Chapter 336: Burn the Bridge After Crossing the River, Kill the Donkey After It Leaves the Millstone
“The matter of the divine essence is of great importance. I hope that we must keep it a secret and not allow any leaks.”
Following the old cultivator’s words, another Heavenly King Realm cultivator also spoke.
“If news of such a large amount of divine essence escapes, none of the people present will be able to escape. Do you understand?”
Even though many of the disciples had low levels of cultivation, they were still very sensitive to the threat they felt towards their lives.
The disciples looked at each other.
Following that, a disciple stepped forward and said.
“Seniors, please rest assured. I can swear to the grand elder…”
Before he could finish his words, he was cut into halves by the senior in front of him.
The aftershock did not dissipate, it directly cut into the bodies of the others.
It cut more than ten disciples behind him into pieces.
The expressions of the nearby disciples changed.
This was no longer a small matter. This was a matter that threatened their lives.
Especially that disciple just now.
That disciple was an ordinary person of the Saint Realm in their Sect.
However, he was loved by many people. Even the grand elder was extremely fond of him.
He was highly praised, but the current situation was that he was killed by his master’s sword.
Not to mention what would happen to the rest of the disciples.
“Leave no one alive. Show no mercy.”
As he spoke, the leading cultivator from the Star Constellation Palace took out his Kunlun ancient mirror.
He injected the spiritual essence from his body into it, causing the space to tremble incessantly.
Visible changes appeared in the Crystal Palace.
Mysterious words rose into the sky. Although they were blurry, the powerful energy they emitted could not be ignored.
Immediately after, the words fell into the crowd.
The shocked disciples realized that they could not move.
“Give up struggling. This is for your own good. You can also have less pain.”
As the words fell, hundreds of disciples were crushed into minced meat.
The other Heavenly Kings also hardened their hearts. They took out their weapons and charged towards the disciples.
The disciples really could not imagine it.
Their teachers, whom they usually respected, would actually kill them for these divine essences.
Many disciples did not even have time to react before they were injured by the aftershocks.
Then, they died with a strike of the sword.
However, the disciples would not just wait for their teachers to come and take their lives.
They began to flee in all directions, or they began to resist.
Xuan Yi took advantage of the chaos to hide in the crowd, taking advantage of the fact that no one was paying attention to him.
He prepared to leave.
Just as Xuan Yi arrived at the entrance of the cave…
A figure came before Xuan Yi.
It was the old monster of from the Star Constellation Palace.
“Hehe, little guy, there seems to be something intriguing on your body. You won’t be able to hold onto it.”
Xuan Yi’s face was cold as he ignored the other party.
He had long known that his small actions would not be able to escape the old man’s eyes.
After all, the other party was someone at the peak of the Heavenly King Realm.
However, Xuan Yi also played along and kept all the small rocks from the ground.
“Alright, I’ll give you a chance. Hand them over.”
Xuan Yi took out his long sword.
“I will resist stubbornly.”
The old man said nothing more. In his eyes, the current Xuan Yi was just a weakling who was in the Law Enforcement Realm.
He could kill the boy with just a casual move.
Therefore, he did not use all his strength.
Xuan Yi had already expected this.
Just as the attack was about to arrive, the aura on his body suddenly increased.
After taking the old monster’s attack head on, he did not retreat but instead advanced.
He continued to advance towards the exit.
The other Heavenly Kings naturally also noticed that something was not right.
A scorching flame slashed towards Xuan Yi’s back.
“Ignorant youth, quickly surrender. Don’t resist, your master will give you a quick death.”
“Hehe, nonsense. You are not worthy of it.”
The other party was obviously angry, and the flame became increasingly hot.
It was about to reach Xuan Yi’s back.
Xuan Yi turned around and counterattacked. His longsword blocked the other party’s attack, and the biting cold sword intent shook the space incessantly.
The saber light was accompanied by intense flames, and the figure behind him turned into a three-legged golden crow.
However, perhaps due to his low realm, the phenomenon that appeared was obviously incomplete.
Xuan Yi snorted coldly and activated his dual domain.
The terrifying sword intent on the body of the sword was like a bloodthirsty devil, releasing a cold killing intent.
Around Xuan Yi’s body, huge stars suddenly appeared and suddenly descended, and starlight sprinkled down the heavenly river.
A terrifying intent was contained within.
“You, you are?”
The opponent recognized Xuan Yi’s signature dual domain.
But it was too late. Scorching flames engulfed the space, and the black flames seemed to have a strange power.
The opponent’s move didn’t even have the slightest effect as it was completely devoured by Xuan Yi’s martial skill.
Then, it ruthlessly smashed onto the opponent’s broadsword.
The surging sword intent penetrated through the opponent’s defense.
The broadsword, which could be said to be of top quality, instantly turned into pieces and fell to the ground.
The scene of the Small World behind him also suffered a strong impact.
It directly shattered and a mouthful of blood gushed out.
The blood could no longer be stopped. His aura actually paused and his body continuously retreated.
However, Xuan Yi did not intend to let him go and continued to chase after him.
The other Heavenly Kings recognized Xuan Yi from their previous exchange.
“Dual domain, you are Xuan Yi from the Sage Board!”
“What? Isn’t Xuan Yi in the Middle Saint Academy? Why is he here? Could it be that the Middle Saint Academy had received this news as well?”
“Let’s stop talking nonsense and attack together.”
A few Heavenly Kings attacked Xuan Yi from all directions.
The surging spiritual essence was like the waves of the sea. It was endless, and the tides rose and fell.
Xuan Yi chased after the retreating enemy. His eyes looked at the numerous attacks that were about to land on his body.
He lowered his center of gravity and lowered his body. His body took advantage of the situation to spin.
A horizontal slash repelled the attacks of the many Heavenly Kings.
His body moved again and appeared in front of the Heavenly King who first attacked him.
They looked at Xuan Yi in disbelief.
They did not understand how he was able to repel their attacks with one strike.
He was only at the Sage realm.
He actually had such terrifying strength.
“Stop, Xuan Yi. Don’t try to act fierce. Otherwise, even if you have someone at the peak of the Emperor Realm behind you, they won’t be able to protect you.”
Xuan Yi naturally ignored the old monster’s words.
He took a step forward. The person in his eyes had a look of fear on his face as he slashed down with his sword.
The shocking black flame bloomed into a huge fire lotus and swallowed him directly.
Then, he was torn into pieces by the raging sword energy.
He killed a Heavenly King in just three moves.
Everyone present began to doubt their own eyes.
Xuan Yi was indeed as powerful as the rumors said.
He actually managed to do this with the strength of a Sage.
It was really unbelievable.
“You’re courting death. No matter who’s behind you, today, you have to die here!”
