Chapter 257: The Witch God’s佩剑

Dongbo Xueying exchanged a few words with the Spider Queen and Qingyan King, stalling for a little time, and already one breath had passed.

“He’s here!” Dongbo Xueying immediately saw, at three hundred miles outside Yifeng City’s airspace, space violently torn open by a massive rift, from which a huge, black warship emerged. On its dark hull were two special characters representing “Chen Jiu.” A furious roar reverberated through the heavens and earth: “Orland! Do you truly intend to exterminate our race?”

“Hmph, after all these years, haven’t you humans always sought to eradicate my Monster Race? Too bad, you humans still lack the strength!” Elder Orland coldly laughed. He appeared to have meticulously prepared; just as Chen Jiu’s warship tore through space and arrived, he completed the final formation.

Whoosh.

Elder Orland suddenly split into two, another figure materializing beside him—his magical clone.

“Xia Clan! Today, watch helplessly as your greatest ever prodigy dies before your very eyes!” Elder Orland laughed aloud, stepping into the sealed, two-hundred-mile restricted zone. His magical clone remained outside, manipulating and sustaining the massive formation.

Layer upon layer of formations, devised through discussions between the Witch God and the Great Demon God, were extraordinary and unfathomable. Clearly, the Witch God and Great Demon God had not pinned their hopes on killing Dongbo Xueying within a single breath. Thus, they preferred to set more formations, and their preparations this time were thorough—determined to slay Dongbo Xueying at all costs!

“Attack!”

The roar of Palace Master Chen shook heaven and earth.

From the bow of Chen Jiu’s warship shot forth a column of bluish-white lightning, instantly darkening the skies and earth. It became the most dazzling spectacle in the world, savagely striking the vast Thunderfire Formation. Layer upon layer of formations intertwined seamlessly, dark clouds swirling high above, continuously accumulating and nurturing lightning.

After this terrifying lightning column struck, most of its power dispersed, while a portion was redirected by the Thunderfire Formation into the dark clouds above, further intensifying the stored lightning within.

…

Inside the two-hundred-mile spherical space that was sealed off from the world.

Here, only Elder Orland, Qingyan King, the Spider Queen, and Dongbo Xueying remained.

“Dongbo Xueying, to deal with you, the great Witch God specially bestowed a treasure that seals and isolates worlds,” Elder Orland sneered. “Right now, this area is completely cut off from the outside world. Our space here is like an independent small world. Furthermore, the great Witch God has paid a heavy price. You will die today, without a doubt.”

“Is that so?” Dongbo Xueying continued stalling for time.

“Begin!” Elder Orland commanded coldly.

Instantly, the purple-haired woman transformed into a giant spider the size of an ordinary civilian house. Its entire body was black, with eight slender legs tinged purple. Its pair of eyes gazed coldly at Dongbo Xueying. Then, numerous threads shot from its rear, a total of sixteen white threads, each about finger-thick, formed by countless finer threads intricately entwined, following natural mysteries.

The sixteen threads instantly slashed across the sky, stretching over dozens of miles, enveloping Dongbo Xueying.

Dongbo Xueying’s expression changed slightly. He absolutely couldn’t be entangled by the Spider Queen’s threads—if caught, escape would be impossible.

Whoosh.

Dongbo Xueying’s figure twisted and vanished instantly, entering the Void Realm, making those white threads unable to ensnare him.

“Hmph.” Although he could only traverse within the Void Realm of this sealed two-hundred-mile world, it was sufficient.

“Of the three, only Elder Orland is a Transcendent Magus. He must be killed first.” Dongbo Xueying immediately attempted to teleport within the Void Realm, aiming to reappear beside Elder Orland.

However, as Elder Orland shouted “Act!”, a peculiar longsword already appeared before him.

This was a black longsword, its hilt resembling coiled venomous snakes, its blade nearly one and a half meters long, faintly marked with blood spots, causing the entire sword to emit countless wails.

“Crack!” Elder Orland’s left hand also produced a scroll emitting endless black mist. He instantly tore the scroll, and the black mist surged into this strange longsword. Immediately, the sword radiated an extremely terrifying pressure, which instantly covered the entire sealed two-hundred-mile world, even permeating the Void Realm.

“Buzz—”

At this moment, the entire small world seemed to tremble, and space solidified.

Not only the real world, but even the Void Realm’s space was frozen, preventing Dongbo Xueying, who attempted to teleport, from doing so!

“This…” Dongbo Xueying’s face changed drastically.

“Dongbo Xueying, this is the Witch God’s personal sword! Accompanying the Witch God for countless ages, you should feel honored to die by the Witch God’s blade!” Elder Orland’s voice echoed within the sealed two-hundred-mile world.

Dongbo Xueying’s heart sank.

The pressure of this Witch God Sword was terrifyingly immense—it was the most terrifying divine treasure he had ever encountered, far surpassing any divine treasures he had previously seen. Even the Xia Clan’s strongest divine treasure, “Master Xue,” might not match this Witch God Sword! Moreover, Elder Orland had seemingly crushed a mysterious scroll earlier, enhancing the Witch God Sword.

“This Witch God Sword, before even being swung, has frozen both the real world and the Void Realm,” Dongbo Xueying shuddered.

Some powerful deities could attack the Void Realm.

This Witch God Sword… had already begun to display some divine techniques.

“Whoosh!” Dongbo Xueying immediately flew at high speed within the Void Realm, approaching Elder Orland, and instantly flicked his wrist, releasing two streaks of light into the real world.

They were the Golden Man and the Azure Guard!

“Kill Elder Orland!” Dongbo Xueying understood that Elder Orland was the most dangerous. Without him, the Witch God Sword might even become uncontrollable. Such terrifying divine treasures demanded extremely high requirements from their wielders. Just like Master Xue… only when Yu Jingqiu became a Demigod could she use it.

“Hmph!”

Qingyan King beside Elder Orland snorted, holding a shield in one hand, forcefully pushing forward. Boom—space around seemed to ripple like water, as if the entire surrounding space was pushed forward, pressing toward the Golden Man and the Azure Guard.

Qingyan King, ranked fourth on the Demigod List, had already condensed his Divine Core! His close combat was extremely terrifying; his main task today was to protect Elder Orland.

“Chi chi chi~~~” Dense white threads immediately covered the surroundings, including around Elder Orland.

A streak of light flew from Elder Orland’s wrist, transforming into a cold, black-robed woman standing beside him—a divine warrior from the Divine Realm.

Seeing this, Dongbo Xueying’s heart sank.

The Spider Queen, Qingyan King, and a divine warrior from the Divine Realm simultaneously protecting Elder Orland? Remember, Elder Orland had cultivated the True Meaning of Life, already possessing an immortal body, making him extremely difficult to kill. And now, protected by three mighty experts?

“Dongbo Xueying, the Witch God Sword can strike any world. Whether you hide in shadows or the Void Realm, you cannot escape the Witch God Sword’s pursuit. Die!” Elder Orland manipulated the Witch God Sword, which, with terrifying pressure, crushed both the real and the Void Realm. As the Witch God Sword flew, it actually entered the Void Realm directly.

Elder Orland closed his eyes.

He couldn’t enter the Void Realm by himself, but now his consciousness was channeled through the Witch God Sword, faintly sensing that strange, mysterious world. Although Elder Orland didn’t know it was the Void Realm, it didn’t hinder him from attacking.

Through the Witch God Sword, he could sense a life presence within that mysterious world—that was Dongbo Xueying’s life force.

“What world is that? My power must attack through the Witch God Sword to reach that world! In that world, controlling the Witch God Sword becomes much more difficult, probably allowing me to use only sixty percent of its power. Fortunately, this was foreseen by the Witch God and the Great Demon God. This Dongbo Xueying is too terrifying. How old is he? If his cultivation level increases further, killing him would be nearly impossible.” Elder Orland’s killing intent intensified.

“Die!” He manipulated the Witch God Sword, charging directly.

Dongbo Xueying’s expression drastically changed when the peculiar Witch God Sword directly entered the Void Realm, altering his face.

He had long known that some extremely formidable existences among Demigods might be able to attack the Void Realm, but the Witch God Sword’s entire entry still oppressed him.

“Boom boom~~~”

The Witch God Sword crushed forward.

Within the Void Realm, space was completely frozen. As it approached, invisible forces bound and oppressed him, greatly reducing his flying and movement speed. The blood spots on the sword’s surface emitted countless wails, making Dongbo Xueying’s heart tremble. He even had a feeling—if he were touched by this Witch God Sword… the result would be unbearable!
