Chapter 735 The Fourth Saint Rune (1/2)
The golden heart transformed into a stream of light and was swallowed into palace master Sheng Yuan’s body. His eyes closed as the world around him went still.
All the wind and flowing Genesis Qi seemed to stop at this moment.
It was as though time and space had frozen.
Countless shocked gazes shifted towards palace master Sheng Yuan. At this moment, they felt an indescribable imposing aura gradually emerge from his body.
The entire world seemed to tremble under his aura.
A golden wisp rapidly began to grow above palace master Sheng Yuan’s head, ultimately turning into a burning golden flame. The flame slowly flowed, seemingly taking the shape of a golden lotus.
“Saint Flame Lotus.”
The top experts on all sides were astonished by this sight as their teeth began to chatter. It was known that only true Saint experts could turn their Saint flame into the form of a perfect lotus.
The golden flame lotus finally took shape, blooming beautifully.
Endless golden light seemed to flow out from the golden lotus and wrapped around palace master Sheng Yuan’s body. It then melded into his body and began to strengthen him, slowly perfecting every fibre within.
After devouring the Saint heart, palace master Sheng Yuan had properly ascended into the Saint stage!
His eyes sprang open, reflecting the burning flame of the golden lotus. His aura felt majestic and vast, as though he was immortal and indestructible.
Sect master Qing Yang and the others couldn’t help but turn pale upon seeing this scene.
Because they could also feel a terrifyingly dangerous sensation from palace master Sheng Yuan’s body.
With an indifferent expression, palace master Sheng Yuan’s lips moved as his voice echoed throughout heaven and earth.
“Genesis restriction.
When his voice spread, everyone was aghast to feel the Genesis Qi in the area silently vanish without a trace. Even the Genesis Qi within their bodies was mysteriously dissipating at an alarming rate.
Dong! Dong!
Multiple figures plummeted from the sky like birds with broken wings.
All Genesis Qi had been forbidden in this part of the world.
Here, even experts of the Law Domain would find it hard to survive.
This was the power of the Saint stage. Once the word was said, it would be strictly enforced. A single command was all that was required to make the entire place devoid of Genesis Qi.
The top experts fell one after another, leaving only sect master Qing Yang, the Heavenly Sword Sovereign, and venerable lord Gu Jing standing in the air. This was because each of them possessed a Saint treasure that could block the power of a Saint expert.
“Let's see what you’ll be able to do this time.”
Palace master Sheng Yuan lifted his hand and the fiercely shaking Life Executioner Painting gradually calmed down. Boundless black and white qi emerged from within the painting, some of it even overflowing to the outside world.
Black and white qi converged into a huge vortex within the Life Executioner Painting, directly swallowing the pillars of golden light that had been drawn into existence by Yaoyao.
Golden light began to fade as black and white qi continued to pour in from all directions.
Boom!
A black and white lightning bolt shot out from the churning black and white qi and sped towards Yaoyao’s direction like a raging dragon.
That power of the black and white lightning was extremely terrifying and was stained with flames, the flames of a Saint!
In his temporary entry into the Saint stage, palace master Sheng Yuan’s strength had now reached a very frightening level.
Yaoyao’s wrist rapidly moved, manipulating the countless Genesis Runes around her to form a golden light barrier. However, the light barrier trembled and shrank whenever the black and white lightning struck.
No matter how Yaoyao swung the Genesis Rune brush, the black and white lightning drew closer and closer.
Anyone could tell that the situation had begun to change after palace master Sheng Yuan devoured the Saint heart.
Sect master Qing Yang’s heart sank. If Yaoyao were subdued, there would be no one left to stop palace master Sheng Yuan.
“You don’t know what's good for you. After I subdue you, the entire Cangxuan Sect will accompany you, including that boy.” Palace master Sheng Yuan's voice was filled with indifference as he watched the black and white lightning bolts raging in the Life Executioner Painting.
He was evidently a little annoyed that he had been pushed so far by Yaoyao.
Inside the Life Executioner Painting.
Yaoyao stopped swinging the Genesis Rune Brush and slowly lifted her head. Her eyes penetrated the Life Executioner Painting to look the palace master in the eye as a heart-palpitating cold killing intent stirred in their depths.
She seemed to be asking Sheng Yuan with her eyes; did he really want to die?
Palace master Sheng Yuan naturally understood the meaning behind her gaze, but he merely smiled and shook his head in response. “Impudence.”
He obviously viewed this as a powerless threat. After all, he had already stepped into the Saint stage. How was Yaoyao possibly going to fight against him now?
Yaoyao’s ethereally beautiful eyes suddenly turned towards the mysterious space where Zhou Yuan was. She gazed at him for a good while, before she slowly closed her eyes as if she had decided something.
The already crumbling seal between her brows began to crack even more.
