In the shadows, the Pavilion Master of the Azure Luan Pavilion carefully hid and took a deep breath.
She couldn't help but feel secretly relieved.
Thank goodness I ran fast enough, otherwise...
What a stroke of luck amidst misfortune!
In stark contrast to her expression was that of the Li Household patriarch.
His face turned pale, and he quickly bowed and clasped his hands in apology.
"Senior, we are unaware of your relationship with the Jade Balance Sword Palace. We have taken the liberty of visiting you. We will now depart..."
He couldn't hide his urgency and hurriedly ordered the Li Household to turn around. They had come quickly, and they left even faster.
A being at the Emperor Realm is definitely not someone they can afford to provoke.
However, watching their departing figures, Heavenly Venerable Yunli smiled gently.
With a slight raise of her hand, thousands of runes condensed behind her, eventually transforming into a gigantic phantom of a Maha giant. Opening its eyes as bright as gold, the giant drew its bow, which instantly appeared in its hand. Aiming at the direction of the Li Household's spirit boat fleet, it fired an arrow!
At the same time, Heavenly Venerable Yunli's clear and cold voice fell softly.
"My Jade Balance Sword Palace is not a place where you can come and go as you please. I apologize, but to prevent any future retaliation, therefore..."
"You will all stay here today."
As soon as he finished speaking, a dazzling arrow pierced through the void!
There were more than a dozen spirit boats and over fifty King Realm, including the Li Household patriarch, who was at the King Realm Eighth Layer Perfection.
Everyone was instantly reduced to dust by this arrow, scattering into the dust and merging with the biting wind.
The invading members of the Li Household were wiped out in an instant.
Never again!
Countless people around stared blankly at this scene, immersed in the shock of the giant's arrow, their eyes filled with astonishment and disbelief.
Is this the Emperor Realm...?
With just one arrow, he was able to instantly kill so many King Realm.
In the past, the Emperor Realm existed only in legends within the Seven Kingdoms, and almost no existing cultivators had ever seen its existence in the Emperor Realm.
They had no concept of the power of the Emperor Realm; they only knew that the Emperor Realm was very strong, but they couldn't explain exactly how strong it was.
But after today...
The power of the Emperor Realm is no longer just an unfounded rumor.
They finally grasped the essence of the power of the Emperor Realm...
This result was achieved at the cost of the lives of more than fifty members of the Li Household who were at the King Realm!
Those were over fifty King Realm!
Among them was the renowned Old Ghost Li, a powerful expert at the King Realm Eighth Layer Perfection.
Together with the others, this power, capable of destroying the Heron Empire, was effortlessly destroyed by this suddenly appearing Emperor Realm expert.
No wonder...
The cultivators below looked on in realization, muttering in a daze.
"No wonder... I was wondering why the Jade Balance Sword Palace, despite its weak strength, dared to accept Qin Feng, this jinx, even under the threat of the Scarlet Ghost King."
"I see, I see!"
With a powerful expert at the Emperor Realm in charge, what is the Scarlet Ghost King?
The Li Household patriarch was far stronger than the Scarlet Ghost King, yet he still perished here.
The mere Scarlet Ghost King?
What is he anyway?
If he were to receive news of this place, he would probably be so eager as to flee overnight, never to return to the Heron Empire, and perhaps even to the Seven Moon-Reflecting Kingdoms, never to set foot here again for all eternity.
The disciples of the Jade Balance Sword Palace below gazed at the celestial woman in the sky with awe and wonder.
Yunyi's pupils reflected the image of Heavenly Venerable Yunli. She clenched her fists, her heart filled with immense horror, and only one thought remained.
'Father, if you saw this with your own eyes, would you still think my choice was wrong?'
No answer is needed, because the answer has already been revealed.
With a single arrow, Heavenly Venerable Yunli wiped out the entire Li Household. Without even glancing at the surrounding cultivators, she lightly landed on the ground and looked back at Lin Xuan.
" The Li Household's crisis has been resolved; the Pavilion Master may continue his seclusion."
Lin Xuan neither agreed nor disagreed, nor did he stand on ceremony with Heavenly Venerable Yunli.
After all, she was his protector.
The Void Realm was approaching, and time was the most precious thing. Without hesitation, he returned directly to his cave abode and continued his seclusion.
If it weren't for Old Ghost Li's arrival, he would never have been able to leave seclusion.
Back in his cave abode, after activating the formation, Lin Xuan's body had reached its optimal state. He immediately consumed the Ultimate Dao Spirit Fusion Pill and the Supreme Sword Heart Pill.
The medicinal power of the pill surged within Lin Xuan's body. Lin Xuan immediately closed his eyes, refining the medicinal power for his own use.
Once the medicinal effects have worn off, it will be time to forge a new spirit sword.
At that time, the foundation of the Immortal-Slaying Sword Array will be completely renewed, and its power will be greatly enhanced!
Several days have passed in the blink of an eye.
When Lin Xuan went into seclusion, Heavenly Venerable Yunli always protected him and guarded the vicinity of his cave abode.
When she sensed the extremely alarming fluctuations emanating from Lin Xuan 'Lin Xuan cave abode, she instantly appeared in front of cave abode. Reacting swiftly, she raised her hand and cast a series of restrictions to conceal the shocking fluctuations that had made everyone in the Jade Balance Sword Palace tremble, thus preventing the fluctuations from spreading.
Even so, Fairy Cold Moon and Chen Xiong, among others, immediately sensed that extremely terrifying aura.
The terror of that aura was even greater than that of the Heavenly Venerable Yunli on that day!
For a moment, they were speechless with shock.
Fairy Cold Moon barely managed to maintain her composure and not appear too alarmed, but she was secretly astonished.
" Senior Lin's strength is very likely above that of the Palace Master!"
She couldn't believe it, yet she had no choice but to accept it.
My feeling just now was definitely right.
Can...
How old is Senior Lin?
I'm afraid he's not even Thirty yet!
What kind of monster is he?
At the same time, inside the cave abode, Lin Xuan slowly opened his eyes, looked down at his palm, and gently clenched his fist.
King Realm Thirteenth Layer!
Sixth Layer Sword Intent!
As he clenched his fist, the space around his palm twisted wildly, as if being pulled by an extremely terrifying force; the space itself seemed to crack.
powerful!
Extremely powerful!
The current Lin Xuan is practically a different person from the one who attacked the Li Household patriarch.
Even so, Lin Xuan slowly opened his palm, but sighed helplessly.
Although his strength improved rapidly, unfortunately, he had not yet successfully refined the newly acquired spirit sword and placed it into the Immortal-Slaying Sword Array as its base.
At this moment, the opening of the Void Realm is fast approaching...
Should we set off first, or perform the ritual first?
Without much thought, Lin Xuan made his choice.
It wouldn't be unreasonable to set off again after the spirit sword is successfully refined!
Lin Xuan took out his spirit sword and held it on his lap. He gently stroked the sword with one hand, and his Divine Sense swept across the foot of the mountain, landing on his disciples and others.
Su Lianxin and the others also saw a significant improvement in their cultivation and strength during this period!
Including Wang Yan, everyone had broken through to the Heavenly Profound Realm, with Su Lianxin naturally being the one at the highest level.
She has now broken through to the Heavenly Profound Realm Sixth Layer!
good.
Lin Xuan nodded slightly, quite satisfied.
The Heavenly Venerable Yunli, who was protecting him, was right in front of his cave abode. After a moment's thought, Lin Xuan deactivated the formation inside the cave abode and summoned the Heavenly Venerable Yunli to give him instructions.
"You all go ahead. I need a little more time. I'll come find you later."
Heavenly Venerable Yunli's gaze swept over Lin Xuan's entire body, secretly marveling at the rapid pace of the other party's strength improvement, yet also filled with doubt.
"Don't you need me to stay and protect you?"
Lin Xuan shook his head.
"No need."
With his current strength, he no longer needs it.
Heavenly Venerable Yunli then agreed, naturally having no objections to Lin Xuan's arrangement.
Before she left, Lin Xuan said something extremely important.
"Today, the Sword Pavilion is officially established, and the sect's location has been tentatively chosen. You are the First Sword Master of our Sword Pavilion."
"Therefore, if we encounter any powerful individuals or prodigies, we will first test their character and temperament. If they pass, we can recruit them into our Sword Pavilion. But remember, our Sword Pavilion does not accept ordinary cultivators..."
"As for my disciples, and Youmeng, they will all become True Disciple of the Sword Pavilion in the future!"
With the Sword Pavilion officially established, Heavenly Venerable Yunli was not surprised and nodded in agreement.
"I understand, so please don't worry."
"Alright, go ahead, I'm going to continue my seclusion."
Needless to say, Lin Xuan went into seclusion again after Heavenly Venerable Yunli left.
The sole purpose of this seclusion is to refine a seventh-grade spirit sword.
After leaving Lin Xuan's cave abode, Heavenly Venerable Yunli went straight to where Fairy Cold Moon was.
This time, she and Fairy Cold Moon will lead a team to the Void Realm.
There's still some time before the Void Realm opens, but they need to set off early.
After all, the journey is long, and the destination is no longer within the Seven Kingdoms, but the northern border of the Seven Kingdoms. Even if they travel by spirit boat, it will take some time to arrive.
The opening of the Void Realm has stirred the attention of all factions.
Chiyao Heavenly Palace is naturally among these "various forces".
Within the Chiyao Heavenly Palace, there is a deep blue pool, brimming with Spiritual Power, making it an ideal place for cultivation.
Beside the cold pool, a beautiful woman sat lost in thought, staring at her reflection in the water, her eyes growing increasingly vacant.
She was dressed in magnificent clothes, the very attire of True Disciple of the Chiyao Heavenly Palace.
Behind her, a female disciple walked up respectfully and stopped three feet behind the woman.
"Senior Sister Nangong, Master sent me to inform you that the Void Realm is about to begin, and our Chiyao Heavenly Palace team is about to depart."
"... good."
The woman moved slowly and responded softly.
This woman was none other than Nangong Yaoyue.
She didn't move immediately, but gazed at her reflection in the water, her eyes shimmering, and murmured softly.
"After this trip to the Void Realm, it's time for my ranking on the Hidden Dragon Ranking to change."
Currently, Nangong Yaoyue is ranked tenth on the Hidden Dragon Ranking.
She already possessed the strength to defeat the ninth-ranked Hidden Dragon Ranking, but she was in no hurry to make a move.
Because her goal is far more than ninth place.
As if struck by a sudden thought, Nangong Yaoyue's eyes flashed with determination. She gently smoothed the hem of her robe, stood up, and left with the female disciple.
The Void Realm.
She should go.
