Watching the approaching Fla Giant Sword, Luo Xiu's gaze sharpened, a hint of gravity in his expression.
This giant sword, ford from sword fire, was even more powerful than his Heavenly Vermilion Sword of Ten Thousand Prisons!
After all, the Power of Laws was different from Divine Skills.
Divine Skills surpassed Taoist Arts, and Laws surpassed Divine Skills. A Divine Skill channeled through the Power of Laws was comparable to a Divine Technique!
He's got sothing, but not much.
Though Luo Xiu did not underestimate his enemy, he didn't take the Sword Fire Ancestor too seriously either. The cultivation granted by the Ancient God Inner Pill, while not yet at the level of the Heavenly Emperor, was more than enough to crush a Venerable One without a doubt.
"One Sword All Creation."
Luo Xiu casually swung his sword.
The air between heaven and earth seed to freeze in an instant. Only the Sword Light, fused with the Tricolor Liuli Thunder, cut through The Void at a despairing speed!
BOOM!
The sword fire and the Glazed Thunder collided, canceling each other out.
The Sword Fire Ancestor hastily summoned his Magical Treasures, creating a protective barrier that covered a radius of several hundred yards. He feared that the aftershock of the powerful blast would harm the disciples of his sect.
anwhile, Luo Xiu was sent flying back once again.
Seeing this, the disciples raised their arms and cheered, their faces filled with pride! They looked at Luo Xiu as if he were a mouse.
Seeing Luo Xiu repelled again, the Sword Fire Ancestor's confidence swelled, and he sneered, "It seems, Your Majesty the Azure Emperor, that you're all talk."
However, what the Sword Fire Ancestor didn't know was that Luo Xiu had retreated not because the rebound from the clash of Laws was too strong, but because he was afraid of injuring Xia Chan in his arms. After all, he was fighting while holding a woman, so he had to split his focus to ensure she was safe.
Facing the Sword Fire Ancestor's ridicule, Luo Xiu just smiled without a word and suddenly stabilized his position in mid-air.
Xia Chan said with concern, "Luo Xiu, maybe you should…"
Luo Xiu suddenly interjected, "This old fellow's sword fire is quite interesting. It's a fine Fire Path Law. I must find a way to snatch it."
Xia Chan was speechless. Even at a ti like this, he's still thinking about soone else's Power of Laws.
Just then, the Sword Fire Ancestor spoke again, "However, for you to block my sword fire twice in a row, you are indeed worthy of the na Azure Emperor. It's a pity that the era of the Azure Emperor is long past."
Luo Xiu smiled faintly. "To think you find it 'surprising' that I could block your sword fire twice. It just goes to show how little you're capable of, you old turtle."
The Sword Fire Ancestor huffed, "Enough. We'll see how long you can keep up this arrogance."
Suddenly, the sword fire erupted!
The Sword Fire Ancestor's entire body was enveloped in flas as his Life Wheel manifested behind him. A sacred and terrifying power instantly filled the space between heaven and earth!
In that mont, the entire Tianjian City was blanketed by this oppressive might, causing all living things to tremble!
This was the power of a Venerable One!
The disciples' faces were full of adoration, their cheers growing even louder!
"The Ancestor is finally getting serious!"
"What an astonishing aura!"
"As expected of our Ancestor! With such power, he is unparalleled, invincible in all the world!"
"If the Ancestor uses his full strength, I fear the Azure Emperor won't even be qualified to trade blows with him!"
"..."
Hearing the cheers and discussions of his disciples, the Sword Fire Ancestor felt a surge of pride, for a mont believing himself to be as invincible as they claid.
"I don't wish to waste any more ti on you, nor are you worthy of it. Your Majesty, it is ti for to send you on your way!"
Luo Xiu's expression remained calm as he spoke lightly, "Gray-bearded old dog, yapping madly. You are indeed not worth my ti."
SHINK!
As his words fell, a strange sound cut through the air, like a hard crystal being pierced.
At the sa ti, the Sword Fire Ancestor's body shuddered and rapidly went rigid.
Before he knew what was happening, the Mysterious Central Sword had appeared before him and pierced straight through his chest!
This sudden turn of events plunged the entire scene into silence.
The raised hands of the Divine Sect Disciples froze in mid-air, the smiles on their faces slowly solidifying.
Luo Xiu looked at the Mysterious Central Sword impaled in the Sword Fire Ancestor and smiled faintly. "This ability of yours is quite useful."
After rging with the Mysterious Yellow Iron, the Mysterious Central Sword had gained a new ability from the fusion of Mysterious Yellow Qi and Fortune-Forming Power.
It was the ability to hide in The Void! Within a certain range, it could ignore spatial distance and strike a target instantly.
WHOOSH!
The Mysterious Central Sword flew out from the Sword Fire Ancestor's body and returned to Luo Xiu's side, circling him proudly a few tis as if to show off.
In front of Luo Xiu, this peerless, ferocious sword was as docile as a kitten. So much so that even if Luo Xiu were to send it to a group of won to be "played with," it wouldn't dare to disobey.
Luo Xiu looked at the Sword Fire Ancestor, whose aura was rapidly dissipating, and knew there was no need to continue the fight. He retracted the Aura of the Dead, exited his Grim Reaper Form, and slowly descended to the ground, still holding Xia Chan.
Xia Chan gazed at his handso profile, her beautiful eyes shimring with a strange light. To defeat a Venerable One with just a single sword… just how strong is he now?
「A short while later.」
The Sword Fire Ancestor, his aura completely gone, crashed to the ground.
Having had his Physical Body pierced by a Mysterious Yellow Instrunt, ten lives would not have been enough to save him. However, relying on the formidable cultivation of the Respectable Realm, he could still cling to life for a little longer, to take a few more looks at this world.
"Ancestor—!"
"How… how is this possible?"
"Our Ancestor is so powerful, how could he be defeated with just one sword…?"
"He cheated! That demon launched a sneak attack!"
"A dishonorable victory!"
Master Ping's gaze swept over them, fierce and terrifying. He roared, "All of you, shut the fuck up! What's all the racket? A bunch of spineless cowards, can't you take a loss?"
His roar thundered through the void, frightening all the disciples into a deathly silence.
Then, under the fearful and despairing gazes of all the Divine Sect Disciples, Luo Xiu slowly walked over and planted his foot on the Sword Fire Ancestor's chest.
"Protect the Ancestor!" a disciple suddenly yelled.
Instantly, fear turned to fury for so disciples, who drew their swords and charged at Luo Xiu!
"Xuanzhong," Luo Xiu called out suddenly.
The Mysterious Central Sword imdiately flew to his side, its blade quivering lightly as if awaiting orders.
Luo Xiu said calmly, "Leave none alive."
The Mysterious Central Sword, which had been aching for a battle, was overjoyed to receive Luo Xiu's permission. It flew up and nuzzled against his face, as if fawning over him, before transforming into a streak of Sword Light and plunging into the crowd to wreak havoc.
The next mont, shrill screams echoed across the training ground.
The Elders at the Emperor Realm managed to put up so resistance.
As for the disciples below the Emperor Realm, they died without ever knowing how it happened.
"Tell everything you know about the Heaven's Aegis Army," Luo Xiu asked indifferently, looking down at the Sword Fire Ancestor beneath his foot.
The Sword Fire Ancestor's voice was strained. "Spare… spare !"
Luo Xiu remained expressionless. "It was not easy for you to cultivate to your current Dao Fruit. I understand your fear of death, but unfortunately, no one can save you now. You should be well aware of that yourself."
Hearing this, the Sword Fire Ancestor was filled with despair. He gritted his teeth and said, "I will tell you… everything I know. You can kill , but I hope you… will spare my disciples. They are innocent."
"Innocent?"
Hearing this, Luo Xiu raised an eyebrow aningfully.
"You speak of innocence, yet you don't ntion a word about how these disciples of yours use the Divine Sect's power to bully n, abduct won, and commit arson and plunder.
"Perhaps not every single one of them is wicked to the core, but since they have enjoyed the glory of the Swordfire Divine Sect, they must also bear all of its calamities.
"Besides… they all want to rush over and kill to avenge you right now. If I don't slaughter them all, how could I possibly be worthy of their loyalty?"
Hearing this, the Sword Fire Ancestor's eyes wavered, and he fell silent.
If I don't slaughter you all, how can I be worthy of your loyalty… He had once said those very words himself, to the three thousand soldiers of the Heaven's Aegis Army.
He glared at Luo Xiu, gritting his teeth. "Then you… can forget about learning anything about the Heaven's Aegis Army…"
Suddenly, a terrifying aura surged from beneath Luo Xiu's foot!
"Run!" Master Ping yelled.
This old bastard is trying to self-destruct his Dantian!
Luo Xiu's gaze darkened. He didn't flee. Instead, his body instantly erupted with lightning as he stomped violently on the Sword Fire Ancestor's abdon. Before the old man could even begin to self-destruct, Luo Xiu obliterated him with the Glazed Thunder.
In an instant, the Sword Fire Ancestor was reduced to a pile of glassy fragnts on the ground.
Luo Xiu sighed. "A pity. With his body and soul both obliterated, there's no Residual Soul to capture."
Suddenly, a wisp of fire flickered to life among the glazed fragnts.
A pulsating fla erged from the pile and tried to fly away.
With lightning reflexes, Luo Xiu shot out his hand and caught it.
Master Ping flew over, and after observing it for a mont, he said, "This must be the treasure he used to comprehend that Fire Path Law."
Luo Xiu opened his palm and stared at the strange fla, sensing the rich Law Trace within it. "I suppose this wisp of fla is the very foundation of the Swordfire Divine Sect."
"This trophy is mine!"
Suddenly, a palm-sized girl flew out from between Luo Xiu's brows, landed on his hand, and joyfully pounced on the wisp of fla.
Luo Xiu was startled to see the tiny girl in his palm so overco with excitent. Having been the "landlord" for the Indestructible Divine Fla for so long, this was the first ti he had ever seen his "little tenant" so agitated. It was clear this wisp of fla was a true treasure.
GULP. GULP.
While Luo Xiu was lost in thought, the Indestructible Divine Fla had already stuffed the fla into her mouth and swallowed it. She then patted her bulging little belly with a satisfied expression and sat down comfortably in Luo Xiu's palm.
"After eating this, I can evolve and cultivate a flesh-and-blood Dao Body! In the future, I'll definitely reach the sa realm as the Lord of the Divine Fire!"
Luo Xiu asked curiously, "What kind of fire is this?"
"This is a Chaos Fire Seed, the sa kind as ! It's just a sha that old man just now hadn't fully comprehended and utilized it. Otherwise, you really might not have been his match."
"Nima!"
Hearing this, Master Ping's narrow eyes flew wide open. He stomped his feet, livid with regret, and snarled, "A Chaos Fire Seed! Such a peerless treasure, and you just let her swallow it like that!"
"Ahhh! Luo Xiu, make this wasteful little brat spit it out!" Master Ping looked like he was about to lose his mind.
"Hmph!" The Indestructible Divine Fla put her hands on her hips and glared at Master Ping. "Stinky bottle, do you want to burn you?"
Hearing this, Master Ping scurried behind Luo Xiu in fright. He feared neither heaven nor earth, only An Ran and the Indestructible Divine Fla.
Just then, the Indestructible Divine Fla leaped from Luo Xiu's hand. Before she even hit the ground, a radiant light swirled around her.
「A mont later.」
When the swirling radiance dissipated, Luo Xiu could only stare in a daze.
Before him now stood a little girl, about the sa size as Dou Dou
