Lin Tonghai wields the Human Immortal Sword!
Ye Qingchen also has his strongest sword strike!
This sword.
It embodies Ye Qingchen’s eighteen years of arduous cultivation, driven by the Nine Revolutions Star Technique and the Ancient Dragon Elephant Technique, achieving the ultimate form of the Ten Directions Heaven-Breaking Array. Without the Heaven-Slaying Immortal Sword Scripture, no sword can rival this one!
When brave n et on a narrow path, victory goes to the courageous!
In the midst of shocked gazes, two fierce sword lights, like lightning capable of destroying heaven and earth, suddenly flashed through the void and then collided fiercely!
To outsiders.
This is undoubtedly a heaven-shocking strike!
However.
What people didn’t expect was that Ye Qingchen’s sword cleaved through Lin Tonghai’s Human Immortal Sword like a knife slicing through butter, directly penetrating it!
It cleaved halfway through, only then the sword started to slow down.
"Crack!"
Nonetheless.
Lin Tonghai’s sword was equally formidable, as a cracking sound echoed, one Spirit Sword could no longer withstand the terrifying Sword Qi from the opposite side, and it exploded, turning into countless fragnts!
Then the second one!
The third one!
The fourth one!
...
Until finally, only the Gui Xu Sword remained, but even it was covered in cracks.
However.
The first to shatter was Lin Tonghai’s sword light.
"How is this possible!"
Lin Tonghai exclaid in surprise; all his fighting spirit and battle intent were completely dissolved by this sword strike. With almost no hesitation, he swiftly rotated and retreated backward faster than he had arrived!
But.
No matter how fast Lin Tonghai retreated, how could he be faster than Ye Qingchen’s sword?
As Lin Tonghai retreated, Ye Qingchen’s sword was already upon him, falling directly onto his Asura Demon Aspect, ford entirely of Human Immortal Power!
Then even this Asura Demon Aspect couldn’t withstand it, torn apart on the spot, completely shattering into countless black light shadows, quietly dissolving into the void.
Retreat again!
Lin Tonghai retreated further!
However.
It was already too late!
In an instant, Ye Qingchen’s sword swiftly sliced through the void, vehently burst forth, and plunged directly into Lin Tonghai’s chest, piercing through and out of his back!
As the sword struck, Lin Tonghai’s body suddenly shook; trying to retreat was already too late, leaving him utterly collapsed in the void!
"How... how is this possible?"
He widened his eyes in disbelief, saying, "But I am a Human Immortal..."
However.
No one responded to him.
In the next mont, Lin Tonghai’s body trembled violently, countless Sword Qi erupted from within, and he completely lost balance, crashing down from the air, lost in silence.
Ye Qingchen’s sword had already imbued all the Sword Qi into Lin Tonghai’s body, tearing apart his internal organs. Enduring until now was solely due to his foundation as a Human Immortal!
The scene fell into dead silence.
Not a crow or sparrow could be heard.
"Is Lin Tonghai dead?" Lanyu stared in disbelief at the young man in a blue robe standing in the void, filled with profound shock.
As for the other disciples of Daluo Sect, they were montarily at a loss for words.
"Dead!"
Sea of Zhou nodded heavily.
Lu Yanwu suddenly covered her mouth, tears silently streaming down.
Kong Jing was so excited she nearly jumped up.
She thought she’d never witnessed a battle as spectacular as today. Ye Qingchen, with the cultivation of a youth at the Celestial Venerable Eighth Layer, slaying a Human Immortal at Earth Spirit Mountain, this battle was destined to be Heaven-shocking!
...
Three days later.
To the north of Liehuo Country, there stretches an expanse of rolling mountains and rivers.
These mountains and rivers are not considered famous, but a series of continuous palaces are nestled within them. In an area spanning a thousand miles, there are scarcely any inhabitants. From afar, one can see this mountain range shrouded in a veil of black mist.
This is precisely the Yin Evil Qi, which is conducive to the cultivation of demonic arts by these cultivators, thus making this place the headquarters of the Ten Thousand Gods Sect!
Though the Ten Thousand Gods Sect cannot compare with a major sect like Taotian Palace, it still boasts countless Celestial Venerables. Under its command are three branches: Blood Kill Hall, Celestial Kill Hall, and Earth Kill Hall.
However, Earth Kill Hall has suffered a calamity, with most of its strength lost. As for the high-level mbers of Celestial Kill Hall, they have not been seen for several days, causing a sense of unease among the disciples of the Ten Thousand Gods Sect.
At this mont.
In the largest black stone hall within the Ten Thousand Gods Sect, all the sect’s high-ranking mbers are gathered. At the center of the hall sits a statue of an Asura with a fearso visage.
This Asura Demon Elephant, while not as enormous as the one at the Celestial God Sect on the Barbaric Continent, is even more soul-stirring.
It seems as though with just one glance, a person’s very spirit would be completely devoured.
"Not only is Lin Tonghai, the Hall Master of Celestial Kill Hall, missing, but even Chang Yuchun, Zhu Wu, and Liu Bohan have not been seen for days. Even Li Shanchang and Chen Ming are nowhere to be found. Just where have they gone?"
Beneath the Demon Elephant, a black-robed elder sits cross-legged.
He resembles a corpse, looming like decaying wood. Yet, as soon as he speaks, everyone in the hall trembles involuntarily. They look at each other, until finally a red-robed elder speaks:
"Lin Tongfeng, the master of Earth Kill Hall, fell at the hands of Ye Qingchen at Celestial Secret Mountain. Lin Tonghai took others to avenge him..."
And then.
He goes on to explain, in detail, everything that has happened during this ti.
"Hmph!"
After he finishes speaking, the black-robed elder gives a cold snort, his expression exceedingly icy, "A re Celestial Venerable youth managed to annihilate Earth Kill Hall? Moreover, the high-ranking mbers of Celestial Kill Hall led their forces to avenge! This utterly disgraces our Ten Thousand Gods Sect!"
No one dares to speak.
Initially, when they received the news of Lin Tongfeng’s death at Celestial Secret Mountain, they couldn’t believe it. But with so many disciples from Earth Kill Hall witnessing it first-hand, how could it be false?
"Sect Leader, Lin Tonghai is Lin Tongfeng’s brother. With his own brother having been tragically killed by Ye Qingchen, it’s natural he wouldn’t let it rest!" The red-robed elder paused before continuing: "However, for Lin Tonghai to bring along the high-ranking mbers of Celestial Kill Hall for revenge does have so justification!"
The black-robed elder sits there, silent but extrely displeased in his heart.
Mind you.
Lin Tonghai, the Hall Master of Celestial Kill Hall, is a Human Immortal.
Apart from him, the three Vice Hall Masters and six Elders are all Half-Step Human Immortals.
With such a lineup, they could easily annihilate three Human Immortals. But now, to join forces to hunt down a youth whose cultivation is only at the Celestial Venerable level? If word gets out, wouldn’t it make the Ten Thousand Gods Sect a laughingstock?
"Sect Leader, Hall Master Lin’s purpose for going this ti was twofold: revenge, and to assert the prestige of our Ten Thousand Gods Sect." The red-robed elder continued, biting the bullet: "Let the world know that anyone who humiliates the Ten Thousand Gods Sect, no matter who it is, even if high as Jade Fall and low as Yellow Springs, they shall surely die!"
Upon hearing this, the black-robed elder’s dissatisfaction dwindled sowhat.
He said calmly:
"In that case, let it be!"
"When Lin Tonghai returns, have him face the wall for three days for reflection!"
Hearing the Sect Leader’s decision, everyone couldn’t help but breathe a sigh of relief, and the tense atmosphere in the hall eased considerably.
"However, speaking of which, Lin Tonghai was indeed a bit reckless this ti. A Celestial Venerable youth, casually sending a few disciples would have sufficed to capture him!"
"Indeed, having a dignified Human Immortal go against a Celestial Venerable is really overkill."
"What a pity, one wonders what fate awaits that young lad in Lin Tonghai’s hands!"
So mock, others disdain, and so show pity.
However.
Just then, a steward hurried into the hall and whispered a few words to the red-robed elder.
The red-robed elder’s face changed drastically upon hearing, filled with disbelief as he finished listening.
"What happened?"
Soone inquired.
Even the black-robed elder looked intently over.
The red-robed elder’s face fluctuated several tis, as if digesting the information he’d just heard, ultimately heaving a long sigh and saying: "Several hours ago, the Life Tokens of Lin Tonghai, Zhu Wu, Chang Yuchun... shattered!"
"Life Tokens shattered?" soone exclaid: "Does that an they were all killed?"
"Who killed them?"
"Could it be that the high-level mbers of Taotian Palace made a move?"
The crowd exclaid in surprise, faces filled with suspicion.
Then, everyone looked collectively towards the red-robed elder. He heaved a long sigh, as if mustering great strength, and finally said: "Soone saw a young man in azure clothes, in front of Earth Spirit Mountain, strike Lin Tonghai down with a single sword!"
"That young man in azure clothes is Ye Qingchen!"
As soon as these words fell.
The hall descended into dead silence, leaving only the sound of heavy breathing.
