Chapter 1458

It seems you need a little help.

As this voice fell, the Earth Sword Marquis blinked slightly, then turned his head to look.

Only a white-robed man was seen, faint divine radiance flowing over his body, his face concealed by the radiance as if a deity had descended; beside him was a youthful sword cultivator of the Dao Void Realm, wearing a green shirt, with sword-like eyebrows and starry eyes, bearing a faint aura of life-and-death sword intent.

He could not see through the white-robed man.

This sword cultivator youth wore a green shirt; most importantly, his body bore no trace of gu creature aura, making him a pure-blooded human.

Above Earth Sword Prefecture, there were either the Gu tribe or members of the Eternal Life Sect; this green-clothed sword cultivator was the first true human he had ever seen!

But when did these two descend to this place?

He actually sensed nothing at all!

It was obvious that the white-robed man's cultivation surpassed his.

However, there seemed to be no malice on either of them.

The Earth Sword Marquis asked, "Who are you?"

Yang Xuan bowed respectfully to the Earth Sword Marquis, "Senior Earth Sword Marquis, I am Yang Xuan, and this is my master, Lord Lu."

What?

The Earth Sword Marquis's voice suddenly rose severalfold.

Not long ago he had just discussed Lu Xuan with the Black Abyss Elder; the Black Abyss Elder said that although Lord Lu had descended to the Butterfly World, he had already disappeared for tens of thousands of years, hiding away.

Who would have thought he would actually appear here?

At that moment, Lu Xuan moved his thought, the faint divine radiance veiling his face faded away, "Indeed, I am Lu Xuan."

The Earth Sword Marquis stared, dumbfounded!

"Master? Lord Lu…… are you taking disciples now?"

He remembered that before the endless ages, many sought to become his disciples, but Lord Lu never accepted any.

Even those supremely powerful beings of the Threefold Heaven Gate could not sway him!

Lu Xuan said lightly, "I saw your battle just now with the Black Abyss Elder. Now the Eternal Life Sect people are refining sword-intent gu, and the seal over these three prefectures will grow weaker. I can help you three remodel the sword formation."

But the Earth Sword Marquis was still immersed in the shock of Lu Xuan's appearance, his phantom continually trembling, countless questions arising in his mind.

Now Lord Lu is essentially no different from before.

He still wore white robes, his aura as one with heaven and earth, body united with the Dao, profoundly mysterious, making him impossible to see through.

"Earth Sword Marquis, what are you doing? Quickly activate the formation patterns!"

The Heaven Sword Marquis and the Mysterious Sword Marquis urged him on.

They were about to reseal the Black Abyss Elder; a hair's breadth off would lead to a thousand-mile error, and they never expected the Earth Sword Marquis to be distracted.

The Earth Sword Marquis exclaimed excitedly, "I have good news!"

"No matter what good news, seal the Black Abyss Elder first," the Heaven Sword Marquis and the Mysterious Sword Marquis said, frowning; they were unaware of the situation here.

The Earth Sword Marquis looked at Lu Xuan, "Lord Lu, then I..."

Lu Xuan gave a light nod.

The Earth Sword Marquis was overjoyed; his big hand kept forming seals, one after another sword talisman emerged, radiating brilliant divine radiance.

Sizzle—sizzle—sizzle—sizzle!

These sword talismans were like bolts of lightning, also bearing flame power, madly converging in the netherworld and shooting out through the ancient sword formation toward the central imperial palace.

Lu Xuan opened his Insight Eye and transmitted the image to Yang Xuan.

Yang Xuan was somewhat shocked.

As it turned out, Earth Sword Prefecture had long laid down a stupendous great formation, covering a billion li of land, forming a vast net; sword qi crisscrossed, like countless subterranean dark rivers constantly flowing, gathering a terrifying sword momentum with the might of a great domain.

Within this sword qi great formation, there were also the obsessions and wills of countless sword cultivators of the Sword Dynasty, blazing like a furnace fire.

Know that although the Sword Dynasty has utterly perished, it contained innumerable sword cultivators; though they died, their obsessions never faded, all merging into this sword formation.

Besides that, there were many spirit swords and broken swords, constantly sinking and floating within the sword formation.

The entire Earth Sword Prefecture, relying on different heavenly and earthly trends, formed many sword charts; within these sword charts were vast amounts of sword resonance, terrifying obsessions and wills.

However, after the passage of ages, some regional emperor sword charts have become damaged, some extremely weak.

But the main sword formation lies in the Earth Sword Marquis's manor; as long as the Earth Sword Marquis lives, the terrifying sword formation of Earth Sword Prefecture is eternal.

The terrifying sword momentum emanating from one region presses straight to the central lands of the Flame Sword Dynasty, killing intent fully revealed.

Likewise, Heaven Sword Prefecture and Mysterious Sword Prefecture each have a stupendous sword formation.

Three heaven-defying sword intent torrents surged into the Sword Dynasty's lands, mighty and vast.

For a moment, the heavens and earth of the three great sword prefectures trembled, as if heaven were collapsing and earth splitting; the Eternal Life Sect and the Gu tribe were all somewhat shocked, not knowing what had happened.

As the heavenly-piercing sword momentum of the three sword formations surged in, the flame spirit swords of the central imperial dynasty trembled wildly.

Buzz—buzz—buzz!

There originally was a stupendous sword intent river descending from the heavens, straight to the earth's depths, immensely wide and grand; now, as the three sword forces madly poured in, this sword qi river instantly rose with shocking waves, sword qi turning into white spray, also blazing with fierce divine fire, sword momentum and spirit fire roaring together.

Hiss!

The flame spirit sword emitted a soul-shaking sword cry; instantly the sword qi shot straight down at the sealed remnant soul of the Black Abyss Elder below.

There lay an infinite strange abyss, nearly covering half of the Sword Dynasty's imperial city.

This imperial city domain is vast and boundless, several times broader than the Earth Sword Marquis's manor!

Over myriad ages, the Black Abyss Elder has also been eroding this realm; his abyss phenomenon can inherently devour all things and many Daos, and now he likewise controls half of the imperial city.

Boom—boom!

In the underground world of the imperial city, that dark abyss is boundless, like an endless ocean rippling with terrifying waves; strange Dao resonance transforms into black-light black dragons that continually patrol.

This abyss phenomenon is like a dead silent world; the phenomenon has already merged with the true heaven and earth of the imperial city.

The Black Abyss Elder's soul resides within this abyss phenomenon; gazing at the terrifying sword momentum descending from the heavens, he condenses a ferocious, horrifying giant face, upon which appears a trace of ferocity mixed with mocking ridicule.

"You three idiots! Since you've come, don't leave!"

"The surging dark ghostly river instantly rolled up heaven-shaking waves; beneath the giant face, a huge phantom rose, and with a slap of his hand, he directly seized that terrifying sword-intent river."

"Eerie power invades!"

"Then the black eerie power, like a black swimming dragon, reversed the sword intent, actually pressing straight at the Three Provinces' fundamental sword formation; such technique can be called highly skilled."

"The Earth Sword Marquis exclaimed in shock, 'How are you so familiar with the sword formation?'"

"The Black Abyss Elder gave a hehehe laugh, 'Hehehe... I haven't been idle during these myriad ages; I have already sensed a hint of the fundamental meaning of your Three Provinces' sword formation. I am merely waiting for an opportunity. When you strengthen the seal, I will go against the current.'"

"I didn't expect this day to come so fast! The Zheng family's worm was also just a fluke; otherwise, do you think I would willingly expend enormous power just to save them? Hehe... I'm only trying to force you to act and reseal me."

"In an instant, the Earth Sword Marquis and the three realized they had been tricked: 'Damn it!'"
