Firmament Sword

Fearless!

Undaunted!

Invincible!

Even facing life and death, the powerful Heavenly Brilliance Disciples remained unfazed!

Even the youngest among them, Shao Zheng, a youth not yet eighteen, showed only resolve on his small, round face!

The shady old man who had been observing from the shadows couldn’t help but be moved. He sighed and muttered, “It seems… Master Gui can’t stay out of this after all. Otherwise, I’ll never hear the end of it when I see that kid.”

Just then, a sharp cry echoed from high above. A streak of light shot down, slashing directly toward the group of young experts from the Blazing Flame Province.

SWISH! SWISH! SWISH! SWISH!

In an instant, seven or eight heads were lopped off!

Blood sprayed into the air, falling like rain in a beautiful yet ghastly shower!

“Gao Ping is here! Who dares run wild?” With a sharp shout, a figure descended from the sky and plunged straight into the fray.

One man, one sword, single-handedly threw the combined attack formation of the Jin Family and the Blazing Flame Province experts into chaos.

The pressure on Tang Xiao and the others, who had been on the verge of collapse, suddenly eased, but their hearts were filled with intense confusion.

‘Who is Gao Ping?’ they all wondered.

But this was clearly not the time for questions. The experts from the Jin Family and the Blazing Flame Province had gone berserk.

At this point, they would mow down even a Sect Leader of a Supreme Great Sect if one stood in their way!

It was kill or be killed!

Gao Ping? Being tall wouldn’t help him either!

“Kill!” The eyes of the Blazing Flame Province experts were bloodshot as they roared madly.

“Kill!” Jin Ming swallowed a handful of Spirit Medicine. Drenched in blood like a madman, he charged back into the fight.

RUMBLE!

KABOOM! KABOOM! KABOOM! KABOOM! KABOOM!

A series of explosions suddenly ripped through the sky, like a chain of thunderclaps.

Sizable groups of experts from the Blazing Flame Province and the Jin Family were blasted into smithereens.

An utterly frigid voice rang out, “Luo Tian is here! Anyone who dares harm my brothers and sisters… dies!”

BOOM! BOOM! BOOM!

Another massive screen of light, radiating a dazzling brilliance, crashed down on the Jin Family and Blazing Flame Province’s formation.

Shaking Light Burst!

This wasn’t a single Shaking Light Burst, but a whole barrage of them!

Witnessing his junior brothers and sisters gravely injured and on the brink of being slain, Xu Luo went nearly berserk, unleashing his full power without any regard for the cost.

His Beidou Sword streaked across the sky, unleashing a world-shocking Sword Qi that decapitated dozens of enemies in a single sweep!

Gao Ping, who had just charged in, felt his lips twitch violently. He couldn’t help but mutter, “What a monster!”

Du Qingteng and Master Mao, who arrived right behind him, were also stunned by Xu Luo’s frenzy, but they quickly charged into the crowd and joined the slaughter.

With the complete Soul Scripture Stele hovering above his head to protect himself, Xu Luo wielded the Beidou Sword and charged into the formation of the Blazing Flame Province and Jin Family like a ferocious tiger.

There were no superfluous words, no threats or curses—only slaughter!

Tang Xiao and the others could no longer hold on and collapsed to the ground, but they couldn’t stop themselves from laughing wildly.

Even Ming Youyue, a girl usually as elegant as a Princess, sat on the ground with a dirt-streaked face, laughing with abandon.

They laughed until tears streamed down their faces.

“We’re saved!”

“We’re finally saved!”

“I knew it… The Boss is the strongest!”

“The Boss is the most reliable!”

“Now that the Boss is here, who can possibly contend with him?”

With his formidable combat strength and an arsenal of ultimate treasures, Xu Luo had become a veritable God of Slaughter. In a mere moment, he struck terror into the hearts of everyone from the Blazing Flame Province and the Jin Family!

“Luo Tian… He’s the Luo Tian with a bounty on the Bounty Guild’s list!”

“We request the Ancestor’s intervention!”

“He’s the one who killed the Ancestor’s spiritual body! We beg the Ancestor to kill him!”

A group from the Blazing Flame Province roared frantically.

The two old men who had yet to make a move suddenly shot beams of divine light from their eyes, locking their gazes on Xu Luo. Then, cold smiles spread across their faces.

“So he’s Luo Tian? Excellent!”

“We’ve finally been waiting for him. Kill!”

The two Ancestors from the Blazing Flame Province rose into the air and lunged directly at Xu Luo.

‘Ancestral spiritual bodies!’ Xu Luo immediately recognized the same aura from the Blazing Flame Province Ancestor’s spiritual body he had previously slain. He was momentarily startled.

But he was completely fearless, and he sneered, “If I can kill one… I can kill two more!”

HUM!

The two spiritual bodies of the Blazing Flame Province Ancestors wasted no words and directly unleashed a terrifying pressure!

This pressure far surpassed the Initial Tier Ultimate Venerable and the High Tier Ultimate Venerable… It had reached the Celestial Venerable Realm!

‘A Heaven-Deceiving Talisman…’ Xu Luo’s eyes were like ice.

He hadn’t expected these two Ancestors to possess such a treasure.

But Xu Luo was unmoved. He continued to sweep through the crowd from the Blazing Flame Province and the Jin Family while sending a telepathic message to Du Qingteng and Master Mao: “Protect my junior brothers and sisters!”

Du Qingteng and Master Mao immediately moved to Tang Xiao’s group, calling over Gao Ping to help protect them.

Xu Luo withstood the pressure of a Celestial Venerable, his gaze icy and his heart as hard as iron, and commenced a blood-soaked slaughter!

None who stood before him could last even a single exchange!

Xu Luo’s battle cries contained the Jade Balance Demon Sound. He simultaneously activated the Time Reversal Skill, making his opponents’ attacks appear like slow motion in his eyes.

The cold light of the Beidou Sword flashed, continuously reaping the lives of his enemies.

Watching the two Celestial Venerable Ancestors charge toward him, Xu Luo sneered and threw out an ancient seal.

The two old men froze, recognizing it as a treasure belonging to another Blazing Flame Province Ancestor.

If they attacked, they risked destroying the treasure. But if they didn’t… the ancient seal was already bearing down on them!

In that brief moment of hesitation, the ancient seal suddenly detonated!

Silently!

The greatest sounds are silent!

Under the shockwave of this terrifying energy fluctuation, this patch of heaven and earth directly collapsed!

The two Celestial Venerable-level Ancestors were sent flying back in a wretched state!

At the same time, their eyes filled with furious rage.

“You little bastard… How dare you destroy my senior brother’s ultimate treasure!”

“You little brat, you’re dead today for sure!”

WHOOSH!

What greeted the two Celestial Venerables was a Magic Staff.

This Magic Staff… they also recognized it. It was another of their senior brother’s ultimate treasures!

“Old dogs, here’s another treasure for you!” Xu Luo sneered.

“You’re courting death!” the two Celestial Venerable Ancestors roared, their anger uncontrollable.

But their bodies retreated rapidly at the same time. Not even Celestial Venerable Ancestors dared to face the power produced by the explosion of such an ultimate treasure head-on!

Unexpectedly, the Magic Staff flew back into Xu Luo’s hand. With his other hand, he wielded the Beidou Sword and stabbed a young expert from the Blazing Flame Province to death.

Xu Luo jeered, “A couple of cowards!”

“You…” One of the Blazing Flame Province Ancestors, enraged, slammed a palm down toward Xu Luo to suppress him.

This was the simplest and most effective method.

To directly use the power of a Celestial Venerable’s realm to crush Xu Luo to death!

The surviving young experts from the Blazing Flame Province and the survivors from the Jin Family all glared at Xu Luo with venomous hatred, their eyes glinting with crazed delight.

In their eyes, with two Celestial Venerable Ancestors taking action, Luo Tian would fall even if he were a young deity!

POP!

Suddenly, a sound like a ripple in water came from the void. It wasn’t loud, but its effect was utterly horrifying!

Because one of the Celestial Venerable Realm Ancestor’s spiritual bodies… had simply vanished!

No one saw what had happened.

The other Celestial Venerable Ancestor from the Blazing Flame Province was scared out of his wits and immediately turned to flee!

Without a moment’s hesitation, he fled the instant his companion was devoured!

However…

POP!

With another soft pop, the Blazing Flame Province Ancestor’s spiritual body, which had already flown several thousand feet away in an instant, also vanished bizarrely into the void!

Everyone… was completely stunned!

“Heavens… where are the two Ancestors?”

“What happened?”

“Those were two Celestial Venerables!”

“Even if they were spiritual bodies, they were still Celestial Venerables!”

“Where did they go?”

“Where are they!”

All the experts from the Blazing Flame Province were going insane, and the people from the Jin Family were on the verge of madness as well.

They were scared witless!

A flash of insight struck Xu Luo. As if realizing something, a cold smile touched his lips, and he charged with his sword into the Blazing Flame Province’s ranks.

Ten men killed with every step!

Breaking Army Seven Kills, Beidou Sword!

Kill! Kill! Kill!

Like a lion entering a flock of sheep, he was unstoppable!

No one could stop Xu Luo’s rampage anymore!

Seven steps!

All the young experts from the Blazing Flame Province were slaughtered to the last man!

Not a single drop of blood stained Xu Luo’s body, yet a murderous aura erupted from him, soaring to the heavens!

He slowly turned to face the Jin Family.

Jin Ming stood among the Jin Family’s ranks. His hands trembled so much he could barely hold his sword. His body trembled, making it nearly impossible to stand. His very soul quaked as if it would shatter and fly from his body!

Xu Luo raised his Beidou Sword, pointed it at Jin Ming, and coldly uttered a single word: “Die!”

An incomparably powerful Jade Balance Demon Sound rushed toward Jin Ming like a torrent.

HUM!

“Die!”

A terrifying storm erupted within Jin Ming’s Sea of Spiritual Consciousness!

BANG!

Jin Ming’s head exploded!

A peerless prodigy of his generation had fallen!

“A Demon King!”

“A devil!”

“He’s a devil!”

“Mommy…”

Some of the elite experts from the Jin Family were so scared they cried out for their mothers. It was no exaggeration to say they pissed their pants in terror. In that instant, their spirits… were completely shattered!

They had never imagined that with their family background and strength, they would ever face such a miserable and wretched moment.

Now, only a single thought remained in their minds.

Escape!

“Run!”

An Ultimate Venerable Peak elder from the Jin Family, trembling and shivering, let out a frantic roar, then… turned and fled.

POP!

Another soft sound, like a small pebble dropping into a well…

The Ultimate Venerable Peak Realm elder instantly vanished.

POP! POP! POP!

The soft sounds continued, and one by one, the fleeing experts of the Jin Family vanished into the void.

In the end, the few remaining members of the Jin Family simply drew their swords across their own throats!

Because even that was a hundred times better than facing that unknown terror!

Forget the Jin Family; even Tang Xiao and the others were deeply shaken.

They all stared at the empty void, their eyes filled with fear.

They were fearless and undaunted in the face of death… but to say they weren’t the least bit terrified of this unknown would be an outright lie.

At this point, everyone at the scene from the Blazing Flame Province and the Jin Family was dead!

Xu Luo cupped his fist toward the empty void. “Thank you, Senior Black Tortoise, for your righteous assistance.”
