Cultivation: I Signed in with the Talent of an Immortal at the Start

Chapter 156: Han Xuanji strikes breaking all laws with one sword

“Not good!”

God-Imprisoning Saint Supreme, the Vice Sect Master of the Devouring Heaven Demonic Sect, had a drastic change in his expression, and the composure with which he controlled everything completely vanished.

He also realized that the owner of this Sword Qi was definitely an extremely terrifying powerhouse, so he quickly formed a seal with his hands, his ten fingers flying.

Behind him, the phantom resembling a demon god became incredibly gigantic, a full thousand zhang tall.

“Myriad Soul Demonic Prison, open!”

The churning Devilish Qi, like a volcano suppressed for ten thousand years, erupted with a roar, instantly transforming into a terrifying Demonic Prison to protect the fortress.

This Demonic Prison emitted a nauseating, foul aura, as if connected to the deepest part of the Nine Hells, carrying a terrifying power that could erode everything.

“What audacity, to dare to provoke us proactively?”

Heavenly Mandate Holy Venerable’s reaction was equally swift.

“Heaven’s Mandate Divine Seal.”

However, there was no trace of contempt in his eyes; he roared, and the phantom of the demon god wielding Heaven’s Mandate behind him instantly solidified, as if stepping out from ancient times.

The demon god held its hands towards the sky, and a dazzling profound light erupted from its palms, condensing a rune inscribed with complex Dao patterns of destiny, then an extremely profound “Heaven’s Mandate Divine Seal” suddenly took shape, its light illuminating the Nine Heavens, as if the will of a god enveloped everything.

This Divine Seal was profound and unfathomable; it could amplify oneself and weaken the enemy.

It could even distort reality, forcibly deflecting the enemy’s attacks.

For beings whose Realm was lower than his, once this Seal appeared, it was almost unsolvable.

“Suppress them for me!”

Heavenly Mandate Holy Venerable pushed his hands forward, exerting all his strength, thrusting the Heaven’s Mandate Divine Seal fiercely towards the Sword Qi long river.

However.

When the Divine Seal, containing supreme power, collided with the surging Sword Qi long river.

The deflection and suppression he had anticipated did not occur.

Boom!

The Heaven’s Mandate Divine Seal, which had always been invincible, instantly shattered like an egg striking a stone upon touching the Sword Qi long river; the Dao patterns of destiny on the enormous Magic Treasure disintegrated inch by inch, and its profound light rapidly dimmed.

After only a momentary stalemate, the entire Divine Seal shattered like glazed glass struck by a giant hammer, exploding with a roar.

The Divine Seal turned into countless specks of light, dissipating into the air.

“This… how is this possible?”

Heavenly Mandate Holy Venerable’s pupils suddenly constricted, his face filled with shock and anger, and his voice distorted from sheer terror.

The Heaven’s Mandate Divine Seal, which had dominated the Lin Yuan Continent for thousands of years, was actually… so vulnerable before this Sword Qi?

“Impossible…”

Countless conjectures arose in Heavenly Mandate Holy Venerable’s mind.

But clearly, he was not given any time to think.

The surging Sword Qi long river, after crushing the Heaven’s Mandate Divine Seal, continued its momentum like a broken bamboo, unhindered, crashing into God-Imprisoning Saint Supreme’s Myriad Soul Demonic Prison!

Roar!

Billions of resentful Souls let out ear-splitting shrieks.

The Demonic Prison barrier, capable of imprisoning Ascension Realm powerhouses, emitted a terrifying “sizzling” sound of dissolution under the onslaught of the Sword Qi long river.

Countless resentful Souls instantly turned into green smoke before they even had time to struggle.

The entire Demonic Prison trembled violently, cracks spread everywhere, and it instantly collapsed.

Immediately after, the Sword Qi long river, with its momentum undiminished and a sharp Sword Intent that could annihilate all things, ruthlessly slammed into the incomparably massive floating fortress.

Rumble!!!

An earth-shattering roar, like billions of thunderbolts exploding simultaneously, shook the entire East Sea.

Time and space seemed to freeze for an instant.

After a long while.

When the world-destroying sound gradually subsided, and the dazzling Sword Light slowly faded.

The many Cultivators finally awoke.

Just witnessing this one sword strike had already robbed them of all their senses.

Countless Cultivators only now recovered from the state where their Souls were frozen; some gasped for breath, still shaken.

The might of an Immortal is something Mortals cannot directly behold!

“It’s Demon-Slaying Sword Immortal!”

“It’s Sword Immortal Han Xuanji who has made his move!”

The Cultivators of Dong Cang Province cheered excitedly; many of them had felt the aura of that supreme Sword Intent before.

These people were followers of Han Xuanji, and they had risked such great danger to come here just to witness Han Xuanji make a move again.

Seeing him now, they trembled with excitement.

“Fellow Daoist Han Xuanji… is truly astonishing.”

Purple Sun Old Ancestor and Arhat Wuzhu exchanged glances, their eyes filled with an indescribable excitement.

They knew the terror of the Devouring Heaven Demonic Sect, and the power of Han Xuanji’s single sword strike was even more beyond their expectations.

Others simply couldn’t realize how powerful Han Xuanji’s sword strike was!

Without reaching the Ascension Realm, one couldn’t even grasp what this powerful force truly meant.

“It’s quite sturdy, though.”

Han Xuanji’s figure had appeared by the seashore at some unknown point; he mumbled softly.

The Profound Heaven Sword in his hand pointed diagonally at the sea, its blade shimmering with a cool, cold light.

His gaze penetrated the pervasive smoke and Devilish Qi, locking onto the already dilapidated floating fortress.

At this moment, the fortress was a scene of devastation.

Tens of thousands of Demonic Cultivators had been reduced to ashes under the onslaught of the Sword Qi long river; only a few highly cultivated individuals, relying on protective Magic Treasures or secret techniques, barely survived, but all were wounded and their Qi was weak.

However, the Devouring Heaven Demonic Sect’s performance was not what he had imagined.

He had originally thought that the Disciples of such a Demonic Sect would have no loyalty or discipline to speak of.

But in reality, the surviving Demonic Cultivators did not panic; instead, under the sharp shouts of God-Imprisoning Saint Supreme and Heavenly Mandate Holy Venerable, they quickly formed an incredibly profound Demonic Formation radiating an ominous bloody light.

“Swallowing Heaven Grand Formation, rise!”

God-Imprisoning Saint Supreme and Heavenly Mandate Holy Venerable stood at the core of the Formation’s eye.

And the many surviving Demonic Cultivators, including some Ascension Realm powerhouses, were like kindling ignited; their vitality and spiritual Qi were forcibly extracted by the Formation, surging madly into the Formation’s eye along invisible torrents.

These people showed pain on their faces, their life force gradually dissipating, but no one dared to resist, allowing themselves to be drained.

Only when they were on the verge of death did the extraction cease.

“Your Excellency’s strength is astonishing, why bother protecting these ants… Is it truly necessary to oppose us for the sake of these ants?”

Heavenly Mandate Holy Venerable’s voice rang out; this time, his tone had regained its confidence.

However, he still harbored a few more reservations about Han Xuanji.

“Join the Swallowing Heaven Saint Sect, and you can become a being second only to me, above billions of others; countless Cultivators will be resources for your cultivation path.”

Heavenly Mandate Holy Venerable continued to entice him.

“If Your Excellency cultivates my Swallowing Heaven Saint Art, Immortal Ascension will be effortless.”

It seemed he sincerely wanted to recruit Han Xuanji.

Han Xuanji scoffed.

[Heavenly Mandate Holy Venerable: Ascension Realm Seventh Layer, the First Sacred Paragon of the Devouring Heaven Demonic Sect, his true identity is one of the Clones of the Devouring Heaven Old Ancestor, he has mastered the highest secret technique of the Devouring Heaven Demon Art, capable of controlling others who have cultivated the Devouring Heaven Demon Art, he came here to conquer the Nine Provinces Continent and turn more powerhouses into nourishment.]

[God-Imprisoning Saint Supreme: Ascension Realm Seventh Layer, Vice Sect Master of the Devouring Heaven Demonic Sect, his true identity is one of the Clones of the Devouring Heaven Old Ancestor, he has mastered the highest secret technique of the Devouring Heaven Demon Art, capable of controlling others who have cultivated the Devouring Heaven Demon Art, he came here to conquer the Nine Provinces Continent and turn more powerhouses into nourishment.]

In reality, these two Sacred Paragons, who held high positions in the Devouring Heaven Demonic Sect, were all Clones of the Devouring Heaven Old Ancestor.

Needless to say, the true body of this Devouring Heaven Old Ancestor should be even stronger.

However, Han Xuanji felt that this Devouring Heaven Demon Art could not be without hidden dangers; otherwise, this Devouring Heaven Old Ancestor should have been invincible long ago, and there would have been no need to hide his true body and let his Clones do the work.
