The wind blew and the water turned cold. Once a warrior left, he would never return.
At this moment, the auras of the two elders and disciples of the True Sword Sect were indomitable and resolute. It was the cold sharpness of an unsheathed sword. It was a solemn and stirring feeling of not turning back.
Even though they knew that death was certain, they still did not turn back, did not retreat, and showed no fear.
"Elder Yang Zhen, disciples, do you regret this?" Elder Yun Feng's voice seemed to be sonorous as he took powerful steps forward, like the vibration of a sword.
Yang Zhen did not answer. In fact, he had been enslaved by Chu Mu. He had no choice but to advance or retreat with the True Sword Sect.
"I don't regret it."
"I don't regret it either."
"Even if I die later, I will drag one of them down with me."
"My sword will drink the blood of the enemy."
The disciples all answered with resolute words.
One sentence, one question, immediately gathered everyone's auras.
"Perhaps we will die this time, but I believe that as long as the sect master is here, our True Sword Sect will definitely develop." As Elder Yun Feng spoke, his spirits soared. "Given the strength of our sect master, he will definitely wipe out the entire Profound Water Palace in the future to avenge us."
"That's right. One day, the sect master will wield his divine sword and wipe out the entire Profound Water Palace."
The second sentence immediately caused the auras of everyone to rise. They gathered into one and soared into the sky.
"What a strong aura."
"Even in the face of such a strong enemy, they still have such fighting spirit. Such a strong aura. These people of the True Sword Sect are really surprising."
"Knowing that they are going to die, they have the determination to fight for survival. If these people of the True Sword Sect can pass the five trials of life and death, their essence, energy, and spirit will definitely be tempered. In the future, they will advance bravely and have extraordinary achievements."
"Are you joking? So what if they have the determination to fight for survival in the face of death? In front of absolute strength, everything is in vain."
They were close.
"Let's do it. Don't kill them so quickly. It's best to deliberately leave some of them behind and let them go to the second stage for the other brothers to play with." A Sixth Sky of Nirvana Realm cultivator said with a mocking tone. His voice was not hidden at all.
"Senior Brother's words make sense. It's best to give them a chance to make it to the fifth stage and then end their hopes. Just thinking about the feeling of having hope turn into despair is exciting."
They spoke without restraint, not putting the True Sword Sect's people in their eyes at all. When the True Sword Sect's people heard this, their expressions didn't change, and their hearts didn't waver.
Under this connected aura, they got rid of all distracting thoughts and could only move forward. Even if they died, they had to raise the swords in their hands.
The clanging of Sword Light rang out in unison. The members of the True Sword Sect drew their swords. With their swords in hand, they gathered their rising auras and were dyed with a layer of sharpness.
Yang Zhen also had a sword in his hand.
He wasn't a sword cultivator, but he had also practiced sword techniques. After he was enslaved by Chu Mu and became an elder of the True Sword Sect, he spent more time on sword techniques. The sword techniques he practiced were naturally the ones created by Chu Mu.
"Kill!" Elder Yun Feng and the others shouted in unison. They all drew their swords.
The Long River Sword Technique, the Sword Light was like the water of a long river, continuous and unending. The Long River Sword Qi surged violently.
The Iron Slash Sword Technique, simple and real. The Sword Qi was sharp and could cut through metal and stone. There was nothing it couldn't cut through, and it could destroy everything.
The Zhen Xuan Sword Technique, close to returning to the origin. It looked simple, but it was actually mysterious and unpredictable.
Three of the four sword techniques created by Chu Mu were displayed one by one by the two elders and the disciples.
Everyone's eyes suddenly lit up. Among these people, there was no lack of people with outstanding eyesight. With just a glance, they could tell that the three sword techniques were very profound. It was obvious that they came from the hands of a sword expert and were rare.
Immediately, many people felt greed in their hearts.
The eyes of the one-star Saint from the Mysterious Water Palace lit up. He had seen the sword techniques of the True Sword Sect with his own eyes before, and was shocked. He wanted to seize these sword techniques, which was why he was targeting the True Sword Sect.
"Attack!" the one-star Saint from the Mysterious Water Palace shouted. Immediately, the disciples of the Mysterious Water Palace attacked.
As the name suggested, the Mysterious Water Palace mainly practiced water techniques and some sword techniques. However, their sword techniques were ordinary, but they had good attainments in water techniques.
As soon as the disciples of the Mysterious Water Palace attacked, there was a strong fluctuation of water vapor. The rules of water were drawn over. The vapor condensed, water birds circled, water spears spun, and water dragons roared.
The power was shocking. They all blasted toward the disciples of the True Sword Sect, colliding with the sword techniques and Sword Qi.
The water techniques were shattered, and the Sword Qi scattered. The disciples of the True Sword Sect quickly closed in on the disciples of the Mysterious Water Palace.
"Remember, don't kill them. Just injure them. We still have other brothers to play with."
Sadly, the disciples of the True Sword Sect were being toyed with.
"Kill!" Yun Feng shouted again, his murderous intent clear.
Under the cover of the water curtain, the attacks of the sword techniques were blocked. The water techniques were used, bombarding from all directions.
Although the disciples of the True Sword Sect had powerful sword techniques, they were not as many as the disciples of the Mysterious Water Palace. Faced with dozens of water techniques, they were immediately sent flying.
Yang Zhen held his sword, but he did not attack. He had been locked on by the opponent's aura. That aura made him feel very dangerous.
They were both one-star Saints, but Yang Zhen's strength was at the bottom. He was not a match for the one-star Saints from the Mysterious Water Palace. If he could comprehend the essence of sword techniques and master sword energy, he would be able to defeat his opponent.
Being locked down, Yang Zhen's expression kept changing. Eventually, he decisively struck out with his sword. Sword light shot out, but it lacked momentum. After all, he wasn't a true sword cultivator. He didn't have the determination and willpower that sword cultivators had to cut through all obstacles in their path.
The disciples of the True Sword Sect were sent flying one by one. They vomited blood, but they still held their swords tightly. Their faces were pale, and blood was dripping from the corner of their mouths. Their eyes were cold.
"Your eyes are not bad. I like it. I hope you can keep it up." A Sixth Sky Nirvana disciple from the Mysterious Water Palace sneered.
Yang Zhen was injured by the opponent's One Star Saint. Elder Yun Feng was injured again by two Sixth Sky of Nirvana Realm disciples from the Mysterious Water Palace. Ten core disciples, ten elite disciples, and ten inner disciples were all injured as well.
The ten inner disciples were only at the Origin Realm. They could not move under the pressure of the opponent's aura.
Injured, injured, injured. They had not recovered from their original injuries. Now that they were injured again, their strength was greatly reduced.
"Only at this level? I'm so disappointed."
"Yeah, your aura is not bad. Unfortunately, your strength is too weak."
The regretful voices were filled with schadenfreude.
The disciples of the True Sword Sect struggled to get up. They held their swords tightly, not fearing death.
"Do you want to pass the first stage? If you do, you can crawl through here." A Mysterious Water Palace disciple spread his legs and pointed at his crotch, laughing loudly.
"Me too."
"Me too."
"Come on, crawl through and you can live. You might even have a chance to return to the sect alive."
Humiliation, a great humiliation, made the faces of the True Sword Sect disciples change drastically. They were furious, and their expressions turned even colder.
"If you want to kill us, then kill us. If you don't, then let us go. This is too much." Some of the spectators frowned and shook their heads.
Some of them clapped their hands and laughed loudly. They were just watching the show.
"You have two choices. Crawl through my crotch or die here. Your corpses will be sent to the True Sword Sect. Then, the True Sword Sect will be annihilated." A Mysterious Water Palace disciple clamored.
No matter which one they chose, they could not accept it.
"Elder, kill your way through. Even if we die, we will have no regrets."
"I will sacrifice my blood for the True Sword Sect."
"Kill!"
Every True Sword Sect disciple roared.
"Then kill!" Elder Yun Feng said.
"Wait." Yang Zhen suddenly spoke up. The True Sword Sect disciples glared at him. He quickly explained, "I feel that the sect master is coming."
"The sect master is coming."
"Is the sect master really coming?"
Everyone was stunned at first, but then they all cried out.
If one were to ask who they respected the most, it would undoubtedly be the current True Sword Sect's sect master.
His shocking talent, powerful strength, tough methods, profound sword techniques, and so on were all things that they looked up to and worshipped.
The sect master was coming. Just these words injected a surge of energy into everyone's hearts, reinvigorating them. Their auras soared, and they were clearly different from before.
"Their auras have changed."
"Did you hear that? That person said that the sect master is coming. Could it be that their sect master is a peerless expert?"
The people of the Profound Water Palace also heard Yang Zhen's words and felt the change in the True Sword Sect disciples' auras. The joy and excitement on their faces came from the bottom of their hearts.
The True Sword Sect had only sent two elders and thirty disciples to participate in the Sect Gathering this time. No one was very clear about their strength. Thus, the strength of the True Sword Sect's sect master was unknown.
Could it be that he really was a super expert?
If the True Sword Sect's sect master was really a super expert, the Profound Water Palace would most likely not be able to gain any benefits this time.
The Profound Water Palace disciples immediately became doubtful. They all looked at the one-star Martial Saints, waiting for their decision.
The one-star Martial Saint from the Profound Water Palace pondered for a moment before making a clear analysis. "There is no need to fear. The signs are enough to show that the True Sword Sect is not a super expert. At most, he is an ordinary Martial Saint. There is nothing to fear," the one-star Martial Saint from the Profound Water Palace said after pondering for a moment.
The moment he said that, the Profound Water Palace disciples immediately let go of their worries.
"Since that is the case, why don't we wait here for that so-called sect master to arrive? At that time, we can suppress him in one fell swoop and let him and his disciples crawl under our legs. Wouldn't that be even more perfect?" a core disciple said with a smile.
"Senior Brother, you're right."
"Senior Brother is right."
The other disciples of the Mysterious Water Palace chimed in one after another. The One Star Saint expert merely smiled and nodded.
