Blood flowed into rivers in the entire gorge.
The setting sun was like blood, and it set off the gorge that was dyed red with blood, and it seemed as if only a single color remained in the entire world, a dazzling and resplendent scarlet red.
Suddenly, the sounds of battle and shrill cries had already vanished.
Within the gorge, the group of Demonic Lotusblade Sect disciples stood there, and all of them looked at the four figures that were like gods of death in the sky with terror, and their legs seemed as if they were filled with lead, causing them to be unable to move in the slightest.
They didn't dare flee.
Because they knew that they were unable to flee.
Perhaps, they would still have a chance to escape death by standing here.
The wind blew by, and the extremely dense smell of blood pierced into their noses, causing their countenances to go ghastly pale as their bodies shivered.
Suddenly, a figure descended from high above in the sky.
This was a young man whose clothes were completely dyed red with blood, and the sword in his hand was still ceaselessly dripping with blood, causing him to seem like a peerless god of death.
The expressions of all the Demonic Lotusblade Sect disciples went grim when they saw the blood red clothed young man approaching.
It was precisely this person that had completely slaughtered the three great Sect Leaders of their Demonic Lotusblade Sect, and there were even a few other sixth level Void Initiation Stage Guardian Elders that had died successively at his hands.
The other elders and those senior disciples had all died at the hands of him and the companions by his side.
Duan Lingtian stood at a low altitude above the gorge, and he looked down at the remaining disciples of the Demonic Lotusblade Sect.
Behind him, Feng Tianwu and Qin Xiang followed like shadows, whereas, the Grand Roc even followed by his side and ceaselessly flapped its wings that were like clouds that covered the sky, and its sharp eyes stared at the remaining Demonic Lotusblade Sect disciples.
"Five years ago, before the Azure Forest Tri-Sect annihilated my Seven Star Sword Sect, all the disciples of the Demonic Lotusblade Sect, Origin Convergence Sect, and Snow Moon Sect … Stand out."
Duan Lingtian spoke indifferently, and his tone seemed to be calm, yet it actually concealed killing intent.
As soon as Duan Lingtian finished speaking, the expressions of many people instantly went grim.
These people were already disciples of the Demonic Lotusblade Sect, Origin Convergence Sect, and Snow Moon Sect five years ago, and a portion of them had even participated in the battle that annihilated the Seven Star Sword Sect.
Now, they were naturally able to guess what Duan Lingtian had in mind when he asked them to leave.
So, no one dared leave.
"Ten breaths … I'll give you ten breaths of time."
Duan Lingtian continued, "After ten breaths, if no one comes out … all of you will die!"
When these calm words entered into the ears of the group of Demonic Lotusblade Sect disciples, it was like the sound of death, and it caused their expressions to go grim.
For a time, the Demonic Lotusblade Sect disciples were in chaos.
"I know you, you were already a disciple of the Snow Moon Sect long before the Seven Star Sword Sect was annihilated … Quickly leave, don't implicate us!"
A disciple that entered the Azure Forest Tri-Sect later pointed at another person by his side.
Immediately, this person aroused the anger of the crowd.
"Get out!"
"Get out of here!"
…
For a moment, this person became the target of public criticism. In the end, he could only walk out of the crowd with a sad face and stand outside alone.
"Seven more breaths of time."
Duan Lingtian continued.
"I remember you too. You were a disciple of the Gui Yuan Sect five years ago. Get out!"
"You, get out! Four years ago, when I'd just arrived, you were still bragging about how many Seven Star Sword Sect disciples you'd killed. "
…
In next to no time, almost 100 people were pushed out from the crowd of Demonic Lotusblade Sect disciples.
The expressions of the almost 100 people that were pushed out were ghastly pale to the extreme, and they stood outside alone with shivering bodies, as if they'd already guessed their end.
"Ten breaths of time is up."
Duan Lingtian's gaze descended onto the almost 100 people that were pushed out, and killing intent that shot into the sky swept out from his body to envelop them.
Instantly, the expressions of the almost 100 people that were pushed out went grim.
"Duan Lingtian, don't kill me! Even though I've been a disciple of the Snow Moon Sect since long ago, I didn't follow the sect to annihilate your Seven Star Sword Sect that time. "
"Me too. I've utterly never been to the Seven Star Sword Sect … Spare me. "
…
More than half of the almost 100 people that were pushed out spoke with aggrieved and flustered expressions.
But Duan Lingtian paid no attention to them.
At this moment, he would rather kill the wrong person than let them off!
Otherwise, he'd let down the numerous souls of the Seven Star Sword Sect.
Whoosh!
Mo Yu who'd always been watching the show from the side had descended to Duan Lingtian's side at this moment. "Senior Brother, leave them to me."
"Okay."
Duan Lingtian didn't refuse Mo Yu's volunteer. "Go on."
He knew clearly in his heart that Mo Yu was unable to restrain himself since long ago.
Earlier, when he made a move against all the Demonic Lotusblade Sect higher-ups and disciples at the Void Prying Stage or above, he'd once used a voice transmission to stop Mo Yu from making a move, because he didn't allow any mishaps to befall Mo Yu.
Mo Yu was the future hope of the Seven Star Sword Sect!
Now, the almost 100 Demonic Lotusblade Sect disciples before him were all martial artists that hadn't even stepped into the Void Prying Stage, and they were unable to pose the slightest threat to Mo Yu.
It was time for Mo Yu to vent his anger.
Mo Yu's gaze lit up when he obtained Duan Lingtian's agreement, and a spirit sword appeared in his hand as he flashed out, seeming to have transformed into a shooting star that descended towards the few tens of Demonic Lotusblade Sect disciples.
Seven Star Sword Technique!
Mo Yu attacked and directly executed the Seven Star Sword Sect's ultimate sword skill, and seven material sword lights whistled out to kill seven Demonic Lotusblade Sect disciples in the blink of an eye.
As the closed door disciple of the former Seven Star Sword Sect's Leader, Linghu Jin Hong, and coupled with Duan Lingtian having no intention to take the position of Sect Leader of the Seven Star Sword Sect, Mo Yu had long since been taken by Linghu Jin Hong to be fostered as the next Sect Leader of the Seven Star Sword Sect.
When Linghu Jin Hong passed down the Minor Seven Star Sword Technique to Mo Yu that day, he'd already passed the Seven Star Sword Technique to Mo Yu.
Mo Yu didn't disappoint Linghu Jin Hong's high hopes, and during these past few years, under the guidance of Qin Xiang, he'd smoothly cultivated the Seven Star Sword Technique to the Mastery Stage.
Swish! Swish! Swish! Swish! Swish!
…
Along with Mo Yu attacking, the seven sword lights that flashed out in groups seemed to have transformed into the scythe of the god of death, and every single sword light was capable of reaping the life of a Demonic Lotusblade Sect disciple.
The group of Demonic Lotusblade Sect disciples either fought desperately with Mo Yu or fled for their lives.
But in the end, they were unable to escape the same ending.
After a short moment, the almost 100 Demonic Lotusblade Sect disciples that were originally still alive had all fallen, and blood flowed into rivers.
Thump!
Under the gazes of everyone present, Mo Yu knelt on the ground that was dyed red with blood, and two streams of clear tears flowed freely from his face as he looked up at the sky in the west and said in a loud voice, "Master, did you see that? I've taken revenge for you, for all the Peak Masters and Elders, for all my Senior Brothers and Junior Sisters … All of you can rest in peace in the netherworld. "
After he finished speaking, Mo Yu kowtowed three times before standing up once more.
"The remaining people, all of you swear with your blood … If all of you joined the Demonic Lotusblade Sect, Snow Moon Sect, or Origin Convergence Sect five years ago, then all of you will be blasted to death by the Nine-Nine Heavenly Tribulation!"
Duan Lingtian's fierce gaze descended onto the remaining group of Demonic Lotusblade Sect disciples as he spoke with a low voice.
Instantly, the expressions of many people in the group of Demonic Lotusblade Sect disciples went grim.
These people were all disciples that had joined the Demonic Lotusblade Sect and the other two sects five years ago. They didn't take the initiative to leave earlier, whereas the surrounding Demonic Lotusblade Sect disciples didn't know their background, so they'd escaped the calamity from before.
They originally thought that they would be able to survive, yet never had they imagined that Duan Lingtian would be so vigilant and even make them swear with the Nine-Nine Heavenly Tribulation.
Of course, there were also some people that held hope in their hearts and felt that swearing an oath wasn't a big deal.
Even though the Nine-Nine Heavenly Tribulation was the publicly acknowledged Oath Tribulation in Cloud Continent, but to most people, the Nine-Nine Heavenly Tribulation was only an illusory legend.
They didn't think that the Oath Tribulation was really capable of doing anything to them.
Whereas these people quickly realized how childish their thoughts were.
Along with numerous drops of fresh blood shooting into the sky, numerous oaths were spoken by the remaining Demonic Lotusblade Sect disciples, and waves of continuous thunderclaps resounded out in the horizon.
The frequency of the thunderclaps was so swift that it was like setting off firecrackers.
Along with all the Demonic Lotusblade Sect disciples finishing speaking, balls of dark clouds converged over from the horizon, and they arrived in the sky above the gorge in a short moment before ceaselessly pressing down together.
Violet colored lightning ceaselessly roiled above the balls of dark clouds, and it seemed as if it was brewing something.
"The descent of the tribulation lightning … Many people are going to suffer misfortune."
High above in the sky, Elder Kong couldn't help but shake his head and laugh when he saw this scene. "Brother Duan is really smart, he knows to use this method to determine if there are any remaining Demonic Lotusblade Sect disciples that have escaped the net. Now, he doesn't even have to personally make a move against those that have escaped the net. "
"The son-in-law of I, Feng Wu Dao, is naturally not an ordinary person."
Feng Wu Dao spoke indifferently.
His words seemed as if Duan Lingtian had already gotten married to Feng Tianwu and had already officially become his son-in-law.
Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang!
…
Numerous bolts of tribulation lightning that were thick as buckets tore through the sky and descended towards the group of Demonic Lotusblade Sect disciples that had escaped the net, blasting them into ash and wiping away all the traces they left behind in this world.
At the moment of death, these Demonic Lotusblade Sect disciples that were blasted to death only had a single thought left.
The Tribulation of Oaths of legend is real!
If anyone dared hold any hope before the Tribulation of Oaths, then they would die without a doubt.
When they saw over 10 of their fellow disciples being blasted into ash in the blink of an eye, the expressions of the remaining group of Demonic Lotusblade Sect disciples went pale, and some with comparatively weaker mental fortitude even went limp on the ground and shivered.
The scene from before was sufficient to become a nightmare for their entire lifetime.
Over 10 bolts of tribulation lightning that were thick as buckets descended before them, and it blasted those people that were still alive by their side earlier into ash.
"The legend is true … Those that go against the Tribulation of Oaths will indeed be blasted to death by the Nine-Nine Heavenly Tribulation!"
"Looks like we can't hold any hope before the Tribulation of Oaths."
…
The remaining few hundred Demonic Lotusblade Sect disciples whispered in discussion, and their words were filled with fear towards the Tribulation of Oaths.
"All of you … fuck off!"
Duan Lingtian's gaze swept the remaining Demonic Lotusblade Sect disciples with a calm gaze as he spoke indifferently.
Even though he'd killed many people earlier.
But he'd killed people that deserved to be killed!
Killing these few hundred Demonic Lotusblade Sect disciples was as easy as flipping his hand to Duan Lingtian.
But Duan Lingtian didn't do this.
These Demonic Lotusblade Sect disciples were Azure Forest Tri-Sect disciples that didn't participate in the battle that annihilated the Seven Star Sword Sect five years ago, and their crimes didn't deserve death.
When Duan Lingtian had just finished speaking and the group of Demonic Lotusblade Sect disciples hadn't recovered from their shock.
