Supreme Sword Exalt

Chapter 189 - The Great Might King Seal! The Immovable Great Might! The Heaven-Burning Great Might!

Gu Han gulped. “Master Rooster, a-are you alright?”

Seeing that Chongming remained motionless, his heart went cold.

It’s over! Master Rooster is completely unreliable!

He glanced at the fire-red tail feather drooping to the side. Should he pick Chongming up to see if it was still alive?

Right at this moment, the giant descended, using its hands to push off the ground. One of its giant palms rose high and swept down. “You cretins dare to defile our god! You will all be exterminated!”

In that instant, an invisible pressure swept across. Gu Han was sent flying far away, spitting out blood midair.

He could barely steady himself after landing, shouting anxiously, “Master Rooster, get up!”

One hit from that massive palm, and even Chongming wouldn’t fare any better. No, probably not even a trace would remain. Soon, that fear came true. A deafening noise erupted as the giant hand slammed against Chongming. The residual force transmitted over, causing Gu Han to cough up blood again.

His face paled. Shit! Shit! This is bad! Master Rooster is gone! I am done for!

Sure enough, the giant’s gaze swiftly fell upon him. “Ant, the majesty of the god must not be challenged!”

Gu Han leaned on his sword and slowly stood up. He understood that he was going to die today. The monster before him was countless times stronger than Murong Yuan. Kill Sword, Blood Spirit Art—none of them would be of any use against it.

Wiping the blood from the corner of his mouth, he sneered contemptuously. “You expect me to believe it’s a god just because you say it?”

The giant roared furiously, “Audacious! How dare you disrespect our god?!”

Gu Han stared at it, enunciating each word, “Did you know that you’re actually very ugly, so ugly it makes me feel sick?!”

Knowing death was inevitable, he simply stopped worrying about anything. Still, he refused to die an easy death!

He went on. “And also, that so-called god of yours is just a rare species, that’s all, and you dare call it a god? If you are gods, then I am immortal!”

The giant flew into a rage, its vertical eye opening. A destructive aura firmly locked onto Gu Han. “Ant! You defiled our god, I sentence you to the punishment of destruction—huh?”

Mid-sentence, he suddenly lowered his head. The hand that had been tightly pressing on the ground was slowly rising.

“Well said... That was good! What ‘god’ nonsense, they’re just a bunch of monsters!”

Gu Han was stunned. Huh? This voice... It’s Master Rooster! It’s not dead!

Chongming’s voice came through again. “Kid, you’re pretty good! I didn’t save you for nothing! As a sword cultivator, you should be like this. Even if you face death, you must never bow your head!”

The chicken raised both wings high, actually lifting that giant hand up.

Gu Han was overjoyed. “Master Rooster, you’re not dead!”

Chongming felt a bit of its pride was wounded. “That didn’t count just now! I was just careless!”

Gu Han’s mouth twitched. “Master Rooster, let’s talk less, how about we handle this first?”

He had witnessed it with his own eyes. This chicken’s brain isn’t right! Once it starts boasting, it forgets about the main task. It’s happened twice already!

Chongming was furious. “Kid, are you looking down on me? I have weathered countless storms, what haven’t I seen?! A mere lowly divine servant, how could he—”

The giant’s other hand instantly fell, smashing it down hard again.

Gu Han’s heart trembled. “Master Rooster, are you alright?”

Though brimming with anger, Chongming was full of vigor. “I’m fine! Just careless, that’s all!”

In the blink of an eye, the giant struck down with another palm.

“I’m not—ahem, I’m fine!”

The giant seemed infuriated too. “You!”

Its four massive arms swung one after another, palms slapping down on Chongming again and again. The invisible pressure emanating outwards sent Gu Han coughing up blood repeatedly, forcing him to retreat.

After a good while, the giant finally stopped its movements. It let out a heavy gasp, seeming somewhat tired as well.

Gu Han forced himself to call out again, “Master Rooster, how are you?”

Chongming didn’t answer. However, a terrifyingly immense pressure slowly began to rise.

Gu Han’s heart leaped with joy. “Not dead? But...”

His brow furrowed again. Though he was certain that the aura belonged to Chongming, something about it felt different.

Suddenly, a voice full of dominance and authority rang out. “A mere divine servant dares to humiliate me like this?!”

As the words fell, a five-colored divine light blazed forth. The terrifying pressure increased more than tenfold. A thunderous noise boomed and the giant was sent flying.

Within the darkness, Chongming hovered in mid-air, bathed in five-colored divine light. Its multicolored feathers shone brilliantly with divine light, indescribably sacred and solemn. Even its eyes had transformed into double pupils.

Barely steadying itself, the giant erupted in fury. “Our god, must not be—”

Chongming snorted coldly, cutting him off. “The Great Might King Seal!”

As the words fell, Chongming reappeared right in front of the giant. Its wings came together, colorful divine light instantly gushed forth. It transformed into a five-colored divine seal over a hundred zhang in size, landing on the giant.

“Suppress!”

Despite appearing somewhat illusory, the great seal seemed to contain boundless weight. Divine light blazed, forcing the giant to kneel on the ground.

The giant howled incessantly, “Glory to our god!”

Two giant palms that were blotting out the sky swept down toward Chongming.

Chongming was filled with disdain. “Ignorant! The Immovable Great Might!”

Vibrant divine light continuously swirled over it, forming a five-colored halo. In the next moment, the giant hands slammed into the halo, but it didn’t budge an inch. Even more shocking, the hands instantly shattered into pieces. The giant cried out in pain as a trace of fear appeared in its eyes.

In the distance, Gu Han watched in shock. He could barely recognize Chongming. Its tone was solemn, its expression majestic, and its strength had multiplied several times over. Where did that somewhat unreliable chicken go?

He exclaimed sincerely with admiration, “Master Rooster, you’re incredible!”

Words that had once delighted the chicken now barely drew a reaction. Chongming didn’t even turn its head, its gaze fixed solely on the giant.

The giant also stared fixedly at it, shrieking hysterically, “Our god must not be defiled! Die!”

Its vertical eye opened once more, firing a beam of utterly concentrated energy straight at Chongming.

Gu Han grew anxious. “Master Rooster, be careful!”

He knew Chongming was formidable, but he was still a bit worried.

Neither dodging nor evading, Chongming slowly said, his voice carrying a hint of sacredness, “The Heaven-Burning Great Might!”

Two streams of five-colored divine flame erupted from its double pupils, instantly colliding with the beam. The beam stopped briefly, before being completely suppressed by the divine flame. In the blink of an eye, the five-colored divine flame had landed on the giant, engulfing it entirely.

For the first time, the giant let out a piercing shriek. Its massive hands flailed wildly, as if trying to extinguish the divine flame. Not only was it ineffective, it instead made the divine flame burn brighter. Wisp after wisp of black smoke rose from the giant as it rapidly shrank.

“No! That’s impossible!” Sensing its power slowly draining away, agony and disbelief filled its eyes. “My divine power!”

Chongming glanced at it. “A mere divine servant dares to act insolent before me? You’re asking for death!”

By this point, the giant had shrunk by nearly half. In despair, it pleaded incessantly, “Our god... Save me... Save... your servant...”

This space suddenly trembled for a while.

Gu Han’s eyes narrowed. “What’s happening?”

He faintly sensed the ground trembling slightly. Streams of thick red mist rose up, drilling into him.

This is bad!

That will had invaded his mind once again. Without hesitation, he channeled his cultivation, barely managing to put up a protective spirit light. However, the red mist was thicker than ever. Even with his dual Supreme Stage cultivation, he could only hold on with great difficulty, on the verge of collapsing.

Meanwhile, Chongming seemed to pay no attention to his abnormality at all. Its pair of double pupils was fixed tightly on the void in the distance.

Suddenly, within the dark space, a single point of light appeared. Immediately after, a hundred points... a thousand points... ten thousand points...

In the blink of an eye, countless points of light had appeared, dispelling the endless darkness. Only then did Gu Han realize this space was actually ten thousand zhang in circumference. Each of those points of light turned out to be an extremely profound and mysterious rune, emanating a sacred aura that filled every corner. Glancing down, he discovered that the incomparably hard ground was composed of a layer of uneven, incredibly thick blood crystals. The red mist was emanating from there.

In the next moment, an appalling, extreme sense of oppression descended from above.

Gu Han instinctively looked up and instantly froze. There was a muscular, bronze-colored arm, over a thousand zhang long. And it was just the arm. His heart was filled with terror as he recalled Jiang Xuan’s words.

What is sealed within this God-Slaying Formation is actually just an arm of that god! How strong must the god itself be! And who exactly could dismember such a powerful god?!

Upon seeing the arm, the giant wailed mournfully, “Our god, save me!”

The finger of the gigantic arm suddenly twitched.

Chongming sneered coldly. “You want to break free? In your dreams!”

The bronze hand curled into a fist in an instant, and the blood crystals beneath Gu Han’s feet split apart, webbed with countless cracks. The countless runes also vibrated lightly.

Five illusory, semi-existent divine chains of order manifested on the bronze arm, binding it tightly. Hovering between reality and illusion, one of the divine chains was slightly dimmer than the rest.

The bronze arm seemed to sense the anomaly and thrashed violently.
