250: Shocking reversal, killed with one slap!
The resplendent Law surged upwards in defiance.
A terrifying pressure that blotted out the sky descended, as if an entire azure world was crashing down from above!
"How are you..."
Mo Xie cried out in shock, his expression turning pale as paper.
How could his movements be so fast!?
Facing this palm strike, filled with resplendent celestial might, at such close range, a sense of insurmountable fear and dread arose within him.
But it was too late for regrets.
As the sense of impending death grew stronger, he hurriedly summoned another top-tier defensive Treasure Artifact.
Hum!!
Strange ripples permeated the air, with Laws rising and falling, instantly solidifying into a brilliant pagoda.
The pagoda, radiating five-colored light, rapidly expanded, and the divine light flowing down from it shielded Mo Xie in an instant.
This pagoda was forged entirely from extraterrestrial profound iron, and combined with the defensive Formation branded on its surface, it was sufficient to withstand a full-force strike from a Saint Realm Expert.
In the past, the appearance of this pagoda would have been enough to protect Mo Xie's life.
But today, Kong Wu Dao's palm strike was too terrifyingly boundless; the protective barrier condensed by the entire pagoda was of no use at all.
Boom!!
Kong Wu Dao's palm struck the pagoda solidly.
The flowing light surrounding the pagoda flickered between bright and dark.
After emitting a shattered wail, it didn't even last for a single breath before instantly shattering into powder!
But the remaining power of Kong Wu Dao's palm strike did not diminish.
While shattering the pagoda, it also slammed directly onto Mo Xie's chest.
Pfft!!
Mo Xie's flesh and blood melted and shattered rapidly like thin ice, instantly exploding into a mist of blood that filled the sky.
The surroundings were deathly silent.
Countless Cultivators witnessed this scene, as if struck by lightning, their minds instantly going blank.
Especially Wu Huang and the others, who had believed Mo Xie's sneak attack was successful and that Kong Wu Dao would undoubtedly die.
At this moment, they were so shocked that their Divine Souls were almost pulled out of their bodies; their pupils contracted violently, and their voices trembled: "This... how is this possible...!?"
"Mo Xie clearly succeeded in his sneak attack! His blade had already pierced into Kong Wu Dao's heart!!"
"How is it that Kong Wu Dao is completely fine!?"
The scene before them was too dreamlike and unbelievable.
Even though it was happening right before their eyes, they were unwilling to admit the truth.
Kong Wu Dao, who should have been killed by the sneak attack, was completely unharmed, and had even backhanded the sneak-attacking Mo Xie into a mist of blood!
Just moments before, when Mo Xie launched his fatal sneak attack.
It was as if time had frozen, leaving everyone stunned and dazed.
They couldn't even believe that Mo Xie had truly succeeded.
Plunging that black-gold long blade, which clearly exuded an eerie aura, into the location of Kong Wu Dao's heart!!
Coupled with the fact that Mo Xie's cultivation had already reached the God King Realm.
Such a fatal sneak attack, combined with Kong Wu Dao being completely unguarded, meant he should have died with regret!!
Many even showed expressions of pity and emotion.
"Sigh! Who would have thought that the dignified Divine Son Kong Wu Dao, a top-tier ancient Prodigy, would actually fall into the hands of this despicable sneak-attacking coward! Lamentable! Truly lamentable!"
"Is a sneak attack the act of a despicable coward? There are countless heroes in this world; one can only blame Divine Son Kong Wu Dao for underestimating Mo Xie, and ultimately stumbling!"
"Hahaha! Kong Wu Dao is dead! Our path to the Dao finally has one less formidable opponent!"
Seeing Mo Xie's black-gold long blade pierce into Kong Wu Dao's heart.
Countless watching Cultivators displayed expressions of pity, terror, mockery, or excitement.
At that moment, Mo Xie's successful sneak attack caused the entire world to boil over in chaos.
When countless Cultivators felt that Mo Xie had successfully replaced Kong Wu Dao's position and was fortunate enough to become the new generation's young leader.
The scene that followed left everyone stunned like clay statues, their features twisted in extreme shock, filled with disbelief.
Mo Xie's fatal sneak attack had no effect whatsoever.
Kong Wu Dao's heart had not been pierced through at all!!
While this scene shocked everyone, they also found it somewhat inconceivable.
After all, except for Mo Xie himself, from everyone else's perspective, Mo Xie's black-gold long blade had already plunged into Kong Wu Dao's body.
Why... why did Kong Wu Dao not suffer any damage!?
Boom!!
Just as everyone was filled with shock and terror.
Kong Wu Dao raised his hand again and casually unleashed a palm strike.
Mo Xie used all the means at his disposal to resist.
But he had no power to resist whatsoever.
The light screen condensed around his body instantly shattered into powder, and Mo Xie himself was slapped into a mist of blood by Kong Wu Dao!!
This sudden reversal was truly shocking.
No one expected it.
Kong Wu Dao, who had suffered a fatal sneak attack, was not only completely unaffected.
On the contrary, Mo Xie, who had held the absolute advantage, was instead slapped to death by Kong Wu Dao as casually as swatting a fly!!
High above the firmament, Kong Wu Dao stood in the void, his white clothes fluttering.
Compared to the shocked and dazed expressions of others, who were being constantly flipped by the reversals.
Kong Wu Dao remained indifferent.
As if Mo Xie's fatal sneak attack just now had always been within his control and expectations.
And that was indeed the case.
Before Wu Huang burned his Origin essence blood earlier.
The hint of surprise in the depths of his eyes, though fleeting, had been clearly captured by him.
Coupled with the fact that he had long sensed Mo Xie's silent arrival.
He naturally understood Wu Huang's intentions instantly.
Wu Huang had undoubtedly acted out being forced into a desperate situation.
Unhesitatingly burning his Origin essence blood to wage a final life-or-death struggle, in order to attract his attention head-on.
Waiting for the right moment to arrive.
The silently arriving Mo Xie would take advantage of him being distracted by Wu Huang to launch a fatal sneak attack from behind.
Must say, these two guys cooperated really well.
If he hadn't left a Divine Soul mark on Mo Xie in advance.
He might have actually been tricked here.
Of course, even if he had been tricked, it would be of no consequence.
If anyone could take his life through a sneak attack or assassination.
He would have died countless times in that past era.
After slapping Mo Xie into a mist of blood.
He did not receive the System notification for successfully killing the Son of Destiny.
Clearly, this kid Mo Xie still had an ace up his sleeve.
Of course, this was also within Kong Wu Dao's expectations.
After all, this guy Mo Xie had been digging graves for so many years.
The trump cards on him were far beyond those of previous Sons and Daughters of Destiny.
To kill him completely, it would still require some effort.
"Kong Wu Dao!"
Just then.
A panicked and anxious voice suddenly sounded.
A surge of white light appeared on the horizon.
Before anyone could even see clearly.
Nangong Xinyue instantly broke free from the encirclement of several ancient Prodigies and appeared anxiously in front of Kong Wu Dao.
"Kong Wu Dao! Are you okay?"
Nangong Xinyue hurriedly released a Divine Thought to check Kong Wu Dao's injuries.
Come to think of it, this was the first time Nangong Xinyue had shown such an anxious and flustered expression.
After all, from her perspective, that kid Mo Xie had also succeeded in his sneak attack.
Although she believed in Kong Wu Dao's powerful strength.
But the Myriad Domains of the Heavens were vast and boundless, with all kinds of Prodigies and monsters emerging one after another.
There had been top-tier ancient Prodigies in the past who had capsized in the gutter, falling at the hands of some unknown minor characters.
