Chapter 3720 - 3720: Nanming Yuyan

“I’m only guarding this sacred place. After all, by constantly expanding outwards from here, the Sword Sect of Violet Heavens’ territory gradually covered the entire Sword Region of Violet Heavens.”

“Many parts of the Sword Region of Violet Heavens now belong to others. I can ignore those parts, but I can’t let you destroy this sect that holds tremendous significance to the entire Immortals’ World no matter what.”

“You can say that I’m doing as I please. You can also say I am swollen with confidence. In short, if you want to destroy the land beneath our feet, you better get through me first,” the Sword Heart Ancestor said firmly. He stared sharply at the expert from the Vermillion Bird clan.

The expert from the Vermillion Bird clan sneered. “Sword Heart, originally, I came here because I heard the Immortal Sect of Colossal Elephants had been destroyed. I wanted to investigate this and find the person responsible. I had no intention of coming into any conflict with your twelve courts of heaven. However, you never, ever should have said something like that before me, as that is looking down on our Sacred Beast clan.”

“In the eyes of the Sacred Beast clan, the so-called courts of heaven are nothing apart from the Waymight clan. What gives you the courage to say something like that in front of me?”

The expert from the Vermillion Bird clan’s tone became colder and colder, as well as more and more aggressive. Her tone also contained a sense of contempt towards the courts of heaven.

The Sword Heart Ancestor’s face sank. He said slowly, “In other words, the Vermillion Bird clan that can represent the Sacred Beast clan to a certain extent plans on destroying the ancestral grounds of the Sword Sect of Violet Heavens purely based on the claims from the Immortal Sect of Colossal Elephants?”

“The people from the Sword Sect of Violet Heavens are all gone, so what’s the point of preserving this barren land? After all, many organisations have produced Grand Exalts throughout the history of the Immortals’ World. Which one of them did not make a colossal contribution to the world? Yet in the end, weren’t they all buried in the flow of time? There have even been many Grand Exalt organisations that have been completely eradicated.”

“Even organisations with Grand Exalts are like that. What makes the Sword Sect of Violet Heavens an exception?”n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om

The expert from the Vermillion Bird clan spoke as a surging presence erupted from her body. Flames flickered from her eyes. “Sword immortal, since you want to obstruct our Sacred Beast clan, I’d like to see just how capable you are after planting half a foot in the Eighth Heavenly Layer.”

When he heard that, the Sword Heart Ancestor shook his head with a gentle sigh. “When I watched over the Sword Sect of Violet Heavens, one of the ancestors from the Azure Dragon clan of your four imperial clans faced me when he possessed the same cultivation as me. He believed that his bloodline was powerful enough, yet he still stood no chance and was heavily injured. In the end, it turned out that the Azure Dragon clan was a group of sore losers. The leader of the Azure Dragon clan appeared personally, abusing his superior cultivation to heavily injure me.”

“Nanming Yuyan, I understand that the pure bloodline of a Grand Exalt flows through your body. You practise the cultivation method of a Grand Exalt, and you know secret techniques created by a Grand Exalt, which gives you extremely great strength. However, am I any different? All of your various advantages are non-existent before me. Now, you’re half a cultivation realm below me as well. You aren’t my opponent,” the Sword Heart Ancestor said.

Nanming Yuyang was the name of the expert from the Vermillion Bird clan. She was a peak Seventh Heavenly Layer Immortal Exalt.

She had already remained at this cultivation for several million years.

“Little Sword Heart, you’re far too confident!” Nanming Yuyan sneered. She opened her hand, and a small, red umbrella appeared silently. Each feather on there contained the dense power of the Laws of Fire. The owner of each feather was a supreme expert that had reached the Ninth Heavenly Layer of Immortal Exalt.

In particular, the shaft of the feather radiated with a chilling presence.

It was the bone of a Grand Exalt!

The god artifact was forged from the bone of a Grand Exalt and several dozen feathers from Ninth Heavenly Layer Immortal Exalts, which made it extremely powerful. Even though it could not be regarded as a sovereign god artifact, it was still one of the strongest artifacts beneath sovereign god artifacts. It was at the same level as the tiny bell in the Space-splitting Venerable’s possession.

At this moment, each feather on the umbrella shone with blinding red light before producing devastating fire that engulfed the Sword Heart Ancestor.

Immediately, the temperature in the surroundings skyrocketed. In an instant, millions of kilometres of land had been charred. All of the vegetation turned to ash.

Nanming Yuyan clearly struck without any fears or qualms. She completely neglected the damage she caused to the surrounding environment. Just the tremendous presence from the flames had already caused devastating damage to the area.

After all, with a pure Grand Exalt’s bloodline, her strength was well above the Space-splitting Venerable.

Faced with the rolling flames, the Sword Heart Ancestor was unfazed. A sword appeared in his hand as he directly slashed out, producing a giant crack in the space before him that sucked away all of the fire.

“If you want to fight, then go to outer space and I’ll fight you to your heart’s content,” the Sword Heart Ancestor said before turning into a streak of light and shooting off into the sky, vanishing into the sea of stars instantly.

“Hmph, Immortal Sect of Myriad Swords, you defeated the Azure Dragon clan during the battle at the same level in the past, which embarrassed our Sacred Beast clan. This time, I’ll show you exactly how I destroy the half-step Eighth Heavenly Layer Sword Heart Ancestor while at the Seventh Heavenly Layer!”

Gazing in the direction that the Sword Heart Ancestor had vanished in, Nanming Yuyan let out a sinister sneer that completely contrasted against her alluring appearance.

In the next moment, Nanming Yuyan shot off into outer space like a bolt of lightning, vanishing instantly.

With the Sword Heart Ancestor and Nanming Yuyan’s departure, many of the senses of the souls on the Reverent Observance Heaven were withdrawn. Shortly afterwards, various figures radiating with powerful presences emerged from everywhere, making their way into outer space.

These were all Immortal Exalts of the Reverent Observance Heaven, planning to spectate this rare battle.

“Let’s go and take a look as well. This time, we have the Sacred Beast clan backing us up, so even if these courts of heaven come, we have nothing to fear,” the Space-splitting Venerable wiped away the blood from his mouth and said to the six others.

“Hmph, without the Samsaric Immortal Exalt’s deterrence, coupled with three million years of dwindling, the Sword Sect of Violet Heavens’ reputation in the Immortals’ World has almost all been lost. This time, it is without a doubt the best opportunity to completely erase the Sword Sect of Violet Heavens.” The Cloud-treading Ancestor sneered. Destroying the Sword Sect of Violet Heavens did not necessarily correspond to killing all of their disciples. In reality, killing some low level disciples did not hold much meaning.

As long as they erased the place of glory that belonged to the Sword Sect of Violet Heavens, the Sword Sect of Violet Heavens would basically only exist in name.

As for rising up again, they did not think it was possible.
