Chapter 179: Sword Twenty-Three! Destroying the Heavenly Alliance, Ti Shitian's Defense Crumbles

Chapter 179: Sword Twenty-Three! Destroying the Heavenly Alliance, Ti Shitian's Defense Crumbles

"Huh?"

"The Holy Spirit Sword Art also has Sword Twenty-Three?"

"Why didn't that senior use it before?"

Jianzi was a little confused by the situation.

Both of them knew the Holy Spirit Sword Art, and at first, he thought they were from the same sect. But now, you used Sword Twenty-Three on your first move?

Nameless only used up to Sword Twenty-Two.

So...

Is Nameless not the orthodox successor?

"Hahaha!"

The Sword Saint laughed heartily, a carefree and maniacal laughter.

Looking back on his life, he had lived it to the fullest.

At the age of three, when he first came to the treasure trove, the moment the doors opened, the Twin Swords had already sensed something. The Twin Swords unsheathed themselves and flew towards Dugu Jian, trembling incessantly. In an instant, a hundred swords resonated within the treasure trove, cheering for the reunion of the Twin Swords and their master.

At the age of five, his grandfather, Solitary Sorrow, seemed to have sensed his father Solitary Twin's ambitious heart. Since he was already in his twilight years, he didn't want Doubles City to fall into the hands of such a narrow-minded person. So, he sought out his grandson and told him that he would soon embark on a journey, hoping that he would inherit Doubles City and also asked him to take the Seven Lives Oblivion pill.

But in the end, his father took action, poisoning and killing his grandfather. He attempted to forcefully seize the position of City Lord, but his evil deeds were exposed during the succession ceremony. Enraged, he turned on his own flesh and blood.

However, the five-year-old Jianzi had already achieved unity with the sword, and the Twin Swords responded to his sword intent, unsheathing themselves. With this, Jianzi broke through the treasure trove's doors, and the Twin Swords shattered seven and eight stone walls, coming to his defense. He severed Solitary Twin's palm with a single strike.

Afterward, Jianzi expelled his biological parents from Doubles City. Years later, he passed on the position of City Lord to his younger brother, Solitary One, and set off to the East to pursue a higher level of sword cultivation...

After that...

Sigh.

He thought of his beloved, Palace Origin Snow Spirit.

Then, he thought of the World Sword.

Stroking the sword scar on his forehead, the old Sword Saint couldn't help but shed tears.

In this life, he had experienced too much.

But the one thing that truly made him regret and became a lifelong pain in his heart was also the one he could never meet again.

Unfortunately, they couldn't meet in this lifetime.

After returning from the East, Nameless had multiple duels with him, retired, and was invited to a one-on-one battle at the Heavenly Pool against 108 assassins. In the end, only 12 of the most powerful escaped.

Then, he attempted to restore Doubles City.

But at the same time, he was in seclusion, trying to comprehend the true Sword Twenty-Three, and preparing for a battle with Xiong Ba.

However, he couldn't break through! Even if I use all my strength, will I still have a chance?"

The Sword Saint's divine soul returned to its original position, witnessing your rise... This life, no regrets, only sorrow."

"Sorrow that I couldn't see you at your strongest, sorrow that I couldn't be with her forever..."

His words trailed off.

The old Sword Saint fell silent, and then turned to dust and dissipated.

"Farewell, senior!"

Jianzi bowed deeply in the direction of the old Sword Saint's dissipation.

He felt a little melancholy but had no regrets.

As for the old Sword Saint's death...

The old Sword Saint had already reached the end of his life, and there wasn't much time left. Fighting him was also a way to fulfill his final wish.

At the same time, he also took on his karmic fate! Xiong Ba would surely die.

"Sword Twenty-Three is indeed unfathomable."

"If I can recreate it in the Immortal Martial Continent..."

Swordzi felt a bit dazed.

Thinking back to the old Sword Saint’s world-shocking sword technique, he was still in awe for a long time.

He didn’t even notice that San Ye had already entered a deep level of Dao comprehension.

He picked up San-ye, somewhat dazed, and said, “It’s about time. There are still some sword experts in this world, but from my perspective, their sword arts are all inferior to Sword Twenty-Three!”

“It’s time to join up with the Sect Master.”

Why did he agree so readily to the old Sword Saint’s request?

Because, in a previous Divine Perception scan,, Swordzi had already discovered that people like LinFan and others were clashing with the Heavenly Alliance.

The youngFengyun was severely injured, fleeing.

It was onlyLinFan’s intention to spare their lives; otherwise, they would have been killed on the spot.

And now...

They must have reached the headquarters of the Heavenly Alliance, himself needed to hurry over and join the fray.

Moreover...

Xiong Ba must not be left alive.

Though he didn’t know who Xiong Ba was, he deduced from the old Sword Saint’s strength that he should be able to finish him off.

...

At the headquarters of the Heavenly Alliance.

Xiong Ba’s face was ashen.

Beside him, Qin Shuang’s breath was as fine as a thread, and Du Lan’s face was almost unrecognizable.

Wen Chouchou and others were already in shambles.

Long Ao Jiao’s horse reared and fell, quickly killing several people who had no where to retreat.

"Who are you all?!"

"What grudge do we have with the Heavenly Alliance? Why are you doing this?!"

The grand Xiong Ba, who boasted of being the first in the world, was almost scared outofhis wits.

These people were just too strong, too hard to believe or understand!

Even the weakest among them didn’t seem weaker than himself!

But how could this be?

In the world, when did so many ‘Utmost’ figures appear?

What kind of force could cultivate such figures?

Am I just dreaming?

He once suspected he was trapped in a nightmare, unable to escape.

.

But this illusion was reinforced his a continuous reminder that everything was real, not a dream.

"You all..."

He continued, “I don’t know you, but with your strength, coming to the Heavenly Alliance would be meaningless, you the any grate to bear you you.”

“What misunderstanding?”

occurred?”

“I’m willing to offer good wine and and good and and good, and and treasures the to finest, the the a girl!”

.”

.”

.”

”

.”

.”

”

.”

.”

, this is your chance!”

“Hold on.”

.”

LinFan_gently lifted his hand.

“Ling’er, go ahead.”

“Yes, Master.”

Xiao Ling’er stepped forward.

She didn’t understand why LinFan arranged this way.

But since Master spoke, there must be a reason.

LinFan’s thoughts were very simple.

Since this was a Secret Realm, and their own Secret Realm, the ‘key mission’ should be better handled by someone from their own side, wouldn’tthat be better to be to?

?

“Everyone...”

Xiong Ba’s expression changed again more more,

tense in

change, “ to be him in the moment.

“

"A powerful individual can unleash up to ninety percent of their Primordial Breath."

"And a hundred percent Primordial Reunion!"

"If you can also utilize the Hundred Percent Primordial Reunion, you should be able to fight me."

"You..."

"Can you?"

Xiong Ba's expression changed twice, and without another word, he slapped Duan Lang, who was completely unprepared, causing him to crash into Xiao Ling'er. Xiong Ba then turned and ran away.

Sizzle!

Xiao Ling'er remained calm, and with a wave of her hand, the fire spread.

Xiong Ba couldn't escape...

Before long, the entire headquarters of the Heavenly Alliance turned into a sea of fire.

Xiong Ba's corpse...

Not even a hair was left.

When Jian Zi arrived, he saw this scene and couldn't help but relax.

"Is it that simple?"

Song Yunxiao was stunned.

He had thought that this secret realm instance would be challenging, and his heart had been in suspense, but...was this it?

"The Heavenly Alliance is the number one sect, and the leader has this level of strength...Master, have we overreacted?" Song Yunxiao felt embarrassed.

He had thought that he wouldn't be able to handle this secret realm, but his master had called so many powerful individuals, and now he felt embarrassed.

"Overreacted?"

"Perhaps."

But Lin Fan didn't think so.

The Heavenly Alliance is indeed the number one sect, and Xiong Ba...is not weak.

But he's only not weak.

Those stronger than Xiong Ba are numerous.

After all, he's just an early-stage small boss.

It's not much.

"Speaking of which, without Xiong Ba, is Fengyun still the 'protagonist'? Can he still grow to that height?"

"..."

"Forget it, they're not the mission targets anyway. Let them live, and we'll consider it as raising them. When the sect's disciples come in, they'll have 'monsters' to grind."

"Otherwise, if we kill all the experts, what will the disciples have to play with?"

"We can't just run through the map, can we?"

"Boring."

Long Aojiao shook her head, "Too boring."

"I thought this world would be quite fun, but I never imagined they would be so weak."

As soon as these words left his mouth, Ni Pusa trembled.

"This...world?"

"You...are indeed visitors from another world?"

"So what?"

"Old man, you can calculate, right? Come, calculate for us, where are the true dragons, phoenixes, and divine beasts in this world?"

"Also, are there hidden ultimate experts in this world? Where are they?"

"If you don't listen, I'll slap you to death!"

"?"

Ni Pusa was speechless.

Okay, so this is how you're playing?

You're visitors from another world, and you're powerful, I acknowledge that.

But you're not treating me like a person at all. I can divine and calculate, but I'm not a god. Calculating these things and revealing heavenly secrets will invite heavenly retribution!

Haven't you seen that I've already suffered retribution, my body covered in foul-smelling, painful sores?

If I tell you these things, can I still live?

Ni Pusa sighed, "Young lady, it's not that I don't want to tell you, but...I'm willing but unable, revealing heavenly secrets will invite retribution."

"I've already suffered retribution and my body is covered in sores..."

"If I continue to reveal secrets, I'll die on the spot."

"What's the difference between telling and not telling?"

"Sigh."

"Then I'll slap you to death!" Long Aojiao was furious.

But Lin Fan lightly raised his hand to stop her, "Not yet, not yet."

"There's still room for negotiation."

Slapping Ni Pusa to death is not difficult.

The Fengyun world, to put it simply, is currently the 'Earth' map. With everyone's strength, even if there are secret realms, they can't be detected by divine perception, and at most, it would only take ten days or half a month to explore.

But...

Ni Pusa can directly calculate and save time, isn't that better?

"Ling'er."

"Yes, Master."

Xiao Ling'er stepped forward and took out a pill, "This pill can't cure all ailments, but it will relieve your pain."

Ni Pusa shook his head, "No need, my pain can't be cured by medicine."

"Otherwise, I would have healed already."

"There's no need..."

Pfft!

Before he could finish, Xiao Ling'er flicked her finger, and the pill entered his throat.

Ni Pusa's face changed suddenly.

Can't you people show some respect for this old man?

At least let me finish my words.

Even if you don't respect the elderly...sigh!

Ni Pusa's face suddenly turned foul, covered in painful sores, emitting a disgusting odor, and he couldn't bear the pain.

But at this moment, he suddenly felt an intense itch all over his body, an unfamiliar sensation that made Ni Pusa very surprised.

The itch was external, and the pain on his face intensified.

This extremely unfamiliar feeling made Ni Pusa was very perplexed.

But this feeling came quickly and left even faster.

In the blink of an eye, everything changed.

The pain disappeared!

The unbearable itch also vanished without a trace.

His body felt incredibly light.

Even the air seemed fresher.

There was a fire burning within him, and his dantian instantly filled with true qi, even overflowing, uncontrollably spreading.

"True qi is released, first...the Primordial Realm?"

Ni Pusa was skilled in divination but weak in strength, just an ant compared to the Heavenly Alliance's disciples who could easily bully him. But now, after swallowing the pill, he directly became a Primordial Realm expert?

(End of this chapter)

In the current situation, Fengyun and his companion seemed to have no other choice. He looked at Xiao Ling'er with disbelief, his eyes filled with curiosity.

It was hard to imagine where these people came from and what kind of existence the pill they had just consumed was.

"Could it be an immortal pill?" he wondered.

"What a waste," Long Aojiao scoffed, "Absolutely a waste!"

Giving such a pill to an insignificant ant? That's not just a waste!

"It's not an immortal pill, just a healing pill," Xiao Ling'er clarified, "Its main effect is healing, but you're too weak, and your injuries weren't severe. Therefore, the excess power of the pill gathered in your dantian, transforming your physical body and granting you some strength."

"But now, you've fully recovered. Even if you encounter a few more heavenly retributions, you'll be fine."

"Of course, even if there's danger, I can bring you back," she assured him.

Mud Bodhisattva: "(⊙o⊙)···?!"

Listen, listen!

Is that even humanly possible?

"My injuries weren't severe?!" she exclaimed. "That was a heavenly retribution! All the famous doctors were helpless, and I suffered in pain every day. I could only rely on the Fire Monkey to suck on the festering wounds to stay alive, tormenting me to the point of being neither human nor ghost. I've been hiding and changing my name, fearing that someone would force me to reveal the secrets of the heavens and face another retribution."

"And now you're telling me my injuries weren't severe?!" she exclaimed in disbelief.

A single pill healed her injuries, removed the heavenly retribution, and the excess power even transformed her into a natural-born expert..."

"It's not an immortal pill," she added.

"Senior," Mud Bodhisattva acknowledged, momentarily shocked but quickly regaining her composure.

He understood that this was his destiny.

And the people before him were undoubtedly 'gods'!

What choice did he have?

"Huff..."

He exhaled, "I understand."

"I'll start the divination."

"However, the Phoenix has died!"

"The Black Tortoise Divine Beast is also dead."

"The Kirin and the True Dragon are still alive."

"But, speaking of the Phoenix..."

After a moment of divination, his eyes took on a strange gleam, "The one who consumed the essence of the Phoenix is far away, yet so close."

"Right here..."

He pointed.

"Hmm?!"

Long Aojiao immediately took action, pointing her finger.

Boom!!!

The sky shattered, and the stone lion exploded, revealing a figure soaring into the sky.

He wore an ice crystal mask, moved with astonishing speed, and could even turn invisible! Lin Fan instantly recognized him as Di Shi Tian.

Just as he had managed to dodge Long Aojiao's attack, he found himself surrounded by Huo Kun Lun and the others, with no way out.

"Haha."

"Mud Bodhisattva, you actually divined my presence. I should have eliminated you!" Di Shi Tian laughed, his heart filled with terror.

He had been playing with mortals, and Xiong Ba was just a pawn in his game. He had wanted to stir up some trouble, but never expected the Heavenly Alliance to face such a catastrophic change.

The strength of these people was too terrifying, and even he didn't dare to act recklessly. He used the secret art of Turtle Breath to hide within the stone lion, planning to leave quietly after they departed.

Initially, he was anxious, fearing discovery.

But as time passed and no one noticed him, he gradually relaxed.

However, he hadn't expected to be found by Mud Bodhisattva at this moment, and his anger surged, mixed with fear.

"This person isn't bad. He's almost as strong as a Sixth Realm expert," he assessed.

Long Aojiao lost interest in attacking and instead turned to Mud Bodhisattva, "There must be stronger people, right?"

"..."

Di Shi Tian: "?"

I'm not dead yet!

"How dare you!"

Although Di Shi Tian was terrified and afraid of death, the current situation left him no choice.

He had to fight for his life, and perhaps, there was still a glimmer of hope!

Seeing that everyone's attention was elsewhere, he took action.

"Surprise Tribulation!"

His first move was one of the Sacred Heart Tribulations.

His eyes lit up like laser beams, shooting towards the closest target, Wu Xingyun.

She remained calm, without any reaction.

Hum.

A protective barrier appeared, blocking the attack.

Di Shi Tian was shocked.

He could sense that among this group, Wu Xingyun wasn't particularly strong. Yet, even she faced his attack with such composure?

"This is bad!" he thought, immediately activating the Sacred Heart Technique, trying to freeze Wu Xingyun with icy power.

However, she easily blocked his attack.

Di Shi Tian was dumbfounded.

What are you all? How is this possible?

Are you all too powerful, or am I too weak? Di Shi Tian began to question his own abilities.

But as a monster who had lived for over two thousand years, he quickly regained his composure and activated a secret technique, connecting his heartbeat to Wu Xingyun's!

This was one of Di Shi Tian's ultimate skills.

Once successful, he could control their heartbeats!

He could even cause them to suffer the same harm by severing his own heart pulse, leading to their death!

Wu Xingyun was completely unprepared for the Sacred Heart Tribulation.

Di Shi Tian succeeded, and his joy knew no bounds.

He immediately controlled his heartbeat, slowing it down drastically, and seeing Wu Xingyun's change in expression, he spoke, "I have no grudges with you, nor do I recognize you. I don't want to fight with you!"

"Let me leave!"

"Otherwise, she will die today!"

Although they hadn't expected this, except for a few like Song Yunxiao, the others now understood.

Di Shi Tian was using some secret technique to control their heartbeats.

This move could be fatal against ordinary martial artists.

But against cultivators, especially those who had entered the Sixth Realm...

Was this even possible?

As soon as this thought crossed his mind, Wu Xingyun showed a hint of surprise, "Your methods are quite extraordinary, almost like a cultivator."

Ti Shitian: "???"

"What do you mean by a cultivator?"

Just as he was confused, Wu Xingyun raised her hand and lightly patted her own chest.

Slap!

The sound wasn't loud.

But Ti Shitian's heart felt like it was being twisted, and the pain was unbearable.

"Wah!"

He suddenly spat out a mouthful of blood, his face turning deathly pale.

"You..."

"Are you trying to take me down with you?!"

He was stunned.

What the hell is going on here?

We're connected by our heart pulses, sharing life and death, why can't you just let me go?

You want to take me down with you, and you're so casual about it, cutting off your own heart pulse to drag me to the underworld...

Are you insane?!

Are you really not afraid of death?

Or do I have some deep-seated grudge with you that you won't let me go?

He knelt on the ground, coughing up blood.

As he was feeling dejected, Wu Xingyun's expression remained calm.

"That's not right!"

"You???"

"..."

Wu Xingyun's face didn't change, and she said, "Cutting off one's heart pulse is indeed fatal for martial artists like you, but for us..."

"It's not a big deal at all."

Even if a single meridian is severed, or the heart is directly struck by lightning, or even if the head is blown up, as long as the divine soul remains intact, 'revival' is not difficult.

Injuries like severed limbs, shattered hearts, and the like are even easier to recover from, and regenerating limbs is a simple matter.

So...

Why do you think you can share life and death with me?

And you want to threaten me with this?

Nonsense.

At this moment, Wu Xingyun even felt that Ti Shitian's methods were not bad. If both parties were cultivators, being able to connect their 'fates' might allow for a weak party to overcome a strong one or threaten the opponent to not act recklessly.

But in a different system with completely unequal sides, merely connecting heart pulses...

is truly laughable.

At the same time, they were also thinking.

Could this move be 'strengthened' into a technique usable by cultivators, directly connecting the opponent's divine soul and fate?

If that could be achieved...

it would truly be an ultimate technique!

"This..."

"You?"

"Me!"

Ti Shitian was baffled.

He really couldn't understand why this was happening!

And who were these people?

How could they be so heaven-defying?

Even cutting off their heart pulses was treated as 'trivial'.

"Hahaha."

He gave a bitter laugh and collapsed, muttering, "Today, heaven wants me to perish..."

Then, he died.

Lin Fan watched with great interest.

Faking death, huh?

Lin Fan said to Wu Xingyun, "Second Elder, I find this person a bit strange. Let's dispose of the body."

Song Yunxiao was startled and secretly marveled.

Does the Master have this kind of hobby?

The Second Elder was an obedient one and was about to take action.

But suddenly, Ti Shitian's corpse trembled and then rushed out at an incredibly fast speed...

"Freedom Ascension Steps!"

Ti Shitian displayed his ultimate light body skill, almost surpassing the speed of sound with his first step, trying to escape.

But at this moment, he felt even more like crying.

What the hell are these people?!

Damn!

One after another, they're all heaven-defying, and now they want to destroy the body and erase all traces?

I'm just pretending to be dead, not actually wanting to die!

"Huh?!"

"Faking death?"

"He really fooled us all just now!"

"It seems we can't underestimate these martial artists."

Huo Kun Lun, Lian Bo, and the others were all astonished.

They had seen clearly and sensed it with their divine perception.

Ti Shitian's heart pulse was indeed severed, and his breathing, heartbeat, and blood flow had all stopped. No matter how they looked at it, he was already dead!

Faking death?

But why would a martial artist pretend to be dead in front of a group of powerful beings like them and succeed?

They exchanged glances.

"These methods are quite extraordinary."

"There's something to learn from this!"

"This is the importance of a complete miniature world-like secret realm. It's self-sustaining and self-contained, and after who knows how many years of development, it has its own unique aspects!"

"Even if we can't fully utilize it, the thought process behind it is still somewhat beneficial."

"A stone from another mountain can polish jade!"

"Second Elder, please don't be too harsh. Let's play with him a bit longer and see if he can bring us any other surprises."

They became interested.

They had originally thought it would be a straightforward matter to crush him.

But now, it seems...

Perhaps, they can indeed gain some inspiration and unexpected insights.

"It's quite intriguing."

Dragon Aojiao also became interested.

Her eyes gleamed, and she used a secret technique, "Let's kill him once more, and I want to see how he managed to successfully fake his death in front of us!"

This is too much, too much!!!

Ti Shitian was furious.

He felt like a mouse being toyed with by a cat at this moment.

And it was a group of cats!

Then...

He was stopped again.

By the Second Elder, Wu Xingyun.

His once-proud Freedom Ascension Steps, which could surpass the speed of sound, were merely ordinary in the eyes of cultivators, and he couldn't escape.

"Die!!!

Ti Shitian was nearly driven mad, and in his rage, he unleashed the Evil Blood Slaughter, a technique that allowed him to control the enemy's blood! It caused the blood to riot and even flow backward, leading to death.

If the opponent had external injuries, it could also cause unstoppable bleeding, turning them into a dried-up corpse in a short time. Such a technique was indeed powerful and cruel.

But he soon discovered it was useless! He had clearly succeeded in controlling Wu Xingyun's blood flow, causing it to 'reverse', yet Wu Xingyun stood before him as if nothing had happened.
