127: A catastrophe has come to heaven and earth!
Year 23!
After returning to the Sword Pavilion, you once again went to the mountain peak to Cultivate the Divine Ability—Heaven Slaying!
Thanks to your previous Cultivation experience, you were able to capture the Sword Dao Law and Sword Intent at a much faster pace this time.
Early Year 24!
You finally condensed all the Sword Intent into Sword Essence within your Dantian!
Next, it was the most crucial moment; you needed to confront the darkest Heart Demon deep within your heart.
You recalled that the last time the Heart Demon appeared, your Dao Heart was unstable, and you almost allowed Weird Insects to exploit a weakness.
Seven days later!
Your consciousness entered a dark space.
Tap-tap-tap!
You saw a figure slowly emerge from the darkness. Upon seeing their face, your eyes narrowed tightly.
You saw the Heart Demon transform into your likeness and appear before you, yet your heart remained undisturbed.
You directly struck at the Heart Demon with intense Sword Intent, and ultimately, the Heart Demon was slain by your Sword Intent.
Clang! Clang! Clang!
In an instant, the mountain peak where you were and the entire Sword Pavilion emitted bursts of sword cries.
The sword cries resonated throughout the Sword Pavilion, and everyone was drawn by the unusual phenomenon in the sky.
At this moment, you slowly opened your eyes and exhaled a mouthful of turbid Qi.
"The first layer of Heaven Slaying has been successfully Cultivated!"
You saw everyone looking at you curiously, and you gave an embarrassed smile.
You explained to them that you were just Cultivating.
"I never expected you to Cultivate such a profound Sword Art Divine Ability, capable of causing such unusual phenomena."
Xuanyuan Tianji had the broadest vision and immediately recognized which Divine Ability you were Cultivating.
You hadn't expected Cultivating Heaven Slaying to cause such unusual phenomena. You changed the subject and asked Zi You about the movements of the Purple Firmament Holy Land.
"Little Junior Brother, if you hadn't mentioned it, I would have forgotten!"
"Not long ago, the Purple Firmament Holy Land announced that they would hold a banquet in half a year to celebrate the return of Blood Demon Heavenly Venerate!"
Upon hearing this news, the corners of your mouth couldn't help but curve upwards.
Zi You and Jiang Yang also looked at you with complex expressions; they hadn't expected things to unfold exactly as you had said.
"Half a year later, huh..."
You calculated the time; the Great Tribulation of Heaven and Earth would also arrive in approximately half a year.
Knowing this, you realized that this trip to the Purple Firmament Holy Land would allow you to display your full abilities without too many concerns.
You led everyone back into the Sword Pavilion Grand Hall. You told them that the Great Tribulation of Heaven and Earth was approaching in half a year, and your actions would commence after your return from the Purple Firmament Holy Land.
Immediately after, you told Zi You and Jiang Yang that you were about to depart for Central Continent to rendezvous with Zhuge Qing.
The next day!
You left the Sword Pavilion and headed towards Central Continent.
Three months later, you successfully rendezvoused with Zhuge Qing in a Secret Realm in the Eastern Region.
Upon meeting Zhuge Qing, you were surprised to find that Qin Yang had already Broken Through to the Early Stage of the Mahayana Realm, without any signs of being backlashed by the Weird Insects.
Seeing this, you finally breathed a sigh of relief.
Two months later!
As the time drew nearer, you noticed that many noble families and Sects were already preparing generous gifts to head towards the Purple Firmament Holy Land.
You ultimately decided, as before, to blend in with the Great Zhou Imperial Dynasty's entourage and travel to the Purple Firmament Holy Land.
The four great Families of the Eastern Region were still quite powerful, and fearing premature exposure of your identity, you chose the relatively weaker Great Zhou Imperial Dynasty.
One month later!
You successfully entered the Purple Firmament Holy Land.
The banquet gradually began with the speech of the Elder of the Purple Firmament Holy Land.
Zhuge Qing and Jiang Yang remained at the banquet to attract attention, while you and Zi You used the Great Void Art to go and steal treasures.
As time passed, it quickly approached noon.
Once noon arrived, it was time for all the Sect forces to present their gifts.
At this moment, you still hadn't found what you were looking for.
"Dragon's Whisker Immortal!"
Suddenly, you heard Zi You transmit a message to you; Zi You told you she had found a Dragon's Whisker Immortal.
Upon hearing that it was a Dragon's Whisker Immortal, you were greatly shocked.
One must know that the Dragon's Whisker Immortal was a spiritual item even more precious than Dragon's Whisker Grass. Although its rank was the same as the nine underworld soul grass, it was much more valuable than the nine underworld soul grass.
You had previously seen a ninth-grade Pill Formula in the Tianji Pavilion, and the most important medicinal ingredient in it was the Dragon's Whisker Immortal.
"Who's there?"
After hearing about the Dragon's Whisker Immortal, you fell into a daze. And just as you were in a daze, you forgot that it was already time for the gift presentation, and your act of stealing treasures was instantly exposed.
"Someone is stealing spiritual items!!!"
This voice was extremely loud, instantly spreading throughout the entire Purple Firmament Holy Land.
Zhuge Qing and Jiang Yang, who were at the banquet, instantly grew solemn upon hearing this voice.
The other forces at the banquet were even somewhat incredulous.
"Stealing things?"
"Who is so bold as to dare to steal things in the Purple Firmament Holy Land?"
"Yeah, who doesn't want to live, rushing to their death, right!"
In the pavilion, Blood Demon Heavenly Venerate's expression instantly darkened upon hearing this.
He hadn't expected that someone would come to his banquet to steal things just as he had recovered to the Tribulation Realm. This was not only a slap to the face of the Purple Firmament Holy Land but also a slap to his, Blood Demon Heavenly Venerate's, face.
Blood Demon Heavenly Venerate stood up and instantly appeared beside the person who had just spoken.
"You said someone was stealing spiritual items, who is it?"
Blood Demon Heavenly Venerate looked in the direction he pointed, and the next moment, Blood Demon Heavenly Venerate's pupils constricted slightly, followed by a smile appearing on his face.
"Hahaha!"
"Brat! I haven't even come to find you yet, and you've actually delivered yourself to my doorstep!"
Buzz!!!
Boom!!!
Suddenly, the heavens and earth emitted bursts of buzzing sounds. Everyone looked up into the Void Realm, and even Blood Demon Heavenly Venerate was attracted by this commotion.
However, very quickly, Blood Demon Heavenly Venerate's gaze locked onto you once again.
"You wouldn't think you can still run away, would you?"
Originally, you were still worried about when the Great Tribulation would arrive, but after seeing the commotion just now, you instead looked at Blood Demon Heavenly Venerate with a relaxed expression.
"Run?"
"Who said I was going to run?"
"You wouldn't think you can really kill me, would you?"
Seeing your confident demeanor, Blood Demon Heavenly Venerate subconsciously looked around.
"What? Your two ant companions are here too?"
"My cultivation has already recovered to the Tribulation Realm. Do you think your two companions can still save you?"
You shook your head, a disdainful expression on your face, pointing towards the Void Realm.
"Not them, it's this!"
Boom! Boom! Boom!
The next moment, thunder roared, and the Void Realm vibrated violently.
Blood Demon Heavenly Venerate only then realized something was amiss and looked up into the Void Realm.
"What is that?"
