Chapter 242: Chapter 242: The Sword Intent That Silences Heaven and Earth!

The moment the Vast Star Suppressing Heaven Boundless Sword was unleashed, a majestic panorama of the starry sea unfolded above the sky, occupying the vision of all cultivators within the Supreme Sect.

When the Demon Ancestor had previously attacked the Northern Territory, this sword array had also appeared, but only the frontline cultivators had seen it. Now, ninety percent of the cultivators within the Supreme Sect were seeing this sword array for the first time, and they were all astounded.

Especially the disciples who had joined the Supreme Sect in the past few decades; they were utterly stupefied.

A sword array capable of changing the heavens, how many years of cultivation would it take to reach such a level?

Within the Luotian Floating City Battle Array, Sage Bi Luo was locked in by the Sword Intent of the Vast Star Suppressing Heaven Boundless Sword. The moment the infinite starry sea appeared, he felt his mana solidify within him, a suppression so intense that it made his heart pound.

Sage Bi Luo's face paled, regret creeping into his heart.

He had thought that Sword Venerable Fudao was merely a Wandering Immortal. After all, Sword Venerable Fudao had previously only slain Loose Immortals. Despite knowing he might not be a match for Fudao, he believed he could at least gauge his opponent's strength.

Now, feeling the Sword Intent of Fudao, he was reminded of the insignificance he felt a million years ago.

The gap between them was immense, at least a full major realm apart!

He was a Wandering Immortal, so Sword Venerable Fudao must be…

"Heaven and Earth…" Sage Bi Luo muttered through gritted teeth. This time, he did not call out to Heaven and Earth, knowing he couldn't escape and had no choice but to fight to the bitter end.

After a brief moment of silence, the Supreme Sect exploded in an uproar.

Countless disciples of the Supreme Sect raised their arms and cheered; the high-level cultivators on the Heavenly Repair Platform were equally excited, with Zuo Yijian beside the Heaven-Cutting Axe even kneeling down in a posture of devout worship.

In the Third Medicine Valley.

Over nine hundred disciples were similarly excited, shouting the name of Sword Venerable Fudao.

You Yingying saw Sword Venerable Fudao in action for the first time, her small mouth agape with an expression of incredulity.

Yang Jian was also frightened. What kind of sword array was this?

Too exaggerated!

He couldn't help but look at Gu An, who also wore a shocked expression.

Could Sword Venerable Fudao not be his master?

Indeed, he had not sensed his master's mana dissipating.

"Pay close attention and see how much you can comprehend," Gu An's voice suddenly reached Yang Jian's ears, making him widen his eyes in astonishment.

Was his master really Sword Venerable Fudao?

This sword array…

How did he accomplish it?

He didn't see him make a move!

Already having formed his core, Yang Jian felt he had a deep understanding of immortal cultivation, but today, his master's technique overturned his comprehension.

The Vast Star Suppressing Heaven Boundless Sword was high above, far from the Third Medicine Valley. No one would have thought that Sword Venerable Fudao was hiding here.

Yang Jian had thought that Sword Venerable Fudao was up in that vast starry sea, overlooking all beings.

At that moment, the stars in the vast sea burst into light, and one by one, stars began to fall, more and more, densely packed, with a momentum that suggested the sky was collapsing, bringing the clamor of Heaven and Earth to a sudden halt.

All beings looked up, their eyes wide and silent, as if witnessing an immortal phenomenon!

Countless stars fell, bursting with sword qi, causing the trees of the mountains and rivers to sway violently, and dust to be swept away into the distance.

Within the Inner Sect City, Li Ya stayed in a courtyard, looking up at the Vast Star Suppressing Heaven Boundless Sword, secretly alarmed.

Could the Taicang Divine-Shocking Sword reach such a degree?

He turned his head to look at the Divine Exotic Immortal Spirit on his shoulder and asked, "Could Divine Exotic City withstand this sword with its power?"

Withstand?

I almost got killed by him and you're asking me that?

The Divine Exotic Immortal Spirit, feeling the Sword Intent from the sky, could confirm that Sword Venerable Fudao was indeed his master.

He replied, "Not sure."

His voice, full of childishness, contrasted sharply with his inner thoughts.

Li Ya continued watching the light screen in the sky, wanting to see if Sage Bi Luo could withstand a single strike from Sword Venerable Fudao.

...

Facing the endless stream of Star Sword Energy, Sage Bi Luo shouted angrily, raising his staff as surging mana flowed into two Azure Dragons, which were wreathed in fierce flames and strong winds as they soared into the sky.

The dragon's roar exploded!

Countless people held their breath!

Numerous streams of Star Sword Energy fell, colliding with the dragons in midair!

The gigantic Azure Dragons, ridge-like, were blocked abruptly. Starting from the dragon's head, they were shattered one after another, dissolving into azure winds sweeping across the world.

In an instant, the two Azure Dragons were obliterated by the Star Sword Energy, the power of the sword qi was unstoppable!

Sage Bi Luo was illuminated by the sword light, his eyes widened, filled with fear.

As the relentless Star Sword Energy poured into the Luotian Floating City Battle Array, a resplendent sword light erupted, causing Heaven and Earth to lose color, and countless beings to close their eyes.

Blinded, only the sound of the wind could be heard!

Several breaths later, cultivators gradually regained their vision.

As more and more people opened their eyes, when they saw the scene within the light screen in the sky, their hearts raced.

The Luotian Floating City Battle Array remained, but its golden light at the base fluctuated violently, on the verge of dispersing, while Sage Bi Luo, kneeling inside, maintained a raised staff stance. The staff in his hands was only half remaining, smoldering, and he was covered in blood, his hair disheveled and utterly battered.

Sage Bi Luo trembled all over, his bulging eyes bloodshot.

The infinite starry panorama was slowly dissipating, signaling the end of the battle.

Sage Bi Luo's heart filled with endless fear.

Luckily, he had sought battle before the Heavenly Ranking Tournament; otherwise, at any other time, he might have perished.

He couldn't even withstand a single move from Sword Venerable Fudao…

Gritting his teeth, he wobbled to his feet, turning and flying towards the horizon, rapidly escaping the Luotian Floating City Battle Array and disappearing to the edge of the sky.

When he came, he was wildly boastful, but when he left, he was a defeated silence.

Heaven and Earth erupted in thunderous cheers.

"So strong! This is the strength of Sword Venerable Fudao?"

"That Sage Bi Luo was so arrogant before; who would have thought he'd be defeated so completely."

"If the sect leader hadn't set the rules, I bet he'd be dead." Sёarᴄh the Novёlƒire.n(e)t website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.

"No kidding, once Sword Venerable Fudao makes a move, who can survive?"

"It's said the Vice Sect Leader survived; could he also be an Immortal?"

Disciples of the Supreme Sect jeered at Sage Bi Luo and praised the overwhelming power of Sword Venerable Fudao. Even disciples from other sects were excited, though the great cultivators preparing for the Heavenly Ranking Tournament grew tense. Read latest chapters on m_v l-NovelFire.net

After this battle, they dared not act recklessly. The Sword Intent just now had snuffed out any fighting spirit.

The morale of the Supreme Sect soared, the sect bustling as if celebrating the New Year.

Once the Sword Intent illusion above the sky completely disappeared, the Luotian Floating City Battle Array also returned to its full state.

"The first match of the Heavenly Ranking Tournament, Zhou Zu of Heaven Sect versus Gu Xuan of the Supreme Sect!"

Lv Baitian's voice rang out again, this time brimming with dominance, as if he were Sword Venerable Fudao himself.

Following his words, Zhou Zu and Gu Xuan flew into the array. Zhou Zu's face was complicated, while Gu Xuan looked spirited. They exchanged a few words, judging by the mouth movements, it seemed Gu Xuan was mocking the Zhou Family's choice.

In the Third Medicine Valley.

Gu An stood up and said, "You all keep watching, I'll go fetch something from inside."

An Xin and Xiaochuan nodded, while You Yingying remained immersed in the grandeur of Sword Venerable Fudao.

Yang Jian watched Gu An's departing figure, his mind speculating.

He didn't bother thinking about the fate of Sage Bi Luo; instead, he began to recall the magnificence of the Vast Star Suppressing Heaven Boundless Sword.

He had thought that executing Sword Dao required a sword, but his master had neither drawn a sword nor moved an inch earlier, yet a sword array was created by mere thought?

Unbelievable!

Yang Jian felt a surge of hot blood in his chest.

One day, he too would create such divine skills!

...

Covered in blood, Sage Bi Luo swiftly flew off the continent, unable to calm his heart, fearing that Sword Venerable Fudao might pursue him.

At the same time, his eyes were filled with rage.

"Damn the Seven Stars Spirit Realm for such inaccurate intelligence, no wonder they sent me as cannon fodder, despicable!"

Sage Bi Luo thought hatefully as he cursed the Seven Stars Spirit Realm.

He took out an elixir and quickly swallowed it, speeding up his flight.

As he passed an island, a hand suddenly landed on his shoulder, his face changed dramatically, and before he could react, an immense force he had never felt before pressed down, causing his body to plummet rapidly.

Boom!

Dust erupted from the forest in the depths of the island, causing the entire island to quake, with waves surging on the surrounding sea.

The dust cleared, trees lay toppled, and a massive crater appeared.

Under the sunlight, Sage Bi Luo knelt within the crater, a dark purple demonic hand on his shoulder. Looking back, it was Gu An in the Nine Extremes Yin Yang Body state.

Sage Bi Luo was terrified, struggling to look back, his pupils dilated in shock.

He couldn't stand up, nor could his Primordial Spirit emerge; at that moment, he was like a mere mortal, powerless to resist.

His terror peaked, and despair cloaked his heart.

"Sword Venerable… I…" Sage Bi Luo stuttered, but before he could finish, a terrifying Divine Sense surged into his mind, causing his eyes to lose their luster.

The sea breeze blew, scattering the nearby dust and fluttering Sage Bi Luo's tattered robes.

Gu An used the Soul Capturing Skill to search Sage Bi Luo's memories.

Not long after, he retracted his Divine Sense, his right palm igniting with Three Pure Ones True Fire, swiftly enveloping Sage Bi Luo.

Even though Sage Bi Luo was just a tool, daring to provoke him meant death.

If Gu An had not been a match for Sage Bi Luo today, he would have been the one to die.

In a saying from his past life, showing mercy to one's enemy is being cruel to oneself.

Gu An conveniently took Sage Bi Luo's storage ring, but his mind dwelled on the Seven Stars Spirit Realm.

The force behind Sage Bi Luo's probing of Sword Venerable Fudao was indeed the Seven Stars Spirit Realm.

However, in Sage Bi Luo's memories, there was no encounter with an actual cultivator of the Seven Stars Spirit Realm, only a ghost meeting him for the discussion.

As long as Sage Bi Luo agreed, after the mission, the Seven Stars Spirit Realm would offer him an opportunity to listen to Dao lectures.

What specific Dao, the memories didn't specify, but judging by Sage Bi Luo's excitement, it must be extraordinary.

Could it be the lectures of the Heaven and Earth Flying Immortal?

Could there be a Carefree Primordial Immortal in the Seven Stars Spirit Realm?

Gu An fell into contemplation. Regardless, after today, the Seven Stars Spirit Realm would be fully targeting Sword Venerable Fudao.

It was necessary to probe the depths of the Seven Stars Spirit Realm.

If there was no Carefree Primordial Immortal, it must be eradicated!

Gu An's heart harbored killing intent; without exterminating the Seven Stars Spirit Realm, he wouldn't feel at peace.
