Ten Directions Hall

How did this Purple Lightning Sword go astray?!

After hearing this, Chen Mobai had only this thought in his mind.

He instinctively felt that he couldn't be indulged; if they dared to add Spirit Stone now, what would happen in the future!

But now that the die is cast, he still needs the full cooperation of the Purple Lightning Sword to contend with Xuan Shu, who Core Formation Late Stage. Therefore, Chen Mobai could only agree for the time being.

Chen Mobai: [How many Spirit Stone did you take from him? Tell me the number.]

Purple Lightning Sword: [This... probably can't kill him.]

The Purple Lightning Sword, which had been full of vigor and ready to add Spirit Stone, suddenly became somewhat deflated.

Chen Mobai: [Can't kill him?! Then why do you dare add Spirit Stone?!]

Purple Lightning Sword: [Well... how about... we don't add it for now?]

The simple-minded Purple Lightning Sword thought about it and felt Possessing the Dao. After all, it had only asked for half a piece when it killed the enemy before, and it wasn't even confident of killing the enemy now. Asking for more would be a bit embarrassing.

Chen Mobai: [However, your opponent's cultivation level is a bit higher. If you can injure him, I'll reward you with half a yuan more, to make it a round number.]

Upon hearing these words, the Purple Lightning Sword, whose morale had been somewhat dampened, instantly regained its fighting spirit.

Amidst the thunderous roar, a purple current flickered in the void, winding and coiling like Dragon Snake, before flowing into the long-handled sword in Chen Mobai's palm.

Chen Mobai felt that thirty percent of the vast Pure Yang Spiritual Power in his dantian was drawn away in an instant, and his Golden Core dimmed considerably.

However, he felt that the power gathered by the Fourth Tier Sword Artifact in his palm was even more terrifying and sharper than the previous sword strike.

With a hissing sound, Chen Mobai raised his sword! A streak of purple light burst forth from the tip of the sword, like a purple rainbow tearing through the sky and reaching straight to the heavens.

The clouds swirled around it, and the Heaven and Earth Spiritual Energy above Giant Wood Ridge was stirred by this sword, generating wisps of purple lightning in the void, which flickered and disappeared into the sword and Chen Mobai's body holding it.

A sharp pain, like acupuncture, spread from the palm holding the sword throughout Chen Mobai hadn't cultivated the Longevity Dao Body, he probably would have been injured in that instant.

Before he could even ask about the Purple Lightning Sword, a dazzling golden meteor flashed out from Xuan Shu's right hand.

The "Sun Shooting Divine Halberd Technique" of the Xuanxiao Dao Palace, renowned for its power, was far greater in his hands than that of Nan Xuanjing.

With a flick of his left sleeve, Chen Mobai sent out an Bronze Mirror flying.

After the Pure Yang Spiritual Power was injected, the Six Yang Divine Fire Mirror instantly transformed into a semi-circular light shield, blocking Chen Mobai's path.

With a deafening boom, the golden meteor crashed straight into the Mystic Yang Divine Light Shield, unleashing a dazzling, blinding golden-red shockwave that rippled through the air like waves.

Chen Mobai felt the Pure Yang Spiritual Power in his dantian being frantically absorbed by the Six Yang Divine Fire Mirror, and couldn't help but frown slightly.

It took four times more energy than when facing Nan Xuanjing! In just two short exchanges with Xuan Shu, Chen Mobai had already used up more than half of his spiritual power.

This can't go on any longer. Let's finish this with one last strike to save face!

Upon realizing this, Chen Mobai, who had originally intended to strike with the three swords, suddenly brightened up and reached out to release the Purple Lightning Sword.

[Owner...]

The Purple Lightning Sword felt the gripping sensation disappear, and was filled with doubt, thinking that Chen Mobai was unable to withstand the Purple Lightning's power increasing by another ten percent.

Just as the Purple Lightning Sword was considering whether to disperse one-third of the condensed Purple Sword Light, a semi-transparent skeletal hand reached out from the void to Chen Mobai's right.

Five-Colored Radiance flowed from the skeletal fingertips, carrying a cyclical, flawless quality, as it gripped the long-handled sword suspended in mid-air! [I want to test the maximum power I can currently control you, to continue refining the Heaven and Earth Spiritual Energy into Purple Lightning. Don't stop until I tell you to!]

Chen Mobai's thoughts were transmitted to the Purple Lightning Sword, which did not hesitate. It had been a long time since it had unleashed its full power.

Although I can't show my full potential yet, I'm still happy to improve as much as possible.

And so, the Purple Lightning Sword began to run wild!

Rumble! What was originally just a thick Dragon Snake Purple Lightning bolt in the void suddenly surged into another one! The purple lightning was drawn in by the sword tip and extended along the sword body to the translucent Five Elements Sword Arm of the Myriad Laws Body. Although Chen Mobai's body no longer had to endure the pain of the Purple Lightning, his Spiritual Sense still had to bear the heavy pressure of controlling this power.

Soon, just as two half- Dragon Snake Purple Lightning appeared in the void, he felt that his Spiritual Sense at the Golden Core Second Layer had reached its limit, and he immediately called for a halt.

At this moment, the clash between the Six Yang Divine Fire Mirror and the Sun Shooting Divine Halberd Technique reached its peak! Amidst the deafening roar, the Golden Halberd's spiritual power was exhausted, and it fell sadly from mid-air.

The Six Yang Divine Fire Mirror trembled and flew back into Chen Mobai's sleeve. The defensive spell of this Magic Artifact, Mystic Yang Divine Light, showed signs of damage.

This shows how powerful Xuan Shu's spell is! However, after Chen Mobai blocked one of the Sun Shooting Divine Halberd Technique, Xuan Shu, who was standing on the Jade Bridge opposite him, took out two more Golden Halberd from his storage bag. With golden light flashing in his palm, two more comet-like golden streams shot out from his palm.

But at the same time, a dark purple, Heavenly Sword aura burst forth from the semi-transparent, five-colored arm beside Chen Mobai. The sword aura, like a wheel, instantly slashed towards Xuan Shu's location, centered on the Purple Lightning Sword, as if cutting grass.

The two golden meteors formed by the Sun Shooting Divine Halberd Technique encountered the dark purple sword light halfway through their journey. They were only blocked for two breaths before being crushed into a sky full of Gold Powder.

Upon seeing this, Xuan Shu's eyes widened, and he spat out the Golden Jade Pearl that he had previously retrieved.

A surge of powerful spiritual energy erupted, transforming into a golden whirlwind that enveloped Xuan Shu like a whirlwind.

The dark purple, wheel-like sword flashed past, and the golden raging storm burst forth with dazzling brilliance, instantly surpassing the Third Grade tier.

"Fourth Tier Defensive Artifact!?"

It was only then that Chen Mobai realized why this former Holy Son of the Xuanxiao Dao Palace dared to come knocking on his door after he had easily killed Nan Xuanjing with the Purple Lightning Sword.

So he also has a Fourth Grade Magic Artifact to rely on! The Purple Lightning and golden mist collided in the sky, each occupying half of the sky above Giant Wood Ridge. The Dang Dang Heaven and Earth Spiritual Energy fluctuations caused the more than one hundred Foundation Establishment Cultivator from Divine Wood City who came to celebrate Chen Mobai's Core Formation to tremble involuntarily.

Foundation Establishment Cultivator can already begin to control the Heaven and Earth Spiritual Energy to cast spells.

Compared to the ignorant Qi Cultivation Cultivator who only felt that it was dazzling and splendid, they could feel the terrifying power of the two people fighting in the sky.

If the two Magic Artifact colliding in mid-air were to fall here, at least half of the Foundation Establishment Cultivator present would probably die.

Is this the strongest power of Core Formation Cultivator in the Eastern Wasteland?! While some Foundation Establishment from various families were still in awe of Chen Mobai and Xuan Shu, Kong Shanxu of the Five Elements Sect and Ye Bogui of the Returning Heaven Valley had solemn expressions.

They were all direct descendants of their sects who had reached the Core Formation, and had personally witnessed their masters' actions.

But in their perception, either of the two people fighting in the sky seemed to be a little stronger than their master.

They could understand Xuan Shu was so powerful.

After all, this person was a peerless genius who dominated the Eastern Yi a hundred years ago and was hailed as having the potential to Nascent Formation Soul.

But even if this Old Ancestor Chen of the Divine Wood Sect is a peerless sword genius like Xuan Shu, he has only just Core Formation. How could he fight so fiercely with Xuan Shu, who is in the Core Formation Late Stage? Could it be that Old Ancestor Chen's talent is even more heaven-defying than Xuan Shu's? Upon realizing this, Kong Shanxu and Ye Bogui both became somewhat uneasy.

Zhou Shengqing of the Divine Wood Sect Nascent Formation had already made the two sects feel like they had a thorn in their side when he was in the Nascent Soul stage. Now, this newly Core Formation cultivator has such terrifying talent. Doesn't that mean that as long as he is given time, they will have no room to resist? Just as the two were thinking about how to suppress the development of the Divine Wood Sect, the collision of two Fourth Tier Magic Tool in mid-air finally determined the winner.

The Myriad Laws Body that appeared beside Chen Mobai began to disappear inch by inch like wisps of green smoke, and the Purple Lightning Sword hummed as it landed in front of him.

On the other side, Xuan Shu's face was slightly pale as he opened his mouth and swallowed the Golden Jade Pearl back into his stomach.

[Master, I sense that the opponent isn't truly in sync with the Magic Artifact; its operation is fraught with difficulties, and I estimate it consumed the spiritual energy of his Golden Core essence to unleash its Fourth Grade power. If we Human Sword Unity, and deliver another strike like before, we might be able to kill him.]

The Purple Lightning Sword's excitement reached Chen Mobai's heart, but upon sensing the almost empty Pure Yang Spiritual Power in his dantian, Chen Mobai could only shake his head.

If he were to make another move, he would have to activate the primordial spiritual power of his Golden Core, and every bit of that power he used would be gone.

There is no need to damage one's foundation for the sake of this Xuan Shu.

"What is the origin of your sword?"

At this moment, Xuan Shu took a pill in front of Chen Mobai. In an instant, his pale face became rosy, and he looked up at the Purple Lightning Sword with a sharp gaze.

"And what is the origin of that bead of yours?"

Chen Mobai smiled and asked a question in return. The last bit of spiritual power reserved in his dantian began to circulate, preparing to activate the Flame Light Escape to fall into the Myriad Wood Great Formation below at any time.

"A hundred years ago, a relic appeared in the Eastern Yi Panghuang Mountain. It was left by the Sea Turning Gate, one of the Ten Directions Hall. I entered it and obtained this Golden Tempest Pearl."

Xuan Shu actually revealed the origin of his Fourth Grade Treasure Pearl, which surprised Chen Mobai slightly.

Having lived in the Divine Wood Sect for so many years, although he wasn't very clear about the rise and fall of the small forces in various places, he had read through all the legends and epics about Holy Land, Nascent Soul cultivators, and even ascended great powers in the Sky River Realm.

The name of this Ten Directions Hall is derived from this.

It was a sect that suppressed the ten directions of heaven and earth during the peak of the Eastern Earth Imperial Court. The ten palaces were united as one, and even those Holy Land and major sects with Nascent Soul cultivators in charge had to give way.

After the Eastern Earth Imperial Court disintegrated, some of the Ten Directions Hall perished, some left the Eastern Lands to continue their lineage, and some, relying on their overwhelming strength, survived the great calamity and even became one of the Holy Land.

Could it be that Xuan Shu, possessing the treasures of the Ten Directions Hall, has also received the inheritance of the Sea Turning Gate?

The Sea Turning Gate is said to have cultivated the art of overturning rivers and seas. At its peak, it was able to suppress even the Dragon King of the waters and Sea Domain Eastern Lands Realm by Eastern Earth Imperial Court decree, preventing them from setting foot on land.

"I've finished speaking, what about yours?"

Xuan Shu spoke again. After taking the pill, his pale and weak aura from using the Golden Tempest Pearl had completely disappeared. He seemed to have recovered all his spiritual power, and his eyes were fixed on the Purple Lightning Sword in Chen Mobai's hand.

It seems we need to bring that out.

Chen Mobai had long ago thought about how to explain the various Artifact Spirit objects he brought from the Immortal Sect in the Sky River Realm.

That was done in the name of the Longevity Sect.

Zhou Shengqing and Fu Zongjue were already convinced of this, firmly believing that Chen Mobai had obtained the true inheritance of this ancient sect and was the living successor of the Azure Emperor of the Longevity Sect.

Chen Mobai raised the Purple Lightning Sword in his hand and easily released it.

The Golden Core Domain was activated, and the void opened up as if a gap had been opened, slowly swallowing the Fourth Tier Sword Artifact until it completely disappeared into the air.

Upon witnessing this, Xuan Shu's eyes narrowed sharply. With his Cultivation Realm, how could he not see how the sword had vanished? "I am the Longevity Sect Holy Son!"

At this moment, Chen Mobai decisively revealed his "true" identity! Upon hearing this, Xuan Shu was first shocked, then a look of realization flashed across his face, and he looked solemnly at the handsome young man who had just Core Formation.

The Longevity Sect is an even older force than the Eastern Earth Imperial Court, and it is said to worship a Longevity Celestial Venerable.

Unfortunately, one day, due to some taboo, all the upper-level cultivators of the Longevity Sect disappeared overnight.

However, the ruins of the Longevity Sect are scattered throughout the Six Domains of the Eastern Lands. The True Monarch Yi Yuan was able to ascend to immortality because he mastered the Longevity Technique, which greatly increased his lifespan and allowed him to rejuvenate.

If this person has received the inheritance of the Longevity Sect, then everything makes sense.

For this powerful force that once worshipped the Longevity Celestial Venerable, Fourth Tier Sword Artifact was nothing special.

So, the reason I couldn't defeat him wasn't because my opponent was outstanding, but because the swords of the Longevity Sect were powerful.

With this thought, Xuan Shu, feeling more at peace, took one last deep look at Chen Mobai, then turned and rode the Jade Bridge away into the horizon without saying anything more.

"Is this guy just here to avenge Nan Xuanjing? Or was he sent by the Xuanxiao Dao Palace to be stationed in the Eastern Wasteland?"

Chen Mobai watched Xuan Shu's departing figure, pondering this thought.

At that moment, a golden light shone at the Teleportation Array array in Giant Wood Ridge, and Mo Douguang appeared. Soon, he and Fu Zongjue flew to Chen Mobai's side.

"Junior Brother Chen, shall we pursue and kill them?"

Mo Douguang asked a question.

"I have exhausted my spiritual power and am unable to fight. Senior Brother Mo has just broken through and it is more important for him to consolidate his realm. Let's let him go today."
