745: Chapter 745 The Liu Clan's Tribulations

"Third Elder…" came a heart-wrenching scream from the crowd.

"Damn it, damn it! I'm going to kill him, I'm going to kill him!" roared another person.

Then came a third person, eyes bloodshot, gritting teeth: "Clan Chief, I want to avenge the Third Elder!"

The surroundings were ignited by these voices.

One after another, some clenched their fists, some raised their long swords aiming at you, and some roared as they pushed forward, only to be held back tightly by others.

Someone said nothing, just glared at you with red eyes, trembling with anger to the point that teeth chattered and even breaths carried a trembling tone.

Liu Tianxing glanced at the clansmen who had stepped forward, his eyes bloodshot and voice hoarse: "Shut up! You have no say here!"

"Enough." You waved your hand indifferently, your voice soft yet exceptionally clear,

"Some Karma was destined long ago."

"There is no reason in this world where you can slaughter others, but act all righteous when it comes to yourselves."

"Not fearing death does not mean you are good people."

"Today, your life and death are mine to decide."

As your voice fell, your figure flickered, hovering in the firmament, and then you raised your hand—

Swish, swish, swish, swish, swish!

Five streaks of light shot out, standing in five directions and transforming into five gigantic swords propping up the heavens. Their bodies entered the clouds, and their tips pointed downward, each emitting a suffocating aura.

"immortal slaying sword?" Liu Tianxing's pupils constricted.

"immortal slaying sword…" Liu Xuanyin opened his mouth wide, his face turning pale.

All the higher-ups of the Liu Clan looked at the five ancient swords with varying expressions.

They finally understood.

"Hahaha… So that's how it is!" Liu Tianxing threw his head back and laughed loudly. "The heavens want to destroy my Liu Clan! The heavens want to destroy my Liu Clan!"

His eyes were bloodshot. He glanced at the millions of clansmen behind him, then at the higher-ups of the Liu Clan, his voice hoarse yet clear:

"This is the great tribulation of my Liu Clan. All clansmen, follow me to meet the clan calamity!"

"Good. Even if we die, we cannot lose the face of the Liu family." Liu Qingtian's figure moved, coming to Liu Tianxing's side.

"So that's how it is… Is it a destiny that ultimately cannot be avoided?" Liu Xuanyin smiled, his expression calm as he flashed to hover on the other side of Liu Tianxing.

Following closely were a dozen higher-ups including Liu Tianci, Guardian, and Liu Suifeng.

Then came those of Soul Transformation, Nascent Soul, Golden Core, Foundation Establishment, and Qi Refining, standing row after row behind them, layer upon layer, without a single person retreating.

No one spoke, but everyone raised their hands.

Millions of streaks of light lit up simultaneously—

Thunderlight, Talismans, Magic Treasures, Spirit Treasures, and Law Power, lights of various colors intertwined together, converging into a torrent traversing the firmament, sweeping toward you with the momentum to crush everything.

That torrent surged, rotated, and devoured everything along the way, crushing even the air into fragments wherever it passed.

Your expression remained indifferent, unmoving—you wanted them to die in despair.

When that torrent surged within three feet of you, the Power of the Great Dao spread out like water, silently meeting it.

Those thunderlights extinguished the instant they made contact, the Talismans burned out mid-air, and the Magic Treasures shattered, disintegrated, and turned into nothingness one by one.

The light of those Spirit Treasures grew increasingly dim, fine cracks splitting across their surfaces, their Law patterns forcefully erased, before losing their luster and plummeting down.

The light dissipated, the sound vanished, and the torrent formed by millions of attacks crashed like an invisible wall, collapsing from the center toward both sides, leaving nothing behind.

Not even a gust of wind managed to blow against the corner of your garment.

The air in the entire Tianshu City seemed to have been sucked dry, even the wind stopped, and time itself seemed to slow down by a beat.

Looking at this result, higher-ups like Liu Tianxing showed no surprise on their faces, only revealing a hint of a relieved smile, as if they had long known this would be the outcome.

Meanwhile, the complexions of those low-tier Cultivators changed drastically. Some trembled at the lips, some clenched their fists, and some even forgot to breathe, staring fixedly at the motionless figure in the firmament.

They had only heard of the methods of a Mahayana Cultivator, but hearing about it and seeing it with their own eyes were entirely two different matters.

Until this moment, they truly realized what level of existence the target they had just attacked truly was.

That was a gap that could not be bridged by numbers, will, or courage; it was an existence they could never reach in this lifetime.

Everyone's facial expressions varied.

Some smiled, some froze, some felt fear, and some cried.

Your indifferent gaze swept across them, your voice carrying not a shred of emotion:

"Five Elements Life and Death Sword Array."

Before your words finished, the Five Elements power intertwined and rotated in the Void Realm, transforming into an invisible giant net that covered the entire Star Continent.

Then, the sword light lit up.

Hundreds of millions of sword lights derived from the sword array, descending from the sky like a fine drizzle, carrying an aura that could cut through everything.

They did not slash down; they swept past silently.

They swept past all the buildings in the Liu Clan Territory—pavilions, palaces, Immortal Caves, immortal mountains, ancestral halls, medicine gardens, and so on.

When sweeping past the pavilions, the pavilions split from the middle, collapsing into two halves, before being swept by the aftermath and turning into ruins.

When sweeping past the palaces, the roofs of the palaces were blown off, the walls disintegrated, and the fragments were chopped into powder by subsequent sword lights before hitting the ground.

When sweeping past the Grotto-Heaven Blessed Land, those treasured lands flowing with spiritual light were torn apart like paper, the Spiritual Veins snapped, the spiritual springs dried up, and the fragments dissipated in the Void Realm.

They swept past the millions of Liu Clan members in the sky above Tianshu City.

On a flying boat, a boy of seven or eight years old was still hugging a sword longer than himself—Liu Suifeng had said that he had good bone structure and could practice the sword Dao when he grew up.

When the sword light fell, he raised his head to look at the traces of light filling the sky, instinctively holding the sword above his head.

The scabbard shattered, and the light spread from his fingertips across his wrists, forearms, shoulders, and chest.

He lowered his head to look at his dissipating hand and suddenly smiled, as if seeing something this bright for the first time.

Then his whole body dissipated.

That broken sword, snapped into two pieces, fell onto the flying boat deck with a clatter.

Many people were still standing on the flying boat. Some finally burst into tears, some knelt down, and others gritted their teeth and closed their eyes.

Below Soul Transformation, before they could even see what was happening, their bodies had already been swept by the aftermath of the sword light, chopped into fragments, and dissipated into the air.

Above Soul Transformation, their eyes widened briefly, as if wanting to see something clearly, but the next instant, their bodies also scattered along with it.

Countless onlooker Cultivators in Tianshu City froze in place, not even daring to let out a single heavy breath.

Some widened their eyes, some opened their mouths, some had sweat beading on their foreheads, and some had weak legs.

Hiss—!

The Zhulong hovering in the firmament drew a sharp breath of cold air, its huge pupils contracting violently. When looking at Qin Chen, a trace of unprecedented fear flashed through its gaze.
