Chapter 171: The Killer—Daoist Wuji!

Walking through the Law Secret Realm, you headed straight for that departing pillar of light.

Along the way, signs of people were sparse. You did not see any other cultivators. Even the Wilderness Clan cultivators, normally so arrogant and domineering, were nowhere to be found.

Just when you thought the Secret Realm journey was about to end, you arrived beneath the light pillar and froze.

You saw that beneath the light pillar, at the entrance leading out of the Secret Realm, over a hundred Wilderness Clan cultivators were stationed!

You hid in the shadows and observed for a while. You did not find any Fusion realm Wilderness Clan cultivators, so your figure emerged.

"It's him!" The moment you appeared, a Wilderness Clan cultivator recognized you.

"Oh no, retreat!!!"

"It's over, it's over! How is this harbinger of death still alive?"

"He's still alive, then boss, he…"

You walked forward, one step at a time. With every step, the aura around you grew stronger by a measure.

After recognizing you, the Wilderness Clan cultivators fled in all directions without any hesitation, entirely without a shred of intent to block you.

"I said, halt!" Behind you, the Law of Heaven and Image of Earth unfurled, and a heavenly might poured from your mouth.

The Wilderness Clan cultivators who had been fleeing were startled stiff by your shout, rooted in place, unable to move.

"KNEEL!!!"

Over a hundred Wilderness Clan cultivators immediately fell to their knees, trembling all over, faces pale, sweat dripping down drop by drop.

You arrived at the Secret Realm exit, standing in the air, looking down upon the Wilderness Clan cultivators kneeling before you, your face showing satisfaction.

"Today, I grant you all the crime of death!"

Behind you, over ten thousand spirit swords flew out, instantly merging into one, transforming into the Returning Unity Sword.

The Returning Unity Sword flew out, and in an instant, dozens of Wilderness Clan cultivators died where they stood!

"No, I don't want to die!"

"Save me, won't someone save me!"

"Damn legs, run!"

Faced with the arrival of death, even Wilderness Clan cultivators could not face it calmly. Their wails and cries soared to the heavens, exceedingly tragic.

The Returning Unity Sword returned. Over a hundred Wilderness Clan cultivators' heads fell to the ground, dead.

You waved both hands, and over a hundred Wilderness Clan cultivator heads shot into the air, arriving at your side.

A hundred heads fell, forming a Jingguan!

On their faces, expressions of despair were frozen forever. You pressed two fingers together, and threads of the Power of Law surged.

"The killer, Human Clan cultivator————Daoist Wuji!"

Words condensed from the Power of Law were branded before the Jingguan forged from heads, a warning to the world!

"I brush my body and depart, hiding my merit and name!" After leaving a single declaration, you turned and entered the passage, leaving the Secret Realm.

"Someone's finally come out!"

"Hm, it's actually an Elder of my Heavenly Blade Sect."

The moment you left the Secret Realm, voices of astonishment rose all around. You surveyed your surroundings and finally located the Heavenly Blade Sect's territory.

"Elder Ye, how did it go?"

"A lucky breakthrough." You smiled and said casually. Within the sect's camp, you did not see the First Elder or the Vice Sect Master.

"Haha, that's wonderful!" A sect Elder on fairly good terms with you said joyfully.

"By the way, where is everyone else? How come you're the only one who came out?"

"They… are all dead!" You put on a tragic expression.

"What???"

"It's over, it's over!"

Of the over a thousand Human Clan cultivators, slaughtered by the Wilderness Clan cultivators down to the last, fewer than fifty remained. Apart from you and Xiao Fan, all the Heavenly Blade Sect cultivators had died.

You had no mood to linger here. After fixing your bearings on the sect's direction, you turned and left.

With your current cultivation, traveling at full speed for a day, you finally arrived at the Heavenly Blade Sect.

The moment you returned to the sect, you felt a murderous atmosphere pervading the entire sect.

What's going on? Could it be that the Sect Master's fall is within these few days? you guessed.

"You're back?" The First Elder appeared, his expression not looking good.

"Return-to-Void realm great perfection?" After many years, you finally saw the First Elder's cultivation clearly. He was only a small stage above you.

"What's the situation in the sect?" You asked calmly. Having just returned, you wanted to first understand the situation within the sect to judge whether you should still remain here.

"The Sect Master doesn't have long. It's a matter of these few days." The First Elder spoke in a low voice.

"Then us?"

"We've just been waiting for you to return, so we can launch the next step of the plan!" The First Elder said this.

"By the way, why have only you returned? Where is everyone else?"

"Dead." Your tone was flat, utterly unconcerned.

"What?!!" The First Elder suddenly grew furious, interrogating in a cold, stern voice.

"What did you do inside the Secret Realm!"

Seeing the First Elder's attitude, you no longer felt like acting. You extended your pinky and dug at your ear, asking, "What did you say? I didn't catch that. How about you say it again?"

"I said…" Before the First Elder could finish, you directly slapped him on the shoulder.

The First Elder instantly felt as if struck by lightning and actually fell to his knees before you, crying out in shock, "Your cultivation, how could it possibly?!!"

You reached out and patted the First Elder's somewhat aged face, threatening, "Old bastard, I've put up with you for a long time!"

"Making me work every day, you really took me for a beast of burden!"

Feeling the force emanating from you, the First Elder said bitterly, "Elder Ye… oh no, Fellow Daoist Ye, I was wrong. I truly know I was wrong."

"You don't know you were wrong. You know you're really about to die!"

The First Elder knelt on the ground, clutching one of your thighs with both hands, and began to wail.

The next second, a dagger appeared in the First Elder's hand, and with a stab, it plunged straight into your back.

"Die!!!" The First Elder's face was hideous. The cultivation of a Return-to-Void realm great perfection erupted, and the power of an Earth-rank high-grade artifact was released.

Ding!!!

An Earth-rank high-grade artifact, a full-force strike from a Return-to-Void realm great perfection, had actually not caused you any harm whatsoever!

"You still want to kill me?"

"Fuck you!"

You grabbed the First Elder's hair and began beating that aged face.

One punch down, all his teeth fell out, blood spilling from his mouth.

Two punches down, his skull cracked, gravely wounded.

Three punches down, his life hung by a thread, as if he could die at any moment.

You sat down in the First Elder's seat, picked up the teacup beside you, and waited while drinking.

Half an hour later, the First Elder groggily woke. The first thing he saw upon opening his eyes was you, and he immediately fainted again.

"Three breaths. If you don't wake, death!"
