"Godslayer's sword. I've obtained the first protector sword, Godslayer's sword. Hahahaha …" Gongsun Zhi could not help but laugh aloud as he grasped Godslayer's sword and sensed the information from it.
It was also at this moment that the white light from the nine mountains vanished. All the Hallowed Saint Masters gathered there were revealed as well.
The nine mountains that hovered in the sky were submerged in space again, vanishing without a trace.
"Hmm? What's going on? Where are the nine mountains …"
"The mountains have vanished. Has the selection of the protector swords come to an end?"
"There were clearly nine protector swords, so why did it end when six were missing? Have none of us been chosen by the protector swords?"
.....
Immediately, a noisy discussion rang out in the surroundings. Many of the Hallowed Saint Masters who had not been chosen by the protector swords expressed their reluctance. Their eyes were gloomy as they felt dejected.
At this moment, five bright streaks of light shone over. They were as dazzling as the sun.
All the Hallowed Saint Masters looked over, and they saw a scene that made all of them jealous with a single glance.
Five protector swords hovered in the air, standing between Donglin and Yan Xue.
A layer of pure light descended from above Bai Yu, Han Xin, Xuan Ming, and Gongsun Zhi, enveloping the five of them.
Without even thinking about it, everyone knew that the five of them had obtained five protector swords.
"Isn't that Bai Yu from the Soaring Clouds Peak? Bai Yu has actually obtained the recognition of a protector sword. Heavens, am I seeing things …"
"Bai Yu only has a two-colored soulcore, yet she can obtain a protector sword. T- this isn't fair …"
"Han Xin has actually obtained the recognition of a protector sword as well. The only two people left on the Soaring Clouds Peak have both obtained protector swords. This is unbelievable …"
"The Soaring Clouds Peak has truly soared up. From today onwards, no one will be bold enough to speak ill of the master and disciple of the Soaring Clouds Peak …"
"Donglin Yan Xue has actually obtained a protector sword as well? She helped Jianchen of the Martial Soul lineage escape in the past. She's a sinner of our Radiant Saint Hall. How can a protector sword choose her … "
.....
Cries of surprise rang out in the surroundings. Many people were unable to accept the fact that Han Xin, Bai Yu, and Donglin Yan Xue had obtained a protector sword.
In particular, the Hallowed Saint Masters who had mocked Bai Yu in the past or tried to sow discord between them paled when they saw Bai Yu obtain a protector sword.
The Sacred Hall's elder, Mu Shui, stared at Bai Yu without blinking. Her heart was extremely uneasy.
Bai Yu was originally her disciple, but because of her relationship with Jianchen, she was ruthlessly expelled from the sect. However, she never expected that Bai Yu would have the opportunity to obtain a Guardian Saint Sword.
Looking at the ancient longsword floating above Bai Yu's head, Mu Shui suddenly felt a burst of bitterness in her heart. At that moment, she suddenly thought of just how much glory she would receive if Bai Yu was still her disciple. Just how much would her status in the Radiant Saint Hall rise through Bai Yu?
"Sigh!" Mu Shui sighed gently inside. She knew that her relationship with Bai Yu was probably irreparable. It would never return to how it was in the past.
This was because Bai Yu had already become an important figure in the Radiant Saint Hall. With her protector sword, her status and right to speak had completely surpassed her as an elder.
"Donglin Yan Xue, you traitor. You actually have the face to come here?" Suddenly, a voice rang out. Gongsun Zhi also discovered that Donglin Yan Xue had actually obtained the recognition of a protector sword. Cold killing intent immediately filled his eyes.
Gongsun Zhi truly hated Donglin Yan Xue to the core. If she had not helped Jianchen escape in the past, it was extremely likely for the Grand Exalt's cultivation method to end up in his hands.
That was a Grand Exalt's cultivation method. Just how many people in the entire Saints' World could withstand that? Once he obtained the cultivation method, his future accomplishments would be limitless.
In the end, it was because of Donglin Yan Xue that he missed out on the cultivation method. Gongsun Zhi's fury was unimaginable.
"Gongsun Zhi, you may be the Divine King of Light, and your cultivation is greater than mine, but we both wield protector swords. Our statuses are on par. You no longer have the right to judge whether I'm a traitor or not," Donglin Yan Xue replied coldly. Now that she wielded a protector sword, she was filled with confidence.
"How dare you!" Gongsun Zhi bellowed out. He immediately ordered all the Hallowed Saint Masters gathered in the surroundings to move away before swinging his protector sword towards Donglin Yan Xue.
However, when he swung his protector sword halfway, it came to a halt in the air. No matter how hard Gongsun Zhi tried, he was unable to make the protector sword slash down.
It was as if the protector sword was no longer under Gongsun Zhi's control.
"Gongsun Zhi, you're the last one to obtain a protector sword. You probably haven't digested the information from the protector sword yet. The nine retainers of the master of the Tower of Radiance once went through life and death together. They've already become sworn brothers, so it's impossible for them to fight against each other. As the wielder of a protector sword, if we attack them with our protector swords, we'll suffer great resistance from the protector sword, "Donglin Yan Xue said coldly.
Gongsun Zhi's face sank when he heard that. At this moment, he had just finished digesting the information from the protector sword. Just as Donglin Yan Xue had said, the protector swords were forbidden from fighting against each other.
At this moment, the leader of the Radiant Saint Hall, Yu Chen, appeared. He glanced at the sky where the sacred mountain had vanished before looking at the people who wielded the protector swords deeply. He said, "It looks like the selection of the protector swords this time has ended. Everyone, return." With that, the leader of the Radiant Saint Hall vanished.
"Father, I obtained a protector sword!" Xuan Ming showed off his protector sword in front of Xuan Zhan excitedly.
"Xuan Zhan, your son is impressive. He wields a protector sword. From today onwards, your son is a protector of our Radiant Saint Hall." The seven other leaders of the Radiant Saint Hall all gathered over as well. They all stared at the protector sword enviously.
"Good! Good! Good! "Xuan Zhan smiled from ear to ear as he felt extremely proud.
To another side, Donglin Qiushui arrived before Donglin Yan Xue. She was excited as well.
As for Han Xin, he held the protector sword as he became rather dazed. The surprise was just too great. Even now, he still found it to be unreal.
The selection of the protector swords officially came to an end. Six of the nine protector swords had chosen a master, while the remaining three vanished with the sacred mountain.
The Artifact Spirit of the Tower of Radiance no longer spoke.
Very soon, all the Hallowed Saint Masters gathered in the Tower of Radiance left. Only a portion of the late Divine King Hallowed Saint Masters chose to remain. They planned to break through to the Primordial realm in the Tower of Radiance and condense soultrees before leaving.
Gongsun Zhi did not continue to hide in the Tower of Radiance. His confidence swelled after obtaining the first protector sword, Godslayer's sword. He no longer feared the mysterious expert who specifically targeted the late Divine King Hallowed Saint Masters.
Just when Xuan Zhan, Xuan Ming, Bai Yu, Donglin Yan Xue, Han Xin, and Gongsun Zhi left the Tower of Radiance with their protector swords, the Celestial Sword Saint slowly opened his eyes on the Sword God Mountains. He glanced in the direction of the Radiant Saint Hall indifferently and murmured, "Spiritual swords condensed from the Ancient Sword clan. I never thought that there would be traces of the Ancient Sword clan in the Tower of Radiance of the Radiant Saint Hall. This clan has already gone extinct …"
At the same time, an extremely unkempt beggar-like old man sat leisurely on a rattan chair in the imperial capital of the Violet Wind Empire in the southern region of the Desolate Plane. He guarded the teleportation formation that could take people to other planes.
At this moment, the unkempt old man stiffened slightly. He suddenly sat up straight, and the light in his eyes flickered. He stared straight at the central region of the Desolate Plane, where the Radiant Saint Hall resided.
