Chapter 367: The Blazing Sun to See You Off

The Blazing Sun rose, and the light of destruction appeared between heaven and earth.

Law-Breaking!

Law-Extinguishing!

Law-Prohibiting!

The threefold True Intent spread in all directions, altering the structure of the heavenly and earthly Qi particles at their deepest level, causing them to temporarily exhibit immense inertia.

Including the Brother Brother Xuanwu Four-Pole Boundary Array!

Thirty-six sky-piercing giant pillars suddenly dimmed significantly; under the bombardment of a million heavy cannons, they cracked with strange sounds, and large patches of spiritual light collapsed and scattered.

"This is the Blazing Sun that killed Xia Hou Ding..."

Xiang Jia's body trembled, his soul shuddering continuously as he recalled some terrifying scene.

"You are using such an attack at the late Foundation Establishment stage; there must be a price!"

"The one who dies will certainly not be me!"

He gritted his teeth, revealing a look of absolute resolve.

Suddenly, he bit his tongue, chewing it into a mush as if it were tofu; a huge gush of vital blood flowed out, spraying entirely onto the Boundary Array Disc, causing its spiritual light to suddenly flare up and the array's operation speed to become vastly more efficient and streamlined.

As it turned, array patterns spread everywhere, and an aura far more terrifying than before radiated outward.

"Pfft!"

Xiang Jia still refused to give up; he smashed his fist violently against his chest, striking like a mortal enemy, causing his chest to cave in without him even noticing, and he spat out a mouthful of scalding vital blood mixed with fragments of his heart.

It fell onto the Boundary Array Disc.

Its blood-red light surged several times, its spiritual light flickered, and even vaguely caused a trace of sentience to appear within it.

This was the innate vital blood of a Brother Brother Xuanwu candidate disciple, carefully cultivated by the Brother Brother Xuanwu Heavenly Palace for many years,

one with the potential for Soul Transformation!

What supreme treasures or great pills? Compared to this vital blood, they were not even worthy of mentioning their shoes.

Even if so many mouthfuls were spat onto a stubborn stone, it would one hundred percent turn into a stone demon, and its innate bloodline would be an exceptionally excellent existence.

"Four-Pole · Azure Dragon!"

"Four-Pole · Zhu Que!"

Xiang Jia's eyes turned red, and he roared at the sky like a madman.

Having lost so much innate vital blood, he was already ruined!

Forget about his cultivation; whether he could even survive was unknown, but as long as he killed the Blazing Sun Sword Disciple, he could directly meet a projection of a Great Being, and everything would still have hope.

Boom!

The Boundary Array Disc, now possessing a trace of sentience, danced wildly in blood-red light; with the instinct of a spirit, it manipulated the array, gathering endless heavenly and earthly Qi, as strands of starry malevolent energy converged together.

A hundred-zhang-tall Zhu Que shrieked at the sky.

A hundred-zhang-long Azure Dragon writhed and danced in the sky, roaring wildly.

And the black-striped Bai Hu, which had originally existed and now revived, roared.

The pressure of the three mythical beasts, resurrected from legend, spread out; rolling sound waves shook all directions, tearing apart hundreds of thousands of armor-piercing shells, while the inert heavenly and earthly Qi trembled ceaselessly.

"Soul-Seeking · Three Divine Spirit Kill!"

Xiang Jia poured everything he had into it, roaring at the blue-gold Blazing Sun descending from the sky: "Blazing Sun Sword Disciple, die for me! Open up my new path! Die!"

Roar!

The Azure Dragon, Zhu Que, and Bai Hu, the three divine beasts, roared, causing starlight to descend from the void, vaguely forming four flying swords of green, red, and white.

Among them, the golden flying sword was hazy and indistinct, while the other three flying swords had malevolent energy surging to the heavens; even as mere phantoms, they seemed poised to slaughter and exterminate thousands of planetary realms, causing billions to wail and die, severing the karmic ties of ten thousand paths.

Four-Spirit Evil-Slaying Swords!

The supreme treasure anchoring the Brother Brother Xuanwu Heavenly Palace!

Three thousand years ago, the Brother Brother Xuanwu Heavenly Palace once used this sword to injure the last generation of the Blazing Sun Sword Master, which was a major factor contributing to his ultimate destruction.

At this moment, a wisp of sword Dao pressure upon it had been triggered; endless murderous intent spread in all directions, causing millions of cultivators' eyes to turn blood-red; regardless of whether they were at Foundation Establishment or Qi Condensation, none could control themselves, compelled to slaughter thousands of living beings, with the killing only stopping after they finally slew themselves.

"This is not the Sword Dao."

"I do not like it."

Jiang Ding said calmly, not even glancing at these four swords.

The blue-gold Blazing Sun descended.

It fell directly against the four-spirit evil-slaying swords—three real and one phantom—retreating or fearing nothing due to their momentum; this was not mere bravery or fearlessness.

This was absolute confidence!

Beneath my sword, I am invincible; all who face me shall die.

Why hesitate? Why retreat?

Above the starry sky,

countless gazes were cast down at this moment, watching the collision between the Four-Spirit Evil-Slaying Swords and the Blazing Sun Sword Dao once again after three thousand years.

Zzzt...

The blue-gold Blazing Sun of endless Law-Extinguishing True Intent collided with the Four-Spirit Evil-Slaying Swords; instead of the scene of each instantly annihilating the other as before, they became entangled.

In an instant, they clashed countless times, fighting fiercely.

One was destructive, scorching, and Law-Breaking;

the other was poisonous, domineering, and cursed.

Between their clashing spiritual lights, even a slight leakage caused several kilometers of land to shatter and melt, becoming a desolate wasteland for all life.

Slowly, the blue-gold Blazing Sun became more and more dazzling, and the light of Law-Extinguishing grew more brilliant.

The four spiritual swords, having lost their source of subsequent spiritual power, dimmed; with a thunderous explosion, they released their final afterwaves, emitting a large amount of cold cursed energy, lost their last trace of spiritual light, and collapsed into nothingness.

"This ragged sword of five colors is nothing special."

Jiang Ding sensed an extremely joyful emotion from the Great Clarity Flying Sword; its sword intent surged wildly, instantly reaching ninety-nine percent of its limit.

The terrifying aura of Broken Soul and Dharma Destruction spread in all directions; tens of thousands of Qi Condensation cultivators nearby rolled their eyes white and fainted immediately.

Even his own divine soul felt as if cut by a knife, a raw, unbearable pain, unable to bear this breakthrough in sword intent.

The rapid advancement of the sword intent ceased.

"The limit of the divine soul..."

Jiang Ding frowned.

A divine soul four times the strength of one's peer was already one in a hundred million among cultivators; apart from those born with a Dao Body who could exceed it slightly, this was the peak divine soul talent for cultivators.

Whoosh!

The blue-gold flying sword stopped its transformation; lines of magnetic sensation circled around it, the Annihilation Sword Intent suppressed all directions, and a slash of sword light swept out to kill Foundation Establishment cultivators one by one in every direction.

Bang! Bang! Bang!

A sound of heads shattering, clumps of blood blooming; hundreds of Foundation Establishment cultivators, before they could react, felt only a slight chill in their heads, lost all aura, and fell to the earth.

"Disciple Xiang is dead! Flee!"

A Foundation Establishment cultivator from the Brother Xuanwu Sky Palace cried out in terror.

"Where can you flee to?!"

A Foundation Establishment cultivator sighed deeply, dropped his defense, and faced the sky full of cannon shells; his body shattered and he died.

"Surrender..."

Another Foundation Establishment cultivator cried out in terror; having no loyalty to the so-called Sky Palace, he was triggered by the divine soul prohibition, and his head exploded and he died.

The gaze of the Brother Xuanwu Sky Palace's high officials fixed directly on this spot.

Watching the collision once more between the Four Spirits Evil-Slaying Sword and the Great Sun Sword Dao, three thousand years after the Great Sun Sword Pavilion's destruction; no Foundation Establishment cultivator could escape.

Moments later,

the world grew quiet; even the roaring and panting of the tank engines had stopped.

A round pearl with dim spiritual light was drawn into Jiang Ding's hand.

This was the core of the Brother Xuanwu Four Poles World-Stabilizing Array.

Faintly, a trace of dried blood could still be seen; after devouring all the vital blood of a Brother Xuanwu Candidate Disciple, it had already birthed a trace of spiritual awareness.

"... Great benefit... otherwise... you die..."

A faint spiritual consciousness fluctuation came from this trace of spiritual awareness; it was the most childish and direct lure and threat.

Crack!

Sword intent exploded from Jiang Ding's palm; the core of the Brother Xuanwu Four Poles World-Stabilizing Array and the trace of spiritual awareness it had birthed shattered into dust and scattered with the wind.

Boom... boom... boom...

At the same time, the thirty-six Heaven-Piercing World-Stabilizing Giant Pillars, already extremely dim, snapped and collapsed; one of the Brother Xuanwu Sky Palace's two arms in this world was forcibly severed.
