Chapter 535 Han Yangjian
Jade Master stiffened.
He only discovered that he was locked by an irresistible force and was unable to escape…
“Senior Brother Wang, I’ll go first. Haha!” With that crazy laughter, Jade Master gathered all his strength and suddenly threw Wang Juefeng out with his only arm.
The next moment, after a ray of sword radiance tore his body apart, he turned into a cloud of bloody mist and died.
Fallen.
“Junior Brother…” Wang Juefeng became furious.
Because he had watched his Junior Brother die distressingly in front of him, overwhelming hatred overflowed his heart.
“Let’s go!” Someone appeared in a flash as if he were in a relay and caught Wang Juefeng, who was flying out, and then continued to fly toward the mountain gate like lightning.
He turned out to be Young Master Sword, Guan Feidu.
“Haha, a group of nonentities. You’re bound to die once I intend to kill you. Nobody can survive.” The arrogant voice sounded again.
The next moment, a ray of dazzling sword radiance, carrying apocalyptic killing desire, attacked them again.
The formidable man in the sky, actually directing his aim at Wang Juefeng, started chasing after him desperately, determined to kill him.
The sword light approached him in the blink of an eye.
Guan Feidu tried his best to resist, but he failed to gain the upper hand because of his injuries.
Just as the two of them were about to be killed by the ruthless sword radiance, a red light suddenly shot down from the mountain at this critical moment. With a flash, it collided with the ruthless sword radiance and smashed it in an instant.
Guan Feidu took the opportunity to jump and flew out of the area covered by sword radiance with Wang Juefeng.
“What? I didn’t expect that there should be such a powerful man among the group of nonentities…” The voice, full of amazement, rang out from the sky. Then the strong man gave up chasing Guan Feidu and Wang Juefeng because an incessant crimson sword light poured from the top of the mountain like a pent-up river and was going to engulf those people in the sky.
It was Qi Qingshan!
Someone cheered.
At the moment of truth, the top master of the Swordsmanship-seeking Sect eventually ended his meditation on the Sword-hidden Peak and took action to fight against the strong enemy.
There were four enemies in the sky.
Surrounded by crimson flames and the fragrance of wine from his wine gourd, Qi Qingshan belched a lump of crimson light as he opened his mouth, which turned into Sword Qi and scattered wildly. It besieged the four men for a moment even though the sword lights over the four men were incomparably powerful.
In the meantime, tens of thousands of invaders at the foot of the mountain swarmed up frantically.
“Disciples of the Swordsmanship-seeking Sect, retreat into the mountain gate quickly!”
A loud shout rang out like thunder. At this point, dozens of figures with powerful auras shot down from the mountain in the shape of flowing lights and charged into the crowd of invaders. They were so formidable that no one was able to stop them wherever they passed, as though they were blazing-hot sharp knives that had pierced through cheese.
In an instant, countless invaders were burned to ashes.
“Head Master!”
“Chief Tang!”
“Martial Uncles of the Six Peaks and Six Bases!”
The surviving disciples of the Swordsmanship-seeking Sect began to cheer.
The masters of the sects finally took action.
With the light glittering in the mountain gate, giant sword radiances faintly gathered in the air. At the last one, which was the most solid, the mountain-protecting formation was activated and the eight major ladder areas of the Swordsmanship-seeking Sect were enveloped. Under the protection of Head Master Li Jianyi and other masters, the disciples of the Swordsmanship-seeking Sect who survived the previous pass finally returned to the mountain-protecting formation.
“Haha, Li Jianyi, since you’ve been a coward for such a long time and asked your disciples to sacrifice for you, why do you show up now? I’ve been waiting for you for a long time!”
A burst of laughter also rang out from the camp at the foot of the mountain.
Immediately, more than a dozen brilliant lights shot up into the sky and flew toward the mountain gate, besieging Li Jianyi, Tang Folei, and other masters. They were the head of the Tranquility Academy Fang Xiaoan, Lu Xiongfei, Tie Zhan, who was in charge of the Leiyin Sect, and other top powerhouses from other major sects who had joined the camp of invaders.
The experts from both sides finally clashed with each other at this time.
They all devoted themselves to this collision.
The battle between ordinary disciples and martial artists finally came to an end.
At this point, continuing to fight did make no sense.
The consequence of the competition between the experts in the sky would determine the outcome of the battle among sects!
Almost all the surviving disciples of the Swordsmanship-seeking Sect had retreated into the mountain-protecting formation, holding their breath and watching the battle attentively.
Wang Juefeng, covered in blood, was barely able to stand up with the help of Guan Feidu.
At this moment, his mind already went blank and warm tears streamed down his face.
They were dead!
They were all dead.
Those brave men who had struggled for more than 10 days for the sake of the Swordsmanship-seeking Sect were all dead in an instant!
As he thought of what had happened less than 15 minutes ago, it was still like a nightmare for him.
15 minutes ago, after the Swordsmanship-seeking Sect had firmly guarded the Three Waters Pass for three days, the crazy invaders retreated significantly in an instant without any warning. They had thought that it would be a long-term truce and all disciples could have a chance to obtain more breathing space, but the situation suddenly changed—
However, when the four figures rose into the air in the depths of the distant camp and the incomparable aura surged, Wang Juefeng suddenly realized that a disaster was coming!
Judging from the unique aura of the four people, they were definitely not experts from Snow Province.
The next moment, four rays of powerful Sharp Gold Sword Qi burst out from these four people, as if four peerless swords appeared in the void. It was Qi only belonging to sword practitioners, with unparalleled destructive power and tearing power. Its light-golden flame was a symbol of killing and bloodshed.
Although Wang Juefeng was only at the stage of great grandmaster, he could feel that the strength of these four people was far above that of almost all the martial arts masters in Snow Province.
These four people were absolutely from outside of Snow Province.
At that point, Wang Juefeng understood that what the senior managers of sects had been most worried about had happened.
Experts from super sects outside of Snow Province had appeared.
Lu Xiongfei did not scare him.
The next moment, before Wang Juefeng had yet to make a deployment, the four absolutely powerful sword practitioners had already launched a devastating attack.
Countless light swords poured down from the sky. Wherever they passed, mountains collapsed, rocks shattered, and the earth crumbled.
In the face of such an attack, the almost-consuming inscription array of the Three Waters Pass was instantly broken, as if it was made of paper…
Wang Juefeng helplessly saw that more than 30 elite inside disciples were pierced by a wisp of sword light and instantly turned into bloody mist.
Similar tragedies repeated over and over again. Under the formidable sword light, all the defense arrays were as flimsy as paper, so that the Three Waters Pass was occupied by the enemy in an instant.
More than 90 percent of the disciples who guarded the pass were killed without any chance to struggle.
Only a few experts with powerful strength had barely escaped.
Then the situation began to be one-sided.
The strength of the four sword practitioners was at least at the peak of the Martial King Realm, so the disciples of the Swordsmanship-seeking Sect obviously could not resist them at all. Wherever the sword light passed, any formation was destroyed. Then, the East Wind Pass and the Jiuquan Pass were almost destroyed in a flash. Hundreds of disciples of the Swordsmanship-seeking Sect who guarded the two passes were almost completely annihilated!
At this time, Wang Juefeng was already covered in blood.
He looked around and found that aside from the core disciples above the Natural Realm, such as Guan Feidu, Shen Ku, and Lu Qi, almost all the other disciples who guarded the passes and fought with him had been killed by the sword radiance. Even the core disciples above the Natural Realm, such as Yin Yifei and Leng Yixuan, had been killed!
In this battle, more than 30 percent of the ordinary disciples of the Swordsmanship-seeking Sect were killed, and over half of the core elite disciples were dead.
He looked up.
In the sky, Qi Qingshan was fighting alone against four sword practitioners who were at the peak of the Martial King Realm.
The red sword radiance shone like the tide and enveloped him. At this point, he and the four sword practitioners at the peak of the Martial King Realm were locked in battle.
For a moment, it was hard to tell who had the upper hand.
At the foot of the mountain, Li Jianyi, Tang Folei, Luo Lan, and the chief of the Six Peaks and Six Bases were fighting fiercely against Fang Xiaoan, the head of the Tranquility Academy, Tie Zhan of the Leiyin Sect, Lu Xiongfei, Saint Lord of the Falling Star, and some others in the ruins of the East Wind Pass. With the sword light glinting and the lightning flashing, their fight hid the sun and moon and shadowed the sky.
This was the strongest team that the Swordsmanship-seeking Sect could dispatch.
At this moment, almost all the experts of the Swordsmanship-seeking Sect went out to fight with all their strength.
This battle was related to the final fate of the Swordsmanship-seeking Sect.
Wang Juefeng had no time to adjust his breath and heal his wounds, nor did everyone else. They all stared at the two battle groups with rapt attention.
“Boom!”
With a sudden explosion in the sky, the sword radiance shattered.
A powerful sword practitioner stumbled and spat out a mouthful of blood, flying backward.
Everyone’s heart skipped a beat and they looked up.
They saw Qi Qingshan being enveloped by the sword radiance with the fragrance of wine. With an unparalleled imposing manner, he actually succeeded in resisting the four experts at the peak of the Martial King Realm. At this moment, he seemed to have the upper hand.
The rays of red sword light covered the sky and the earth, which were like red roaring dragons. As the firelight covered half of the sky and almost dyed it crimson, the horrible aura surged. At this time, Qi Qingshan was like an invincible god, suppressing the four great sword practitioners!
A sword practitioner put his sword in front of his chest and asked loudly, “It’s impossible… Who are you? How can there be such a powerful person like you in Snow Province?”
The four great sword practitioners stood in four directions, surrounding Qi Qingshan faintly.
The contempt on their faces had all disappeared, and they put on solemn expressions.
Qi Qingshan’s amazing combat capability forced them to be serious. It seemed that the information they had gained before was wrong. This small sect in the border states actually had such a strong expert, which was a bit abnormal.
“Who are you?” Qi Qingshan stood in midair with his long hair fluttering.
“Han Yangjian of the Heaven-Splitting Swordsmanship Sect in Sword Province,” a sword practitioner, who seemed to be in his 30s, replied coldly.
“Heaven-Splitting Swordsmanship Sect? We are compatriots of the Human Clan, and the Swordsmanship-seeking Sect has nothing against your Heaven-Splitting Swordsmanship Sect. Why did you kill our disciples?” Qi Qingshan asked in anger, “Aren’t you afraid of being punished by the Holy Palace of Mysterious Frost?”
“Haha, how naive you are. The man is not guilty, but the good fortune he owns spells disaster.” Han Yangjian said coldly, “A puny sect like yours is not capable of enjoying the power of the mysterious crystal. I sent someone to warn you over a dozen days ago, but you just turned a blind eye to it. Now that you’re so stubborn, you do court death today. As for the Holy Palace of Mysterious Frost… You’re just too naive. Old man, given your strength, I will spare your life if you surrender!”
