Chapter 861

He was a towering figure of the Sword Dao who had shaken the Moonhua Sword Dao world for many years.

The founding ancestor of the Heavenly Sword Sect, possessing a cultivation base at the peak of the Heavenly Human realm and an unparalleled attainment as a Sword King!

Nameless and surnameless, he styled himself: Heavenly Sword!

To one side stood a middle-aged man of striking heroism, clad in a deep blue long robe and wearing a hair crown.

This man's name was Wang Yuquan!

He was a Supremacy Elder of the Heavenly Sword Sect, possessing a cultivation base at the late stage of the Heavenly Human realm and a perfected attainment as a Sword King!

At the same time, he was also one of the mentors responsible for teaching Jiang Zhi the cultivation of the Sword Dao.

The descent of two Heavenly Humans to the Heart Sword Sect together demonstrated the importance they attached to today's affairs!

And right behind them stood two men and one woman.

They were Ning Zhengqi, Nie Wushuang, and... Jiang Zhi!

After several months, the youthful immaturity had long since faded from Jiang Zhi's face.

She wore a set of green robes, her beautiful hair cascading like a waterfall, fluttering in the wind.

Her features were delicate and clear, her eyebrows and eyes painted like a masterpiece, her temperament cold and aloof.

Hanging at her waist was a three-foot green blade; surging sword intent seemed to brew within it, causing the blade hidden inside the scabbard to tremble slightly, constantly emitting crisp roaring sounds, as if it would burst forth at any moment to deliver a fatal strike against an enemy!

Under the abundant resources of the Heavenly Sword Sect and the guidance of multiple Heavenly Humans.

Nowadays, Jiang Zhi had already undergone a complete transformation.

Not only had her Sword Dao realm broken through to the stage of a Small Accomplishment Sword King.

But even her cultivation realm had leaped across several major realms, arriving at the ninth layer of the Moon Wheel realm.

Relying on her profound foundation, she was fully capable of killing Sun Wheel cultivators across realms, or even contending with Phenomenon cultivators!

At this moment, seeing the main character appear, the entire crowd instantly boiled over with excitement!

"Sword King Bai Hong! I have long heard your name; today I finally have the honor to meet you, and I shall have no regrets in this life!"

"Bearing such an aura, she must be the number one genius of the current Sword Dao world!"

"What a powerful momentum! Her edge is fully exposed, far exceeding the rumors; such breathtaking brilliance is a peerless monster rarely seen in ten thousand years, nothing like us mortals!"

"Yes, I feel the same; could it be that this Sword King Bai Hong is an immortal descended from the Immortal Realm to the mortal world?"

"Extraordinary, resembling an immortal; Sword King Bai Hong, truly seeing is believing..."

The entire crowd became exceptionally noisy, filled with discussions everywhere.

Jiang Yan's gaze condensed, and a faint smile appeared on the corner of his mouth: "I did not expect that after several months, you would have grown to such an extent."

Recalling all sorts of past events.

That young girl, with a face full of immaturity and awkwardness in speech, boldly issued a challenge to Brother Chen within the Cangwu Mountain.

Although Brother Chen rejected her, stating that her current cultivation base was too low and that she would surely lose if she challenged him.

Yet, because of this, a promise was made.

If she reached the Purple Palace realm, she would be given the opportunity to challenge him.

However, due to being busy with cultivation, coupled with her participating in the Sword Trial of Great Qin, the promise was postponed.

Until later, when she entered the Heavenly Sword Sect for training, the promise of this duel was postponed once again.

Thinking of this, Jiang Yan looked at Jiang Zhi high in the sky and silently said in his heart: "However, although your progress is great, Brother Chen's progress is even greater; with your current strength, you are still far from sufficient to challenge him!"

"Brother Chen has always kept this matter in mind, looking forward to fighting you; I hope that when the time comes, you will not disappoint him..."

Jiang Yan shook his head and laughed silently.

High above in the sky.

The Heavenly Sword Ancestor looked at the Shanmen of the Heart Sword Sect before him and spoke in an extremely plain tone: "Old Ghost Wang, this old man has arrived."

The voice was not loud, yet it rang out clearly in the ears of everyone.

Whether it was the sword cultivators watching from the foot of the mountain or the Heart Sword Sect cultivators on the mountain, every single person could hear it!

At this moment, inside the main hall of the Heart Sword Sect.

Several figures stood within.

Besides the Sect Master of the Heart Sword Sect and the Dao Son Wang Yuhuan.

There were also Zhou Xuan and others from the Medicine King Valley.

Nowadays, without exception, everyone was looking together at the same place.

There, seated cross-legged beneath the golden statue of the ancestor ahead, was a middle-aged man with white eyebrows and white hair.

The middle-aged man kept his eyes tightly closed, his complexion ruddy, while a bloody halo faintly emanated from the surface of his skin.

Upon hearing the voice of the Heavenly Sword Ancestor, he suddenly opened his eyes, revealing sharp pupils akin to those of a goshawk.

"Heavenly Sword, it is time to settle the grudges of the past."

The Heart Sword Ancestor Wang Jizhou turned his head to look at the crowd.

His gaze landed on Zhou Xuan.

"Pass on my thanks to Valley Master Zhou; if I truly achieve the Saint realm this time, I will certainly abide by our agreement and guard his Dao when he undergoes the Saint Tribulation in the future..."

Zhou Xuan cupped his hands and said: "Many thanks, Senior Wang; I believe that with this sword invitation, you will definitely be able to break the shackles, reach the peak of the Sword Saint realm, and become the undisputed number one person in our Moonhua Sword Dao world!"

"By that time, even someone as powerful as Heavenly Sword will be nothing more than a stumbling child before you."
