This wasn't Yang Zhen's first time Holy War. Yang Zhen now possessed the Body-Protecting Saint Gang of the Saint Realm expert, making him no match for the Elder's single sword strike.
Seeing the Grand Elder rushing over, Yang Zhen glanced at the Three Lives Flower in mid-air, a strange smile appearing on his face. He pointed his long sword to the sky and made a move that completely baffled the Grand Elder.
Buzz--!
A resounding boom echoed through the heavens and earth, and the Saint Realm aura erupting from Yang Zhen's Great Deficiency Sword pierced through the heavens and earth, as if a line of Opening Heaven had split the sky and fallen from the firmament.
The Grand Elder's expression changed drastically, and he exclaimed, "Impossible!"
There is nothing impossible in this world. Since Yang Zhen did it, it is entirely possible!
If it were before Yang Zhen entered the Ten Mountains, facing the Grand Elder and the others, he might have run away. At this moment, the power within Yang Zhen's body had been completely transformed without him realizing it. The pure power of the Saint Realm was so pure that Yang Zhen could hardly believe it.
Before mastering the complete Swordsmanship, Yang Zhen was able to fight Heaven-Shocking Sword head-on with a half-baked, Elder Jian strike. Now, Yang Zhen doesn't even know if he can kill the Great Saint by using this complete Swordsmanship!
Kill the Great Saint!
The moment this idea popped into Yang Zhen's head, he felt like he was going crazy!
Is the Great Saint someone who can be killed so easily?
Yang Zhen felt a little cocky!
boom!
With a deafening roar, the Grand Elder was slashed to the ground by Yang Zhen's sword.
The Grand Elder stared blankly at Yang Zhen, who stood suspended in mid-air, while the others gaped, looking at the Grand Elder with disbelief.
Even Elder Jian looked on with suspicion. When did the Grand Elder's strength shrink so drastically?
Yang Zhen was merely a Saint Realm cultivator. Before entering the restriction, Elder Jian had fought with Yang Zhen. Although it was inside the Violet Firmament Heavenly Palace, Elder Jian was injured because Yang Zhen had tricked him. However, Elder Jian had a good understanding of Yang Zhen's strength.
With the Grand Elder's cultivation level, even if he couldn't kill Yang Zhen with a single sword strike, he shouldn't have been blasted to the ground by Yang Zhen's sword and questioned his existence.
Recalling Yang Zhen's earth-shattering sword strike, Elder Jian's face suddenly turned a mixture of red and blue.
Could it be that Yang Zhen has encountered another fortuitous opportunity within the Ten Mountains World?
Such a person is someone that even Elder Jian would want to take as a disciple, let alone the Grand Elder.
But is that still possible in a situation like this?
Compared to the legacy of the Holy Maiden Tianxuan, which is more important: Yang Zhen's potential?
The Grand Elder made a decision on this question almost instantly. He returned to Yang Zhen Yang Zhen, scrutinized him, and said in a deep voice, " Yang Zhen, is there any fatal grudge between us?"
Yang Zhen was taken aback by the Grand Elder's words. After a moment of serious thought, he said, "It seems there's no major grudge. It's just that you guys are always picking on this 'Sage of Saunter '."
Yes, it's them who's messing with me, this Sage of Saunter. Why did they have to organize this treasure appraisal event and even try to take this young lady as their daughter-in-law? This is simply something no man can tolerate.
This feud isn't that big; at most, it's an irreconcilable enmity!
Yang Zhen glared at the Grand Elder with a fierce expression, waiting for the Grand Elder to say something next.
The elder chuckled and said, "If that's the case, why have you tried to stop me time and time again?"
Yang Zhen glared at him and said, "What a hypocrite! You're the ones who're always picking on me, so how come it's me stopping you?"
Elder Jian snorted coldly and chimed in, " Yang Zhen, don't be so unreasonable. Do you know that once the Three Lives Flower fully erupts, everyone here will either die or be seriously injured?"
Yang Zhen exclaimed "Oh!", looked around at everyone, and said, "What does this have to do with me? Wanting to seek fortuitous opportunity and good fortune, but not wanting to face difficulties, what kind of logic is that?"
Upon hearing this, everyone thought it made sense!
We cultivators pursue the Heavenly Dao, but what fortuitous opportunity encounter doesn't involve the risk of death?
If you blame others when your life is in danger... damn it, I almost got fooled by that bastard Yang Zhen.
Why risk your life and wait for the Three Lives Flower Three Lives Flower erupt when you could have destroyed it to save everyone?
Everyone glared angrily at Yang Zhen. Even Elder Jian, after recovering from his shock, looked at Yang Zhen with fury and said, "I told you, don't try to cause trouble. Don't you know that protecting the Three Lives Flower is a sin?"
Elder Jian's face flickered with surprise and uncertainty as he looked at Yang Zhen, his expression one of anger at his lack of ambition. He exclaimed, "Boy, your talent is unparalleled in my life. If you could join the Yaoguang Holy Land, you might become another Great Saint, a Great Saint unparalleled renown throughout history. Breaking through to that level wouldn't be impossible. However, if you commit too many sins, even if Emperor Realm expert were to return, the heavens wouldn't be able to save your life!"
"None of your business!" Yang Zhen glared at him, then burst into laughter, saying, "Don't try to lecture me with your grand principles. The idea that I didn't kill Bo Ren, but Bo Ren died because of me is scorned by countless people in our village. While it's not entirely without merit, where in the grand scheme of things can logic prevail? For you, destroying the Three Lives Flower will save your lives and allow you to obtain the inheritance of the Holy Maiden Tianxuan. But have you considered what will happen to the Holy Maiden Tianxuan after you destroy the Three Lives Flower? What will happen to him...?"
boom--!
A deafening roar resounded, the heavens and earth erupted, chaos engulfed everything, and terrifying shockwaves rippled through the air, as if the earth itself were enraged.
Everyone stared in horror at the violent scene unfolding in mid-air, their faces filled with utter terror.
Even the Grand Elder and the Elder Jian looked at Yang Zhen with surprise and disbelief.
The Yaoguang Holy Son frowned, staring at Yang Zhen with a face full of anger and resentment. It was unclear what he was thinking, but suddenly his expression changed drastically. He coughed up a mouthful of blood, his aura weakened, and he slumped to the ground, gasping for breath, his face filled with horror.
The Third Elder roared, " Yaoguang, gather your spirits!"
The Yaoguang Holy Son trembled violently, his gaze towards Yang Zhen filled with evasion and horror.
" The Heavenly Dao Exaltation! It has actually caused the Heavenly Dao Exaltation!" The Grand Elder's face flashed with horror as he looked at Yang Zhen in disbelief.
Upon hearing the elder's words, everyone present showed expressions of shock.
" The Heavenly Dao Exaltation?" The Yaoguang Holy Son cried out in anguish, pointing at Yang Zhen and saying, "On what grounds? On what grounds is the Heavenly Dao Exaltation? What virtue or ability does Yang Zhen possess that would allow the Heavenly Dao Exaltation?"
" The Heavenly Dao Exaltation is a resonance between Heaven and Earth caused by the simplicity of the Great Dao. Clearly, Yang Zhen was right this time; our vision was too narrow, which displeased Heaven and Earth!"
The Third Elder sighed and gave Yang Zhen a deep look. At this moment, Yang Zhen stood in the air, like a War God, unrestrained and arrogant. The waves of energy around him surged like a raging storm, making it almost impossible for anyone to look directly at him.
How could the grand scheme laid out by the Holy Maiden Tianxuan over ten thousand years be destroyed by a few people at will?
Everyone stared at Yang Zhen with disbelief and disbelief, their faces filled with astonishment and uncertainty.
Little did Yang Zhen know that he was also completely bewildered. He had only said a few words in support of the Holy Maiden Tianxuan, so how did it become a matter of Heavenly Dao Exaltation?
Damn you, Heaven and Earth Exaltation, the next you're Heaven and Earth Rejection! What am I, this Sage of Saunter, supposed to do?
This is so damn hard!
