Chapter 1424: Onlookers

“Help us!” An immense sense of horror overwhelmed their hearts as the smell of death drew closer. Lin Saint could no longer control himself and he screamed.

This cry for help revealed a point. He and Zhou Saint were allies who had agreed to attack the Peach Garden together.

It was a planned move for Zhou Saint to force Lin Saint to make a move outside the Peach Garden back then.

Qin Yu frowned and coldness filled his eyes. There was another important piece of information that he obtained.

There was a mastermind behind the two Saints…whoever this was, he was very powerful to be able to control two Saints.

A sudden thought crossed Qin Yu’s mind and this made him shudder. A Ruler! Only someone as powerful as a Ruler would be able to do this.

He breathed in deeply to calm himself down. It was too late for him to turn back even if he knew that there was possibly a Ruler controlling the whole thing. Qin Yu could not do a u-turn right now.

Firstly, killing the two Saints would serve as a warning for others and indirectly protect the Peach Garden.

Secondly, the Ruler of the Vast Brightness World could not reveal himself and there must be a reason for this. The Spring Master brushed over the topic before but Qin Yu could confirm it as the Ruler would not show himself unless truly necessary.

Most important was the third point. After Bounded Zero Place, Qin Yu knew that he had someone supporting him. This party was a true Ruler.

She might be even more mysterious, ancient and powerful than the Ruler of Vast Brightness World.

Of course, it would not be appropriate to call this woman old. As such, Qin Yu immediately cast this thought aside. He did not know if the Ruler did something to him to understand his thoughts.

After all, she said that she had invested a lot in him and there were things that she would have to leave to him. She definitely would not ignore him.

Either way, Qin Yu was slightly worried about Zhou Saint and Lin Saint, but it was not much.

At the most, they would fight it to the end!

The coldness in Qin Yu’s eyes turned darker and he was filled with killing intent.

With this suspicion of a Ruler backing the two Saints, he needed to kill the Saints decisively. He would not give them any chance to struggle and fight for their lives.

He triggered an attack and the booming sounds in the heavens and earth grew more intense. Flames burned violently and a piercing shock wave came as the meteorites sliced through the air.

The bone giant roared and the meteorites shattered. Destructive energy burst out and it caused a wave of power to sweep in all directions.

In that instant, a shroud of energy descended, covering the two Saints within.

If there had been only three or five…even ten or eight meteorites, the two Saints were confident that they could defend themselves against them.

However, the sky looked like a large burning hole. Countless meteorites crossed the air, dragging with them long tails of light.

The distorted rules of the heavens and earth had Lin Saint’s Great Dao as their root and they were still in place. The rules were pierced through by the meteors but as long as Lin Saint remained alive, they would remain there.

In other words, every time a meteorite struck a rule, it would cause damage to Lin Saint.

Small things built up and once any item reached a certain level, it would become terrifying.

A True Saint’s Great Dao was immeasurably powerful but it could not sustain damage repeatedly. Lin Saint’s expression was as white as a sheet and it revealed an obvious scenario. His body was falling apart with each strike of the meteorites.

Unfortunately, the only thing he could do now was to grit his teeth and tolerate the onslaught. If he fell, Zhou Saint would not be able to survive against Qin Yu by himself.

The massive giant’s body twitched as it was smashed into the ground repeatedly. Numerous deep cracks appeared on the ground and stretched out in all directions.

These cracks were not just on the ground. There were fragmentations in the giant’s body as well.

Bright red blood seeped out from these cracks. As the blood flowed down, it looked like tiny blood rivers.

Inside the blood rivers, numerous painful faces appeared. These faces cracked and disappeared very quickly.

The giant bent over slowly and his large, massive legs could no longer take the flurry of attacks. Finally, it swayed from side to side before kneeling down.

Crack crack –

More cracks appeared on its bones.

This was the maximum that it could take.

However, no reinforcements arrived for them and the two Saints were heartlessly abandoned.

Lin Saint raised his hands to the sky and as his lips vibrated, he cried, “Great Stars!”

The Vanquished Nation’s sky was dyed a deep red. Slowly, the flickers of stars started to appear and soon, a mass of stars had gathered. As though they were being attracted, they covered the giant’s body, providing a layer of armor to it.

As expected of a True Saint, this was what he was capable of. Unless the opponent was a Ruler where the gap in power was insurmountable, it would not be so easy for the opponent to kill him speedily even if he had the upper hand.

The two Saints could not run nor could they avoid the storm of meteors that was upon them. The only thing they could do now was to buy time.

Such a terrifying Divine Way certainly had a limit to it. Perhaps the rain of meteors would stop in the next instant and the sky would no longer burn. Perhaps ‘they’ would see a chance to offer help and send the two Saints reinforcements.

Despite the fact that no one predicted this, they could only create a chance for themselves by resisting. If they gave up, death would be the only way out.

Qin Yu knew what the two Saints were thinking. He smirked and a cold expression crossed his face.

The Royal Attack could control stars in the sky. The meteor rain proved that. Although Lin Saint had witnessed the power of the meteor attack, he still called forth the stars and used them as armor for the giant.

This was suicidal for them. Lin Saint must have lost his mind. The only other possibility was that Lin Saint thought that the ‘meteor rain’ was the limit of Qin Yu’s capabilities.

Qin Yu stepped out. Raising his hand, he curled his five fingers into a grip and grabbed above him.

“Royal Attack!”

His deep voice rang out and the stars started to tremble. Lin Saint’s eyes widened and he spat out blood continuously.

He was in complete disbelief, never expecting that his own Divine Way would be broken down so easily.

No, ‘broken down’ was not a good way to express what happened. It was more accurate to say that Qin Yu stole control of his own Divine Way.

A mass of stars peeled away from the sky and formed a large, bright pike.

Shoosh –

Without any delay, the Star Pike pierced forward. It smashed into the giant in a flash.

The collision of the Star Pike against the Star Armor lasted only a second before the giant cried painfully. A loud boom came from the Star Pike as it penetrated the giant and pinned it to the ground.

……

After the two Saints opened the Vanquished Nation Gate and escaped into it, they exposed their own situation to other eyes.

These eyes belonged to other True Saints from the shore of the Vast Brightness World. They were going to decide their subsequent actions with regards to the Peach Garden through the outcome of this battle.

By seeing how Qin Yu could easily crush the two Saints without giving them any way out, all the Saints became nervous. No one had expected the strength that Qin Yu possessed!

His powers were enough to shake the world and protect the Peach Garden. Even if the Spring Master had passed, the Peach Garden would remain safe.

If the Saints’ only objective was to verify Qin Yu’s strength, they had already obtained their answer. However, the number of observers did not decrease. They continued to stare at the Vanquished Nation, waiting for the situation to unfold.

They also guessed that someone was hiding behind the two Saints. Someone who could control two Saints….tsk, this thought alone was frightening.

A calamity to the world was here and as True Saints from the shore, their senses were sharp and they picked out strange happenings.

Was the hidden power behind the two Saints ‘them’? If that really was the case, ‘they’ would probably not let the two Saints die.

As such, Qin Yu needed to go through another test before the matter would really come to a close.

This test was not going to be easy. Despite being someone who seemed so strong, Qin Yu might even die.

After all, ‘they’ also had a Ruler backing them!

This was the thing that all the Saints were waiting for…

Right at that moment, everyone’s eyes swept in one direction and their expressions turned serious.

It was here!

……

Qin Yu also sensed the powerful aura that came like a mountain descending. A huge pressure crushed the air and covered the sun. It made the entire area feel dark and oppressive!

Kneeling on the ground, the giant’s body was full of cracks. Within it, the two Saints’ eyes widened and they cried, “Save us! Save us!”

The True Saint who arrived was wrapped entirely in a black robe. A terrifying aura around him surged forward instantly and he said, “A great calamity is about to befall the Vast Brightness World. No True Saint shall be sacrificed…”

Before he could finish, Qin Yu cut him off. His eyes were cold and they looked like sharp arrows that would pierce through the man, “So you are the person they were waiting for? Very good!”

He did not give any chance for the True Saint to speak before he attacked. He turned his palm around and gripped. This action seemed to be grabbing something beyond the Vanquished Nation Gate.

Boom –

A destructive aura burst out like an erupting volcano from Qin Yu’s body. It spread in all directions and covered everyone.

The True Saint’s expression darkened and he froze. His eyes were burning with killing intent but he started to tremble.

His first thought was that he could not take the blow!

The second thought…death…

As the aura washed over him, this True Saint who looked ready to kill suddenly felt the strong threat of death. He wondered if Qin Yu would even give him a chance to speak or if he would attack in the next moment.

Shoosh!

The True Saint backed away quickly, ripping apart the space in the Vanquished Nation. He disappeared in front of everyone.

Silence engulfed the world!

All the onlookers were stunned and filled with disbelief during this silence.
