Hao Ren stepped on two sword-shaped energy beams, using the speed of a Nascent Soul cultivator to rush out from the mountain base.

Over eight thousand fine lightning bolts simultaneously struck towards Venerable Spirit Martial Arts.

If Venerable Spirit Martial Arts' ten heavenly thunder bombs were compressed top-grade heavenly thunders capable of killing Nascent Soul stage cultivators, then Hao Ren's over eight thousand fragmented heavenly thunders could pound a Nascent Soul cultivator into nothing but dust!

Venerable Spirit Martial Arts opened his eyes in shock; he never expected Hao Ren to be able to launch such powerful lightning.

The soles of his feet appeared with a bright red giant axe, which was his life-bound treasure! The giant axe carried Venerable Spirit Martial Arts as he desperately flew towards the sixth layer of heaven.

"Draw lightning!"

Hao Ren released a sword-shaped energy beam into the high sky.

Dozens of heavenly thunders fell from the sky!

Eight thousand bolts of lightning below and dozens more in the high sky—Venerable Spirit Martial Arts had nowhere to hide!

The golden light of Heavenly Transformation Seal暴漲，Venerable Spirit Martial Arts poured all his spiritual energy into it.

Achieving cultivation for a millennium with several life-and-death moments, he had never truly felt the threat of death until today!

His Nascent Soul stage experience told him that this time he wouldn't be able to dodge!

Bang bang bang...

The dozen heavenly thunders Hao Ren drew down struck Venerable Spirit Martial Arts' Heavenly Transformation Seal.

The front side of the rapidly expanded seal emitted an image of a phoenix, which was swiftly shattered by the heavenly thunders. The seal itself was then reduced to fragments!

Could a hastily activated treasure withstand the power of heavenly thunders

A red glow rose from Venerable Spirit Martial Arts' feet, enveloping him.

He prepared to activate a secret technique and use half his essence blood to perform the Blood Teleportation Technique, instantly moving millions of miles away.

If he successfully escaped, his cultivation stage would at least drop from Nascent Soul Perfection to Initial Stage, but that was better than dying here!

Crack...

Venerable Spirit Martial Arts' ten fingers shattered, spraying blood into the spherical red glow.

Whizz whizz whizz...

The fragmented lightning bolts chasing Venerable Spirit Martial Arts's feet suddenly and rapidly faded away.

Hao Ren's body couldn't sustain the continuous use of millennia-level cultivation techniques and automatically sealed itself!

Lingwu Ancestor stood dumbfounded in the distance, hesitated for a few seconds, then suddenly burst out laughing. "Divine will! It is indeed divine will!"

He looked around; within this thousand-mile radius, he was still the strongest!

Momentarily, it seemed like he heard a woman's voice, but after careful observation, there wasn't any trace of a woman.

Hao Ren exhausted his spiritual energy and fell straight into the valley.

Lingwu Ancestor’s red giant axe hovered beside Hao Ren's body, while his hands were already stained with blood.

Another instant later, he would have to expel half of his essence blood to escape!

"Cousin Uncle!" Duan Yao stood on the Purple-Blue Sword and flew towards Lingwu Ancestor as she watched Hao Ren fall into the valley.

The array formation at Mystic Peak had been broken, all mists had dissipated. From a high vantage point, Duan Yao and Lingwu Ancestor could see everything in the valley clearly.

"Hao Ren!" Zhao Yanzi and Xie Yujia raised their heads to call out together.

Whoosh…

Bai Xia flew around once, catching Hao Ren.

The cultivators from the three small sects nearby fell silent.

Even a Core Formation-stage cultivator couldn't escape an Essence Soul stage powerhouse; they had already killed dozens of Core Formation-stage disciples of the Sky Mountain Sect. The outcome was obvious.

The narrowly escaped Lingwu Ancestor slowly cast his gaze into the valley.

One Mystic Sun Shield destroyed, one Heavenly Transforming Seal broken, ten Heaven Thunder Orbs used…

Additionally, over sixty Core Formation-stage disciples died, and another two hundred were left as cripples—equivalent to losing nearly two hundred effective Core Formation-stage disciples.

The Sky Mountain Sect suffered a heavy blow!

"Yao'er, take a good look. How many disciples did your cousin Uncle sacrifice to save you" Lingwu Ancestor pointed towards the valley and said in a depressed tone.

Duan Yao gritted her teeth; her expression was sorrowful.

The Sky Mountain Sect had tens of thousands of cultivators, most of whom she didn't recognize. However, among these Core Formation-stage disciples, there were some who she did know.

"Cousin Uncle will give you one last chance to atone for your sins—kill all the cultivators in the valley!"

The first half of Lingwu Ancestor’s sentence was calm and steady. But when he said the last four words, his voice suddenly became heavy.

Duan Yao jumped in fright, her body trembling slightly.

Luo to the valley, Li Hao raised his hands, and sword lights flashed out of his body again, forming an umbrella-like shield to protect Zhao Yanzǐ and Xiè Yujia.

However, with his realm falling from the peak of Gan level back to the upper Shēn level, he could only release 320 intermittent sword lights.

Duanyáo's face turned deathly pale as her Purple-Green Treasure Sword flew into her palm hesitantly watching Hao Ren and the others.

"Yao'er, how many people's bones did your great uncle step on to reach such a realm today If it weren’t for his low realm, he would have killed him."

Lingwu Ancestor lightly tapped Duanyáo’s back from behind.

Duanyáo gripped the Purple-Green Treasure Sword tightly and suddenly dropped into the valley.

Whizz!

The spirit arrows that Xiè Yujia had been holding back shot towards Duanyáo.

Duanyáo’s Purple-Green Treasure Sword slashed left and right, breaking these two spirit arrows. Hao Ren's 320 sword lights swiftly activated, like a hundred arrows firing towards Duanyáo.

Hao Ren seemed to have heard Zhen Fei speak just now but didn’t see her; he couldn't guess if she was actually here or not.

"Yao'er, did you see that If you don’t act, others will. In this world, there’s no such thing as cherishing the beauty of women; only mutual slaughter!" Lingwu Ancestor's thunderous voice reverberated in the sky.

Duanyáo saw Hao Ren’s determined expression and the 320 sword lights rushing towards him. She gritted her teeth, activating the North Star Sword Technique to disperse the first batch of sword lights that were charging at her.

That's right; he won’t cherish the beauty of women—I’m his enemy! Duanyáo hardened her resolve as the Purple-Green Treasure Sword emitted waves of blue light, and she simultaneously unleashed the Three Stars (Tian Su, Tian Jī, and Tiānshū).

Zhào Zhuózi took out a Sealing Spirit Talisman in his hand and swished it towards Duanyáo.

These Sealing Spirit Talismans were made by Xiè Yujia for Hao Ren but hadn’t been handed over to him yet as he had rushed off. Thus, Zhào Zhuózi was holding them.

Talismans are different from magical treasures; they can be activated with enough spirit energy and don't require a specific attribute of spirit energy. The effects produced depend on the characteristics of each talisman.

For example, cultivators with Wood Spirit Roots could use Fire Talismans to shoot fireballs, while those with Earth Spirit Roots could use Water Talismans for ice arrows. Therefore, talismans are often used by lower-level cultivators who don’t have magical treasures as a means of defense.

Zhào Zhuózi, without any weapon, unleashed the Sealing Spirit Talismans one after another using his own spirit energy; it was extremely powerful. However, while she could fire several in a second, it took Xiè Yujia several minutes to draw and imbue each talisman with spirit energy.

The hundred plus talismans accumulated overnight were fired off by Zhào Zhuózi in just over 20 seconds—this was even under the assumption that Xiè Yujia’s speed in making talismans was relatively fast. Who else would waste so many talismans!

Sword lights, spirit arrows, and talisman effects rained down on Duanyáo.

Before she had even landed, Duanyáo was already flustered. Among all these attacks, the Sealing Spirit Talismans were what she feared most.

If hit by a Sealing Spirit Talisman, her entire body’s spirit energy would freeze, and all sword lights and spirit arrows would penetrate her body!

Puuh, puuh, puhpuh!

Hao Ren's three sword lights pierced Duanyáo’s shoulder; Xiè Yujia's one spirit arrow also embedded itself into Duanyáo’s thigh!

Bright red blood spurted out from her wound, instantly staining the emerald green blouse she was wearing!

The sight of them three fighting with grim determination made Duan Yao feel miserable and aggrieved. Being held captive in the valley seemed to have been the most tender moments!

They gave her water to drink, food to eat, and even treated her wounds!

"Yao'er, have you seen clearly now! If you don't kill them, they will surely kill you!" The Spirit Martial Ancestor floated high in the air and shouted again.

He knew that Duan Yao was no match for them three, but he wanted her to personally taste what it felt like to be shot dead!

Kill!

Duan Yao landed on the grassy ground of the valley. Her Purple and Azure Treasure Sword slashed out five sword petals towards Hao Ren.

Her martial arts foundation was better than Zhao Yanzi's, this Purple and Azure Treasure Sword being her magical treasure made it even more powerful as she had a higher realm compared to Zhao Yanzi.

Hao Ren condensed his sword light into a longsword that slightly trembled and deflected Duan Yao’s Purple and Azure Treasure Sword away.

Old injuries ruptured, new ones bleeding, Duan Yao could not withstand the attack. Just when she was a half step slower than Hao Ren, her neck was already met with his sword tip.

She stared at Hao Ren without moving an inch.

Hao Ren's sword could turn into sword light and pierce through her throat even if he didn’t move his arm.

The time-space seemed to freeze. Through the distance of a sword, Duan Yao clearly saw the cold glint in Hao Ren’s eyes.

"Yao'er, today if it weren't for Uncle Ancestor here, you would have lost your life! Still haven’t woken up"

The Spirit Martial Ancestor shot a beam of red light from high above the sky.

Boom!

Hao Ren's colorful sword was shattered by the descending red beam.

Then another pillar-like beam of intense red light descended towards Hao Ren’s head.

"Yao'er, you are overly aggressive but lack in killing intent! Your sword skills aren’t as sharp as before, could it be that you've fallen for someone If so, Uncle Ancestor will sever your thoughts!"

The intense red light violently sent Duan Yao ten meters away and then crashed down toward Hao Ren.

"Huh huh huh... I see why the little fellow is so intent on killing. There’s someone with a stronger kill instinct than him."

A crisp, melodious voice suddenly enveloped the entire valley. The sound was not loud but clearly reached every cultivator's ears in the valley as if it were whispering softly into their ears.

A seductive figure appeared on the western peak.

Dressed in a light green robe and holding an umbrella, she seemed to have been standing there from ages ago as the wind blew past her.should accept them," Zhao Hongyu said."Thank you, Your Majesty." Xie Yujia smiled sweetly and put the box in her own ring.During this period of time, she had also seen many diagrams of spirit herbs, b...
