Just as the sword blade flew out, Li Chanchan suddenly flicked her fingers, and the mysterious energy that was pinched forth instantly shot out, appearing directly on the path of the sword blade fragment as if by teleportation.

Poof—

Without any hindrance, the sword blade penetrated straight through the energy.

The next second, the Black Bear Demon Ancestor, who was fiercely battling Zhao Gengyun, let out a cry that shook the heavens and earth. Its head, large as a star, exploded with a roar, suffering critical damage!

At the same time, Li Chanchan groaned, her expression changed slightly, and a hideous and terrifying blood mark suddenly appeared on her left hand.

Transference technique, rebirth to avoid death!

This mysterious sword blade strike, originally intended for critical damage or even slaying, was forcibly transferred by Li Chanchan onto the Black Bear Demon Ancestor.

However, the power of this sword blade was too fierce.

After the transference, Li Chanchan also suffered from the backlash.

Strike while he's down!

Seeing the Black Bear Ancestor severely injured, Zhao Gengyun immediately seized the flaw that must not be missed.

"All things live, thus heaven and earth live; all things perish, thus all heavens perish!

Heaven and Earth Annihilating Millstone!"

With a clear shout, Zhao Gengyun directly invoked the most powerful slaughter!

Rumble!

In an instant, heaven and earth seemed to flip, all things vanished into silence, time and space in chaos, as endless divine light of nature formed two ancient, desolate, and dim stone mills. One was engraved with [life], the other with [death]!

The two millstones emitted a primordial and heavy aura, attracting each other, constantly closing.

The headless Black Bear, caught in the center of the millstones, seemed to sense the crisis, immediately raising its stout arms attempting to stop the grind of the two millstones.

However, the fierceness of this technique could not be resisted by the Black Bear Ancestor in its current state. Even bursting out with all its might, it struggled to withstand the pressure akin to heaven and earth closing in, with chunks of muscles and bones bursting apart, legs bending, about to be crushed under the millstones.

The descending millstones began to rotate, obliterating heaven and earth, crushing all things with the power to end all.

The Primordial Spirit Dharma of the Black Bear Demon Ancestor visibly began to decline, clothes dirty and foul, the hair on its head withered, sweat flowing under the arms, the body stinking, and spirit dispirited.

Clearly showing the signs of the Five Decays of Heaven and Man heading toward extinction! 𝗳𝚛𝗲𝕖𝕨𝕖𝗯𝚗𝚘𝕧𝕖𝗹.𝗰𝗼𝕞

Its spine bent, bones creaking unable to support, the gradually closing celestial millstone was about to ultimately finish off this great demon ancestor of the Primordial Spirit Realm.

But just as the Black Bear Demon Ancestor was about to meet its end.

A sword light suddenly descended, shattering this celestial millstone with earth-splitting force, granting the Black Bear Demon Ancestor on the verge of being ground to extinction a sliver of chance for survival.

Exhausting the last breath of sword qi granted by Mr. Li inside, the White Snake Ancestor knew there was no longer time or opportunity to deal with the two Human Race True Venerables.

"We can't stay here, we've got the stuff, let's move now!"

Unleashing a devouring blood maw, the White Snake Ancestor swallowed the heavily injured Black Bear Ancestor whole, turned around, flicked its tail, and from the tip of the tail a dense black blade suddenly emerged. The surging and turbulent forbidden power instantly tore through the spatial boundaries of this Yellow River world, transforming into a white light, darting away.

Seeing the White Snake Ancestor preparing to escape, Li Chanchan moved to pursue, but Zhao Gengyun, holding his chest and with a grave expression, appeared blocking his path.

"Don't chase."

"Just let them go like this?"

Frowning slightly, looking at Zhao Gengyun whose aura was weak, obviously heavily injured, Li Chanchan hesitated to speak.

"Cornered enemies should not be pursued, plus those two demons, though not as strong as us, aside from that excessively powerful mysterious sword blade, I also sensed a deeply hidden threat on them.

If we forcefully intercept, it might be hard to wrap up.

First, report the situation to the Dao Alliance, this incident is far more complicated than we imagined." Glancing at the dire, frightening scar on his chest, Zhao Gengyun's expression was solemn.

Is it... him?

...

At the same time, across the nine major provinces exhibiting divine marvel phenomena, they faced situations akin to Dianchuan.

Mysterious sword blades, Primordial Spirit Demons inexplicably infiltrating Central Earth's borders.

Primordial Spirit level battles erupted simultaneously across the nine provinces.

Yet, compared to the Pyrrhic stalemate in Dianchuan, the battle outcomes in the other eight provinces were even more tragic.

Yan Yu, Green Border, and Lu Jin each lost a Primordial Spirit True Honor in battle, and the other Primordial Spirit True Honors suffered varying degrees of severe injury.

On the demon side, although four Primordial Spirit Demons were left behind.

Yet, those nine exceptionally mysterious and overwhelmingly powerful sword blades were all taken away.

The result instantly stirred a great uproar within the Dao Alliance!

The calamity is approaching, and the Human Race's True Venerable is the main force in this great calamity, but now, without the outside domain Alien Race even arriving, a single strange incursion from the Hundred Thousand Great Mountains resulted in the deaths of three True Venerables.

Such losses made them almost unacceptable to the Dao Alliance.

"Counterattack! We must counterattack!

With the calamity arising, these demons are getting bolder and bolder. Have they forgotten who drove them to the Hundred Thousand Great Mountains in the first place?"

"That's right! If this continues, we will be tormented to death by these demons even before the alien race descends from outside the domain.

In my opinion, offense is the best defense.

Anyway, these demons already see us as a thorn in their side, a pebble in their shoe.

We must first stabilize the internal situation before dealing with external threats. While the alien races can't enter the Home Realm yet, we should take this chance to thoroughly clear out these filthy demons, so we can focus entirely on resisting the alien races!"

"Indeed, I feel the same way!"

"Damn it! Motherf***er, I'll first bring in the five Heaven-Splitting Cannons and bombard them for half a month!"

The recent actions of the Hundred Thousand Great Mountains have undoubtedly ignited the fury of the Human Clan's True Venerables.

For years, whenever the Hundred Thousand Great Mountains instigated invasions, they turned a blind eye, leaving it to the lower sect aristocracy to handle.

After all, defending against the alien races was the matter requiring their full attention.

Compared to before, now they have time to deal with such matters every single second.

Moreover, the demon invasions are actually beneficial to the human cultivation world, now blessed by the Human Dao's Divine Marvel.

However, this event has undoubtedly touched the bottom line of the Dao Alliance.

Infiltrating Central Earth, stealing divine objects, assassinating True Venerables!

Performing these three actions in succession completely treats the Human Race as clay to be molded as they see fit.

If the Human Race doesn't show their stance, problems will arise not only from the Hundred Thousand Great Mountains but also within their own ranks.

In front of the True Venerables suppressing their anger below, Qinglian Sword Venerable slowly stood up, his sharp and bright eyes scanning everyone.

"Fight fiercely and withstand all attacks.

Since the Hundred Thousand Great Mountains treat our Human Race as nothing, then it's time we let them know.

Who is truly the Primordial Heavenly Venerable!

Who is truly the main character of Heaven and Earth!"

Hua——

As Qinglian Sword Venerable's words fell, the True Venerables' eyes blazed with divine light, the surge of powerful energy within them unresting, as a unified smile appeared on their lips.

Yes, it is indeed time to let these filthy demons know.

Who is truly the Master of Primordial Heaven!

...

Hundred Thousand Great Mountains, emerald bamboo grove.

With wounds but hidden joy in their eyes, a group of Primordial Spirit Demons knelt outside the bamboo grove, respectfully laying down nine mysterious sword blades retrieved from Central Earth before them.

The sound of rustling footsteps approached.

The demons slowly raised their heads, looking towards the supreme being who ruled the Hundred Thousand Great Mountains.

"Not bad, you did bring everything back."

"It was all thanks to Mr. Li's brilliant strategy. Without Mr. Li's Sword Qi assistance, we couldn't have escaped easily, let alone killed some Human Clan's True Venerables."

Upon hearing the praise from that solitary and lofty figure, a Primordial Spirit Ancient Demon swiftly flattered him.

The surrounding Primordial Spirit Demons glared disdainfully but secretly regretted not speaking up sooner.

Stepping slowly in front of the speaking Primordial Spirit Demon, the man looked down with cold, indifferent eyes resembling a frosty moon hanging high above the Nine Heavens.

"However, I seem to remember I once said before your departure.

This treasure retrieval should not have any complications.

Once you succeed, withdraw immediately.

Who gave you the audacity to act without permission, assassinating the Human Race's True Venerables.

Hmm?!"

With that 'hmm,' his tone suddenly sharpened!

In an instant!

The skies above the bamboo grove turned colorless, a terrifying killing intent disturbing the winds and clouds, changing the expressions of all the Primordial Spirit Demons.

We are done for, flattery went wrong.

...
