Sword Emperor

0A huge shockwave spread out in all directions. Although Sun Bing's sword formation was very powerful and had a strong defense, there was no way for him to defend against such a huge force. He could only hold on for a few seconds before it was completely broken.    

    

The seven longsword flew in all directions and disappeared without a trace in an instant. The astral wind that appeared from the explosion also spread out in all directions, bringing up a lot of dust and scorching heat.    

    

Due to the close distance between them, Sun Bing had suffered a lot of attacks. He could clearly sense that the force of the explosion was a deadly strike of the Fifth Level of the Life and Death Stage.    

    

Even though Sun Bing was quite far away and was using layers of defense to defend himself, there was still a trace of blood at the corner of his mouth. Obviously, he had suffered some injuries.    

    

When all the residual waves had completely dissipated, the scene in front of them was a complete mess. The most striking thing was that a bottomless pit had appeared on the ground.    

    

The surrounding several dozen kilometers of land had even been greatly affected because of this. Terrifying cracks appeared one after another, revealing the terrifying traces left behind by the great battle that had occurred earlier.    

    

In the past, this place was filled with countless trees and flowers, but now, it had disappeared without a trace. Furthermore, one could feel that many weak Demonic Beast and birds were fleeing frantically from this place.    

    

"We really can't underestimate any Life and Death Stage Cultivator. This shouldn't be an ordinary self-explosion. It's very likely to be some secret inheritance of some cultivation techniques."    

    

After spitting out a mouthful of blood, Sun Bing couldn't help but speak slowly. Based on his understanding of the technique, he couldn't find out anything about it. There must be a reason why he was able to self-detonate.    

    

At this moment, with a thought, the seven flying swords that had exploded earlier flew over from afar. They flew up and down in the air, and even the connection between them and Sun Bing was intermittent.    

    

After a long time, they returned to Sun Bing's hand. However, when he saw the sharp sword in his hand, a rare trace of pain appeared in his eyes.    

    

Because the seven flying swords that were shining with a sharp and cold light had disappeared without a trace. Now, the surface of the swords was covered with cracks. It was obvious that they had suffered a serious injury.    

    

Even the sword spirit within the longsword was incomparably weak at this moment. After such a long period of nurturing, some of the longsword had almost reached the half-step King Artifact realm. Now, it was completely ruined and its quality had dropped.    

    

This could be considered a huge loss. Even Sun Bing did not have the confidence to say that he could completely repair it. It was also a good thing that he had expended such a huge amount of wealth. In the end, he had killed Elder Zhang.    

    

Sun Bing let out a deep sigh. After that, he consumed a half-step holy medicine to make up for all the damage and exhaustion he had suffered in the previous battle. After confirming that there were no other dangers or mistakes in the surroundings, he returned to his original position.    

    

From afar, one could see that Dugu Bai was able to suppress three Life and Death Stage warriors by herself. Her heavy sword soared through the sky, causing the void in front of her to tremble slightly. One could only see the heavy sword pressing down on them.    

    

A strong Sword Force covered her body. Her opponent couldn't even resist it. She could only watch helplessly as the sword was about to strike her body. In the end, she spat out a mouthful of blood and lost all her combat strength.    

    

Besides, the three of them were at a disadvantage, let alone the two of them. Plus, they had also noticed that Sun Bing had returned. Their hearts were filled with fear, and they didn't know how to deal with him. In a short period of time, the other two had fallen as well.    

    

Dugu Bai did not show any mercy when faced with some of the traitors in the Humans. Under the heavy sword, they had already turned into ashes.    

    

Even after obtaining such a result, Dugu Bai didn't have any pride in her heart. Instead, she took a deep look at Sun Bing who was walking forward and let out a long sigh.    

    

After all, comparing oneself to others was really infuriating. She had worked so hard to fight three people here, and she still needed to exert all of her strength. On the other side, Sun Bing's opponents were all Fourth Grade of the Life and Death Stage warriors.    

    

Of course, this was also what Dugu Bai had imagined. After all, if he were to swap places with Sun Bing, he would surely be killed in a single strike.    

    

Sun Bing didn't know what Dugu Bai was thinking. When he saw that her opponent had already finished the battle, he immediately walked forward and said.    

    

"Elder Zhang has already self-detonated. I believe everyone within ten thousand miles could sense the movement just now. We have to leave as soon as possible."    

    

Dugu Bai slowly nodded her head. At this moment, he finally understood what that huge commotion meant. So naturally, without any hesitation, he turned around and left with Sun Bing.    

    

In the next few days, because they were worried that there would be other pursuers, the two of them moved even faster. They travelled day and night, and their final destination was the Inverse River Sect.    

    

However, it seemed like the news of Elder Zhang's death hadn't leaked out yet, so they weren't in any danger. In fact, it could even be said that they were very safe. After a full five days, they finally arrived at the legendary Heavenspan River.    

    

At this moment, the one placed in front of the two of them was... Standing there, it was impossible to see what was in front of them. On the opposite bank, the river was surging. Although it looked very calm, there seemed to be a lot of killing intent hidden inside.    

    

After that, Dugu Bai couldn't help but introduce, "Brother Sun, this river is called the Heavenspan River. It is said that it spanned across the entire Heavenly Province. No one knows how deep it is. Rumor has it that there are Life and Death Stage cultivators who have dived for ten miles without finding the bottom of the river. In the end, they even died there, without any signs of life.    

    

On the opposite side of this river was the Inverse River Sect. The two banks are thousands of miles away from each other, but if they cross the river, it will be very troublesome.    

    

This was because the Heavenspan River water was different from ordinary water. It was a weak water, and one must know that it was three thousand meters deep. Goose feathers cannot float, and the reeds will sink to the bottom. Even cultivators like us are unable to fly."    

    

After listening to the introduction, Sun Bing's eyes were filled with amazement. He had never thought that there would be such a strange and dangerous place in this world. It was beyond his expectation.    

    

Under his suspicion, Sun Bing even picked up a rock from the ground and threw it into the river. With Sun Bing's current strength and the Genuine Essence, it was normal for him to throw a rock dozens of miles away.    

    

However, at this moment, there was a complete change. When the rock reached the surface of the Heavenspan River, it fell directly into the river. There was only a 'dong dong' sound, and there was no more news.    

    

At this moment, Sun Bing finally managed to believe what he had just said. He gasped and turned his head to look at Dugu Bai, his eyes filled with questions.    

    

"Haha, but you don't have to worry about me, brother Sun. I have already contacted Song Que earlier. I think he has already arrived here. We just need to wait for a moment."    

    

Dugu Bai's face was full of relief. After going through so many trials and tribulations, she had finally reached her destination.    

    

As soon as she finished speaking, Sun Bing heard a sound beside his ear. When he turned his head, he was surprised to see a ship slowly approaching from afar, even though it was so far away. What? Sun Bing was shocked.    

    

This was because this ship was three thousand feet long, and it was carved with fine jade. The inscriptions were exquisite, and there were even countless formations arranged on it. Not only did it look extremely luxurious, but it was also very safe. Even a newly advanced Life and Death Stage warrior couldn't break through this ship.    

    

The speed of the other party was also very fast. Before long, they had arrived in front of Sun Bing. Then, a hearty laughter rang out in his ears, "Haha! Brother Dugu, brother Sun, I have been waiting for you for a long time. I didn't expect that you would only come now."    

    

Such words sounded familiar. Sun Bing raised his head and saw Song Que's familiar face. Although it had been half a year, there was no change in Song Que's appearance. However, Sun Bing could clearly sense that Song Que's Qi was several times stronger than before.    

    

Thick killing intent spread to the surroundings. It seemed like Song Que was immersed in the blood-red light. Any ordinary person who looked at him would have a heart devil.    

    

Obviously, during this period of time, his opponent had successfully broken through to the Life and Death Stage, and his comprehension of the Profound Meaning of Slaughter had become deeper. All of these were the insights Song Que had gained regarding the Profound Meaning of Slaughter.
