The figures of the Saints moved, instantly surrounding Yang Yan.
The Profound Qi they released completely locked down this area.
The Saintly Might was vast and continuously pressed toward Yang Yan.
"Be careful of the Sword Dao Emperor's Dao Essence he possesses," a stalwart Saint said.
"Don't worry, we've been keeping an eye on him.
As long as he makes any move, we will immediately kill him!" another Saint said without hesitation.
They kept a close watch on Yang Yan, ready to strike and deliver a lethal blow if he made the slightest move.
A Saint radiating sword light stood in the air and spoke to Yang Yan.
"Yang Yan, surrender the Sword Dao Emperor's legacy, then kill yourself.
We can at least leave you with an intact corpse; otherwise, you will die without one today!" he said coldly.
The reason they hadn't immediately struck down Yang Yan.
Was due to Yang Yan possessing the Sword Dao Emperor's legacy!
A Great Emperor's legacy could create a massive sect force.
No Saint present didn't want it!
Moreover, if they comprehended a Great Emperor's legacy, they would surely benefit.
It might even advance their realm further!
Especially the Saints who cultivated the Sword Dao!
If they could comprehend the Sword Dao Emperor's legacy, no, even if they only learned One Sword Separates Life!
Their realms would progress by leaps and bounds, stepping into the realm of Saint King or Sovereign!
"Yang Yan, don't even think about putting up a desperate fight; you have no chance!" The Saint radiating sword light followed up.
They knew Yang Yan posed a threat to them, but that didn't stop them from refraining from killing Yang Yan immediately.
Instead, they first pressured Yang Yan to hand over the Sword Dao Emperor's legacy.
After all, the Sword Dao Emperor's legacy was too important to them!
Yang Yan ignored the suppression of the Saintly Might, his eyes swept over the Saints before him, and he laughed.
"You want the Sword Dao Emperor's legacy?"
He agreed, but would Xingye agree?
"Indeed, hand it over!"
Yang Yan gently shook his head.
"I advise you to get lost quickly, or you'll face calamity!"
Calamity?
The Saints wouldn't believe Yang Yan's talk of calamity.
"Yang Yan, we know you still have tricks up your sleeve.
But do you think we don't have tricks of our own?" The Saint radiating sword light said solemnly.
Behind him appeared a sword light flashing with thunder.
"This is the Sword Qi granted by the Thunder Emperor Sword, capable of blocking the One Sword Separates Life you would execute with the Sword Dao Emperor's Dao Essence!
It can also kill you in an instant!"
Yang Yan's eyes slightly narrowed, if Xingye weren't present.
He might be apprehensive!
But now that Xingye was right before him, would he be afraid?
That was impossible!
Moreover, Xingye would never fail to act, because this group of Saints not only sealed Yang Yan's area with the aura of Saints but also sealed Xingye!
This was simply like an old man with a lantern entering an outhouse, seeking death!
"Scared? If you're scared, quickly hand over the Sword Dao Emperor's legacy!" the Saint radiating sword light pressed.
"Right, hand over the Sword Dao Emperor's legacy!" A voice came from behind the Saint radiating sword light.
They looked over to see the Immortal Ancient Saint of the Tianxuan Ancient Sect arriving through the Heavenly Gate with many Saints.
"Another group of Saints has arrived!" Yang Yan thought to himself.
The Saint radiating sword light frowned upon seeing the Immortal Ancient Saint.
"It's you, Immortal Ancient Saint, what are you doing here?" he asked in surprise.
The Immortal Ancient Saint stepped through the void to arrive.
"Of course, it's for Yang Yan, I saw that sword!"
"Are you here to claim a share?"
"Those who see have a share, wouldn't you agree?" the Immortal Ancient Saint said coldly.
The Saint radiating sword light exchanged a glance with the Saints accompanying him.
"Agreed!"
They had no choice but to agree!
The Tianxuan Ancient Sect and the Immortal Ancient Saint were stronger than them; they couldn't afford to offend them!
"Since you agreed to let the Immortal Ancient Saint have a share, what about us?" Another voice rang out from the front of the Heavenly Gate.
Another group of Saints passed through the Heavenly Gate and arrived!
"Floating Divine Palace!" the Saint radiating sword light said solemnly.
The Floating Divine Palace's power was even more immense than the Tianxuan Ancient Sect.
Spanning across seven Heavens, it was stronger than the Tianxuan Ancient Sect, which spanned five Heavens!
"And the Zong tianyu Sect..." The Immortal Ancient Saint's expression also turned grim.
He listed the names of one major force after another from the Heavens!
"Are you here for me as well?" Yang Yan asked.
At this moment, he was not flustered, remaining exceptionally calm!
"You caused such a commotion; how could we not come!" a Saint from the Floating Divine Palace said.
The Saints from many major forces arrived, all for Yang Yan.
"Stop the nonsense, since everyone is here.
Let's kill him and seize his Sword Dao Emperor's legacy.
Then we can discuss how to divide it!" The Immortal Ancient Saint interrupted.
"Yes, kill him to avoid future troubles!"
"If we kill him, won't we not know where the Sword Dao Emperor's legacy is?
In my opinion, we should join forces to extract his soul.
Interrogate him thoroughly; he will surely reveal the location of the Sword Dao Emperor's legacy!" a Saint suggested.
"Right, I agree!"
The Saints each voiced their agreement to extract Yang Yan's soul.
Yang Yan faced them with anger in his eyes.
"Soul extraction? Is this what righteous cultivators do? Such ruthless means!"
"Yang Yan, no matter what you say today, you're doomed!" the Saint radiating sword light said.
"Oh really? I think you won't be able to kill me!
Instead, you'll die before me!" Yang Yan said slowly.
His words made the eyes of many Saints flash with divine light.
"You're overthinking it, Yang Yan!
You've been locked down by us; you can't use any means, how will you fight us?
How will you kill us?
Nevertheless, for a genius of the Immortal Realm like you to draw so many of our forces' Saints down to the Lower Realm, it's something to be proud of!
Your name will be remembered!" The Immortal Ancient Saint said.
At this moment, many Saints encircled Yang Yan, leaving no escape in any direction.
"Do you think I don't exist?" Xingye spoke up at this time.
It snapped back to reality, realizing something.
"Oh? There's also a Divine Bird? I didn't notice earlier," the Immortal Ancient Saint said.
They hadn't really noticed, focusing only on Yang Yan.
"It seems to be a Divine Beast, the Golden Winged Great Roc, with King Realm Cultivation; it should be an immature Divine Beast!"
"Is it raised by Yang Yan? This kid is really lucky.
Not only did he acquire the Sword Dao Emperor's legacy, but he also has this Divine Bird as a companion!"
"But luck is useless now; next, he will die.
The Sword Dao Emperor's legacy will belong to us, and this Divine Bird will also be ours!" The Saint radiating sword light said with a murderous intent.
Xingye's sharp eyes moved.
"Arrogant in front of me?
It seems that tens of thousands of years have passed, and my name, my identity are no longer known!
A group of Saints can boast in front of me, not even taking me, Golden Feather Sovereign, into account!
Time, truly frightening!" It spoke slowly.
With a face full of melancholy, it found this matter very regrettable!
The Immortal Ancient Saint, and the Saints radiating sword light initially didn't care about Xingye.
But when Xingye spoke, with an ancient tone, of tens of thousands of years passing, and the name Golden Feather Sovereign, their expressions changed slightly.
"Golden Feather Sovereign? I think I've heard this name somewhere before!
Immortal Ancient Saint, you've lived the longest; you probably know, right?" A Saint looked at the Immortal Ancient Saint and asked.
The Immortal Ancient Saint's pupils suddenly trembled.
"I, remembered.
The only existence that self-proclaimed as Golden Feather Sovereign in the world, was a sparrow that followed the Sword Dao Emperor ten thousand years ago!
This sparrow later transformed into the Golden Winged Roc Divine Bird, self-titled Golden Feather Sovereign, roamed the Nine Heavens and Ten Earths!
It spent three thousand years as a Kun, three thousand years as a Peng.
With one spread of its wings, it could soar to the Nine Heavens!
It once fed on Saints, devouring thirty thousand Saints in one day..." As he spoke, his voice began to tremble.
