Yang Yan's figure emerged from the void, his face slightly pale.

This sword, "Heaven and Earth in a Line," was indeed more powerful than when he executed "One Sword Separates Life."

But the toll it took on him was also immense.

"Using one's strongest Supreme Sword Path as the core, wielding the Three Thousand Great Dao,

the Dao Essence and Power of Separation left by the Sword Dao Emperor is overwhelmingly powerful.

It can only be barely balanced!"

Only then did this sword have the ability to surpass when he performed "One Sword Separates Life," and as his cultivation grew stronger,

his understanding of the Dao deepened, and the power of this sword would become even greater.

"When I enter the Emperor Realm, this sword will be enough to carve up the heavens and the earth.

However, for now, although this sword is powerful for me,

in the future, it may not be!"

This was just the first sword Yang Yan devised; it was the beginning of his Sword Dao.

Since it was just the beginning, there would undoubtedly be more to come later.

So, this sword would only be the weakest sword in his future growth!

"The next sword will be deduced soon!"

When someone as cautious as Yang Yan displayed his strongest trump card in front of people, completely exposing it,

this strongest trump card meant it was not his strongest card anymore!

He had an even stronger card, yet to be brewed!

"Those who witnessed this sword are all dead now.

This sword, at present, is my strongest trump card!

It's just a pity that every time I use it, the Dao Essence left by the Sword Dao Emperor diminishes significantly."

During the process of utilizing the limited power,

consumption was inevitable!

And with the Sword Dao Emperor dead, once the Dao Essence remaining in his body completely vanished,

this strongest sword, without the backing of the Sword Dao Emperor's Dao Essence, would lose much of its power.

"I must find a substitute for the Sword Dao Emperor's Dao Essence before entering the Emperor Realm, such as other Great Emperors' Dao Essences or the Power of Separation from the Secluded World Stone itself!

And not the Power of Separation remaining in the Sword Dao Emperor's body!"

The Secluded World Stone had existed since ancient times; it was a giant rock.

But its strength could definitely rival that of a Great Emperor.

If it could rival a Great Emperor, how strong would its Power of Separation be?

"Once it acknowledges me, no matter how much the Power of Separation is consumed in the future, it will be able to replenish itself!

After all, the Secluded World Stone with the Power of Separation is a living existence!"

With a constant supply of Power of Separation, Yang Yan could use it freely, without worrying about depleting it.

Thinking this, he overlooked the Earthly List after exhibiting "Heaven and Earth in a Line" just now.

The treasures contained in the bodies of the slain Saint Heirs and Saintesses were falling, like rain.

In the sky, there were still whirlpools of void, floating continuously.

If anyone approached, they would be sucked in, life extinguished, and Dao vanished.

"The power after my sword fell is still very strong!

If a cultivator from the Immortal Realm touched it, death would be certain!"

Yang Yan moved, gathering up the treasures and storage bags one by one.

He took out many Divine Origins and Elixirs from them.

"The resources to break through one more level are probably enough!" He showed a delighted expression.

Then he took out several tokens, each engraved with a name.

"Those outside should know they are already dead.

Next, I should tell them who killed them!

I wonder if they'll jump in rage!" Yang Yan took out his own engraved token and merged it with the ones he obtained.

As he was merging, his figure moved continuously within the Earthly List.

He aimed to kill all the geniuses who hadn't yet been killed within the Earthly List.

"The geniuses in the Earthly List, I will kill them all, leaving none behind!

The treasures within the Earthly List also belong only to me!"

Outside the Earthly List, at the Heavenly God Sect on the first day,

inside the main hall, the Heavenly God Sect Master sat expressionlessly.

At this time, a figure rushed in, materializing.

"Sky Elder, why have you come?" the Heavenly God Sect Master asked, puzzled.

Sky Elder's face looked ghastly; he waved his hand.

Fragments of soul tokens appeared on the ground, each shattered into countless pieces within a short time!

This meant that the people who left these soul tokens were already dead!

"Sect Master, all the geniuses from the Heavenly God Sect who entered the Earthly List are dead!

Moreover, their soul tokens shattered almost simultaneously!" Sky Elder said painfully.

Those were the peak existences of the Immortal Realm within the Heavenly God Sect, and now all were annihilated.

The future of the Heavenly God Sect would be severely impacted!

The Heavenly God Sect Master suddenly stood!

"All dead? Simultaneously?

How is that possible!

Who in the Earthly List could kill them all together?

Besides, aren't they all carrying the Heavenly God Atlas that could summon ancient Heavenly Gods?" he exclaimed in disbelief.

Then he thought of someone, and his face changed dramatically.

"Could it be Yang Yan... No, that's impossible!

His strength is indeed formidable and impressive!

But the geniuses we dispatched from the Heavenly God Sect carried..."

Sky Elder lowered his head, unsure how to continue.

In his view, it was unlikely Yang Yan was responsible.

After all, Yang Yan's strength didn't reach such a level.

He was inclined to suspect a hidden strong person within the Earthly List!

"Sect Master, Sect Master, please look at the rankings on the Earthly List.

The names of the senior brothers have all disappeared!" a disciple exclaimed anxiously from outside.

Once a name disappeared, it meant that person had perished in the Earthly List.

The Heavenly God Sect Master's expression turned grave.

"Let's go take a look!"

He went outside and saw the names on the Earthly List vanishing one by one.

Whether ranked ninth thousandth or first,

all their names were vanishing, decreasing more and more.

And there was one name, moving ever forward in rank,

that name was Yang Yan!

"Yang Yan, it's really him!" The Heavenly God Sect Master's eyes were filled with rage.

Among the disciples of the Heavenly God Sect, Chu Shenwei looked on with an unchanged expression.

It seemed he had anticipated this!

"Senior Brother, luckily you didn't enter the Earthly List!" Xuanyuan Qingqing gazed at the almost lone remaining name on the Earthly List, trembling in fright.

Chu Shenwei's eyes were deep.

"He has become stronger!"

At the upper Ling Family, the Family Head of the Ling Family sighed as he looked at the Earthly List.

"It's all Ling Yu's fault; he had such a great opportunity, yet he simply gave it up!"

He was filled with disappointment and frustration!

"Yang Yan? What's so scary about him, he's just a lucky guy with the Sword Dao Emperor's inheritance.

In terms of real strength, there are countless geniuses in the world who can thrash him..."

At this point, the Family Head of the Ling Family's voice came to an abrupt stop.

He looked at Yang Yan's name on the Earthly List as if he had seen a ghost.

"Why has his name reached the top..."

On the first day, all the sects and forces.

The elders and disciples within their sects all stared at the Earthly List in the sky.

"The genius ranked first is dead!"

"Only he remains alive!"

"He's alive, and he's ranked first now!"

Yang Yan's name stood proudly on the Earthly List.

There was no name above his.

He was first!

In the Heavenly Buddhist Sect, countless golden Buddhas clasped their hands together!

"Amitabha!"

They were mourning for the deceased Buddha's son from the Buddhist Sect in the Earthly List!

After a long time, a vast golden Buddha spoke.

"Inform the Great Leiyin Temple, and discuss how to slay this demonic Yang Yan!"
