Bloodshed in Raging Sand Valley, the Middle Vehicle Saint King, and the Mystery of the Sword Sect
Above the Raging Sand Valley, sandstorms raged.
"Kill!!!"
At the command of the Valley Master of Raging Sand Valley, dozens of the Nirvana Realm elders, like wolves pouncing on their prey, unleashed their violent magical power and swept towards the flying boat!
In their eyes, the people on this flying boat were simply mobile Earth Grade cultivation techniques and the position of elder of the Taibai Sword Sect!
"These reckless fools..."
Dongfang Yueming stepped forward, shielding the three women behind him.
His eyes were indifferent, without even a trace of emotion. Faced with this terrifying siege, enough to flatten a medium-sized city, he merely raised his right hand casually.
"Buzz--!"
[Heaven Grade attack Divine Ability - Taixu Nirvana Chaos Sword Formation]!
[Open Heaven with One Sword, Nirvana of All Laws!]
"BOOM!!!"
Above the sky, the clouds that were originally filled with yellow sand were instantly torn apart! A purple sword intent, tens of feet thick and containing the will of the Heavenly Dao to destroy everything, crashed down like a raging purple dragon!
"Ah--!!!"
The dozen or so Nirvana Realm elders at the forefront didn't even have time to react; their Nirvana power was as fragile as paper in the face of this sword intent.
Amidst a series of shrill screams, these dozen or so renowned experts from the Southern Wasteland Wilderness were instantly blasted into dust by the Purple Extreme Sword Intent, leaving not even a trace behind!
Instant kill!
"What... what kind of Divine Ability is this?!"
The remaining elders of Raging Sand Valley, who were about to rush forward, were so frightened that they stopped abruptly in mid-air, their eyes almost popping out of their sockets!
The Valley Master of Raging Sand Valley was so shocked that he gasped, his greed instantly replaced by extreme fear!
"One strike instantly kills more than a dozen Nirvana?! This is definitely not something an ordinary Saint King Realm could do! This is a tough one!"
He no longer cared about the bounty. His Saint King Domain instantly expanded, transforming into a vast, sand-filled wasteland that protected him within it. At the same time, he turned around and tried to escape back into the sect's protective formation!
"Trying to run?"
A cold smile curled at the corner of Dongfang Yueming's lips.
"You don't even have the right to run away from my domain."
"Open!"
With a thought, Dongfang Yueming's [Heaven-Grade Domain - Great Thousand Chaos Creation Divine Domain] instantly enveloped the space within a radius of a hundred miles!
"Bang!"
The Raging Sand Valley felt as if the surrounding space was completely stripped away in an instant. His proud Yellow Grade Major Accomplishment Raging Sand Desolate Domain was like snow hitting boiling water in front of Dongfang Yueming's Heaven-Grade Domain. It couldn't even last a second before it made a piercing cracking sound and collapsed with a bang!
"Puff--!"
The domain was forcibly crushed, and the Valley Master of Raging Sand Valley spat out a mouthful of blood, staring in horror at Dongfang Yueming, who was hovering in mid-air like a god.
"Senior... Senior, spare my life!!" He was so terrified that he knelt in mid-air and begged for mercy.
"It's too late."
Dongfang Yueming didn't bother with a single word of nonsense, and with his fingers like a sword, he made a light slash.
"Sizzle!"
A streak of purple-gold sword light disregarded spatial distance and pierced directly through the brow of the Valley Master of Raging Sand Valley.
This once-powerful second-rank sect leader, who had dominated the Southern Wasteland Wilderness, didn't even finish his plea for mercy before his eyes widened and his body fell limply from mid-air.
The entire hall fell silent.
The remaining elders and disciples of Raging Sand Valley were so frightened that they threw down their weapons, knelt on the ground, and didn't dare to breathe loudly.
With a sweep of his Divine Sense, Dongfang Yueming skillfully retrieved the storage ring of the Valley Master of Raging Sand Valley from a distance.
"A Yellow Grade Saint King Technique."
After examining the jade slip, Dongfang Yueming nodded in satisfaction. Although it was only Yellow Grade, little by little, it added up to exactly the synthesis materials he needed right now.
"Walk."
Ignoring the trembling crowd of the Mad Raging Sand Valley below, he turned and, with his flying boat, transformed into a streak of light and disappeared into the horizon.
The interior of the airship.
The atmosphere was somewhat oppressive.
Abbess Jingxu sat in the corner, her face pale and her eyes vacant. She couldn't understand why, after a lifetime of unwavering loyalty and countless acts of bravery for the sect, she had ended up being accused of colluding with a Variants and being wanted throughout the entire world.
"Master..." Lu Qingxue held her master's hand with a worried expression, her eyes reddening, "The sect leader must have been deceived by that Old Ghost Song!"
"Deceived?" Hong Gui sneered, her tone laced with undisguised sarcasm. "That old fox is a Saint King Realm, is he really that easily deceived? I bet he's just using this opportunity to eliminate his rivals and, incidentally, covet some benefits from your Taibai Sword Sect!"
Baihu nodded slightly. As a former high-ranking Night Watchers, she was all too familiar with the sordid infighting within such a large power.
Dongfang Yueming sat to one side, his fingers lightly tapping the table, a thoughtful light flashing in his deep eyes.
Things aren't that simple.
Dongfang Yueming spoke calmly, "Even if the Sect Master of the Taibai Sword Sect wanted to eliminate dissidents, there's no need to issue an arrest warrant. Unless..."
He recalled the fragments of memory he had obtained when he searched the Soul-Searching Lingtai Demon King.
"Unless, the person who actually issued this arrest warrant is no longer the sect leader, or the entire upper echelons of the Taibai Sword Sect have been completely infiltrated and controlled by that thing!"
Upon hearing this extremely terrifying conjecture, both Abbess Jingxu and Lu Qingxue trembled as if they had fallen into an ice cave.
If even a top-tier sect has been completely infiltrated by Variants, then this Crimson Profound World...
"The most urgent task is to enhance our strength."
Dongfang Yueming stood up. "Once I've deduced the Saint King's Method to the Heaven Grade, reaching its Top-Tier Perfection, I'll personally go back and crush them to find out just what kind of monsters and demons the Taibai Sword Sect is hiding!"
After saying that, he turned and walked into the deepest secret chamber of the flying boat.
Inside a sealed room.
Dongfang Yueming sat cross-legged and placed the jade slip containing the "Yellow Grade Saint King Law" obtained from Raging Sand Valley on his forehead.
"System, Point Allocation Perfection!"
[Ding! Consuming... points, "Raging Sand Saint King Art" (Yellow Grade) has advanced to Saint King Perfection!]
"Merge!"
Without hesitation, Dongfang Yueming clashed this newly Perfection cultivation technique fiercely with the "Heavenly Profound Saint King Record" (Yellow Grade Perfection) already within his body!
"Boom!"
[Ding! Congratulations, host! Fusion successful!]
[Obtained the Profound Grade Saint King Method - "The Limitless Profound Sand Saint King Record" (Perfection)!]
"Buzz--!"
With the birth of the Profound Grade technique, the Saint King's aura within Dongfang Yueming underwent another terrifying qualitative change!
He could clearly feel that the range of the laws of heaven and earth that he controlled had expanded more than tenfold in an instant!
[Middle Vehicle Saint King Perfection: A Thousand-Mile Sacred Domain]!
"Hoo... The rules within a thousand miles can all be changed at my will."
Dongfang Yueming clenched his fist, his eyes flashing with fanatical light. But he was not satisfied with this, because he was still far from achieving his goal of Heaven Grade cultivation technique.
"Keep ordering!"
After emerging from the pass, he immediately commanded the airship, embarking on a frenzied "sweeping spree."
In the time that follows.
An unprecedented and terrifying storm swept across the Southern Wasteland wilderness.
Flying Cloud Fortress, Setting Sun Sect, Netherwater Pavilion...
Six renowned second-tier super sects in the Southern Wasteland Wilderness were successively "visited" by Dongfang Yueming!
Regardless of whether the opponent has activated their sect-protecting formation or whether they have Saint King Realm ancestor present.
Under the absolute crushing power of Dongfang Yueming's terrifying [Heaven-Grade Domain] and [Heaven-Grade Divine Ability], all resistance became a futile joke.
He didn't go on a killing spree, but as long as the other party didn't hand over the Saint King's Dharma, he would directly suppress them with force and forcibly plunder them!
"Bang!"
With the treasury of the last second-rank sect— Thunder Sound Temple —being forcibly opened.
Dongfang Yueming satisfiedly put the last jade slip, which was emitting a faint glow, into his pocket.
"All of them are here."
He stood above Thunder Sound Temple, looking at the six jade slips of the "Yellow Grade Saint King Method" lying quietly in his storage ring, a cold and arrogant smile curling at the corner of his mouth.
"Now, it's time to go into seclusion and attempt to break through to the legendary realm of the Supreme Saint King."
"The day I emerge from seclusion will be the day I reclaim the Taibai Sword Sect!"
