Chapter 245 Zhu Rong, look at the sword in my hand
Upon hearing the two women's praise, Tongtian was overjoyed, his chin slightly raised, his face beaming with pride.
"That's natural!"
Houtu and Xuanming looked at the pride on Tongtian's face.
He asked softly, "That Tongtian, was there only one sword bestowed upon you by your second uncle?!"
If there's only one, it won't be enough for the two of them.
After all, they both wanted what their second uncle had given them.
Tongtian was unaware of the two women's thoughts, and simply replied, "Before we, the Three Pure Ones, were born, our Second Uncle came to see us and bestowed upon us three divine swords. This one is one of them."
Upon hearing Tongtian's words, the two women's eyes were filled with indescribable joy.
He quickly asked, "What about the other two?!"
"Naturally, they're in the hands of my eldest and second eldest brothers!"
Upon hearing Tongtian's words, Houtu and Xuanming exchanged a glance, both seeing a hint of surprise in each other's eyes.
He then nodded vigorously.
Without saying a word, they launched an attack on Tongtian.
Upon seeing the two women, he instantly became agitated and rushed straight towards him.
For a moment, Tongtian swallowed back the words of praise that were on the tip of his tongue.
He didn't understand why Houtu and Xuanming attacked before he could finish speaking.
He wanted to praise the sword his second uncle had given him a few more times!
Seeing Xuanming and Houtu launch their attack, Xizi immediately understood the two women's intentions.
Without further hesitation, they also headed towards the Heavenly Gate.
In an instant, the world lost its color, a fierce wind howled, stirring up the clouds and creating a chaotic scene.
The laws of earth, the laws of rain, and the laws of electricity.
The three laws unleashed simultaneously, carrying a terrifying aura of world-destroying power, like dark clouds pressing down, instantly surging towards the heavens.
Tongtian felt such power and his hair stood on end, his primordial spirit trembled.
But Tongtian was not afraid. Suddenly, a fierce and unparalleled sword intent erupted from his body, like a pillar reaching straight into the sky, making people dare not look directly at him.
The two magical treasures in his hands shone even brighter at this moment.
Without hesitation, Tongtian strode forward and swung his Qingping Sword and Zaiyun Sword down in front of him.
In an instant, two dazzling sword lights flashed by, one large and one small, like two dragons hundreds of millions of feet long, surging out.
It carried a surging chill that seemed capable of splitting the entire world in two.
They were suddenly confronted by the power of three laws.
Meanwhile, on the other side, Taiyi and a group of ancestral witches led by Dijiang were also locked in a fierce and evenly matched battle.
Rather than saying they were reluctant to part, it would be more accurate to say that Taiyi suffered repeated defeats.
Every time they retreated, they were beaten up.
Fortunately, thanks to the protection of the innate merit treasure, the Heaven and Earth Profound Yellow Exquisite Pagoda, although he looked a bit disheveled, he was not seriously injured.
Despite Dijiang and his group currently having the upper hand, they are actually feeling extremely frustrated and aggrieved.
Under the protection of the Heaven and Earth Xuanhuang Exquisite Pagoda, the Supreme Being was practically covered by a tortoise shell.
This made them quite uncomfortable.
Although they each possessed a supreme innate treasure, which, when fully activated, would be enough to break through the Heaven and Earth Profound Yellow Exquisite Pagoda.
However, that's precisely the problem—they simply don't dare to do it!
You should know that the Heaven and Earth Xuanhuang Exquisite Pagoda is a supreme treasure of innate merit.
It inherits many of the merits and virtues of opening up the world.
If they forcibly breach this tower, it will inevitably trigger a huge backlash against themselves.
This is what troubles them the most.
You say you're going to fight seriously, but damn it, there's karmic backlash.
If you say you won't fight, then this guy Taishang keeps attacking them with his Panlong Flat Staff.
It's absolutely disgusting.
Frustrated by this, after only a few exchanges, a surge of impulse welled up in the hearts of Dijiang and the others.
Why not just go all out and risk the backlash of karma by directly annihilating the Supreme One!
However, Dijiang and the others only thought about it.
After all, the Three Pure Ones and others also possessed a great deal of merit and fortune from the creation of the world.
Moreover, the reason they fought against the Three Pure Ones was merely to claim the title of the true descendant of Pangu.
If we really kill them, we ourselves will probably not fare much better.
After all, the three Qing brothers had been acknowledged by their second uncle.
In contrast to Taishang and Tongtian.
Yuan Shi is in a terrible state now.
Facing the three Ancestral Witches alone, not to mention that Zhu Rong and Ru Shou were among the three most warlike of the Twelve Ancestral Witches.
Although Qiangliang was better than Zhurong, Rushou, and Gonggong, as the ancestral witch of thunder, he was still extremely irritable.
Even though Yuanshi possessed the Three Treasures Jade Ruyi, he was already seriously injured in the short time it took to fight.
"boom!"
With a sudden lash, Zhu Rong lashed out with the Heavenly Fire God Whip.
Yuanshi was instantly sent flying countless miles away.
Feeling the intense pain in his body, Yuan Shi couldn't help but frown.
His chest heaved violently as he gasped for breath.
"call!!"
After catching his breath, Yuanshi frowned and muttered to himself, "I should have known better than to be so foul-mouthed. Now I'm in trouble! I never imagined that each of these Ancestral Witches would possess a Primordial Treasure!"
"I wonder how my eldest brother and third brother are doing now? Can they hold on? If not, we'll have to resort to our last resort. If that still doesn't work, we should find a chance to slip away!"
But after glancing at the situation of Taishang and Tongtian, he was immediately stunned.
The Supreme Lord is doing well; things are roughly as he expected.
But Tongtian's response was beyond his expectations.
It was clear that Houtu, Xuanming, and Xizi, the three great ancestral witches, seemed to have some kind of apprehension about them.
They did not go all out; in fact, apart from Xizi, neither Houtu nor Xuanming mobilized their most precious treasures.
Under these circumstances, Tongtian was actually the one who seemed the most relaxed among the three brothers.
But soon, Yuan Shi discovered the blind spot.
The reason is that Houtu and the other two seemed to be wary, fearing that they might accidentally destroy the Cloud-Bearing Sword in Tongtian's hands, so they held back quite a bit.
Seeing this, Yuanshi's face also showed a hint of joy.
Although he did not possess the Sky-Piercing Cloud-Carrying Sword, he did have the Cloud-Covering Sword.
Their second uncle had given them three long swords, and each of the three brothers took one.
The clouds that reach the heavens, the clouds that cover him, the light clouds of his elder brother, the Supreme One.
These were all given to me by my second uncle!
Although he and his elder brother didn't always hold it in their arms like Tongtian did, they had never given it away because it was a gift from their second uncle.
Moreover, it's clear that Houtu and the others are quite wary of this sword; rather than being wary, it's more accurate to say that it was a gift from their second uncle.
Therefore, we dare not destroy it!
Thinking of this, Yuanshi had a sudden inspiration and took out his Fuyun Sword without saying a word.
Amidst the laughter, he suddenly addressed Zhu Rong: "Zhu Rong, look at this sword in my hand..."
However, before Yuanshi could finish speaking...
The Heavenly Fire God Whip instantly tore through countless spaces and struck the Cloud-Covering Sword directly.
Faced with the Heavenly Fire God Whip, a supreme innate treasure, the Cloud-Covering Sword, a mere high-grade innate spiritual treasure, was utterly powerless against it.
A crisp "click" sound rang out.
The Cloud-Covering Sword suddenly shattered into countless fragments, dissipating into the void.
Only the sword hilt remained, still in Yuan Shi's hands.
"What a piece of junk! How dare you show it off like this!" Zhu Rong muttered to himself.
Yuanshi: "..."
Yuan Shi's face also turned red and even black in an instant.
This guy is incredibly rude, completely lacking in manners, and he doesn't play by the rules at all!
Couldn't you just wait for him to finish speaking?!
So the question is, what should we do now?
The Cloud-Covering Sword is gone!
