Chapter 291: Primordial Nine Seals, Divine Sword Intent of Zhusan, Pure Chapter of the Dao Scripture!

Yuanyang Realm.

There was a record left by a historian of later generations.

In the 351st year of Hongyuan, a Martial Immortal was reincarnated in the Qingzhou region of Great Jin.

During the crisis of the Human Race, he turned the tide and eliminated the demon scourge.

This attracted the attention of the Celestial Immortals, who descended upon the world, causing the Great Sun to transform and scorch the earth and all its creatures.

The Martial Immortal fought fiercely with the Celestial Immortals for over a month, causing the heavens and earth to shatter and the sun and moon to lose their light.

In the end, he slew the Celestial Immortal beneath the high heavens.

With this, the Demon Race was eradicated from the Three Mountains and Five Lands, and the Human Race was finally free from their threat!

Afterward, the Martial Immortal set up a grand array, imparted martial arts, and led the Human Race toward a prosperous future.

In the 353rd year of Hongyuan, the Martial Immortal ascended, and his name spread throughout the realm.

The name of the Martial Immortal was Qin Zheng!

Taixu Mountain Summit.

A young figure in a golden-patterned black robe stood atop the mountain, overlooking the eight distinct realms below.

Beside him stood a man emanating sword intent.

"Elder, you need not worry," the man said. "The Golden Phoenix Immortal has been slain, and his fellow tribesmen have been driven away by our Heavenly Pole Sword Sect. The Yuanyang Realm is now safe."

"Moreover, the Yuanyang Realm is not far from our Heavenly Pole Sword Sect, so you can return at any time."

Qiu Huayuan respectfully spoke.

Qin Zheng nodded slightly.

Before leaving, he had set up the entire Three Mountains and Five Lands as a massive Heavenly Star Array.

With an entire realm as the array, its power had surged significantly.

It was enough to deal with any existence below the Eleventh Tier Dharmic Body.

The human immortal-grade longsword he obtained from the Golden Sun Sage Monarch was also handed over to Xun Zhengxin.

With the array and a human immortal-grade sacred treasure, there would be no danger unless another demon immortal descended.

Thinking of this, Qin Zheng turned to Qiu Huayuan and said, "Let's go."

Staying in the Yuanyang Realm was not a solution; only by going to the Lingxu World, where there were countless demons to cultivate, could he continue to rapidly grow stronger.

Only then could he truly protect the Human Race!

Hearing Qin Zheng's words, Qiu Huayuan nodded and replied, "Okay!"

He then took out a bronze mirror from his chest and continued, "This bronze mirror is called the Immortal Spirit Mother-Son Mirror, and it can be used to communicate across different realms."

"It can also be used to anchor positions and travel between realms. We need its assistance to return to the Lingxu World."

As Qiu Huayuan spoke, his body slowly rose into the air.

The spatial gateway of the Yuanyang Realm was right above the Taixu Mountain Summit.

Qiu Huayuan held the bronze mirror in his left hand and made a sword gesture with his right. A piercing sword aura burst from his body, gathering on his sword fingers.

"Open!"

With a loud shout, he slashed, and a sharp sword beam appeared, slicing through the thin void and revealing the spatial gateway.

"Elder, please follow me closely!"

Qiu Huayuan turned around and said.

Qin Zheng nodded and stepped forward, his body rising into the air.

The two of them immediately entered the spatial gateway, one after the other.

Lingxu World, Heavenly Origin Realm.

Two meteors streaked across the sky and landed in a vast and ancient mountain range.

These two meteors were none other than Qiu Huayuan and Qin Zheng, who had crossed over from the Yuanyang Realm.

"Elder, this is the Lingxu World," Qiu Huayuan said, turning to Qin Zheng.

Qin Zheng nodded slightly, his expression calm as he scanned the surroundings and extended his spiritual awareness.

Being in the Upper Realm, the concentration of spiritual energy alone was far beyond that of the Yuanyang Realm.

With his perception, everything around him was laid bare, reflecting in his mind.

"This place is near the edge of the Heavenly Origin Realm, and it's quite a distance from the Heavenly Pole Sword Sect. Let's set off immediately."

Qiu Huayuan continued.

Qin Zheng, having just arrived, had no objections and nodded slightly.

The two of them took a step forward, soaring into the sky and transforming into two streaks of light, rushing toward the direction of the Heavenly Pole Sword Sect.

"The Human Race's territory is divided into nine realms, and the Heavenly Origin Realm is one of them."

"The size of the Heavenly Origin Realm is roughly ten times that of the Yuanyang Realm."

Qiu Huayuan explained to Qin Zheng as they flew swiftly.

Hearing this, Qin Zheng nodded and asked, "How many Human Race forces are there in the Lingxu World?"

"Or, to put it another way, how many existences are there above the Immortal Realm?"

Qiu Huayuan paused for a moment, then replied, "The Lingxu World is vast, and even though the Human Race's territory only occupies a small portion, it is still extremely vast."

"Therefore, I cannot answer how many forces there are among the Human Race, nor do I know how many existences there are above the Immortal Realm."

"However, I am familiar with the situation in the Heavenly Origin Realm."

"In the Heavenly Origin Realm, there are five major powers, one Celestial Immortal, eight Earth Immortals, and seventeen Human Immortals."

"Our Heavenly Pole Sword Sect is the weakest among the five powers, with only three Human Immortals."

As Qiu Huayuan finished speaking, he looked slightly embarrassed.

Qin Zheng showed no expression, as his mind was occupied with estimating the overall strength of the Human Race in the Lingxu World.

If the situation in the Heavenly Origin Realm is considered average among the Nine Realms of the Humans, then the overall strength of the Humans consists of nine Celestial Immortals, seventy-two Earth Immortals, and one hundred fifty-three Human Immortals!

At first glance, their power seems formidable.

However, within the Demon Race, there are ten Demon Deities, a hundred Demon Lords, and countless Demon Immortals!

Demon Deities are even more powerful than Celestial Immortals.

Naturally, Demon Lords should be on par with Celestial Immortals!

With this comparison, it's evident that the overall strength of the Humans falls far behind the Demons.

Qin Zheng's thoughts echoed this realization.

At this moment, Qiu Huayuan continued, "In the Lingxu Realm, the most powerful force among the Demons is the Demon Emperor Palace."

"The Demon Emperor Palace was founded by the Ten Great Demon Deities and governs all Demons in the Lingxu Realm."

"In contrast, the most formidable force among us Humans is the Human Sovereign Palace."

"The Absolute Immortal Sword Wu Qingping is from the Human Sovereign Palace."

"The Human Sovereign Palace is situated in the Central Great Realm, possessing the pinnacle of Human strength and resources. It is the primary force against the Demons, and thus, its presence is felt across the Nine Realms."

"In the Heavenly Origin Realm, there is a branch of the Human Sovereign Palace, which is also one of the five major powers."

Through Qiu Huayuan's words, Qin Zheng gradually formed an impression of the Heavenly Origin Realm.

As they flew swiftly towards the location of the Heavenward Sword Sect, Qiu Huayuan's voice gradually became silent.

His expression began to show signs of unease.

Something's not right!

Why is it so quiet!

As one of the five major powers in the Heavenly Origin Realm, the Heavenward Sword Sect, despite lacking Celestial and Earth Immortals, still had three Human Immortals to protect it!

Consequently, they should have been able to shelter Humans within a thirty-thousand-li radius.

According to past experiences, there should have been many disciples' glows visible within this range.

But as they flew, not a single glow appeared.

Could it be that after the battle with the four Demon Immortals, the sect was severely damaged and had not yet recovered? Qiu Huayuan thought.

A sense of foreboding suddenly gripped his heart.

Without hesitation, he accelerated, flying towards the Heavenward Sword Sect.

Seeing this, Qin Zheng's expression slightly tightened, and he sped up to catch up with Qiu Huayuan.

After a few breaths.

The Great Sun set in the west, its fiery glow illuminating the charred ruins below.

The lingering heat still seemed to distort the void.

Three heads, forcibly torn off and with eyes wide open in fury, were placed at the highest point of the ruins.

A bronze mirror was also casually discarded nearby.

Witnessing this scene, Qiu Huayuan opened his mouth, wanting to say something.

However, despite being at the Eleventh Stage Dharmic Body, he found that he couldn't control his voice at this moment!

His eyes reddened visibly, and his face turned ashen, like blood had drained from it.

The Heavenward Sword Sect has been annihilated!

The three Human Immortal ancestors have been killed!

Looking at the ruins, a profound sorrow suddenly overwhelmed him, causing his body to tremble uncontrollably.

But before he could grieve and weep, he abruptly turned and shouted at Qin Zheng, "Run! Quick!"

The one who sent the message to the Immortal Spirit Mother-Son Mirror must be the one who destroyed the Heavenward Sword Sect!

Judging by this situation, the culprit could only be the kin of the Golden Crow Immortal!

Those four are also Human Immortal-level Golden Crow Great Demons!

Hearing Qiu Huayuan's warning, Qin Zheng shook his head slightly and calmly said, "It's too late."

As he finished speaking.

Boom!

Four streams of glow abruptly descended from the sky, like four fiery meteorites, landing around the two of them.

Violent fiery waves swept across the area.

Four Human Immortal-level auras unleashed without restraint in all directions.

Qiu Huayuan's face turned even paler.

"Just the two of you?"

"You've truly wasted my efforts."

A man in a golden robe, with a majestic aura, looked at Qiu Huayuan and Qin Zheng, his brows furrowed and his expression shadowed.

As a Human Immortal, he had carefully lured them, only to find that they were just two Human Dharmic Bodies!

On the other side, after the initial shock, Qiu Huayuan's anger erupted.

"You dare to annihilate my Heavenward Sword Sect! Are you not afraid of the Human Sovereign Palace's retaliation?"

"Don't forget, this Heavenly Origin Realm is the territory of the Humans, not the Demons!"

He didn't respond to the golden-robed man's question but instead, glared at the four Golden Crow Great Demons and shouted.

Hearing his rebuke, the Great Demons didn't get angry. Instead, they exchanged glances and burst into laughter.

"The Heavenward Sword Sect was annihilated more than three days ago. Where is this Human Sovereign Palace you speak of?"

One of the Great Demons mocked Qiu Huayuan.

Faced with overwhelming power disparity, the weaker side's defiance was met with ridicule.

After this sentence, Qiu Huayuan's expression froze, and he stumbled back two steps.

A sense of helplessness washed over him, and he was about to fall backward.

Slap!

Just then, a powerful hand reached out and caught him.

"Hold on."

A calm yet steady voice sounded in his ear.

Qiu Huayuan's mind suddenly snapped back to attention, and he steadied his body.

Then, in his line of sight, a figure in a golden-patterned black robe took a step forward and walked to the highest point of the ruins.

After carefully removing the three heads, he turned back and came to stand before Qiu Huayuan, handing him the three heads.

"The fight will be loud, and it might destroy this place. Protect the remains of the three seniors."

Qin Zheng spoke calmly.

By now, he naturally understood that the person he had communicated with was one of the three Human Immortals from the Heavenly Pole Sword Sect.

Although the other party had not descended to the Yuanyang Realm to save the humans there, Qin Zheng could still feel the other party's desire to save the humans.

He had always held the highest respect for such a person.

Moreover, the current situation made Qin Zheng understand why the other party dared not intervene to save the humans in the Yuanyang Realm.

Because once involved, they would face the same fate as now.

The sect's destruction and their own deaths!

Qiu Huayuan stared blankly at Qin Zheng's actions, then suddenly snapped out of it and reached out to take the heads.

At the same time, he looked at Qin Zheng with concern and said, "Senior..."

At the same time.

A Golden Phoenix Great Demon in a golden robe watched Qin Zheng's actions and listened to his words, and a hint of mockery appeared in his expression.

"Interesting."

He spoke.

The other three Great Demons also showed mocking smiles.

A Dharmic Body was actually going to fight the four Human Immortals in front of them? It was truly laughable!

Did the humans not understand the vast gap between a Dharmic Body and a Human Immortal?

Even if the Dharmic Body was perfect, in front of a Human Immortal, it was no different from an ordinary mortal!

"There are always such jokes among humans who don't know their place."

"Never mind, let's kill these two little minions first, and then we'll go to the Yuanyang Realm and catch the murderer who killed the Fifth Brother."

The golden-robed man continued.

Among the other three Great Demons, one was about to take action.

Buzz!

Just then!

A shocking sword humming sound suddenly appeared.

The four Great Demons were instantly startled.

"Please don't run, or it will be troublesome to chase after you one by one!"

Then, a calm voice echoed throughout the surrounding universe.

Upon hearing this, the four Human Immortals and Great Demons' faces turned slightly ferocious.

But.

Boom!!

Almost at the same instant!

Four sword beams, as if capable of destroying the heavens and earth, suddenly burst through the void and pierced the four Golden Phoenix Great Demons occupying the four directions!

"It's a trap!!"

Caught off guard by the sudden change.

A Golden Phoenix Great Demon roared.

Then his body was completely engulfed by one of the sword beams!

The other three immediately retreated, simultaneously deploying their methods to try and extinguish the sword beam.

Boom!

Thunderclaps sounded in the sky.

Soon after, the sky turned dark red, and blood rain began to fall.

The Human Immortal Demise Phenomenon!

After just one exchange, a Human Immortal had fallen!

Seeing this, the three Golden Phoenix Great Demons who had reacted in time and retreated were filled with shock and anger!

"Hiding and running away is no skill, come out and face me!"

Even now, they still couldn't believe that Qin Zheng had made a move.

And just then, Qin Zheng's figure took a step forward and appeared in front of one of the Golden Phoenix Great Demons.

"A mere Dharmic Body dares to intervene! Die!"

The Golden Phoenix Great Demon's face showed shock and anger.

He immediately raised a hand, using one hand to deal with the sword beam and the other to slap Qin Zheng.

With the power of a Human Immortal, the palm strike seemed to tear through the void, carrying infinite might.

However, the Golden Phoenix Great Demon's expectation of blasting the human in front of him to pieces did not come true.

His palm was caught by a large hand.

How could this be?

Seeing this, his eyes widened in shock.

A Dharmic Body had actually blocked his palm strike?!

Dividing his attention, the sword beam instantly pierced his body.

"Pffft!"

The sword beam wildly ravaged his flesh.

He immediately snapped back to his senses and tried to force the sword beam out of his body.

But just then.

Qin Zheng's other hand formed a sword finger, instantly piercing the void and appearing before the Golden Phoenix Great Demon's forehead.

Then.

Boom!

A terrifying sword beam surged out from the sword finger.

The Golden Phoenix Great Demon's head instantly turned into nothingness under the wash of the Immortal Slaying Sword beam.

Boom!

In the universe, thunderclaps sounded again.

It meant that another Human Immortal had fallen!
