Starting as a Grandmaster, all of my cultivation techniques are at max level.

Just as Ye Sanshu was filled with boundless hatred, staring intently at the three Venerable Xuanwei in front of him.

Xia Jin's voice rang out at that moment: "Fellow Daoist Ye, the conditions I promised you back then are now yours. Go, haven't you been thinking day and night about taking these three heads to your master's grave to atone for your sins with blood?"

"To atone with blood!! That's right! I will take their three heads to pay homage to my master!!"

Ye Sanshu grinned, his face contorted with rage.

He gripped the cane tightly, and a cold light flashed as he drew a long sword as thin as a willow leaf from it!

The sword reflected the bloodlust in his eyes.

Ye Sanshu gripped his sword and walked forward step by step.

"You three never dreamed this day would come, did you!"

Ye Sanshu's voice carried the resentment and venom accumulated over three thousand years.

"Three thousand years ago, my master was devoured by the three of you together, his soul scattered and his body annihilated!"

His face began to contort as he spoke, eventually descending into a near-mad state.

At this moment, Ye Sanshu seemed to be pouring out all the hatred he had accumulated over the past three thousand years.

"Three thousand years?" Venerable Xuanwei frowned as he looked at Ye Sanshu's unfamiliar face.

When did I offend such a person? And what exactly was this "three thousand years ago" he just mentioned?

"Hmph! Looks like your memory isn't so good!!" Ye Sanshu looked at the other party's somewhat confused appearance, and his killing intent intensified.

Venerable Xuanwei narrowed his eyes slightly, a blurry figure flashing through his mind. He immediately let out a cold sneer: "I remember now!! So that's it, you're that gambler's disciple!"

"That guy did have some luck; when the three of us devoured his sacred pill, a wisp of his divine soul managed to escape! Otherwise, no one would know this secret!"

"Hmph! Looks like you've finally remembered!" Ye Sanshu gritted his teeth, his eyes turning bloodshot. "In that case, you'd better go to hell and atone for my master's sins!"

In an instant, powerful sword energy spun wildly around Ye Sanshu, tearing countless cracks into the void of the entire secret realm.

A sudden gust of wind arose, and Ye Sanshu's figure had vanished!

The next second, he appeared behind Venerable Xuanwei.

However, the expected result did not occur! The heads of the three Venerable Xuanwei did not fall off; instead, the thin sword in Ye Sanshu's hand shattered inch by inch!

"Hahahaha!" Venerable Xuanwei threw his head back and laughed wildly, his voice full of mockery.

"Useless trash! You're not even a half-saint, don't you know that below the saint realm, everyone is just an ant? Even if the three of us stood here and you killed us, you couldn't harm us in the slightest!"

"You old bastard! You..." Ye Sanshu gritted his teeth, his eyes bloodshot.

He gripped the broken hilt of his sword tightly and roared, "If once isn't enough, then twice! Three times! A thousand times, ten thousand times! Until I tear you to pieces and make you pay for your blood debt!"

"What an overestimation of your abilities!" Venerable Qian Yuan sneered, his eyes filled with disdain. "Trash is trash. Even if you had ten thousand chances, you wouldn't be able to harm a single hair on our heads!"

Venerable Lingyuan had also recovered his senses by this time, his face full of disdain.

Xia Jin chuckled softly as she watched this scene.

With a gentle shrug, a stone sword appeared out of thin air in front of him.

Xia Jin extended her index finger and gently stroked the stone sword.

Instantly, a seven-colored glow appeared and coiled around the sword.

With a casual wave of her hand, Xia Jin sent the stone sword, enveloped in seven-colored light, flying like a meteor to Ye Sanshu's front.

He casually glanced at the three Venerable Xuanwei and said indifferently, "If he can't kill you, then if he had my sword, could he kill you?"

After saying that, he gave Ye Sanshu a look.

"Come on! Try my sword again! It's much sharper than yours; I'm sure you'll be satisfied!"

Ye Sanshu was startled, and a fierce glint appeared in his eyes. He suddenly reached out and grabbed the hilt of the stone sword!

Before he even made a move, he could already sense the terrifying power of the stone sword in his hand.

His lips curled into a slight smile again: "After you die, remember this: the person who killed you was named Ye Sanshu!"

As soon as he finished speaking, a devastating gale swept across the entire secret realm, and seven-colored sword energy swept in all directions!

Extremely fast, extremely ruthless!

No one saw how Ye Sanshu drew his sword; only three crisp cutting sounds rang out in succession!

The next second, three blood-stained heads crashed to the ground, rolling to Ye Sanshu's feet, their eyes wide open, dying with unresolved grievances!

Three headless corpses slowly fell to the ground, blood gushing out and staining the ground red.

Ye Sanshu gripped the stone sword, completely unconcerned about the blood splattered on him. Standing in the pool of blood, he felt an unprecedented sense of ease.

Indeed, at this moment, his nerves, which had been taut for three thousand years, finally relaxed completely.

The resentment in my heart can finally be released.

Ye Sanshu's legs went weak, and he knelt on the ground, letting out a long howl to the sky.

"Master!! Your disciple has finally avenged you!! The three-thousand-year-old grudge has been settled!!"

His weathered voice clearly carried a sense of grievance and pain, but also a sense of liberation that came from finally resolving a three-thousand-year-old obsession.

"It seems this guy is finally free! The inner demons on his path of cultivation have completely vanished! With his swordsmanship talent, if this hadn't happened, he probably would have already reached the Saint Realm!!"

Xia Jin stood quietly to the side, hands behind her back, without saying a word to disturb him, letting Ye Sanshu release the emotions he had accumulated over three thousand years.

But he secretly considered whether he should completely bring Ye Sanshu under the Heavenly Alliance's control.

"Very well! With my help and this fellow's talent in swordsmanship, he might even have a chance to reach the Great Perfection of the Saint Realm in the future! A subordinate at the Great Perfection of the Saint Realm is not bad!"

It took Ye Sanshu a full half-incense stick's time to slowly calm down, but his eyes were still red.

After taking a few deep breaths, he stood up, holding the seven-colored stone sword in both hands, and respectfully walked to Xia Jin: "Fellow Daoist Xia, thank you very much this time! If it weren't for your sword, it would have been almost impossible for me to cut off the heads of these three!"

"Please take back this sword!!"

"This sword...don't you want it!?"

Xia Jin smiled and shook her head, not only refusing to take it, but also casually waving it away.

In an instant, three more identical stone swords flew out of his sea of ​​consciousness, hovering above his head, echoing the stone sword in Ye Sanshu's hand. The four swords rang out together, radiating boundless light!

"These four stone swords are replicas of the Four Swords of Zhuxian, but although they are replicas, they are incredibly powerful! It's a pity that such treasures are of little use to me now, but they are perfect for you."

"Fine!! Considering you helped me obtain that Nine-Life Primordial Vine, I'll give you these four swords!!"

After hearing Xia Jin's words, a look of shock flashed in Ye Sanshu's eyes.

He didn't agree; instead, he shook his head.

"Fellow Daoist Xia, you have already shown me immense kindness by allowing me to personally slay my enemy and fulfill my three-thousand-year-old wish! I cannot accept such a precious treasure!"

Xia Jin looked at Ye Sanshu, then smiled.

This guy truly had no greed in his eyes.

However, there's no reason to take back what you've given away.

"I said it's a gift!! So take it!"

"If you feel bad about it, then join the Heavenly Alliance. The Heavenly Alliance has no formalities and will not restrict your freedom. You only need to lend a helping hand when the Heavenly Alliance needs it."

"This..." Ye Sanshu looked at Xia Jin, his expression constantly changing. After a long silence, he finally sighed.

"Since Fellow Daoist Xia thinks so highly of me, I agree to join the Heavenly Alliance! However... my lifespan is running out, and I'm afraid I won't be able to do much for the Heavenly Alliance."

In the end, his face was full of bitterness and helplessness.

Xia Jin smiled and shook his head: "If you remain below the Half-Saint realm, your lifespan will naturally be short. But what if I had a way to help you reach the Saint realm?"

Ye Sanshu was taken aback, then shook his head with a wry smile: "Fellow Daoist Xia, there's no need to comfort me. My own Dao foundation is damaged. Do you think I don't know whether I can step into the Saint Realm? It's hopeless in this life, maybe there's a chance in the next."

"What? You don't believe me?" Xia Jin raised an eyebrow with a strange expression. "Then watch how I help you break through to Sainthood in one step!"

As soon as she finished speaking, Xia Jin raised her hand and grabbed at the three headless corpses on the ground from a distance!

Three sacred pills were slowly extracted from the three corpses!

With a flash of seven-colored light from Xia Jin's fingertips, the three sacred pills were completely enveloped. Then, with a gentle flick, the three sacred pills transformed into three streams of light and directly merged into Ye Sanshu's body!

Ye Sanshu was shocked, his face filled with astonishment. He was about to speak when Xia Jin interrupted him.

"These three sacred pills can be absorbed quickly and without any obstacles under the suppression of my power."

"Not only can it completely heal the fatal Dao injury you sustained back then, but it also contains vast Saintly power, helping you break through to the Saintly Realm and ascend to the heavens in one step!"

"Three months from now, I want to see the Sword Maniac who has reached the Saint Realm!! Can you... do it?"
