There's Something Wrong With This Account

Chapter 491: 491, [The World’s First]
 

The spiritual energy vortex had evaporated, and the clouds that threaded through the heavens also vanished without a trace under that “One Sword” strike, trailing in the turbulent wake.

Lu Xun had successfully made an enormous breakthrough, reaching the peak of his abilities.

Furthermore, he was relieved that his breakthrough occurred promptly.

Just a moment ago, the Demon Sect’s Mountain Protection Array developed a crack. Mao Nanbei, who had been silently watching up to this point, felt it was time for her to step in.

She hadn’t assisted Shen Yan because she wanted to be able to solve any unexpected issues that might arise.

“Although this old lady is only at the sixth level, a cat has nine lives, and I can afford to lose a few. I’m protecting Little Junior Brother no matter what!”

But as she charged towards the crack, a gentle force enveloped her. Then, a figure clad in a black robe quickly appeared before her, flicking his sword and sending the mighty Great Sacrificial Rite flying.

“Li… Little Junior Brother!” Mao Nanbei cried out in surprise.

Lu Xun turned and smiled, saying, “Fourth senior sister, stand behind me. It’s my turn to protect you.”

After using “One Sword,” all the power in Lu Xun’s body had been drained.

Even though his Five Elements Spiritual Power could be rapidly replenished based on the cycle of mutual promotion of the five elements, he would not recover in time under the current circumstances.

He resolutely opened his character panel, invested a billion experience points, and leveled up to 82.

As for that One Sword just now, it was a surprise attack. The Great Sacrificial Rite, caught completely off guard, had to withstand that sudden mighty sword strike and the injury was rather severe.

His HP bar began to fall, decreasing by almost a quarter.

The Great Sacrificial Rite slammed into a small hill outside the Demon Sect and even caused the mountaintop to collapse.

The Great Sacrificial Rite raised his right hand and took a look. There was a deep sword wound on his right arm, from which blood oozed non-stop. His bone was almost visible.

“What a domineering sword.” The Great Sacrificial Rite said in a deep voice.

As a ninth level member of the Foreign Race, the Great Sacrificial Rite had seen and experienced quite a few things.

Moreover, he practiced Body Refinement, making his physique incredibly robust. He never dreamt that he would one day be sent flying by a Sword Cultivator of the eighth realm, and even nearly lose his arm.

The crack at the Mountain Protection Array was repairing rapidly. The Great Sacrificial Rite would not make it in time and had to hurriedly activate a spare body to try and tear the crack apart.

Lu Xun, with his energy bar back to full, once again swung his “One Sword.”

The domineering sword aura directly clashed with the Supreme Lord’s avatar. Both of them retreated several meters before barely managing to steady themselves.

“Level 95, truly incredibly powerful,” Lu Xun thought to himself.

Thankfully, the crack was finally repaired. After leveling up once again, Lu Xun flew to Shen Yan’s side, asking, “Sect Master, are you alright?”

“Little Junior Uncle, I’m fine,” Shen Yan shook his head and replied.

Lu Xun had a look around. He saw fragments of a multitude of magical weapons scattered across the ground.

The Magical Weapons atop the Demon Sect’s Burial Mountain were now suspended in the air, forming part of the Mountain Protection Array.

Some Magical Weapons had been completely destroyed, while some were still holding up.

He saw that dice that had left a deep impression on him and Gongshu Pan’s shattered Black Flag…

Lu Xun’s face darkened.

Since coming to this world, this was the first time he harbored such a strong desire to kill.

Today, regardless of the cost, the Great Sacrificial Rite must die!

Lu Xun looked up to the sky. Elder Gui was still refining the Xuan Turtle’s shell, his state didn’t seem good. The already skinny and frail elder now seemed even weaker.

“The Sword Qi is Near” was still in a deadlock with the Supreme Lord’s avatar, making no progress.

However, a sword image that stretched from the heavens to the earth brought to Lu Xun a boundless shock.

“Eldest senior brother… Is it finally time for you to come out?” Lu Xun thought to himself.

Outside of the Demon Sect’s Mountain Protection Array, the Great Sacrificial Rite tightly clenched his right fist, and a black stream of energy wrapped around his right arm, halting the flow of blood.

He lifted his head to look at the sky, directing his gaze towards Elder Gui. A smile appeared on his face.

“Lu Xun, I am interested to see if you choose to remain inside the Demon Sect’s Mountain Protection Array or save the Heaven-mending Xuan Turtle!” After letting out a loud cry, the Great Sacrificial Rite’s figure vanished and he rushed towards Elder Gui beneath the firmament.

He had already made up his mind. Even if he couldn’t destroy the Eastern Demon Sect, killing Lu Xun of the Demon Sect would mean that this trip wasn’t in vain!

The two sword strikes Lu Xun had just launched, had shocked him greatly.

Lu Xun’s growth rate was too rapid, and the power he unleashed was also astonishingly mighty.

He would undoubtedly be the Foreign Race’s greatest hidden threat in the future!

Therefore, not only did the Great Sacrificial Rite himself rise into the sky, but he also brought along the two clones of the Supreme Lord.

How could Lu Xun not notice the intentions of the Great Sacrificial Rite? His face serious, he left the Mountain Protection Array and flew towards the dome of the sky.

Logically, with his eighth-level cultivation base, it’s impossible for him to fly this high.

But don’t forget, Lu Xun’s physicality is something an ordinary cultivator can’t match.

After improving his cultivation, and gaining an additional point in Swordsmanship Aptitude, Lu Xun’s physical strength has finally reached the standard of a lower-ranked Immortal Sword.

Therefore, this is not a problem for him at all.

The real challenge at hand was that he and “The Sword Qi is Near” would face off against four enemies of over level 90.

Lu Xun had no certainty of winning in his heart. Even relying on the “One Sword”, he couldn’t possibly win.

His only trump card now is the “Broken Sword Technique” that he has never used before.

The “Broken Sword Technique” is an upgraded version of the “One Sword”. The latter only exhausts all your internal power, the former also demands the price of one’s life – use it three times and death is inevitable!

Moreover, each use of the sword would result in irreversible damage, which might not necessarily be recoverable through the “Sword Cultivating Technique”, and would require a long time to recover.

The Great Sacrificial Rite, grinning ferociously, flew towards Lu Xun, saying, “You are doomed today!”

Three clones of the Supreme Lord closely followed after him, and terrifying pressure surged over.

Just then, a breeze suddenly blew past.

A figure, also in a black robe, suddenly appeared beside Lu Xun.

This man with a pair of sword-shaped eyebrows raised his right hand, his slender fingers lightly grasping, easily catching the hilt of “The Sword Qi is Near”.

The next moment, he and “The Sword Qi is Near” vanished in an instant, reappearing behind the three clones.

With a casual swing of his sword, the three clones were sent flying.

Lu Xun watched in disbelief, the health bars of the three clones were rapidly decreasing. This seemingly casual swing had reduced their health by at least one-third!

An unmatched Sword Cultivator, a supreme sword.

When the master was still around, he was the world’s foremost Sword Cultivator.

Because that master excelled in all methods, except for swordsmanship.

Now that master has left the Heavenly Dust Continent, among all the Cultivators on the Heavenly Dust Continent, Yan Li is invincible.

Truly, genuinely invincible!

“Master!” Shen Yan shouted from within the Demon Sect’s Mountain Protection Array.

Mao Nanbei widened his eyes, shouting loudly, “Senior Brother!”

“Senior Brother!” Even Lu Xun couldn’t help but exclaim in surprise.

“Little Junior Brother, you’ve done well.” Yan Li said with a light laugh, as if he wasn’t taking the four men before him seriously.

Merely four ninth-level Foreign Race beings, it was nothing more than a few more sword swings.

Lu Xun stared at this carefree man from afar, curiously casting a “Detection”.

A small part of the basic information soon popped up before his eyes.

[Name: Yan Li.]

[Character Level: 99.]
