Destined Antagonist: I Refuse To Annul The Engagement!

The deep sky suddenly stirred up a storm, with swirling starlight and flowing radiance, displaying an indescribable splendor.

Boom!

The stone monument began to tremble violently, and the ancient aura surged out, enveloping the entire desolate mountain.

The simple brilliance flickered and emitted strands of sacred human luck, flowing towards Jiang Xuan.

Jiang Xuan didn't perceive much of this. At this moment, he was deeply immersed in a profound understanding.

His sword path... was about to undergo a transformation again!

A few days ago, in the royal city, due to his wholehearted devotion, he touched his Dao heart, causing his sword path to gain some special qualities, becoming even sharper and more powerful.

And this time, perhaps influenced by the spirits of the elders and catalyzed by the will of humanity, he had a new realization, and his sword path underwent another transformation.

A vitality that should not have appeared in the sword path... emerged!

After this realization, his Sword Intent would reach perfection.

More importantly, he had a strong intuition... he would walk his own path in the sword.

Human luck poured into Jiang Xuan's body, and the will of humanity manifested. On a hazy continent, countless human figures gathered around the ancient and sacred human altar.

On the human altar, there was a majestic throne.

Sitting high on the throne was a burly figure wearing armor and a helmet, enveloped in a hazy radiance, exuding a majestic aura, overlooking the world.

As the human monument surged, human luck merged into Jiang Xuan's body.

On the hazy face of the majestic figure, a clear... corner of an eye gradually appeared.

There was no need to say more. Everyone suddenly realized that this clear corner of an eye belonged to the Young King Jiang Xuan!

The elders and other members of the Jiang family who guarded the lineage were filled with intense excitement. The manifestation of the Human King's omen further confirmed that Jiang Xuan was indeed the chosen Young King, destined by human luck and fate.

Immediately, they all bowed respectfully.

At this moment, outside the desolate mountain, the void rippled like the surface of water, forming layers of folds.

Five outstanding talents dressed in pure Yang sword robes walked out.

Before they had a chance to investigate the surrounding situation, they noticed the strange scene in the desolate mountain and sensed the sacred human luck.

"It seems that we are lucky. We have just entered the true divine realm and encountered an opportunity!"

One of the outstanding talents smiled, speaking in a relaxed tone with a hint of contentment.

They came from the Pure Yang Sword Palace, following Swordmaster Hengge to the Southern Divine Continent. They originally intended to capture Jiang Qiankun and seize the Jixia Academy from him, but that grandson Jiang Qiankun was too cunning!

The other four outstanding talents also smiled.

Immediately, they turned into sword light and swiftly flew towards the desolate mountain.

Following these five people, the void rippled again, and a young man with closed eyes walked out, strolling leisurely.

It was Jiang Hong, the divine bone of the Jiang family.

"Heh, there really is a problem!" Jiang Hong sneered and crushed the quota talisman in his hand.

He was worried that the quota talisman might be fraudulent, so he didn't use it. Instead, he used some rules to randomly teleport, but he was still affected by the quota talisman, which delayed his arrival.

Jiang Hong slightly raised his closed eyes, and a golden divine light flickered, confirming his current location, while also sensing the approximate location of the divine object he needed, the Mountain-Shaking Cauldron.

"I actually teleported here..." Jiang Hong frowned slightly. This place was a bit far from the Mountain-Shaking Cauldron.

Immediately, Jiang Hong looked towards the desolate mountain and naturally sensed the strangeness there.

"Opportunity?"

"The Mountain-Shaking Cauldron is far away, so there's no rush for now. Since there is a chance with human luck, it's worth exploring. If there is something to gain, it would be a good thing to take it along the way." Jiang Hong pondered.

Then, he calmly walked towards the desolate mountain.

With someone taking the lead, there was no need for him to be impatient. It would be better to reap the benefits as a bystander.

Moreover... his cultivation was only at the Divine Embryo Realm. Even if he had means to temporarily manipulate the rules of this world, there were still many restrictions.

If he hid in the shadows, he could easily take advantage.

But if he became the target of everyone's attacks and was targeted by those Profound Earth Realm geniuses, no matter how many means he had, it would be impossible to turn the tide.

At this time, the five outstanding talents from the Pure Yang Sword Palace had already arrived at the entrance of the gorge. They were immediately attracted by the phenomenon behind Jiang Xuan and their pupils contracted as they exclaimed, "The Human King's omen?!"

Then, they looked at the human monument surging with human luck and immediately concluded that Jiang Xuan was receiving the inheritance from the monument!

"The Inheritance of the Human King!!"

The five young talents were filled with excitement, their eyes gleaming with greed.

The old man and the others naturally noticed these young talents. Their faces turned slightly cold as they moved forward, holding weapons and blocking the path in front of the five.

"We don't welcome you here. Please leave immediately!" The old man said coldly.

The five young talents looked at the old man and immediately showed disdain. How dare a half-witted waste like him shout in front of them?

"I'm not afraid to tell you that we come from the Eastern Divine Continent's Pure Yang Sword Palace!"

The leader of the young talents spoke arrogantly, his gaze already bypassing the old man and falling on Jiang Xuan. Although he couldn't determine the other party's strength, the way he was dressed clearly indicated that he was a newcomer, most likely from a force in the Southern Divine Continent.

Therefore, he chose to directly address Jiang Xuan and coldly admonished, "I kindly advise you to stop accepting the inheritance!"

"Otherwise, it won't end well for you!"

"Furthermore... our Pure Yang Sword Palace's swordsmen have also come in person this time. If you don't hand over the inheritance now and we report it to the swordsman, it won't be as simple as just you dying!"

"I'm not afraid to tell you that our swordsman is an invincible figure from the previous era. He was born with a sword heart and has long entered the Profound Earth realm. His swordsmanship has even reached the mid-stage of Sword Intent!"

This young talent looked disdainfully at the old man and the others, sneering, "With the terrifying combat power of our swordsman, we don't even need a second strike to kill all of you!"

The other four young talents also smiled.

In fact, the young talents of their Pure Yang Sword Palace were generally weaker in talent compared to other top sects. They were often ridiculed and mocked by various sects, which naturally filled them with humiliation but also helplessness.

It wasn't until the emergence of the swordsman, Henge, that they felt a sense of turning the tables. Those who used to ridicule them naturally had to be repaid in kind.

In other words, these five people now had the mentality of small people who had achieved success.

However... they relied on Henge, not themselves.

The old man and the others remained unmoved, only coldly staring at the five, as if they were watching ignorant clowns.

Jiang Xuan continued to comprehend his own swordsmanship and naturally paid no attention to them.

The five young talents' expressions froze. They spoke to themselves, but no one paid them any attention. This situation undoubtedly made them extremely embarrassed.

They immediately became angry and ashamed.

"Stubborn fools!"

The five of them angrily shouted, summoning their spirit swords and attacking the old man and the others.

Although they were small people who had achieved success, the strength of these five young talents from the Pure Yang Sword Palace was not weak. They all had the cultivation of the late stage of Spirit Transformation and practiced the powerful sword techniques of the Pure Yang Sword Palace. While they might not be invincible at the same level, when they joined forces, they could barely fight against ordinary Profound Earth realm cultivators.

But in front of the old man and the others, they were definitely not enough.

"Deal with them cleanly and don't disturb the Young King." The old man ordered calmly.

"Yes!"

Everyone responded.

Immediately, they all wielded their weapons and engaged in battle.

In order to suppress the fluctuations of the battle to the minimum, to achieve a quick victory, and to avoid disturbing the Young King, the Jiang family members all mobilized, except for the old man, the only two Profound Earth realm cultivators, and... the ten Spirit Transformation cultivators.

The ten Spirit Transformation cultivators joined forces to set up a powerful killing formation, concealing their killing intent like a vast ocean.

Buzz...

In an instant, the five young talents were enveloped within it.

But the killing formation didn't suppress or kill them.

The purpose of the killing formation was simply to trap them and prevent the battle's aftermath from spreading and disturbing the Young King.

Immediately, the two Profound Earth realm old men entered the formation. Their crippled bodies suddenly burst forth with a fierce and wild aura, like a stormy sea.

The eyes of the five young talents widened in shock. Two... two Profound Earth realm cultivators!?

Only at this moment did they realize that they had been seeking death all along!

"No!!"

Accompanied by the five's consecutive cries of despair, the battle quickly came to an end.

The result was obvious.

As the formation dissipated, the bloodied bodies of the five young talents were scattered on the ground.

However... the two Profound Earth realm old men did not leave. They looked towards another direction, their gaze cold and filled with killing intent.

The ten Spirit Transformation cultivators were the same, their expressions solemn as they stood ready.

The old man also floated over, his eyes filled with undisguised killing intent. He said coldly, "To the friend who wants to play the role of a fisherman, I advise you to give up on this idea!"
