Chapter 1193: Heavenly Tribunal Calamity

Saint Qiluo let out a clear whistle, opening his mouth to release a stream of primal essence, which transformed into a divine mist and surged forward, blocking the giant hand. He absolutely could not allow the medicine cauldron to fall into the opponent's right hand.

"Heh, it's useless. You're just doing our work for us. All the remnants of the Heavenly Court will die; not a single one will survive!"

The Killing Saint from Hell possessed a power like a sea of stars, murderous intent like an ocean, and terrifying, surging vitality. Though seemingly skin and bones and gaunt, his strength was absolute.

In his hand, he held a transmitted saint artifact, a sinister dagger that sliced through the divine mist Qiluo had formed from primal essence, tearing it apart with destructive force.

This was a great disaster!

As a Killing Saint, he was much older than Qiluo, more experienced, and possessed a denser murderous aura. Targeting only one stream of essence, he could naturally flatten it in an instant.

"Ch!" He swung his black dagger, and a dark light flashed. Several heads fell, and the people in front of the cauldron died with wide, unseeing eyes before their bodies instantly exploded into a mist of blood. These were the six people from Sky Village specifically responsible for tending the ground fire beneath the medicine cauldron; at that moment, they didn't even utter a sound before being reduced to shattered bones and blood pulp by the saintly power.

He let out a cold, chilling laugh, like an ice blade scraping bone, and said, "You've worked hard to refine such a good batch of medicine. I'll remember you. Rest easy on your journey."

On the other side, Qiluo roared in anger but couldn't shake off his opponent. As fellow Killing Saints, they employed all sorts of techniques; murderous intent swept across the mountains and rivers, bending all vegetation.

Streaks of blood light appeared as Qiluo left several bleeding wounds on the Killing Saint from the Human World, but he found it difficult to truly defeat the opponent.

"A formidable junior, to be able to wound me through an ancient killing formation with his murderous aura – truly not simple." The Killing Saint from the Human World dipped a withered finger into his own blood and tasted it. Various ancient artifacts floated around him, forming a movable ancient killing formation that could both protect him and destroy enemies. He let out a sinister laugh and said, "Eradicate them, leave no one behind! Let the Heavenly Court decay and perish!"

The ancient artifacts around him glowed fiercely, fully revived, and a bone bell appeared above his head. The white bone was crystal clear, and with a resounding clang, it caused the entire small world to shake violently, inspiring boundless terror.

"Haha..." On the other side, the Killing Saint from Hell laughed cruelly, looking down at Sky Village. His shriveled body appeared sinister and demonic as he said, "Hell and the Human World will flourish greatly. Thank you for this immense fortune you've delivered!"

He raised his hand to grab the great cauldron, brimming with satisfaction. At the same time, a frantic murderous intent appeared in his eyes as he looked disdainfully at everyone in Sky Village.

A primeval saint mecha appeared silently, flashing with a faint blue glow. Jizi made his move, unleashing a great void cleave that struck towards the Killing Saint's back.

The Killing Saint from Hell wore a cruel smile as his bony hand slapped backward. When it came to assassinations, who could compare to him? Not even Jizi, who commanded the Way of the Void.

"Bang!" Terrible claw marks appeared on the primeval saint mecha, sending it flying sideways. Inside the war machine, Jizi's eyes were cold. He continuously shifted, tearing open the void, constantly appearing and disappearing.

The Killing Saint was terrifying, a king among slayers whose methods chilled one to the bone. He nearly dragged Jizi, who wielded the Void Emperor's secret techniques, out of hiding.

"Roar..." With a long roar, the Saint Prince arrived, piloting a golden war machine. He held a golden battle spear, using it like a great staff, sweeping it across with an aura like the sea.

With a 'ding' and a vibrating sound, the Hell Killing Saint's dagger flashed, severing the battle spear. He performed several spinning thrusts, then vanished from his spot, reappearing moments later to almost slice open the golden mecha!

He forced the Saint Prince to retreat quickly. The Prince's combat power was insufficient, and he nearly suffered an injury.

"The Heavenly Court has long since decayed. All its remnants will be wiped out today, utterly annihilated!" the Killing Saint battling Qiluo said indifferently.

The Killing Saint from Hell, having forced the Saint Prince back, nodded with a cold smile and said, "Indeed, all of you will die. You should have been purged long ago, just like your ancestors, until your blood runs dry!"

He reached for the Myriad Manifestation Mother Qi Cauldron again, but his movements were slow. He eyed the Saint Prince and Jizi, waiting for them to try and snatch it.

"Stop him!" All the assassins of Sky Village glared with furious eyes. After countless hardships, refining medicine until now, someone was about to reap the rewards just as they were on the verge of success. Their hearts swelled with anger and resentment.

The Saint Prince and Jizi charged forward again, but ultimately, they were not Saints, and this one was a Killing Saint, most adept at the art of slaughter. They could not succeed and nearly suffered injury themselves.

The dark dagger slashed past, and a middle-aged man from Sky Village in the distance had his head roll off, bleeding profusely, his primordial spirit annihilated. His death was gruesome.

The Killing Saint from Hell had naturally done this on purpose; everything was under his control. He intended to torture and kill the people of Sky Village one by one.

He reached for the great cauldron again, moving slowly, still watching Jizi and the Saint Prince, his gaze indifferent, as if waiting for them to make a move.

Suddenly, the great cauldron rumbled, transforming into a streak of immortal light. Its immense power shook the heavens as it rapidly struck his palm.

At the same time, Ye Fan, hidden within the void, opened his eyes. His gaze was intimidating, shooting out cold, piercing light. All his special phenomena merged into one, engulfing him.

In a flash of blood, half of the Killing Saint's body became a bloody mess, almost shredded by the phenomena.

The Myriad Manifestation Mother Qi Cauldron emitted a terrifying aura, shattering the true cosmos and unleashing immense force that struck the Hell Killing Saint's arm, causing his body to briefly lose balance.

It was precisely because of this that Ye Fan's phenomenal strike was effective, leaving the man covered in blood.

Ye Fan's targeted sneak attack, using a supreme secret technique of the Heavenly Court, would have at least flayed others alive or severely wounded them. Yet, this Killing Saint was largely unharmed.

With a flash of blood, Jizi and the Saint Prince seized the opportunity to find an opening, leaving two horrifying scars on the Killing Saint's withered and aging body.

However, he remained unharmed. This was the terror of a Killing Saint: unparalleled combat skills and infinite killing techniques allowed him to minimize damage to himself.

Ye Fan and the other two were horrified and quickly retreated. In that instant, they sensed a terrifying heat and a life-threatening assault. This particular assassin was quite ruthless, destroying a saint artifact, intending to use it to crush their mechas and annihilate their forms and spirits.

The three moved far away, and surprisingly, the area became calm again. The Killing Saint from Hell chuckled sinisterly; the saint artifact in his hand was undamaged. It had only been an illusionary technique.

Ye Fan, the Saint Prince, and Jizi all looked grim. This Killing Saint was extremely experienced in combat and incredibly difficult to deal with.

Most critically, the opponent was a Saint. Coupled with his terrifying combat power, rushing forward today would most likely lead to their demise.

"Buzz!" The Myriad Manifestation Mother Qi Cauldron rumbled, forcibly summoned back by Ye Fan. With a flash of light, it disappeared into his glabella.

"Retreat!" Seeing the medicine cauldron safely retrieved, Qiluo breathed a sigh of relief. He had many wounds on his body, but he stood at the very front, signaling for those behind him to withdraw.

"No one will escape today; all of you will die here! The great flourishing of Hell and the Human World will be built upon the ruins of the Heavenly Court!" The Killing Saint engaging Qiluo said. Various ancient artifacts floated before him, all serving as array flags. He had set up an ancient killing formation, leaving himself unharmed.

At the same time, the Killing Saint from Hell also had various ancient artifacts appear before him, flowing with light. He, too, had set up a small ancient killing formation that could move with his body, intending to slaughter everyone.

In ancient times, the two great divine dynasties remained intact, largely preserving their accumulated power, which was far greater than that of the Heavenly Court now.

"Senior, come quickly!" Ye Fan set up an array platform, opened a void passage, and called out to the old Saint from Tianyou Stone Workshop.

However, there was no response. The void was dim, as if sealed off.

"This is bad!" Jizi's expression changed. He ordered attempts to traverse the void, only to find that all array platforms had become ineffective.

Sky Village had various defensive measures, with array patterns everywhere that allowed passage to Central State, Southern Ridge, and other places, but they were not working now.

"They have a secret treasure that can imprison the void, sealing off this entire small world!" The Big Black Dog, an expert in formations, immediately made this judgment, sensing that something terrible was about to happen.

The Killing Saint from the Human World said with a grim gaze, "I know you have grandmasters of formations here. For the sake of certainty, we used the most primitive methods to sever the void before entering, pulling this small world into another divine land created by an ancient Great Saint."

Like a small bubble swallowed by an alligator, they were isolated in another cage.

"My two fellow Daoists have arranged everything so perfectly. It seems my intervention won't be necessary." A third Saint emerged from the shadows!

Everyone's expressions changed. This was an ancient race member, with flowing white hair and eyes like cold lightning. His figure was majestic, and a pair of deer antlers grew on his head, emitting a divine halo like a sacred moon.

"It's the Silvermoon Royal Clan!" the Saint Prince said coldly.

It was bad enough that two great assassin divine dynasties had appeared, but now an ancient royal clan was also present. Even though only one Ancestor King had come, it made everyone's heart sink.

"We recently discovered this place simultaneously, so we'll simply divide the precious liquid and share the benefits. Heaven itself wants to destroy you, remnants of the Heavenly Court; no one can save you," the Killing Saint from Hell said indifferently.

With two great divine dynasties and an ancient clan launching a joint attack, this would be a bloodbath!

The Silvermoon Royal Clan was a prominent and radical ancient clan. Recently, while investigating divine minerals, they had discovered clues and unexpectedly found Sky Village.

"I never expected such a great harvest! If we annihilate them all here, it will save us a lot of trouble in the future!" The Silvermoon Ancestor King laughed loudly, sweeping his gaze over Ye Fan, then fixing his cold, piercing eyes on the Saint Prince.

"Hmm, no rush. We should let these children get a little blood on their hands. How else can they grow without experiencing slaughter?" The two Killing Saints waved their hands, and silently, a dense swarm of assassins appeared, then vanished into the void.

Qiluo retreated, ceasing his battle.

Then, with a sweep of his hand, a vast expanse of killing light rose before Sky Village, blocking these people and preventing them from approaching. This was an ancient killing formation, a remnant of the Heavenly Court.

"The Heavenly Court's complete killing formation no longer exists in this world. This remnant formation is useless. Watch how I break it," one of the Killing Saints said.

However, as he stepped forward, endless killing light surged, opening dozens, even hundreds, of bloody gashes on his body, nearly tearing him apart. Had he not been a Killing Saint with heaven-defying methods and retreated immediately, he might have met with an accident.

"This ancient formation, supplemented by this Emperor, now includes a corner of an Emperor's pattern! How could you possibly break it?" the Black Emperor scoffed.

The Killing Saint from Hell shook his head and said chillingly, "Before absolute strength, all methods are useless. I can slowly wear down and destroy this remnant formation. None of you will survive!"

Ye Fan looked at Qiluo and said, "Abandon this small world. Let's leave this place. Once we consume the evolution fluid and our combat power advances further, we'll thoroughly eradicate Hell and the Human World!"

Qiluo sighed. There was no other choice; this small world could not be saved today. They had to leave.

They had made various preparations and considered the worst-case scenarios. Ye Fan, Qiluo, and the Black Emperor had previously imprinted source techniques and formations within the small world, allowing them to burn this small world and destroy the external restraining forces.

"Hell, Human World, just you wait! One day, we will utterly annihilate you, erasing your names from this world!" the Big Black Dog bellowed.

Ye Fan said coldly, "You're right. Everything is an illusion. Only absolute strength is the ultimate truth. In half a month, I will flatten Hell and the Human World!"

"Silvermoon Royal Clan, please wait patiently. I will surely pay your clan a visit," the Saint Prince said, staring at the white-haired Ancestor King.

"Oh no, stop them!" The two Killing Saints and the Silvermoon Ancient Saint had a bad premonition, but they couldn't breach the ancient killing formation immediately.

"Boom!" The small world disintegrated, rapidly burning away and piercing through a passage. The people of Sky Village crossed over and escaped.
