Chapter 1023 The Heavenly Maiden's Attendant
"You little monster, how dare you stop me?"

The great gentleman had just accidentally killed Yuan Fazhu and was filled with resentment. When he saw the celestial maiden blocking his way, he flew into a rage.

He wielded the Hun Tian Axe, unleashing the power of disintegration. In an instant, the heavens split into nine layers, and the six energies surged forth, spreading out uncontrollably.

The axe, as large as a wheel, spun around, creating a massive vortex of energy, sharp and unparalleled.

With just a slight tremor, the wicked demon not far away was cut open with thousands of wounds, and blood gushed out like a fountain.

Although he escaped the deadly attack, he was severely injured and no longer possessed the strength of the Heavenly Sect.

If the Great Gentleman were to attack him, he could kill him with a single blow from the Heaven-Shattering Axe.

However, there is an even more important enemy to deal with at present.

The celestial maiden's attendant was expressionless, her every move flowing with indescribable grace, as if she were draped in a celestial robe woven from rosy clouds, her sleeves brushing against the mist, ethereal and otherworldly.

He appears to be an independent individual, but anyone with discerning eyes can see that he is merely a puppet, carrying out the will of the Heavenly Maiden.

Every action, even the act of stopping the great lord, was ordered by the heavenly maiden.

The Hun Tian Axe spun and cleaved, its momentum seemingly drawing the universe to its surface and turning it upside down, bringing everything to the brink of collapse.

The Great Nine Heavens Disintegration Technique: With a single axe strike, any target will automatically crumble into dust.

A flawless hand extends out, without skin texture, muscle bulge, or even color or bone structure; it is simply carved from a single piece of beautiful jade.

The owner of the jade hand was a celestial maiden.

Faced with the great gentleman's fierce attack, he neither dodged nor avoided, only using one hand to defend himself.

Don't you want this hand anymore? Even if the whole arm is broken, it won't stop you, let alone just a hand.

An unexpected scene unfolded.

The Hun Tian Axe, carrying the power to reverse heaven and earth, cleaved down and struck the Heavenly Maiden's attendant's palm. He didn't make any fist or palm gestures; instead, his five fingers gently dispersed, showing no sign of gathering power.

This posture is completely different from the principles of martial arts and is not the reaction one should have in a life-or-death confrontation.

But ironically, it was this very hand that brought the fierce attack of the Hun Tian Axe to an abrupt halt.

With a soft sound, not a sharp or ear-piercing collision, the Hun Tian Axe paused at the fingertips.

The gentleman gripped the axe handle with both arms, his waist, shoulders, and back taut like a strong bow, and explosive force poured out like a waterfall, converging on the axe blade.

The rumble of thunder was the sound of power being blocked and vibrating on the axe, unable to be unleashed freely.

The maidservant, Tian Tian, ​​effortlessly blocked the great gentleman's full-force attack with just one hand.

This is an incredibly powerful and terrifying force, far exceeding the capabilities of the Heavenly Sect.

Even Lord Shen wouldn't dare to withstand the full force of the Great Gentleman's attack wielding the Hun Tian Axe with his bare hands.

If even a celestial maiden's attendant is like this, then what about the 'celestial maiden' who is her master? Could she have already reached the level of a martial saint?

The sky is falling!
Among the human warriors, the strongest is the Heavenly Sect's pinnacle, but there is no Martial Saint. Now that the Heavenly Maiden has been born, who can protect her?

The next moment, the Heavenly Maiden's attendant grabbed the Hun Tian Axe and twisted it, while the Great Gentleman moved to counterattack, neutralizing the opponent's power.

But the other hand lashed out with lightning speed, striking the gentleman squarely in the chest.

A burst of lightning exploded in the air, and the Great Gentleman's defenses were activated; it was a magic robe made of golden silk and jade.

The lightning expanded to the size of a water vat, not only covering the body of the Heavenly Maiden's attendant, but also enveloping the Great Lord as he lunged outwards.

A rainbow streaked across the sky and disappeared from sight in the blink of an eye.

What? The great gentleman has already left?
Everyone could see clearly that the Great Lord did not leave on his own; rather, the powerful attack of his golden jade armor was activated, not only blocking the Heavenly Maiden's fatal blow but also taking him away from the battlefield. Considering the strange words of the treacherous demon earlier, it seemed the Great Lord truly possessed protection, and would be taken away should danger arise.

However, without the great gentleman, the already dire situation became even more tense.
Of the Heavenly Sect experts present, only Lord Shen remained, facing a tiger corpse, a treacherous demon, and a Heavenly Maiden who appeared to be a Martial Saint.
Can this once towering pillar of southern Xinjiang turn the tide and resolve this life-or-death crisis?

"Grandmaster, we cannot sit idly by and wait to die!"

Zhou You moved closer to Zhou Nanwang and noticed the strange atmosphere around him when he spoke.

Although there were many people from all over the country, none of them were influential, and their participation wouldn't have made much of a difference.

At the height of a crisis, the power of ordinary people is limited, and they can only go with the flow.

However, even knowing that the enemy is arrogant and will not be merciful after gaining power, one cannot just stand by and watch them grow stronger.

"Get ready, you'll follow me and we'll get started later!"

Zhou Nanwang's expression was calm, and he exuded a strong sense of confidence that calmed people down from their impatience.

The Heavenly Maiden's attendant defeated the Great Lord with a single move, demonstrating extraordinary strength, drawing all eyes to him.

The most dangerous thing is that there is a row of celestial maidens standing behind them, whose auras are exactly the same as the one who made the move. If their strengths are similar, then there is really no hope at all.

The celestial maiden they knelt to welcome descended amidst a somber and oppressive atmosphere.

At this moment, the celestial maiden, apart from the faint resemblance of the 'Southern Frontier Holy Maiden' in her face, was completely a different young girl.

She was expressionless, just like the Heavenly Maiden's attendant—well, to be precise, an upgraded version.

A mist of light rose around the celestial maiden, distorting reality and making it impossible to observe specific details or pinpoint her exact location.

The wicked demon knelt on the ground, crawled to the celestial maiden, and cried out, "Mother!"

The celestial maiden glanced at him, her gaze unwavering, and then looked up straight ahead.

She was looking at Lord Shen!
Lord Shen gripped his Heaven-Supporting Staff, his gaunt figure standing tall and strong like an ancient pine tree in the mountain winds blowing from the southern borderlands.

He slowly raised the Heaven-Supporting Staff, nodded towards the Heavenly Maiden, and asked, "Heavenly Maiden?"

His tone was somewhat sarcastic.

"Be bold!"

The treacherous demon pointed at Lord Shen, "How dare you blaspheme the Mother of All Demons?"

With a whoosh, two or three celestial maidens swiftly flew out, creating distance halfway through their journey, and landed around Lord Shen in a triangular formation.

A celestial maiden easily defeated the great gentleman, but now three men have come to besiege Lord Shen. What will happen?

Lord Shen exhaled two streams of white dragon-like air from his nose, his withered body suddenly swelled, and the Heaven-Supporting Staff in his hand grew longer and thicker.

The man and the stick are in harmony, changing as they please, sometimes long, sometimes short, with endless variations.

In the blink of an eye, Lord Shen transformed into a giant, leaning against a colossal pillar that reached the heavens and stood upright.

Three celestial maidens spun around him like moths, their speed increasing rapidly, and in the blink of an eye, lightning flashed and thunder roared.

Suddenly, Lord Shen moved violently.

The colossal pillar formed from the Sky-Supporting Staff appeared enormous and bulky, difficult to move, yet it seemed weightless in his hands. With a single swing, it swayed three times, striking the heads of the three celestial maidens.

Despite their incredible speed, the Heavenly Maidens' attendants were caught in a precise attack and none escaped.

Under the bombardment of the giant pillar, the three celestial maidens' attendants were weathered and disintegrated from head to toe, completely dissipating into the wind and disappearing without a trace.
