"Li Su!"
"Chop off his head!"
Yang Hao sat up, his imposing aura surging. In this moment, it was as if the Great Han Divine Emperor Yang Hao had long been established in the west, rather than just emerging.
"As you command!"
Li Su drew his long saber, its boundless sharpness far exceeding its previous keenness. From afar, it slashed wounds across Tuoba Zhang's cheeks.
"Jia Bin!"
"Hao Chen!"
"Lei Ce!"
"What are you waiting for!!!"
After gasping for breath, Tuoba Zhang brandished his cold saber and fled, evading the terrifying sharpness.
"You must think clearly. One more step forward, and it will be a complete upheaval!"
Prime Minister Li Si, his face wearing a smile, showed no sense of urgency.
"A complete upheaval?"
"I, this Cave Master, have roamed the Demon Sea Marsh for five million years and have never seen what a complete upheaval is. You humans are quite boastful. Do you think this will stop my slaughter?"
Looking at the humans standing in the square of Xuanzheng Hall, Jia Bin's lips twitched slightly, revealing a chilling smile. In his hand, he held a weapon that was neither a saber nor a sword, resembling a giant crocodile skull. Its sharp fangs sliced through the very void.
"Speaking of which, I'm getting a bit itchy to fight. Tuoba Zhang, you owe me a favor!"
Hao Chen, the fifth palace master of the Tai Xuan Palace, chuckled disdainfully and gripped a Dragon Whisker Trident.
"How could this Hall Master be left out!"
"Palm Thunder!"
Boom!
Lei Ce's hands opened, and lightning surged in all directions.
"Xin Qiji!"
"Xie Lüguang!"
"Gao Xianzhi!"
"Slay the enemy!"
On the imperial throne, Yang Hao's expression was solemn. The Great Han now possessed over twenty Great Sage realm heroes, which meant over twenty Saint Lord realm powerhouses.
Forces like the Demon Sea Marsh and the Thunder Cloud Palace were no longer in Yang Hao's eyes!
The Saint Lord powerhouses of these four forces, combined, were not as numerous as the heroes of the Great Han. These forces were the most crucial link for the Great Han's establishment in the west in Yang Hao's eyes!
It was simple: the destruction of these four forces would declare the might of the Great Han Divine Dynasty!
"As you command!"
Xin Qiji and three others stepped forward and stood in the void.
"By the Divine Emperor's decree, slay the enemy!"
In Xin Qiji's eyes, countless brilliant sword energies flashed. The flowing sword energy shook all the swords in Chang'an City into submission!
Clang!
The long saber was unsheathed, and immediately boundless sword energy filled the air. A faint scent of battlefield blood and mellow wine permeated all directions!
"What a powerful sword cultivator!"
Tai Shang stirred faintly. He wanted to make a move and spar with this hero. But suddenly, three more sword energies shot out from within Chang'an City, clashing in the void.
One was fierce! One was free-spirited! One was sharp!
These three sword energies of different auras were no weaker than Xin Qiji, who walked with his saber in the void, and were even more terrifying!
"Weak scholar, with your delicate frame, you dare to try and slay this Cave Master? A hundred catties of meat wouldn't even be enough for one meal!"
Jia Bin's eyes narrowed as he looked at the sword energy filling the air. He spoke provocatively, but his grip on his weapon did not loosen. Tuoba Zhang had been injured by Li Su's saber earlier; this was a cautionary tale. However, he was no pushover. His strength was top-tier among the beings in the Demon Sea Marsh, or else how could he hold the position of Cave Master!
"Blade of Death!"
"Swift!"
Gripping his giant blade, Jia Bin leaped forward. The blade spun rapidly in his hand, its sharp fangs tearing through the void, stirring up countless gusts of wind. The boundless death energy pressed down, making the heavens seem on the verge of collapse, and the world gradually darkened.
"Feeble human, exert all your strength!"
Gripping his blade, Jia Bin roared. A phantom crocodile figure emerged from his body. The terrifying winds stirred by his blade became a giant meat grinder, or like a beast that devoured the heavens, shattering the void inch by inch and rushing towards Xin Qiji!
Boom!
The flashing sword energy erupted between them and the terrifying sky-devouring beast, colliding fiercely. For a time, a vast expanse of darkness appeared, occasionally illuminated by streaks of sword energy, or sharp fangs emerging from the blackness, tearing through the void!
"Ancestor Crocodile clan!"
"What immense destructive power!"
Xin Qiji, gripping his slightly vibrating long saber, was somewhat surprised. One-ninth of his sword energy had been shattered by Jia Bin.
However, fortunately, Xin Qiji's sword energy had also put immense pressure on Jia Bin. The first probing exchange between the two had officially ended.
"This Cave Master underestimated you. Such a small frame could actually block my Blade of Death!"
Jia Bin raised his blade, looking at the sword energy entwined around his fangs. Some of the fangs were chipped. These were fangs he had shed three million years ago when he broke through to the Saint Lord realm. They were incredibly hard and imbued with his divine power, making them very compatible with him!
"This Cave Master still doesn't believe it. Today, I will slay a weak human!"
Jia Bin roared, his eyes filled with surging killing intent. The endless winds of his blade raged, and he once again lunged towards Xin Qiji, biting fiercely!
Terrifying void energy poured out through the cracks, merging with the blade's winds, making it even more fearsome and extraordinary!
"Drunk, I examine my sword by lamplight..."
"Eight hundred li, the roasted meat is spread below, fifty strings play the sounds of the frontier."
Xin Qiji gripped his sword tightly, and one line of poetry after another spilled out in resonance with his long saber! Su Dan Novels Net
Behind Xin Qiji, in the boundless sky extending to the horizon, countless tents and campfires materialized, merging the entire sky into a magnificent encampment.
The sound of clear bugles continuously echoed from the four directions of Chang'an.
Clang~~
Suddenly, from the four corners of the void, the sounds of musical instruments arose. Waves of the iron-blooded aura and killing intent of the military camps shot directly into the sky. Under the backdrop of continuous tents, the terrifying power shook countless beings!
Hiss!
On the blade of Xin Qiji's long saber, endless warhorses appeared, galloping across the battlefield, kicking up plumes of dust!
Boom!
Suddenly, the sound of an arrow leaving the bowstring exploded like divine thunder from the nine heavens. At this moment, all the phenomena in the void vanished. Xin Qiji gripped his long saber, laughed heartily, and released it. It shot out like an arrow from a bow, accompanied by thunderous sounds, emitting sharp energy!
"What fine poetry!"
"What a magnificent sword!!"
Gurgle~~
On the square of Xuanzheng Hall, a man in white, with a carefree and unrestrained demeanor, took a gulp of half a pot of fine wine. He looked at the sword that shot out like an arrow from a bow and couldn't help but praise it.
"By the Divine Emperor's command!"
"Slay the enemy!!"
As the long saber was released, it stirred up waves of spiritual energy, manifesting them as the dust kicked up by charging warhorses. Amidst the thunder, the long saber, following his roar, pierced towards Jia Bin!
