The Sword God of the Universe

Chapter 1428: Chapter 1428: Sky Pavilion

Sensing the terrifying aura of death descending, the Black-clothed God Lord panicked.

At this moment, he realized that this seemingly young fellow’s strength far exceeded his own.

Instinctively, he deployed all his defensive tactics at the first instance. In his perspective, as long as he could withstand the opponent’s first attack, his life could be preserved.

This is Star Tower Square in Star Tower City, with Wanbao Divine Hall’s powerhouse present. As long as he could fend off the opponent’s first attack, the experts from Wanbao Divine Hall were bound to arrive promptly. By then, trying to kill him would naturally be impossible.

Various energy halos continuously erupted from the Black-clothed God Lord’s body, with waves of Power tirelessly attempting to block the palm seal from above.

But the disparity in strength was too vast.

Jing Yan, an outstanding presence even among Emperor God Masters, aimed to slay an ordinary God Lord. How could the opponent withstand it? Even if the Black-clothed God Lord deployed all his defenses, that palm seal still plowed through like a sweeping force.

”Ah!”

The Black-clothed God Lord could only utter a scream before his entire body turned to dust, his Divine Soul annihilated.

Gou Zhun and Ning Luo, witnessing Jing Yan slaying the Black-clothed God Lord of Wanbao Divine Hall, opened their mouths wide, their eyes filled with shock.

From their previous conversation about Jing Yan, they definitely had no fondness for Wanbao Divine Hall. The death of a Wanbao Divine Hall member was something they were pleased to see.

The problem is, this is Star Tower City, controlled by Wanbao Divine Hall.

Here, what would be the consequences of killing a God Lord Level member of Wanbao Divine Hall?

Their minds dared not ponder further. They knew that not only Jing Yan’s situation would become extremely precarious, but even they might become implicated.

Of course, they were equally astonished by the strength Jing Yan displayed. Gou Zhun indeed had earlier judged Jing Yan to be a God Lord Level expert, but he hadn’t thought Jing Yan’s power would be this formidable.

In front of Jing Yan, the ordinary God Lord of Wanbao Divine Hall couldn’t even withstand a single move before being utterly exterminated. What terrifying Cultivation was needed to achieve this?

The two of them, having casually met someone in a tavern, turned out to be such a powerful individual?

Over in the distance at the Quenching God Star Tower, the many spectators, one by one, were dumbstruck. They’d never imagined that someone would dare to kill a member of Wanbao Divine Hall at Star Tower Square.

They shut their mouths tight, unable to speak a word, only looking at Jing Yan and others with unbelieving gazes.

Just then, from the building around Star Tower Square, a powerful aura swept out.

Soon after, a martial artist in a yellow robe burst out from the building quickly.

This person was an Emperor Level God Lord, also a core member of Wanbao Divine Hall. When the Black-clothed God Lord roared loudly earlier, he had already heard it and was preparing to come out to see what was going on, but then he heard the Black-clothed God Lord’s scream and realized something had happened, so he swiftly rushed out.

Unfortunately, he was still a step too late. When his gaze swept over to that side, the Black-clothed God Lord of Wanbao Divine Hall had already been slain and turned to dust.

”What great audacity!” Emperor God Master in Yellow Robes shouted sharply.

Jing Yan’s eyes also locked on to the Emperor in Yellow Robes who just appeared, his eyes slightly squinting as Divine Power subtly flowed within his Divine Sea.

An Emperor God Master, Jing Yan didn’t pay much mind. But Jing Yan sensed that in this Star Tower Square, there wasn’t just one Emperor Level God Lord expert. Facing multiple Emperor God Masters in an encirclement would place Jing Yan under considerable pressure.

Since coming to All Paths World, Jing Yan already faced two Emperor Level God Lords. The first being Viper Emperor, the second Emperor Huang Zhi. Particularly Emperor Huang Zhi, even among the Emperor God Masters, he was formidable, but ultimately he was defeated by Jing Yan.

Facing one Emperor, Jing Yan wouldn’t have much pressure. What he feared was being encircled, thus Jing Yan was extremely cautious. Divine Thought spread out, keeping close tabs on the surroundings.

”It’s Shadow Emperor!” Gou Zhun, upon seeing the Emperor in Yellow Robes, instinctively said under his breath.

He recognized this Wanbao Divine Hall Emperor God Master donned in yellow robes.

”Fellow Daoist Jing Yan, quickly flee. That person is a core member of Wanbao Divine Hall’s Sky Pavilion, an Emperor Level God Lord expert.” Gou Zhun hastily advised Jing Yan.

Wanbao Divine Hall has four pavilions: Heaven, Earth, Black, and Yellow. The Pavilion Masters of these four pavilions are all Divine Sovereign Level God Lords.

Shadow Emperor is a core member of the Sky Pavilion, holding a high status within the pavilion. In the entire Sky Pavilion, few have a status surpassing Shadow Emperor.

And this Quenching God Star Tower is under Shadow Emperor’s supervision.

”Fellow Daoists Gou Zhun and Ning Luo, if a real battle breaks out later, I will first transfer you to my Personal Space. Rest assured, I will protect your safety with all my might and lead you out of Star Tower City.” Jing Yan transmitted to the two.

Gou Zhun and Ning Luo both glanced with surprise at Jing Yan. But, they didn’t say anything further. Though puzzled, now was clearly not the time to inquire.

When Shadow Emperor appeared, Jing Yan also briefed Gao Feng and Jing Dongxue.

If a fight really ensued later, Jing Yan would transfer them all into Qiankun Small World, then carve a path out to leave Star Tower City. As for entering Quenching God Star Tower, that opportunity might not be feasible at the moment.

”Your audacity knows no bounds! In Star Tower City, you actually dare to kill my Wanbao Divine Hall’s God Lord!” Shadow took a stride forward, glaring murderously at Jing Yan.

Jing Yan also stared at Shadow Emperor.

Jing Yan sneered and said, ”I wish to enter Quenching God Star Tower. As far as I know, the entrance fee is twenty thousand ninth-level Divine Crystals. But earlier, that person demanded I pay two hundred thousand ninth-level Divine Crystals. Furthermore, he disrespected my Daoist couple and daughter. Do you think I shouldn’t kill him?”

”Hahaha...”

”You’re quite naive, I must see what skills you wield to cause havoc at Star Tower Square!” Shadow Emperor’s tone turned fierce, his Divine Power surged forth like tumultuous waves.

The terrifying Power fluctuations rapidly pressed towards Jing Yan in the space.

”Boom!” Jing Yan raised his hand and unleashed a palm strike.

”Clatter!”

Shadow Emperor’s body staggered uncontrollably two steps back. Jing Yan, however, stood unmoved.

This round of clash between the two Emperor Level God Lords clearly left Shadow Emperor at a disadvantage.

Shadow’s eyes narrowed slightly, his gaze fixed on Jing Yan.

”This... this... Fellow Daoist Jing Yan, is he an Emperor Level God Lord?” Gou Zhun was extremely agitated.
