120: Fighting in the endless vast void, shocking all forces in heaven!
Immediately, a thunderous roar, like a lightning strike, resounded, and a powerful sword intent had already descended before Xuan Tianchen.
The momentum seemed to completely engulf him, suppressing and killing him on the spot.
"To die by This Imperial Son's sword, you can be proud!"
The Heartless Empress looked at the scene before her, her eyes devoid of emotion, still appearing cold as ice.
To her, a prodigy like Xuan Tianchen, with an unrighteous Dao heart and arrogant demeanor, deserved to die at any time.
Otherwise, if he were to fully mature, who knows how many innocent people would suffer.
However... just as she thought Xuan Tianchen was certain to die.
Xuan Tianchen's disdainful and contemptuous voice suddenly exploded like thunder:
"This Imperial Son has killed many Quasi-Emperor Experts. How dare a mere Supreme Expert like you claim to kill This Imperial Son? Utterly naive!"
Before his words finished, the Heaven-shaking sword intent unleashed by the Heartless Empress was instantly shattered by his single strike, dissipating into nothingness.
"It seems This Imperial Son underestimated you!"
The Heartless Empress couldn't help but feel a shock, her beautiful eyes filled with disbelief.
She had originally thought that even if this sword couldn't kill Xuan Tianchen, it would be enough to severely wound him with one blow.
She never expected that the opponent would so easily break her killing move.
At this moment, as a Supreme Expert, she had to start taking Xuan Tianchen seriously.
Because her intuition told her that Xuan Tianchen was not as simple as he appeared on the surface.
"Underestimating This Imperial Son can lead to death, you know!"
Xuan Tianchen suddenly sneered, his laughter filled with wantonness and arrogance.
Then, in the blink of an eye, his posture of looking down on all things had already reached the Heartless Empress.
Upon seeing this, the latter calmly and coldly said, "Is that so? I wonder how many of This Imperial Son's swords you can block?"
Without the slightest hesitation, her mind instantly moved.
Under the impetus of her powerful Supreme Expert cultivation, the heartless sword tightly held in her jade hand suddenly burst forth with dazzling light, making it impossible to look directly at.
Following closely was a clear sword cry that shook the heavens and earth.
"Clang..."
In an instant, the heavens and earth trembled.
The vast Imperial Weapon's power contained within the heartless sword was fully unleashed, spreading wildly in all directions like surging tides.
Originally, this was what the Heartless Empress intended to use against the expert behind Xuan Tianchen.
But since the other party didn't want to make a move, she would use this to kill Xuan Tianchen and force him out.
She believed that if the other party saw Xuan Tianchen in danger, he would definitely not stand idly by.
No sooner said than done, in just the blink of an eye, the two were fiercely fighting.
Accompanied by metallic clashing sounds that echoed through the heavens and earth, like deafening bells.
The two had already moved their battle into the boundless void, their figures as fast as lightning, making them difficult to catch.
Wherever they passed, the void shattered, and the heavens and earth collapsed, as if the end of the world had arrived.
Such terrifying anomalies instantly alarmed the entire Jueqing Immortal Domain and the entire Upper Realm.
"That direction is... Phoenix Cry Valley in Jueqing Immortal Domain? Who on earth is fighting!" Someone asked, full of shock, looking at the direction of the terrifying battle, his voice trembling.
"This battle aura seems to be from a Supreme Expert and... a Saint Monarch cultivator! How can it be so terrifying?!" Someone gasped, shaken by the powerful aura.
"Imperial Weapon... This is the power of an Imperial Weapon!!" Someone exclaimed, sensing the unique and powerful aura.
"I didn't expect an Imperial Weapon to appear in Jueqing Immortal Domain now. It seems the times are changing!!" Someone said with a solemn expression, full of worry.
"Issue This Imperial Son's command: no one from our sect is allowed to go and observe without authorization. Those who disobey will be expelled from the sect!" A sect master said with a serious face, issuing a strict order.
"From this day forward, our clan disciples are not allowed to go to Jueqing Immortal Domain!" The patriarch of an immortal force said with a firm tone and a solemn expression.
For a time, many forces in the Upper Realm were shaken... In Xiao Yao Immortal Domain, the entire Xiao Yao Immortal Sect was now draped in white mourning silks to commemorate Carefree Master.
Everyone wore white headbands, a scene of solemnity and sorrow.
"The Imperial Weapon has appeared in the Upper Realm. It seems a troubled time is coming. Pass down the order that all disciples of our sect are not allowed to go out from this day forward."
Inside the Xiao Yao Immortal Sect hall, all the high-ranking members were now looking solemn, and the atmosphere was oppressive.
Since the ancestor Carefree Master fell to the lower realm, the high-end combat power of the entire Xiao Yao Immortal Sect had been greatly weakened.
Now that the Imperial Weapon had appeared in the Upper Realm, it was clearly not a good omen.
At such a critical juncture, no more mistakes could be made.
Otherwise, if they were coveted by other forces, the Xiao Yao Immortal Sect might face disaster.
In Phoenix Immortal Domain, the ancestral land of the Phoenix Clan.
Inside an ancient bronze hall, two old men with extraordinary auras were sitting, and at this moment, they both suddenly opened their eyes.
Immediately, their powerful auras instantly bloomed, filling the entire ancient bronze hall, as if to crush everything.
"The Imperial Weapon has appeared in the Upper Realm. I wonder if it is related to the death of our clan's junior in the lower realm a few days ago?"
One of the old men frowned, his gaze deep.
"Hard to say. The aura emanating from this Imperial Weapon is different from the one that descended earlier; it's clearly not the same one!"
The other old man slowly shook his head, his expression solemn.
"Hmm, it is indeed different from the previous one."
"We are at a critical juncture of cultivating to the Ninth Level Quasi-Emperor, so it's best not to be distracted."
As the two men's voices abruptly stopped, the ancient bronze hall returned to its original silence.
As if everything that had just happened had never occurred.
At the same time, the Dragon Clan's imperial palace in the True Dragon Immortal Domain was also shaken.
"Another Imperial Weapon! The Dragon Clan Old Ancestor fell to the lower realm because of this. I didn't expect an Imperial Weapon to appear even in Jueqing Immortal Domain now. Could it be that the Era of Great Strife is coming?"
The speaker was the current Dragon Emperor of the Dragon Clan, a Quasi-Emperor Seventh Layer Expert whose cultivation was comparable to the Dragon Clan Old Ancestor. He was the foremost person among the Dragon Clan under the three great ancestors!
The Dragon Clan Experts standing below, upon hearing the Dragon Emperor's words, all showed solemn expressions, their hearts filled with worry.
After all, the death of a Quasi-Emperor Seventh Layer Expert was a huge loss for any force.
Just then, a young Dragon Clan cultivator standing beside the Dragon Emperor suddenly stepped forward and said:
"Father Emperor, Imperial Weapons appearing one after another may be an ominous sign. It's best if our Dragon Clan stays out of it for now."
The young man's name was Long Aotian, the son of the Dragon Emperor, and also the current Crown Prince of the Dragon Clan.
"Aotian is right. Our Dragon Clan should keep a low profile in the coming days." The Dragon Emperor nodded slightly, his expression serious.
The young man named Long Aotian, seeing this, said no more but slowly returned to his original position.
But in his eyes, two faint, unusual glints appeared:
The major events happening one after another are all related to Imperial Weapons. I wonder if this is a blessing or a curse for me, who obtained the Ancestral Dragon Halberd by chance?
As he thought this, a strange sense of unease rose in the Dragon Clan youth's heart... Just as all sides of the Upper Realm were shaken, the Jueqing Immortal Sect, as the host of Jueqing Immortal Domain, had long been in a state of chaos.
"Sect Master, the incident happened in our Jueqing Immortal Domain. Should the Jueqing Immortal Sect intervene?" An elder asked anxiously.
"For the safety of the Jueqing Immortal Sect, we should not act rashly." Shen Ningshuang said with a solemn expression, weighing the pros and cons.
"But if we let the battle continue, it will definitely affect many innocent people!"
"Alas... this is the only way!"
Shen Ningshuang sighed softly, a hint of helplessness in her eyes.
At this moment, she only hoped that First Elder Han Xue could bring Yanran back to the Jueqing Immortal Sect safe and sound as soon as possible.
As for other matters, the Jueqing Immortal Sect did not want to get too involved.
However, the next voice completely shattered the current tranquility.
"Sect Master, the First Elder's life tablet is shattered!"
"What!!"
Shen Ningshuang was instantly shocked, her face turning pale as paper.
Then, without the slightest hesitation, she flashed and disappeared before the eyes of the Jueqing Immortal Sect members.
"Yanran, Master is coming. You must not be in trouble!!"
