89: threaten!

After the Grand Elder finished speaking, he turned and poured all of his profound cultivation into the Sect Protecting Grand Formation.

Upon hearing the Grand Elder's words, the Cultivators of the Heaven Sword Sect on the ground swept away their previous fear, displaying the battle prowess that a Heaven Sword Sect Cultivator ought to possess!

Tens of thousands of people soared into the sky, one after another, exerting their full strength to reinforce the Formation!

For a time, the roaring sounds were ceaseless, but because the Heaven Sword Sect's Sect Protecting Grand Formation had received the support of the Heaven Sword Sect's Disciples, it showed no signs of breaking for a long time!

Seeing this, the other side began an even more ferocious assault.

Both sides seemed to have fallen into a stalemate.

After three hours of such frenzied bombardment.

The Cultivators on both sides were already exhausted.

Some with lower cultivation levels could no longer float in the air and lay on the ground, unable to move.

This was especially true for the Disciples of Chenyin Pavilion and Fengluo Valley, as they were the ones on the offensive.

Most of them had no deep hatred for the Heaven Sword Sect; they were simply following the orders of their own leaders, so naturally, as they fought, they lost much of their Battle Intent.

Conversely, the Disciples of the Heaven Sword Sect were defending their Sect; even if their cultivation was insufficient, they were still filled with high-spirited Battle Intent!

Yi Kangping, Master of Chen Yin Tower, looked at the Heaven Sword Sect and the Disciples around him, frowning.

He understood that breaking the Formation was likely impossible.

Then there was no choice; it seemed he could only do this!

Yi Kangping was seen flying slowly in front of everyone with his hands behind his back, then he extended his right hand to signal the people behind him to stop.

He then turned around and said loudly to the people of the Heaven Sword Sect:

"Fellow Daoists of the Heaven Sword Sect, do you know why we have come to attack you?"

"If you want to blame someone, blame your Sect Master for the despicable things he has done! He actually took the Opportunity to snatch the Opportunity belonging to me and Cheng Honglang, Valley Master of Feng Luo Valley!"

"Cheng Honglang, Valley Master of Feng Luo Valley, and I found a Dao Grade Legacy site by chance, but your Sect Master hid in the shadows, ambushed us, and stole the Legacy that should have been ours!"

"Tell me, shouldn't Cheng Honglang, Valley Master of Feng Luo Valley, and I come to demand it back? I, Yi Kangping, Master of Chen Yin Tower, hereby make a promise: as long as your Sect Master hands over the Legacy, my Chenyin Pavilion will withdraw immediately and will not come to invade again!"

Seeing this, Cheng Honglang, Valley Master of Feng Luo Valley, also slowly walked to Yi Kangping, Master of Chen Yin Tower's side, scanned the people inside the Heaven Sword Sect, and said with an unchanging expression:

"I am the same as Pavilion Master Yi; hand over the Legacy, and we will withdraw immediately!"

The Grand Elder inside the Heaven Sword Sect could no longer listen and immediately cursed angrily:

"You two dogs, you are lying with your eyes wide open! Our Sect Master's Legacy was obtained by him personally entering the Secret Realm and surviving a near-death experience; when did it ever become something stolen from you?!"

"You two shameless wretches, why don't you just say the entire Heaven Sword Sect is yours? If you want to use force to plunder, just say it directly. Making up these excuses only makes us look down on you even more! You two idiots!!"

"Don't use such low-class tactics as mud-slinging. We are right here inside the Heaven Sword Sect; if you have the ability, attack and kill your way in! Stop yapping, you two pieces of trash!!"

"You!! Fine, fine, fine, you forced me to do this!"

Yi Kangping, Master of Chen Yin Tower, laughed in extreme anger, flicked his sleeves, and instantly, an extremely weak person appeared in his hand!

As soon as the people of the Heaven Sword Sect saw this person, they recognized him.

This was their Heaven Sword Sect's Elder Lin!!

Soul Transformation Great Perfection cultivation, Lin Ao!!

"Elder Lin? Elder Lin!"

Disciples inside the Heaven Sword Sect continuously called out, shouting for Lin Ao.

Seeing the emotional fluctuations among the Disciples of the Heaven Sword Sect, Yi Kangping, Master of Chen Yin Tower, snorted coldly.

Suddenly, he stepped on his head, and Elder Lin Ao let out an involuntary muffled groan.

Subsequently, Yi Kangping, Master of Chen Yin Tower, viciously said to the Disciples of the Heaven Sword Sect:

"I won't say much more to you. Return the Legacy, and I will let him go immediately, along with the rest of the Heaven Sword Sect Disciples! If you don't, you can say your final goodbyes!"

"Don't force me; whether this person lives or dies depends entirely on your choice!"

As soon as these words were spoken, it was like a thunderclap exploding within the Heaven Sword Sect. The Disciples only felt their minds buzzing, and their eyes instantly turned blood-red.

A wave of extreme hatred, like a surging, tumultuous tide, flooded their hearts, causing their chests to heave violently, almost to the point of bursting!

Everyone's gaze locked tightly onto Yi Kangping, Master of Chen Yin Tower, like sharp arrows, filled with endless killing intent and rage.

Their hands were seen clenching tightly into fists; because they were using too much force, their knuckles had already turned white.

Elder Lin was famous in the Heaven Sword Sect for his good temper.

He treated the Disciples under him kindly and affably, without a shred of an Elder's airs.

Whenever a Disciple asked him a question, he would always smile, listen patiently, and chuckle as he gave detailed and accurate answers.

When encountering some complex and difficult questions, he would even spare no effort, tirelessly demonstrating repeatedly until the Disciples understood completely.

Furthermore, Elder Lin often held various lectures on Cultivation within the Sect.

He would impart his many years of Cultivation insights and experience to the numerous Disciples without reservation.

Therefore, a large group of loyal followers gathered under him.

It could be said that the Disciples of the Heaven Sword Sect had always held deep respect and gratitude for this highly respected Elder Lin.

This respect was heartfelt and devoid of any falsehood!

Yet now, their beloved Elder Lin was actually being trampled underfoot and humiliated, and this was being used to threaten their own Sect.

This scene deeply stung the heart of every Heaven Sword Sect Disciple.

The raging, monstrous fire of anger swept through the entire Heaven Sword Sect in an instant.

If gazes could kill, Yi Kangping, Master of Chen Yin Tower, would have already died countless times.

Among them, some Disciples were even crying out loudly.

"No, Master! Master! Grand Elder, I beg you, please save my Master quickly; that is my Master... he is the only family I have left in this world!!"

"Grand Elder, I beg you to think of a way, please think of a way quickly, save Elder Lin; he has shown me immense kindness!! Ahhhh!!"

"Sect Master! Sect Master, where are you! Save him!! Come quickly and save him... save Elder Lin!!"

Even more agitated people, with bloodshot eyes, rushed directly toward the Formation, using their fists and knees to continuously attack the Formation.

They could not bear for Elder Lin to be humiliated like this, and they desperately wanted to save him at all costs!

Some of these people were Elder Lin's Disciples, and some were Elder Lin's close friends.

Some were people who had received guidance or favors from Elder Lin, and some were people who often attended his lectures.

Seeing this scene, this group of people was about to lose their minds!

If a Cultivator could endure someone humiliating a person they loved and respected like this, then what kind of immortality were they even Cultivating!!

At this moment, the Grand Elder of the Heaven Sword Sect also had bloodshot eyes, but within them was a trace of helplessness.

He did not know how to handle this matter!

Looking at Elder Lin's miserable appearance, his heart was even more pained than those Disciples!
