Chapter 334: The Sword Seed, You Dare to Die!

While Lu Yang assisted the split soul in breaking through the tribulation within the 【Non-Existent Heaven】, he also did not forget to monitor the battlefield between the True Person of Purging Demons and the 【Profound Spirit Realm】.

To be honest, he was somewhat worried.

After all, the True Person of Purging Demons was alone; for some reason, the Yushu Jiange had not sent any other reinforcements, and the others were merely a handful of scattered individuals.

However, after a moment's thought, Lu Yang calmed down again.

In his view, the cultivators of the 【Profound Spirit Realm】 were still too naive; what kind of broken place was this? Did they really think everyone would fight them at the same realm?

'Not to mention that the Yushu Jiange only sent out the True Person of Purging Demons, which is eighty percent likely due to their immense confidence in him; even if a slight crisis truly arose, would the True Lords of the Yushu Jiange just watch? At the very least, that 【Cheng Tian Zheng De True Lord】 from the Ye family would surely send a sword qi to slash down from afar!'

Anyway, they had experience.

Back then, how heavenly a genius was the Venerable You? Wasn't he also killed by a single sword strike like this? To a True Lord, there was no real difference between the early stage of Foundation Establishment and the perfection of Foundation Establishment.

However, very soon, Lu Yang found that he himself was naive.

There was no need for a True Lord to intervene at all.

Above the Firmament, the True Person of Purging Demons stood with hands behind his back, his sword still in its sheath; yet by merely manifesting the scene of a Blessed Land, he blocked everyone from the 【Profound Spirit Realm】!

'Daoist, cease your actions.'

The True Person of Purging Demons sighed: 'The Dao Lords of the Four Directions have set a plan, using the myriad worlds and heavens as food.'

'The 【Profound Spirit Realm】 where you reside is considered relatively large; the fruit position still exists in the world, and the contact time has not been long, so there is still time to escape. If you leave in time and sever your connection to this realm, there may still be hope to escape with your life; otherwise, given time, it will inevitably lead to the suffering of all beings in a world.'

The True Person of Purging Demons spoke with sincere words, yet the Minghua Heavenly Immortal simply did not understand.

Dao Lord? What realm is that?

More importantly, he always felt there was no problem with himself; although the True Person of Purging Demons' strength exceeded his expectations, he was still confident of victory this time!

'Summon 【Ling Yang】!'

The next second, the Minghua Heavenly Immortal formed a hand seal, and a wheel of heavenly fire appeared above his head; he held it in his palm, emitting boundless light and heat. Orange-red splendor scattered in all directions, causing all things to distort, as if they were about to fall into that wheel of heavenly fire in his hand!

This treasure was his greatest confidence for this journey.

Its name is 【Ling Yang】; as the name implies, its essence is formed from the sun of the 【Profound Spirit Realm】, forged by the supreme ruler of the 【Profound Spirit Realm】!

'Boom!'

In an instant, the blazing heavenly fire, like a voracious Taotie beast, ruthlessly devoured everything around, causing the True Person of Purging Demons to frown involuntarily.

He was not afraid of such a method.

However, Ye Guyue and Ye Xingfeng behind him, and even the group of early-stage Foundation Establishment cultivators, could not hold on; it was obvious that the Minghua Heavenly Immortal had actually seen through the situation.

'You want to protect these people!'

'Truly a foolish person! Since that is the case, I will use them to tie up your energy; as one declines, the other rises, and no matter how powerful you are, you are not my match!'

The Minghua Heavenly Immortal's calculations were excellent; at this moment, he activated 【Ling Yang】, and waves of orange-red sea of fire followed one after another, clearly aimed at large-scale slaughter. It not only encompassed the True Persons behind the True Person of Purging Demons but also intended to destroy the ten thousand miles of fertile land below!

Seeing this scene, the True Person of Purging Demons finally put away his expression of compassion and placed his hand on the magical sword at his waist.

The sword is named 【No Killing】; its guard is inlaid with the Cheng Tian Gang Big Dipper array patterns, the hilt is wrapped in five-colored shark silk to attract thunder, the sheath is covered in leather of the black turtle carrying the map, and the tassel is tied with the fruit of the Taiyi Green Li.

'... The will of Heaven.'

A faint sigh.

Before the words had fully faded, sword intent shot up to the sky; the True Person of Purging Demons drew a three-foot stream of light from the sheath, instantly flooding the entire visible world.

This sword strike, at its start like the Milky Way collapsing clouds, and in its momentum like a white rainbow drinking from a stream.

Where it passed, the wind condensed into crystals, light stagnated into clouds, and before the sword's cry could rise, it had already destroyed the sun and moon, causing flying fire to roll back; as the afterimage arrived, one could still see the layers of clouds in the nine heavens tearing like silk.

The sword light condensed frost into blades and shattered jade into rays; green and white colors intertwined upon it, like a blue dragon holding the moon, and thus, without deviation, holding justice and staying centered, it slashed into the sky-high sea of fire created by the Minghua Heavenly Immortal, drawing that entire sea of fire into itself, shooting up to the sky, and finally exploding at the very edge of the Firmament.

'Whoosh, whoosh!'

What should have been a deafening roar that was silent, upon falling left only a gentle breeze; one could only see the remaining light condensing into a green phoenix chasing the sun, and the sword qi scattering into a white deer holding a branch.

'What a sword light!'

Lu Yang saw this scene clearly; compared to this sword strike, the sword lights cast by other True Persons of the Yushu Jiange could not even be called swords!

This was absolutely not the power of a supernatural ability!

'No wonder the Yu Shu Yushu Jiange dares to claim to be number one in magical combat; this sword strike is probably the true essence of the Yushu Jiange... simply overwhelmingly powerful beyond belief!'

The Minghua Heavenly Immortal, and even the three Earth Immortals behind him, were all swept away by the True Person of Purging Demons' sword strike, landing at the very edge of the Firmament, with the sky raining down debris; only seven Human Immortals comparable to the mid-stage of Foundation Establishment remained in place, their expressions panicked, each covered in blood, having all suffered severe injuries simultaneously!

'Act!'

Almost simultaneously, Ye Guyue transmitted a voice via spiritual sense: 'They have been struck by Uncle's 【No Killing Sword Intent】; their combat power is currently less than fifty percent of their peak!'

The Minghua Heavenly Immortal was, after all, at the perfection of Foundation Establishment in the 【Profound Spirit Realm】.

Plus the three Earth Immortals comparable to the late stage of Foundation Establishment; even the True Person of Purging Demons could not kill them with a single sword strike, so there would inevitably be a period of entangled fighting.

If the True Person of Purging Demons did not care about the lives of others, he could surely unleash his sword freely; however, since he had to protect people, he naturally had to spend more effort; thus, he not only brought the Minghua Heavenly Immortal and others to the very edge of the Firmament but also deliberately dispersed the sword qi, severely injuring all seven remaining Human Immortals.

Everything was arranged perfectly.

In his calculations, in such a situation, Ye Guyue and Ye Xingfeng were sufficient to finish the job, after all, both were True Persons of the Yushu Jiange and direct disciples of a True Lord.

However—

'Xingfeng, do not use your full strength later.'

While acting, Ye Guyue secretly transmitted a voice to Ye Xingfeng beside him: 'Uncle is foolish and has been taken advantage of by the heart demon; we should relieve our junior uncle of his burden.'

'Relieve his burden?' Ye Xingfeng was somewhat confused.

'Exactly!' Ye Guyue said in a deep voice: '【Shen Jin】 is a rare treasure of heaven and earth; it belongs to the virtuous; how can we let that Jiangbei loose cultivator named Lu Yang possess it?'

'Uncle not taking it is his confusion.'

'That loose cultivator resides in Jiangbei and is already entangled in sin; we can let him be reborn and enter the Yushu Jiange, which is already a heavenly grace; how can we indulge him further?'

Ye Xingfeng deeply agreed with this but could not help frowning: 'But if we take 【Shen Jin】, how do we explain it to Uncle?'

'That is simple.' Ye Guyue said coldly: 'Later, you will deliberately open a gap.'

'Let these outsiders from beyond the heavens kill that loose cultivator; once he is dead, 【Shen Jin】 will have no owner, and we can take it back, naturally able to explain it to Uncle.'

"As for that rogue cultivator, if he dies, so be it.

"This counts as his karmic opportunity; it is fitting to send him to reincarnate. At worst, I shall guide him later to join the Yushu Jiange, take him as my disciple, and settle the karmic debt."

Hearing this, Ye Xingfeng immediately nodded: "Excellent!"

With this thought, the sword lights in both their hands instantly slackened for a moment.

Both sides were already in fierce combat; the seven Human Immortals of the Profound Spirit Realm, led by Cheng Xian, naturally noticed this flaw immediately.

'An opportunity... take Shen Jin first!'

Without the slightest hesitation, Cheng Xian rode a streak of escape light, pierced through Ye Guyue's blockade, and, following the sensation of Shen Jin, slaughtered his way into the boat!

Meanwhile, on the other side, Ye Xingfeng was 'coincidentally' held back by the other Human Immortals.

"Boom!"

The next second, the sealed chamber where Lu Yang was in seclusion was directly blasted apart, revealing the scene within.

Within the shattered chamber, Lu Yang's divided soul returned from the Non-Existence Heaven; he opened his eyes, and the four divine arts within his sea of consciousness shone brilliantly!

"Heh."

Lu Yang's main body constantly monitored the battlefield; how could Ye Guyue and Ye Xingfeng's petty moves escape his notice? At this moment, he naturally laughed coldly:

'Sword Seed... you seek death!'
