Fate-Defying Demon Emperor

The Mysterious Great Sword Saint, in grey cloth, white hair over his shoulders, exuded a decrepit aura with dwindling vitality.

However, upon his arrival, a terrifying sword intent filled every corner of the world. Whether it was the Three Yin Commanders or Li Mingliang and Li Qingyue hiding underground, they all felt an unprecedentedly terrifying edge.

The faces of the Three Yin Commanders changed drastically as they felt as if countless sharp swords were flying throughout the world.

A sword was poised at their throats, another pierced their hearts, a third struck their brow. These swords were imaginary, yet they seemed so real, immobilizing the Three Yin Commanders, fearing they might be slain with one strike.

It was too terrifying!

So fearful!

Incredibly powerful!

The hearts of the Three Yin Commanders churned tumultuously, filled with dread.

They instantly realized that the visitor was the Heavenly Sword Dynasty’s top Sword Saint: the Mysterious Great Sword Saint!

Yet, the Mysterious Great Sword Saint had not made a move for over sixty years. It was rumored he failed in path enlightenment, maintaining life through the spiritual energy of a secret realm, and was approaching death.

Why was he here?

Was it for Wei Wenzheng and Wei Ying, or the Nineteenth Prince?

The appearance of the Mysterious Great Sword Saint was beyond the Three Yin Commanders’ expectations. Despite all their calculations, they never imagined this legendary Sword Saint would appear.

”How could he be so strong?”

Black Cloud Saint’s voice trembled. He thought he equaled the Mysterious Great Sword Saint as a Great Saint, but the terrifying sword intent brought unspeakable pressure, like the Grim Reaper’s gaze, threatening to claim his life at any moment.

Not only Black Cloud Saint but also Extinct Lightning Saint and Grim Rain Saint felt the same pressure, akin to an invisible blade above their heads, ready to strike.

Though the Mysterious Great Sword Saint seemed decrepit and weak, his back remained straight, his gaze sharp as a sword, making direct eye contact intimidating, lest one’s heart spirit be injured.

”Hmm?”

The Mysterious Great Sword Saint’s divine sense swept across, discovering Wei Ying and Wei Wenzheng. They were alive but barely so. Had he arrived a moment later, all would have been lost.

”Rodents from King Yama’s Palace dare to step into the Heavenly Sword Dynasty, oblivious of their mortality!”

With a wave, the Mysterious Great Sword Saint unleashed three rays of holy light towards Wei Wenzheng, Wei Ying, and the Heart Sword Saint. Although unable to heal them, it could seal their injuries, preventing them from worsening and temporarily saving their lives.

The Mysterious Great Sword Saint’s gaze never left the Three Yin Commanders, making their skins crawl.

”Intermediate Grade Divine Power: Transform into Lightning!”

At this moment, Extinct Lightning Saint suddenly erupted with terrifying holy might, using the Divine Power Technique. His entire being shone brightly, like an eternal lightning capable of destruction.

Swish!

Extinct Lightning Saint suddenly tore through space, rushing towards Su Han, seizing the opportunity to attack and hoping to defeat Su Han first.

Once Su Han was dead, the three of them could escape. Though powerful, the Mysterious Great Sword Saint couldn’t stop them all.

”Courting death!”

Extinct Lightning Saint’s actions made the Mysterious Great Sword Saint’s eyes flash intensely, sharp and icy. He reached out, gathering an indescribable sword light.

This dazzling sword light couldn’t be looked at directly. The terrifying sword intent it emitted cleaved the dark clouds in the sky in two, like an unparalleled holy sword splitting the heavens.

”Heaven Rank Intermediate Martial Technique: Extinguishing Strike!”

The Mysterious Great Sword Saint waved his hand, the brilliant sword light like a meteor falling, tearing through the sky, twisting time and space, catching up with Extinct Lightning Saint.

Boom!

The piercing sword light collided fiercely with the Eternal Lightning that Extinct Lightning Saint transformed into. In a split second, the world roared, the ground shattered, and countless spatial fragments scattered while energy surged and sword qi burst forth.

Had the place not been deserted, there would have been numerous casualties; the aftermath of a Saint battle isn’t something ordinary people can withstand, let alone this top-level Saint Realm clash.

The brilliant sword light faded, and the eternal lightning dimmed as Extinct Lightning Saint reappeared, a gash on his back smooth as a mirror, holy blood flowing incessantly. It couldn’t heal because the sword intent of the Mysterious Great Sword Saint was lodged within, making healing incredibly difficult.

One sword strike, and Extinct Lightning Saint was severely injured!

This proved that the Mysterious Great Sword Saint’s strength surpassed Extinct Lightning Saint not by a small margin, making Black Cloud Saint and Grim Rain Saint even more anxious.

”You go kill the Nineteenth Prince!”

Black Cloud Saint gritted his teeth, quickly deciding. Instantly, a vast screen blended with black clouds to form an unparalleled eclipsing hand.

He intended to fully engage the Mysterious Great Sword Saint, giving time for Extinct Lightning Saint and Grim Rain Saint.

”Grandfather, catch the sword!”

Su Han suddenly waved his hand, taking the Mysterious Void Holy Sword from the Bronze Ring and tossing it to the Mysterious Great Sword Saint.

The Mysterious Void Holy Sword, a supreme grade holy artifact, was the Mysterious Great Sword Saint’s sword, greatly enhancing his combat power with it in hand.

At this moment, Su Han couldn’t worry about the Mysterious Great Sword Saint’s intentions toward him; resolving the immediate crisis was most important.

Whoosh!

The torrential rain, laden with dense death qi, rushed towards the Mysterious Void Holy Sword, attempting to corrode and prevent it from reaching the Mysterious Great Sword Saint.

Yet, this sword, the Mysterious Great Sword Saint’s weapon for centuries, was intrinsically linked to him; the black rain could not affect it.

Swish!

The Mysterious Void Holy Sword burst with sunlight-like brilliance, evaporating the black rain into nothingness.

Then, the Mysterious Void Holy Sword cleaved the sky, severing heaven and earth, returning to the Mysterious Great Sword Saint’s hand.

With the sword in hand, the Mysterious Great Sword Saint’s aura transformed again, his fury vanished, leaving only cold killing intent. His stance grew more imposing, like a drawn sword exuding an unmistakable edge, deterring direct gaze.

The current Mysterious Great Sword Saint was no longer the struggling creature trapped in the secret realm but the foremost Sword Saint of the Heavenly Sword Dynasty, once capable of path enlightenment.

”Great Freedom Sword Qi!”

Clenching the Mysterious Void Holy Sword, the Mysterious Great Sword Saint’s eyes, like blades, bypassed Black Cloud Saint, fixing on the injured Extinct Lightning Saint.

Crack!

Holding the Mysterious Void Holy Sword, his aura peaked, his entire being a peerless divine sword, suddenly striking.

A river-like brilliant sword qi howled forth, space couldn’t block it, time couldn’t affect it, no Saint could withstand it.

Black Cloud Saint couldn’t intercept it in time, Extinct Lightning Saint couldn’t escape, and the Great Freedom Sword Qi came upon him.

Swish!

With a flash of sword light, Extinct Lightning Saint was severed in half!
