Chapter 873: Chapter 624 The Pursuit of the Sword Cultivator

"You!"

The elder was inflamed with rage, Wang Yang had actually slaughtered the Mountain Master of the Nine Great Sword Mountains right in front of him, completely ignoring the Nine Swords Sect.

"You should worry about how to escape from the hands of these three Sect Masters."

Wang Yang’s words were mocking, with a thought, the Blood Centipede turned into a streak of blood light and entered his body. With Cao Man, he sped off towards the Western Direction.

At the same time, in the void, Muxue carried Lingyu, closely following behind. Four figures flickered and disappeared.

The three elders did not stop them because Xiang Zhen and the other two’s aura had already locked onto them. It seemed a large battle was inevitable.

"Xiang Zhen, Huaying, Liu Yun, have you three thought it through?"

"Heh, what’s there to think through? The Nine Swords Sect knew our disciples were following Wang Yang on their training journey, yet they still attacked. What are they plotting? We both know very well. Isn’t it laughable to say such things now?"

Liu Yun shook his head with a smile, his words filled with ridicule. From the beginning, the Nine Swords Sect never intended to reconcile with the True Martial Sect and Huaying Sect!

In True Dragon City, the Young Sect Master of the True Martial Sect, Cao Man, had slaughtered the disciples and elders of seven Sword Mountains and proclaimed that the people of the Nine Swords Sect were not allowed to step into the domain of the True Martial Sect. This matter was known to all.

Not long ago, Huaying of the Huaying Sect had forcibly unleashed her Holy Domain outside Qinghua City, crushing the disciples of the Nine Swords Sect. The news spread across the entire Western Territory in an instant!

Both incidents, either one, would be unbearable for the Nine Swords Sect, the foremost sect.

The Nine Swords Sect, with its inheritance of thousands of years, had never suffered such humiliation. Their disciples and elders were publicly executed without being able to retaliate.

Ye Qiu’s message was merely a facade, hiding the true plan. The ones really in charge were the three elders.

These three elders were the strongest sword cultivators in the Nine Swords Sect because they wielded the Three Imperial Swords passed down through the sect.

Even though Ye Qiu was the Sect Master, he could not take away the usage rights of the Three Imperial Swords.

Yet neither Ye Qiu nor the three elders had expected Xiang Zhen, Huaying, and Liu Yun to appear here, with such a firm attitude.

What puzzled the three elders was that the Three Imperial Swords combined were impregnable, something Xiang Zhen and the others must know, yet they still showed no signs of retreat.

"Quick battle, quick decision!"

The three elders glanced at each other and nodded in unison. Three sword lights shot skywards, tearing apart the void.

Xiang Zhen and Huaying smiled, their eyes both falling on Liu Yun.

Liu Yun shrugged helplessly, his figure instantly dissolving into the void and disappearing.

"Be careful!"

The three elders immediately stood together. The Three Imperial Swords were invincible combined, but if split, none of them would be Xiang Zhen’s match in a solo fight.

"Celestial Sword Severing the Void!"

The elder wielding the Heaven Emperor Sword shouted, and the sword qi soared to the Ninth Heaven, splitting heaven and earth in an instant!

"I was waiting for you to use your sword, Lingyin’s Technique of the Thousand Autumn Dream!"

The elder wielding the Heaven Emperor Sword felt his Sea of Consciousness tremble and blinked to find himself in another space. More accurately, he was in Liu Yun’s Minor World!

"How is this possible!"

The elder exclaimed in shock. The Celestial Sword Severing the Void had already shattered the space laws, meaning the space around the three elders had been completely severed.

Liu Yun shouldn’t have been able to traverse the space. If he appeared around the elder, he would be torn apart by the sword qi, leaving no place to hide.

"Nothing is impossible. As long as my Technique of the Thousand Autumn Dream catches your aura, it can activate. If you hadn’t used your Sword Technique, I might have had some difficulty initiating it!"

"Heh, even in a one-on-one, I can still kill you!"

"I wonder where your confidence comes from. Once the Three Imperial Swords are separated, the most powerful Trinity of Heaven, Earth, and Man Great Formation is lost. Ready to depart?"

Liu Yun’s voice was extremely cold. The area under the Technique of the Thousand Autumn Dream was his Minor World, also known as the Holy Domain. Within his Domain, Liu Yun was the law.

Even if the elder activated his Sword Domain, he would still be suppressed by Liu Yun. After all, Liu Yun had the advantage of initiating his Holy Domain first.

Outside the battlefield, as the elder wielding the Heaven Emperor Sword suddenly disappeared, the expressions of the elders with the Earth Emperor Sword and the Human Emperor Sword changed drastically.

The Celestial Sword Severing the Void Technique had clearly cut off the space nodes; how did Liu Yun approach?

"Each takes one, quick battle, quick decision!"

Xiang Zhen stretched lazily, smiling at Huaying as he spoke. But to the two elders, the words were piercing, for these were the exact words the elder wielding the Heaven Emperor Sword had just said!

"Alright!"

Huaying did not hesitate, nodding in agreement. Suddenly, she vanished along with Xiang Zhen, charging at the two elders from left and right.

At this moment, Wang Yang and his group had already left, en route to the Youdu Mountain Range, not worrying at all about Xiang Zhen and the others.

Xiang Zhen, Huaying, and Liu Yun all bore the aura of the celestial Dao Origin Force, indicating that the foundations of these three sects were immensely deep.

Although the Nine Swords Sect was the foremost sect, in terms of foundation, it was far inferior to the True Martial Sect and the Huaying Sect, sects that had preserved relatively complete inheritances from ancient times.

What the Nine Swords Sect inherited were ancient renowned swords and fragmentary records of Ancient Imperial Swordsmanship. Many of their Sword Techniques had already been lost.

The ancient records of the Imperial Swordsmanship, found in the secret archives of the celestial Mountain, were incomplete at best.

So although the Nine Swords Sect was nominally an ancient inheritance, in reality, its foundation was far less profound than that of the True Martial Sect and other such sects.
