Time flowed quickly.
The next day, at dawn.
The powerful figures who had sealed the four directions of Sword City were still there.
To the East…
"Qin Yu."
The First Tier Emperor Venerable who suppressed the East Gate spoke.
He called over a young Half-Emperor and said, "You will fight today."
The youth stepped forward. "Yes."
…
He had stepped forward and was waiting.
Soon, who would come out to fight this time?
"Dong."
Suddenly, the sound of a drum came from within the city.
The guards outside the four gates looked towards Sword City in confusion.
The drum sound, what did it mean?
Sword City was quiet, solitary, and independent.
Today, there was a drum sound, why?
"Something's not right."
The Emperor Venerable at the East Gate frowned. "What a strong killing intent."
Emperor Venerable experts could sense certain energies.
Within Sword City, the killing intent was heavy and intense.
"Be careful."
The Emperor Venerables suppressing the four gates all felt the killing intent within the city. "Could it be that Sword City is about to make a move?"
Of course, it was just speculation.
But speculation did not mean it would not become reality.
The killing intent permeated the air.
Whoosh.
Suddenly, a figure shot up into the sky.
It was only one person, the Second Tier Emperor Venerable Kuang Mu.
Everyone was startled. "What are you doing?"
Kuang Mu had come out, was he going to fight a decisive battle?
The experts at the four gates were all alarmed.
What did it mean for a Second Tier Emperor Venerable to come out?
Was it to fight a decisive battle, or what?
"Make way," Kuang Mu said.
"..."
No one moved.
"Swish swish swish."
From within the city, figures shot up into the sky.
Overlord, Angler, Ninth Sword Cultivator… dozens of people ascended, standing behind Kuang Mu.
Killing intent spread.
The First Tier Emperor Venerable at the East Gate had a solemn expression. "It seems the time has come."
"Yes, the time has come."
Kuang Mu said, "Make way, or today I will surely kill you all."
His gaze swept across the four directions.
The four experts guarding the four directions became serious.
The killing intent was too strong.
They all felt it, an incredibly intense killing intent.
"What should we do?"
The people at the four gates were all at a loss.
The pressure from a Second Tier Emperor Venerable was immense.
But thinking of the decree from the Emperor's Palace, they ultimately did not dare to yield.
"Kuang Mu."
The people from the four directions converged, led by the four First Tier Emperor Venerables.
One of them said in a deep voice, "Although you are a Second Tier Emperor Venerable, the four of us are not afraid of you. Today, you will not leave."
"Is that so?"
Kuang Mu sneered.
Boom.
Blazing flames erupted.
The fire light shot up into the sky.
Killing intent spread.
"Kill."
Kuang Mu attacked directly.
This Second Tier Emperor Venerable unleashed a killing move the moment he attacked.
Boundless flames converged, forming a flaming war spear, which pierced out with a single thrust.
Extreme killing intent, an extreme spear thrust.
The pupils of the four instantly contracted.
"Dodge."
Their first reaction was to dodge.
This spear thrust was too sharp.
Pfft.
Blood splattered.
The four First Tier Emperor Venerables dodged, but those behind them were too slow.
The spear pierced through, and flames erupted.
"Ah…"
Piercing screams echoed through the heavens and earth.
One spear thrust killed ten people.
Ten Half-Emperors were pierced by the flaming spear.
Blood scattered, and their bodies disintegrated.
The faces of the four Emperor Venerables changed.
The next moment, they charged forward together.
"Attack with all your might," the four Emperor Venerables did not dare to be careless.
"Hmph."
The female Emperor Venerable snorted coldly. "Do you think I don't exist?"
Just as she was about to attack, she heard Kuang Mu say, "You go kill the others. These four are mine."
At this moment, Kuang Mu was extremely domineering.
"Kill."
Flames filled the heavens and earth.
A spear swept through the eight directions, attacking with great force, and he clashed with the four First Tier Emperor Venerables.
With the four of them working together, Kuang Mu couldn't truly defeat them for the time being.
However, he was also tied down by Kuang Mu alone.
On the other side, the female Emperor Venerable led her people in slaughtering the Half-Emperors of the Azure Emperor Palace.
"Presumptuous!"
Suddenly, a loud roar echoed through the heavens and earth.
Buzz.
The sky suddenly turned into an ink wash landscape painting.
This scene was somewhat sudden.
The sky turned into a landscape painting, and within the painting, a figure holding a brush walked out.
"Not good."
The female Emperor Venerable's expression changed drastically. "Three-Brush Emperor Venerable…"
"Three Brush" was a codename.
Because he had once killed an Emperor Venerable of the same realm with three brush strokes, he was known as the Three-Brush Emperor Venerable.
He never exceeded three moves when he attacked.
Others also naturally noticed the arrival.
"One brush startles ghosts and gods."
The Three-Brush Emperor Venerable attacked directly.
He made a stroke in the air with his brush.
Just one stroke.
Screech.
The sky seemed to be torn apart by this stroke.
The brush fell.
"Bang bang bang."
Bodies were torn apart from their foreheads.
Bloodstains spread.
Bodies split into two halves and fell from the sky.
One stroke killed more than ten people.
"Run."
The female Emperor Venerable shot up into the sky. "Wind, come."
Gales swirled, forming a tornado.
The female Emperor Venerable was a Wind Element Emperor Venerable. Within the tornado, an Emperor Palace vaguely appeared, suppressing upwards.
The moment she attacked, she unleashed her strongest killing move.
The female Emperor Venerable was not confident she could stop this top-tier Third Tier Emperor Venerable, so she could only give her all.
In the rear, Angler and the others turned and fled.
At this moment, no one would stay behind to hold them back.
No, there was one person.
Overlord…
He didn't move, looking at the figure that seemed to be trampling the entire world under his feet, a fighting spirit rising in his eyes.
At this moment, the Three-Brush Emperor Venerable raised his brush again and struck.
"Second brush startles wind and rain."
It was the second stroke.
Bang.
The tornado was directly cut open.
The Emperor Palace hidden within the tornado also shattered.
"Ah…"
The female Emperor Venerable screamed, her body and Emperor Palace collapsing simultaneously.
The laws and great paths within her body were severed, and she fell from the sky.
The female Emperor Venerable was dead.
This was the power of a top-tier Third Tier Emperor Venerable, and the legendary Three-Brush Emperor Venerable who only needed three strokes to kill.
The first stroke killed more than ten people.
The second stroke took the life of a First Tier Emperor Venerable.
The third stroke had yet to fall…
But his gaze fell upon Kuang Mu.
At this moment, Kuang Mu's heart was wildly screaming, and the aura of death filled his heart.
"It's over."
Kuang Mu despaired.
Under the shroud of death, his movements slowed considerably.
The four First Tier Emperor Venerables attacked with full force, beginning to overwhelm him.
There was no other way, the pressure from the Three-Brush Emperor Venerable was too great.
The Three-Brush Emperor Venerable raised his brush again…
"Hey."
A voice full of fighting spirit rang out.
Overlord had attracted the attention of the Three-Brush Emperor Venerable.
He took a step forward, his eyes filled with intense fighting spirit. "You are very strong. Come kill me, how about that?"
"Overlord, why haven't you left yet?" Kuang Mu was shocked.
He had barely survived, why was he still seeking death?
Overlord ignored him, still looking at the Three-Brush Emperor Venerable in the sky, and smiled. "Come kill me, how about it, or… I'll kill you?"
A Half-Emperor challenged a top-tier Third Tier Emperor Venerable.
The Three-Brush Emperor Venerable's gaze swept across the land.
In his eyes, there were no insignificant figures below the Emperor realm.
He did not even have the mood to look at a provocation from a Half-Emperor.
"Bang."
With just a glance, Overlord's chest suddenly exploded.
A rule power pierced his heart.
"Damn."
Kuang Mu almost cursed.
As for the Three-Brush Emperor Venerable, he had already retracted his gaze.
A Half-Emperor, once noticed by him, was doomed to die.
