Checking in for 100,000 Years
Chapter 1065: The Four Extinguishers! Seven Slaughter Sect!
Boom...
The lake water churned as the nine Immortal Stone Clans stood back up, reattaching their severed limbs.
Though their movements were awkward, they could still stand and move.
This was due to the destructive aura of the Sword of Death Realm lingering at the severed points of their limbs.
"Who exactly are you?"
Glaring at Ye Yun, an Immortal Stone Tribe member asked resentfully.
"You Immortal Stone Clans, once renowned as one of the Five Great Heavenly Demons of the previous age, have become lapdogs to the Spirits?"
Ye Yun sneered.
"..."
The nine Immortal Stone Clans were rigid, falling silent at Ye Yun’s words as if they stirred turmoil within their hearts.
"Tell me, who ordered you to lurk in Blood Abyss Lake for ten million years?"
Ye Yun raised his eyebrows and asked coldly.
"I have no comment!"
Suddenly, an Immortal Stone Tribe member laughed loudly and said viciously, "Since you know we are the Immortal Stone Tribe, you must know that our kind fears no threats!"
"Is it just that you’re not afraid of dying?"
Ye Yun chuckled.
He extended a finger and pointed at the nine giants.
"Stasis!"
At that moment, the Stasis Technique was activated.
The nine Immortal Stone Clan members were fixed in Blood Abyss Lake.
Afterward, Ye Yun took out a Spatial Magic Treasure and collected the Immortal Stone Clans.
Having done all this, Ye Yun looked around and erased parts of the memories of those remaining in the lake as necessary.
With a flash of his figure, Ye Yun left Blood Abyss Lake.
His two swords sped across the sky above distant mountains, currently pursuing that translucent gray figure.
The void fluctuated slightly as Ye Yun emerged from it.
"Let’s see where you, the assassin, plan to flee to?"
Watching from afar as the two swords rapidly chased the gray figure, Ye Yun smiled discreetly.
In Divine Land, there are numerous powerful factions.
Regarding the mysterious killer organization, legend holds four forces are the strongest.
These four forces are the Sect of Seven Kills, Sect of Killing Life, Sect of Killing God, and Sect of Inhibition Demons.
The Four Great Assassin Sects are renowned in Divine Land, known as the Four Exterminations.
The Four Exterminations are mysterious killer factions that inspire fear.
Even the former Supreme God Sovereign only knew of them by name.
The Four Exterminations are shrouded in mystery because they seldom appear, and when they do, they target powerhouses of at least the Half-step God King Realm.
This gray figure, with such incredible hiding, escaping, and assassination swordsmanship, is likely from these mysterious Four Exterminations.
Ye Yun didn’t kill this assassin but wanted to see where he might flee to.
That Silver Sword lacked power.
Therefore, Ye Yun summoned the Heaven-Slaying Sword to pursue as well, ensuring greater certainty.
This sword has already birthed an Artifact Spirit with independent consciousness; as long as Ye Yun commands it, it will strictly execute his orders.
Ye Yun reached out and recalled the Silver Sword.
Presently, this sword wasn’t needed.
Let the Heaven-Slaying Sword keep watch.
No one can escape the pursuit of the Heaven-Slaying Sword.
Anyone thinking of claiming the Heaven-Slaying Sword is seeking their own death.
No one in Divine Land qualifies for such a sword capable of splitting Heavenly Dao.
This Heaven-Slaying Sword, even when not directly wielded by Ye Yun, possesses extraordinarily terrifying combat power.
"How can this sword be so terrifying?"
The gray figure, fleeing, using various secret techniques, constantly traversing the void yet unable to shake off the sword behind, pondered in horror.
The second sword following after, in comparison to that initial Silver Sword, was even more terrifying to him.
"This sword’s origins must be extraordinary, seeming more formidable than our Sect’s God level top quality sword..."
Thought the gray figure.
At that moment, he decided to return to the Sect.
To lure the sword back.
Also, to try and lure its master back to the Sect.
Only then might he survive.
After all, that white-clothed youth’s swordsmanship is astonishing; he didn’t get hurt under the Nine-star Exorcism Sword Formation but broke it powerfully instead.
The nine God King Realm Layer Ten Immortal Stone Clan members were not his match even combined.
He, at God King Stage Eight, was even less of a match.
Fluent in concealment and assassination, his own cultivation base wasn’t too high.
The Sect of Seven Kills’ assassination philosophy is that as long as a thunderous strike can kill the target at a specific time and place, the task is completed.
Thus, the battle is not determined by realm alone.
...
A flash of light passed.
The gray figure used a teleportation array hidden in the mountains, escaping swiftly.
But the sword firmly locked onto him, following the teleportation array.
Ye Yun remained close on its tail.
The Heaven-Slaying Sword sensed him instinctively; it wouldn’t lose track.
Teleporting consecutively, the gray figure distanced himself from the miniature world of Blood Abyss Lake, arriving at a vast territory in the southernmost part of Divine Land.
This land was barren, filled with dangerous creatures and sparse spiritual energy, rarely inhabited.
"This is the Ancient Sand Domain..."
Ye Yun emerged from the void, examining the terrain and confirming his conclusion.
This domain lies at Divine Land’s southern end, relatively impoverished.
"Which of the Four Exterminations could it be?"
Ye Yun squinted towards the vanished gray figure, smiling faintly.
He remained still, not pursuing further yet.
Let the Heaven-Slaying Sword play for a while.
Through the Heaven-Slaying Sword, Ye Yun sensed the surrounding situation.
The gray figure eventually dashed into a colossal valley after escaping through the void.
In the valley’s periphery, wave-like light rose.
His body also glowed, projecting him inward without obstruction.
The Heaven-Slaying Sword flashed and dove into the formation.
This sword is indestructible; such formations cannot hold it.
Clang, clang, clang!
A harmonious clock sound resonated above vast buildings.
Figures immediately flew over from all directions.
"Someone has infiltrated the Sect!" someone shouted.
"Sect Master, save me!"
The gray figure showed his true form as he entered the great formation.
A frail old man dressed in gray.
Holding a sword in his hand.
The Heaven-Slaying Sword suddenly halted mid-air, sensing its surroundings intently.
"Master, I’ve found their lair!"
Through telepathic sensing, the Heaven-Slaying Sword transmitted a Divine Thought.
"Very good, stir them up a bit..."
Ye Yun’s Divine Thought came through.
Through the Heaven-Slaying Sword, he saw the plaque of the Sect.
Three large characters were inscribed.
Sect of Seven Kills!
This killer faction ranks third among the Four Exterminations.
"Lu Jiu, it’s not your turn yet. Why have you returned from Blood Abyss Lake?"
A half-step God Emperor Realm middle-aged man, demeanor dignified and strides powerful, walked from the void.
"Reporting to the Sect Master, the Goddess of Ancient emerged at Blood Abyss Lake. I managed a sneak attack and shattered her heart with a single sword!"
The man named Lu Jiu said, fists clasped.
He scanned with Divine consciousness, seeing the sword halted mid-air, and sighed quietly.
This sword, so obediently suspended, must be terrified by the Sect’s many powerhouses.
"Piercing the Goddess of Ancient’s heart? Excellent, you’ve made great merit!"
The middle-aged man laughed heartily.
His gaze shifted, landing on the sword, and he exclaimed in surprise, "Is this peerless sword you brought back?"
