Sole Sword Supremacy-Chapter 532 - 536: Treading the Moon

Awooo!

Under the barrage of demonic qi, the Mirage Dragon let out a mournful cry and suddenly plummeted from the sky, crashing to the ground. Wang Junze was also thrown off, but fortunately, Peng Ru was by his side, securely supporting Wang Junze, which kept him from appearing more disheveled.

In such a situation, anyone could see Wang Junze’s condition clearly.

For a moment, not only the Sect Leader of the Corpse Demon Sect but also the other demon cultivators couldn’t help but reveal a trace of greed in their eyes.

Who wouldn’t want a supreme treasure like the Great Nether Mirror?

Even knowing the chances of snatching it aren’t high, people still entertain a streak of wishful thinking, just in case.

Just like when they fought over the Other Shore Flower — didn’t most demon cultivators know that, with their level of cultivation, they had no chance of obtaining the Other Shore Flower?

Yet, they were still willing to take the gamble!

The Other Shore Flower was treated this way, so the Great Nether Mirror right before them — wouldn’t they want to gamble on it as well?

"Protect the young master!"

Peng Ru shouted fiercely, wielding a sword horizontally before her.

In fact, Huang Siyu, Yang Hong, and the Maiden of the Sea were already rushing towards Wang Junze, turning from attack to defense!

However, this change made the demon cultivators who had just arrived with Pei Haoran at the Netherworld Mansion involuntarily entertain other thoughts.

They had come following Pei Haoran for the benefits, believing Wang Junze could take down the Netherworld Mansion. But now the situation had reversed, making it clear that capturing the Netherworld Mansion was impossible. Naturally, they were unwilling to risk their lives further.

Instead, perhaps it wasn’t impossible to join the Netherworld Mansion’s forces and kill Wang Junze!

Even if they couldn’t snatch the Great Nether Mirror, maybe they could glean some other benefits!

If they were ruthless enough to wipe out the Four Seas Commerce Association, they could loot all its resources, couldn’t they?

Since they were driven by gain, it was impossible to expect these demon cultivators to have any integrity or loyalty.

"Kill, all members of the Four Seas Commerce Association, obey my orders, and protect Ye Piaoling with me. Kill anyone who dares to approach without mercy!"

With a hint of ferocity on his face, Pei Haoran shouted fiercely.

Although the demon cultivators didn’t listen to his commands, the members of the Four Seas Commerce Association did, and within moments, a number of experts gathered around Wang Junze, forming a strong defensive line!

"Like an ant trying to stop a chariot!"

The experts from the Four Seas Commerce Association could hold off the demon cultivators from the Netherworld Mansion but couldn’t stop the Sect Leader of the Corpse Demon Sect.

The sense of impending death had risen — Pei Haoran and the others were far from being able to hold it back.

In an instant, the Demon Corpse crashed into the crowd again, and despite countless attacks landing on it, they couldn’t damage the Demon Corpse at all. Those too slow to dodge were either smashed away, with bones fractured and tendons torn in less severe cases, or their organs shattered, resulting in instant death.

Meanwhile, the Sect Leader of the Corpse Demon Sect struck again, enveloped in terrifying demonic qi, heading straight for Wang Junze.

"Fight for your life!"

Raising his head, a determined look flashed in Wang Junze’s eyes, and he said solemnly, "Let him through; I’ll use the Great Nether Mirror to immobilize him, and all of you attack together. I want to see if he dares to trade his life for mine!"

Though the Demon Corpse was terrifying, with Huang Siyu and the others joining forces, it couldn’t break through easily to kill Wang Junze. The Sect Leader of the Corpse Demon Sect would have to act personally, and as long as he dared to come close, Wang Junze would risk his life to activate the Great Nether Mirror, thus having a chance to cooperate with others to kill him.

If he dared not, he could only have the demon cultivators from the Netherworld Mansion attack collectively, slowly breaking through the defense line of the Four Seas Commerce Association.

Although ultimately it might still be insufficient to stop them, it could buy some time.

Indeed, upon hearing Wang Junze’s words, the Sect Leader of the Corpse Demon Sect hesitated.

No matter how bad Wang Junze’s condition appeared, with the Great Nether Mirror in hand, he had to tread cautiously.

"Kill, kill them all! I only want the Great Nether Mirror; I won’t take anything else. I guarantee all other resources, including those from the Four Seas Commerce Association, are yours once they’re dead!"

Lurking from afar, the Sect Leader of the Corpse Demon Sect shouted fiercely again, "I’ll have the Demon Corpse clear the way and we’ll kill them together; they can’t stop us!"

Upon hearing this, the surrounding demon cultivators once again stirred, including those just brought by Pei Haoran, all pressing in towards Wang Junze and his group.

However, just as a feeling of despair was creeping into Wang Junze and his allies’ hearts, a dazzling sword aura suddenly tore through the void, forcibly cutting through the grand array of the Netherworld Mansion, descending from above!

Profound Moon Sword Technique!

In an instant, Wang Junze’s heart skipped a beat.

The sword aura was all too familiar to him.

Wang Junze’s first thought was whether Qu Lishang had extricated himself from the Nether Sea and hurried back, but this idea was immediately dismissed.

Because this sword aura wasn’t strong enough!

If Qu Lishang truly returned, one strike would be enough to annihilate everyone, demonstrating the might of the Saint Realm.

Yet, though powerful, this sword still clearly fell short of that supreme level!

Wang Junze didn’t need to speculate for long, as the next moment, a familiar figure emerged from the void!

Dressed in white, like a celestial maiden walking on the moon, when she appeared, it was as if all radiance was seized.

"Who dares hurt my junior brother!"

A sharp reprimand, and terrifying sword light fell again; in an instant, those demon cultivators from the Netherworld Mansion rushing at the forefront were immediately strangled by the sword light, turning into a mist of blood!

"Senior Sister Luo!"

Seeing the familiar figure in the air, a surge of warmth rushed through Wang Junze’s heart, moving him to exclaim.

Luo Qingxuan!

Wang Junze never expected that at this most dangerous moment, Luo Qingxuan would arrive at the Nether Sea, slicing out a path of life for him with just one strike!

In fact, more than just Luo Qingxuan had come!

In the next moment, dozens of figures followed and flew into the Netherworld Mansion, simultaneously swinging their swords at the demon cultivators before them.

"Profound Moon Sword Sect!!!"

At that moment, even the slowest to react among them realized the identity of those who had come.

The disciples of the Profound Moon Sword Sect had arrived from the Northern Domain!

In an instant, chaos ensued among the crowd. Those demon cultivators just itching to betray now suddenly realized and quickly turned to fight against the Netherworld Mansion’s forces.

Even though the Profound Moon Sword Sect seemed to have declined somewhat over the years, it was still one of the Four Great Celestial Sects!

With the arrival of the Profound Moon Sword Sect’s disciples, the shock still caused trepidation among the demon cultivators of the Nether Sea.

"Die for me!"

With a flash of madness in his eyes, the Sect Leader of the Corpse Demon Sect realized the situation was unfavorable but didn’t flee, instead coordinating with the Demon Corpse to attack Wang Junze again.

So what if they’re from the Profound Moon Sword Sect?

He had just scanned through them — there wasn’t even one at the Entering the Path level, let alone in the Saint Realm. Leading them, Luo Qingxuan was merely at the Divine Travel stage; with the Demon Corpse, these Profound Moon Sword Sect disciples wouldn’t be able to stop him!
