"Chen Zong, Sword Monarch of Will! Kill! Kill!"
"Xia Zhenghua, Aurora Sword, Kill! Kill! Kill!"
The higher-ups of the Skyscraper Association issued the Kill Order. Once the Kill Order was issued, they wouldn't stop until one of them was dead.
Many experts of the Skyscraper Association also left for the White Sword City.
Under the Kill Order, anyone who could complete the mission would be rewarded handsomely. However, Chen Zong and Xia Zhenghua didn't know that.
In the mountains outside the White Sword City, there was a branch of the Skyscraper Association.
Under Xia Zhenghua's lead, they finally entered this place after traveling in a very secretive manner.
This branch was located in the mountains and underground. It was called a branch, but after many years of expansion, it was already a small town. Perhaps it wasn't very big, but it could easily accommodate tens of thousands of people at the same time.
Of course, there couldn't be so many people in one branch. After all, the Skyscraper Association wasn't an ordinary organization, nor was it a small town. The people inside could only be members of the Skyscraper Association and their families.
"There's more than one branch of the Skyscraper Association. As for how many branches there are and where they are located, you'll only know when you become a real member of the Skyscraper Association and have a certain status," Xia Zhenghua said with a smile as he led Chen Zong through the wide and flat gray streets of the town.
A blazing sun was floating in the sky, emitting a dazzling white light that enveloped the whole town.
This was the underground of the mountain, where there was no daylight. This white sun was man-made. It was some kind of treasure. With this kind of treasure, this underground town had the distinction of day and night, just like on the surface.
Chen Zong raised his head and gazed at the dazzling white sun. He was quite curious and amazed.
Xia Zhenghua explained the situation of this branch to Chen Zong as he led the way. After all, Chen Zong had agreed to join the Skyscraper Association, so he should know some things. However, because Chen Zong hadn't really joined the Skyscraper Association yet, he couldn't know some of the more secretive things.
They walked to the center of the town and stepped into a small fortress-like house.
"The leader of the White Sword Branch is an elder of the association," Xia Zhenghua said.
The Extreme Heaven Association didn't have many elders, but every one of them was a Profound Sky Realm expert.
"The elder's name is Fang Heng, and his title is Gu Shanjian. He has a mild temper and is easy to talk to. You don't have to be nervous when you meet him later." Xia Zhenghua smiled.
Immediately, Xia Zhenghua stood in the main hall of the small castle and said, "Elder Fang, Xia Zhenghua wishes to see you about something important."
"Little brat Xia, what's the matter? Speak." An old man walked out from behind the wall of the hall.
Hearing the deep voice, Chen Zong thought it was a tall and powerful old man. But when he saw the old man, Chen Zong was stunned. It was a thin old man, which didn't match the voice.
Although his figure was small, Chen Zong's pupils shrank the moment he saw him. He could only feel an indescribably heavy impact, as if an ancient mountain was crashing down on him.
As if it was an illusion, the heavy pressure disappeared in an instant. The thin old man in a short black robe walked out with his hands behind his back.
His eyes first fell on Xia Zhenghua's face, then on Chen Zong's face. His pupils shrank to the size of needles in an instant. They were incomparably sharp, as if they were going to pierce through Chen Zong.
Chen Zong's expression changed slightly. In an instant, he felt an astonishing sharpness pressing down on him, as if a mountain was pressing down on him.
"Elder Fang, he's Chen Zong. He wants to join the Extreme Heaven Association," Xia Zhenghua said quickly.
Immediately, Chen Zong felt the terrible pressure disappear again. He couldn't help but let out a sigh of relief.
"Not long ago, he saved Qin Hao from the Broken Sword Peak. Yesterday, in White Sword City, he killed the Skyscraper Association's Void Killer," Xia Zhenghua said quickly.
"Oh." Hearing this, Elder Fang's expression changed. He looked at Chen Zong again, sizing him up as if he wanted to see through Chen Zong.
Chen Zong was calm and collected.
"Where are you from?" Elder Fang asked.
"The Tai Yuan Heaven Sect," Chen Zong answered honestly.
"Elder Fang, Chen Zong is the number one genius of the Tai Yuan Heaven Sect," Xia Zhenghua said from the side.
"The number one genius of the Tai Yuan Heaven Sect!" Elder Fang was shocked. The Tai Yuan Heaven Sect was one of the top fifteen factions in the Blue Waves Continent. There were many formidable martial artists and countless geniuses. To be able to become the number one genius of the Tai Yuan Heaven Sect, he was undoubtedly very talented.
However, on second thought, this person didn't look very old. If he could kill the Skyscraper Association's Void Killer, it meant that he was a King-Ranked martial artist. Moreover, he wasn't an ordinary King-Ranked martial artist.
This was a genius, a peerless genius.
Thinking of this, Elder Fang's eyes shone with intense light, like the sun.
"Hahahaha, Little Friend Chen, welcome to the Extreme Heaven Association." Elder Fang laughed, his voice vigorous and clear. "If you don't have any questions, I can help you with the association's rules and regulations now."
"Thank you, Elder Fang." Chen Zong smiled. Although Xia Zhenghua said that Elder Fang's temperament was gentle and easy to talk to, he was still a Heavenly Mystic Realm formidable martial artist. Chen Zong had to show him respect.
"Let's go. Follow me to test your strength," Elder Fang said.
After passing through the main hall, they entered the backyard, which was very spacious. It was also Elder Fang's usual martial arts training ground.
"Come on, use your full strength to attack me," Elder Fang said seriously. Elder Fang sternly said, "This will affect your evaluation and position in the Empyrean Polar Association. Therefore, don't hold back your strength except for using forbidden arts."
Hearing this, Chen Zong nodded, his expression serious.
He took a deep breath and stood twenty meters away from Elder Fang. The five fingers on his right hand wriggled slightly as he adjusted his strength.
One sword!
Chen Zong wanted to perform his most powerful attack within one sword strike. He couldn't afford to make any mistakes.
Elder Fang's skinny figure stood where he was with his hands behind his back, his expression calm. He was a Heavenly Mystic Realm formidable martial artist, so he didn't need to use his full strength to deal with the sword strike of an Extreme Human Realm warrior.
After three breaths of time, Chen Zong's right hand flashed, leaving behind a series of afterimages. His five fingers clasped the sword hilt, and he instantly clenched it tightly. His waist suddenly twisted, and a shocking force erupted, sweeping out like a storm and directly passing through his right arm.
The Void Sword Energy was fully activated, surging like thunder and flowing like the sea. In a flash, it all poured into his arm. The muscles on his arm were also trembling, rushing to the sword.
The power poured into the sword and gathered at the sword tip.
As the muscles on his arm trembled, the Heavenly Will Sword also trembled. The frequency was getting higher and higher, and the buzzing sound was so dense that it made people's scalps tingle.
The air around the edge of the sword was completely repelled, leaving a faint black mark.
Chen Zong wasn't in a hurry to use his sword. Instead, he was carefully experiencing this feeling.
This feeling was unprecedented. It was as if in an instant, because of the high intensity of concentration, he had entered a new realm. It was wonderful. All the power in his body resonated with the sword in his hand.
This sword strike would surpass the past and reach a new height. Chen Zong had this premonition.
In the blink of an eye, Chen Zong had slashed out with his sword.
The sword strike that contained all the power in his body would surpass the strongest sword strike he had ever used.
Heaven's Scar!
Even though Chen Zong had a preliminary understanding of and created a new sword move, the Heaven's Scar was still the most powerful in terms of direct damage.
As the sword was swung, the sky was directly torn apart, leaving a black mark. It flashed through the air at lightning speed towards Elder Fang.
This sword strike was extremely fast. In the Extreme Mortal Realm, it was hard to find a match. However, in the eyes of Xia Zhenghua and Elder Fang, the trajectory was very clear. And because of this, they could more directly see the black mark left in the air after the sword strike.
The black mark was the mark left behind by the sword that was too sharp. It was enough to show the terrifying power of this sword strike.
After the sword strike, there was an extremely sharp sound that pierced through gold and cracked stone. It was as if the sound of a demon was pouring into one's brain.
The sword was out and in a flash, it was in front of Elder Fang.
Elder Fang didn't move. His hands were still behind his back, but the short black robe on his body seemed to be blown up by the wind. An invisible protective force was distributed in front of him.
With an extremely sharp explosion, the Heaven's Scar carried Chen Zong's power and ferociously slashed at the protective force.
In an instant, the sword light with a touch of darkness shattered, but the protective force didn't move at all.
After swinging the sword, Chen Zong felt extremely satisfied. It was as if all the power in his body had been released, but he didn't feel weak at all.
Strong!
An extremely strong sword strike!
Chen Zong knew that his control of the Heaven's Scar had deepened. Its power had also increased.
As for why this sword strike couldn't break through Elder Fang's protective force and cause him any harm, it was completely within Chen Zong's expectations.
Elder Fang was a Heavenly Mystic Realm martial artist. Although he was a King-Ranked martial artist, in terms of cultivation level, he belonged to the Extreme Mortal Realm.
The difference between the Extreme Mortal Realm and the Heavenly Mystic Realm was huge. It was like the difference between heaven and earth.
Although Chen Zong felt that this was normal, he didn't know that Elder Fang was very surprised.
He used his own protective force to test the power of Chen Zong's sword strike. The result shocked Elder Fang. It was much stronger than he had expected.
"The power of your sword strike is very strong. In the Extreme Mortal Realm, I'm afraid you can't find anyone who can resist it." Elder Fang said with a slightly serious expression. Perhaps this evaluation wasn't absolute, but at least in his knowledge, it was really difficult to find anyone who could resist this sword strike in the Extreme Mortal Realm.
"If an ordinary Earthly Spirit Realm martial artist wasn't careful, they could be injured by this sword strike." Elder Fang said this in his heart. Only he knew.
"The members of the Extreme Heaven Association are the Association Master. Under the Association Master are the Elders. Under the Elders are the Sword Operators. There are three levels of Sword Operators: Gold Sword Operators, Silver Sword Operators, and Iron Sword Operators. Under the Sword Operators are the Extreme Swordsmen. The Extreme Swordsmen are also divided into three levels: Gold Sword Extreme Swordsmen, Silver Sword Extreme Swordsmen, and Iron Sword Extreme Swordsmen.
"Normally, people who just join the Extreme Heaven Association will become Iron Sword Extreme Swordsmen. As they contribute, their levels will gradually increase.
"Different ranks receive different treatment in the Polar Heaven Association," Lin Feng said.
"In view of your talent and strength, I will recommend you to be a Sword Operator in the name of an Elder," Elder Fang said seriously.
Hearing this, Xia Zhenghua was shocked. It took him decades of hard work to become a Sword Operator from an Extreme Swordsman. Chen Zong was also shocked.
"However, I can't guarantee that you will succeed. Even if you succeed, you will only be promoted to Iron Sword Operator. You have to be mentally prepared," Elder Fang said.
