Chapter 2161 Punishment
If it is on weekdays, these ancestor immortals will not be so easily deceived, but the so-called concern is chaos. The position of the long sword slash in their minds is too important. At this time, they don’t care about it when they see it disappear. At this time, they may not have thought about the danger, but compared to losing it, they still choose to take risks. After all, there are risks in doing anything, and the difference is only the size.
In addition, they were still too confident and believed that they could handle everything. Even if Meng Xiang had any conspiracy, there was no possibility of success in front of them. This confidence came from their realm. They belonged to the small group of people at the peak of the entire universe. Even if they had been sealed by the way of heaven, this idea would not have changed significantly. It can be said that it has been deeply rooted.
Even though they witnessed Meng Xiang's performance with their own eyes and he performed very well, they still looked down on him psychologically, and even subconsciously found a powerful reason that could explain him - it was all because of the existence of the Long Sword Slash.
In fact, this is the component of self-deception. In other words, they cannot accept that Meng Xiang was so powerful when he was still a holy immortal, because once they admit this, it means that they are not as good as him when he was a holy immortal, which is difficult for them to accept that beings who are already accustomed to being above them.
Of course, this does not mean that the Zuxian is a group of people with psychological problems. Even if they know the facts, they are unwilling to change it. This illusion is a good example. She admitted Meng Xiang's strength and placed him on an equal footing with her psychologically. But unfortunately, this change requires time and more reality as support, and it is a pity that their time with Meng Xiang was too short.
To a certain extent, Meng Xiang was able to achieve these ancestral immortals this time because his strategy was not so clever, but he made reasonable use of various conditions. So in the final analysis, they did not lose to Meng Xiang, but to their own arrogance.
If they can recover from this blow, maybe they can learn from lessons, change their mindsets, and re-examine those who are not as good as them in their realm, but are actually very powerful, such as Meng Xiang. In fact, from a certain perspective, they cannot blame them too much. After all, existences like Meng Xiang are almost unique. They will not appear as normal at all. They have different and objective ideas about him, which is understandable.
However, at this time the eleven ancestor immortals had no time to think about these things. When the long sword slash began to burst out with strong light, a strong sense of crisis suddenly appeared in their hearts, and the alarm bell was blowing. At the same time, a strong cold air flowed all over their bodies, from top to bottom, from inside to outside. It penetrated every part and every inch of their bodies. Then they found that they were like a frozen person, and their bodies seemed to have completely lost their control, and what was worse was that their thinking seemed to have also fallen into a state of stagnation.
All the changes that happened in them accurately told them that they were already in extreme danger, and it was impossible for immortals who could become ancestral immortals to not experience all kinds of storms and waves. These eleven ancestral immortals are no exception, but this time the sense of crisis has surpassed the crisis they experienced before.
Even when facing the way of heaven, they never felt so fearful. Of course. This may be because they knew that the way of heaven would not kill them even if they defeated them and sealed them, but the feeling of the long sword slashing them accurately told them that it would really kill them, and that it would destroy both form and spirit, which aroused their fear of death.
Regarding death, don’t look at the ancestor immortals who have lived for so long and have seen countless separations of life and death. They seem to be very open-minded about life and death. In fact, it is not the case at all. Seeing death too much will not make them more free and easy. On the contrary, it will make them more cherish their lives. That is to say, once death comes to them and they are facing death, their performance will not be better than ordinary people, or even more unbearable.
There is no doubt that these eleven ancestor immortals belong to this type, but they are ancestor immortals after all. Even if they have extremely strong fear of death, they will not faint or be confused like ordinary people. Their deep mental cultivation will keep them awake all the time. In fact, this is also a torture for them to a certain extent. However, conscious soberness is also beneficial. For example, they can make some measures before the crisis really comes, so that they can avoid being hurt, and at least reduce the damage.
Although the change of the Long Sword Slash was very fast, these attacked ancestor immortals still showed the qualities that the ancestor immortals should have. They all made self-rescue actions in a very short time, and their actions were surprisingly consistent. They chose to retreat, try to widen the distance between them and the Long Sword Slash, and while retreating, they also tried to defend themselves. At the same time, they also did one thing, which was to attack the Long Sword Slash, but their purpose was not to eliminate it, but to send it out, and the purpose was to widen the distance between them.
If there are outsiders on the scene and see the actions of the ancestor immortals clearly, they will definitely think that they are doing quite well, but there is a prerequisite, that is, they are facing ordinary dangers, and the long sword slash is not listed at all, so what they do can only be destined to be useless.
The strong light bursting out from the long sword is like extremely sharp needles, with extremely fast speed, at least completely surpassing the speed of the ancestral immortals retreating. Compared with it, there is no difference between them and snails crawling at all. From this point of view, it is meaningless whether they retreat or not.
In addition, those lights also have extremely terrifying penetration power, as if everything that blocks them will be easily pierced. Of course, this may not be true, but this is enough for those ancestral immortals. At least their defense is not stronger than a piece of paper in front of them, which means that their defense has no effect.
As for the attack they launched at the Long Sword Slash, it was even more irritating. The light bursting out from it had extremely powerful destructive power. Before their attacks really approached it, they all became sieves, and the destructive power accompanied by the light cleared them all in a very short time. That situation was no better than throwing the fluff into the fire. The actual situation was better than this, and there was no trace left, so their idea was good, but the result was that it made them desperate.
But at this time, the ancestor immortals had no time to pay attention to the fate of the attacks they launched, because they had been hit by the lights from the long sword slash. Then they found that the body that became the ancestor immortals had become extremely powerful was as strong as paper, and was suddenly penetrated by the lights.
The terror that turned into a sieve suddenly hit their hearts, causing a stronger fear in their hearts than when they discovered that the Long Sword Slash had changed. Not only did they fail to move, but their thinking also stopped. It seemed that time had stopped flowing.
Fortunately, they are ancestral immortals, and are not so easily defeated by fear. They found that there were problems with their bodies and minds. Although there were strong fears in their hearts, they were more from the strong light that shot through their bodies. They were piercing through their bodies, spreading strange forces from where they were concentrated, spreading throughout their bodies at an unexpected speed, cutting off their control over their bodies. They also made their thinking fall into a state of almost complete stopping.
The feeling of completely stripping everything they had was unacceptable to these ancestor immortals, so this discovery gave them an extremely heavy blow, but while their mood became worse, they also felt a little relaxed. At least the light that shot their bodies did not kill them all at once, but even so, their situation did not mean that they would be better.
They could not be sure whether Meng Xiang would take advantage of the victory to pursue him. If he really did this, with his strength and their current bad state, even if their realm was higher than him, the number of people was more than ten times higher than him. But if he wanted to deal with them, they could not resist it at all. Even if he was afraid of the punishment of the way of heaven and would not kill them directly, as long as he humiliated them, they could feel that birth was worse than death.
Even if Meng Xiang is kind and doesn't act against them, they will not be safe. You should know that their situation is very bad at this time. Although the speed of the heavenly net becomes slow when it is about to close, the space between them is already very small. As long as it is closed, they will become trapped fish. In their current state, they cannot resist the lethality of the heavenly net, and they are still dead.
After thinking about it, if they want to survive, they must rely on Meng Xiang, at least let him clear the negative impact of the light bursting out from the long sword through their bodies and restore their original state, so that they may survive for a while, but they do not have much hope for this, because they will not be able to forgive each other if they change their place with him.
No matter what they thought, things will continue to develop, but it is good news for them. The situation they were most worried about did not happen. Meng Xiang did not attack them. Maybe it was not that he did not want to deal with them, but that the Long Sword Slash was being attacked by a fierce attack from the net of heaven and earth. He needed to take it back and had no time to take care of them for the time being.
But no matter this, it was finally a good thing that they did not continue to be chased, but other situations they were worried about still happened. Meng Xiang did not take the opportunity to attack them, but the sky and earth net did not let them go, and launched an unprecedented fierce attack on them. Various attacks poured towards them like storms and hit them fiercely.
Suddenly, blood flowers burst out from the mouth, nose, seven orifices of the eleven ancestor immortals and even all over their bodies, and even dyed a large area of space red. It would look quite miserable. If someone said that they would be killed in the next moment, no one would doubt it, but the actual situation is often very different from the manifestation, and this time it is the same.
The ancestor immortals looked miserable as soon as possible, but they were very happy. Under the attack from the net of heaven and earth, they suddenly found that their bodies, which had lost their ability to move due to the piercing of the light from the long sword slash, began to recover. It seemed that the mysterious power that the light passed through the body was decreasing with the blood that burst out from them.
