400-meter sword - zero seal

“I'll hand her over to you for disposal. Let’s consider this matter settled, how about it?”

Wu Yun looked at Zhong Qing and anxiously shouted, “You can do whatever you want to her, I have no objections.”

Wu Yun’s inquiring gaze fell on Zhong Qing.

At this point, if Murong Xue’s life could save Heaven Cloud Sect, he would be more than willing.

And Wu Yun’s words completely plunged Murong Xue into an abyss.

This was the Sect she was so proud of.

This was the identity she was so proud of.

But a strong will to survive prompted Murong Xue to kneel directly on the ground, crawl towards Lin Feng, grab his pant leg, and plead bitterly, “Lin Feng, Lin Feng, I was wrong, it was my fault.”

“Actually, I’ve always loved you, and I’ve always believed you were a Dragon and Phoenix among men.”

“The reason I acted that way before was not what I wanted at all; it was all because Heaven Cloud Sect forced me.” Saying this, Murong Xue maliciously pointed at Wu Yun and shouted, “They all forced me, saying I was some Saintess.”

“Please acknowledge me, okay?”

“We are childhood sweethearts.”

“I’m your Xue’er, please spare my life, I’ll be your servant, okay?”

However.

Facing Murong Xue’s bitter pleas, Lin Feng’s face showed only indifference.

He had long seen through the true nature of this woman; how could he be softened by a few words from her?

Seeing that Lin Feng remained unmoved, Murong Xue suddenly shrieked loudly.

“Why are you ignoring me?”

“You good-for-nothing, how can you defeat me?”

“I’ve already lowered myself to beg you, what more do you want?”

Saying this.

She suddenly lashed out, a short blade appearing in her hand, and wildly stabbed towards Lin Feng.

“If you’re not willing to let me go, then you can die too!”

Facing Murong Xue’s sudden attack, Lin Feng easily dodged and, with a backhand, snatched the short blade from her hand.

“You truly are beyond saving.”

Lin Feng looked at her indifferently, moved his palm, and then lightly slit her throat.

Murong Xue fell to the ground instantly.

A generation’s Saintess, thus fell.

“Ah ah ah, you little beast, how dare you kill my daughter! I’ll kill you!”

In the chaos not far away, Murong Hai, seeing Murong Xue die by Lin Feng’s hand, instantly charged towards Lin Feng with bloodshot eyes, as if to tear him to pieces.

But before he could even get close to Lin Feng, he was directly crushed into a pulp by a master transformed from a wooden carving.

Zhong Qing didn't even spare a glance at the corpses of Murong and his daughter.

Instead, he slowly raised the teacup in his hand and took a light sip.

Then, he showed a relieved smile to Lin Feng.

Just then, the silent System suddenly spoke.

“Ding, congratulations to the host for allowing Disciple Lin Feng to grow.”

“Reward for the host: Natal Weapon — Zero Seal.”

“Zero Seal Introduction: Zero Seal has no fixed Rank; it grows with the host’s strength. At the same time, the host can freely change its form and produce special effects at will. Note: The power of Zero Seal will not change with its special effects or shape; it is only tied to the host’s strength.”

“Oh?”

“There’s an unexpected reward?”

Hearing the System’s voice, Zhong Qing’s eyes couldn’t help but light up.

He hadn't expected that helping his Disciple resolve his inner demons would bring such an unexpected gain.

With a thought, a long sword radiating white light appeared in Zhong Qing’s hand.

“This is Zero Seal?”

Recalling the System’s introduction to Zero Seal, Zhong Qing couldn’t help but ponder and examine it.

In the distance.

The one-sided slaughter continued.

Wu Yun, with bloodshot eyes, scurried around, burning with anxiety.

He tried every method he could think of, but ultimately failed to make Zhong Qing stop, only able to watch helplessly as everything of Heaven Cloud Sect was destroyed.

At this moment, he truly tasted the bitter fruit of his previous arrogance.

“No, this can’t go on.”

“I need to call for help.”

“I must find a way to seek support!”

“I cannot let Heaven Cloud Sect be destroyed in my hands like this.”

Wu Yun’s voice trembled as he glanced around, found a gap, and directly burned his vital blood to flee towards the outer perimeter.

Just as he escaped the combat zone, a mysterious fluctuation suddenly emanated from deep within Heaven Cloud Sect.

This fluctuation was extremely terrifying, as if a sealed Primordial Divine Beast had awakened at this moment.

Then, one saw.

A massive hand suddenly appeared from the depths of Heaven Cloud Sect, covering the battle area.

This palm strike.

Carried the force of heaven and earth collapsing.

More than a dozen masters transformed from wooden carvings perished directly under this single palm.

“This Old Ancestor merely slept for a few hundred years, and already people are bullying my Heaven Cloud Sect.”

“Could it be that everyone thought I wasn’t here, that I had died!”

Along with a voice like a heavenly melody, it was seen that a plain-clothed Old Ancestor walked out from the depths of Heaven Cloud Sect, stepping through the air.

His arrogant posture surveyed the entire scene.

And the aura emanating from him made many people gasp for breath.

Upon seeing the appearance of this Elder, the people of Heaven Cloud Sect seemed to have found their savior.

“Old Ancestor.”

“It’s actually Old Ancestor!”

“Old Ancestor is actually not dead.”

“This is truly great, Old Ancestor, he wants to destroy my Heaven Cloud Sect. We humbly request Old Ancestor to take action and eliminate the enemy.”

The people of Heaven Cloud Sect all knelt down in unison, paying respects to the Old Ancestor.

In the distance.

Wu Yun, who was just thinking of escaping to find help and save Heaven Cloud Sect, saw the Old Ancestor’s appearance and was immediately overjoyed, tears welling up in his eyes.

“Old Ancestor.”

“It really is Old Ancestor! Old Ancestor is actually not dead, and judging by his aura, he seems to have reached the legendary Earth Profound Realm.”

“My Heaven Cloud Sect is saved!!!”

Wu Yun trembled all over with excitement.

No one had expected.

The situation would reverse so quickly.

Heaven Cloud Sect’s Old Ancestor was actually not dead, and had even entered the Earth Profound Realm.

It was no exaggeration to say that Heaven Cloud Sect now had sufficient qualifications to become one of the Holy Lands of the East Region. Because to become an East Region Holy Land, the most basic requirement was for the Sect to have a presence in the Earth Profound Realm.

In short.

His appearance.

Was like a ray of light for the people of Heaven Cloud Sect.

Dispelling all the gloom in their hearts and illuminating their future.

And in front of the Earth Profound Realm, no matter how many Sun Profound Realm exist, they are completely insignificant.

From the fact that he hadn't even appeared yet, but merely with a single palm strike, he killed over a dozen Sun Profound Realm masters, one could already see the terror of the Earth Profound Realm.

Countless gazes looked at the plain-clothed Old Ancestor standing in the air, their eyes filled with fervor.

As if the words “invincible” were written on his body.

And the final victory would ultimately belong to their Heaven Cloud Sect.

However.

Just then, something completely unexpected happened.

A four-hundred-meter long blade appeared out of thin air.

The blade emitted a cold Qi, with a Dragon and Phoenix soaring and Divine Beasts entwined on one side, and ghosts wailing and Death Qi heavily present on the other.

This four-hundred-meter long blade extended from the ground and was directly placed against the plain-clothed Old Ancestor’s neck.

The plain-clothed Old Ancestor, who had just appeared invincible, suddenly went weak in the knees in mid-air and directly knelt.
