Invincibility Begins with a Super Fairy Manny

Chapter 1322: Chapter 1319: Sky-Annihilating Lock (Second Update)

No sooner had the voice faded than a very faint vibration followed.

Tian Yuanqing’s face couldn’t help but change drastically.

At the same time, with a flash of his sword-bearing figure, he vanished from the table, leaving only a voice echoing from afar.

”Yuanqing, notify all Sword Cultivator disciples to ready their swords immediately!”

”Yes!”

As the voice fell, the sword-bearing figure had already crossed multiple barriers, flying to the top floor of Mingxin Palace.

Simultaneously, several sword lights swiftly followed, and once they stood firm, they turned out to be Ting Jian, Mo Jian, Shi Jian, and Jian Si - the four Elders.

All five Great Elders of Mingxin Palace gathered, their expressions solemn as they looked into the distance.

Only to see a thread of darkness slowly appearing on the horizon, then it surged like boiling tides, casting darkness over the sun and the moon wherever it passed.

”Indeed, the Demon Ghosts have re-emerged among men!” Holding his sword, he exhaled lightly and said in a moderated voice.

Amongst the five Great Elders, the youngest but most hot-tempered and possessing the most potent killing intent, Shi Jian, chuckled coldly upon hearing this, ”How can the Demon Ghosts possibly matter? They dare to run wild in front of Mingxin Palace? It seems our swords have been silent for too long, so long that these fiends have forgotten to fear!”

Without greeting anyone, he leaped forth, transformed into a streak of light, and in the blink of an eye, he flew forward, facing the terrifying and formidable wave of darkness with a derisive smile.

With a lift of his hand, a beam of sword light took shape instantly, then with a raise of his eyebrows, he shouted coldly, ”Fiends! Scram!”

Having said that, the sword light flashed and vanished, reappearing in front of the dark tide, its radiance now unbelievably brilliant.

Boom!

After a loud noise, the once mighty dark tide was cleaved through by this sword strike.

The exploding fireworks were like a succession of dazzling fireworks, blinding to the onlookers.

This scene was observed by many of the cultivators in Jianzhou.

Immediately, cheers arose from all around.

”Brilliant sword!”

”By the Sword Intent, it must be Elder Shi Jian of Mingxin Immortal Palace!”

”Elder Shi Jian indeed has swift movements. I had only just noticed this Demon Ghost Qi and was about to take to the skies to strike down the demon, but I hadn’t expected him to have already dealt with it single-handedly!” complained a Sword Cultivator with a touch of regret.

The four Elders of Mingxin Palace witnessed this scene with a slight wry smile.

Especially Jian Si, who said somewhat helplessly, ”Old Five is of such an age and yet he’s still as hot-tempered as ever? He strikes without even a word of warning?”

Ting Jian, the most gentle-natured amongst them, smiled at the words, ”Our fifth brother has always been like this. Otherwise, he wouldn’t have been able to master his lethal sword technique!”

Mo Jian, usually reserved and reticent, couldn’t help but add, ”Fifth brother’s action was good. In the end, all those Demon Ghosts must be exterminated!”

”Indeed! But the question now is, how could these Demon Ghosts, not seen in the world for so long, suddenly appear and dare to challenge Mingxin Palace?” pondered Elder Jian Si, dressed in white and, despite his age, still dashing and handsome, with a frown on his face.

At this moment, Shi Jian, quite pleased with his own sword strike, couldn’t help but laugh heartily.

”Dare to cause trouble in front of Mingxin Palace with this little strength? What a joke!”

But no sooner had the words left his lips than the whole of Jianzhou suddenly began to shake violently, and then a horrifying scene unfolded before everyone’s eyes.

Along the edges of Jianzhou, columns of black Qi rose to the sky, turning into towering pillars that seemed to support the heavens.

Soon after, these towering pillars extended into branches of black Qi that connected with one another.

The moment they took form, the entire Jianzhou trembled mightily; even the Spiritual Power in the air fluctuated erratically.

Then looking again, one could see that the dense black Qi had firmly enveloped the entire Jianzhou.

It looked just like a cage.

Everyone involuntarily gasped in shock.

Because everything changed so swiftly that before people could even react, it had already taken shape.

But at that moment, Shi Jian snorted in anger, ”Evil heretics, you dare to trap my sect?”

As he spoke, several beams of sword light suddenly appeared before Shi Jian, then he slashed out with them.

Boom boom boom!

After several successive explosions, the sword light that was always invincible proved ineffective this time.

That’s because as soon as the sword light touched the black cage, the Sword Intent and power within it were instantly dispersed.

So even though the cage trembled, it could not be affected in the slightest!

Shi Jian was enraged and was about to continue his attack when suddenly, numerous black beams appeared before him and directly knocked him flying.

”Fifth Brother!”

The sword-wielding individuals shouted in alarm, immediately rushing to his side.

Shi Jian stabilized his form. Though somewhat in disarray, he was not seriously harmed, but the humiliation made him feel as if he couldn’t save face, and so he shouted angrily.

”Dear brothers, please step aside, today I must destroy this wicked magic!”

However, sword-wielding Jian Si stopped him, ”Don’t be impulsive!”

”Senior Brother, these Demon Ghosts have already bullied their way to our doorstep, how can I not be impulsive?” Shi Jian said, clearly annoyed.

Jian Si smiled bitterly, ”The key point is that your impulsiveness won’t solve any problem!”

As he spoke, Jian Si raised his head to size up the black cage that seemed alive and was slowly flickering, his eyes revealing an extremely grave expression.

”If I’m not mistaken, this must be the handiwork of the Ghost Cult, and the cage is the Annihilation Lock!”

Ghost Cult!

This designation caused several Great Elders, as well as the leading Disciples who arrived later like Tian Yuanqing, to be terrified.

”How is this possible? Wasn’t the Ghost Cult thoroughly eradicated by our Master back in the day?” Sword Control shuddered and said in astonishment.

Jian Si revealed a bitter smile, ”Fourth Brother, you’re right, our Master indeed eradicated the once arrogant Ghost Cult completely from this world, but don’t forget, which place is our realm closest to?”

Hearing Jian Si’s words, everyone’s expression became exceptionally grave.

Because if the speculation was true, the consequences would be unimaginable!

Just then, a branch suddenly grew atop the black cage, and afterwards leaves blossomed abundantly on the branch, instantly transforming into a bud, which slowly unfurled.

In a moment, within the flower, a Double-Faced Demon Ghost with two faces appeared.

Although both faces were stunning and captivating, they gave people the chills just by looking.

This was because the two faces were connected in a very eerie manner.

Afterward, the Double-Faced Demon Ghost began to giggle coyly, ”Truly worthy of being this realm’s current guardian Immortal Sect, you’ve guessed our origin so quickly! Yes, we are indeed from the Ghost Cult!”

Jian Si’s expression darkened, and he demanded coldly, ”What exactly do you want to do?”

”What do we want to do? After going to such lengths, of course, it’s to welcome the arrival of the Empress!” The Double-Faced Demon Ghost laughed arrogantly.

The term Empress also caused Jian Si and others’ expressions to change dramatically.
