Chapter 942: Yata Mirror
The immortal sword, Skycaller, should have been a straight, unbroken line, but within the warped space, it appeared displaced, like light refracted upon water.
The Imperial Preceptor exploited this distortion, replicating countless indistinguishable copies of the Skycaller. Even a master swordsman at the Pseudo-Immortal level would gasp in awe that the Taiyi Shadow Splitting Technique could be applied this way, brought to its ultimate peak. There was even a trace of the legendary Heavenly Blade within it.
In an instant, over a dozen Skycallers manifested, striking from every direction toward Himiko-no-Mikoto.
By now, Tsukuyomi-no-Mikoto and Susanoo-no-Mikoto had become little more than Himiko’s vassals, irrelevant in the greater clash.
The might of this strike far surpassed Sage Qingwei. Even setting aside the difference between immortal and semi-immortal objects, the Imperial Preceptor’s comprehension of space and swordsmanship was far beyond the reach of the young Sage Qingwei even though the latter could wield the strength of an Immortal.
This was the kind of experience and foundation that Qi Xuansu yearned for.
A soon-to-be First-Tribulation Immortal’s mastery of his own strength had reached its very pinnacle.
Even Himiko, who had combined the incarnations of the Three Noble Children into Immortal-level strength, dared not meet this strike head-on with her golden body. She could only alter the rules of her divine domain.
Up became down, left became right, front turned to back, and yin swapped with yang.
She was the sovereign of this domain, so there was nothing she could not change.
Thus, the many Skycallers struck only empty space, splitting the seas, severing the skies, piercing through mirages, and rending this world into shattered fragments. At times, fleeting glimpses of the true world beyond the divine kingdom could be seen.
As long as Himiko, who was the core of this divine kingdom, remained unharmed, these fractures healed in an instant.
