Chapter 1472: The trend of the times, we must cut the weeds from the roots
In Xuan Luo City, all the Chu people trembled and couldn’t help but kneel in that direction.
“Ancestor Chu Bai is fighting the three-legged Golden Crow. With the invincible power of the ancestor, he will surely be able to kill it!” Many shouted, expressing their hatred for the Golden Crow that had suddenly invaded the Chu clan’s territory, causing widespread slaughter.
In the surrounding star field, cultivators and creatures watched the terrible battle unfold, filled with trembling fear. The three-legged Golden Crow blazed across the sky like a great sun, devastating everything in its path, leaving scenes of destruction and death in its wake. Only a fortunate few managed to escape the catastrophe; for them, this was an indiscriminate disaster.
Who would have thought such a scene could unfold in the territory protected by Xian Chu?
“Little Immortal King, if you dare to stop me, I will destroy your true soul today.”
“Then I will kill all your people and let them accompany you.”
The battle shook the world. Di Wen flapped his wings and roared repeatedly, simultaneously spewing out dazzling flames from his mouth. Each ray of fire was the true fire of the sun, capable of obliterating laws and order and evaporating fragments of the long river of time, showcasing its terrifying nature.
After all, he was the prince of the Golden Crow clan, possessing a formidable bloodline talent. Although he was not as experienced in combat as Chu Bai, he was more than capable of easily suppressing him, causing Chu Bai to cough up blood and sustain injuries.
Despite only a single realm separating the Immortal Emperor Zhun from the Immortal King, their methods and approaches were vastly different. If it weren’t for Chu Bai’s extraordinary nature and his cultivation base being at the pinnacle of an Immortal King, he would have been incinerated by Di Wen’s blast of true sun fire. For anyone else, there would have been absolutely no chance to compete.
“The strength of this Golden Crow is even greater than the quasi-immortal emperor I have faced before, and it possesses many treasures.”
Chu Bai fought with great difficulty, realizing he had been a bit careless. His figure swiftly moved to the side, evading Di Wen’s strike, but the aftermath still grazed him, causing half of his body to explode. He spat out blood, his face contorted with pain, and the injury looked particularly severe.
“Little bug, with your limited ability, you dare to stop me? You truly don’t know how to live or die.”
Seeing this, Di Wen let out a disdainful sneer. Although he was somewhat surprised by Chu Bai’s ability to withstand a Quasi-Immortal Emperor for so long, he didn’t take it seriously. He unleashed the terrifying Golden Crow Dharma Body, and the river began to surge violently as fragments of the Dao flew, attempting to completely annihilate Chu Bai’s true soul.
Boom!!!
Chu Bai was injured again, coughing up blood as the many treasures he had sacrificed were instantly reduced to powder by the true fire of the sun. He could only resist passively, and his injuries grew increasingly severe.
Anxiety and regret swelled within him; he had thought this was an ordinary three-legged Golden Crow, but it was clear that the creature before him was far from simple, given its strength and abilities.
“Wow…”
Di Wen’s dharma body pressed down once more, causing Chu Bai to cough up blood again, his injuries so horrific that he felt he might completely explode. Even though his vitality was strong, it could not recover at this moment.
As anxiety gripped him, he suddenly heard a soft sound, like the twang of a bowstring, accompanied by a powerful sensation that blessed his soul. In the distance, deep within the already devastated Sunset Valley, a stream of colorful light shot toward him at incredible speed, seemingly transcending time and space.
“You dare…”
Seeing this scene, Di Wen’s eyes ignited with fury. He became even angrier, convinced that Chu Bai was deliberately stalling for time, secretly using techniques to seize his opportunity.
Boom!!!
The world shook violently, and a clear river of time emerged, flowing beside Di Wen. He transformed into a human figure, donning a black robe embroidered with a great sun and golden crow, radiating intense anger. With a single palm, he advanced toward Chu Bai, determined to reclaim his opportunity.
However, the colorful stream of light seemed to have a will of its own, easily slipping past his palm and quickly descending to Chu Bai’s side.
“The sacred treasure has its owner!”
Chu Bai was momentarily stunned but then overwhelmed with ecstasy. It was clear that this was an artifact with a spirit, and it had chosen him as its master. Without hesitation, he reached out to grasp the colorful stream of light, seizing the divine bow within.
“You are seeking death! Let go of him!”
Seeing this, Di Wen’s fury intensified, and murderous intent radiated from him. He watched in disbelief as the colorful stream of light, which he had been pursuing for so long, was snatched away by Chu Bai, transforming in an instant from a mulberry tree sapling into the shape of a divine bow. How could he bear it?
“Sunshooting Bow.”
But at that moment, with the artifact in hand, how could Chu Bai even consider handing it over? Deep surprise and admiration flickered in his eyes as he examined the divine bow made from ancient materials. A faint gray mist, intermingled with a black, unknown substance, diffused around the Sunshooting Bow.
At a glance, it exuded an air of profound age and simplicity, as if it had witnessed the destruction of countless civilizations and universes, embodying tyranny and terror. He felt an incomparably surging power welling up within him, and he realized that he could use this bow to annihilate the world and vanquish all enemies.
This Sunshooting Bow seemed tailor-made for him, responding to his will as if it were an extension of his own arm, with no hindrance whatsoever.
“Haha! The will of the heavens is in my hands, and with the divine bow at my side, help me eliminate this enemy!”
Chu Bai laughed triumphantly, drew back the bowstring, and with a whoosh, a terrifying arrow of light coalesced, shimmering like a rainbow piercing the sun, roaring as it tore apart heaven and earth.
The arrow of light was terrifying, filling the entire sky with an overwhelming murderous intent that enveloped heaven, earth, time, and space.
“This is my chance…”
At that moment, Di Wen was already furious and was using all his means to suppress and kill Chu Bai. However, as the arrow of light approached, he felt an instinctive horror and fear, as if he were facing a natural enemy. This arrow had the power to obliterate his true spirit and pierce through his Golden Crow body.
There was no time to reflect on the origin of such a fearsome arrow; it was simply too terrifying. The anger in Di Wen’s heart quickly transformed into dread, and he abandoned any thought of seizing the opportunity from Chu Bai. Flapping his wings, he prepared to flee for his life.
Yet the arrow of light darkened the sky, and its cold murderous intent locked onto him firmly, leaving him no chance of escape.
Puff!!!
Accompanied by a muffled sound, blood splattered across the sky, and black feathers rained down around the sun and true fire. In a desperate moment, Di Wen severed his own wing with great determination, barely managing to block the arrow of light. He couldn’t comprehend how Chu Bai, who he had casually beaten just moments before, now possessed the power to threaten his life in the blink of an eye after seizing his opportunity.
Di Wen roared in fury, filled with unwillingness, as he struggled to hold on to the remaining half of his body, intending to tear apart the universe and escape this place.
“You flat-haired bastard, where do you think you’re fleeing?”
However, Chu Bai was not one to show mercy. The enmity had already been established; how could he let the tiger return to the mountain? He was determined to cut the weed from the root to prevent any future troubles.
With the Sunshooting Bow in his hand, he was suddenly overwhelmed with pride, believing it to be comparable to the legendary treasures of civilization.
