108: Get out, or die!
Heavenly Sword Canyon.
At this moment, around the canyon, some Cultivators were sitting cross-legged.
Their gazes were fixed intently on the Sword Qi permeating the canyon, seemingly hoping to gain some insight.
And that was indeed the case.
The Sword Qi in the Heavenly Sword Canyon was actually confined to a specific area.
Although extremely dangerous, as long as one did not approach it, there would be no life-threatening peril.
Because of this, many Cultivators who Cultivated the Sword Dao would come here to gain insight from the Sword Qi when they couldn't find an Opportunity elsewhere.
Many people had previously greatly increased their Sword Dao strength by comprehending this Sword Qi, such as:
Gaining Sword Intent!
Improving their Sword Intent!
Or even advancing their sword momentum or sword domain!
Therefore, many Cultivators, after arriving at the Xuanhong Secret Realm, would often make a detour here after circling the Secret Realm once.
Heavenly Sword Canyon also became the most popular of the three great Forbidden Grounds in the Xuanhong Secret Realm.
Not long after Chu Yuan separated from Chu Xuan Ning, he heard about the existence of the Heavenly Sword Canyon.
Hearing about such a place, he naturally had to come and see it.
Thus, he spent several days and finally arrived here.
He just didn't know if his Comprehension Ability would allow him to gain anything here.
Seeing his arrival, many people's expressions slightly changed.
"Why is he here?"
"Wearing a black mask and holding a mysterious Yao Beast whose features cannot be clearly seen—it seems the dark demon sword fiend has arrived!"
"I heard he's someone who kills without batting an eye. Will he attack us?"
"What is there to fear? There are many Cultivators here. Are we afraid of him?"
"That's right. We have many Late Stage Spirit Crystal Realm Cultivators alone. Even if he is strong, how strong can he be?"
"..."
Seeing Chu Yuan arrive, many people showed vigilance and started whispering amongst themselves.
However, Chu Yuan showed no reaction to this, acting as if he hadn't seen them.
They were nothing more than small pieces of trash with pathetic combat power; he didn't put them in his eyes.
If they didn't court death, so be it. But if they insisted on seeking death... Chu Yuan didn't dwell on it, finding a spot and sitting down cross-legged.
Feeling the fierce Sword Qi rushing toward him from the nearby Heavenly Sword Canyon, he was secretly surprised.
Very strong!
He could feel a terrifying sense of threat from this Sword Qi, the kind that could take his life.
"Chu Yuan, this place makes even me feel a significant crisis. It is very dangerous inside."
At this moment, Little White also spoke softly, saying with a solemn expression, "Although this Sword Qi cannot instantly kill a God Realm existence, it can cause minor damage, especially if the quantity is too great..."
"Furthermore, I feel that the deeper one goes, the more terrifying the power of this Sword Qi might become."
Hearing this, Chu Yuan's pupils slightly contracted, and he looked solemnly toward the Heavenly Sword Canyon.
This Xuanhong Secret Realm truly is special!
Currently, there are already three Forbidden Grounds that he knows of, and who knows how many more are hidden?
He took a deep breath, stroked her fur, and said softly, "We will be able to leave soon. Let's just wait here."
Little White slightly nodded, obediently lying in his arms and closing her eyes as if napping.
Chu Yuan was just about to calm his mind and gain insight from the Sword Qi, but suddenly his brows slightly furrowed.
"What are they coming over for?"
He slightly turned his head, his gaze cold as he looked at the dozen or so people approaching. "Leave quickly, or don't blame me for being merciless."
Hearing this, the dozen people paused in mid-air.
The person leading them was the young man who had stood behind Xing Wuxiu of the Xuantian Sect that day!
Behind him were several Xuantian Sect Disciples, as well as some Cultivators whose affiliations were unknown.
The group looked toward the leading young man, seemingly awaiting his instruction.
The young man slightly nodded, looked at Chu Yuan, and spoke in a sharp voice: "Your Excellency, you publicly killed Cultivators from my Tianji Divine Continent previously. Did you disregard the instructions of Divine Venerable Moyuan? Do you think my Tianji Divine Continent has no one left?"
Hearing this, the people behind him glared angrily, acting as if Chu Yuan had truly committed an unforgivable crime.
Nearby, countless Cultivators turned their gazes toward the commotion.
Their eyes held a hint of amusement and curiosity.
Chu Yuan slightly frowned, his eyes cooling slightly, and he said in a deep voice: "They had no strength themselves yet still dared to try and rob me and harbor killing intent toward me—you conveniently omit that part!"
"Do you really think this young master is easy to bully?"
As his voice fell, a wave of killing intent surfaced on him, and a dozen or so streaks of Frost Sword Qi appeared around his body.
"Either scram, or die!"
As soon as these words were spoken, everyone's expressions drastically changed. They hadn't expected Chu Yuan to be so aggressive in front of so many people.
Facing the Frost Sword Qi, those people's eyes filled with fear.
The terrifying killing intent swept over them, coupled with the murderous aura on the Frost Sword Qi, causing them to instinctively shrink back.
Just then, another dozen figures flew over from afar.
"Do not be presumptuous!"
A cold shout rang out, and a person appeared in front of the group—it was Xing Wuxiu!
He glared fiercely at the young man and the others, then looked warily at Chu Yuan, cupping his hands and saying:
"Fellow Daoist, my Junior Brother and the others were in the wrong regarding this matter. I hope Fellow Daoist will not take it to heart."
Chu Yuan shook his head noncommittally. "As long as you don't provoke me, I couldn't care less whether you are right or wrong. Take your people and leave. Do not make me say it a second time."
Hearing this, everyone present was startled, their eyes filling with surprise and suspicion.
Xing Wuxiu is a Personal Disciple of the Xuantian Sect. How reckless is the dark demon sword fiend, daring to confront Xing Wuxiu so aggressively?
At the same time, Xing Wuxiu's brows were tightly furrowed, his eyes filled with displeasure.
He pondered for a moment, then said in a deep voice: "Your Excellency, Xing is delighted to see a worthy opponent. How about we have a fight?"
Hearing this, everyone present's eyes lit up, filled with curiosity.
Chu Yuan slightly tilted his head, glanced at him coldly, and immediately said in a cold voice: "Compete with me? You are not worthy. Scram immediately!"
"You..."
Xing Wuxiu's expression was shocked and angry. "This young master is the foremost genius of the Xuantian Sect's younger generation. How dare you insult me like this?"
"Foremost genius of the younger generation?"
Chu Yuan sneered. "Talk after you can take this attack from me. Otherwise, don't embarrass the Xuantian Sect."
As his voice fell, only three streaks of Frost Sword Qi remained around Chu Yuan's body; the rest dissipated.
However, those three streaks of Frost Sword Qi suddenly shot toward Xing Wuxiu in rapid succession.
Xing Wuxiu's expression slightly changed, and a Low-grade Spirit Treasure longsword appeared in his hand.
"Hmph, mere parlor tricks!"
He let out a cold snort, and the longsword in his hand shimmered with brilliant light. A fierce sword light burst forth, piercing the air.
The sword light also carried terrifying might and looked exceptionally magnificent.
Seeing this Move, many people present showed surprised expressions.
"It's the Heaven-Rank Spirit Skill, 'Sword Breaking the Sky.' I heard this is Xing Wuxiu's strongest Move."
"Although 'Sword Breaking the Sky' is very powerful, it consumes a huge amount of spiritual energy. It is said that Xing Wuxiu can only use it four or five times."
"He used his strongest Move already. It seems the dark demon sword fiend gave him quite a bit of pressure!"
"I think so!"
"I wonder what the result will be?"
"I once saw the dark demon sword fiend strike. A Middle Stage Spirit Crystal Realm Cultivator was instantly killed by a single streak of Sword Qi. It was terrifying."
"In that case, is Xing Wuxiu afraid he's hit a tough opponent?"
"That's unlikely, right? Xing Wuxiu is, after all, a Personal Disciple of the Xuantian Sect and the foremost genius of the younger generation. How could he be so weak?"
"We'll see!"
"..."
The onlookers whispered amongst themselves.
But they saw that as soon as the sword light collided with the first streak of Frost Sword Qi, both were shattered and canceled each other out.
However, the second streak of Frost Sword Qi seemed completely unaffected and instantly tore through the air.
"Whoosh! Whoosh!"
Before Xing Wuxiu could react further, two streaks of Frost Sword Qi, radiating fierce might, suddenly stopped at Xing Wuxiu's glabella and chest.
The fierce murderous aura left faint blood marks on his glabella and chest.
"Hiss~"
"Hiss~"
Witnessing this scene, the sound of gasps filled the area.
