Chapter 323: My Life Is Nearly Spent, I Can’t Endure Anymore

“Brother Shen, don’t move. Let me do this!

“This is just a void vortex. I can settle this with a single finger!”

Wang Shenxu exuded a powerful aura, but he did not look imposing at all.

In contrast, he looked like he had just eaten something very bitter.

I have already burned a sizable chunk of my lifespan, just waiting for that one final push to turn the tide. Now, you tell me that Shen Tian has woken up? Doesn’t this mean I have burned all those years of my life for nothing?

It was really the wrong timing to wake up!

Wang Shenxu’s face was full of angry despair. He stared into the void vortex.

I will fight you to the death!

Wang Shenxu was enveloped in a silver glow as the powerful void energy surged into the void vortex.

As more and more void energy surged into the void vortex, the vortex slowed down, and its suction power also became weaker.

Although it still radiated with an all-engulfing power, its threat to the team had lessened significantly.

Wang Shenxu finally heaved a sigh of relief. At least, he didn’t shorten his own lifespan for nothing.

Wait a minute!

Wang Shenxu’s face suddenly stiffened. He had suddenly realized that his expended lifespan was not enough.

The void vortex had absorbed too much energy, and suppressing it was way harder than Wang Shenxu imagined.

Wang Shenxu’s divine void constitution was a cursed constitution. He had been losing years of his life, more or less, from the day he was born.

Even if he successfully broke through to the Soul Formation stage, Wang Shenxu’s lifespan would not increase by much. Before all this, he had about 500 years of life left.

However, he had escaped the giant Dragons’ murderous pursuit, launched an invisible blade technique to chop off the wing of a Wind Lord Wyvern, as well as the Void Funeral Send-Off technique when fighting against Qi Shaoxuan.

Wang Shenxu had already expended a large portion of his lifespan on those antics.

Faced with this void vortex, Wang Shenxu had already burned about 90% of his remaining 200 years. His hair had already turned white.

Even so, he could only forcefully suppress the power of the void vortex to a minimum. He could not completely annihilate it.

Wang Shenxu made a rough estimation. If he wanted to completely destroy the void vortex, he would have to burn at least another 50 years of his life.

The thing was, he no longer had 50 years to spare.

This was no joke!

Although Wang Shenxu had cried out, “I will burn my own life to control the void”, it had just been a slogan.

After obtaining the Eternal Life Sutra, as long as Wang Shenxu didn’t burn off his entire lifespan, he could slowly recuperate in the future.

But the caveat was that he couldn’t fully expend his entire lifespan. There wouldn’t be anything left to save if he did.

He still had a lot to live for. Who would be willing to sacrifice his own life?

But I have already made such a bold declaration!

I even told Brother Shen not to interfere. And now I have to beg for his help?

So embarrassing!

Wang Shenxu gradually sank down into a deep dilemma. What a headache!

As the void energy Wang Shenxu radiated became weaker, the recovering void vortex suddenly appeared to be incensed. It started to retaliate.

Rumble!

It was like a terminal lucidity!

At that moment, the void vortex cracked and radiated with a suction power that was even more powerful than before.

Wang Shenxu was undoubtedly the void vortex’s target. He was instantly tugged toward the vortex.

“Damn, damn, damn, damn, damn. How did I lose control?

“Brother Qi, Brother Shen, Brother Au, lend me a hand. Pull me back!”

Shen Tian and the other two couldn’t help breaking out in cold sweat as they watched Wang Shenxu being dragged into the vortex.

Didn’t he say he could handle this with just one finger?

This Great Void Saint is such a dullard!

The corners of Shen Tian’s mouth twitched. His Feather Immortal Metal wings spread out behind him.

In the blink of an eye, Shen Tian disappeared from the spot and reappeared in front of Wang Shenxu.

He grabbed Wang Shenxu’s shoulder with his right hand and tossed him out of the radius of the vortex.

“Brother Shen, no!”

Wang Shenxu’s eyes filled with hot tears as he watched Shen Tian being sucked into the void vortex.

Did Brother Shen just sacrifice his life to save me?

I am no great man. But Brother Shen found me worthy enough to save?

Brother Shen, how can I ever repay your kindness?

Just as Wang Shenxu was feeling very touched, Shen Tian erupted with a dazzling green light.

Jade-green vines with Hurricane Lilies sprouted out about him.

The moment those Hurricane Lilies bloomed, Shen Tian instantly stopped being sucked in.

He then reached out with his right hand.

A long jade-green vine made a slash in the void vortex and reached in before spreading rapidly all over.

As the vine spread, those white Hurricane Lilies all went into full bloom.

The void vortex appeared to be bound, and its already slowed-down swirling now came to a complete stop.

Following that, more and more vines emerged. The black pinpoint center of the void vortex also became increasingly smaller. It soon disappeared into nothing.

Peace and calm finally resumed. The void’s all-engulfing power had also completely vanished.

Qi Shaoxuan, Wang Shenxu, and Ao Wu heaved a sigh of relief, especially Wang Shenxu. His face was a mixture of high relief and bitter grudging.

He nearly lost his life and still didn’t manage to save the day.

How bitter my life is!

Meanwhile, Qi Shaoxuan was mainly shocked. He had experienced firsthand the power of the void vortex.

Although Wang Shenxu had expended his life to reduce its power by about half, it remained a tricky challenge.

But in front of Shen Tian, the void vortex was as weak as a lump of flour.

A couple of simple moves and the void vortex was completely subdued.

Shen Tian’s abilities were truly astonishing!

As for Ao Wu, he was gazing at Shen Tian with intense adoration.

He clapped his plump little hands. “Brother Shen, you are indeed powerful! You were able to disperse this void vortex with whips. No wonder Grand-Aunt was willing to sign a contract with you!”

Shen Tian, “???”

How are these two matters linked?

Qi Shaoxuan and Wang Shenxu exchanged glances. They felt their faces growing a little warm.

They had just been battling so ferociously, but in the end, Shen Tian had to save them when things got tricky. So embarrassing!

Ahem, how to change the subject in a subtle way?

Help!

Qi Shaoxuan’s three eyes suddenly swiveled. “Ahem, Brother Shen spent a long time cultivating in front of the Black Tortoise Stone Tablet. I wonder if you gained any insights?”

At that, Wang Shenxu and Ao Wu also looked very curious.

After all, a normal cultivation session was not that absorbing. Only those who were immersed in a very deep cultivation state would be oblivious to everything around them.

This also meant that he had obtained some great epiphany. So great that he was completely engrossed in it and couldn’t pull himself out.

Qi Shaoxuan and Wang Shenxu were both very curious. What sort of epiphany could make Shen Tian so immersed?

It must not be your normal legacy.

Shen Tian smiled at their curious expressions. “Nothing much. Just a technique to replenish one’s life energy, as well as a sword technique.”

Wang Shenxu nodded. Given Shen Tian’s talent, it was perfectly normal for him to be able to understand the Eternal Life Sutra. Also—

Wait! ‘As well as a sword technique’!?

Don’t tell me it was the Eternal Thearch’s premier technique, the Eternal Sword?

Why didn’t I get that at all?

Ao Wu gazed at Shen Tian. “What sword technique? Brother Shen, can you show us a couple of moves?”

Show them a couple of moves?

Shen Tian was taken aback. He then smiled at Qi Shaoxuan and Wang Shenxu. “Alright. Are Brother Qi and Brother Wang willing to spar with me so that I can demonstrate it?”

Wang Shenxu’s white hair stood on end, and his dark eyes circles seemed to glow.

He shuddered. “Ahem, I think Brother Qi is better for the job! My life is nearly spent. Sparring is a young man’s game. I cannot endure it now.”

With that, Wang Shenxu hurried to the side and sat down. He copied the Black Tortoise statue’s pose and started to circulate Spirit Qi around his body.

His heart ached dearly!

He had lost several hundred years of his life because of that earlier incident and had no idea when he would be able to gain them back.

But… this pose… was indeed rather embarrassing!

Qi Shaoxuan showed no signs of fear or hesitation. He looked at Shen Tian with sparkling eyes. “If Brother Shen doesn’t mind, I am willing to let you try your new moves on me.”

Shen Tian nodded with a smile. His Jade Water Sword suddenly appeared in his hands.

Its jade-green light was like sparkling, flowing spring water. It was clearly a good sword.

Of course, to someone as elite as Qi Shaoxuan, this Jade Water Sword was just a common item.

It was the person holding the sword who was making Qi Shaoxuan so eager. Even a piece of grass or stick of wood could become a sword in that person’s hands.

Qi Shaoxuan would never forget that night on Saint Mountain, that divine, deity-like sword intent. He had been constantly haunted by that since then.

And Shen Tian had gained yet another sword technique from this Black Tortoise Stone Tablet. Qi Shaoxuan was clearly very perturbed by that.

“Purple Aura River Mountain! Form!”

Qi Shaoxuan ingested some elixir to refine and activate his Purple Aura River Mountain as if facing off a great enemy.

The purple aura swirled around his body like a great, protective armor.

At the same time, Qi Shaoxuan’s Heavenly Eye glowed as it remained fixed on Shen Tian, hoping to spot some flaw.

But there were no flaws!

An endless sword avatar appeared behind Shen Tian, and beams of divine light shot out of the avatars’ sides.

Due to his Divine Sword Constitution and Flying Sword Intent, Shen Tian could basically master any sword technique, even of the most advanced levels. The form may vary, but the principle remained the same.

Shen Tian stood there with his sword, his handsome face glowing under the light. He looked extraordinarily dashing and mighty.

Even Qi Shaoxuan couldn’t help feeling somewhat inferior when faced with this image of Shen Tian.

“Brother Shen, make your move!”

With his Heaven’s Halberd in hand, Qi Shaoxuan faced Shen Tian with eager anticipation.

Shen Tian raised his Jade Water Sword and slashed it in Qi Shaoxuan’s direction.

The movement wasn’t fast. In fact, it was slow to the extreme. Such that even a three-year-old kid could dodge it easily.

However, Qi Shaoxuan’s face shifted the moment the sword came down. He could already feel the extraordinary powers of that single sword movement.

It was already at the most advanced realm, in contact with the forbidden domain of time. It was a supreme-level technique.

Shen Tian’s control of this sword technique was not yet perfect.

Even so, Qi Shaoxuan could feel extreme pressure from that one move.

Clang!

The clang of the sword was like a dragon bursting out of the ocean—the sword light like the first rays of the sun at dawn.

At that moment, a startling sword light seemed to penetrate through space and slice through time.

The Purple Aura River Mountain surged but was useless against it. The Heavenly Eye dazzled like electricity but could not catch hold of the move.

Clang!

The Jade Water Sword was returned to its scabbard. Shen Tian folded his arms behind his back and smiled.

“This is called the Eternal Sword.”
