22: Chapter 22 Kill!!

It was just for an instant.

The ordinary Disciples within the entire Xuantian Holy Land fell into a panic.

There was no way around it.

The pressure from the Void Realm was too strong.

It was simply not something those ordinary Disciples could withstand.

And upon the high platform.

Upon seeing this chaotic scene, the faces of the high-ranking members of the Xuantian Holy Land turned green.

Especially the current Saint Master of the Xuantian Holy Land.

Saint Master, who possessed the cultivation of a Half-Step Celestial Realm.

His expression was so gloomy it could almost drip water, and anger churned within his chest.

One must know.

Today was the important moment for their Holy Land to establish its future successor, yet someone dared to break in and disrupt it in such an arrogant manner at this time?

How deep must the hatred be...

This was simply trampling their Xuantian Holy Land's dignity and face, accumulated over hundreds of years, into the dirt!

Could this be tolerated?

Certainly not...

Saint Master stood up abruptly, his Half-Step Celestial Realm Aura exploding forth.

"Scoundrel! What Prodigy dares to act so presumptuously in my Xuantian Holy Land?"

His voice rang out across heaven and earth like a thunderclap, filled with endless rage.

"Hiding your head and showing your tail, daring to disturb my Holy Land's grand ceremony, are you tired of living? Hurry up and get down here to die!"

However.

His angry shout seemed somewhat like a paper tiger in the face of that boundless darkness and immense pressure.

And compared to Saint Master.

Even angrier was the Old Ancestor of the Xuantian Holy Land in the Celestial Realm, Li Youran!

At this moment, Li Youran's hair and beard stood on end, his original otherworldly temperament completely gone, replaced by sky-high rage and icy Killing Intent.

As a Celestial Realm Old Ancestor, he had long been accustomed to being revered and respected.

Appearing today to observe the ceremony was an exception, meant to be an elegant affair showcasing the Holy Land's foundation, but he hadn't expected some reckless thing to dare to attack so openly while he was presiding over it!

This was clearly not taking him seriously!

Although the pressure from the Void Realm made him somewhat vigilant, it was mostly a sense of being offended!

"Hmph! You ignorant rat!"

Li Youran snorted coldly, his voice not loud, but carrying the unique power of the Celestial Realm, clearly overpowering Saint Master's roar.

"Knowing that I am here, you still dare to come to my Xuantian Holy Land to run wild? Are you tired of living, or do you simply not take me seriously?"

He slowly stood up.

Immediately, a vast Aura, countless times stronger than Saint Master's, surged into the sky.

The dignity of the Celestial Realm could not be provoked; he wanted the invaders to know that the Xuantian Holy Land was definitely not a soft persimmon for anyone to squeeze!

And he, Li Youran.

Was an existence that could not be provoked even more!

After Li Youran stood out, the people of the Holy Land seemed to have found their backbone, and they all calmed down.

In their eyes.

Their Holy Land's Old Ancestor was an invincible existence!

As long as their Holy Land's Old Ancestor took action, there was nothing that couldn't be resolved; this was their blind confidence in Celestial Realm powerhouses.

And just at this moment.

An icy, indifferent voice, seemingly devoid of any human emotion, came from the black mist in the Void Realm.

"Commander of the Embroidered Uniform Guard, Ji Gang..."

When he said this, the voice paused slightly.

As if giving the people below time to react.

"By the order of His Majesty of the Tianxuan Dynasty..."

"Flatten the Xuantian Holy Land to uphold the Imperial law!"

"Everyone in the Holy Land, kneel and submit immediately, otherwise..."

"Kill without exception, leave no one alive!"

Once the words "Imperial Dynasty" were uttered.

It was like a thunderclap exploding in the ears of Saint Master, Li Youran, and all the high-ranking members of the Holy Land!

"Imperial Dynasty?"

"Tianxuan Dynasty?"

"This... how is this possible?"

Saint Master's pupils shrank suddenly, his face filled with disbelief.

That weak Imperial Dynasty in his impression that was already on the verge of collapse, internally corrupt, and whose decrees could barely leave the Imperial Capital?

How could it possess such terrifying power?

And how could they dare to utter such arrogant words as "flatten the Xuantian Holy Land"?

Li Youran's eyes also flashed with sharp light, filled with shock and doubt.

Imperial Dynasty?

Those three old, immortal Celestial Realm Old Ancestors of the Imperial family; although he had not fought them, they roughly knew each other's strength.

They definitely could not possess such fierce and terrifying Killing Intent.

However.

Before they could think further.

The black mist had already appeared above them, and the scene within was revealed.

Four Celestial Realm powerhouses stood proudly in the air.

The leader was dressed in a flying fish uniform, with a Xiuchun Blade hanging at his waist, his face cold and stern.

The three old men behind him, although aged, possessed that unique Aura belonging to the Imperial family's Cultivation Technique, which Li Youran would never misidentify.

They were exactly those three Celestial Realm Old Ancestors of the Imperial family!

And behind them.

Were five hundred elite powerhouses, all at least at the Grandmaster Realm, with Killing Intent as solid as iron!

Four Celestial Realm powerhouses!

Five hundred powerhouses at the Grandmaster Realm or above!

This power.

Was enough to make any super power feel their scalp tingle!

The rage in Li Youran's heart was instantly replaced by an icy chill.

The other side was not bluffing at all!

The Imperial Dynasty had actually hidden such terrifying fangs, and the moment they struck, it was a disaster of sect-extermination!

"Imperial Dynasty... good, very good!"

Li Youran gritted his teeth, his voice filled with shock and rage.

"I didn't expect you to have such a foundation! However, just relying on you, you want to destroy my Xuantian Holy Land's thousand-year legacy? Do you really think I, Li Youran, am made of mud?!"

Although his words were fierce.

His heart was already ringing with alarm bells, knowing that today's matter would likely not end well.

Ji Gang was expressionless, not bothering to engage in a war of words with Li Youran.

He slowly drew the Xiuchun Blade from his waist, the blade flashing with a bone-chilling cold light under the dim sky.

Subsequently.

His blade pointed directly at the panicked crowd of the Xuantian Holy Land below, and he spat out only one word.

"Kill."

As that cold word "Kill" was spat out from Ji Gang's mouth.

The atmosphere, which was already suppressed to the extreme, was instantly ignited, turning into the most violent storm of slaughter!

Ji Gang's gaze, like a falcon locking onto its prey, was instantly and firmly fixed on Li Youran.

Facing the Holy Land's Old Ancestor, who was also in the Celestial Realm, he did not test him, nor did he waste any words. His figure flickered, and he transformed into a black blade radiance that tore through the Void Realm, carrying a resolute Killing Intent to sever everything, rushing straight at Li Youran!

The terrifying cultivation of the Middle Stage of the Celestial Realm exploded without reservation. Wherever the blade passed, the space rippled slightly, as if it could not withstand that sharp edge!

"Arrogant!"

Li Youran was both shocked and angry, not expecting the opponent to be so direct and domineering.

He dared not be negligent, shouted angrily, and a terrifying Aura of the Middle Stage of the Celestial Realm also exploded from his body.

The two powerhouses at the Middle Stage of the Celestial Realm instantly engaged in battle. The collision of terrifying energy exploded in the high sky like thunder, and the scattered force of the wind blew the buildings in the square below until they were tottering!

At the same time.

The three Imperial Dynasty Old Ancestors also moved.

Although they appeared old, their eyes were as sharp as knives at this moment. The pressure of the Celestial Realm was like three great mountains, crashing down onto the high-ranking members of the Xuantian Holy Land!

Saint Master, several Elders at the Great Grandmaster Realm, and dozens of Elders and deacons at the Grandmaster Realm, facing the joint pressure of the three Celestial Realm powerhouses, only felt that breathing was difficult, and their Souls were trembling!

"Attack! Form the formation!"

Saint Master's eyes were splitting with rage.

He was the first to draw his sword, stimulating all his True Qi, attempting to organize resistance.

However.

In the face of absolute disparity in strength, struggling seemed meaningless.

Just after one exchange.

More than half of the high-ranking combat power of the Xuantian Holy Land was lost!

Such a huge gap made everyone who survived show a look of despair...
