Breakthrough Again! Spirit God Seventh Layer

All the invaders were rapidly retreating, seizing the chance to charge towards the high heavens, attempting to escape this realm and return to the Outer Realm.

But how could Lu Chen let them leave so easily?

His body flashed, transforming into sword light, and he swiftly pursued them.

Whoosh!

Golden sword qi rained down like a deluge, engulfing everyone.

Myriad Swords Return to Origin!

"Attack together!"

"If we don't use our trump cards now, we'll all die here!"

"Fight him to the death!"

The numerous invaders were all roaring, each one acting as if their life depended on it.

Under Lu Chen's terrifying sword light, everyone truly felt the aura of death.

Boom!

All sorts of lights erupted from them once more. Besides countless killing arts, there were also various weapons. As the lights flashed, they were a dazzling spectacle.

There was a red banner that, with a fierce sweep, unleashed countless mountains of corpses and seas of blood.

There were golden ropes, like ancient dragons, that soared across the sky, coiling towards Lu Chen.

And there was a cyan fan, which, when fanned forcefully, sent countless gales howling...

There was also a red treasure gourd, which directly spewed out countless flames from within.

These were all forbidden artifacts they had painstakingly refined in the Outer Realm!

They were beyond the scope of ordinary weapons.

They could unleash heaven-defying power in a short time and change the tide of battle.

Bang!

The countless sword qi that Lu Chen had unleashed were all shattered by these terrifying weapons.

But Lu Chen's eyes turned cold, and the sword technique in his hand suddenly changed again.

This time it was hazy and indistinct, elusive and unpredictable, containing astonishing killing intent as he slashed fiercely towards the high heavens.

He was using his Sword Heart to evolve the third stance of the Sword Draw Slay Heavens Art.

See Mountain, Still Mountain.

This stance, theoretically, could shatter everything!

With his current strength at Spirit God Fifth Layer, combined with Tenfold Combat Power, he could truly unleash the full potential of this ultimate technique.

Whoosh!

With a single sword strike, the entire world seemed to come to a standstill.

The entire space-time appeared to be severed.

Eerie, demonic golden light swiftly cut through these countless forbidden artifacts, like lightning.

Crack!

A rumbling sound echoed between heaven and earth. The weapons began to crack one after another, like fragile watermelons. With a boom, they split in the middle, scattering in all directions, turning into vast swathes of debris.

Large amounts of debris rained down, making a swishing sound like a torrential downpour.

"What?"

Those suspended in mid-air were now completely panicked.

What kind of ancient monster was this?

He actually shattered all their forbidden artifacts with a single sword strike!

How was this even possible?

They had previously thought of relying on their numerical advantage to kill Lu Chen!

How could such a huge disparity be overcome?

The massive black shadow whose body had been severed by Lu Chen earlier had already healed itself. Utterly terrified, it was the first to react, fleeing towards the Outer Realm without regard for anything else.

The remaining people became even more desperate.

"Escape!"

"Who are you, senior, and why are you pretending to be weak and devouring tigers!"

"I am from Ziyang Academy on Tianheng Star..."

"I come from the Cold Mountain Sacred Land..."

"Senior, please stop! We can talk this out!"

"My master is True Lord Xuanyang..."

As they fled, these people announced their affiliations, their voices deafening.

They hoped their family influence would deter Lu Chen and make him stop attacking them.

But unfortunately, it was all useless.

After Lu Chen's sword blast shattered all the weapons the group had launched, he followed up with another strike. Peerless golden-yellow sword qi, like lightning, surged towards the sky again.

In an instant, it seemed to cover everyone.

The fleeing crowd felt their bodies tremble, as if they had become living targets!

"No!"

"Heavenly Gang Yuan Qi, protect me, quickly protect me!"

"Primordial Divine Pearl!"

Bang bang bang bang...

Screams echoed throughout the air as figures rapidly exploded, dying tragically. Even those who didn't die instantly were shattered, their souls damaged.

Those who survived were terrified beyond measure. They no longer dared to flee towards the Outer Realm, instead turning and escaping in other directions of the Divine Mountain with their wounded bodies.

From a distance.

The first wave of survivors, who were currently entangled with Chu Yunxiao and his companions, all noticed the dazzling light in the sky and the vast swathes of sword qi.

"It's over, our sects, our friends, they've indeed met their doom!"

"How could this happen? They were all stopped!"

"Not a single one made it back, it's all over!"

"Demon King, this is a Super Demon King!"

"Who can save us!"

These first-wave survivors wailed in agony.

It wasn't that they didn't want to flee the Outer Realm from their current location, but that on the Divine Mountain, there was only a passage near the Divine Palace. There were no passages in other directions.

If they wanted to leave, they had to use that passage.

But now, Lu Chen was blocking the passage, forcing everyone to stay, making escape impossible.

They were trapped on the Divine Mountain.

Want to escape the Divine Mountain and reach other parts of the Sword World?

That would be even more suicidal!

Once they left the Divine Mountain, it would mean they would be suppressed by the world, only able to retain power close to that of a Demigod.

At that point, Lu Chen would be able to eliminate them even more easily.

[...Merit Points +]

[...+]

[+]

Lines of text continuously appeared.

Large streams of energy turbulence swept through the air, vast and mighty.

Lu Chen's gaze was indifferent. Hovering in mid-air, his clothes and hair fluttering, he scanned his surroundings, confirming that no one had escaped from this area. Then, he lowered his head and swept his gaze towards other directions.

He saw that the lucky survivors were now, just like the first group, scrambling and fleeing in extreme terror towards other directions of the Divine Mountain.

"Trying to run?"

Lu Chen smiled.

As long as they were still on the Divine Mountain, they were destined to be his!

No one could escape!

However, he soon discovered that these people's Merit Points varied.

From sixty thousand down to ten thousand, the amounts differed.

His gaze swept over the panel before him again, the light flickering.

Merit Points: 7.51 million.

"Done, I can break through again!"

With just these two encounters, he had gained such a massive amount of Merit Points.

It was truly unimaginable.

"However, my actions this time will undoubtedly completely offend those powers and families in the Outer Realm..."

The reason he didn't let anyone leave was to seal off the news and prevent people from the Outer Realm from finding out.

But secrets don't stay hidden forever!

Those people from the Outer Realm going in and never coming out would eventually arouse suspicion.

Once the attention of those super-powerful beings was drawn, he would be in immense trouble.

However, he wasn't completely unprepared.

First, he could grow stronger with every kill, climbing towards the peak.

Second, he could place his hopes on Hell's Second Layer.

Hell's Second Layer imprisoned gods, though he didn't know what their realms were.

And after being imprisoned for so long, he wondered if their strength had degenerated.

He felt it would be best to make another trip to Hell's Second Layer when he had the time.

By offering some more Yin Virtue Coins, he could have the Gatekeeper arrange some stronger characters for him, just in case any super ancient beings from the Outer Realm descended.

"And that figure deep within the Dragon Vein... who is that? I wonder if the Gatekeeper knows? To be sleeping hidden within the Dragon Vein..."

Lu Chen muttered to himself.

But he didn't need to think; it was definitely a super expert.

Perhaps even a legendary figure from history.

Lu Chen glanced at the Divine Palace, then at the others who had been scared away and fled. With a wave of his hand, the hundreds of experts who had just died reappeared.

"Guard the passage. No entry, no exit!"

Lu Chen said calmly.

"Yes, my lord!"

They replied respectfully.

Lu Chen looked at his panel again and silently chanted.

"Merit Points, add to cultivation!"

[Ding! You have consumed 2.5 million Merit Points and advanced further in the Spirit God Fifth Layer realm. Your cultivation climbed all the way, and without much effort, you reached the Spirit God Sixth Heaven!]

[Ding! You have consumed 3.5 million Merit Points and continued to advance in the Spirit God Sixth Layer realm. After encountering a slight bottleneck, these bottlenecks seemed to mean nothing. Through your diligent cultivation, you have finally reached the Spirit God Seventh Layer!]

[The next upgrade requires 4.5 million Merit Points!]

Boom!

A powerful, terrifying aura surged within his body. Divine power surged and intertwined, bringing his control over strength and himself to a new level.

"Remaining Merit Points: 1.51 million..."

Lu Chen muttered.

He felt his own strength, his body flashed, and he quickly disappeared from the area.

Not long after, he left the direction of the Divine Mountain. As soon as he did, he felt the pressure from the Netherworld again, as if countless chains and runes were rushing into his body.

Even with his current strength, it was difficult to resist.

If he resisted forcefully, his soul would shatter, and he would die on the spot.

He was shocked and immediately restrained his cultivation, suppressing it tightly.

"This Sword World Seal is as strong as ever."

Lu Chen looked up in other directions.

He wondered if the Divine Mountains in the other realms had been unsealed yet!

But he was like a clever cook unable to cook without ingredients; he could only manage this one for now.

He truly had no time to attend to the opportunities in other directions.

Lu Chen unfurled his movement technique and disappeared again.

At this very moment.

The entire Outer Realm was filled with suspicion.

The souls guarding above the Sword World now frowned, all gazing intently downwards.

Unfortunately, the divine light from the Divine Mountain was dazzling, obscuring their vision, making it impossible to see what was happening below.

Even the communication tokens in their hands seemed to have malfunctioned.

All the messages they sent received no response whatsoever.

"What's going on? My lord went down so long ago, why hasn't he returned?"

"Mine too. Could they have started fighting?"

"We already discussed the territorial boundaries beforehand, they wouldn't suddenly start fighting, would they?"

"Who can say for sure? Let's hope everything goes smoothly."

"What do you think happened to that Lu Chen? What's his current fate?"

"What other fate could there be? He was surely killed by our Lord long ago!"

"That's true. A bastard who, by sheer luck, stumbled upon an opportunity, yet didn't know how to lie low. He even dared to provoke us. He was just asking for death!"

"It's best not to let him die too easily, otherwise, it won't be any fun!"

Many people chuckled lightly.

They chatted and laughed, waiting here.

It was as if Lu Chen's fate had already been sealed.

In a distant area, figures were still continuing to fly in.

Rumble!

Suddenly, a ferocious aura erupted from afar, surging and powerful, like a black tide crashing forward. The dense, malevolent aura struck towards them first...

Everyone's expression changed slightly, and they turned to look.

"That's..."

"It's those ferocious people! They actually came!"

"No, it's them!"

"The Starry Sky Knights... it's those demons!"

Everyone subconsciously retreated.

The sound of galloping hooves grew louder as they approached.

A group of ferocious and enormous beasts appeared.

Seated atop each one was a massive figure clad in armor, with cold expressions and holding various weapons. There were eighteen of them in total.

Each one exuded a heavy aura, surrounded by countless souls.

Some even had numerous human heads hanging from their belts.

These heads were still alive, freshly severed not long ago. Each head was filled with terror, their lips wriggling as if trying to speak, but no sound came out.

"Heh heh, the Divine Mountain is unsealed!"

One of the knights, riding a Brute Ox and with a massive black axe strapped to his back, said with a chilling smile, "I still remember when we retreated, we went on a killing spree here, taking down many younglings. Blink, and countless years have passed!"

"Heh heh, those younglings had tough bones back then, but alas, they refused to come with us, so they could only die!"

Another knight laughed.

"It's somewhat beyond expectation that a declining world could revive,"

A third knight said calmly, "Let's go down and take a look. We were in a hurry when we left and were blasted away by some force. Now, after so many years, that force should have completely dissipated!"

The other knights burst into laughter.
