Urban Undying Lord
Chapter 599 - 599 618 First Appearance of the Demon Slayer

599: Chapter 618: First Appearance of the Demon Slayer 599: Chapter 618: First Appearance of the Demon Slayer “A simple sentence,” Ye Xuan’s current state of mind was made clear, and it also made him realize that in the Three Realms, Saints truly reigned supreme, with everyone else merely pawns in their games.

Ye Xuan’s spirit trembled slightly because he had discovered something extremely terrifying, and something he had overlooked.

Chan Sect, Yuanshi Tianzun!

Since his entry into the Earth Immortal Realm, he had killed countless disciples of the Chan Sect, and when he ascended to the position of Heavenly Emperor, he had severely suppressed the Chan Sect.

If Yuanshi Tianzun were to appear, he could probably scatter his soul in an instant.

No!

It wasn’t even necessary for Yuanshi Tianzun to make a move, just the appearance of a Quasi-Saint who had cut off one corpse would be enough to overwhelm him, and his only fate would be death.

A feeling called fear grew in Ye Xuan’s heart, which made his expression extremely solemn.

He had always thought that Saints could not appear in the world, but now it seemed that it was not that Saints couldn’t appear, but rather that his Cultivation was insignificant in the eyes of Saints.

If he really intended to destroy the foundation of the Chan Sect, how could Yuanshi Tianzun let it go?

Boom!

The stars stirred, the scene dissipated, and the Heavenly Sect Master flicked his sleeve, distorting this world once again.

When the two reappeared, they were back amidst green mountains and rivers.

“What are you thinking about?” the Heavenly Sect Master asked with a smile.

“I’m thinking, if Yuanshi Tianzun wants to kill me, wouldn’t I be obliterated?” replied Ye Xuan, returning from his thoughts, his voice deep.

“Ha ha!”

Hearing Ye Xuan’s words, the Heavenly Sect Master burst into laughter, his gaze towards Ye Xuan becoming incredibly strange, yet he spoke gently, “My fellow brother, Yuanshi, is overly cautious and always deliberates thoroughly.

You are the seventh Heavenly Determined Saint; he would never dare to strike at you.”

“Heavenly Determined Saint?”

Ye Xuan was slightly startled; this was not the first time he had heard these four words.

The Nine Heaven Mysterious Maiden had told him before, and Nuwa had guessed he was a Heavenly Determined Saint.

Now, the Heavenly Sect Master was also saying he was the seventh Heavenly Determined Saint.

How could Ye Xuan not be astonished?

Seeing Ye Xuan’s puzzled expression, the Heavenly Sect Master smiled lightly and said, “There are seven Saint Positions between Heaven and Earth.

This last Saint Position has always been vacant.

If I am not mistaken, this seventh Saint Position is meant for you, but you have not yet received the Hongmeng Purple Qi.

Once the opportunity arises, you can become a Saint instantly.”

“I am just curious,” murmured the Heavenly Sect Master, his gaze at Ye Xuan filled with curiosity, “which type of Great Merit you will rely on to become a Saint after receiving the Hongmeng Purple Qi.”

As is known, the six Saints between Heaven and Earth were all made Saints through Great Merit.

Naturally, the seventh Saint would be no exception.

Once Ye Xuan obtained the Hongmeng Purple Qi, and with great merit, Heavenly Dao would bestow Merit Golden Light, enabling him to become a Saint instantly.

This was also the process for the appearance of the seventh Saint.

In the Primordial Beginning, The Three Pure Ones established their teachings and became Saints, as did Zhunti with his leadership, and Nuwa with her celestial mending and creation of people, all possessing great merit, which established the six Saints.

But today’s Three Realms were not like the Primordial Beginning; there was no great merit available for Ye Xuan, which naturally made the Heavenly Sect Master very curious about what the process of Ye Xuan becoming a Saint would look like.

Hearing the words of the Heavenly Sect Master, Ye Xuan remained silent, for he simply did not believe he was the seventh Heavenly Determined Saint.

His path was that of Proving Dao with Power, which had nothing to do with becoming a Saint through merit.

Yet Ye Xuan was greatly puzzled; why did everyone, from Nuwa, the Heavenly Sect Master, and even the other Great Saints, believe that he would be the seventh Saint?

Ye Xuan did not voice his doubts because he knew that his safety was due to the Six Saints mistaking him as the seventh Saint, which made the Heavenly Sect Master value him highly.

“I understand your purpose, my friend, but the Undying Immortal Scripture that you cultivate is exceedingly difficult to practice.

Although it is indeed commendable that you have reached the fifth level of Daluo, stepping into the Third Water Dividing Ridge of Daluo quickly would still require hundreds of thousands of years without.”

The Heavenly Sect Master smiled as he spoke; he didn’t need Ye Xuan to declare his purpose, knowing that Ye Xuan was here for his cultivation.

“Please, Sect Master, grant me this request.

If I ever achieve sainthood, I will surely repay today’s kindness in the future,” Ye Xuan earnestly stated without concealing his intentions.

“Very well!”

The Heavenly Sect Master, clad in black, was surrounded by a brilliant Chaos Light.

He had been waiting for Ye Xuan’s words, for the karma between Saints was immense; the favor Ye Xuan owed him today would be unimaginable once he became a Saint.

“Array, arise!”

Clang, clang, clang!

The sound of the Heavenly Sword rang out, the Light of Slaughter piercing through ancient and modern times, this realm crumbling inch by inch.

Three sword lights silently appeared around the Heavenly Sect Master, and the Immortal Extinguishing Sword in Ye Xuan’s hand instantly returned to the side of the Heavenly Sect Master.

An unimaginable slaughtering blue light enveloped the heavens, instantly submerging this world.

Clang, clang, clang!

Four swords circled around, their killing aura astonishing—these were the Four Immortal Slaying Swords, the foremost killing weapons under the Heavenly Dao, and also the strongest Spiritual Treasure in the hands of the Heavenly Sect Master, possessing supreme power to destroy heaven and earth.

Rumble!

An Array Diagram, surrounded by blue light, inscribed with ancient Immortal Text, had the Four Immortal Slaying Swords soaring and hovering, solidifying at four corners of the Array Diagram, and immediately pressing down towards Ye Xuan.

“The Immortal Slaying Sword Formation, imbued with the murderous aura from ancient to present, can aid your breakthrough of the Daluo Third Water Dividing Ridge, but I must warn you now, if you cannot withstand the terrifying power of the Immortal Slaying Sword Formation, you will also die beneath it.”

The Heavenly Sect Master stood with his hands behind his back, advising Ye Xuan as the Immortal Slaying Sword Formation hovered above Ye Xuan’s head.

Slivers of slaughtering blue light fell downwards, enveloping Ye Xuan completely.

“Please, Sect Master, grant me this.”

Ye Xuan spoke with resolve because, having chosen to meet with the Heavenly Sect Master, he was already prepared to endure severe agony to swiftly ascend to the Third Water Dividing Ridge of Daluo, since only through this could he have the courage to face a Quasi-Saint.

“Very well!”

The Heavenly Sect Master gave a slight smile, his sword pointing towards the heavens as he gestured towards the Immortal Slaying Sword Formation with a cold voice echoing in Ye Xuan’s ears.

“The Immortal Slaying Sword Formation, an Innate Treasure, harbors boundless slaughtering power.

How much you can absorb depends entirely on your ability, but I hope you will act within your limits.”

Rumble!

The Immortal Slaying Sword Formation lit up, strands of slaughtering blue light completely submerging Ye Xuan, and a muffled grunt emerged from his mouth, his handsome face beginning to contort, clearly enduring unimaginable agony.

“Immortal Slaying Sword Formation, its power infinite.

Let’s see whether you can withstand the Immortal Slaying Sword Formation’s strength, and if you truly are the seventh Heavenly Determined Saint?” The Heavenly Sect Master no longer smiled; his expression turned extremely solemn, and his gaze toward Ye Xuan was tinged with great hope.
