Chapter 135 Opening the Heavenly Gate
Chapter 135 Opening the Heavenly Gate
"This sword strike will cleave the gates of heaven!"
With a solemn and supremely majestic declaration, Ye Tian gently slashed his longsword at the few silver streaks that had just appeared, and at the void further away that seemed to conceal even more temples!
There was no sound, no light.
But everyone present, whether top experts like Wu Zhu and Ku He, or ordinary people like Fan Xian, Zhan Doudou, and Si Lili, all clearly felt at that moment that...
The sky seemed to have cracked open!
A colossal sword mark, stretching across the sky with no beginning or end, seemingly capable of splitting the entire world in two, appeared in the heavens!
The few silver streaks that had just appeared exploded instantly upon touching the edge of the invisible sword mark, as if they had struck the hardest barrier, turning into a sky full of fireworks! Several shrill screams echoed from the distant void before abruptly ceasing!
The sword cleaves the heavens! With a single strike, gods and Buddhas flee in terror, immortals and demons bow their heads in submission!
At this moment, the whole world seemed to fall into eternal silence because of Ye Tian's sword!
After an unknown amount of time, the terrifying sword mark in the sky slowly dissipated. Sunlight shone down on the earth once more, but in everyone's hearts, the boundless divine power of that sword still lingered, leaving them unable to extricate themselves.
Ye Tian slowly sheathed his sword, stood with his hands behind his back, and calmly swept his gaze around.
The temple's reinforcements seemed to have been completely frightened away by his sword strike. Only one of the original three messengers remained, a broken shell of a man severely injured by the "Two Green Snakes," and a "core consciousness" that was already filled with fear and whose data flow had completely collapsed, lying paralyzed on the ground, trembling.
Ye Tian snorted coldly, flicked his finger, and a bolt of lightning flashed, turning the remains of the last temple messenger into ashes.
The temple's envoys were almost entirely wiped out!
·······················
As the terrifying sword mark that stretched across the sky slowly dissipated, the world regained some clarity. However, everyone who had witnessed the miracle of "the sword opening the gates of heaven" was still filled with boundless fear and shock, which lingered for a long time.
Ye Tian stood with his hands behind his back, his clothes fluttering. His handsome face, as if sculpted from divine jade, remained calm and composed, as if the earth-shattering sword strike just now had not come from his hand.
"Gulp,"
Someone swallowed hard once again, the sound particularly jarring in the deathly silent square, like a signal that instantly ignited the emotions that had been building up in everyone's hearts to the extreme!
Wu Zhu's face, covered by a black cloth, turned slightly towards Ye Tian, a rare occurrence. Although his expression was unreadable, his slightly stiff body and the almost frozen silence around him silently spoke of the turmoil within him. The definition of "power" in his database was completely overturned and rewritten at this moment! The young master's strength had already surpassed the temple's comprehension!
Master Kuhe slumped to the ground, covered in blood, his collarbones locked, all his power gone. He looked at Ye Tian, his cloudy old eyes devoid of any trace of the pride and Zen-like wisdom of a grandmaster.
All that remained was the purest form of fear and bewilderment.
He muttered to himself, "Gods, gods descending to earth, beyond human resistance, beyond human resistance! May Buddha have mercy! Is this the Buddha who will save the world, or the Asura who will destroy it?"
Zhan Doudou, the last empress of Northern Qi, was already in tears, her delicate body trembling violently. Looking at Ye Tian's figure, who seemed to look down upon all living beings like a god, the thought of "borrowing a seed to bear a child" in her heart had become incredibly devout and humble. She even felt that being able to bear an offspring for such a deity was the greatest blessing and glory she, the deposed ruler of a fallen kingdom, could receive! She prostrated herself on the ground, her forehead pressed against the cold earth, her body trembling slightly from extreme awe and a morbid excitement.
Fan Xian was completely disoriented. He collapsed to the ground, eyes wide, repeatedly muttering, "Impossible, this is impossible! How can such power exist in this world? He's not human, he's definitely not human!" He felt his worldview, his philosophy of life, and his values had been utterly shattered by Ye Tian's inhuman sword strike! His proud modern soul seemed so laughable, so insignificant before this absolute power. That familiar warmth filled him with shame and indignation once more, yet he was utterly helpless.
Si Lili, Haitang Duoduo, and Sang Wen, these three stunningly beautiful women, were already terrified, their faces pale and their souls nearly leaving their bodies. They huddled together, trembling, their eyes filled with primal fear and fervent adoration as they looked at Ye Tian! In their hearts, Ye Tian was already a god, a supreme being who ruled over all! They were willing to offer him everything, including their bodies and souls!
Even the surviving Northern Qi officials and guards knelt down on the ground, prostrating themselves, and kept shouting praises such as "Gods, spare us!" and "Emperor Shiwu's divine might is invincible!" They were afraid that Ye Tian would wipe them off the world like the temple messengers in a fit of anger!
At that moment, the few temple messengers who had survived the aftermath of "Sword Opens the Heavenly Gate" but were already severely injured and with sparks flying from many parts of their bodies, finally managed to regain a sliver of "consciousness" from that devastating blow.
Their electronic eyes, flashing with chaotic data streams, were filled with an incomprehensible fear of Ye Tian!
"Warning! Warning! Target YT-001, energy level determined to be 'World-Destroying Level'! Far exceeding all known individuals in the Temple's database! Its attack pattern contains... contains the power of 'Laws'!"
"Data analysis shows a high degree of similarity to the genetic sequence of the 'mother' (Ye Qingmei), the highest sequence in the temple. However, its power has already surpassed the mother's peak state!"
"Escape! Initiate the highest-privilege escape procedure immediately! Send this message back to the temple!"
One of the temple messengers, who was still able to move with difficulty, had a voice filled with unprecedented panic and shrillness. Its broken metal body was leaking some unknown liquid due to extreme "fear" (stress response under program disorder), which emitted a pungent burnt smell. It was truly scared into "peing"!
It cried out, its voice trembling with despair: "As expected, as expected of Ye Qingmei's son! He, he is a monster! A demon god who transcends the temple's comprehension!"
Before the words were even finished, the few remaining temple messengers simultaneously emitted streaks of white light indicating spatial teleportation, clearly wanting to escape this terrifying place that filled them with despair at all costs!
However, would Ye Tian let them have their way?
"Trying to leave?" Ye Tian's lips curled into a cold smile, a flash of murderous intent crossing his eyes. "Before me, you lackeys of the temple, you dare to dream of escaping alive? A pipe dream!"
He didn't even raise his sword again; instead, he casually flicked his sleeve at the broken figures who were about to be teleported away!
The instant he flicked his sleeve, a blue dragon shadow, even more magnificent, more condensed, and more sacred and majestic than the previous "two sleeves of blue snakes," roared out from his sleeve!
That was not just sword energy, but a phantom of a divine dragon, a hundred feet long, covered in blue scales, with flowing whiskers and eyes like the sun and moon, exuding an aura of boundless vastness and dominance!
When the divine dragon appeared, the wind and clouds changed color! A terrifying dragon's might, originating from the primordial era, instantly enveloped the entire world!
