Chapter 818 The Fallen God Bow, The Person Who Pulled the Bowstring
Back at the Origins Realm, in the Northern Star Region, at the Heavenless Devil Palace.
Most of the elites had gone out with the sect master, and only the disciples below the realm of Chaos Daluo Golden Immortal stayed behind.
At that moment, some disciples were cleaning the main hall. They were discussing the topic of waging a battle against the Ancient Forbidden Area when they heard a crisp, cracking sound at the same time, causing them to jump out of their skins. Their pupils shrank violently and gasps escaped from their lips when they turned their heads to the direction from whence the sound was coming.
“The… The sect master’s jade plaque has cracked!”
“How’s this possible? The jade plaque’s connected to his life and soul. There’s no way it could’ve cracked!”
“Unless…”
“No! This must be an illusion. No one in the Ancient Forbidden Area could possibly be strong enough to kill the sect master!”
All the disciples’ scalps went numb while goosebumps popped out all over their bodies. They were immensely terrified. At the same time, the same phenomenon was happening at the Shinto Pavilion and the Ascension Sect. The disciples’ minds went completely blank and they could not accept that their sect masters had perished as well.
Immediately after, the news spread rapidly throughout the Northern Star Region like wildfire, causing all the cultivators to be in an uproar. They could still recall vividly when the four powerhouses entered the Ancient Forbidden Area with their imposing troops. It was a very spectacular moment to witness, so how was it possible for everyone to be wiped out within the span of a few days? This was something that they could not imagine!
“The Ancient Forbidden Area’s name is really befitting of them!”
“How can the four major powerhouses, each of them a Wisdom Dictator, be wiped out just like that?”
“All of the sects—the Ascension Sect, the Shinto Pavilion, and the Heavenless Devil Palace—had glorious pasts that spanned a million years. There’s no way they could be annihilated so easily!”
“It’s very strange. All the unknowns of the Ancient Forbidden Area makes it very memorable.”
“That group of people who came from there is destined to make waves in the Origins Realm!”
All forces developed a strong interest in the Ancient Forbidden Area. Gone was their previous disdain and they dared not act rashly, what with the knowledge that they destroyed the four powerhouses so effortlessly. Before this, no one would have thought that a place like the Ancient Forbidden Area would become a force to be reckoned with.
Meanwhile, back at the Heaven Plundering Alliance, the Executor had also received the news of their defeat.
“What?! The plan failed?” he asked with shock and disbelief. It took him a while to digest the news. “Something feels off about this whole thing. The Ancient Forbidden Area must’ve undergone some unimaginable changes.”
He frowned as a myriad of colors flashed across his face. When the Heaven Plundering Alliance invaded the Ancient Forbidden Area previously, there were no other strong cultivators apart from the seven Battle Spirit Guardians, not even a half-step Wisdom Dictator. How was it possible for there to be more skilled cultivators when the era of the seven Battle Spirit Guardians had already passed? What exactly was responsible for all those changes?
The Executor looked at the fiery red longbow floating in front of him and muttered to himself, “Just what kind of secret is hiding in the place that the seven Battle Spirit Guardians have created?!”
He suddenly realized that this matter was beyond his ability, and so, he decided to report the matter to the Heaven Plundering Alliance’s headquarters. However, just as he was about to leave, two powerful auras swept in. The auras were extremely terrifying, and at the same time, domineering and unparalleled. The sky above the Heaven Plundering Alliance was covered with a mass of dark clouds which then turned into a terrifying pressure as they came down on him! A Wisdom Dictator had arrived, making the sky lose its color while freezing the surrounding space.
The Executor looked solemnly toward the distance and saw two figures walking in the air toward him. These two figures were both wearing gray robes. Their faces were as still as water and the most striking thing about them was that between their eyebrows, there were symbols of flaming red wings. At that moment, their eyes were fixed intently on the red longbow in front of the Executor.
“That must be the Fallen God Bow. This bow will be the key to unlocking the Ancient Forbidden Area!”
“The way of the Overlord is at hand, and we’re about to recreate his glory!” They were speaking excitedly to each other while their faces revealed undisguised greed for the longbow.
“This bow belongs to the Heaven Plundering Alliance. Are you planning to make an enemy out of the entire organization?” asked the Executor coldly. “Pah! The Heaven Plundering Alliance is nothing! We ruled before the Eternal Era, and will continue to rule over the universe until the end of time!” One of the figures broke out in peals of mocking laughter. Then, he launched a palm strike at the Executor.
“Manic Void Point!” The Executor cast his ultimate spell without skipping a beat.
However, he felt a terrifying oppressive force bearing down on him, neutralizing his ultimate spell while the unparalleled power split his bones inch by inch before it sent him flying.
“Who are you? How are you so strong?” The Executor was horrified. He thought that his ultimate spell would easily annihilate an ordinary palm strike. It never crossed his mind that it would not even make a dent against his opponent’s attack before it was neutralized.
“Who are we? We’re the living dead, and we’re going to see the light of day again,” said the man expressionlessly. He then reached out for the Fallen God Bow.
The Executor’s eyes were wild with panic. He gritted his teeth and managed to grab the Fallen God Bow first. Then, he started to pour his mana into the bow without reservation. Red light beams exploded from the longbow as it expanded by 10 yards, its arrows just as large. The ends of the arrows were like a comet’s tail.
The arrows contained enough power to shoot down everything and anything between the heavens and earth. A single shot could take down countless gods, while another could rip the heavens apart. The Executor had refined the Fallen God Bow for so long, and although he still could not unleash its full power, he would just need a trace of it to cause an earth-shattering attack.
The two men did not panic at all when they saw the arrow coming for them. Instead, there was a look of disdain in their eyes.
“It’s still not too late for the two of you to retreat!” threatened the Executor.
“Hahaha! Why don’t you take a shot and see if your arrows can take us down,” said the man.
“You asked for it!” The Executor released an arrow which instantly tore the void apart, causing the laws of Yin and Yang to be upended.
Suddenly, the red wings on the man’s forehead emitted a dazzling red light just when the arrow was about to strike him. Then, the arrow froze mid-air before it dissipated with the wind.
“How can this be?!” The Executor widened his eyes in horror. Then, he screamed, “What’s your relationship with the seven Battle Spirits Guardians! Why doesn’t the Fallen God Bow have any effect on you?”
“It’s because you’re using it wrong. Let me show you how!” The man smiled coldly, raised his hand, and the Fallen God Bow exuded a scorching aura. It broke free from the Executor’s hand and arrived in his. Then, the man gently pulled the bowstring.
Compared to the Executor, he appeared relaxed and calm. The Fallen God Bow was evidently a lot more well-behaved in his hands. The bow looked like a full moon as it was drawn and the long arrow was like a rainbow.
“No!” The Executor let out a desperate roar before he instantly evaporated!
