Chapter 1578: Life Exchange
Translator: Legge
Su Zimo stood on the spot motionlessly.
When the Patriarch of Hidden Death Sect released his Invisibility, he closed his eyes and even blocked his five senses!
‘That was the only way his spirit perception could sense the existence of the Patriarch of Hidden Death Sect!
Actually, he could also see through the tracks of the Patriarch of Hidden Death Sect using the Nether Glow Eye.
However, even if he could see through it, it would be difficult for him to react.
Not only did the Patriarch of Hidden Death Sect conceal himself, his movement technique was extremely fast as he lingered around Su Zimo indeterminately!
Su Zimo’s Nether Glow Eye could not keep up with the speed of the Patriarch of Hidden Death Sect at all.
He could only locate the Patriarch of Hidden Death Sect with his spirit perception!
However, that was not enough.
Mahayana Patriarchs possessed the divine power of Blood Rebirth. It was extremely difficult to kill Mahayana Patriarchs.
As for the Patriarch of Hidden Death Sect, he would definitely be even more wary if he could not kill right away!
It would be even more difficult to kill after the first attempt.
Therefore, to Su Zimo, there would only be a single chance to attack!
In such a tense and dangerous battlefield, Su Zimo’s mind was calm instead, like an ancient well that was peaceful and emotionless.
‘The Patriarch of Hidden Death Sect did not appear.
Su Zimo’s eyes were closed and he was motionless as well.
Although everything seemed calm on the surface, everyone knew that there was a turbulent undercurrent beneath the calmness.
Once it was released, raging tides would definitely be stirred!
‘The atmosphere on the battlefield was turning increasingly tense!
Even the living beings of the ten thousand races that were watching instinctively held their breaths and refused to blink.
There was a high chance that life and death would be decided in the blink of an eye!
Unknowingly, the fight between the Primordial Six Races and the human race had gradually stopped as well.
Both parties separated and watched Su Zimo on the battlefield.
At that moment, even though monkey and the others were extremely worried, they did not dare to advance rashly nor make a single sound for fear of affecting Su Zimo!
At this moment, a single moment of distraction could result in death!
Time slowly passed.
Half an hour had passed.
The Patriarch of Hidden Death Sect did not appear nor did he attack.
‘That half hour was an immense torture for the living beings of the ten thousand races present, as though half a year had passed!
That was the terror of Hidden Death Sect.
Assassins of Hidden Death Sect were extremely patient.
As long as they did not appear, one had to be on guard without letting up at all!
The Patriarch of Hidden Death Sect seemed to have left.
On the battlefield, Su Zimo’s eyes were closed, as though he had fallen asleep.
‘When even the living beings of the ten thousand races were getting impatient, Su Zimo’s heart skipped a beat!
Suddenly, ripples appeared on that water surface of the ancient well.
Aslender sword appeared diagonally behind Su Zimo and stabbed towards his head silently!
The Patriarch of Hidden Death Sect had finally attacked!
Of course, by the time the living beings of the ten thousand races caught sight of that strike, the tip of the sword was already on Su Zimo’s head!
Suddenly!
Ina flash, a palm appeared on the wrist of the Patriarch of Hidden Death Sect that was gripping his sword. It was strong and grabbed his wrist tightly!
The thin sword had already touched Su Zimo’s scalp and blood even flowed out, but it could not push down.
Hidden Death Sect specialized in assassination.
However, their physiques and bloodlines were not that strong.
Even Mahayana Patriarchs of Hidden Death Sect could not compare to Su Zimo’s Green Lotus True Body in terms of physique and bloodline.
“Ah!
“Desolate Martial managed to defend against the killing move of the Patriarch of Hidden Death Sect!”
Awave of shock and astonishment could be heard from the crowd.
A look of surprise flashed through the eyes of the Patriarch of Hidden Death Sect as well.
Even he had not expected that Su Zimo would be able to see through his tracks and prevent his killing move!
Su Zimo had the advantage and he had countless methods to severely injure the Patriarch of Hidden Death Sect at such a close distance!
In fact, he could snap the Patriarch of Hidden Death Sect’s wrist if he exerted strength.
However, none of those methods could kill a Mahayana Patriarch completely!
He only hada single chance!
If he missed it and allowed the Patriarch of Hidden Death Sect to escape, it would be a huge threat to him or everyone else!
“Kill!”
Su Zimo’s gaze burned brightly as he suddenly shouted. Gripping the Patriarch of Hidden Death Sect’s wrist tightly with his right hand to prevent him from escaping, he conjured a sword art with his left hand and slashed towards the latter!
“Not good!”
The Patriarch of Hidden Death Sect was alarmed and his pupils constricted.
Buzz!
Ablinding light burst forth from Su Zimo’s sword finger.
It was not a single sword qiat all.
It was 108,000!
In order to kill the Patriarch of Hidden Death Sect, Su Zimo did not show any mercy and 108,000 sword qi enveloped the Patriarch!
Psst!
All the living beings of the ten thousand races gasped in shock!
The concentrated sword qi was enough to slice the entire void into pieces, let alone a person.
Those sword qi could destroy all life within the body of the Patriarch of Hidden Death Sect!
The prerequisite of Blood Rebirth was for one’s Essence Spirit to survive.
Furthermore, one had to possess a drop of blood that possessed lifeforce.
The release of the 108,000 sword qi was enough to destroy every single drop of blood and even the Essence Spirit of the Patriarch of Hidden Death Sect!
It was too ruthless!
‘The living beings of the ten thousand races grimaced with shock in their eyes.
‘The attack of the Patriarch of Hidden Death Sect missed and Su Zimo seized the opening to release such a terrifying attack!
He did not give the Patriarch of Hidden Death Sect a second chance to attack!
“Kill!”
Right then, a resolute look flashed through the eyes of the Patriarch of Hidden Death Sect as he growled deeply as well.
He ignored the 108,000 incoming sword qi and extended his other hand. A cold light burst forth from his sleeves and entered Su Zimo’s chest!
It was the second sword of the Patriarch of Hidden Death Sect!
Both parties suffered losses!
Cries of surprises came from the crowd.
Or rather, this could no longer be considered as an internecine outcome—they were exchanging lives instead!
The Patriarch of Hidden Death Sect knew that he would not be able to escape death.
However, even if he had to die, he had to drag Su Zimo down with him!
‘The two of them were way too close.
Su Zimo held the wrist of the Patriarch of Hidden Death Sect in his right hand and released the Heaven Slaying Sword Qi with his left. He did not have time to defend against the sword at all.
When the 108,000 Heaven Slaying Sword Qi descended on the Patriarch of Hidden Death Sect, the latter’s sword stabbed his chest as well!
Buzz!
‘The sword quivered in his chest and released streams of extremely sharp sword intent, as though they wanted to tear everything apart!
This was the final attack of a Mahayana Patriarch before his death—the Patriarch of Hidden Death Sect released his full power without holding back at all!
Swoosh!
Agreen streak of light flew out from Su Zimo’s head.
‘The Creation Lotus Platform protected the black-haired Essence Spirit and burst forth, escaping from the battlefield rapidly.
Poof! Poof!
The moment the Creation Lotus Platform left, Su Zimo’s Green Lotus True Body was sliced into pieces by the final slash of the Patriarch of Hidden Death Sect, turning into a pile of flesh.
His organs were sliced into pieces and fresh blood dripped in a terrifying sight!
However, it was even worse for the Patriarch of Hidden Death Sect.
He was turned into a blood mist by the 108,000 Heaven Slaying Sword Qi!
