In the past, the magical beasts had invaded the Tian Yuan Continent en masse because of the Winged Tiger, but they were stopped by the experts of the Tian Yuan Continent. The two sides reached an agreement, and the magical beasts all settled down on the small island temporarily. Afterwards, Yun Tian left the Radiant Saint Master Union and traveled overseas with the Winged Tiger. He wanted to find the magical beasts and tell them that the Winged Tiger was on Jianchen so that they could harm Jianchen. However, after flying for a few days, Yun Tian fainted from exhaustion. Just as he was about to die in the sea, a Beast Race powerhouse happened to pass by, picked him up from the sea, and brought him back to this small island.
After learning about the Winged Tiger from Yang Yutian, the magical beast immediately set off for the Tian Yuan Continent again. They had forgotten about Yun Tian. Since the island was extremely far away from the Tian Yuan Continent and Yun Tian was unable to determine the direction of the vast sea, he had no idea where the Tian Yuan Continent was. Coupled with his weak strength, he was unable to travel through the sea, so he was trapped on the small island.
In the beginning, Yun Tian could still deal with it normally, but as time went on, he became rather unbearable. In the end, he became insane.
.....
The next morning, Jianchen led the vice-sect master, the five elders, and the four protectors to the hiding spot of the Underworld sect. Nubis obviously went with Jianchen.
The vice-sect master, Jiang Wang, had personally investigated the hiding spot of the Underworld sect, so he had left behind some coordinates there. Jianchen's group directly arrived at the hiding spot of the Underworld sect through a Space Gate constructed by Jiang Wang.
This was a yellow world. As far as the eye could see, it was a vast expanse of yellow sand. There was no end in sight. The scorching sun hung high in the sky, emitting a scorching heat that baked the earth until it was boiling hot.
Jianchen, Nubis, Jiang Wang, the five elders, and the four protectors hovered a thousand meters in the air at ease. They looked down at the ground from above. The harsh weather of the desert did not affect them at all.
"Sect master, in order to avoid being discovered by the experts of the Underworld sect, I chose a Space Gate a thousand kilometers away from the Underworld sect. There's a region of loose sand a thousand kilometers up ahead. The divine hall of the Underworld sect is hidden under the sand," Jiang Wang explained to Jianchen.
Jianchen immediately looked up ahead. He nodded slightly and said, "Let's go." Afterward, Jianchen and everyone began to fly a thousand kilometers away.
The four protectors, who were the weakest in the group, were all at the Fifth Heavenly Layer of Saint Rulers. Their comprehension of space was quite high, so they flew extremely quickly. The distance of a thousand kilometers was covered in less than half an hour.
When Jian Chen arrived at the region of sand that Jiang Wang had mentioned, he immediately extended the senses of his soul. Sure enough, he discovered a huge divine hall standing silently under the soft sand below him.
Jian Chen's eyes turned cold. He had already destroyed the Yama Hall of the two major culprits who had tried to assassinate uncle Xiu's wife, so only the Underworld sect remained.
Jianchen no longer hesitated. A powerful killing intent radiated from his body as the Emperor Armament silently appeared in his hand. A dark, gray mist coiled around it as it radiated with a violent presence of destruction.
Jianchen and the five elders shivered inside. The killing intent radiating from Jianchen made them shiver. They had finally witnessed Jianchen's strength with their own eyes. They all thought that the rumors were true. This was because their understanding of Jianchen's strength was still based on the rumors on the Tian Yuan Continent. None of them knew just how much of the rumors were false.
Jianchen swung his sword and a black sword Qi as thick as an arm shot through the air like a bolt of lightning. It sank into the loose sand below in a single moment.
The sword Qi possessed the might of the Seventh Heavenly Layer of the Holy Emperor. It directly struck the divine hall a hundred meters below the sand. Although it was nowhere near enough to destroy the divine hall, it was enough to shake it.
The divine hall violently shook, rousing everyone within. The next moment, a black figure shot out of the divine hall with lightning-like speed. It charged out of the desert with a powerful presence and faced off against Jianchen's group.
It was a person completely wrapped in black robes. Their appearance was obscured, and it was impossible to tell if they were male or female. The presence they gave off had already reached the Fifth Heavenly Layer of the Holy Emperor.
"Who are you? Why are you provoking my Underworld sect?" The person in black robes asked with a deep voice. His voice was hoarse, and it was neither male nor female.
"Hahaha, Luo Qi, isn't your memory a little too bad? It's only been a thousand years, yet you've already forgotten your old friend," sneered Jiang Wang.
"Jiang Wang, it's actually you! You're from the Bloodsword sect!" The black-robed person's voice was filled with surprise. He then continued, "Isn't the Bloodsword sect a hermit that doesn't care about anything on the Tian Yuan Continent? May I ask why you've mustered so many people today?"
"Luo Qi, this is the new sect master of our Bloodsword sect. Under the sect master's orders, our Bloodsword sect has returned, and your Underworld sect will be the sacrificial offering for our return." Jiang Wang laughed aloud.
"Hmph, your Bloodsword sect doesn't have the right to wipe out my Underworld sect," sneered the black-robed person. His voice was filled with disdain.
"It's not up to you to decide whether we have the right or not." Jianchen coldly replied. He stepped through the air and arrived beside the black-robed person with a single step. The Emperor Armament stabbed toward the black-robed person's head.
The black-robed person was secretly surprised when he sensed the might of Jianchen's attack. However, he did not slow down at all. Darkness-attributed Saint Force surged out from his hand, condensing into a small, black dagger in an instant. He advanced instead of retreating, dodging Jianchen's attack with a tilt of his head. The dagger in his hand was like a cold, venomous snake, silently stabbing toward Jianchen's forehead as a black streak of light.
Jianchen sneered disdainfully. With a twist of his wrist, the sword that had stabbed through the air directly swung toward the black-robed person's head. If the speed of Jianchen's first attack could be described as nothing special, then the current attack toward the black-robed person's head was unbelievably fast. As the sword tore through the air, a pitch-black crack appeared in space.
The black-robed person was shocked. Jianchen's attack was just too fast. Even with his strength at the Fifth Heavenly Layer of the Holy Emperor, he had almost failed to react in time. It was already too late for him to dodge, so he could only change the direction of his dagger toward Jianchen's Emperor Armament.
When the two of them collided, a rumbling sound immediately erupted. A powerful energy shockwave spread out in all directions with the two of them as the epicenter of their battle. Jianchen's attack possessed the might of the Seventh Heavenly Layer of the Holy Emperor, so it was impossible for the black-robed person to block it with his strength at the Fifth Heavenly Layer of the Holy Emperor. He was immediately blown away.
"The new sect master of the Bloodsword sect is so powerful. He's actually reached the Seventh Heavenly Layer. Aside from the old sect master who's still in seclusion, no one in my Underworld sect is his opponent," the black-robed person was secretly shocked. The black-robed man was secretly shocked. He immediately stopped fighting and quickly rushed underground. As long as he returned to the Divine Palace, he would be in an invincible position.
However, as soon as he moved, a bone-chilling coldness swept over. All he saw was Jianchen appear beside him like a ghost. The Emperor Armament pulsed with black light as it stabbed toward him with lightning-like speed. The tip of the sword was less than three inches away from his forehead. At such a close distance, the black-robed person could even feel the pain coming from his soul.
He felt a piercing pain, as if his soul was about to be ripped apart.
The black-robed person was shocked. Other than Houston a thousand years ago, this was the first time he had felt the threat of death in so many years.
In that critical moment, the black-robed person spat out a mouthful of dense, black mist. He yelled out, "Darkness Saint Technique, Afterimage Clone!"
With that, Jianchen's Emperor Armament stabbed into the black-robed person's forehead with lightning-like speed. However, Jianchen did not rejoice. Instead, he frowned. His attack had failed.
"Bang!"
As soon as Jianchen thought of that, the black-robed person loudly exploded. He turned into a dense, black mist that rapidly expanded, enveloping Jianchen.
The black mist was clearly no ordinary mist. It was condensed from darkness-attributed Saint Force. Even with Jianchen's eyesight, he was unable to see anything within the mist. He could not even see his fingers.
Suddenly, a small, black dagger silently appeared behind Jianchen. The dagger had completely fused with the black mist, so it would be difficult to notice it no matter how great one's eyesight was.
However, before the dagger could attack Jianchen from behind, Jianchen suddenly turned around and swung his Emperor Armament without any hesitation. The Chaotic Force wrapped around the Emperor Armament shattered space. The strike was extremely powerful, affecting the space in a radius of a hundred meters. The entire space violently pulsed.
"Argh!"
With a painful cry, the small dagger that had appeared behind Jianchen fell from the sky with a bloody arm before it could launch a fatal attack on Jianchen. Not only did the black-robed man who wanted to assassinate Jian Chen fail in his sneak attack, but he even lost an arm.
The black mist around Jianchen slowly dispersed and Jianchen's figure gradually appeared before the people of the Bloodsword sect. However, the black-robed person was nowhere to be found.
The vice sect master and the five elders could not help but let out a sigh of relief when they saw that Jianchen was fine. Although they knew that Jianchen was very powerful, he had faced an expert from the Underworld sect who specialized in assassination. He could have died if he had been careless.
"Sect master, are you fine? Where's Luo Qi?" Jiang Wang arrived beside Jianchen and asked in concern.
Jianchen remained calm and composed. He gently shook his head and said, "He's not a threat to me at all, but he fled pretty quickly. After I cut off his arm, he immediately fled into the desert.
He went into the divine hall. "
Jianchen spoke calmly, but Jiang Wang and the five elders were secretly shocked. An expert from the Underworld sect who had reached the Fifth Heavenly Layer of the Holy Emperor and specialized in assassination was not a threat to him at all. They were once again convinced by Jianchen's great strength.
