The crowd stared in horror at the bloody scene, gasping in shock.

"That's Tang Sheng!"

Shen Wuyou couldn't help but cry out in disbelief.

This scene is utterly unbelievable and horrifying.

Tang Sheng, a genius of his generation, broke through the six Order Double Break Six, how powerful he was.

But he was killed, leaving only a head oozing Red slurry.

At that moment, everyone seemed to have their souls drained away, their eyes wide with astonishment, completely dumbfounded.

Is that Tang Sheng?

"Could it be that I've made a mistake in my understanding of the Dharma, causing my mind and body to become disordered, and my vision to blur?"

"It's like a dream; who could have beaten Tang Sheng into such a miserable state?"

"Stop questioning it, that's Tang Sheng, just now..."

Some people faced reality with a deep sense of fear, while others seemed to have a sudden realization.

So the sound of pigs being slaughtered just now was made by Tang Sheng.

"Could it be that Wang Ping of Qingling has personally appeared and acted as the gatekeeper?"

Many people swallowed hard, feeling their mouths dry.

Only Daozhen or Wang Ping could display such a transcendent state during the divine travel stage.

Daozhen Fairy would never humiliate her fellow disciples like that. The only remaining possibility is Wang Ping from the Qingling Palace, otherwise Fang Xin and the others wouldn't have been let off the hook.

"No, I've received top-secret information. Wang Ping is preparing for battle, ready to make a final leap to break through to the True Saint Realm."

"But if it weren't for Wang Ping, who else in the Qingling Palace would have this strength?"

Everyone was completely baffled. Could it be that Qingling was hiding some kind of monster?

"Who cares who he is? The key issue now is that even Tang Sheng can't get past this sixth level, so who among us can pass it?"

The genius of the Five Thunder Hall looked grim.

Originally, Zhang Daowei and his group took the best treasures, so they could only get a sip of soup.

But now they've encountered Sword Six blocking their way, and this man is deliberately going easy on the people from the Qingling Palace.

This means that the rest of them may very well be stopped at this stage, even less capable than Fang Xin.

Tang Sheng serves as a cautionary tale; despite his formidable strength, he was limited to the Sword Six Realm.

The argument was in astonishment at the foot of the mountain.

Sword Six Sword Fighting Arena.

Jiang Ping suddenly felt dizzy and as if he were floating in the air.

At the same time, an unfamiliar male voice rang in his ear:

"Your skill level is far beyond what is required; you are no longer suitable for the Sword Six position."

Jiang Ping was stunned. He wasn't shocked by the change of location, but by the voice.

Zhang Daowei?!

He found it incredible.

"Is there even a question? It seems that the artifact has already chosen its master, taking itself as the reward for being the first to climb the mountain."

The Turtle Shell floated lightly as it spoke.

"That's Dao-Carrying Artifact!"

Jiang Ping clicked his tongue in amazement. If he could obtain this item, who in the world could stop him?

"Don't be too surprised, kid. Even if that Supreme Treasure is a legendary Dao-Carrying Artifact, it's definitely incomplete and Flawed."

"Not to mention."

The Turtle Shell lay on Jiang Ping's hair and said, "Our Supreme Treasure are meant to accompany you geniuses as you grow. They are not something you can do whatever you want just because you possess them. We generally will not interfere in competitions with our Peers."

"Otherwise, how could that Broken Axe have allowed you to humiliate Tang Sheng like that?"

"At least, it provides an extra layer of protection."

Jiang Ping sighed, thinking that Zhang Daowei was probably the one who reaped the most benefits from this trip to the Moon Star; he could truly be called the chosen one.

"Stop being envious. Now you should think about how to exchange your reward for something other than Master Turtle's part."

"No rush, no rush."

Jiang Ping sat idly on the ground, a new jade pendant hanging from his waist, engraved with: Sword Twelve.

Xiao Ran and his senior brother in plain clothes both stopped at this level. Now he has become the Mountain Guardian of this level, and the original Sword Twelve has become Sword Eleven.

"I had hoped to test my skills against the four Dao system, but it seems I'll miss that chance."

"Who told you to hit Tang Sheng so hard you couldn't stop?"

"That means the God Sect's artifacts are used to rank Sword Disciple according to their cultivation level; otherwise, you wouldn't have even met Tang Sheng."

"On another note."

Jiang Ping suddenly frowned and pleaded, "Senior, could you please help me conceal my Qi Mechanism?"

Since he arrived on this Moon Star, whenever he encounters a sentient Supreme Artifact, it can instantly see through his true nature.

It's really unpleasant to be seen naked like that.

"Are you trying to play dumb and trick someone?"

"How is that possible?"

Turtle Shell didn't dwell on this with Jiang Pingping, and went straight to the point:

"After Master Turtle joined you, I helped cover for you, but the God Sect's Supreme Treasure is probably Dao-Carrying Artifact, Master Turtle can't defend against that kind of existence."

"That's enough."

Jiang Ping nodded. There were too few Dao-Carrying Artifact; once he returned to Xuanhuang, it would be very difficult to encounter them again.

"By the way, senior, do you know the origin of my Sword of Time?"

He changed the subject, thinking of Broken Sword, who had been playing jungle and hadn't returned.

The Turtle Shell seemed to be deep in thought, and after a long while it finally spoke:

"Hmm, it looks familiar. I think I've seen some people use it before."

"Yes, there's a hint of that person in it."

The Turtle Shell suddenly remembered, and its face showed surprise:

"Are you perhaps a descendant of that person?"

As time passed, the trials of Divine Mountain were drawing to a close.

Although the prodigies were wary of Sword Six, they still gritted their teeth and climbed the mountain, only to realize later that...

"Haha, that Sword Six was way too overpowered, it must have been optimized. We can climb the mountain normally now."

As one after another, these prodigies who had broken through six levels made it into the eighth and ninth levels, everyone finally realized what was happening.

Soon after, the group of prodigies climbed the mountain and attempted to pass the challenges, but due to the influence of the original Sword Six, their highest record was only passing ten challenges.

"Damn it, I was still let down by the former Sword Six. I'm stronger than Xiao Ran, but my mountaineering record is worse than his."

A prodigy Double Break Six lamented, filled with regret.

With this person being moved to the heavens, the mountaineering test came to a complete end.

The night sky was filled with twinkling stars.

At the Mountain peak, a brightly lit palace was filled with fine wine and delicacies, where a group of extraordinary talents were gathered, drinking and exchanging ideas.

"What? The Sword Six who beat Tang Sheng until his head was bleeding was Jiang Pingping?"

Upon hearing this news, the Five Thunder Hall was stunned into silence.

After Tang Sheng, many people haven't encountered the previous Sword Six, and the "culprit" remains unclear.

Upon learning the truth, many prodigies were utterly astonished.

"That bastard, that guy dared to let us off the hook, where is he?"

One hot-tempered man, unable to contain his anger, immediately wanted to confront Jiang Pingping and demand an explanation.

However, his fellow disciples advised him one after another, "Be careful with your words and actions. That person has only been with Qingling for a few years and already has this kind of strength. You are no match for him."

"We are united in our hatred of the enemy; why should we fear just one person?"

This person was particularly resentful, as his ranking affected him and he would definitely receive far less benefit.

"Be careful. This is the Moon Star. After the Divine Mountain, we will Part ways and face Life and Death trials. I just received news that the Hengdao Sect's Shi Zhou has perished. According to the Hengdao Venerable's investigation, it seems to be man-made."

"If Jiang Pingping sets her sights on you, your fate will be uncertain. Look, she's a prime example of what not to do."

The group looked toward Tang Sheng, who was sitting silently not far away.

They already knew about the feud between Tang Sheng and Jiang Pingping. Tang Sheng used to be so full of vigor, but now his dignity has been completely destroyed.
