Chapter 153
Thousands of years after he achieved physical sanctification, a Thousand-Faced Strange Fox had actually reappeared in the mortal realm. And it was being used by a little brat from later generations.
The Thousand-Faced Strange Fox wore that exaggerated, ferocious smile on its face. Eyes full of pure disdain.
After having its true form revealed, it instantly transformed into a wisp of red mist and completely drifted away. Right before vanishing, it didn’t forget to leave behind a mocking, teasing sneer.
"Idiot! Idiot!"
The mocking voice lingered around the Evergreat Sword Ancestor’s ears. Refusing to disperse for a long time.
"This is outrageous..."
"Little brat, you insult this old man too much!"
However, just as the Evergreat Sword Ancestor flew into a humiliated rage and abruptly turned around, he saw Alex’s true body standing right behind him.
Wearing a faint smile, and holding the Rakshasa Demon Umbrella. The center of the umbrella pointing directly at him.
"Senior, you are far too arrogant."
"Rakshasa Soul Suction!"
Alex poured his spiritual energy into it. The Rakshasa Demon Umbrella instantly burst forth with a tyrannical suction force. Completely enveloping the Evergreat Sword Ancestor within it.
This was another ancestral Supreme-tier technique of the Hale family.
The Rakshasa Soul-Extinguishing Technique. The formidable aspect of this cultivation method was that it could bypass the physical body and directly attack the opponent’s soul.
Using it to deal with a spirit body like the Evergreat Sword Ancestor was simply a match made in heaven.
"Little brat, don’t look down on this old man!" The Evergreat Sword Ancestor’s eyes widened in fury. He waved his hand, wanting to break free from the shackles of the suction force.
But immediately after, his expression changed. Pure panic.
"I... I can’t move?!"
"That is natural." Alex laughed cheerfully.
"If your true body had descended, I naturally wouldn’t be your match."
"But a mere spirit body actually dares to act so arrogantly."
"Senior, you are truly looking down far too much on the master of the current world’s number one Saint Lineage."
The next second, Alex’s gaze turned chilling. The Rakshasa Demon Umbrella in his palm spun rapidly.
Even though the Evergreat Sword Ancestor exerted all his strength, he fundamentally could not break free.
He could only watch helplessly as his Vault of Divine Mirror and Vault of Divine Magatama were forcibly sucked away. Landing squarely in Alex’s hands.
Feeling the tyrannical spiritual energy contained within these two treasures, Alex’s eyes practically shot beams of brilliant light.
"Good stuff. Truly good stuff."
These two treasures had never actually appeared in the original novel. Even the Evergreat Sword Ancestor himself didn’t have any actual screentime in the original plot.
He merely existed within the narrator’s exposition. When introducing the origins of the Vault of Divine Blade Heart, he was mentioned in a couple of sentences.
That was it.
Obtaining this unexpected harvest filled Alex with overwhelming pleasant surprise.
Both were High-Grade Saint-tier artifacts. The Vault of Divine Mirror possessed a variety of practical and formidable functions, Immobilization, teleportation, revealing true forms, marking targets.
Its most powerful aspect was that the space within the mirror connected to all realms. It could ascend to the heavens or descend into the earth, capable of virtually anything.
And the Vault of Divine Magatama not only possessed earth-shattering offensive power capable of slaughtering a city in an instant.
It also possessed a formidable blood-sucking function. It could heal the user’s own injuries by extracting the lifespan of their enemies.
If he added the Vault of Divine World-Destroying Sword copied via the Asura Path, that meant on top of already mastering three elemental technique, he now possessed the entirety of the Evergreat Sword Ancestor’s ultimate abilities.
"Little brat, this old man advises you. It is best if you return these treasures." The Evergreat Sword Ancestor narrowed his eyes. His voice vicious.
"These items should not exist in this world."
"If your greed acts up and you insist on possessing them, be careful that playing with fire doesn’t burn yourself to ashes."
"Senior, are you threatening me?" Alex shrugged and smiled.
"You probably don’t know this, but what I hate the most is being threatened."
"Then let me personally test whether playing with fire will actually burn me to ashes."
He narrowed his eyes slightly. One magatama in each hand. A tyrannical sword intent permeated from within his body. Subsequently condensing into physical form, transforming into countless jade swords.
It looked almost exactly identical to the scene where the Evergreat Sword Ancestor annihilated Arcan just moments ago.
"Vault of Divine Magatama, move!"
Alex pushed with both palms. The sky-filling jade swords poured out completely. Like a violent storm and torrential rain. Like a catastrophic flood and ferocious beasts.
They instantly swallowed the Evergreat Sword Ancestor.
"Ahhhh!"
Under the indiscriminate bombardment, burst after burst of shrill, miserable screams. Practically shattering the eardrums of Vincent and the others below. Plunging their hearts into absolute despair.
A moment later, the thousands of jade swords completely exploded upon the Evergreat Sword Ancestor’s body.
His originally distinct golden-light body became ethereal and illusory. Fading until almost non-existent.
Only a single head remained somewhat clear. He was panting heavily, continuously coughing up golden blood.
"Little brat, your courage and your methods fill this old man with the utmost admiration."
"But why did you have to come and find trouble with the Divine Blade Sect?"
"There is no why." Alex shrugged and laughed.
"Or rather, there is no special reason."
"It just happened to be the Divine Blade Sect, that’s all."
The Evergreat Sword Ancestor froze. A look of terror revealing itself in his eyes.
As a Saint, he was supposed to be a supreme, peerless existence. But at this very moment, he was thoroughly intimidated by the domineering and evil aura radiating from Alex, trembling uncontrollably.
"It seems the cycle of Destiny... ultimately cannot be reversed by human power."
"The Divine Blade Sect... is doomed."
After leaving behind this profoundly desolate and sorrowful lament, the Evergreat Sword Ancestor transformed into golden mist. Thoroughly dissipating with the wind.
Listening to the echoing voice resonating through the starry night sky, the faces of every single person on Sunblaze Peak turned ashen as death.
The Divine Blade Sect is doomed.
This was the final sentence the Ancestor left them. At the same time, it was the final summary of their fate.
