CHAPTER 357: CHAPTER 357: DEFEATING ELDER SHANGGUAN

"Such a terrifying Sword Soul!"

Chu Feng and others were all trembling with fear, for Shangguan Yun’s cultivation had touched the threshold of the Sword God Realm.

Furthermore, the Swordsmanship he practiced was exceedingly brilliant. The Sword Soul he condensed was naturally incomparably fearsome. Even Qiu Tai, the second strongest True Disciple of the Ten Thousand Sword Sect, could not match him with the giant Sword Soul he condensed.

It simply did not possess such terrifying overwhelming might.

It seemed as if with just a thought from Shangguan Yun, he could destroy the heavens and obliterate the earth, move mountains and overturn seas.

"Scram!"

Shangguan Yun unleashed an imperiously overbearing slash at Elder Shoumei. The Sky Wolf Sword Soul roared furiously at Elder Shoumei as well, its ferocious might unparalleled.

Boom!

Once the Sky Wolf Sword Soul was summoned, the force of Shangguan Yun’s Sword Domain and sword light more than doubled.

With a single sword strike, he sent Elder Shoumei flying over a dozen meters away.

Elder Shoumei’s mouth dripped with blood, and without even bothering to wipe it away, he reached into his bosom and drew out an Elixir. It was a vividly enchanting red, unmistakably the Soul Burning Elixir.

"You think you’re the only one with a Sword Soul? I have one as well!" This was Elder Shoumei preparing to swallow the Soul Burning Elixir, forcibly summoning his Sword Soul to confront Shangguan Yun. The Soul Burning Elixir was akin to a Death Pill.

Because it would consume the Divine Soul, Essence blood, and Primordial Qi.

Not long ago, Elder Shoumei had taken one to combat the Sheep-headed Ancient Demon. Now, he was intending to take one again, and it was certain that if he did, his death would be unavoidable.

"Master, no!"

"Disciple has his own way to deal with Shangguan Yun!"

Seeing this, Chu Feng hastily shouted. He didn’t want to lose his respectful and beloved master.

"The end of my lifespan is nigh anyway, with at most only ten years left to live. If I can do something for you one last time, I would die without regrets!" Elder Shoumei did not believe that Chu Feng truly had a way to deal with Shangguan Yun.

"Elder Shoumei, you don’t need to make this pointless sacrifice. My husband truly has a way to slay Shangguan Yun!" Han Xiaoying’s voice was frosty, but it carried a strong confidence.

She knew, after all, that Chu Feng possessed the Small Exterminating Immortal Sword Formation Diagram.

Right now, she, Han Dong, Chu Feng, and Elder Shoumei could immediately set up the Small Extermination Immortal Sword Formation with their swords combined.

Even the Ancient Demon, after fusion, would be gravely injured if slain by it, let alone dealing with Shangguan Yun, which would be more than enough.

"Han Dong, Xiao Ying, and Master, come close to me right away!"

In the critical situation, Chu Feng did not explain further. He directly brought out the Small Exterminating Immortal Sword Formation Diagram.

Once the Sword Qi was activated, the Sword Formation Diagram unfolded, emitting waves of azure light.

Chu Feng was the first to step in, taking his place at the principal position.

Han Xiaoying forced her opponent back with a sword strike and flew to Chu Feng’s side, also entering the Sword Formation Diagram and taking her position.

Han Dong and Elder Shoumei arrived almost simultaneously.

"What kind of method is this, Apprentice?" Elder Shoumei watched Chu Feng wielding the Sword Formation Diagram with bewildered surprise.

"This is the Sword Formation Treasure Map, Master. Please enter quickly and take your position as I instruct you. Together we can certainly slay mighty foes," Chu Feng urged.

If Han Shuang of the Rashamon Sect were here, that would have been better.

Because her sword is of the Top-Grade Divine Weapon level, while Elder Shoumei’s Divine Weapon is but a Low-grade Divine Weapon.

It would certainly affect the power of the Sword Formation.

"A Sword Formation Treasure Map? You, a mere disciple of the Ten Thousand Sword Sect, actually got your hands on such a treasured item!"

"I am but half a step away from advancing into the Sword God Realm. Slaying you today would grant me several treasures to make up for the Shangguan family’s losses."

Shangguan Yun, along with all the top experts of the Shangguan family, had mobilized fully, harboring thoughts of murder and treasure-snatching from the start.

He originally thought Chu Feng only possessed a single Heavenly Divine Weapon. Little did he expect to encounter an even greater surprise, that Chu Feng actually had a Sword Formation Treasure Map.

As long as he took it for himself, the Shangguan family could completely rely on these two treasures to rise again from the ashes.

This was because those who died from the Shangguan family in this battle were only the top Sword Saints; the Sword Masters and Great Sword Masters were still alive. If they laid low and recuperated for a decade or two, the Shangguan family would certainly produce new Sword Saints.

Moreover, the Shangguan family also has that supreme genius, Shangguan Bei.

Therefore, Shangguan Yun remained full of confidence.

"Sky Wolf Slash!"

"Slash!"

Shangguan Yun and Chu Feng, both shouted out loudly at the same time.

Chu Feng’s Small Extermination Immortal Sword Formation, gathering the power of four people, was also aided by divine weapons, Heavenly Divine Weapons. The sword formation itself also had an amplifying effect.

Boom!

The sword lights from both sides clashed against each other.

Shangguan Yun’s sword light merged with the Sky Wolf Sword Soul, while Chu Feng’s sword light was solid and dazzling.

When the formidable forces collided, the heavens shattered, and the earth split, plunging the whole world into darkness.

The mournful howl of the Sky Wolf eventually dissipated.

As for Chu Feng and the others, it wasn’t easy for them either, as each of them was injured from the backlash and spat blood.

Shangguan Yun looked weak and kept spitting blood, his figure swaying, on the verge of collapsing. Although Chu Feng was injured, he still had the power to fight again.

"Slash again!"

Another sword light was cut out from the Small Extermination Immortal Sword Formation, and though it was considerably weaker than the previous one, slaying Shangguan Yun was effortless.

Shangguan Yun was already wounded by Chu Feng’s Fourth-grade Flame Burst Pill, and now it was like adding injury to injury, categorizing him as being critically wounded.

It was nearly impossible for him to escape the fate of death.

"My fate is sealed!"

Shangguan Yun couldn’t help but close his eyes in resignation, for he had no power left to resist. If he had known earlier that Chu Feng was such a tough nut to crack, he wouldn’t have rashly brought all the top experts of the Shangguan family into this battle.

Now, not only did he not gain any advantage, but he also led to the demise of six Sword Saints from the Shangguan family.

Including him, that would be seven.

"Ancestor, escape quickly and avenge me!" The Sword Saint battling Han Xiaoying, at this critical juncture, rushed forward like a moth to a flame.

He flew towards the dreadful sword light unleashed by Chu Feng, wielding his sword.

This person was only at the Mid Sword Saint level of cultivation, and even if he hadn’t been injured, he couldn’t block this sword light. Now, he was even more on the path to his own doom.

Boom!

The sword light released by the Small Extermination Immortal Sword Formation fiercely struck this person. Fresh blood sprayed, like a spectacular firework, bursting in the sky.

"Ancestor, escape quickly..." This man was very loyal to the Shangguan family, and even in his dying breath, he didn’t forget to urge Elder Shangguan to flee. "Chu Feng, my Shangguan family, even if it means the destruction of our clan, will slaughter you!"

Clutching his teeth, Shangguan Yun, despite his injuries, flew on his sword towards the not-too-distant Imperial City of Beixie.

Out of a total of eight Sword Saints in the Shangguan family, only Shangguan Yun managed to escape. The remaining Great Sword Masters, each like a dog that had lost its home, fled with their tails between their legs.

Chu Feng withdrew the sword formation, collected the Sword Formation Map, and did not pursue the fleeing enemies.

On the ground, bodies were scattered all around.

The swords of the five Sword Saints who had been blown up by Chu Feng earlier were all destroyed, turned into scrap metal.

But the swords of the two who were killed afterward remained intact.

At the level of a Sword Saint, the treasure swords they wielded were at least Low-grade Divine Weapons.

If Chu Feng had enough divine weapons, he wouldn’t need four people to set up the Small Extermination Immortal Sword Formation; he alone would have been enough.

These two divine weapons were both Low-grade Divine Weapons.

Chu Feng was not courteous; after collecting them, he immediately wrapped them in Sword Qi and began refining them.

Refining ordinary divine weapons was relatively much simpler.
