Supreme Emperor of Swords

“Well, do you want to leave easily after killing people from the Falling Star Sect?”

With a snort, a giant golden palm suddenly appeared in the distant void.

In the beginning, the palm was only a few meters away, but in the approaching process, it expanded infinitely and became extremely large in a twinkling of an eye. It tore the void and was pressing on Wang Juefeng from a distance. The wind and clouds were surging, and the force was so powerful that everyone looked at them. The palm print contained an extraordinary power and it could not be resisted. Wang Juefeng was actually fixed in place!

Wang Juefeng’s face changed, and he only felt that he was pressed on by a mountain. The terrible pressure was suffocating. This was definitely not a force that he could resist. Before the handprint approached, he had lost his ability to resist.

Before Wang Juefeng made any response, he had to force himself to fight desperately in an instant.

When the disciples of the Swordsmanship-seeking Sect who had retreated saw it, they widened their eyes and were about to return to save him, but they were pushed away by the horrible force so that they couldn’t approach him at all.

At that critical moment—

“Swoosh!”

A sword sound rang out.

From the mountain gate of the Swordsmanship-seeking Sect, a blood-red flame came first. It was as thin as the hair. It wrapped around the golden giant hand. In an instant, it cut the hand into small pieces of golden powder and the powder gradually faded into the void.

“I’m killing the bad people from your Falling Star Sect. What can you do to me?”

The old monster, Qi Qingshan, didn’t give in at all, and his cold words floated down from the mountain.

There was a sudden burst of cheers in the mountain gate.

As a super master ranking second after the “Deity Phoenix Sage” on the Powerful Top List in the Snow Province, the old monster Qi Qingshan and the Sect Chief Li Jianyi were spiritual pillars in many disciples’ eyes. Qi Qingshan took action and it instantly boosted the morale of the disciples of the Swordsmanship-seeking Sect. Many disciples had been seriously injured and tired, but at the moment they cheered with excitement.

As long as such a master guarded the sect, the Swordsmanship-seeking Sect would not collapse.

The pressure on Wang Juefeng was relieved. Without hesitation, he immediately led the guarding disciples to retreat to the “Yang Lock”, the second pass. The next moment, the inscription formation was launched. All kinds of sword Qi and inscription symbols flashed all over the sky, forming layers of invisible and powerful shields. The strong power and aura were flickering to guard the pass.

Even a master at the Peak of the Martial King Realm would have to take much time to break through these layers of defense formations.

“Hmph, old monster, you can run wild for a while. I will break through the Swordsmanship-seeking Mountain sooner or later. At that time, I will definitely kill you.” A furious snort came from the distant sky. It was the voice of the master from the Falling Star Sect who had attacked Wang Juefeng before. Immediately, the frightening force slowly receded.

A red sun slowly rose behind the snow mountains in the distance.

There was a blood-red hue between heaven and earth.

The battle had finally come to a halt.

Both sides needed to take a rest and conduct reorganization.

The Swordsmanship-seeking Sect had lost at least more than 200 disciples, and it had also lost the first pass. The situation was very serious.

The various force invaders’ loss was more than three times that of the Swordsmanship-seeking Sect—of course, compared with their large number, the sect’s loss was still acceptable. Moreover, most killed invaders in the battle were from small sects and rogue cultivators. The foundations of the top-ranking sects such as the Tranquility Academy, the Falling Star Sect, and the Leiyin Sect had not been harmed.

Badly mutilated corpses were lying in and out of the “Sword Gate”.

The blood puddles on the ground had frozen, and the blood ice, like layers of magnificent blood-colored gems, condensed, reflecting the sunlight in the early winter and giving people a cold and deadly beauty. The warriors in different martial arts costumes and many rogue cultivators assembling temporarily were seizing the time to take a rest and conduct reorganization.

There was a faint cry.

Someone was crying aloud, holding a body.

The cry was hoarse and dry, like an injured beast’s.

Many rogue cultivators and small sects had been forcibly recruited by various powerful forces and they had been treated as cannon fodder in such a battle. In the previous battle, people from some small sects had been killed and the sects had been exterminated.

Perhaps they had been unwilling to face such a battle, and they had been even more unwilling to become enemies with a sect like the Swordsmanship-seeking Sect.

Unfortunately, in this cruel and cold world, the weak could never have the right to control its own destiny.

Four or five days before, when everything was still at the embryo stage, one or two small sects had rejected the recruitment of the Tranquility Academy in a euphemistic way. However, that night, the two sects were ablaze with fire and the killing sound was like thunder. The next day, when the sun shone on the earth, those sects had disappeared from the world forever, leaving nothing but ashes.

In addition to the masters of various graded forces with great interest, many of the martial artists who had been temporarily recruited had to seize the time to take a rest and carry out reorganization and prepare for the next battle.

The Swordsmanship-seeking Sect’s seven passes were heavily guarded. The disciples in such a big sect—even the ordinary inner disciples were strong enough to frighten rogue cultivators. They really didn’t know how many of them would survive until they conquered the remaining six passes. They didn’t know whether they could get the various rewards promised by the Tranquility Academy, the Falling Star Sect, and the other sects.

At the same time, in the Swordsmanship-seeking Sect, it was also busy.

The injured disciples were treated as soon as possible by the disciples of the “Magical Herb Pharmacy”, and their treatment was much better than that of the invaders at the foot of the mountain.

When the sect’s machines were launched, the management was in an orderly manner.

The rocky cliff in the garbage area at the back of the mountain had been divided into a forbidden area. The poor people used to live there and they had been settled in another area. Someone from the Swordsmanship-seeking Sect began to exploit the crystal mine there.

At the crucial moment, such a big sect was consuming a huge amount of energy every minute.

The operation of various formations alone was enough to make many sects go bankrupt in a short period.

If it were in the past, with the accumulation of the Swordsmanship-seeking Sect for thousands of years, it could only last for more than a dozen days. But at the moment, the mysterious crystal mine could be exploited without limit, and it was enough to activate all kinds of inscription formations with full effort. For the Swordsmanship-seeking Sect, that was good news.

The sun shone the white earth with a layer of dazzling red.

Standing on the cliff of the “Sword-light Rock” in the third-ladder area, looking down, one could see everything of the south mountains and seven passes of the Swordsmanship-seeking Mountain Range. Through layers of thin clouds and fog, one could see the formation’s flickering flame and the “Sword Gate” in the distance that was occupied by the invaders.

The black dots, like ants, were moving for arranging something.

They were the invaders.

On the cliff of the “Sword-light Rock”, high-level officials of the Swordsmanship-seeking Sect appeared.

Since the battle began, in order to command, the Sect Chief Li Jianyi and other high-level officials had set up temporary tents in the third ladder area. Standing in this rock and looking down, they could see everything.

“Although the ‘Sword Gate’ is the outermost defense mountain pass, it also has a total of 20 or 30 types of inscription formations, but it only lasted for half a night. In this way, the seven mountain passes below can only last for half a month at most. The situation is not optimistic!”

Li Jianyi looked down with worry in his eyes.

“The people of the Tranquility Academy are really too despicable. Before the Demon Clan starts an attack, they can’t wait to attack us. Last night, the people who were driven here were from some small sects and individual cultivators. They regarded those people as cannon fodder. It’s a pity that the good men of the Swordsmanship-seeking Sect can’t fight against the Demon Clan, but they will die in this worthless battle.”

Tang Folei said hatefully.

The other six peaks and six bases.

Qi Qingshan did not show up in the crowd.

After Ding Hao and others entered the “Sage Battlefield”, the old monster had been guarding the Sword-hidden Peak for most of the time. Especially after the recent outbreak of such a war, it seemed that he was even more mysterious. He had seemed to be seizing the time to perceive some kind of cultivation method. Just now he saved Wang Juefeng, but he just showed his face for a little while.

“If we hold on like this, can we really defeat the joint forces of those superpowers?” Li Jianyi asked softly.

It was as if he was asking himself, or someone else.

All the people present were the elders of the Swordsmanship-seeking Sect, and they dominated the whole sect’s destiny. When they heard the chief’s words, they also looked worried. Indeed, in the face of such a powerful force, even if the Swordsmanship-seeking Sect was the most powerful sect in the Snow Province at that time, it could not help but be anxious. According to the battle the night before, if they really fought to the death, they would definitely end up with the extermination of the whole sect.

“Why are you not confident?” Tang Folei said loudly, “I’ve sent someone to the Mirror Lake to report what has happened here to the ‘Black Frost Palace’. As long as we hold on for a few days, nobody dares to be arrogant when the inspector of the ‘Holy Palace of Mysterious Frost’ arrives. We will be rewarded by the palace when we offer the Mysterious Crystal Mine. At that time, with the Black Frost Palace’s support, we will force all the sects involved in the killing the day pay the price for their misconduct!”

As soon as he said that, everyone’s eyes suddenly lit up.

Li Jianyi shook his head slightly and said, “If we can think of this, how can Fang Xiaoan not? They must have made countermeasures. Mu Tianyang has become the palace’s Mysterious Frost Holy Guard and it was very strange. I am afraid that everything is not as simple as we think.”

“If the Tranquility Academy sends masters to kill us along the way, or make arrangements in the Mirror Lake by making a little arrangement and delaying for a few days, when the ‘Holy Palace of Mysterious Frost’ knows about the battle, everything will be too late,” the “Jade Master” said.

“Yes, that’s exactly what I’m worried about.” Li Jianyi nodded. “We can’t put all our hopes in the ‘Holy Palace of Mysterious Frost’. We must make other preparations.”

Somehow, at that moment, Li Jianyi suddenly thought of Ding Hao.
