785: The Sword King takes action and the Qing Phoenix appears
Boom!
The eight desolations halberd slashed fiercely at the Star Ruler Sword. Amidst a booming sound, the top-grade dao artifact, the Star Ruler Sword, was actually snapped in two by a single strike.
The powerful force sent Jian Canglan's body flying, and the arm he used to hold the sword was shaken into a bloody mist.
"That Star Ruler Sword was actually snapped?"
"The Star Ruler Sword is a top-grade dao artifact; how could it not withstand this halberd?"
"This halberd is covered in rust and lacks any spiritual or Dao rhythm. It feels like just an ordinary halberd."
The onlookers saw the eight desolations halberd snap the Star Ruler Sword, and their eyes couldn't help but reveal looks of astonishment.
A top-grade dao artifact is considered a valuable weapon and is extremely rare. No one expected it to be snapped like this.
Ye Chuzhi stared at Xie Weilou. "The halberd in his hand looks like a common object, but the halberd technique he just used..."
She subconsciously looked toward the Marquis of Eight Desolations.
At this moment, she seemed to understand what the Marquis of Eight Desolations meant earlier.
The technique Xie Weilou just displayed was precisely the Eight Desolations Halberd Technique, a technique created by her second uncle in his early years.
This person indeed has a fated connection with her second uncle!
The Marquis of Eight Desolations smiled faintly. "For a true powerhouse, even holding a blade of grass can sever the sun, moon, and stars. However... the halberd in his hand is indeed not simple. It was forged from the essence of ten thousand Daos of Xuanhuang. Although it lacks a spirit, it excels in weight and is indestructible, possessing the effect of breaking all laws with a single weapon."
As he spoke, his gaze toward Xie Weilou was filled with approval. No matter how extraordinary the eight desolations halberd was, it needed a suitable wielder.
Clearly, the young man before him was extremely well-suited for the eight desolations halberd. His Physique was obviously very powerful, and only by holding this halberd could its true power be unleashed.
Ye Chuzhi looked at the Marquis of Eight Desolations with a faint smile. "Second Uncle sure knows a lot!"
"..."
The Marquis of Eight Desolations gave a wry smile and said no more.
He had only given a rough explanation just now. In truth, this halberd was far more extraordinary than what he had said.
Back then, to forge this halberd, he had spent a full sixty years.
The Materials used to forge this halberd included not only the essence of Xuanhuang but also a piece of Primordial Immortal Gold.
Primordial Immortal Gold was no ordinary material. One must know that the Eastern Wasteland Dynasty's human emperor pagoda and human emperor sword were both forged from Primordial Immortal Gold.
Back then, he had exhausted all his efforts to refine the eight desolations halberd, but unfortunately, he still failed to manifest an artifact spirit within it.
Later, in that mysterious sea region, he obtained the fortune of a flood dragon transforming into a Dragon. He left the eight desolations halberd there as a way to balance the Karma.
He never expected that today, someone would appear before his eyes holding the eight desolations halberd. Perhaps this was fate.
Boom!
Xie Weilou charged at Jian Canglan once more, thrusting the halberd toward the other's chest.
The stone garment on Jian Canglan's body didn't look simple. He wanted to see if he could shatter it with a single strike.
"Not good..."
Seeing Xie Weilou pounce toward him, Jian Canglan's eyes filled with panic. He subconsciously tried to dodge, but it was simply too late.
Bang!
Xie Weilou's eight desolations halberd slammed violently into Jian Canglan's chest. That stone garment instantly shattered, unable to withstand the might of the halberd.
"Ah..."
Jian Canglan's chest burst open. Blood and bone fragments sprayed everywhere as his body was sent flying back like a cannonball.
"Die!"
Xie Weilou suddenly hurled the eight desolations halberd. The long halberd turned into a residual blur, letting out a sonic boom as it instantly pierced through Jian Canglan's chest, causing a geyser of blood to erupt.
"..."
Jian Canglan's eyes widened. He subconsciously glanced at his chest, where a hideous hole had appeared. A power of annihilation flooded his body, continuously tearing apart his body and Divine Soul.
Xie Weilou appeared out of thin air behind Jian Canglan. He casually gripped the eight desolations halberd and said indifferently, "Three moves. Not one more, not one less."
"I... actually..."
Jian Canglan struggled to speak, but before he could finish, his body suddenly exploded into a mist of blood, dying tragically on the spot.
"Three moves! He actually killed Jian Canglan at the Guixu Peak in just three moves. Looking at him, he clearly did it with ease, as if he hadn't even used his full strength. Truly terrifying."
"This boy's combat power can rival the various Saints. He is a Prodigy!"
"Does such a Heavens Proud Son really have no great power behind him? I don't believe it for a second."
Everyone stared at Xie Weilou with solemn expressions.
This youth had emerged out of nowhere with a mysterious background. Generally speaking, people like this always have a great power backing them.
Otherwise, how could one reach such heights through solitary bitter cultivation?
"Too strong..."
Yao Ling's eyes showed a trace of wariness.
Fortunately, the Hall Master of Law Enforcement had appeared earlier. Otherwise, she estimated she would have been slaughtered by Xie Weilou.
Yao Youxuan looked toward a certain direction and thought to himself, 'Senior Brother, someone like this should be able to catch your eye, right?'
"Impudent brat!"
The Sword King's gaze turned sharp as he stood up instantly. His pressure erupted, and a fierce Sword Qi suddenly blasted toward Xie Weilou.
"Heh! Can't hold back anymore?"
Xie Weilou's smile was sinister, and his bronze bracelet flickered with an eerie light.
"..."
Yin Jiuyou, Yao Youxuan, and the Eight Desolations King's brows twitched. Their auras suddenly erupted as they prepared to strike.
"Is it appropriate for someone in the Creation Realm to attack a young man?"
Just then, an indifferent voice rang out from the sky. A grey Void Finger print manifested and instantly struck down.
Buzz!
As the Void Finger print descended, the Sword King's Sword Qi was dispersed. The plaza instantly cracked, and the Sword King was even blasted back a hundred meters by the powerful force.
"Pfft!"
After the Sword King stabilized himself, he spat out a mouthful of blood. He looked toward the sky in horror. "Void Finger... Someone from the Lin family..."
"Lin family?"
Xie Weilou narrowed his eyes and looked up.
Boom!
In the sky, a middle-aged man wearing an ancient long robe appeared. He stood with his hands behind his back, looking down at the Sword King.
The Sword King's pupils shrank. "The Lin family's Venerable, Lin Zhan!"
Lin Zhan—this was a famous figure in the Eastern Wasteland. His cultivation had already surpassed the Creation Realm, making him an existence on par with the Marquis of Eight Desolations.
The Sword King said in a deep voice, "Venerable Lin Zhan, what is the meaning of this?"
"..."
Lin Zhan said nothing, merely stepping aside to clear a path.
Boom!
A massive rift instantly appeared in space, and a woman dressed in a cyan dress walked out.
The woman was tall with graceful curves. Her jet-black hair cascaded down to her waist, and her body was shrouded in ripples of rosy light. Her Dao rhythm was naturally formed and profoundly mysterious.
Her face was peerlessly beautiful, possessing an unmatched elegance. Her skin was like congealed jade, and three mysterious Dao runes were etched between her brows. Her phoenix eyes were cold and clear, like a pure world-cleansing lotus.
The newcomer was none other than Lin Qinghuang.
"Huh! Who is this woman?"
"I know almost everyone in the Lin family's younger generation, but I don't recognize her."
"I heard a mysterious Young Clan Leader returned to the Lin family. Could it be her?"
Everyone looked at Lin Qinghuang in the void with suspicion and surprise. If the newcomer was indeed that Young Clan Leader, then she was no simple person.
"The Lin Clan's Young Clan Leader?"
The Longevity Saintess, Imperial Abyss, and Fu Ruoxi sized up Lin Qinghuang. To have a Lin family Venerable step aside for her, this woman was likely that Young Clan Leader.
Being women themselves, they were curious about what made this Lin Clan Young Clan Leader so extraordinary.
Lin Qinghuang looked down coldly at the Sword King. "You... deserve to be executed!"
