“You!” Holy Light Heavenly Venerable’s eyes were red, and golden holy light gushed wildly from his body, pushing his cultivation to the peak of the fifth rank of the Golden Immortal Realm.
He raised his golden scepter, and the Stone of Light at the top of the scepter radiated unprecedented holy light, condensing into a golden ball the size of a human head, containing enough power to destroy a city.
“Holy Light – Divine Punishment!”
The golden ball shot out of his hand, leaving a long trail of golden flames, and hurtled towards David.
Wherever the ball of light passed, the air burned, and the ground was eroded to form a trench several feet deep, the rocks within the trench melted into dark red magma due to the high temperature.
David stared at the ball of golden light shooting towards him, his purple eyes showing no fear.
He didn’t retreat, dodge, or even parry.
He just drew his sword.
When the tip of the Dragon Slayer Sword collided with the golden ball of light, the chaotic purple flames exploded violently, turning into a huge purple fireball that completely engulfed the golden ball of light.
The golden holy light struggled wildly in the purple flames, like a prey bitten by the neck by a wild beast, writhing, struggling and roaring in despair, but it was unable to escape the power of chaos.
With a gentle flick of David’s sword tip, the ball of golden light that had been devoured by the Flames of Chaos changed direction and flew towards the Holy Light Heavenly Venerate.
Holy Light Heavenly Venerate’s pupils suddenly narrowed.
He tried to dodge, but the golden ball flew too fast, and after being devoured by the chaotic flames, it became even more unstable, exploding with a loud noise as it reached him.
“Explosion”
Golden holy light and chaotic purple flames exploded simultaneously, turning into countless small beams of light that shot out in all directions.
The God of Holy Light was thrown backwards and hit the palace wall heavily behind him, creating a huge hole in the wall. Then he fell into the palace.
Golden blood spilled from the corner of his mouth, dripping from his chin onto the white jade floor.
His golden robe was torn apart, and his holy light armor was full of cracks, some of which were emitting black smoke.
Holy Light Heavenly Venerate struggled to get up from the ruins, his eyes filled with shock and fear.
Fifth level of the Golden Immortal Realm.
He was a level five Gold Immortal.
On the other hand, David was just a young man at the eighth rank of the True Immortal Realm.
How could he possibly be defeated so badly by a level eight True Immortal?
“Who exactly are you?” Holy Light Heavenly Venerate’s voice sounded extremely hoarse.
David didn’t answer.
He carried the Dragon Slayer Sword and walked towards the Holy Light Heavenly Venerate.
Chaotic purple flames burned on the sword, distorting and deforming the air around it.
His footsteps were neither fast nor slow, every step was steady, as if he was measuring the steps of death.
As the Holy Light Heavenly Venerate watched David approach step by step, the fear in his eyes grew stronger.
He wanted to escape, but his body wouldn’t obey him.
David’s sword attack not only destroyed his Holy Light Armor, but also his meridians.
His holy light flowed irregularly through his meridians, making it impossible for them to merge.
He couldn’t even beat a True God cultivator now.
David walked up to the Holy Light Heavenly Venerate and stopped three steps in front of him.
Those purple eyes looked at him without emotion, like an executioner looking at a prisoner about to be executed.
“Do you have any last words?” David’s voice sounded calm.
Holy Light Heavenly Venerable opened his mouth, as if he wanted to say something, but said nothing.
Various thoughts flashed through his mind—begging for mercy, threats, bribes…
However, he rejected every such idea.
He knew that all of that meant nothing in front of David.
This young man came for the woman wearing a dark red dress.
To hurt him is to violate his moral boundaries.
Begging for mercy is futile, threats are futile, and bribes are futile.
Holy Light Heavenly Venerate closed his eyes.
“I have nothing to say.” His voice was very hoarse. “Please act.”
David raised the Dragon Slayer Sword.
Chaotic purple flames burned on the sword, illuminating the pale face of the Heavenly Saint of Light.
The sword fell.
The purple sword energy slashed at the neck of the Holy Light Heavenly Venerate, and a head flew off, spinning several times in the air before landing on the ground and rolling far away.
The headless body stiffened for a moment, then slowly fell, hitting the white jade floor with a dull thud.
Golden blood spurted from the neck cavity, dyeing the white jade dark gold.
The Lord of the Hall of Light, Holy Light Heavenly Venerate, a fifth-level Golden Immortal, had fallen.
The death of Holy Light Heavenly Venerate was like the last straw that broke the camel’s back.
When the monks in the Hall of Light saw their Hall Leader killed, their morale immediately collapsed.
Some knelt down in surrender, some turned and ran, and some stood there dumbfounded, not knowing what to do.
