CHAPTER 1191 TWO DEAD EXPERTS

　　The sound and force of the explosion rocked the entire battlefield. 

　　But this time around, the weaker cultivators had learned from the earlier experiences. They had already started to move to the back of the battlefield seeing what had been happening.

　　Besides, their part in the battle had already ended with over 90% of the cannon fodders of the Northern Tribes dead under the bombardment of the Myriad Armament Canopy Abode. 

　　And because of their retreat, they had managed to stay awake to witness it all this time. They saw everything from the start to the end, carving it deep into their souls, for they would pass on their story to their descendants for eons to come.

　　With the explosion of Master White Mountain's body, Lin Mu had already disappeared into the parallel world using Fade. Even he wouldn't come out unscathed from the explosion of an Immortal Ascension realm experts body and had to do that.

　　The Centennial Sword Ancestor on the other hand, pulled out all the defensive talismans he had while getting back as well, preventing himself from getting injured in it.

　　"AHAHAHA! THE FIRST ONE IS DEAD!" Jing Luo's loud laughter could be heard in the sky, amplified by the Myriad Armament Canopy Abode's power.

　　~SHUA~

　　Lin Mu moved through the parallel world without stopping, heading towards Little Shrubby.

　　He had originally intended to kill the Dao Treading realm experts first, but Jing Wei's breakthrough and the subsequent distraction from it gave him the best chance to act. Lin Mu's spirit sense had already been alert and scanning for everything, thus he knew the best opponent to attack.

　　Master White Mountain was in the worst position and became his target, allowing the Centennial Sword Ancestor to finally finish him off. 

　　Additionally, the explosion of Master White Mountain's body also killed of the four Dao Treading realm experts of the Northern Tribes that were nearby. Those from the alliance on the other hand, were still under the protection of the Profundity Carving shield. holds © this.

　　Albeit, even that was now cracking.

　　~KACHA~ KACHA~

　　Several cracks covered the Profundity Carving shield and some of its sub-shields were already broken.

　　Its power was falling by the minute and it wouldn't be long before it dissipated entirely.

　　Back on the side of Little Shrubby, Master Cull Mountain felt her energy being blocked as a mass of multicolor smoke surrounded her.

　　"Haha, the oldest rule in the book is to never lose focus in battle. And you did that very thing." The Rainbow Pill Ancestor couldn't help but mock.

　　"You!" Master Cull Mountain gritted her teeth in fury as she stared daggers at the man in multicolored robes.

　　Her own robes were scorched and a long claw mark could be seen on her exposed back. It had been seared black and faint embers could still be seen glowing in it, the Dao Traces of fire still trying to reignite.

　　~PTUI~

　　Master Cull Mountain bit her tongue forcefully and spat out a mouthful of blood. Her complexion turned pale, but the restriction on her energy was lifted.

　　Her body started to age and within a few seconds, her hair turned snow white while her skin became wrinkled like an old tree's bark. If before she looked to be in her fifties, she now looked like she was in her nineties! 

　　"Oh? You actually burned away your lifespan?!" It was the Rainbow Pill Ancestors' turn to be shocked this time.

　　By forcefully igniting her vitality, she created her own pulse of energy that broke the poison's shackles. The multicolored smoke was made by the pills that Rainbow Pill Ancestor had thrown out.

　　All of them were peak grade pills that on their own were greatly beneficial to a cultivator.

　　But when they were combined, their effect changed. From a medicine, they became a poison and worked to block the spirit Qi and energy of an expert. Even an immortal Ascension realm expert wouldn't be free from its effects.

　　And if they wanted to dispel its effects, they would either need a peerless healing technique or the cure made by Rainbow Pill Ancestor.

　　No one would have expected for the old woman to burn away her precious lifespan for it. From the vast change in her appearance, it could be seen that she had burned away a large part of it too. 

　　"This is all for the glory of the tribes!" Master Cull Mountain said out loud as she gathered her power.

　　The sacrifice in her lifespan had provided her with a boost in her strength too, and the energy fluctuations coming from here were creating cracks on the ground far below.

　　~SHING~

　　~COUGH~

　　"How!?" But then to her horror, a sword protruded through her chest.

　　"LITTLE SHRUBBY, DO IT!" Lin Mu ordered.

　　~ROAR!~

　　Little Shrubby pounced towards the old woman and clamped his flaming jaws around her and Lin Mu himself.

　　"AHHHHHHH!" The old woman cried out in pain and tried to struggle, but she was being held in place by Lin Mu.

　　Lin Mu's robes had already turned to dust, but his gold skin could hold back against the flames. Additionally, Lin Mu had the affinity to the fire element too and his resistance was good.

　　Little Shrubby could have avoided burning Lin Mu even if he was in his mouth, but in the current situation he needed to use all his power. Lin Mu had told him to do so as well and that he would be fine.

　　The old woman's cries continued for a few seconds before they died down, her tongue and vocal cords having been burned away.

　　~CRUMBLE~

　　Fragments of black coke fell from the flaming jaws of Little Shrubby, being none other than the remains of an Immortal Ascension realm woman.

　　~shua~

　　Little Shrubby opened his jaws, and the flaming figure of Lin Mu walked out, the short sword in his hand.

　　The burning figures struck a terrifying chord in the eyes of everyone that watched it. Even Master Bell Mountain felt like he had made a mistake in attacking the South now.

　　'The Ancestral Bell was right… the warning was far greater than I made it out to be…'
