That is the Emperor’s sword!
A sword capable of severing infinitely powerful forces!
However, Yang Tian held no malice beneath its blade, and he even shattered the sword barehanded. How could this be possible?
Song Cheng had always greeted the disciples of the Shenjian Gate, even Jin Ze, making them pale with terror!
Because what was happening before us was beyond their imagination.
Yet Song Cheng, being an elite disciple of Shenjian Gate, although shocked, quickly stepped back a few paces and cald himself down.
"Don’t panic. I have a card in my hand that no one can stop!"
Song Cheng looked at the Emperor’s treasure sword; he held it in one hand. His heart bled!
But soon, he pulled out his so-called trump card. It was nothing other than the sword curse used to deter people!
As Song Cheng mouthed the incantation aloud, he directly unleashed the sword’s enchantnt.
Instantly, propelled by Song Cheng, the Sword Mansion transford into sword light, emitting an impossibly ferocious force!
This sword represented Elder Lu’s strike power. I never thought I’d use it in such a desperate situation, but now, I can’t think about that!"
Looking at Yang Tian, Song Cheng’s expression shifted. Finally, he pointed the sword towards its symbol and imdiately shouted, "Use the sword’s symbol to slay the mighty foe!"
The figure ford by Song Cheng’s sword, guided by its power, shimred even more brilliantly, and its strength multiplied severalfold!
Everyone could feel the terrifying essence of the swordsmanship. They all lowered their heads, not daring to look directly. Their hearts trembled simultaneously.
Because they had already sensed it — this was an unrelenting blow coming from a higher level, from a Half-step realm fighter!
They absolutely couldn’t withstand it. They wouldn’t even dare to glance at it!
As for the disciples of Shenjian Gate, when they saw Song Cheng deploying the sword curse, they imdiately recovered from their shock, breathing sighs of relief one after another.
They were astonished that Yang Tian was able to resist the Emperor’s treasure sword and crush it directly with bare hands. But could he also withstand the symbolic strength of Elder Lu’s Half-step attack contained within the sword’s mark?
Even Murong Yan, upon seeing the emblem of the sword, felt his heart tighten as he heaved a sigh and said, "The mark of the treasure sword has co forth... It’s over. He... he stands no chance."
Thud!
A muffled sound.
Yang Tian slowly unclenched his hand, while Song Cheng’s lifeless body slamd heavily onto the ground.
At this mont, everything around us seed eerily still.
Everyone could even feel the resonating sound of Song Cheng’s defeated body hitting the ground — as if a hamr were striking their hearts.
Dead!
How many years has Shenjian Gate ruled the Northern Region?
Though nurous arrogant individuals had slain mbers of the Divine Sword Sect, those killers had always chosen their monts most cautiously — acting in outside realms where authority was blurred. Yang Tian had seen skies vast and oceans infinite, after all.
If anyone dared provoke the Divine Sword Sect within the Northern Region, it would be akin to taking a tiger by its whisker!
But now, in a forbidden region governed by the Sword Sect, a mber of Shenjian Gate had been killed in front of the crowd!
Furthermore, this mber was no ordinary disciple but an elite of the Chenjian Sect.
This left everyone’s hearts trembling incessantly!
"Sothing monuntal has occurred, truly monuntal! He... he actually killed Song Cheng!"
Who knows how much ti had passed before soone let out a tragic cry.
Others, upon hearing it, felt heavy-hearted; even their breathing grew strained.
Song Cheng’s death wasn’t the issue, but the ramifications of his demise were colossal.
Four hundred years ago, within Shenjian Gate, never had a disciple been so brazenly destroyed. What fury would the elder Yan Yang Jian channel outside the serene palace gates?
When that mont arrives, they wouldn’t bother reasoning!
A disciple from the sect suddenly had an idea and exclaid, "Teleportation technique—aim it at the casting beacon. If we... If we report to Elder Lu first, maybe... maybe Elder Lu won’t bla us."
When those words ca out, everyone responded.
Yes!
Song Cheng is dead, and Lu Shen, consud with rage, would surely implicate them in the cri.
After all, Lu Shen was known for his fiery temper. Why would he act without reason? Perhaps he’d feel they should’ve perished, too, just to save Song Cheng’s life!
So now, the only option is to flee!
As long as they escape, they’d have the support of elders in their respective families. If they report to Lu Shen ahead of ti, Lu Shen’s attention would be diverted solely toward Yang Tian, giving them a chance to spare themselves!
Thus, many of them activated their jade talismans, infusing them with spiritual essence.
In an instant, the Jade Elephant emitted a fluctuation, enshrouding them before vanishing entirely from the heart of this forbidden land.
"Murong Xuei, let’s go too! Inform Elder Lu imdiately; there’s still ti!"
Nearby, Lin Jingyun watched Yang Tian deflect the sword’s enchantnt and kill Song Cheng. At this mont, he had no desire to fight as he hastily spoke to Murong Yan.
Upon hearing Lin Jingyun’s words, Murong Yan suddenly erged from his shock. She couldn’t help but look at Yang Tian, her eyes filled with conflicted emotion.
Still, that internal struggle didn’t last long; Murong Yan opened her mouth to reveal soft words toward Yang Tian — though no sound erged, it was clear from the shape of her lips that she ant: "Don’t go!"
Swish!
At that mont, the heart of the forbidden land grew restless. Figures from various sects disappeared one after another.
Only Yang Tian and Song Chengna remained.
This was the long-awaited climax of the Northern Region’s forbidden journey.
But Yang Tian didn’t care about any of that; his focus rested on the Soul Stabilizing Grass in his hand.
For Yang Tian, this expedition had been successful!
Most importantly, the Soul Stabilizing Grass was acquired, indirectly delaying Divine Sword Sect’s Yun Han Immortal from pursuing Chen Xue, granting Chen Xue a mont of safety!
And discovering the black obsidian amidst cosmic currents was an unexpected delight!
Even though there was only one piece of black obsidian here, crafting it into protective bracelets capable of restoring Yang Tian’s original strength in just five minutes was more than enough!
For those five minutes of restored vitality, Yang Tian had the confidence to sweep across Shenjian Gate and rescue Chen Xue.
Recalling Murong Yan’s subtle hint before departing, Yang Tian shook his head lightly, "Not leaving? How to ensure Chen Xue’s safety otherwise? Moreover, could Shenjian Gate still stave off refined karma?"
Saying this, Yang Tian collected the Soul Stabilizing Grass into his Universe Bag, then noticed the Jade Talisman Elder Liu had left him before. He directly infused it with vital energy, disappearing from the original spot.
