Chapter 2546: Expert of the Way of the Sword

The Rain Abbess, who could dominate the entire Delight Plane, had returned. This immediately unsettled all the peak experts of the Delight Plane. As for the experts who had wanted to swiftly annihilate the Cloudsurge Empire while the Rain Abbess was gone, they all gave up on that idea.

At that moment, they could not help but celebrate that they had not struck out earlier, or they would have been unable to imagine the consequences.

“Haha, the Empyrean Demon Cult attacked the Cloudsurge Empire while the Rain Abbess was gone, but now that she has returned, let’s see how the Empyrean Demon Cult tidies up after themselves…” A few Primordial realm experts watched on cheerfully. It was as if they wanted to witness destruction.

“There’s an extremely powerful great elder behind the Empyrean Demon Cult. Now that the Rain Abbess has returned, the mysterious great elder should appear…”

“It’s said that the great elder of the Empyrean Demon Cult killed a Grand Prime who had just reached the Fourth Heavenly Layer effortlessly. The Rain Abbess can do that as well. I wonder who is stronger between the Rain Abbess and the great elder of the Empyrean Demon Cult…”

A few Primordial realm experts thought eagerly. They wanted to see the great elder clash with the Rain Abbess.

They could all tell that the battle between the armies of the Empyrean Demon Cult and Cloudsurge Empire had reached a high intensity. Both sides suffered heavy casualties, so the grievance had become deep. The Cloudsurge Empire would never just drop the matter. Only the peak experts of the respective sides could come and tidy up the situation.

There were even some peak experts who secretly communicated with one another and reached an agreement that they would strike once the Rain Abbess and the great elder of the Empyrean Demon Cult were heavily injured. They would kill the Rain Abbess and remove the Cloudsurge Empire’s ultimate pillar of support.

With the Rain Abbess dead, the Cloudsurge Empire would no longer pose a threat in their eyes. They could destroy the empire easily if they worked together.

“The Rain Abbess has returned sooner than I expected.” Cheng Ming paused as he collected the liquid and mud in the forbidden grounds of the Cloudsurge Empire. He raised his head and looked at the sky concealed by the formation. His gaze deepened.

Jian Chen was stern because he had completely lost the ability to detect any changes in the outside world due to the formation. However, he could clearly sense a vast pressure fall from the sky, and it was to the point where he found it suffocating.

“Grand elder!” Jian Chen looked at Cheng Ming. He felt an ill omen with the Rain Abbess’ return. He would be of no use against such a person.

Moreover, he knew that once the Rain Abbess returned, the might of the Formation of Cloudsurge and Rainflood would be completely unleashed. At that time, not only would the Empyrean Demon Cult’s divine hall be suppressed, but even the Heaven-linking Bridge would be unable to pass through the formation.

Both the Heaven-linking Bridge and the divine hall could only be used against a Formation of Cloudsurge and Rainfall that lacked the support of a Grand Prime.

However, the grand elder remained composed. As if he was certain about success, he said, “Don’t worry. The early return of the Rain Abbess is within my calculations. After all, she is one of the few experts who have comprehended the Laws of Space. Naturally, she would be extremely fast.”

Jian Chen’s heart jumped. “Grand elder, will senior Mo Tianyun be coming?”

In Jian Chen’s opinion, only Mo Tianyun could hold off the Rain Abbess, as according to his understanding of the Empyrean Demon Cult, although they had many Godkings and Infinite Primes, they would be far weaker than other peak organisations in terms of Chaotic Primes.

As for Grand Primes, there was only Mo Tianyun.

The Empyrean Demon Cult was not like the Cloudsurge Empire that recruited many foreign experts. Within the Empyrean Demon Cult, ranging from the Origin realm to Chaotic Prime, all of them were disciples of the cult. They may have comprehended different laws, but they all practised demonic arts.

“If master could take part, why would we have gone to such great lengths to do this? Master has even more important matters to attend to. He won’t be coming,” said Cheng Ming. He looked at the sky deeply before no longer paying any more attention to it. He continued to collect the liquid and mud.

“How dare you steal my Innate Orchid of Five Elements! Empyrean Demon Cult, you sure are bold!”

A booming voice rang out in the sky. It was a woman’s voice, pleasant and feminine, but it also contained endless coldness and fury. It rang across the five regions of the Delight Plane, and the voice alone caused the ground to shake slightly.

The Rain Abbess had returned. She stood in the air within the torrential rain. She used the Formation of Cloudsurge and Rainflood to envelope the entire Delight Plane, using the formation to seal up all the space there.

At that moment, the Delight Plane seemed to become its own, independent world, completely cut off from the outside world. Even all the interplanar teleportation formations were rendered useless.

The Rain Abbess clearly did this to trap the Empyrean Demon Cult on the Delight Plane and prevent them from escaping.

The Empyrean Demon Cult’s actions had completely infuriated her.

“This is a fusion of the Laws of Space and the Formation of Cloudsurge and Rainflood. The Rain Abbess has actually sealed up the entire Delight Plane!” At the same time, the expressions of the various ancient existences and ancestors across the Delight Plane changed.

“Dammit, the Rain Abbess is just far too forceful. Does she really think that the Delight Plane belongs to her? She has actually cast down such a terrifying formation without any warning at all, locking up the entire plane…” Many ancient existences were furious as some of them trembled.

At this moment, a streak of light suddenly shot over from the depths of outer space. It was extremely bright, illuminating the black space and making all the stars dim in comparison.

The streak of light moved unbelievably fast, covering billions of kilometres at every moment. It seemed to have surpassed the shackles of time and space, rushing over with lightning speed. It appeared right outside the Delight Plane despite being in the depths of outer space moments prior.

A simple sword hovered within the streak of light. It directly slashed at the Formation of Cloudsurge and Rainflood on the Delight Plane with piercing power of the Laws of the Sword.

The strike was terrifying. As it fell, the world descended into darkness. Space shattered and all light disappeared.

A cold snort suddenly rang out from within the Formation of Cloudsurge and Rainflood. The Rain Abbess charged out. A thick layer of clouds wrapped around her as her presence surged, making the galaxies tremble.

A sword long and thin like a willow’s branch appeared in the Rain Abbess’ hand. She directly stabbed out.

The sword fused with the surrounding space, moving like a bolt of lightning. It collided with the simple sword.

Boom!

The collision was astonishing. It was truly devastating. Large swathes of space collapsed, forming a hole that was several hundred metres across, devouring everything there.

The sword that had shot over from the depths of space matched the Rain Abbess.

“The Rain Abbess has actually encountered an opponent. Who is this? Is it the great elder of the Empyrean Demon Cult?”

“No, he doesn’t have any demonic aura at all. It’s purely the Laws of the Sword. He can’t be the great elder of the Empyrean Demon Cult…”

“What powerful Laws of the Sword. Just the power in that strike alone would have been enough to kill us. He’s so powerful…”

…

The peak experts on the Delight Plane said sternly. Their eyes shone brightly as they stared at the battle in outer space. They were shocked.
