyan Pavilion officials and the Eight Pillars Kingdom all attacked Su Mian.
"Hè."
A world-shaking shout. A mighty woman suddenly appeared in front of Yuwen Tai and blocked her attack.
"Yue Fei!! Are you still shielding this woman who destroyed Star World?" Yuwen Tai screeched.
"Eternally Loyal General" Yue Fei's entire person was intimidating.
"Li will protect Her Majesty to the death. If you want to kill Her Majesty, you will have to step over Your Servant's dead body." Yue Li was unshakeable.
"Courting death!!"
Several dozen Earth Ranks erupted. Their power was so vast that the entire Central Star Field was quaking.
"Protect Her Majesty!"
Millions of Beiwei Soldiers soared up. Each of the Star Soldiers' figures were as steady as stone, not swaying under the Star Marquis' power in the slightest. In this trip to the Central Star Field, Li Shimin did not bring her Black Armor Soldiers. Seeing so many Star Soldiers, she sneered and drew her heaven-splitting "Pan" sword. Her Dark Rank destroyed these millions of Star Soldiers in an instant. At a Realm like hers, the millions in Star World were merely cannon fodder.
But Yue Li, master of these Star Soldiers, was nevertheless not someone that was easily handled.
"Tribute To The Emperor!!"
Yue Fei used her Phoenix Earth Rank. Spear-wind rolled and billowed, sweeping forth in all directions. The Lingyan Pavilion and Eight Pillars Kingdom's Star Generals were forced back by her power.
"Stupidly loyal!" Li Shimin bellowed. The Pan sword whirled, and tens of thousands of beams of sword-qi completely blocked the spear-wind. Li Shimin was the strongest of the Star Marquis, and her Purple Rose Qi was also at its peak. Even if Yue Fei was a super first-rate Star name, she could only put up a staunch defense.
This gave the others a chance.
"Godfall!
"Divine Bright Blood Tears!!!"
"Fury Of Burning Heaven!"
"Raising Heaven Strike!"
"Death Drool!"
"Hell Blossom."
…
"General Descended From Heaven" Li Jing, "Mystical Blade God" Li Siye, "Three Arrows Set Heavenly Mountain" Xue Rengui, "White Faced Divine General" Qin QIong Qin Niyan, "Dominating Heavenly Master' Yuwen Tai, "Bloody Solitary Excellence" Dugu Xin and the other officials all used their Earth Rank and Phoenix Earth Ranks.
Overwhelming Star Energy shocked the entire Purple Forbidden Enclosure. Multi-colored lights filled the sky and became inconceivable specters that snapped at Su Mian one after another as countless Star Soldiers were destroyed.
The others could not help but be frightened witless watching everything unfold.
"Master, are we to sit and do nothing?" Jiang Yanyu asked "White Clothed Sword Immortal" Li Bai.
Although Li Bai was on very good terms with the Purple Rose Star Emperor and was very close to Su Mian, the woman's expression was very indifferent. "This is the path she chose, let her fulfill it on her won."
"En."
Other than Li Bai, the Four Sages of Confucianism, the Ten Permanent Functionaries, the Wang Clan of Langya, and the rest of the Ten Great Sects all looked at one another, but no one dared to enter this battle between Star Marquis and the master of Central. The slightest mistake could render them obliterated.
Empress Tu controlled endless Earthly Qi. The yellow-colored Earthly Qi intertwined with purple qi, forming the sight of two extremes.
The dozen Earth Ranks struck the Earthly Qi Barrier. Empress Tu's Earthly Qi was a very ancient defense, said to come from Maiden Mountain's primordial divine energy, far older than Star Energy. However, under the assault of so many Star Names, the Earthly Qi still broke.
"Seventy-two Outer Void Flying Immortals Swords – One Sword Immortal Approaches!"
Su Mian was unperturbed. Purple Rose True Qi coiled around empty space, becoming layers of vortexes.
Purple Rose True Qi burst forth and covered the seventy-two True Spirits. In an instant, the True Spirit Sword Immortals' purple light surged. As if the Xuannü of the Nine Heavens was brandishing a sword at the mortal realm, the purple sword-light lingered about.
The Earthly Qi absorbed most of the force from the Star Generals, with the remaining practically harmless. "One Sword Immortal Approaches" landed on the chests of Li Jing and the others. Without exception, all of the girls' expressions changed, and they simultaneously sustained injury. Some of the Star Names who were weaker in Realm, like Gao Shilian, were slain. A True Spirit ascended the altar.
Everyone's expressions was apprehensive, suffocated. No one could have imagined that Dream In A Millennium would be so tyrannical. One person alone was capable of holding back the Lingyan Pavilion and Eight Pillars Kingdom and even injuring or killing them.
Su Mian glanced disdainfully at them: "This Palace originally wished to resolve this matter peacefully. Since events unfolded this way, do not blame This Palace."
The girl waved her hand.
Empress Tu's Earthly Qi became nine firmaments that spiraled around her. The Outer Void Flying Immortals Swords' sword-spirits used Star Energy that did not lose out to Heaven, Earth, Dark, and Yellow Ranks. A nigh impenetrable defense, a near unstoppable offense, the two combined and were impeccable.
Li Liangyi and Tuoba Tao glanced at each other, harboring sinister motives. The two held restrained fear towards Su Mian's unfathomable depths and did not dare use their Heaven Ranks rashly. Su Mian alone warded off the Lingyan Pavilion and Eight Pillars Kingdom, surprisingly reaching a stalemate for the time being.
"This Dream In A Millennium is so incredible, to actually be capable of facing so many top-notch Star Names." Long Ju gasped.
"Master of Central, a name well deserved." Fan Zeng said: "I feel she ought to still have some other trick."
"That object on the alter actually leaves me a bit curious." Fan Zeng took note that after a Star General was killed, the Starfalling Crimson Star would descend together with the Star General's True Spirit into that object under that curtain.
There seemed to be something absorbing them.
"Great King, we cannot continue to delay. I fear this is anything but reassuring." Fan Zeng saw that Maiden Mountain was on the verge of appearing and was inwardly worried.
"Truly a bunch of useless things." Xiang Yu wrinkled her brow. So many people were unable to break through Su Mian, and that Empress Tu was also troublesome. The girl snorted. Her Triple Pupils spun, then her figure suddenly vanished.
