Chapter 1651 (Raw 1633): The Sword General
Since the Divine Shield Army was approaching, the Skeleton Dragon Star Venerate was already no longer in a mood to continue fighting. He could not defeat the other party in the first place.
Right now, all the Skeleton Dragon Star Venerate had to do was flee from the Savage Blood Star Venerate and meet up with the Divine Shield Army’s General Jian.
At that time, the situation would change.
The Savage Blood Star Venerate guessed what the other party was planning. He said coldly, “Trying to escape me? You can forget about doing that without paying a price.”
“Haha! So what? In any case, you will definitely die today. The Savage Blood Pirate Group will become history!”
The Skeleton Dragon Star Venerate laughed maniacally; he had never feared the other party. He launched a fierce counterattack, seeking an opportunity to escape.
Not being able to defeat the Savage Blood Star Venerate was a fact. On the other hand, the Skeleton Dragon Star Venerate did not think that he would have any problem leaving.
However, the Savage Blood Star Venerate was stronger than the Skeleton Dragon Star Venerate expected. Even after several rounds of attacks, sending out all sorts of killing moves, the Skeleton Dragon Star Venerate still could not break out.
As the Savage Blood Star Venerate held his large scarlet saber, he smiled evilly. “Skeleton Dragon Star Venerate, it looks like you might not have a chance to escape tonight.”
The Skeleton Dragon Star Venerate appeared slightly pale as he wiped off the blood at the corner of his lips. Then he said, “Middle-stage Starry Sky Stage. Unexpectedly, you actually broke through.”
“There are many things that you cannot imagine. Just obediently hand over the Saber Technique’s manual. If we work together, we can break out of the Divine Shield Army’s encirclement.”
The Savage Blood Star Venerate remained calm, not panicked by the fact that he was surrounded by the Divine Shield Army.
“You can keep on dreaming!”
Then, as if the Skeleton Dragon Star Venerate had come to a decision, he tossed away the sword in his hand and took out a saber.
“Weren’t you very interested in the Saber Technique’s manual? Today, I will show you the might of the Mahāmāyā Abstinence Violation Saber Technique.”
Suddenly, the surroundings fell silent.
The Skeleton Dragon Star Venerate abruptly gathered all his scattered aura in the clouds into his body, steadily expending Soul Energy.
He seemed to be storing up some kind of energy, continuously accumulating it.
“This is...”
The Savage Blood Star Venerate’s expression wavered as he changed to a two-handed grip. Then, with a cold shout, he prepared to interrupt the Skeleton Dragon Star Venerate’s move.
Normally, the Savage Blood Star Venerate would not mind taking a look at the Mahāmāyā Abstinence Violation Saber Technique. However, right now, there were strong enemies coming from behind.
Clearly, this was not the right time.
“Whoosh!”
Upon seeing the Savage Blood Star Venerate charge over, the Skeleton Dragon Star Venerate shouted and unleashed his attack early.
Suddenly, a golden swastika shot out of the Skeleton Dragon Star Venerate’s forehead and lit up the area within five thousand kilometers.
“Mahāmāyā Abstinence Violation Saber Technique, Breaking the Mundane!”
In that instant, a mysterious, twisting force field appeared around the Skeleton Dragon Star Venerate.
The Savage Blood Star Venerate, who was within the force field, strangely recalled the times before he became a pirate, the hidden-away events that were the most deeply impressed in his heart from when he was still in the mundane world.
That winter, he was merely thirty years old. He recalled that that winter was especially cold. Amid the cold wind, he begged at the roadside. It was so cold that his entire body went numb.
Just when he thought that he would die, a woman appeared and took off the fur coat she wore. He opened his eyes with much difficulty, wanting to see that woman’s appearance clearly. However, he could not do so at all.
All he saw was a vague smiling face brushing by him.
“Whoosh!”
Just at this moment, something strange happened. A gigantic Buddha stood in the sky, bathed in divine light. It glared as a Buddhist monk’s knife released a saber light over thirty kilometers tall.
[TL Note: The Buddhist monk’s knife is more of a generic category and can come in many styles. It is normally wielded by monks and is a weapon that is not meant for killing. It can also be used for suicide in desperate situations, allowing one’s body to remain intact at the time of death.]
The saber light directly pierced the woman’s chest, and boundless blood spurted out.
“No!”
The Savage Blood Star Venerate felt an intense pain in his heart that startled him to his senses. Suddenly, he discovered that the saber that the Skeleton Dragon Star Venerate held was only two centimeters away from his own chest.
A gigantic Buddha stood behind the Skeleton Dragon Star Venerate, forming a hand seal with the left hand and holding a saber with the right. The Buddha’s saber light merged with the saber in the Skeleton Dragon Star Venerate’s hand.
“You are seeking death!”
The Savage Blood Star Venerate suddenly turned incredibly furious. His startling baleful aura erupted as a beautiful setting sun descended behind him.
His expression twisted, his entire body seeming to turn illusionary.
“Ka ca!”
In the time it took for a spark to fly, the setting sun turned into a heavenly scarlet river. As the Savage Blood Star Venerate’s saber light descended, it directly chopped apart the Skeleton Dragon Star Venerate’s saber, which was bathed in a Buddhist light.
However, the tip of the saber still stabbed in by one centimeter, inflicting intense pain.
The Buddhist light and the Buddha both disappeared.
The saber broke, and the Skeleton Dragon Star Venerate vomited blood once more. His complexion paled further.
The Skeleton Dragon Star Venerate saw that the Savage Blood Star Venerate appeared somewhat distracted, and quickly took the opportunity to flee, not daring to remain a moment longer.
The other party was stronger than the Skeleton Dragon Star Venerate anticipated. Despite using Breaking the Mundane with thirty-percent comprehension, the Skeleton Dragon Star Venerate still had difficulty severely wounding him.
The Mahāmāyā Abstinence Violation Saber Technique was a Saber Technique comprehended from the Gautama Divine Palm’s third move.
When the Skeleton Dragon Star Venerate left, the Savage Blood Star Venerate’s expression turned cold as he muttered to himself, “Breaking the mundane...breaking the mundane...how can the mundane be so easily broken?”
The Savage Blood Star Venerate’s rage intensified, his killing Qi becoming increasingly scarier.
It was like a scarlet sea gathering behind him, kicking up overwhelming waves and drowning out the sky.
The Savage Blood Star Venerate’s figure appeared exceptionally horrific amid the strong winds and huge waves.
“Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!”
The Skeleton Dragon Star Venerate abandoned his sect’s headquarters and fled frantically. When he left the continent and saw the warm sunlight, he showed joy on his face. They are here! The Divine Shield Army is finally here!
At this moment, the Divine Shield Army’s encirclement had already closed up. Now, one could see the Divine Shield Army’s ships with the naked eye.
The Skeleton Dragon Star Venerate swept his gaze across the fleet and found the flagship. Then, he flew over hastily.
The Skeleton Dragon Star Venerate moved extremely quickly as if the gravity of the starry sea did not affect him at all.
Suddenly, a resonant, clear, cold voice rang out over the surface of the sea. “Which insignificant being is this? To think that you dare to barge into the Divine Shield’s light. Halt, now!”
“Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!” Immediately, countless Divine Shield Army warships became like mirrors, sending out beams of piercing light that locked down on the Skeleton Dragon Star Venerate.
As soon as the hundreds of warships locked on to the Skeleton Dragon Star Venerate, he did not dare to act rashly.
Right now, he was extremely weak. Just one round of cannon fire would take his old life.
“General Jian, this humble self is the Skeleton Dragon Hall’s Hall Master. I come with the Saber Technique manual,” the Skeleton Dragon Star Venerate shouted while squinting.
“Let him enter.”
“Yes, General!”
When the resplendent light focused on the Skeleton Dragon Star Venerate disappeared, he released his bated breath. With a few flashes, he landed on the huge flagship of the Divine Shield Army.
The banners emblazoned with a Divine Shield on the surrounding ships all flapped loudly in the wind.
Two rows of cultivators wearing golden armor stood on the deck, looking at the Skeleton Dragon Star Venerate without any expression.
Straight ahead, General Jian sat on a throne above a flight of steps, looking down at the Skeleton Dragon Star Venerate.
The Ocean’s Star had a branch of the Divine Shield Army stationed in every starry sea, each with a general in command.
Every general had a title. However, only this man in front was simply named the Sword General.
This was because his Sword Technique clashed head-on and swept through the place with wide attacks like a general charging into the traps and formations of the battlefield.
Many pirate groups feared him in the Grave Sea, frightened just by the sound of his name.
A murderous intent spread on the ship, causing the Skeleton Dragon Star Venerate to feel strangely unsettled.
The situation was somewhat different from what he imagined.
The Sword General was not as warm as he had been when they communicated. He could even be said to be cold now.
“Sword General, I’ve brought over the Saber Technique manual. I even used my own sect as bait to lure in the Savage Blood Pirate Group. Now...”
“Alright, I got it. Hand over the Saber Technique manual, then.”
On the throne, the Sword General interrupted the Skeleton Dragon Star Venerate’s words.
“But...”
“I said, hand over the Saber Technique manual.”
The Sword General simply did not give the Skeleton Dragon Star Venerate a chance to speak. He merely repeated himself in a lukewarm yet forceful tone.
“Whoosh!”
Right after the Sword General spoke, the murderous intent in the ship intensified.
Feeling a chill, the Skeleton Dragon Star Venerate took in the cold gazes from the hateful guards and the icy expression of the aloof Sword General on the throne.
Then, he started trembling for some reason, remembering the Savage Blood Star Venerate’s words: You will regret it.
