Throughout half his life, Shen Jue had never endured such humiliation.
His hands had always wielded the Killing Sword, stained with his enemies' blood and the lives of those who defied him. He had never imagined that one day he'd be holding a hoe, doing the farm work of ordinary people who couldn't cultivate.
He rembered his sword, a deadly weapon that had slain at least tens of thousands. Years of bloodshed had filled the grooves of the sword with blood crust, which he never cleaned because it was a testant to his conquest of the Heaven-Gazing Gorge. He even thought one day the sword would turn crimson from the silver-gray it initially was, instilling fear in countless people.
Now the sword was no longer in his hand.
In his hand was only a hoe!
And dirt was lodged beneath his fingernails!
He even sat on the yellow earth with just a few green onions, not caring about dirtying his clothes, like a farr exhausted by work and heedless of anything else.
"No way!"
Shen Jue suddenly sprang up.
He couldn't continue like this!
He had stepped into the realm of Earth Unrestricted.
An existence above all beings!
Though countless humans and demons live in this world, how many can enter the Earth Unrestricted realm?
Clang!
Upon rising, Shen Jue kicked the hoe aside, catching a glimpse of the Jade Bottle placed nearby. The bottle itself was beautiful, with srizing patterns, yet he had no appreciation for it at that mont. It felt like a foot stepping on his dignity as an Earth Unrestricted Expert, trampling it relentlessly, making him feel disgusted by the bottle's appearance instead.
Once per hour?
Drip, my ass!
Shen Jue vowed to fight his way out today!
He imdiately grabbed the Jade Bottle and forcefully slamd it to the ground, only to hear a thud as it bounced like a ball.
The material's pretty tough!
Shen Jue picked it up again, squeezing the Jade Bottle with his right hand.
He exerted force, but it didn't break.
He tried again, with no reaction.
Using his Spiritual Power, his hand turned slightly pale.
Shen Jue tossed the Jade Bottle away, not caring where it landed, then furiously declared, "I'm breaking out today!"
Those cowards who fear death do the dirty slave work, but Shen Jue refuses!
However, simply charging out wouldn't work; he needed to take a hostage.
The Elders of the Immortal Sect have so who aren't powerful. If he captures one to threaten the Immortal Sect, they would surely let him leave. If he were the Sect Leader, he would never want to bear such a disgraceful reputation.
If the Elder isn't saved today, who will entrust their lives to him in the future?
Act now!
Shen Jue threw himself into the forest, heading toward Yunlan Mountain, observing through the leaves the situation at Yunlan Mountain. There, he saw 16 fellow Earth Unrestricted individuals watering and digging.
"Pathetic bunch!"
Shen Jue withdrew his disdainful gaze, continuing to move forward stealthily.
Just as he was about to leave, he heard a familiar voice.
It was the voice of Elder Qin Shan!
"Not bad, you've beco much more skilled." Qin Shan looked towards Ling Yun nearby, "If soone slacks off, don't show rcy."
Ling Yun nodded.
"Elder Qin, when will Red-eyed Giant Ape and Hei Ze return?"
Ling Yun, part of the initial tree-planting trio, suddenly felt a bit nostalgic for the Giant Ape and Hei Ze.
Qin Shan said, "The Giant Ape and Hei Ze are currently assisting the Sect Leader at Demon Emperor Lake with other tasks, but they'll return soon. The Sect Leader seems to care about tree planting in the Immortal Sect far more than the White Crystal Ore at Demon Emperor Lake."
In the forest, Shen Jue watched Qin Shan, who appeared lofty, and a tsunami of anger welled up in his heart. Did this guy really think of himself as a bigshot? Following this, Shen Jue transford into a startling blur, shooting out from the forest, with his right hand gripping the sword, heading directly for Qin Shan.
Shen Jue's move shocked all 16 individuals planting trees.
And it shocked those heroes from Red Leaf Sect.
Bam!
Bam!
Bam!
Bam!
Four ridian Gates opened in succession, and Shen Jue reached Qin Shan in an instant.
The shining sword's tip pointed directly at Qin Shan's forehead, giving him no ti to react.
Qin Shan was startled by Shen Jue's sudden arrival but surprisingly wasn't flustered and instead laughed.
Shen Jue roared, "Shut up, lead the way, leave the Immortal Sect!"
With that, Shen Jue's sword rested on Qin Shan's shoulder, not believing Qin Shan's speed or the Sword Demon's speed could outpace his sword to the neck.
At that mont, those 16 people shuddered.
They wanted to resist too but didn't dare.
Because they cherished their lives.
And they were unwilling to see their faction wiped out.
Thinking that enduring would make it pass.
Now, seeing Shen Jue standing up and resisting, their hearts were more excited than anyone else's.
Including those heroes from Red Leaf Sect, who were also excited, each wanting to shout for the senior to take them away.
Yet, Qin Shan didn't budge.
"Have you ever seen a demon?" Qin Shan casually remarked.
Shen Jue shouted angrily, "Do you fear death?"
Demon?
What nonsense is that?
"Hurry up!"
Shen Jue shoved Qin Shan, heading back the way he ca, causing the disciples of the Immortal Sect to pause upon witnessing this scene.
Even the Elders of the Immortal Sect were drawn in.
Shen Jue grinned because this was precisely the outco he desired; the more people from the Immortal Sect witnessed, the better his chances of escaping. If no one saw him holding Qin Shan hostage, the Sword Demon was likely to act without caring about Qin Shan's life.
