The First Venerable of All Paths

"One sword can shatter all laws!"

Fang Xuan, wielding the Phoenix Cry Sword, slashed forward fiercely.

In an instant, a dazzling sword light burst forth from the sword, transforming into a rainbow of light that stretched across the sky and roared away.

"Help me!"

Wen Donglin, whose cultivation had plummeted to rock bottom, felt a chilling killing intent lock onto him, and was immediately terrified, his heart trembling as he screamed.

He knew very well that he couldn't block or withstand this sword strike.

Zhou Yan, who was on the edge of the Ten Thousand Malaria Forest, also noticed this.

He immediately formed hand seals and continuously poured the Yuan energy within his body into the array plate in front of him.

"Wind, rain, thunder, and lightning—the seasons cycle!"

At the same time, a fierce wind arose, torrential rain poured down, and lightning flashed across the sky.

The entire Wanzhang Forest looked like the end of the world, making people's hearts tremble.

The triple magic array began to transform rapidly.

It transformed into a wind blade, slashing through the air.

A single sword of rain descended, covering the sky and the earth.

A single lightning spear can destroy the void.

Instead of protecting Wen Donglin, Zhou Yan took this opportunity to prepare to kill Fang Xuan.

Faced with Zhou Yan's triple killing intent, Fang Xuan's expression remained unchanged.

Instead, a faint, sarcastic smile appeared at the corner of his mouth.

"One sword breaks all laws" is the third move in the sword technique of "Breaking All Laws".

It is the strongest move among Fang Xuan's sword techniques.

"break!"

Sword energy swept across the land, first piercing the thunder spear.

The rain of swords, more like falling snow, was swept away by the soaring sword energy and vanished into nothingness.

As for the extremely sharp wind blades, they crumbled completely upon contact with this sword energy, like fragile tofu.

However, most of the sword energy that Fang Xuan unleashed was still intact, easily slicing through Wen Donglin's body.

But the sword energy did not stop for a moment, heading straight for the sky and slashing fiercely at the array shield above.

"Snap!"

The sword energy surged like a rainbow, directly breaking through the formation.

The array plate in front of Zhou Yan shattered on the spot, just like a fragile piece of porcelain.

"Wow!"

With the formation broken, Zhou Yan immediately suffered a backlash, spitting out a mouthful of blood and becoming extremely weak.

"How could this be? How could this be?"

Zhou Yan muttered to himself as if possessed, seemingly unable to believe that his carefully arranged formation had been broken so easily.

"thump!"

Then, two pieces of the corpse fell to the ground; they were Wen Donglin's.

His body has now been severed at the waist.

His face still showed signs of fear.

He never imagined this until his death.

Despite being a dignified half-step Divine Intent Realm cultivator who had even used an array to elevate his cultivation to the Divine Intent Realm, he was still killed by Fang Xuan with a single sword strike.

Moreover, the opponent was merely an ant at the Qi Gathering Realm.

In the past, he could easily crush such a person with a single kick.

Fang Xuan reached out and grabbed the Thunder Stone that Wen Donglin was holding.

"At least it's finally returned to its rightful owner."

Fang Xuan put the Thunder Stone into his storage ring, then turned to look at Zhou Yan and the others, a cold glint reappearing in his eyes.

"Ladies and gentlemen, it's your turn!"

Upon hearing this, Zhou Yan and the others' expressions changed drastically.

"Kid, you're too arrogant!"

Zhou Yan slowly stood up, not bothering to wipe the blood from the corner of his mouth, and reached out to take out a battle flag.

"Do you think I was unprepared?"

Zhou Yan grinned maliciously: "To me, killing you is as easy as turning my hand!"

After saying that, Zhou Yan spat out a mouthful of blood essence onto the battle flag.

"Buzzing!"

The banners waved, releasing a beam of light that shot into the sky.

"Blood essence forms the array, the earth serves as the foundation, a demon-imprisoning and killing array!"

Zhou Yan roared, and the array flag in his hand flew out and stuck into the ground.

"Boom!"

The earth trembled, and mud and rocks churned up, eventually coalescing into a stone figure ten zhang tall.

The stone giant was massive and had a ferocious appearance, exuding a chilling aura of rage.

He surprisingly possessed the cultivation level of a half-step divine being.

"Bang!"

As soon as the stone giant materialized, it threw a punch directly at Fang Xuan.

The violent power caused a fierce wind to howl throughout the entire Miasma Forest.

Fang Xuan transformed into a dragon-fish, easily dodging the stone giant's attack.

But an even more violent offensive followed, crashing down on Fang Xuan and sealing off all his escape routes.

"Whoosh!"

Fang Xuan rose into the air on his sword, his face somewhat pale.

After fighting for so long, he had very little Yuan energy left in his body.

Even after his cultivation level was improved, it was still on the verge of its limit.

However, Fang Xuan showed no fear whatsoever.

He stared coldly at the stone giant that was about to burst into the sky and charge towards him.

His cold gaze slowly swept over Zhou Yanming and the others.

His entire body radiated killing intent.

Fang Xuan raised his arm high and pressed it down hard.

"Return to Nothingness Sword Formation, Slash!"

The next moment, the Bagua diagram that should have disappeared reappeared above Fang Xuan's head.

A torrent of sword energy was released from the array diagram and roared toward Zhou Yan and the others.

"A single thought can create an array?"

Zhou Yan exclaimed in surprise, his face filled with shock.

Don't be fooled by how easily he set up the formation; he had actually been preparing for a long time and had even used formation plates and flags.

However, none of these arrangements were present in the formation that Fang Xuan had set up.

With just a wave of his hand, he set up a chilling sword formation.

Moreover, this sword formation was more powerful and terrifying than any other formation he had ever seen.

"Quickly, block them!"

Zhou Yan roared, and the stone giant immediately blocked his way, trying to stop the thousands of sword energies.

"Snap!"

One breath...

No, not even a moment later, this half-step divine realm stone giant was annihilated by the sword energy into dust and returned to the earth.

The torrent of sword energy, undiminished in its power, crashed down upon Zhou Yan and the others with overwhelming momentum.

"Get out of the way!"

Someone screamed and immediately scattered in all directions.

But no matter how fast they are, they can't outrun the sword energy.

In the blink of an eye, many martial artists from the Wen and Ming families were pierced through the body by sword energy and died on the spot.

"Pfft!"

Zhou Yan was pierced through the shoulder by the sword energy and coughed up blood.

He was severely injured and suffered a backlash, leaving him with no ability to escape.

As for Mingche, he fled towards the edge of the dense forest under the protection of several Ming family warriors.

"Are you able to leave?"

Fang Xuan gave a cold shout and pointed his finger at Mingche.

Mingche led his men to besiege him multiple times.

This time, he was going to completely kill Mingche!

A flaming longsword slowly emerged from the array, about to slash at Mingche.

"presumptuous!"

Just then, an angry and cold voice suddenly came from the horizon.

The next moment, a terrifying aura enveloped the entire Wanzhang Forest.

It was a giant hand of spiritual energy that descended from the sky and grabbed at Fang Xuan.

"A master of the Divine Intent Realm!"

Fang Xuan suddenly tilted his head back, his long hair dancing wildly and his clothes fluttering in the wind.

"cut!"

Fang Xuan formed hand seals, changed the direction of his flaming sword, and slashed at the giant spiritual hand in the sky.

"Boom!"

However, the power of the giant spiritual hand was too terrifying; with just a light grab, the flaming longsword was crushed.

"Pfft!"

As soon as the sword energy broke, Fang Xuan spat out a mouthful of blood, and his cultivation level of the eighth level of the Qi Gathering Realm dropped directly back to the third level of the Qi Gathering Realm.

Moreover, the vital energy within his body had completely disappeared.

Moreover, the Bagua array above his head dimmed and disappeared back into Fang Xuan's Qi Sea.

Fang Xuan felt extremely weak.

His body swayed precariously, and even standing on his sword was a struggle.

At this moment, a figure appeared high in the sky, his powerful spiritual energy enveloping the surroundings and causing the spiritual energy of heaven and earth to boil endlessly.

"Fang Xuan, we meet again!"

The newcomer was dressed in a long robe and had piercing eyes.

It was actually Elder Liu Ming of the Beast Taming Hall!

A terrifying being whose cultivation has reached the fifth level of the Divine Realm.

"Master!"

Upon seeing Liu Ming appear, Mingche was overjoyed, but then lowered his head in shame.

"I am deeply humbled that my master has had to personally intervene."

Upon hearing this, Liu Ming slowly shook his head: "This is not your fault. Fang Xuan is quite strong; even Xue Wushang was defeated by him."

"What?"

Mingche was terrified.

Xue Wushang is a genuine expert at the Divine Intent Realm.

His cultivation level is even higher than his father's.

I had heard long ago that the Blood Fiend Gang was destroyed by a mysterious powerhouse, including the gang leader, Xue Wushang, who died a bloody death, which has recently become a well-known event in the southwest region.

But Mingche never expected this.

The person who destroyed the Blood Fiend Gang and killed Xue Wushang was actually Fang Xuan!

Did he already have such skills back then?

"Does Master know him?"

Mingche was stunned again when he thought of his master's words.

"I've met him once."

Liu Ming's gaze was icy as he slowly said, "That time, I was still in his hands and suffered a minor loss."

Whenever Liu Ming thought about the events in Qingyang County, a surge of anger welled up inside him.

That was the first time he had failed in all these years.

He even suffered a severe injury as a result, almost leading to a fall from grace.

This is absolutely outrageous!

"hiss!"

Liu Ming's words made Ming Che gasp in shock.

What exactly is the origin of this Fang Xuan?

How could Master have suffered a loss?

"However, this time, I will not give him another chance."

Liu Ming stood with his hands behind his back, looking at Fang Xuan with a cold gaze.

"Boy, you're at your last gasp. Why don't you just surrender?"

Liu Ming said indifferently, "I can give you a quick death."

"It seems Elder Liu hasn't learned his lesson from last time."

Fang Xuan quickly circulated his cultivation technique to recover as much Yuan energy as possible.

"Or does Elder Liu think that I, Fang, can be manipulated by you at will?"

Upon hearing this, Liu Ming scoffed.

"A sharp-tongued brat."

Liu Ming slowly shook his head: "Very well, since you refuse to listen to reason and choose to suffer the consequences, then I will personally execute you!"

As soon as he finished speaking, Liu Ming raised his hand and gently pressed it against Fang Xuan.

A giant hand of spiritual energy, covering a hundred meters, reached out to grab Fang Xuan.

"die!"

This time, the giant hand of spiritual energy is even more terrifying than before.

The strength of a fifth-level Divine Intent Realm expert is far superior to that of Wen Donglin, who enhanced his strength using formations.

Seeing this, Mingche's face also showed a relaxed expression.

He was truly terrified of Fang Xuan.

He can't rest easy as long as Fang Xuan is alive.

Fortunately, with the master's personal intervention, Fang Xuan was certain to die.

"Kill me?"

Fang Xuan burst into loud laughter, his voice filled with arrogance.

"You don't deserve it!"

As he spoke, Fang Xuan suddenly raised his arm, revealing the crimson bracelet on his wrist.

Just as the giant hand of spiritual energy was about to grab Fang Xuan, a violent, cruel, and irritable crimson aura suddenly awakened within the crimson bracelet.

"Boom!"

This crimson aura collided directly with the giant spiritual hand.

A ripple of power spread out in mid-air.

A fierce wind swept through, and the mountains and forests collapsed.

Mingche and the others quickly covered their faces and backed away.

Once he regained his balance, Mingche looked up at the sky and his pupils suddenly contracted.

My body began to tremble uncontrollably.

because.

A colossal figure, dominating the heavens and earth and exuding a violent and malevolent aura, stood tall in the sky.

That was... a demon emperor!!!
