Chapter 801

"Pfft!"

Instantly, fresh blood burst forth!

The heavily armored man looked at Yang Xuan with a shocked face and said, "You, you're cheating!"

Just now, seeing Yang Xuan's expression, he still thought someone was ambushing him from behind.

But there was none!

It was Yang Xuan who wanted to ambush him!

Yang Xuan's mouth corner twitched slightly, his right hand opened, and the Qingxuan Sword shot back again.

"Hiss!"

The heavily armored man gritted his teeth, the vitality on his body continually fading, "Are you a sword cultivator or a lowly cultivator?!"

"Boom!"

His corpse fell from the sky.

Not far away, Old Ji stared dumbfounded at this scene.

He said to Lian Qianli, "Yang Xuan has learned to be bad so quickly."

Lian Qianli's delicate lips parted slightly, not knowing how to evaluate Yang Xuan.

Over the next few days, Yang Xuan, Old Ji, and Lian Qianli took some sword cultivators and went around slaughtering.

For a time, Yang Xuan's reputation slowly spread.

Numerous Ghost Realm Divine Sovereign realm powerhouses were all speechless.

You must know that over these many years they have fought many battles with the sword cultivators of the Sword Qi Great Wall, and in their view, sword cultivators ought to be upright and honorable like the Free and Easy Master and Little Alian.

Win, win honorably.

Lose… the Ghost Realm can ambush, after all they are not sword cultivators, so they need not observe martial ethics.

But Yang Xuan actually does ambush!

Simply outrageous!

"In the low-star Divine Sovereign realm battlefield, beware of a blue-clothed sword cultivator."

"This guy is ambushing!"

"What does he look like? There are too many blue-clothed ones; who the heck knows which one is Yang Xuan?"

"Together with a rotten old man and a female blade cultivator."

"Damn it! This person is so despicable!"

…

Burial God Abyss.

Lu Xuan leisurely lay upon the starry sky, leisurely reading a storybook.

Not far away, Tie Xiaoqing had a serious expression as she cooked.

Cooking smoke rose in wisps.

Recently, Tie Xiaoqing, aside from cooking and cultivating, has been seriously studying the jade slip of a recipe given to her by the Lu Sovereign Master.

She felt as if she were about to be filled with happiness.

In between cooking, she watched Lu Xuan's appearance as he read the storybook, little stars glittering in her eyes.

She thought to herself, "The Lu Sovereign Master is really kind, just like family."

But she had a question she dared not ask the Lu Sovereign Master.

Why did the Lu Sovereign Master previously give a lecture beneath the World Tree of the Myriad Heavens?

But now he no longer gives lectures?

Could it be that someone has betrayed the Lu Sovereign Master?

She understood that human nature is greedy, the Lu Sovereign Master is selfless, but those who listened to his lectures were not necessarily selfless.

What exactly happened back then…

Not far away, a system voice came to Lu Xuan's ear.

Ding! The host's eldest disciple, Ji Fuyao, has increased in cultivation; synchronization begins!

Ding! The host's second disciple, Ye Chen, has improved in martial prowess; synchronization begins!

Ding! The host's fourth disciple, Bai Li, has increased in Ghost Dao insight; synchronization begins!

"……"

Ding! The host's eighth disciple, Yang Xuan, has improved in sword Dao; synchronization begins!

The sound fell!

A vast amount of cultivation foundation surged into his body like great rivers, impacting his limbs and bones.

The numb, tingling sensation reappeared.

His true cultivation directly broke through to the Eight-Star Divine Sovereign Realm!

At the same time, a vast amount of insight turned into specks of starlight, flowing into his mind.

Numerous Grand Dao insights roared in unison!

Lu Xuan nodded lightly, "Not bad, not bad."

Suddenly

"Boom!"

"Crack!"

Void Rending!

Space twisted!

Xiao Qing, wearing a green robe, slowly walked out from the void crack, her face showing a hint of worry, her long hair somewhat disheveled, as if she had just had a nightmare.

In the next instant, Xu Kun also transformed into a human shape and walked out, saying to Lu Xuan, "Master, Xiao Qing seems to have seen a corner of the River of Time."

"Oh?"

Lu Xuan turned his gaze toward Xiao Qing.

Xiao Qing quickly flung herself into Lu Xuan's embrace, her delicate body trembling slightly, a faint fragrance emanating from her, her eyes reddening as she let out a "wu-wu" sound.

Lu Xuan stroked Xiao Qing's hair and asked, "What's wrong?"

Xiao Qing lifted her head, her exquisite face filled with fear, "Lu Xuan, I have seen something terrifying. I don't know whether it is from the past or the future, and I don't know if what I saw is really me."

Lu Xuan said, "Let me take a look."

Xiao Qing brought her delicate, fair jade forehead close to Lu Xuan.

Lu Xuan pointed a finger forward.

"Hiss!"

A stream of light surged into Xiao Qing's brow, and in an instant, a strand of Lu Xuan's divine sense stepped into a terrifying realm.

Here, bleak spatial gusts blew intermittently, the Grand Dao constantly wailed, and the heavens above were exceedingly dim.

Countless threads floated all around!

This is the power of karma!

Lu Xuan's illusory form stood on a patch of scorched earth; as he walked forward, everywhere he saw was utter desolation, no grass grew, there was hardly any spiritual energy, and black mist permeated the surroundings.

Not long after, he saw a massive black shadow in the distance, hidden within the endless black mist.

That black shadow stood towering, emitting rumblings of the Grand Dao.

Lu Xuan sensed that the black mist contained strange power, destructive power, and Gu Clan power, among many other auras of the Grand Dao.

When Lu Xuan stepped into the black mist, he saw an incredibly ancient giant tree.

The giant tree's roots were entrenched in the earth, thick and dense like a spiderweb, continually extending deep underground, but many of those roots had rotted, corroded by the Grand Dao, appearing diseased.

Not only that!

The giant tree's condition is dire!

Its massive trunk bore countless scars, as strange power, destructive power, and Gu Clan power gave rise to spirit insects that ceaselessly devoured the giant tree's Grand Dao essence.

Many of its branches and leaves had withered.

Countless branches drooped down like heavenly maidens scattering flowers, containing an ineffable Dao and rhyme; this is absolutely a power surpassing the Nine Star Sovereign Realm!

This realm does not even belong to the world of the Burial God Abyss; perhaps it lies in the Upper Realm!

Lu Xuan stared at this towering giant tree, slightly startled, "Willow God?"

But he quickly shook his head.

This is not a willow tree.

This is a locust tree.

However, he sensed a trace of Xiao Qing's aura on this locust tree.

Is this Xiao Qing's true form?

The so-called Heavenly Dao, Human Dao, and many Grand Daos ultimately share the same origin.

But, when Lu Xuan wanted to continue probing this giant tree.

"Whoosh!"

A gentle breeze blew down, and a verdant leaf fell before Lu Xuan.

Lu Xuan opened his palm, and the locust tree leaf drifted into his hand.

Lush and verdant, almost dripping.

"Boom!"

In the next instant, this scene shattered into countless specks of light, and that strand of Lu Xuan's divine sense also emerged.

Lu Xuan slowly opened his eyes, looking at the locust tree leaf in his hand, slightly startled.

This locust tree leaf was actually brought out.

Lu Xuan pondered for a moment; this locust tree leaf carried the aura of the World Tree.

A flash of lightning crossed his mind, and he involuntarily muttered.

"Could it be that..."
