After having battled intensely for a long time, Shen Lingzi believed that he already had a sufficient understanding of Yan Zhaoge's methods.
He knew that Yan Zhaoge was proficient in the Immortal Trapping Sword, possibly even the Immortal Ending Sword.
He discovered that Yan Zhaoge seemed to have cultivated in the Cyclic Heavenly Scripture and Yin Yang Heavenly Scripture of the Jade Clear direct lineage, even having some hints of the Life Creation Heavenly Scripture within.
He sensed that while Yan Zhaoge was unable to exert its full power when wielding a supreme treasure like the Extreme Yang Seal, it was still very much like he had truly obtained the direct lineage of the Exalted Solar Luminary.
He also knew that there was definitely something wrong with Yan Zhaoge's Myriad Dragon Palace. Otherwise, it would not have been possible for a high-grade Sacred Artifact like the Cloud Circulating Heavenly Light Sword to be suppressed so easily.
Even though the Cloud Circulating Heavenly Light Sword had been knocked out of his hand and virtually ownerless at that time.
Therefore, other than guarding against the dark green bamboo cane and the Extreme Yang Seal, he was also guarding against the Myriad Dragon Palace.
Shen Lingzi had even remained vigilant in case Yan Zhaoge was able to wield that legendary Immortal Artifact left behind by the Dim Radiant Emperor.
While it felt completely impossible, Yan Zhaoge had already done too many impossible things as he had no choice but to be careful.
Still, he had not thought that all of this had been Yan Zhaoge's preparations for this moment.
Having fought all the way from the South Sea to the West Sea, all the techniques that should have been used had already been used as they even had the feeling of getting used to it.
As the swords clashed, everyone knew what techniques the other party would use in response.
While Shen Lingzi had been beaten badly by Yan Zhaoge along the way, he still had the confidence of successfully joining up with Daoist Shi and the others.
However, just as he had arrived in the Spirit Inheritance Region and seen Guan Lide, Daoist Shi, King Xuancheng and the others, just having felt hope of turning the tables …
Yan Zhaoge suddenly unleashed a killing blow!
This blow directly consigned Shen Lingzi to eternal damnation!
He had first been struck by the profundities of the Peerless Heavenly Scripture, breaking through his protective sword-light and injuring his chest.
He had then followed up with a Grand Shattering Brightness Fist at the exact same spot, directly punching a large hole through Shen Lingzi's chest from front to back!
Shen Lingzi's flesh, blood, bones and internal organs had all been shattered into smithereens!
While Shen Lingzi of the eighth level of the Martial Saint realm did not cultivate in martial arts like the Life Creation Heavenly Scripture or the Longevity Martial Scripture, his life force was still extremely powerful.
Despite having been so injured, he had not immediately perished.
But the shadow of death had already shrouded his heart.
Looking at Broad Creed Mountain in the distance, when he had come here previously, while he had been defeated and had not been able to breach Broad Creed Mountain's headquarters, he had never thought that this would be the place where his bones would be buried.
Shen Lingzi gazed rather laboriously at Yan Zhaoge, finding it hard to believe that he would actually die at the hands of a fifth level Martial Saint one day.
However, after punching out, Yan Zhaoge immediately retracted his fist, not even looking at the results of his punch as he directly shot towards Broad Creed Mountain!
Shen Lingzi widened his eyes.
Those of the Grand Xuan Dynasty all watched in shock as their strongest expert, Shen Lingzi, was actually heavily injured by a junior of the fifth level of the Martial Saint realm.
In front of everyone, under the watchful eyes of the crowd, he suffered a crushing defeat and was about to lose his life!
While they had already witnessed Yan Di's strength, everyone was still inexplicably shocked at this moment.
And at this moment, Yan Zhaoge directly abandoned the heavily injured Shen Lingzi, killing over to King Xuancheng like a tempestuous storm!
Because the scene before him was too unexpected, King Xuancheng was also momentarily stunned.
However, he immediately regained his wits. Just as he was about to head over to assist Shen Lingzi, he had not thought that Yan Zhaoge would actually directly change his target over here.
Giving Shen Lingzi a fatal blow here was not just to numb him earlier, but also to make use of Shen Lingzi's defeat to shock the others of the Grand Xuan Dynasty.
For veteran experts like Daoist Shi and King Xuancheng who had experienced countless battles, no matter how shocking something was, they would still be able to recover in an instant.
However, just this one instant was already sufficient for Yan Zhaoge!
The Extreme Yang Seal slammed down towards King Xuancheng with the momentum of the sky collapsing.
While King Xuancheng's mid-grade Sacred Artifact spear had been broken by Yan Di, its influence was limited.
He decisively substituted a spear with his fist, executing his supreme martial arts in blocking the mighty blow of the Extreme Yang Seal.
At the same time, however, Yan Zhaoge raised his bamboo cane high, drawing an arc through the air.
Then, he swung it in a full circle, striking towards King Xuancheng!
Seeing the bamboo cane, King Xuancheng seemed to think of something. However, the situation did not permit him to hesitate as he immediately stimulated the Five Fires Seven Fowl Armour on his body to defend.
Yet, as the bamboo cane descended, the all-encompassing flames were instantly extinguished.
The silhouettes of the seven fowls collapsed one after another.
The radiance of the high-grade Sacred Artifact, the Five Fires Seven Fowl Armour, instantly dimmed.
Having gained the upper hand, Yan Zhaoge did not spare him as the dark green bamboo cane in his hand came smashing downwards in rapid succession.
At the same time, he executed a Cyclic Heavenly Seal with his left hand, bolstering the Extreme Yang Seal with his Extreme Yang Seal, causing its momentum to grow even more violent.
A short moment later, King Xuancheng understood why Shen Lingzi had been beaten to the point of having bumps all over his head earlier.
As he counterattacked, Yan Zhaoge used the Extreme Yang Seal to negate a portion of his power before lightly tapping out with his Yin Yang Finger.
King Xuancheng's attack instantly changed direction, instead helping Yan Zhaoge block Daoist Shi's attack.
Struck by the dark green bamboo cane, the flames of the Five Fires Seven Fowl Armour were extinguished, its radiance dissipating as it virtually seemed about to disintegrate on its own.
Yan Zhaoge struck out with the Extreme Yang Seal once more, causing King Xuancheng to nearly plummet from mid-air.
Seeing this scene, the Star Plucking Practitioner Guan Lide too felt greatly shocked, "He … is that Yan Zhaoge?!"
King Xuancheng aside, while Shen Lingzi was an eighth level Martial Saint, he had the ability to challenge Guan Lide of the ninth level of the Martial Saint realm.
Now, however, he had virtually died at Yan Zhaoge's hands. How could Guan Lide not be shocked?
The dark green bamboo cane in Yan Zhaoge's hand caused Guan Lide's eyelids to twitch, "What exactly is that thing? An Immortal Artifact left behind by the Dim Radiant Emperor? It doesn't look like it! "
On Broad Creed Mountain, everyone smiled before roaring towards the heavens in unison.
Led by Yan Di, the Taiyi Imperial Breaking Formation directly rose into the air, switching from defence to offence!
Bolstered by the grand formation, wherever Yan Di's sabre passed, sabre-qi that could topple mountains and overturn seas hacked unceasingly towards Guan Lide.
Meanwhile, Yan Zhaoge gave up on King Xuancheng now, gazing at Daoist Shi.
Having just rescued the heavily injured Shen Lingzi, Daoist Shi instantly felt a chill run down his spine as Yan Zhaoge's gaze swept past him.
Yan Zhaoge smiled, "You must be Daoist Shi? Your attainments in formations are truly superb. "
With that, the Immortal Trapping Sword moved, red light appearing all around!
This sword not only hacked through time, it hacked through space as well!
The Heaven Earth Divination Formation was a supreme formation that could shift space.
However, it was precisely because of this that the Immortal Trapping Sword was able to deal with it even more easily.
If one was not proficient in formations, even if one was proficient in the Immortal Trapping Sword, it would still not be an easy thing to break through the Taiyi Imperial Breaking Formation and the Heaven Earth Divination Formation.
However, this problem did not exist for Yan Zhaoge!
His true body was here now, and his attainments in formations could only be higher than Daoist Shi's!
Consecutively seizing the position of Grand Unity, Yan Zhaoge's Immortal Trapping Sword hacked through space as the Heaven Earth Divination Formation before him instantly showed signs of collapsing.
Daoist Shi was greatly shocked, "Immortal Trapping Sword?! You … "
Yan Zhaoge laughed loudly as he had already arrived.
With a single sword, he first ended the heavily injured and dying Shen Lingzi who could only await his death!
Shen Lingzi's eyes seemed on the verge of imploding as his head was separated from his body, flying straight into the horizon! (To be continued.)
