Chapter 1432: She Really Came
Listening to Jiang Yuan's excited voice and seeing the shocked expressions on the faces of the seniors, everyone became even more curious.
"Ninth Heaven Sword Maiden?"
"I've never heard of that..."
"I've never heard of such a title either. Could she be a powerhouse from the same era as these seniors?"
Hearing this, Lei Qianjue and the others waved their hands in shock.
"We dare not, we dare not!"
"How could we be worthy of being mentioned in the same breath as the Ninth Heaven Sword Maiden?"
"We've only heard some stories about her. We've long admired her but have never had the fortune to meet her!"
Their reverent attitude made everyone even more curious.
Jiang Yuan also nodded excitedly, his eyes filled with emotion.
"That's right..."
"What you all say is true."
"When the Ninth Heaven Sword Maiden made her name across the starry seas, we had just entered the Saint Realm and were insignificant. We only knew of her extraordinary prowess through various legends. She was the pioneer who brought glory to Cloud Star!"
"To be honest, several epochs ago, I was fortunate enough to witness her in action. Though it was just a brief encounter, I benefited greatly from it. Since then, my understanding of the Great Dao has deepened, allowing me to reach a higher level."
"I never expected that this great figure would reappear in the world. This is truly a blessing for our human race!"
"To witness the Ninth Heaven Sword Maiden's grace again today makes our slumber of several epochs worth it!"
As soon as his emotional words fell, the other seniors were also deeply moved.
"Elder Jiang speaks the truth!"
"After several epochs, we can still see this great figure. We have no regrets in this life!"
"With her appearance, our human race has hope in this battle!"
The more the seniors spoke, the more excited they became. Though they were legendary figures who had transcended epochs, at this moment, they looked like fervent juniors, their eyes filled with awe as they gazed at the sky, unable to contain their excitement.
Seeing this, Master Lu and the others couldn't help but feel doubtful.
What kind of existence could make these seniors so excited? How powerful must she have been back then? But now, after so much time has passed, how much of her strength remains?
Can she really defeat that terrifying Demon Lord?
Just as everyone was worriedly looking up.
Yun Yaoyao, who stood quietly in the air, lightly parted her red lips and lowered her gaze.
"Step back."
"Leave this demon to me."
Her voice was icy, yet it carried a confidence that shook everyone!
She was going to face the Demon Lord alone?
Her casual tone made it seem like she was talking about something trivial. Just how strong must she be to treat the Demon Lord with such disdain?
All the human cultivators were wide-eyed in shock, unable to believe their ears and eyes.
Jiang Yuan and the others, however, grew even more excited, constantly urging everyone to step back!
"This great figure is still as cold and jade-like as ever, her invincible demeanor no less than in the past. It's as if I'm seeing that battle from several epochs ago, where she alone with her sword could traverse the starry seas!"
"With her taking action, the outcome of this battle is already decided!"
"Everyone, step back quickly to avoid being caught in the aftermath of the battle!"
An unprecedented battle was about to begin, one that even Master Lu and the others couldn't intervene in. The doubtful crowd had no choice but to follow Jiang Yuan and step back, their eyes filled with tension.
Suddenly.
Both races retreated again, their expressions becoming extremely solemn.
Even though there were no signs of anything unusual in the sky, the atmosphere was incredibly oppressive. Even though there were hundreds of thousands of figures on the ground, a formidable force on any planet, at this moment, they could only cower like ants, looking up at the sky with reverence from a distance.
But whether human or demon, the rest of the crowd's cultivation levels were truly limited.
After staring for a long time, they couldn't see any clues, not even the faint shadows hidden deep within the clouds.
In the depths of the supreme clouds.
Two graceful figures were faintly visible, almost blending into the clouds, calmly observing everything in the dark land. It was unclear how long they had been watching, but they had made no moves.
Only when they saw Yun Yaoyao appear and heard her soft words did one of them smile and turn her head.
"Sixth Junior Sister, you were right. She has finally come."
Hearing this, Mo Tianji's shadow proudly raised her eyes, her beautiful eyes filled with confidence.
"Fifth Senior Sister, you flatter me."
"Recently, my understanding of the Mathematical Dao has deepened. My calculations will not be wrong. Even someone like her, I can calculate clearly."
Su Yunyun nodded with a smile, looking down at the graceful figure below with emotion.
"Since she has awakened and come, this battle should be without a doubt."
"After all, she was one of the sisters who served our master. Her sword skills are unmatched by even ten thousand gods. This little demon is no match for her."
"With her here, we can leave with peace of mind."
As soon as her words fell.
Mo Tianji's shadow also nodded in agreement, closing the notebook in her hands.
In the next moment.
The two shadows dissipated, as if they had never existed.
Below the clouds.
The standoff had lasted for a long time.
Neither side had made a move, but a terrifying pressure had already spread across the heavens and the earth, causing the ground to tremble and crack, and the wind and clouds to churn violently!
The white-clad jade figure still showed no expression, but she exuded an immense pressure, her profound aura making even the Demon Lord wary.
Seeing the sword lightly held in her left hand, he couldn't help but feel a chill!
It was an indescribable sense of crisis, an instinctive feeling of danger. In such a small star system, how could such an existence appear? The more he looked, the more unbelievable it seemed.
His grand plan to dominate the universe hadn't even begun, yet he had already encountered such a formidable enemy. The Demon Lord grew more and more suspicious.
His blood-red eyes flickered uncertainly as he coldly questioned.
"The human race of this star system should not have someone like you!"
"Just who are you?!"
However, his loud voice only met with silence. The other party remained indifferent, as if she had no interest in responding, her cold eyes unchanged.
Her demeanor made it seem as if he wasn't even worth a response.
Instantly.
The Demon Lord's anger flared, and his expression became somewhat unhinged!
"Damn it!"
"A lowly, inferior creature dares to act so arrogantly! I refuse to believe you're as strong as you appear!"
With that, the Demon Lord activated all his demonic energy, unleashing a divine ability!
"Endless Darkness!"
With a roar.
The sky was covered in dark clouds, and pure demonic energy enveloped the heavens like a curtain. Everything in this space seemed to be on the verge of being devoured, the pressure causing the tens of thousands of troops on both sides to turn pale!
Facing the endless darkness, Master Lu and the others looked on in despair, subconsciously clenching their fists and silently praying.
Even.
The high priest hiding above the demon capital trembled as he watched!
"This... this is the Demon Lord's innate divine ability!"
"Once this technique is used, all demonic energy can be summoned by the Demon Lord. In this space, he possesses infinite demonic energy, making him invincible!"
"But this supreme technique consumes a tremendous amount of energy. If used, the Demon Lord's Demonic Origin Dao Embryo might be ruined!"
"I never expected that human woman to be so powerful, forcing the Demon Lord to this extent. To perish under the Demon Lord's divine ability, she truly is a formidable opponent."
"The human race's hidden strength seems even deeper than we imagined..."
As the high priest lamented.
The sky had already turned into endless darkness, and several streams of demonic energy condensed into thousand-foot blades, which then formed a giant demonic hand, charging towards the graceful figure in the air!
Boom!
The terrifying demonic blade was heavy and powerful, instantly creating a sonic boom as it locked onto Yun Yaoyao from all directions!
It seemed she was about to be devoured by the demonic hand!
The Demon Lord's eyes turned sinister, a cruel smile revealing his inner triumph.
But in the next moment.
Yun Yaoyao simply raised her hand and waved, and the terrifying demonic hand dissipated into nothingness!
Instantly.
The human cultivators on the ground were wide-eyed in shock, their faces filled with even greater fervor!
"Holy crap?!"
"This senior is so powerful!"
"With just a wave of her hand, she neutralized such a terrifying attack. Truly worthy of being the Ninth Heaven Sword Maiden!"
The humans were ecstatic, while the demons were trembling in fear.
The high priest's eyes were as wide as saucers, as if he had seen a ghost, and the Demon Lord's breath hitched!
"This!"
With just one move.
The other party hadn't even drawn her sword, nor made any extra movements, yet she had effortlessly dissolved the terrifying attack. The gap in their cultivation was this vast?
Could this woman really be that strong?!
Witnessing this reality.
The Demon Lord was shocked once more, the sense of foreboding growing stronger, making him increasingly anxious!
He quickly attacked again, pouring out all his demonic energy!
This time.
The Demon Lord held nothing back, desperately summoning endless demonic energy. He knew this opponent was strange, the strongest enemy he had ever encountered. Now was a life-or-death moment, and he had to go all out!
With a fierce roar, the Demon Lord's beautiful face began to crack, revealing a black face full of fangs, and his blood-red eyes merged into one!
"Demonic Origin Dao Embryo!"
