Chapter 160: Slaying a Connate Expert (5)
Venerable Ning Jing’s gaze was cold as she swept her gaze across the four Yang God experts surrounding her.
She opened her mouth and said slowly, “Was your goal to lure me here?”
“In that case, who gave you all such confidence that you think you can deal with me?”
Venerable Ning Jing’s voice was very indifferent, but it also carried a condescending tone. It was as if she did not take the four Connate experts of the Yang God Race seriously at all.
When the four of them heard this, they immediately revealed angry expressions, but they forcefully suppressed their rage. They did not choose to attack directly. Instead, their auras tightly locked on Venerable Ning Jing to prevent her from escaping.
They were waiting for Elder Sharp Wing to use his extreme speed to rush back and join the secret array. They were waiting for the secret array to reach its most perfect state and for a sure-kill opportunity.
When the four of them looked at Venerable Ning Jing, their gazes became even colder and filled with killing intent.
Seeing the four of them like this, Venerable Ning Jing couldn’t help but shake her head slightly and sighed softly. “If you’re waiting for that person to come to support you, you don’t have to continue.”
The four of them were shocked when they heard this. A dangerous glint appeared in their eyes. What did she mean?
How did Venerable Ning Jing know that they were waiting for Elder Sharp Wing?
Or had their ambush plan been seen through?
Boom!
At the thought of this, the four of them immediately felt their auras become unstable. A powerful pressure erupted from their bodies.
Even the pillars of light that led straight to the sky flickered and became unstable.
At this moment, the expressions of the four Connate experts and Venerable Ning Jing changed almost at the same time.
In their perception, it was as if the final brilliance of a large star was burned away before it streaked across the starry sky of the universe. In the end, it eventually lost its brilliance and fell into the mortal world.
As Connate lifeforms, they all knew what this phenomenon represented.
A Phala had fallen!
In the phenomenon of the universe, every large star represented an invincible creature in the Connate Realm.
Now that a large star had burned away its final brilliance, it meant that a living being in the Connate Realm had their Connate Phala severed by someone. As a result, they fell from the Connate Realm and no longer had the strongest Phala which allowed them to enjoy a lifespan of 1,000 years.
At this moment, a faint smile appeared on Venerable Ning Jing’s calm face.
On the other side of the battlefield, although two Venerable-Realm creatures were fighting, the only one with the Connate Phala was the Connate expert of the Yang God Race.
Although Wang Yi’s combat strength was unparalleled and he was an extremely powerful existence in the Connate Realm, he had not completely taken that step after all. Thus, a large star that represented him in the universe did not exist.
In that case, it was very obvious.
An existence that had fallen from the Connate Realm could only be that Connate expert of the Yang God Race.
Apart from the previous Dao discussion, Venerable Ning Jing had never interacted with Wang Yi.
However, it was also because of that Dao discussion that she had unparalleled confidence in Wang Yi. Hence, the word “kill” appeared in her message.
Indeed, Wang Yi was worthy of Venerable Ning Jing’s trust and did not disappoint her.
If Venerable Ning Jing could think of this problem, the other four Connate experts of the Yang God Race could naturally think of it too.
In an instant, Lord Heyuan’s expression changed drastically. He no longer cared about maintaining his special position to sustain the secret array and trap Venerable Ning Jing.
He already understood in his heart that the ambush plan had completely failed. The strength of that Venerable in Cang City far exceeded their imagination.
It was unknown if Elder Sharp Wing was dead or alive, but there was no time to care about him.
The most important thing now was to escape before the Venerable from Cang City arrived.
That was right. They were going to escape!
If they waited for the two human Venerables to gather, with their invincible strength, even if they could not kill all four of them here, it would not be difficult to stall them.
If this dragged on for too long, it would alert the seniors who were supporting the fate of the human race and attract those truly invincible existences to attack.
Even Lord Heyuan, a supreme expert at the peak of the Physical Realm, would not be able to escape death when facing such an invincible existence.
“Retreat!”
Without any hesitation, Lord Heyuan directly dispersed the black pillar of light that connected the sky and earth to form a secret array and roared crazily at the other Connate Elders of the Yang God Race.
The others instantly reacted. At the same time, they dispersed the black pillar of light from their bodies and used their extreme speed to escape in all directions.
Kill!
With Venerable Ning Jing here, she naturally would not allow them to do as they wished. With a furious shout, the Silver Frost Battle Sword in her hand danced gently, and the space behind her fluctuated violently.
A terrifying Dharma Idol that looked almost identical to Venerable Ning Jing and spanned the height of the entire world appeared. It descended into this world from an unknown latitude.
Venerable Ning Jing stabbed the Silver Frost Battle Sword into the ground. The terrifying Dharma Idol behind her moved at the same time, and the huge Dharma Idol sword in its hand stabbed into the ground as well.
Boom!
With the Silver Frost Battle Sword and the Dharma Idol Sword as the center, a freezing cold intent so cold that it could freeze the void instantly enveloped the figures that were fleeing in all directions.
At this moment, Venerable Ning Jing’s cold voice resounded throughout the battlefield. “Are you trying to escape? Aren’t you underestimating me too much?!”
As the void was frozen, the four of them immediately slowed down. When they heard Venerable Ning Jing’s words, they couldn’t help but turn around.
However, when they saw the terrifying Dharma Idol, they were all shocked and terrified.
Lord Heyuan did not expect Venerable Ning Jing to risk her life and use such a method.
This indomitable Dharma Idol was indeed powerful enough and possessed terrifying combat strength that was not inferior to Venerable Ning Jing. However, this Dharma Idol was also the foundation of her martial path.
It was not like the Connate Phala, where one would go from an immortal to a mortal and fall out of the Connate Realm after it was cut off.
However, if the Dharma Idol was seriously injured, Venerable Ning Jing’s path to advancement would be cut off. She would have no hope of reaching the peak of martial arts and could only stagnate for the rest of her life.
For supreme existences who could step into this realm, with their peerless talent, if they could not continue to climb to the peak of martial arts, that would be the cruelest punishment for them.
At this moment, the four Connate experts of the Yang God Race no longer cared about preserving their strength. They instantly raised their combat strength to the peak and attacked Venerable Ning Jing with their greatest strength.
Venerable Ning Jing was not afraid at all when she saw this. Her expression was still cold and expressionless as she directly pulled out the Silver Frost Battle Sword that was inserted into the ground.
She held the sword in her hand, and an extremely cold aura lingered on the edge of the sword. As she waved it, she guided the extremely cold power in the void and slashed at the other three Connate experts who had yet to reach the Physical Realm.
The Dharma Idol behind her moved at the same time. It held the Dharma Idol Sword and directly slashed at the strongest Lord Heyuan.
At this moment, the identity of the hunter and the prey had completely changed.
