The Holy Zhi Palace began a period of recuperation and reorganization. All the top forces in the Barren State.
The Sovereign Family, the Ice Temple, Alchemy City, and many other cultivators officially moved into the Holy Zhi Palace to cultivate and become part of the Holy Zhi Palace. In the context of the Sacred War, the power of the Barren State would be gathered together.
There were also many mighty ones ranked on the Barren Sky Ranking who answered the call and came to the Holy Zhi Palace. The last Sacred War had shown them the hope of the Barren State's holy land rising again. Ye Futian was likely to lead the Holy Zhi Palace into a new era.
Since that was the case, they would gamble.
The Barren State was shaken. The top forces that did not enter the Holy Zhi Palace, such as the Ximen Clan and the Mortal World, were isolated.
The current Barren State made them feel like they had entered an era of unification.
No one would have thought that the era of unification would happen in the context of the Sacred War.
Although the Holy Zhi Palace had gone through a disaster, it seemed to have opened a new era.
The disciples of the Holy Zhi Palace were all diligent cultivators. They entered the Sage Hall to cultivate, comprehend, and practice battle matrixes. The Matrix Palace Lord Yang Xiao was also exceptionally busy. He even led the people of the Holy Zhi Palace to set up matrixes in the Holy Zhi Palace.
In the past, the Holy Zhi Palace lacked top-notch matrix grandmasters. The holy lands in the Eastern State all had protective matrixes that were very terrifying. Some holy lands even had Saint-level matrixes. Even if a saint invaded, it would be difficult to shake them.
Now that the Holy Zhi Palace had a Matrix Palace, they naturally had to keep up.
Countless people in the Barren State were discussing the changes in the Barren State. At this time, in an open-air restaurant in Zhongzhou City, many people were drinking and chatting.
"I heard that after the Sacred War, six cultivators on the Barren Sky Ranking have entered the Holy Zhi Palace to cultivate. I didn't think that after that battle, the Holy Zhi Palace's power would not only not weaken, but instead become stronger."
"Yes, this time the Barren State's will is unified. This Sacred War has brought out the passion of the Barren State. I hope that one day, Ye Futian can really lead the people of the Holy Zhi Palace to the Great Zhou Sacred Dynasty's imperial city."
Many people's words were filled with passion.
In one of the restaurants, there were three figures sitting quietly. At that moment, one of them frowned and said, "The Great Zhou Sacred Dynasty is so powerful. Although they were defeated in that battle, the Barren State being able to protect itself is already good enough. Wanting to kill their way into the Barren City of the Great Zhou Sacred Dynasty is just a pipe dream."
Someone glanced at the person who spoke and said coldly, "Are you trying to boost the morale of others?"
"Shut up." The person beside that person reminded him and glared at the person who spoke. Immediately, that person only snorted coldly and didn't say anything.
"Buzz."
At this moment, a gust of wind blew over. The people in the inn raised their heads and looked at the sky. They saw a great roc spreading its wings and flying through the air. Its sharp eyes swept over the inn.
The three people at the table who had just spoken frowned. One of them said, "Another Great Peng?"
They seemed to have seen the giant rocs several times. They didn't know if they were the same one, but they had never been so close to it before.
Just as they were frowning, the eyes of the great roc seemed to sweep over them. Suddenly, one of them felt the hair on his body stand up and said in a stern voice, "Not good."
As he said that, he stood up, feeling waves of coldness all over his body. He said, "Retreat."
The other two seemed to have realized what had happened. The three of them flashed and wanted to retreat.
However, at this moment, a powerful aura descended. A figure stepped from afar and appeared directly in front of them, blocking their way.
"Senior, what can I do for you?" The three looked at the figure who had appeared and said.
The person who had come was Qin Zhuang, the number one swordsman of Tombkeeper Village.
"To kill you," Qin Zhuang spat out. As his voice landed, his body turned into a shadow.
Three flashes of sword aura exploded at the same time. The shadow coalesced and turned into the figure of Qin Zhuang, appearing directly behind the three.
As for the three cultivators, blood appeared on their throats. Their bodies fell from the sky.
A sword cut through their throats.
At the same time, similar scenes played out in many places in the Zhongzhou State. Many people were killed by the cultivators who had come out of the Holy Zhi Palace. Only before they died did they realize that after the retreat that day, they had been watched by passing demonic beasts.
However, they remembered that many of the demonic beasts had only flashed past them. How did these demonic beasts manage to fly so far away?
Could it be that the demonic beasts that had inadvertently passed by were a single entity?
These cultivators who had been killed were the spies that the Great Zhou Sacred Dynasty had left in the Barren State after the retreat, to keep track of the Barren State's movements at all times.
…
In the sky above the Great Zhou Sacred Dynasty's imperial capital in the Eastern State, there would occasionally be one or two demonic beasts passing by, and they were sage-level demons.
In the Infinite Mountains, extremely far away from the Holy Capital, the Great Zhou Sacred Dynasty's number one clan, the Infinite Palace, was built in this mountain range.
There were even towns erected around the mountains, with the Infinite Palace as the center. It was quite prosperous.
The Infinite Palace was like a crouching dragon lying across a mountain range. It was majestic and extremely imposing.
This number one clan of the Great Zhou Sacred Dynasty had an extremely high status in the territory ruled by the Great Zhou Sacred Dynasty. Even the royal family had to pay their respects when they came.
The Palace Lord of the Infinite Palace was also an existence on the Sage and Saint Ranking.
However, at this time, outside the Infinite Palace, there was a group of people walking straight into the Infinite Palace.
"Who are you?" The guards outside the Infinite Palace stopped them. The leading guards were all sage-level figures. They released a faint aura and stared at the group of people in front of them.
There were dozens of people in this group, and all of them had extraordinary temperaments. No one knew where they were from.
"Sage." A slightly lazy voice sounded. It was a middle-aged man dressed in gray. His eyes were extremely sharp, like a sword. Although there was a smile in his eyes, it still gave people a strong sense of coldness.
"Kill them."
Said another voice. Suddenly, a terrifying Sword Will exploded. The Sage Plane cultivator's expression changed and he retreated.
However, he only saw an incomparably bright golden sword light that seemed to be faster than light. It expanded wildly in his eyes and directly slashed between his eyebrows. He didn't even feel any pain.
Puff! A sound was heard. A line of blood appeared between the figure's eyebrows, and then his body fell. The Noble beside him changed his expression and quickly retreated. At the same time, he roared, "Enemy attack!"
The sound penetrated the space and went up the stairs towards the Infinite Palace. In an instant, a group of figures rose into the air. Many of them were sage-level figures. The foundation of the number one clan in the Great Zhou Sacred Dynasty was fully displayed.
Someone had actually invaded the Infinite Palace?
Outside the Infinite Palace, the figures rose into the air. Each of them released an extremely powerful aura as they swept their gazes towards the sky.
"Qin Zhuang, how about we compete to see who can kill faster?" the grey-robed man from before said.
"Alright." Qin Zhuang nodded. In the next moment, the two of them disappeared, turning into two shadows.
"It's the people of the Holy Zhi Palace." Some of the cultivators in the void who had gone to the Barren State to participate in the war recognized these people. Their expressions suddenly changed.
"The people of the Barren State have invaded." A voice rang out in the air. As soon as he finished speaking, a golden beam of light pierced through the air and passed right in front of him. His head was directly sent flying into the air, his eyes filled with endless fear.
Qin Zhuang specialized in spatial swordsmanship. He had the ability to control spatial movements. His speed was terrifying. In Tombkeeper Village, he was the number one person under the Village Chief.
Beams of golden sword light shot all the way into the sky. Beside them, there was also a terrifying Slaughter Sword Will all the way up.
"How dare you!" A roar sounded. At the peak of the distant mountains, a towering figure stood above the palace, filled with endless majesty. It was the Palace Lord of the Infinite Palace, Sage Wuliang.
The Infinite Body exploded, and his aura was terrifying. He raised his palm, and suddenly, the Infinite Sword Diagram appeared, covering the sky. Thousands of giant swords appeared in front of him, and as he pressed forward with his finger, the Infinite Sword pierced through the void, flying towards Qin Zhuang and Xu Shang.
Sage Wuliang's expression was extremely dignified and cold. The people of the Barren State dared to directly attack the Infinite Palace.
Beside him, several top figures appeared. They were all at the Sage level, and they were all at the peak.
The Infinite Palace, the number one clan of the Great Zhou Sacred Dynasty.
Qin Zhuang saw the Infinite Sword that covered the sky coming towards him. He pointed his finger forward, and an incomparably dazzling golden sword appeared, slamming into the Infinite Sword Diagram. An incomparably bright light burst out, tearing the void and shattering the Infinite Sword Diagram.
"Spatial swordsmanship." The people of the Infinite Palace all felt Qin Zhuang's strength. In the battle outside the Holy Zhi Palace that day, they did not have the opportunity to carefully feel each person's strength. But at this moment, Qin Zhuang was fighting alone, and the combat power that burst out made Sage Wuliang quite shocked.
"Formation," Sage Wuliang said loudly. Sage Wuliang said in a clear voice. In an instant, countless cultivators in the Infinite Palace flashed behind him, and a similar aura erupted from their bodies.
It was obvious that even Sage Wuliang of the Sage and Saint Ranking did not dare to be careless in the face of the invasion of the Barren State's cultivators.
In the battle that day, he had personally experienced the tenacity and strength of the Barren State. He had even returned with serious injuries.
The few swordsmen in front of him had formed a powerful sword matrix. He did not dare to underestimate them.
"Yuan Hong, I'll leave the battle matrix to you." The Sword Demon said to Yuan Hong on the other side. This time, in order to deal with the Infinite Palace, they had sent dozens of cultivators.
Nine swordsmanship cultivators and 36 martial arts cultivators.
"Alright." Yuan Hong nodded. As his voice landed, nine beams of sword light shot into the sky, and a brilliant sword diagram suddenly appeared in the sky. The nine cultivators stood in the sword diagram, and at the same time, countless sage ritual implements appeared and merged into it.
At this moment, a monstrous sword aura exploded in the sky, and behind the nine people, thousands of beams of sword light swallowed and spat out.
Qin Zhuang was in the middle, holding the Divine Sword and controlling the sword matrix.
In front of the nine people, around the sword diagram, dazzling spatial swords appeared. Incomparably dazzling light burst out, and the giant swords pierced through the void and fell down. Feeling the sword might within, many of the cultivators of the Infinite Palace trembled violently, and a faint sense of foreboding grew in them!
