Flying through the skies, the sword whistled, covering a thousand miles in an instant!
The Sect Leader of Qingyang Sword Sect, Jiang Qitian, led the elite practitioners of the sect directly to Ghost Mist Gorge.
Xiao Yang couldn’t believe Jiang Qitian arrived so quickly.
He had thought that after receiving the news of everyone getting caught in Ghost Mist Gorge, Jiang Qitian wouldn’t show up until at least dawn.
The sound of breaking the air echoed from above as dazzling sword lights cut through the sky and landed directly over Ghost Mist Gorge.
The air above Ghost Mist Gorge was suddenly filled with overwhelming sword qi, illuminating the dark world.
Xiao Yang hid in the shadows, looking up at the sky.
At the front stood a figure stepping on a flying sword, draped in a long white robe, eyes blazing like torches. It was none other than Jiang Qitian, the leader of Qingyang Sword Sect.
He was also Xiao Yang’s master.
In his hand, he held an ancient long sword, faint spiritual light shimmering from its blade, an extremely subtle sword intent seeping from its scabbard.
Following Jiang Qitian were the most elite experts of the sect, all floating above on flying swords.
This group of sword cultivators gathered together, their sword qi soaring to the heavens, making the surrounding air feel thick, as if the world itself was changing colors.
Meanwhile, Qin Fei in the cave was feeling quite frustrated.
He never expected Jiang Qitian to arrive so quickly.
They hadn’t even captured Ling Daochen yet.
Without that, they couldn’t lead Jiang Qitian and his crew into the Twelve Heavenly Demonic Extermination Formation and catch them all in one swoop.
Truly, man plans, but heaven laughs.
At this moment, Jiang Qitian stood before the elite of Qingyang Sword Sect.
His gaze flickered like lightning, scanning below.
“That’s Elder Ling…”
Elder Fang Tang gasped.
“The Twelve Heavenly Demonic Extermination Formation… How is that possible…”
Elder Qinglian was shocked.
Meanwhile, within the demonic formation, Li Gaitian directly crushed Ling Daochen’s flying sword with one hand and grabbed Ling Daochen by the neck, lifting him off the ground.
Ling Daochen was coughing up blood.
Before Li Gaitian, he felt as insignificant as an ant.
Such is the might of a Half Saint.
Before this, Xiao Yang had given this guy an unexpected surprise, making him suffer a setback.
Also, despite the full power punch of the Taiyin Divine Fist, it seemed like it hadn’t harmed this guy at all.
Xiao Yang understood the immense power of a Half Saint.
He had already cultivated to the Sacred Martial Realm in his previous life.
The might of a Half Saint was definitely more than what a Divine Martial Realm expert could withstand.
“Jiang Qitian, hand over the Qingyang Sword, or I’ll kill him, along with all the disciples of Qingyang Sword Sect in the cave.”
Li Gaitian, wearing a bronze mask, boasted arrogantly.
“Master, don’t worry about us! Quickly use the Qingyang Sword to kill these demon remnants!” Ling Daochen roared angrily.
Xiao Yang, concealed in the shadows, wanted to see what choice his seemingly righteous master would make.
In his previous life, Jiang Qitian had caused him a great misfortune.
Had it not been for Jiang Qitian giving him hope, continuously dangling it in front of him, he wouldn’t have met such a tragic end at the hands of Qin Fei.
Everyone was watching Jiang Qitian.
“Demon remnants should be exterminated!”
Jiang Qitian firmly gripped the hilt of the Qingyang Sword.
A terrifying wave of sword qi instantly erupted from the Qingyang Sword in his hand.
The Qingyang Sword is the treasure of Qingyang Sword Sect, and it’s not something that can just be used whenever.
Even for Jiang Qitian, he could only use the Qingyang Sword two or three times in a year.
Using the Qingyang Sword requires a massive amount of energy.
Even Jiang Qitian dared not overuse it.
Using it recklessly could drain him of all his cultivation; at worst, he could die.
Earlier, Jiang Qitian had already used the Qingyang Sword once in the Earth Veins of Yuanlong City.
“Then come and kill us, you demon!”
Ming He’s figure appeared within the demonic formation.
Yin Yue remained in the cave.
Now that Jiang Qitian arrived so quickly, their plans had fallen apart.
Ming He’s subordinates appeared behind him.
“Master, don’t worry about us! Just kill them!” Ling Daochen shouted fiercely.
Xiao Yang felt somewhat conflicted watching this scene.
Ling Daochen’s disregard for death impressed him.
However, in his past life, Ling Daochen ultimately chose Qin Fei.
And later, Qin Fei used the blood of countless cultivators from the Northern Borders to perform blood sacrifices to the Demonic Abyss seal, releasing the sealed demons, leading to a calamity throughout the Northern Borders and Yuanwu Continent.
Ling Daochen was also an accomplice.
“Master…”
Everyone looked at Jiang Qitian, waiting for his decision.
Xiao Yang, still hidden, watched Jiang Qitian in the sky.
“Jiang Qitian, as long as you hand over the Qingyang Sword and cripple your own cultivation, I will let these people go.”
Li Gaitian held Ling Daochen with one hand, coldly looking at Jiang Qitian above.
What’s a sect leader worth, now that he had him in check?
“Jiang Qitian, you wouldn’t want your daughter to die right in front of you, would you?”
Ming He looked triumphantly at Jiang Qitian in the sky.
“You despicable scoundrels!”
Jiang Qitian glared fiercely at Ming He, wishing he could slice this demon remnants into thousands of pieces.
How dare they lay their hands on his daughter!
This was touching his reverse scale.
“Kill!”
Grinding his teeth, Jiang Qitian made his decision.
In the next moment, he unsheathed the Qingyang Sword.
A brilliant sword light erupted suddenly, blinding everyone.
Then, an indestructible sword light descended from the sky, cleaving directly into the demonic formation below, filled with surging demon qi.
Wherever the sword light passed, it was unstoppable and unbreakable, dissipating endless demon qi, and the entire Twelve Heavenly Demonic Extermination Formation was actually split in half.
Countless formation patterns vanished.
The twelve Demon Flags broke in an instant.
The demonic formation collapsed, and the twelve demonic shadows struggled to vanish into the void.
Such a terrifying demonic formation was annihilated by Jiang Qitian with just one sword strike.
Li Gaitian let out a scream and staggered back.
He grabbed Ling Daochen, and in a swift motion, his right arm carrying Ling Daochen was severed at the shoulder, falling to the ground.
Jiang Qitian’s earth-shattering sword did not only break the Twelve Heavenly Demonic Extermination Formation but also directly chopped off Li Gaitian’s right arm.
Li Gaitian picked up his severed limb and shot into the sky, making a hasty escape.
At this moment, the sword qi surged forth, dispersing all the demon qi.
Everyone was stunned by the power of this single sword.
No one had anticipated the Qingyang Sword’s strength reached such a terrifying level.
Who could withstand this sword?
Even a true Holy Martial Realm master would probably avoid its sharpness.
This was the confidence of Qingyang Sword Sect.
Even without a Holy Martial Realm Sword Saint stationed, no power in the Northern Borders dared underestimate Qingyang Sword Sect.
Yet Xiao Yang in the shadows didn’t feel the slightest shock.
He had already witnessed the might of the Qingyang Sword in his past life.
But everyone else was completely dumbfounded.
“Run!”
Ming He and Yin Yue were the first to escape.
Yet Jiang Qitian did not strike again.
“Master…”
Everyone exclaimed.
Jiang Qitian’s hair had quickly turned white.
In an instant, his head was completely white.
“It’s fine!”
Jiang Qitian had already sheathed the sword.
The Qingyang Sword in his hand seemed as if it had never been drawn at all.
