Chapter 1997: Arrogant Then, Humble Now—You Weren’t Like This Before
CHAPTER 1997: CHAPTER 1997: ARROGANT THEN, HUMBLE NOW—YOU WEREN’T LIKE THIS BEFORE
This scene scared the hell out of Cedric James and the others.
Great Land Sovereign!
Damn it, this traitor from Green Cloudy Valley is actually a Great Land Sovereign!
Thunder Immortal Realm, who can stop them?
If the Sect were closed and the Mountain Protection Array activated, there might still be hope to keep these three at bay, but now we’ve let the wolf in the door, and even more so, we’ve activated the Formation, sealing off all escape routes!
We wanted to catch a turtle in a jar, but the reality is we’ve let the wolf in!
No, this isn’t a wolf; this is a dragon no one can defeat!
Carson Flores smiled in amazement: "Is this the Divine Skill you’ve understood, Spatial Cutting?"
Selah Ellison Venerable One chuckled: "Yes, initially, this should count as my Innate Divine Ability. As my Realm grows higher and my understanding deeper, there might be other changes, but for now, this is it. In the short term, I might be able to expand the Domain range even further, but nothing else will change."
Carson Flores nodded: "That’s impressive. The power of these spatial cutting lines is not something the human body can withstand."
Selah Ellison Venerable One explained: "The final effect of the cutting depends not just on its own power, but also on the opponent’s strength and their Divine Skills. If the power gap is large, it’s a crush. If the strength is similar, it becomes a contest of Divine Skills. It can’t be said that whoever is under the Domain will definitely be killed."
Carson Flores acknowledged, this is quite understandable.
This is just like whether your spear is infinitely sharp and can pierce through an ordinary shield, but what if your opponent has an indestructible shield?
Strength or weakness, life or death, can’t be decided solely by power or Divine Skills alone.
While the two were conversing, Karter Hartman, his face deathly pale, instructed those around him: "Quickly go and open the Sealing Formation!"
The person next to Karter Hartman received the command and moved away, but as soon as he moved, a Black Small Sword appeared like black lightning, instantly penetrating his forehead.
His head exploded on the spot, and the Primordial Spirit within his Sea of Consciousness didn’t even have time to flee before disappearing completely.
Spencer Steele’s calm voice was like a Demonic Sound: "Who moves, who dies!"
Cold sweat the size of grains appeared on Karter Hartman’s forehead, filled with terror and helplessness inside.
What to do?
This time it’s truly over!
Cedric James’s face was ashen. He never expected to encounter such a situation.
Fight, they can’t win!
Escape, there’s no way out!
Cedric James said deeply: "Have you are determined to oppose our Heavenly Alliance? We belong to the Three Saints Sect of the God Immortal Domain, with countless Great Land Sovereigns in the Sect. Even if you are a Great Land Sovereign, you stand no chance against the Three Saints Sect!"
Selah Ellison Venerable One slightly raised the corner of his mouth, ignoring him and just turned his head to Carson Flores, awaiting his decision.
Carson Flores calmly asked: "Cedric James, I want to know, did you suddenly take action on Aydin Hatfield’s order?"
Cedric James nodded: "Of course, I’m the Blue Clothed Blood Envoy, so I naturally act on the orders of the Alliance Hierarch. He told us to create some commotion to attract outsiders’ attention, then to hide and wait for the strong ones in the Sect to arrive. When the time comes, we can overthrow the Immortal Sect and establish a new order!"
Carson Flores sneered: "He’s making you create a commotion to attract the Celestial Palace’s attention, giving them a breather. Quite the loud plan he’s got."
With the Great Land Sovereign in front, Cedric James had no momentum left, his mind filled only with thoughts of survival.
"Selah Ellison Venerable One, you are already a Great Land Sovereign and will surely head to the High Immortal Realm, where there are many powerful beings. Without a backer, if you provoke a major force, it will be equally miserable. Why not join our Three Saints Sect? There’s a place for you in the Venerable One Courtyard, and with our Sect as your backing, there’s no place in the God Immortal Domain you can’t go!"
"The Three Saints Sect will take down the Thunder Immortal Realm; this is a fact no one can stop. Why bother giving your life for a Celestial Palace that is doomed to fall? Carson Flores, and this one, you can also join the Three Saints Sect to get out of this vortex early."
"If you join the Three Saints Sect, not only will you gain a lot of Cultivation Resources and Cultivation Techniques, but your Sect, family, and friends will also be protected due to your status as a disciple of the Three Saints Sect, sparing them from losses in this Thunder Immortal Realm catastrophe..."
Cedric James looked earnestly at Carson Flores: "I know you have a grudge against the Red-robed Blood Envoy, but as long as you join the Three Saints Sect, Selah Ellison Venerable One’s status, and yours, won’t be lower than hers. Even if Selah Ellison Venerable One helps you kill her, it won’t be a big deal..."
Carson Flores sneered: "Hypocrite, that wasn’t your attitude just now."
Cedric James was extremely embarrassed, but could only awkwardly explain: "Because, sir, you possess admirable strength. A wise bird chooses a tree to roost in. You clearly have a bright future, so why tether yourself to a sinking ship like the Celestial Palace? And Selah Ellison Venerable One, fighting against the Three Saints Sect, is evidently not a wise choice..."
Carson Flores sneered: "What you say makes sense; fighting the Three Saints Sect, there’s indeed no chance of winning. Unfortunately, this won’t save your life. From the moment you attacked the White Crane Immortal Sect, your fate was sealed!"
Carson Flores slowly exhaled and turned his head to Selah Ellison Venerable One.
"Do it, kill them all!"
