229: The 22nd Divine Edge!

Aside from the actions of the Purple Dragon Society, several other forces outside Huanglong Valley also began to take action!

The reason was simple: Huanglong Valley had surrendered too quickly, merging completely into the Wu Kingdom with almost no resistance.

What this represented behind the scenes went without saying.

The suddenly emerged Martial Emperor of the Wu Kingdom.

His strength must have been enough to completely crush Huanglong Valley's two Peak Core Shattering Realm Martial Artists, which was why Huanglong Valley surrendered so quickly.

The forces surrounding Huanglong Valley were no fools either; with just a bit of thought, they could deduce this reason.

For a time, undercurrents surged among the forces within a radius of thousands of kilometers around Huanglong Valley!

They dispatched countless spies, and some even personally set out, entering the territory of Huanglong Valley,

to gather information on that Wu Kingdom Martial Emperor,

hoping to obtain precise information to facilitate their subsequent decisions.

In the skies above Huanglong Valley, Zhang Yang's mind was still immersed between heaven and earth, his comprehension of the Laws rising rapidly,

and as his comprehension of the Laws rose, his sky-blocking Dharma Image grew increasingly heavy and solid, emitting an ever-more terrifying aura!

Two days later, a streak of sword light shot over from the distance!

It stopped a hundred miles away from the Huanglong Valley headquarters, revealing the figure of Ye Guhong.

At this moment, with a grave expression, he looked at the terrifying, sky-blocking Dharma Image above Huanglong Valley, his Battle Intent surging within him!

"So strong! The pressure emitted by this Dharma Image is terrifying, even a sliver stronger than my own!"

"Could this Martial Emperor also be a Late Stage Dharma Image Martial Saint Realm expert!"

Thinking of this, Ye Guhong's heart grew even more fervent,

sparring with a Martial Saint expert of the same Realm as him would surely yield immense benefits!

He had not expected this Martial Emperor to be so powerful.

Based on this Dharma Image alone, he determined that this Martial Emperor's strength was not below his, and might even surpass him.

It truly shocked him somewhat.

Ye Guhong had originally thought that this suddenly appeared Martial Emperor's cultivation would at most be at the Early Stage of the Dharma Image Martial Saint Realm, but he hadn't expected him to be this strong!

Meanwhile, in the skies above Huanglong Valley, Zhang Yang slowly opened his eyes and looked toward Ye Guhong's position in the distance!

His body and mind merged with the heavens and earth to comprehend the Laws, but he wasn't just comprehending.

Under these circumstances, his perception of the world had reached an exaggerated level,

almost merging into one with heaven and earth. Even though they were separated by ten thousand miles, he had already sensed Ye Guhong's arrival!

"A Martial Saint Realm expert? It seems the commotion I've made recently has been a bit too big."

Zhang Yang pondered in his mind as he sensed the presence ten thousand miles away.

Although a Martial Saint expert had come to his door, he didn't feel any nervousness.

After all, with his current strength, he had almost no rivals within the Dharma Form Martial Saint Realm.

Even if those three top-tier Fusion Realm Martial Saints came in person,

he would not fear them in the slightest!

Even if a Fusion Realm Martial Saint came, they would only suffer defeat before him!

Shaking his head slightly, Zhang Yang withdrew his sky-blocking Dharma Image into his body,

and then took a step forward, swiftly rushing toward the Martial Saint Realm expert he had sensed.

A distance of ten thousand miles was crossed in an instant. A moment later, Zhang Yang arrived not far from Ye Guhong.

Zhang Yang sized up the Martial Saint Realm expert nearby, comparing him with the information he had obtained, confirming that this was indeed the president of the Purple Dragon Society, Ye Guhong.

At the same time, various pieces of information about Ye Guhong flashed through his mind,

and almost instantly, Zhang Yang deduced his reason for coming here.

"Shall we fight up there?" Zhang Yang proposed, looking at Ye Guhong not far away.

Hearing Zhang Yang's proposal, Ye Guhong's eyes lit up. He hadn't expected this Martial Emperor to match his personality so well!

"Great! Let's fight up there!"

Ye Guhong laughed heartily, and immediately, his entire person soared toward the higher heavens.

Seeing this, Zhang Yang also rose into the air.

Ascending all the way, the two passed through the clouds, going higher and higher, the air gradually thinning.

Fortunately, neither of them needed air to survive, so it did not affect them at all!

After a while, both of them stopped.

"Fighting here shouldn't affect the Tianwu Continent!" Zhang Yang said softly, looking at their current position.

On the other side, Ye Guhong looked at Zhang Yang not far away with a grave expression.

With a thought, a precious sword appeared in his hand, its entire body flowing with light, incomparably sharp.

If an ordinary Martial Artist were to take a single glance at this sword, they would probably be blinded by its sword light!

Those with insufficient sword Dao Realms might even have their minds severed just by looking at this sword!

With an excited expression, Ye Guhong looked at Zhang Yang and shouted loudly, "Watch out!"

As his voice fell, Ye Guhong charged forward with his sword, a slash of sword light seeming to split heaven and earth as it swept toward Zhang Yang.

Observing this move, the brilliant sword light entering his eyes, Zhang Yang couldn't help but nod slightly,

this person's sword Dao Realm was indeed extraordinary; however, compared to him, it was still far too lacking!

Long ago, in his Martial Scripture, there also existed the Seven Sword Techniques of Heaven, Earth, Mortal, God, Ghost, Demon, and Immortal,

at that time, his swordplay had already entered the Dao.

Afterward, he had fused all techniques into one furnace, creating the Four Books of Heart, Body, Technique, and Cultivation!

"Given my current comprehension of this world's Laws, it should be enough to execute those seven sword techniques!" Zhang Yang thought to himself.

He had long wanted to combine the Four Books of Heart, Body, Technique, and Cultivation, which he had created in the Xuanhuang World, with the Laws of this world,

but because his comprehension of the Laws was insufficient, he had delayed putting it on the agenda.

Now, his cultivation had reached the Late Stage of the Dharma Image Martial Saint Realm, and he had gained a certain understanding of the Laws of heaven and earth,

enabling him to convert a portion of the four arts of Mind, Body, and Technique into a form that better conformed to the Laws of this world!

"Let's begin, then!"

"Snowfall · Tianyang · Divine Edge!"

Zhang Yang's Dharma Image emerged, enveloping his entire body. At this moment, his Dharma Image was extremely compressed, and he brought his fingers together like a sword!

The Sword of God among the Seven Sword Techniques of Heaven, Earth, Mortal, God, Ghost, Demon, and Immortal was unleashed!

In the next instant!

Heaven and earth underwent a complete change!

With a stroke of the sword, divine intent permeated the air, and the Concept of the Sword of God dominated this piece of heaven and earth!

Ye Guhong's earth-shattering sword light instantly froze!

Even his thinking was impacted by this earth-shattering divine intent. The sword Dao he had cultivated for many years,

and his Sword Intent were like ants before this earth-shattering divine intent.

"Impossible! Move for me!"

Ye Guhong roared in his heart, the countless spiritual yuan in his body erupting frantically, his Divine Sense and Dharma Image surging and exploding without reservation,

attempting to move within this heaven and earth enveloped by divine intent, but it was to no avail!

In the distance, Zhang Yang gently flicked his finger, and a Divine Edge swept toward Ye Guhong!

Under the shroud of the divine intent, Ye Guhong's thoughts almost ground to a halt, his mind filled with the Concept of Zhang Yang's move,

at the moment the Divine Edge reached his body!

Ye Guhong let out another roar of rage!

All the power in his body erupted at this instant, and an extremely powerful Sword Intent seemed to break through the shroud of divine intent,

allowing Ye Guhong to move slightly in this nearly frozen heaven and earth!

"Oh? Not bad, to actually break through the suppression of my divine intent, even if only for a moment."

Seeing this, Zhang Yang also nodded slightly. It should be noted that his Sword of God was originally of an extraordinary grade,

now, after modifying it into a form that better conformed to the Laws of this world,

although its power had decreased somewhat due to his level of Law comprehension,

it was still not something a Late Stage Dharma Image Martial Saint Realm Martial Artist like him could withstand.

For Ye Guhong to break through the suppression even for a moment was already highly commendable!
