The figure of the giant serpent was something Feng Shun had never expected.
Forget him, all the people that were watching this were unable to grasp this.
It was literally the clouds spitting apart to show there power. And when they finally did, a pressure that was unseen ever before that was felt. It shook not only just the people watching it at the tournament but also the people who were appreciating the battle far way in the city or even beyond it.
The gaping mouth of the serpent was massive and easily fit a mountain inside it. Even the large illusory figure of the Emperor was small against it and was easily swallowed.
"What in the name of holy ancestors…" The elders watching the scene were left speechless.
Even High Elder Juxue who knew exactly how strong the Imperial Might Talisman was left astounded at the sight. He had barely recovered from the initial collision and had just gotten up when he saw it all.
"The power of a Transcendent wiped out… just like that." High Elder Juxue muttered.
Feng Shun was also trying to figure out how something like this would be possible. Meanwhile Feng Baxing was already on his knees, having lost his footing from the shocking scene.
"This… This…" Feng Baxing couldn't even muster any words properly and was left a jittering mess.
But what they didn't realize yet was the fact that giant cloud serpent was not done yet. It didn't disappear after having swallowed the illusory figure.
Instead it hovered in the sky and glared down at Feng Baxing.
The mere look of the colossal cloud serpent was enough to make Feng Baxing's heart almost stop. It was now that the great pressure focused on him, and made him slam onto the ground face first.
~THUD~
~Crack~
The pain from his broken nose didn't even have chance to register before Feng Baxing felt an even greater pain. His lungs felt like they were burning and it made him gasp.
"HAAH—" Feng Baxing tried to breath but it only made things worse
Every breath he took was frilled with agony and made him feel like what he was breathing wasn't air but fire.
His diaphragm felt like it had turned into lead and his chest felt like it was being weighed down by boulder.
'What is… how can this…' Being put in internal agony made the man unable to say anything physically.
And while Feng Baxing writhed in pain on the ground, other people were also starting to find it hard to breath. Each breath they took left them gasping for more.
It was as if the very air itself had become thin and was getting thinner by every second. Only Lin Mu could breath normally and had an inkling of what was happening.
It was almost unbelievable to everyone since they weren't exactly mortals. As cultivators they didn't have a regular need to breath. Even if they were kept in an airless room, they would still be able to survive for a while.
'That Cloud Serpent and the air… this is the Saintess' work no doubt.' Lin Mu knew there was no one that could even come close to doing something like this in the Rust Sky World.
Of course, Lin Mu didn't know that beyond the sky there was another 'fight' happening.
"AAAAAAAAAAARGHHHHH!" All of a sudden a blood curdling cry was heard pulling Lin Mu's attention.
The cry had come from none other than Feng Baxing of course. No one knew how he had managed to get enough air to let out cry like that, but it was certainly bad enough to make one flinch just from hearing it.
~splat~
~splat~
~splat~
And a moment later, Feng Baxing's body spontaneously started to pop, blood bursting out from him. The veins on his arms exploded causing blood to splatter everywhere while bulges started to appear on his body.
~splat~
Each of the bulges would swell up before popping due to being unable to expand anymore.
It was unknown how an immortal was getting injured like that. But the people who were a bit more knowledgeable would realize that Feng Baxing was injured a lot worse than it looked.
'His meridians have all exploded…' High Elder Juxue and Feng Shun thought.
It was terrifying to see someone undergo something like this and made everyone shake in their boots. It didn't take much for them to realize the one causing all this was none other than the colossal Cloud Serpent in the sky.
There was no other explanation for it other than this.
Feng Baxing's suffering didn't last long though, as the man's mind couldn't take it. His eyes rolled to the back of his head and he lost consciousness.
No one knew what was the extent of Feng Baxing's injuries and no one dared to check it either. After all, the colossal cloud serpent was still watching them.
~HISS~
Then, with a terror inducing hiss as a last warning, the Cloud Serpent dissipated. It turned into normal clouds which then just flowed away.
Absolute silence was left in the area as no one dared to utter a peep.
They were still too shocked and traumatized from it all and needed to process it.
'Looks like the Saintess was watching every move and acted just in time.' Lin Mu reckoned.
~sigh~
Letting out a tired sigh, Lin Mu walked up to the Crown Prince, who had just managed to gather his wits.
"I didn't expect this to happen." Lin Mu spoke.
"Neither did I…" Feng Shun said gazing at the comatose figure of his brother.
While Feng Shun had intended to teach Feng Baxing a lesson by getting him defeated by Lin Mu, he would have never thought it would reach such a drastic situation.
"Restrain him and take him away." High Elder Juxue finally ordered, causing a few people from the temple to check up on Feng Baxing.
~gasps~
"All his meridians are obliterated and his Dantian has burst apart!" The people who had checked on Feng Baxing said in shock.
