Chapter 469 A Calm Retreat

An arm tens of miles long probed into the gap of the great array, and Saber Qi fell like a celestial waterfall.

Although Old Ancestor Zhao Xinghe used the Moon-Illuminating Treasure Artifact to defend at the first moment, Saber light still slashed down towards the area below.

All the clansmen were so insignificant beneath this Saber light.

Just like ants.

At this critical moment, the Second Ancestor Zhao Yinghua's long sword traced out a crescent moon sword shadow, colliding with that demonic saber; who knew how many times they clashed in an instant.

Her beautiful hair danced, her moon-white palace dress fluttered, and her mature, charming face was filled with solemnity.

The Saber light and Sword Qi caused the mountains below to explode, and the once celestial-like jade buildings and pavilions turned into dust in an instant.

Puff! Puff! Puff!!

Just from this single blow, who knew how many Zhao Family clansmen died miserably, all turning into blood mist.

"Ah!!!"

The Zhao clansmen, who had originally gathered on various mountain peaks to watch the battle through Treasure Artifacts, were terrified by this bloody scene and all fled in every direction, screaming miserably.

"Old Ancestor, save me!!"

"Run! The Saber Demon has broken the array!!!"

"How could this happen?!!"

Various screams rang out one after another within a radius of tens of thousands of miles. On every mountain peak, figures were fleeing for their lives, wishing they could get as far away as possible from that demonic hand in the sky.

One could see beautiful, towering spiritual peaks being sliced by the Saber Qi, sliding straight down from the mountainside.

In the valleys dense with Spiritual Qi, the ground was easily torn like cloth, creating a massive canyon a thousand zhang long, with abundant Origin Qi erupting from underground.

Fortunately, array patterns flickered, preventing the entire Zhao Family territory from turning into complete ruins.

Even so, an area of a thousand miles was affected, presenting a scene of chaos.

Prompt sounds kept ringing in Yan Chu's ears, which made him overjoyed; he couldn't stop grinning from ear to ear.

Although the Zhao Family territory was vast and the clansmen lived scattered, this wave still brought him extremely rich harvests.

If he could land two more slashes like this, he might be able to immediately Breakthrough to the Great Saint Realm today.

"Stop!!"

"You brat, how dare you!!!"

At the same time, at the very core of the territory, two terrifying figures leapt out. Their blood energy was decaying, but their Aura was terrifyingly immense, even surpassing that of Ancestor Zhao Xinghe.

The two old Saint Monarchs could not be seen clearly in appearance; they only had moon-essence runes flickering all over their bodies, with a divine moon in the sky behind them, casting cold moonlight over the entire territory.

These were the old immortals of the Zhao Family who had been in closed-door cultivation.

Even when Yan Chu killed Sage Lord Zhao Xu outside, they did not appear, but now that he had entered the array with a single saber, the two had to break their seclusion and come out.

Although their Lifespan was coming to an end, the momentum of their attacks was extremely terrifying.

The person on the left reached out from afar with a withered, stick-like palm, its palm filled with mysterious moon-colored runes.

It was obvious that they had pushed the Law-fusion level to the extreme.

The Law runes had merged into every part of their body; they were the Incarnation of the Law itself.

Clang!!!

Yan Chu's invincible Saber light lost its effect in front of this old man. With a crisp, vibrating ring, the vast Saber Qi slashed out by the blade was shattered by that palm.

The other old man sacrificed a moon wheel, carrying the sharpness to cut through everything, spinning towards Yan Chu's arm, intending to sever it.

Hum! Hum!!

Alarm bells rang in Yan Chu's heart, and a terrifying Saber Intent capable of devouring heaven and earth bloomed upon the tiger soul.

In a trance, all the Zhao clansmen saw a black demonic tiger standing between heaven and earth, opening its bloody mouth to devour the very heavens.

A huge pitch-black crack appeared above, swallowing that moon wheel.

It was none other than the Heaven-Devouring move.

"Break!!"

Hearing the old man shout with a full voice, the space thousands of miles away hissed, and the moon wheel actually cut through space and crawled out from there.

Then, with a rotation in mid-air, it slashed towards Yan Chu's arm again.

"Hahahaha! I'm done playing with you all!!!"

From outside the great array, Yan Chu let out a wild laugh, and his arm was immediately withdrawn. The terrifying Saber Qi slashed out by that saber, filled with demonic intent, all vanished under the methods of the two old Saint Monarchs.

These two old immortals were not easy to deal with.

Yan Chu was not afraid one-on-one, but two was a bit troublesome.

Moreover, the great array was repairing and contracting on its own; if he didn't retreat, his arm might really be cut off.

With this great array blocking, losing an arm and being unable to retrieve it would be a significant loss.

As Yan Chu withdrew his arm, the great array, no longer blocked by his Law, instantly sealed itself up like flowing water.

All the Zhao clansmen glared over.

They saw Yan Chu standing in the vast sky, his Aura majestic and vast, the light of the Law as brilliant as the sun and moon, his figure tall and imposing.

With the power of one person, he had actually forced their entire Family to hide within the great array, suffering heavy losses.

Many Zhao clansmen couldn't help but feel dejected and soul-lost.

Many of them already knew Yan Chu's origin, knowing he was not even fifty years old.

Someone whose cultivation years didn't even amount to a fraction of theirs, so young, yet already possessing such cultivation achievements; his future was simply limitless.

They were no longer the opponent's match and could no longer manipulate him.

Now they had also formed a deep enmity.

Did the Zhao Family have a future?

Besides the disappointment, many Zhao Family high-level members fell into deep panic.

Fifth Young Master Zhao Qingshang stood on a spiritual peak.

Just now, when Yan Chu's arm reached in and a single slash wiped out a thousand miles in radius, he had not suffered any injuries because he was hiding in the core area and protected by clan elders.

But at this moment, looking at that figure outside the great array through the Treasure Artifact, he couldn't help but feel filled with despair.

Before this, he thought the other party was the same age as him.

Although he had become a Saint, he was still like an ant before the Zhao Family; he would surely be captured by the Family sooner or later, and his secrets would be obtained. Surpassing Yan Chu would just be a matter of time.

But everything was shattered by this scene before him.

With so many Saint Monarchs and Old Ancestors in the Zhao Family, they actually allowed the other party to come and go freely.

The dignified number one Family of the Fusheng Domain had actually been forced to this point.

"Fourth Grandfather, is our Zhao Family about to face a catastrophe?"

Zhao Qingshang's mouth was dry as he asked the Clan Elder Zhao Xuan beside him.

Zhao Xuan also looked soul-lost at this moment.

Just a few days ago, they were excited and full of ambition for having captured Great Master Likong, but just a few days later, the situation had reversed to such an extent that no one could have imagined it.

"I don't know..."

Zhao Xuan shook his head blankly, his soul wandering outside the heavens.

Even if Yan Chu really had some secret, this secret was so big that the Zhao Family had no right to touch it, and even the Shenyue Liushuang Sect behind them probably wouldn't have a chance, right?

Swish! Swish!

With the sound of fluttering robes, the two most senior Zhao Family Old Ancestors appeared beside Ancestor Zhao Xinghe. Their bodies were covered in age spots, and they emitted the smell of old age that only the extremely elderly had.

Although the two had been in closed-door cultivation and had not appeared, everything that happened here had not escaped their perception.

They cast their gaze outside the great array.

The crescent moon city that Yan Chu had thrown down did not shatter upon falling to the ground; instead, it remained intact.
