Ling Tian Sword God

CRACK! CRACK!

The temperature in the area plummeted as Xu Ruoyan mobilized her True Qi, and a massive Ice Lotus formed beneath her sword.

Witnessing Xu Ruoyan conjure such a formidable Ice Lotus, the expressions of many Divine Intent Sect experts subtly shifted. However, they did not retreat. Instead, a trace of madness surged in their eyes as they rushed forward.

”Go!”

With Xu Ruoyan’s low shout, the Ice Lotus, dozens of feet in size, bloomed forth the moment she brandished her sword. Her Sword Momentum was earth-shattering.

BANG!

The Ice Lotus exploded. Immediately, woeful screams echoed as blood spurted and severed limbs rained down, staining the ground red.

This single strike directly slaughtered hundreds.

Xu Ruoyan single-handedly halted the Divine Intent Sect’s tidal wave of an attack.

Just then, three experts materialized behind Shentu Yan.

Among these three, one wielded a blade, one a spear, and the last seemed proficient in Hidden Weapons. All three were experts at the Sky Apex Realm Second Layer, undoubtedly a cut above the previous group.

”Li Tong, Wang Ping, Wu Sansi, capture her. Do not underestimate her abilities, and do not disappoint me,” Shentu Yan glanced at the three and said indifferently.

”Yes!”

Upon his command, the three experts behind him responded instantly. They were all Shentu Yan’s proteges, and their advancements to this Realm were attributable to his nurturing. However, even before consuming the Breaking Sky Spirit Liquid, they were already veteran Grand Masters at the peak of the Nine Heavy Realm Dharma. Consequently, their Cultivation had reached levels beyond that of ordinary people.

Yet, they could never cultivate to a higher Realm in this lifetime.

The three moved simultaneously, appearing before Xu Ruoyan in an instant. With a cold snort and a glint in their eyes, they attacked in unison. Surging True Qi permeated the air, forming waves of power that countered Xu Ruoyan’s techniques.

”Kill! Remove the weed by the root! Not one of these Pupils of Tianxu Palace shall be left alive!” the three shouted coldly.

The disciples of the Divine Intent Sect, whose advance had been halted, responded with bloodshot eyes and frenzied determination. Then, like a renewed tidal wave, they pursued the retreating Pupils of Tianxu Palace.

Seeing this, Xu Ruoyan bit her lip lightly. However, the instant she moved, the sound of rending air reached her. The three experts from the Divine Intent Sect had already surrounded her, locking her in place.

”Get lost!” The cold voice contained a hint of anger. Xu Ruoyan tightly gripped her Long Sword, a chilly killing intent flashed through her beautiful eyes.

”HUMPH! Such an insignificant junior dares to show us no respect and has the audacity to tell us to get lost?”

”The three of us have joined forces against a mere junior like you. You can die without regrets.”

The three experts sneered. Without giving Xu Ruoyan any time to react, their vast True Qi surged as they attacked her in unison.

”King-level Martial Art, Nine Defeated Blades!”

”Mad Sha Exploding Flame Spear!”

”Blood-stopping Divine Needle!”

The three attacked Xu Ruoyan simultaneously. A vast, peerless blade gleam, unending spear energy, and silent Hidden Weapons bombarded Xu Ruoyan, bearing down on her with crushing force.

BOOM!

Even before the attacks reached Xu Ruoyan, the ground beneath her feet cracked open. Large fissures spread out like an encroaching abyss.

Xu Ruoyan calmly watched the fierce onslaught. The next moment, her slender, jade-like hand abruptly clenched her Treasure Sword. True Qi surged from her body like a tide, coalescing into a snow-white Ice Lotus behind her.

”Ice Lotus to the Sky!”

With Xu Ruoyan’s cry, the incredibly sharp and frigid sword qi Ice Lotus grew at a visible rate, rapidly becoming colossal, as if to touch the sky.

BANG!

Three fierce attacks slammed into the Ice Lotus, causing an incomparably violent eruption of energy fluctuations.

”Break!”

A chilly shout suddenly sounded. At that moment, the Ice Lotus began to spin fiercely. Its petals stirred, conjuring terrifyingly sharp icy glints and forming dreadful air currents. Those three fierce attacks were ground to pieces by the Ice Lotus’s rotation.

The three Divine Intent Sect experts watched, their eyes flickering. Xu Ruoyan’s aura is merely at the Sky Apex Realm First Layer, so why is her attack so powerful?

WHOOSH!

While they reeled in shock, the sword qi Ice Lotus shattered their attacks and then shot upwards, directly towards them.

”HUMPH!”

Their eyes turned cold at the sight. She actually dares to counter-attack! They immediately channeled their True Qi once more. Three attacks roared down furiously, transforming within the surging True Qi into three columns of light that tore through the air to heavily strike the Ice Lotus.

”Burst!”

The instant the Ice Lotus and the three attacks collided, it exploded violently, transforming into countless shards of icy sword qi that blanketed the sky and flew in all directions.

”Not good!”

Seeing the sky fill with shooting sword qi, an intense premonition of danger gripped the three Elders’ hearts. They hastily mobilized their True Qi Defense, attempting to erect a Shield.

However, they had just erected their Shield when it was struck by the sword qi from the lotus petals. Initially, the True Qi Shield held, but this lotus-petal sword qi seemed to possess an extremely frigid property. Each strike on the True Qi Shield would freeze a large patch of True Qi. Thus, when the subsequent sword qi arrived, it easily tore through their defenses.

In the blink of an eye, thousands of sword qi strikes sent them flying backward, spraying blood, their bodies grievously wounded.

WHOOSH!

A cold light flashed, revealing an ethereal figure. A glint of fierceness shone in her Qiu Shui-like eyes. With a flick of her jade-like hand, a sharp beam of sword light shot out.

SWISH! SWISH!

The cyan-robed silhouette flashed past the three experts. As she slowly sheathed her Long Sword, thin lines of blood appeared on the three experts’ necks. Blood gushed forth, and their heads tumbled through the air.

”Sect Leader, save—”

Before they could utter a full cry for help, the three Sky Apex Realm experts were dead.

”HUMPH!”

A chilling glint surfaced in Shentu Yan’s eyes. The next moment, he struck decisively. His figure flickered and vanished as if by some arcane art.

Clearly, Shentu Yan could no longer restrain himself and had decided to act personally.

Xu Ruoyan abruptly looked up to see a dark shadow rapidly descending. A palm strike, carrying the might to blot out the sky, thundered down fiercely.

Shentu Yan’s aura was terrifyingly oppressive. His body was wreathed in a black miasma, making him resemble a dark cloud that loomed over Xu Ruoyan.

CRACK! CRACK!

The palm’s pressure, descending from above, impacted the ground. Instantly, the earth around Xu Ruoyan caved in, a giant handprint deeply indented into its surface.
