The Sword God of the Universe

Chapter 1217: Chapter 1217: Worry

The True God Taiyu, who was legendary across the Four Domains, has now fallen.

Standing beside Taiyu’s corpse, Zhao Duan put away Taiyu’s mobile space, but the black longsword remained in his hand.

His scarlet eyes suddenly tightened, scanning the spectator martial artists who had arrived not long ago.

Everyone shuddered under that gaze, even those martial artists from the same Eastern Domain as Demon Zhao.

”Quick, run!”

”Get out, get out!”

”Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh!”

Figures transformed into streaks of light, swiftly fleeing in all directions.

These martial artists, including the top figures from the Southern and Western Domains, despite their pride, lost the courage to confront Demon Zhao directly after witnessing Taiyu’s demise.

”Senior Brother!”

”Greetings, Senior Brother!” The small groups of martial artists from the Eastern Domain did not flee. Instead, they approached Zhao Duan with respect, their faces full of awe.

”What are you standing here for? Go after them!” Zhao Duan’s cold eyes swept over these Eastern Domain martial artists.

”Yes!” The Eastern Domain martial artists immediately pursued those who had fled.

Zhao Duan refrained from attacking martial artists from his own Divine Domain, which relieved the Eastern Domain martial artists. They were grateful that Zhao Duan was one of them rather than a killer from one of the other three Divine Domains.

Seeing the Eastern Domain martial artists quickly pursue the others, Zhao Duan grinned hideously. With a quick movement, he also chased in the direction some martial artists had fled.

”The hunt begins!” Zhao Duan’s eyes became increasingly scarlet and terrifying.

”Damn it, those Eastern Domain bastards are chasing us!”

”Could Demon Zhao be behind them?”

”Never mind, let’s hurry and teleport out. There’s only half a month left anyway, leaving now isn’t much of a loss.”

Many of the pursued martial artists activated directional teleportation arrays and left the Upper Pure Secret Realm.

A hundred martial artists from the Eastern Domain entered the Upper Pure Secret Realm, while the other three Divine Domains each had fifty. The martial artists from the three Jade Stream Divine Domains of the South, West, and North were outnumbered when encountering those from the Eastern Domain.

Some were unwilling to just leave and tangled with the pursuing martial artists for a while, while others had no intention to fight and immediately activated the directional teleportation arrays when they saw the Eastern Domain martial artists catching up.

Of course, a few brave martial artists decided to take advantage of the chaos.

Currently, inside the Upper Pure Secret Realm, the weakest prey seemed to be the Northern Domain, which had lost its top True God, Taiyu. Even martial artists from the Southern and Western Domains were pursuing those from the Northern Domain.

Outside the Upper Pure Secret Realm.

The red dots on the light wall were blinking and disappearing continuously. In a short time, many martial artists were transported to the platform. Within the time it took for a cup of tea, the number of red dots on the light wall dwindled to about fifty.

Most of the disappearing dots were teleported out, but a small number perished forever within the Upper Pure Secret Realm.

The Domain Masters of the four Divine Domains all wore grave expressions.

Those just teleported out looked visibly upset.

”Domain Master... Lord Domain!” A martial artist from the Northern Domain, pale-faced, looked at Hao Yuntian.

”What is the situation inside now?” Hao Yuntian, sensing something amiss, asked immediately.

”Senior Brother Taiyu, he... he is dead!” The Northern Domain martial artist lowered his head. Even now, his heart was still pounding. If someone as powerful as Taiyu could be killed by Demon Zhao, what chance did they have if faced with Zhao? One strike would mean their end.

”What?” Hao Yuntian’s body trembled, a fierce gleam in his eyes.

”Senior Brother Taiyu fought Zhao Duan and eventually fell at his hand,” the Northern Domain martial artist spoke more fluently now that he was safe outside. Zhao dared not act recklessly in front of the four Domain Masters.

Chen Qi, the Eastern Domain Master, brightened.

”Taiyu is dead? Killed by Zhao Duan? Well done! Hahaha...” Chen Qi was overjoyed inside.

Fairy Xiuyan, one of the top ten beauties of the Eastern Domain, was killed by Yan Jin from the Northern Domain, and now the Northern Domain’s top True God, Taiyu, was killed by Eastern Domain Zhao Duan. This trade-off was no loss!

Chen Qi, who had been feeling gloomy, suddenly felt invigorated.

However, he showed no signs of joy on his face, concealing his emotions well.

”Taiyu dead? What a pity! Taiyu, if alive, would almost certainly reach the Main God realm. With Taiyu’s talent, upon ascent, he’d far surpass ordinary Main Gods.” Chen Qi spoke with regret.

Hao Yuntian appeared expressionless.

”Cloud Sky Domain Master, my condolences!” The Domain Masters of the Southern and Western Domains nodded to Hao Yuntian, feigning sadness.

In truth, they felt no sorrow. Taiyu’s death was no loss to them, as their Divine Domain’s top True God wasn’t the one who perished in the Upper Pure Secret Realm.

The martial artists continued to be transported out of the Secret Realm. The red dots on the light wall gradually dwindled to about forty. At least half of these last forty were Eastern Domain martial artists.

”Damn it!”

”Why hasn’t Mr. Yan Jin come out yet?” Hao Yuntian’s eyes stayed locked on the teleported martial artists, seeking Jing Yan’s presence.

His primary concern was Jing Yan’s safety. Taiyu’s death was already a great loss. If Jing Yan also met misfortune, it would be a devastating blow. From Hao Yuntian’s perspective, a High-level Divine Pill Master like Jing Yan, capable of refining the Nine Glories Pill, was incomparable to Taiyu.

Though Hao Yuntian believed Jing Yan’s combat power was formidable, even that might not withstand Demon Zhao.

”Mr. Yan Jin, please, teleport out quickly!” Hao Yuntian thought to himself.

Inside the Secret Realm.

”Run! Faster! Demon Zhao is catching up!” Zhu Chun shouted loudly.

The six of them had pushed their flying speed to the limit. Each held their token in hand, ready to activate the teleportation array and leave the Upper Pure Secret Realm at any moment.

All six looked pale and their breath ragged. They could sense a terrifyingly powerful aura closing in from behind.

Demon Zhao’s speed was far superior. Should things remain unchanged, they’d soon be caught. Thus, the six resolved to activate the teleportation array at the sight of Demon Zhao.

”Is that Zhu Chun’s team?”

A distance of several hundred miles ahead of Zhu Chun’s team, a green silhouette was leisurely flying.
