Da Xuan Martial Saint Chapter 1514 - 727: Black Lotus Treasure (Part 2)
Previously on Da Xuan Martial Saint...
High into the sky, he lifted the lotus platform, and suddenly, a surging, heavy dark radiance erupted from the jet-black lotus platform. This radiance gathered a vast and domineering supreme force, smashing straight into the attacks unleashed by the four Dao Venerables.
Boom!!!
A dreadful clash triggered a blast at the mountain's base, causing the whole structure of Primordial Power to tremble fiercely.
From the tangled rays of the Great Dao, the form of Wutian Venerable was hurled back, clearly unable to stand against the united might of the four Dao Venerables. Yet, astonishingly, he withstood their joint assault, and the Great Dao artifact, though not completely subdued, stayed firmly in his control. His Great Dao body showed no major harm either.
"Great Dao Treasure!"
The four venerables gazed at the Black Lotus clutched by Wutian Venerable, their faces shifting in surprise.
Wutian Venerable commanded the Creation Lineage alone, drawing solely on the strength of the Creation Dao. Facing four others, battling four fellow Creation Venerables seemed nearly impossible, and he could have been overwhelmed in one strike.
Still, despite being at a clear disadvantage and overpowered, Wutian Venerable refused to yield and avoided instant suppression. His ability to pull off such feats clearly stemmed from the treasure's aid; that Black Lotus he held was truly a Great Dao Treasure!
"You actually have a Great Dao Treasure!"
Venerable Guixiang's eyes tightened a bit as he fixed his stare on the Black Lotus in Wutian Venerable’s grip.
"Just luck."
Though pushed back by the four, Wutian Venerable's Great Dao body quaked hard, but he replied with steady calm. Next, the Black Lotus in his hold spun abruptly, releasing another intense dark radiance that struck at the four once more.
Meanwhile, his free hand moved swiftly, shoving the Great Dao artifact into the emptiness. There, a unseen massive hand materialized, seizing right for this Great Dao artifact.
Chen Mu struck!
While Wutian Venerable clashed directly with the assaults of the four venerables, handling it from behind proved much simpler for him. Right then, he used Void Techniques to seize the Great Dao artifact straight from Wutian Venerable’s hold.
Once the Void Lineage’s Great Dao artifact landed in his possession, it shook wildly, unleashing bursts of Void Dao energy as it tried to break free. However, Chen Mu's gaze just shimmered, showing a vision of Universe Creation inside. The Void Dao's will came down, and in a flash, the Great Dao artifact stopped resisting.
For a Void Lineage Dao Venerable, taming a Void Lineage Great Dao artifact is of course incredibly straightforward!
Having tamed and pocketed the Great Dao artifact, Chen Mu shifted his attention ahead, eyeing Wutian Venerable as he battled against four, tying up the four Dao Venerables. A faint gleam sparked in his eyes.
Even he hadn't foreseen that Wutian Venerable carried a Great Dao artifact. This was obviously a secret weapon for Wutian Venerable. As a Creation Lineage Dao Venerable, owning a matching Great Dao artifact naturally amplified his techniques a lot. From Chen Mu's judgment, the strength Wutian Venerable displayed with the Great Dao Treasure's help far exceeded any single one of the four Dao Venerables and almost matched his own at full force!
Remember, if he pushed to his limits right now, he could command the forces of two Great Daos at once!
"Great Dao Treasure... not bad."
Chen Mu thought to himself.
A Great Dao Treasure roughly boosted Wutian Venerable's Creation Power by around sixty to seventy percent. Though it fell short of gaining a whole extra Great Dao, it remained a solid enhancement.
Armed with this powered-up might, he could hold off the assaults of the four Dao Venerables briefly, without getting crushed right away.
"Silent Annihilation!"
With the Great Dao artifact secured, Chen Mu whirled around and unleashed a Silent Annihilation slash.
Buzz!!!
Rich and powerful Void energy filled the Silent Annihilation light, slicing into the fray immediately.
At first, Wutian Venerable was locked in a tough struggle with the four Dao Venerables, falling behind, but Chen Mu’s supporting strike flipped the tide in a heartbeat. The dark sheen from the Black Lotus cracked apart like shattered glass, and Wutian Venerable surged out of it, escaping the four venerables' surround.
"Gentlemen, I accept this defeat!"
Gripping the Black Lotus, Wutian Venerable glanced back at the four venerables trailing him. His appearance was a bit messy, but a small grin tugged at his lips. With those words spoken, he swiftly linked up with Chen Mu, climbing toward the deep well's summit.
Trailing after, Venerable Guixiang and the other three showed dark looks. Seeing Wutian Venerable and Chen Mu on the verge of getaway, they refused to let go, firing off a fierce barrage that sent roaring waves of force chasing behind.
"Wutian, do not flee!"
"You cannot escape!"
"Gentlemen, quickly intervene and block them!"
The four Dao Venerables united in chase, their furious cries ringing out, even calling on other venerables beyond the well to step in.
But by now, Chen Mu had already tamed and stowed the Great Dao artifact, sealing the outcome. The Beast Divine Venerables outside noticed Chen Mu and Wutian Venerable had claimed the prize and were busy tying down their foes with all they had.
Swoosh!
Together, Wutian Venerable and Chen Mu rocketed upward. Though they met resistance from two venerables at the well's edge, they powered through. Shoulder to shoulder, they tore past the strikes of the two Dao Venerables, exploding out of the mountain!
