Becoming an immortal against the will of heaven

“A Celestial Sword! A Celestial Sword! Is that a Celestial Sword passed down from the ancient Celestial Realm?!”

Upon seeing a long sword faintly appearing within the male corpse, Nie Tianzun's eyes immediately shone with a bright light, his greed on full display.

“This sword shall be mine from now on!” After licking his lips, Nie Tianzun fiercely kicked the golden dragon beneath him, urging it to fly towards the male corpse.

At this moment, the male corpse had completely reached the end of his rope. He was originally a Sword Spirit, but during his tens of thousands of years of slumber, he gradually absorbed the power of the Celestial Sword within his body, thus awakening a trace of sentience. It wasn't until Chen Tian and the others arrived, and Hou Zhen's self-explosion caused him to reawaken.

But now, he had already exhausted the power accumulated within his body, causing his consciousness to gradually become muddled, on the verge of falling back into a heavy slumber.

And this sleep, I'm afraid, he would never wake up from again.

Of course, Nie Tianzun wouldn't care about any of this. At this moment, in his eyes, there was only the shadow of that Celestial Sword.

One must know that this was a treasure from the ancient Celestial Realm. If he could obtain it, then with Nie Tianzun's strength, wouldn't he be able to sweep across the world?

Thinking this, the color of greed in Nie Tianzun's eyes grew even more intense, constantly urging the golden dragon beneath him to fly towards the male corpse.

The surrounding cultivators were also shocked by this revealed Celestial Sword. Within their gazes, jealousy and envy constantly flickered, but when their peripheral vision swept towards Nie Tianzun, a trace of fear rose in their hearts.

They knew that Nie Tianzun was only half a step away from stepping into the Zhutian Realm, his strength reaching the heavens, far beyond what they could cope with. Therefore, rushing up at this time would only be courting death.

Thinking this, even if they were jealous in their hearts, the crowd still shook their heads, giving up the idea of stepping forward to compete for the treasure.

He Busi's eyes also flashed with a strong, brilliant light. This trip to the Demon Realm Ruins had resulted in the greatest loss for him, so his greed for Celestial treasures was even more serious than others. If Nie Tianzun hadn't come, He Busi would have gone up to compete no matter what.

But now…

Looking at Nie Tianzun, who was rapidly approaching the male corpse, a look of helplessness flashed in He Busi's eyes, and the previous greed had now turned into deep fear.

Not to mention him now, even the him before he was injured and before he lost his magic weapons would never be a match for this Nie Tianzun. Therefore, wanting to snatch the Celestial Sword from Nie Tianzun's hands was definitely a ridiculous thing.

Alarmed in his heart, He Busi, like everyone else, could only stand in place, sighing.

But just when everyone was in a state of panic, a look of determination couldn't help but appear on Chen Tian's face. He saw his eyes flashing rapidly, as if he was thinking about something.

But before long, Chen Tian seemed to have made up his mind. A flash of light flashed in his eyes, and his footsteps moved slightly, about to rush forward.

“Hmph, this sword belongs to our Shendao Sect, no one can take it away!”

However, just as Chen Tian was about to make a move, a sound like a rolling thunder suddenly erupted from the distant sky.

Everyone's eyes were originally focused on the male corpse and the Celestial Sword, so after hearing this sound suddenly, their hearts were all startled, and they hurriedly looked up in the direction of the sound.

Chen Tian was slightly surprised when he saw this sudden scene, then his brows furrowed, and he also stopped his movements and looked up.

He saw that in another piece of the sky, a red light, like a burning flame, was rushing towards this side at lightning speed.

And in the sky full of red light, a red-haired, red-clothed man was revealed.

“It's him!”

Chen Tian's expression couldn't help but change slightly, because this person was the red-haired man he had fought with after he killed the Nanhai Daoist previously.

Chen Tian remembered that this person's cultivation had also reached the late stage of the Ninghai Realm, but even so, compared with Nie Tianzun, who was at the peak of the Ninghai Realm, he was still far behind. If they really fought, he would definitely not be Nie Tianzun's opponent, so since that was the case, why would he come to court death?

Thinking of this, Chen Tian suppressed the curiosity in his heart and continued to watch the sudden change in the situation.

He saw that the red-haired man's speed was extremely fast, wrapped in the red light, and he flew here in a short while, and shouted again: “Nie Tianzun, this sword already belongs to our Shendao Sect, if you take another step forward, then you will be an enemy of our Shendao Sect, do you really want to do this?”

Seeing someone suddenly come, Nie Tianzun was also slightly stunned, slowing down his pace, but when he saw clearly that the person who came was this red-haired man, he immediately laughed in anger: “I thought who it was, it turned out to be the Great Elder Gu Yunao of the Shendao Sect, hehe, with your strength that has just stepped into the late stage of the Ninghai Realm, you want to be an enemy of this old man, you simply don't know how to live or die! Let me tell you, except for your ancestor Kong Lingzi, this old man doesn't care about anyone else in the Shendao Sect! If you don't want to die, then retreat quickly, otherwise, don't blame this venerable for turning his face and not recognizing you!”

Red light soared into the sky, stirring up the void here, causing the wind and clouds to change color. A series of violent hurricanes, centered on the jade slip, wantonly sprinkled out. The cultivators present, although they all had the cultivation of the Ninghai Realm, under this storm, their bodies actually began to gradually become unstable, swaying from side to side, as if they were about to be blown away.

He Busi was seriously injured, and after being blown by this storm, his face became even paler. Unsteady, he was about to fall.

But at this moment, a soft golden light suddenly held up his falling body, and he stood up again. Immediately afterwards, the golden light transformed, forming a circular罩罩, protecting him from being blown by this storm.

Seeing this scene, He Busi was stunned for a moment, then he seemed to have come back to his senses, and hurriedly thanked Chen Tian beside him: “Thank you, Brother Yang, for your help.”

Chen Tian smiled slightly when he saw this, and didn't say anything, but turned around again and looked towards the sky.

However, at the moment of turning his head, Chen Tian's face instantly darkened!
