Chapter 1270: Chapter 1270 – Sword Splitting the Heavens and Earth

Within the void, a middle-aged and elegant man appeared . He carried a qin case . As he was striding forward, the qin’s melody continuously played .

It was the Lofty Sovereign, Zhang Buxu .

When the qin melody resounded, Yan Zhaoge and the others immediately frowned .

When facing the threats of the Pill Hall hall spirit and the White Deer Demon, everyone was allied, and all of them fought together .

However, now that the Pill Hall’s hall spirit wasn’t able to do anything, and the Lofty Sovereign – Zhang Buxu had appeared; everyone might not be allies anymore .

Fight together first, fight against each other later . The situation was just so subtle .

No matter if it was Yan Zhaoge or Zhang Buxu, they wouldn’t hesitate to change their status from friends to foes .

Even the Prime Clear martial arts practitioners like Long Xueji and Yu Ye secretly frowned when they saw Zhang Buxu advancing .

Seeing the formation erected within the void, and the pill qi released by the Pill Hall’s hall spirit being oppressed, Zhang Buxu had surprises written on his face .

“I have seen Little Friend Yan’s portrait before . Now, we have finally met each other . Meeting you in person is definitely better than hearing your rumors . ”

Lofty Sovereign’s gaze fell upon the center of the formation . It was obvious that the director of the formation was Yan Zhaoge, “Fallen Deity, you live up to your name . ”

Yan Zhaoge answered in a deep tone, “Lofty Sovereign, you praise me too much . We were just lucky that we succeeded . Before this, even I was very nervous . ”

“Little Friend Yan doesn’t need to speak so much nonsense to delay the time . ” Lofty Sovereign laughed, “Usually, it would be embarrassing for such an old man like me to snatch the younger generation’s fortune, especially when I have to take advantage of you all and steal it away from you . ”

“However, everyone here understands the value Pill Hall brings . I can only be thick-skinned just this once . ”

Zhang Buxu looked around . He felt the tremble of the universe within the Pill Hall, as well as the heat that was continuously rising . He let out a sigh, “That must be Suo Mingzhang . I never expected him to interfere in this matter . Now, I’ll have to thank that old white deer . Otherwise, I wouldn’t stand a chance . ”

He strided forward towards Yan Zhaoge and the others who were within the formation .

The Pill Hall hall spirit was currently being oppressed . Even if the formation were to dissipate, hall spirit – Awakened Sky wouldn’t be able to recover that quickly .

With Zhang Buxu’s cultivation and strength, it was enough to obtain the pill qi .

Similarly, his cultivation and his strength allowed him to ignore Yan Zhaoge and others .

Tranquil Profound Immortal, undisturbed by mortal affairs .

Among everyone here, the only person that had pushed open the Immortal Door and had achieved a True Immortal form was Long Xueji . Currently, he was fighting against Chen Qianhua .

Chen Qianhua’s eyes brightened when he saw Zhang Buxu’s actions .

Without having any interactions with Zhang Buxu, Chen Qianhua had already held off Long Xueji, which made him unable to escape for the meantime .

He didn’t care whose hands the Pill Hall falled to . However, he was very willing to make it difficult for Yan Zhaoge and the group .

Other than Long Xueji, everyone here would be restricted no matter who was the one facing Zhang Buxu; the challenger wouldn’t be able to do anything .

If the Mars Halberd was a defence type Immortal Artifact, Yan Zhaoge might have a slight chance of defending against Zhang Buxu after equipping the Mars Halberd .

However, he was an artifact used for killing . Facing the Lofty Sovereign, he would remain useless .

As for this formation, it was used specifically for the hall spirit . It had no uses at all towards experts like the Lofty Sovereign or the White Deer Demon .

Lofty Sovereign – Zhang Buxu’s movements were very light, and the qi melody followed after him .

However, the light beams of the formation that Yan Zhaoge and the others were maintaining started trembling non-stop .

Within the formation, with Yan Zhaoge as the lead, everyone was feeling a huge amount of pressure .

Although the pressure wasn’t as huge as the one brought upon by the hall spirit – Awakened Sky, it wasn’t one which Yan Zhaoge was able to withstand .

Such a melodious and graceful tone . And yet, when Yan Zhaoge heard it, it was shrill noise which he had never heard of before . He felt as if his eardrums were going to burst .

Not only was his blood boiling, his bones also seemed to be cracking . Even his soul couldn’t bear the tremble, and wanted to burst from within .

“I would have to gamble . ” Yan Zhaoge forcefully calmed himself down, and looked at Nie Jingshen .

Nie Jingshen nodded slightly, “Our luck is quite good . ”

Just as he finished speaking, a sound resounded from the faraway void .

Ringing of the sword!

The sudden ringing of the sword seemed like a sharp blade . It engulfed the qin melody which filled the universe, and cut it from the middle . Only a few echoes were left, and the melody could continue no more .

Following the ringing sword sound, a majestic sword-light instantly appeared in front of Zhang Buxu .

Zhang Buxu’s expression became serious . He opened the qin case behind him, and sword-lights were shooting outwards . They went up against the sword-light that was attacking him .

After the two sides clashed, the sword-lights dissipated, and Zhang Buxu halted .

In the faraway void, a straight sword-light seemed to cut the cosmos into half .

The sword-light was like a path . It extended from a faraway place to where they were at .

On the path, there was a silhouette that was advancing forward . The speed wasn’t slow or fast, and yet it instantly arrived in front of everyone .

Nie Jingshen was the first to give his greetings, “Disciple Nie Jingshen greets master . ”

Yan Zhaoge smiled and said, “Yan Zhaoge greets senior apprentice-uncle Yue . ”

Yan Di also said, “Senior apprentice-brother Yue . ”

He was a middle-aged man with a tall crown and vintage clothing . He looked like he was in his forties . He was calm without any expression, and his gaze was sharp .

He seemed like a sword that split the heavens . While he didn’t show off any of his aura and just stood still, he seemed like a majestic mountain tall enough to reach the skies . He definitely attracted the admiration of many others .

The one that came was one of the three sovereigns of the World beyond Worlds . He was the master of Kunlun Mountain’s Northern High Peak’s Jade Capital Crag .

Sword Sovereign, Yue Zhenbei!

He was the New Nine Luminaries of Kunlun, the disciple of the Exalted Gold Luminary – Yan Xintang . With the identity of a junior, he was classified as the Three Sovereigns of World beyond Worlds together with Exalted Earth Luminary – Jiang Shen and Exalted Concealed Luminary – Yang Ce .

Within the World beyond Worlds and the Roving Jade Heavens, he was the youngest Profound Immortal expert among his peers within the Three Clear Lineage’s disciple .

Previously, he had always been at the outskirts void, and had never returned to the World beyond Worlds .

Yan Zhaoge never expected his first time meeting senior apprentice-uncle Yue would be in this Pill Hall .

Other than the Exalted Fire – Suo Mingzhang, Yan Zhaoge noticed that there were some other people who had entered the Pill Hall as well . Yan Zhaoge had guessed that Yue Zhenbei was among them, but couldn’t justify his guess .

Which was why he said he had to gamble .

Just like what Nie Jingshen had said, Yan Zhaoge and the others’ luck wasn’t bad .

Yue Zhenbei’s expression was serious . He only nodded slightly towards Yan Zhaoge and the others as a form of courtesy, and his gaze shifted towards Zhang Buxu .

“Yue Zhenbei… Yan Xintang’s disciple . ” Zhang Buxu was also looking at Yue Zhenbei, “Junior Apprentice-brother Kong perished by your sword, right? I’m not a filial person, and always made my master mad . Luckily, junior apprentice-brother Kong was there to replace my filiality . And yet, he was killed by you . ”

A jade-decorated qin appeared on his palm, “Let me witness how much of Yan Xintang’s teachings have you managed to inherit . ”

The qin melody resounded again . Green, red, black and white coloured sword-lights filled the sky, and intersected with each other . They seemed to have nurtured boundless profound phenomena, yet also seemed to contain an extremely horrifying destructive energy . The sword-lights all filled the sky, and slashed towards Yue Zhenbei .

Yue Zhenbei’s expression was calm, “You’re not the Profound Sovereign . ”

As he finished talking, a pure sword-light rose again, and pierced through the cosmos .
