"Accompanying is only the inheritance from my bloodline. That power tells that I must bear the responsibility, walk the earth, and guard the world."
"My father, my ancestor, were all like this."
"But why? Why this damn responsibility? What have I gained? The admiration of the world? Or the so-called glory?"
"I don’t need it!"
"All I want is to live like a normal person!"
The Heaven-Slaying Martial Saint’s angry shouts echoed in everyone’s hearts, a series of incredulous gazes turned toward the elderly figure. So opened their mouths to speak, but ultimately said nothing. Those new Saints who were unaware of the secrets likely found it puzzling.
However, all the Martial Saints who understood the bloodline inheritance of the Heaven-Slaying lineage remained silent.
The Great Yan Martial Saint’s face was complex, but after taking a deep breath, he spoke solemnly:
"That’s no excuse."
"The invasion of the Mountain and Sea Realm has us bearing humiliation for the greater plan. It’s not only you suffering; millions are as well."
"I alone span across the river of ti, watching each blood heir sacrifice themselves for . My heartache is no better than yours, but I know it’s all worth it."
"Heaven-Slaying, think about the images within your bloodline inheritance, consider the generations of effort from your Heaven-Slaying lineage. It’s still not too late to turn back!"
He still wants to persuade the Heaven-Slaying Martial Saint to turn back.
But the Heaven-Slaying Martial Saint angrily responded:
"I can’t turn back anymore!"
His body suddenly expanded, transforming into a giant several hundred feet tall. Then, he grasped his massive blade and swung it furiously, shattering layers of space. The Great Yan Martial Saint was horrified, feeling a vast pressure and a sinking heart.
"You... you’re channeling the power of the Mountain and Sea Realm!"
The scene was chaotic.
Six absolute strong persons fought in pairs, and the remaining Martial Saints had their respective opponents.
Although the ordinary Martial Saints of the Martial Realm held the advantage, everyone understood the real key lay in the battlefield of the absolute strong persons. If victory was decided there, the overall outco would follow.
Currently.
The Heaven-Slaying Martial Saint was clearly overpowering the Great Yan Martial Saint, and victory was only a matter of ti.
Martial Realm’s many Martial Saints felt an overwhelming heaviness in their hearts.
An insider laughed madly:
"Everyone, why not join us in abandoning darkness for light? We’re all heroes of one realm; why be so stubborn?"
So Martial Saints were shaken.
Ning Qi’s eyes glimred with gold.
He had been battling the Black Blood Demon Monarch but had not been using his full strength.
The reason was simple: since things had co to this, it was necessary to clean everything up in one go, exposing all the insiders. Most developnts were as he had expected, including the unexpected ergence of the South Sea Divine Nuns and insiders among the Martial Saints, which was quite normal.
But he hadn’t anticipated that the Heaven-Slaying Martial Saint would choose to defect.
This made him sigh a bit. After learning from the Profound Turtle about the Heaven-Slaying lineage’s contributions to the Martial Realm, he always thought that even the Great Yan Martial Saint’s betrayal was more likely than the Heaven-Slaying Martial Saint’s.
"In this light, the arrangent with the Gu God back then was also likely the Heaven-Slaying Martial Saint’s doing."
Ning Qi’s mind was racing, yet his actions remained swift. The Five Elents Divine Sword Qi slashed away, driving back the Black Blood Demon Monarch’s banner, nearly cutting holes in it and applying enormous pressure on the Black Blood Demon Monarch.
Everything happened in the blink of an eye.
Once an insider began to tempt the other Martial Saints to defect, Ning Qi knew it was ti to act.
The fish had all been netted; there was no need to wait any longer.
"Celestial Sword, defecting now and join in killing others could earn you great credit, but once the dust settles, even if you want to join the Mountain and Sea Realm, there won’t be a chance. Let tell you the truth, the world passage between the Mountain and Sea Realm and the Martial Realm is about to connect. You can still decide now!"
Black Blood Demon Monarch sneered insidiously, attempting to shake Ning Qi’s resolve.
Ning Qi rely smiled calmly:
"Is that so?"
Black Blood Demon Monarch’s heart leapt, foreboding warnings arose.
In the next mont.
His pupils widened abruptly, sensing an unparalleled sharpness cleaving toward him, nearly tearing him apart. The terrifyingly potent Five Elents Divine Sword Qi surged even more!
"Arrggh!!"
A scream echoed.
Almost all the Martial Saints looked in the direction of the sound, their eyes filled with disbelief.
What they beheld.
An arm soared into the sky, and before the banner could reclaim it, it was shredded into pieces by the sword’s edge.
The arm’s owner was none other than the Black Blood Demon Monarch.
The Black Blood Demon Monarch, filled with shock, looked at Ning Qi and shrieked:
"How is this possible? Has he entered the Divine Power Realm? How can he be so strong?"
Pale-faced, he gazed at the five-colored sword qi, his eyes filled with fear and dread. The sword qi, suddenly united, unleashed supre power that even his embryonic Divine Technique couldn’t match. Caught off guard, his arm was severed, and even the demon banner was sliced by half.
The old Profound Turtle laughed heartily, unleashing a green light to tightly bind the South Sea Divine Nuns. The South Sea Divine Nuns panicked, trying to break free to aid the Black Blood Demon Monarch with her White Jade Purification Bottle, but she couldn’t escape. After all, the Profound Turtle hailed from the True Martial Immortal Sect, and though the South Sea Divine Nuns had been granted Immortal Path Techniques by the Mountain and Sea Realm, they were of little advantage.
"Old turtle, get out!" she cursed in anger.
But Gui Changqing laughed cheerfully:
"Have the guts to smash my shell."
The Great Yan Martial Saint, who had been at a complete disadvantage, was also stunned, then laughed wildly:
"The heavens have not forsaken our Martial Realm! The heavens have not forsaken our Martial Realm! Martial Saint Tianjian, truly a peerless talent!"
Boosted by Ning Qi’s strength, the morale of the Martial Realm surged, while the insiders felt an increasing heaviness in their hearts.
If Ning Qi first dealt with the Black Blood Demon Monarch and freed his hand, the outco would turn entirely opposite!
In a split second.
The tides shifted.
In a breath, another Five Elents Sword Qi slashed down, which Ning Qi, having comprehended the baptism of the world’s will, fused the Five Elents Divine Sword Qi into one, its power was truly imnse. The Black Blood Demon Monarch shrieked, retreating swiftly, spitting blood continuously, his black blood banner swelling in an attempt to envelop the sword qi.
But it was useless.
Slashing down with a sword, the demon banner shattered into smithereens, dispersing the dark clouds and blood rain with sword edge.
As the Black Blood Demon Monarch was about to perish under this strike, a Heaven-Reaching Blade Qi slashed down, the giant swung the blade in a sweeping strike, carrying formidable power to intercept.
At the critical mont, the Heaven-Slaying Martial Saint acted.
He forcibly withdrew from the battlefield with the Great Yan Martial Saint, slashing with his blade just in ti to block Ning Qi’s five-colored sword qi aid at the Black Blood Demon Monarch.
The Heaven-Slaying Martial Saint stared at Ning Qi, his voice was deep:
"I underestimated you; it seems you didn’t use your full strength back then."
He naturally didn’t know that Ning Qi had made progress in a short amount of ti; back at True Martial Mountain, even though he didn’t use full strength, the terrifying strength now was unmatched.
Ning Qi sighed lightly:
"You’ve strayed down the wrong path, what a pity."
Angry roars accompanied fierce and domineering blade light:
"Who’s strayed down the wrong path is still uncertain!"
The Heaven-Slaying Martial Saint’s montum surged once more.
"Heaven-Slaying!"
The Heaven-Reaching Blade Qi collided with the five-colored sword qi, the terrifying wave spreading, causing even the other absolute strong persons to feel apprehensive. These two had already surpassed the half-step Divine Power Realm’s strength threshold; although the Heaven-Slaying Martial Saint hadn’t stepped into the Divine Power Realm, with the Mountain and Sea Realm’s bestowed Secret Techniques enhancing him, he barely possessed Divine Power Realm-level strength.
Ning Qi’s eyes shone brightly with gold.
He glanced at the Great Yan Martial Saint who intended to assist and said plainly:
"You handle the other side."
As the words fell.
The five-colored sword qi split into five, morphing back into five sword qis, but it wasn’t over. The five sword qis kept splitting, thousands upon thousands, instantly forming an overwhelmingly dreadful sword array!
The sword array swept, encompassing the Heaven-Slaying Martial Saint, Black Blood Demon Monarch, and South Sea Divine Nuns within.
Ning Qi was intending to fight one against three!
