Firmament Sword Chapter 223 212: Sect Annihilation

This was imdiately followed by a wave of terrified, horrified screams.

"Ah… my… my arm… Why did my arm fall off?"

"I've been cut in half! My body… it's been severed! Heavens, what's happening?"

"My neck is so itchy…"

Severed limbs, dismbered arms, and rolling heads!

The plaza of the Stony Sect, which had just been filled with powerful confidence, was now overwheld by the sky-high stench of blood, instantly transforming into a scene from an Asura Hell.

That thing sweeping in from high above—how could that be a re shockwave? It was clearly a terrifyingly sharp Sword Qi!

This Sword Qi was so sharp and powerful it could tear through anything with devastating ease!

Before this Sword Qi, the group of formidable Inner Sect Disciples and higher-ups of the Stony Sect were as fragile as tofu being sliced by an incomparably sharp blade!

Such a large group of people had absolutely no ability to resist!

In an instant, a river of blood flooded the entire plaza!

Groans, screams, indignation, despair, and deep fear filled the plaza.

The pupils of the Stony Sect Master suddenly dilated, revealing a look of utter horror.

Only then did an incomparably cold voice drift down from the sky.

"Breaking Army Seven Kills."

"Fifth Kill… Breaking Torrent!"

"Ah, who are you? What enmity does my Stony Sect… have with you that would make you go on such a rampage?" the Stony Sect Master roared in terrified fury. "Who in the hell are you?"

"What's going on?" Over here, Xu Su, supported by Guo Ying, was also stunned. He hadn't even considered that the God of Slaughter in the sky above had any connection to him.

'Here to save ? That's impossible!' The thought never even crossed Xu Su's mind.

The most powerful person he knew was, of course, the father he had admired since childhood. But even Xu Ji, whose strength had now reached the realm of a Tier Seven Sword Venerable, couldn't possibly unleash such a sharp, terrifying, and overwhelmingly powerful attack.

However, the voice that had just drifted down from the sky made Xu Su tremble slightly.

'That voice… it's so familiar!'

Guo Ying narrowed her eyes and murmured, "Could it be a senior from my sect who ca here in secret, unable to stand the Stony Sect Master's nonsense?" 'Deep down, Guo Ying was still unwilling to believe the so-called evidence the Stony Sect had presented. She refused to believe that the sect she grew up in would, at its core, be like this filthy, dark sect, engaging in such shady business. Even more, she couldn't believe that her master, who had always doted on her, would marry her off to a scumbag old man like the Stony Sect Master.'

"A senior from your sect?" A mocking smile touched the corner of Xu Su's lips as he said softly, "Weren't you just betrayed enough for one day?"

Guo Ying was speechless. She fell silent and looked up at the sky.

At this point, the people in the plaza had no energy to spare for Guo Ying and Xu Su. They were all completely terrified by that incomparably ferocious Sword Qi from a mont ago.

Guo Ying frowned slightly, realizing this was the best opportunity to leave the Stony Sect. She couldn't help but whisper, "Xu Su, let's go now!"

Although Xu Su was incredibly curious about who his rescuer was, he also understood this wasn't the best ti to find out the truth. He nodded lightly. At the sa ti, so of his strength had returned. During his days in the Stony Sect, he hadn't been inhumanely tortured. It wasn't that the people of the Stony Sect had suddenly beco kind; it was because they had been trying to get the secret of the Ancient Ruins from him. Otherwise, ten of him would have already been tortured to death.

So people tried to step up and block Guo Ying and Xu Su, but the sword in Guo Ying's hand was not to be trifled with.

With the strength of a Tier Five Sword Venerable, combined with the Cultivation Techniques she learned from a major sect, Stony Sect experts of the sa tier were no match for her at all.

Not to ntion, her opponents were constantly on guard against the potential threat from the sky.

The Stony Sect Master tried everything he could to lock onto the enemy in the sky with his Divine Sense, but he discovered that the person was constantly moving. He couldn't lock onto his figure at all!

This discovery sent a chill through the Stony Sect Master's heart. 'The enemy… is actually… moving!'

What did that an?

It ant this person's Body Technique was so fast that even he, a Tier Eight Sword Venerable, couldn't see it clearly!

It ant the enemy's strength completely surpassed that of every expert of the Stony Sect present!

'How can this be?' The Stony Sect Master was filled with incomparable rage. His eyes glowed with a sinister, cold light. Hearing a commotion nearby, he saw that Guo Ying and Xu Su were actually trying to use this opportunity to escape.

This sent the Stony Sect Master into a fury. "Seize that wretched pair for !"

PFFT PFFT PFFT PFFT…

Suddenly, from the sky, specks of cold light rained down like starlight, falling into the crowd of Stony Sect mbers in the plaza below.

Instantly, the dozen or so figures charging toward Xu Su and Guo Ying abruptly exploded!

'So Shaking Light Burst… can actually be used like this.' In the sky, Xu Luo's face lit up with surprise as he muttered to himself. Then, his expression filled with an incredibly dense killing intent.

"He's here to save those two!"

"He really is here to save them!"

"Sect Leader… save …" A Stony Sect Elder, a hole pierced between his brows, stared at their Sect Leader with eyes full of horror. As he finished speaking, with a BANG, his head exploded like a waterlon smashed by a sledgehamr, sending red and white matter spraying in all directions.

The Stony Sect Master could no longer hold back. He let out a long howl, shot into the air, and charged toward the nearly invisible figure in the void. "I'll fight you to the death!"

SMACK!

With a crisp crack, the Stony Sect Master's head was swatted into pulp. At the sa ti, a huge, bloody hole appeared in his chest!

A pale yellow shadow flashed past and vanished!

"Heavens, the Sect Leader is dead!"

"The Sect Leader is dead!"

"Run!"

"The Sect Leader is really dead!"

In the plaza below, the people of the Stony Sect scattered like terrified dogs, no longer caring about stopping Xu Su and Guo Ying. They only wished their parents had given them two more legs.

Guo Ying and Xu Su stared blankly at the sky. Even now, they still hadn't figured out who had saved them.

"Senior, Xu Su will never forget this life-saving grace! Can Senior please send a ssage with your na so that I may repay you in the future!" the weakened Xu Su suddenly shouted toward the sky.

A thought transmitted directly into Xu Su's mind, leaving him completely stunned. He stood there, dazed, for a long mont.

"Big brother, you used to protect . Now, it's my turn to protect you."

'Xu Luo… It's actually… Xu Luo! My little brother!' The mix of ecstasy, shock, and disbelief that flooded Xu Su's heart made him feel, in that instant, as if he had been filled with limitless strength.

"HAHAHAHAHA!" Xu Su threw his head back and laughed maniacally, making Guo Ying, who was beside him, think he'd been driven mad by the shock.

"Kill!" Xu Su faced a fleeing Stony Sect disciple and thrust out a palm!

BAM!

The Stony Sect disciple coughed up blood and was sent flying, killed on the spot by Xu Su's palm strike!

Words could not describe the frustration of the other fleeing Stony Sect disciples. A man who looked so weak he could pass out at any mont was suddenly as ferocious as a bull in heat. What the fuck? Were they even supposed to have a chance?

Guo Ying also hated the people of the Stony Sect to the core. She attacked with her sword. The power of a Tier Five Sword Venerable was enough to overwhelm most of the people present. Even the few who were stronger than her were more terrified of the threat from the sky. Who had the heart to fight? All they could think about was escaping.

A Stony Sect Elder, stabbed through the chest by Guo Ying's sword, had blood trickling from the corner of his mouth. He glared at her with venomous hatred and, with his last breath, cursed through gritted teeth, "You little bitch, don't forget your sect! They will never let you get away with what you've done today!"

Guo Ying gave a cold smile. "That's not for you to worry about. Die, you old dog!"

She pulled back her long sword, and the Stony Sect Elder died completely.

The situation on the field had been completely, subversively reversed.

Those who fled the fastest died the earliest. The mont that pale yellow shadow appeared in their vision was the mont of their death!

"This thing... what the hell is it?"

"So fast... so strong!"

"Was I killed by a Spirit Beast?"

As for Xu Luo, he executed the Shaking Light Step, appearing like a bolt of lightning next to the most powerful Stony Sect experts. His sword, Lan, flashed in his hand, shimring with a brilliant, aqua-blue radiance. Each flash took a life.

This wasn't a battle; it was a slaughter!

One man, one cat.

Slaughtering an entire sect!

Granted, this was just a small, third-rate sect, a re vassal to a super-sect.

But in the eyes of the mortal world, it was still an untouchable existence!

Its power affected thousands of households. There were countless people like Ghost Qi who would give anything to kowtow and join the Stony Sect.

And yet, before Xu Luo, such a sect was nothing more than a bunch of clay chickens and pottery dogs—utterly vulnerable!

If the people of the Stony Sect had been able to cast aside their fear from the very beginning, unite, and fight back together, then even with the huge power-up Xu Luo received from his recent seclusion, even if he could unleash the Breaking Army Seven Kills' Fifth Kill: Breaking Torrent, he still wouldn't have been able to single-handedly overturn an entire sect.

In fact, just managing to rescue Xu Su and Guo Ying would have been considered a victory.

Unfortunately for them, the mont Xu Luo appeared, he gave the Stony Sect a terrifying display of his might.

That Sword Qi was too powerful—so powerful that no one believed it was an attack a Sword Venerable could possibly unleash!

So powerful that in that single mont, the people of the Stony Sect, including their now-dead Sect Leader, completely lost all will and courage to resist!

Blood flowed into a river.

The entire rear mountain of the Stony Sect was filled with the stench of blood rising to the heavens. Cries of misery echoed everywhere—a tragic scene of hell on earth.

By the end, even Guo Ying felt a little scared. Xu Su, on the other hand, seed tireless, energetically hunting down every last person from the Stony Sect.

It wasn't that he was cruel and bloodthirsty. The main reason was that Xu Su didn't want Xu Luo to be exposed!

Although Xu Luo already possessed a level of power he could scarcely imagine, he was, in the end, a young man from the mortal world. He didn't have the support of a suffocatingly powerful super-sect behind him.

Once Xu Luo was exposed too early, Dubhe, the sect behind Guo Ying, would definitely not let them go.

'But… that's sothing to worry about after they find out! For now, at least, every mont I can delay my brother's exposure to the sects is a mont gained!'

By the end of the slaughter, there were almost no survivors left on the Stony Sect's rear mountain.

From beginning to end, Xu Luo and Master Mao never once appeared in anyone's sight.

Finally, Xu Luo sent a final voice transmission to his older brother, then left quietly with Master Mao.

A sect that was powerful in the eyes of countless people in the mortal world was thus, annihilated.
