"The Demon Crystal has been stolen!" someone exclaimed in shock.

The entire place was instantly shaken.

At that moment, the gaze of both the Penglai Immortal and Li Jianyi landed on Wang Xiaoqiang simultaneously.

The theft of the Demon Crystal was exactly like the last incident; it vanished without trace or explanation. Thus, they deeply suspected that Wang Xiaoqiang was the culprit, as among all those present, only Wang Xiaoqiang's cultivation base was high enough to steal the Demon Crystal silently and invisibly,

Moreover, Wang Xiaoqiang's cultivation had progressed significantly and had breakthroughs in just a few days, which would have been impossible without the aid of the Demon Crystal.

Seeing the leaders of both sects fixing their eyes on him, Wang Xiaoqiang put on an expression of feigned innocence and spread his hands, "What? Am I that good-looking?"

"You again! It's always you who steals the Demon Crystal..." Li Jianyi pointed at Wang Xiaoqiang, "Don't think you can do whatever you want just because your cultivation base is high..."

Wang Xiaoqiang countered, "Even the police need evidence to make a case, what proof do you have that I did it?"

The Penglai Immortal's gaze turned toward the True Person of Taiyi, "True Person, your disciple is going too far by repeatedly stealing the Demon Crystals others have risked their lives to get. That's utterly immoral..."

"Morality?" The True Person of Taiyi scoffed, "And you speak to me of damn morality when just now your Six Grand Elders were also trying to seize the Demon Crystal and even colluded with Evil Cultivators..."

"Impossible, how could such a thing happen?" the Penglai Immortal responded angrily, appearing as if he was unaware of any misdeeds.

An Elder beside him spoke, "Master, do not listen to their slander. They are just trying to sow discord; you mustn't fall for it."

A sinister smile suddenly appeared on the Penglai Immortal's face, "Taiyi, if you keep sheltering Wang Xiaoqiang, don't blame me for being impolite..."

Seeing the Penglai Immortal tearing off all pretense, the True Person of Taiyi chuckled coldly, "You being impolite, what can you possibly do?"

"Penglai Immortal, since the Taiyi Sect refuses to see reason, let us join forces and annihilate them…" Li Jianyi immediately encouraged the Penglai Immortal.

"Alright, our two sects will join forces and eliminate the Taiyi Sect..." the Penglai Immortal responded gravely.

"Those who are not afraid of death, come at me — no matter how many come, I will slay them all…" Wang Xiaoqiang suddenly conjured an Immortal Sword from thin air; the sword glowed fiery red, bursting with light so tangible it was as though material flames danced along its blade, its brilliance majestic and irresistible.

"Kill! Eliminate Wang Xiaoqiang!" Li Jianyi commanded, waving his sword, and immediately, the disciples of the Mount Hua Sword Sect charged at Wang Xiaoqiang.

Swinging the Holy Flame Sword in his hand, Wang Xiaoqiang's sword light surged explosively to thirty feet in height like a small mountain.

Boom!

With one swing of his sword,

the sword light sent the charging disciples of the Mount Hua Sword Sect flying backward, spewing blood and perishing.

The disciples behind immediately halted their advance in fear, not daring to step forward.

Wang Xiaoqiang sneered coldly, but amid the great enemy before him, he had no time to absorb the True Yuan and Spiritual Energy of the fallen disciples.

"This young man is too formidable. Young Master Li, perhaps we should activate the Big Dipper Sword Formation against him..." the Penglai Immortal suggested to Li Jianyi upon seeing Wang Xiaoqiang instantly annihilate several Nascent Souls with a wave of his hand.

Upon hearing this, Li Jianyi instantly commanded, "Listen up, everyone, join me in activating the Big Dipper Sword Formation... and slay Wang Xiaoqiang!"

"Thinking of activating the Sword Formation now? Too late!" Wang Xiaoqiang sneered coldly and decisively lunged at the disciples of the Mount Hua Sword Sect with his sword.

"Disciples, follow me and slay Li Jianyi!" The True Person of Taiyi called out, and immediately, the ready disciples of the Taiyi Sect followed him into battle against the Mount Hua Sword Sect disciples, preventing them from activating the Big Dipper Sword Formation.

In their desperation to activate the Sword Formation, Li Jianyi and the others soared towards the sky like a flock of startled birds.

The six who were a step too slow were struck by Wang Xiaoqiang's sword light, instantly cleaved in half at the waist, spraying blood as they died.

After slaying the six, Wang Xiaoqiang didn't hesitate; he immediately took to the skies, pursuing the airborne Mount Hua Sect disciples.

Meanwhile, the Taiyi Sect members and the Penglai Immortal Sect's forces were also engaged in battle.

The scene was in utter chaos.

A grand melee, rare in the Cultivation Realm for a century, was about to begin.

The Mount Hua Sword Sect members swiftly flew towards the sky, aware that only by forming the Big Dipper Sword Formation could they ensure their safety. Otherwise, falling into Wang Xiaoqiang's hands, who was like a god of death, would mean certain death!

So, they raced desperately towards the sky.

Wang Xiaoqiang, stepping on the Spiritual Spring, naturally flew much faster than the Mount Hua Sword Sect members.

He chased after the six people lagging behind; their faces showed horror and despair, and they immediately released the immortal swords in their hands, striking at Wang Xiaoqiang.

Wang Xiaoqiang waved the Holy Flame Sword in his hand and sent the six immortal swords flying away.

Then, Wang Xiaoqiang swung his sword toward the six people.

Thud, thud, thud, thud, thud, thud!

The six people were hit and flung away, spurting fresh blood as they died.

After slaying the six, Wang Xiaoqiang continued to soar upward, and before everyone from the Mount Hua Sword Sect could form the Sword Array in the sky, he killed another five people.

By this time, the Mount Hua Sword Sect's Big Dipper Sword Array had already formed, but having just endured a fierce battle with the Barbaric Demon, everyone was exhausted. Although the array was activated, it was nearly impossible to perform at their normal level, and 11 of their members had already been slain by Wang Xiaoqiang, significantly weakening the power of the Big Dipper Sword Array.

The barely activated Big Dipper Sword Array slowly turned around, vaguely aiming at Wang Xiaoqiang.

"Big Dipper Sword Formation's Seven-Star Sword Rain!" Li Jianyi roared forcefully, and suddenly, sword lights rained down like a shower, their seven colors swirling as they shot toward Wang Xiaoqiang.

Seeing the dense sword rain approaching, Wang Xiaoqiang did not dare to be careless, moved his willpower, and 500 Spiritual Springs flew out from his body, forming a screen-sized Spiritual Energy Barrier in front of him.

The next moment...

Ding ding dang dang, the sound was incessant as the sword rain hit the barrier, blocked outside, none able to penetrate it.

"Hmph, Big Dipper Sword Array, just like that," Wang Xiaoqiang sneered, swung the Holy Flame Sword, and sliced towards the sword array's outermost purple zodiac.

The sword light surged forth, stretching several meters, whistling as it struck, throwing the group of people forming the sword array zodiac into disarray.

After breaking up one purple zodiac, Wang Xiaoqiang pressed forward, slashing as he went, only to see sword rain covering simultaneously from the other six zodiacs.

Wang Xiaoqiang did not wish for a prolonged battle, so his body kept advancing. While using the Spiritual Spring Barrier to defend against the sword rain, he rushed forward and swung the Holy Flame Sword, the sword light sweeping towards the disbanded group of people.

Ah, ah, ah...

The dozen people desperately fled, but still, three of them were swept by the sword light, screaming in agony and falling to their deaths.

However, the remaining people quickly regrouped, forming a purple zodiac, and the seven stars were once again complete.

Even so, the strength of the Big Dipper Sword Array was further weakened at this time. Especially the purple zodiac, which had just lost two people, was the dimmest in light.

Wang Xiaoqiang waved his Holy Flame Sword, and the sword light surged, striking again at the purple zodiac.

By now, Wang Xiaoqiang had realized that this Big Dipper Sword Array, with colors red, orange, yellow, green, blue, indigo, and purple, when combined into a Seven-Color Sword Formation, worked as one entity with mutual support; lacking any part would be detrimental.

Thus, destroying one zodiac meant shattering the entire Big Dipper Sword Array.

With one swing of the sword, the weakest purple zodiac once again failed to hold, violently breaking apart.

Wang Xiaoqiang repeated his technique, leaping forward, spurred his Spiritual Power, and the sword light swelled, swinging his sword at the scattering group of people.

This sword, Wang Xiaoqiang pushed its sword light to the limit, therefore, this blow struck down all twelve people of the purple zodiac, causing them to explode violently.

The fate of the Big Dipper Sword Formation was such that if one part suffered, all suffered.

Now, with one star collapsed, the remaining six stars were merely empty shells without any power, thus the six stars scattered hastily in all directions, fleeing.

Wang Xiaoqiang paid no attention to the others and solely targeted the figure of Li Jianyi, pursuing him.

Seeing Wang Xiaoqiang chasing after him, Li Jianyi was so frightened that he scurried away frantically, hastily opening a Spiritual Energy Shield, and desperately trying to escape.

"You can't escape!" Wang Xiaoqiang's lips revealed a cold smile, closely staring at Li Jianyi like prey, and after a few quick steps, he slashed his sword.

Boom!

Suddenly, the Spiritual Energy Shield around Li Jianyi was shattered, and simultaneously, the sword light, growing stronger instead of weakening, struck Li Jianyi's right arm.

Whoosh!

Li Jianyi's entire right arm was severed, and blood spurted wildly.

"Aaah..." Li Jianyi let out cries of despair and unwillingness. He stopped running and turned around, staring at Wang Xiaoqiang with bloodshot eyes, "Wang Xiaoqiang, you cannot kill me, I am a disciple of the Mingjian Manor from the Immortal Realm, if you kill me, Mingjian Manor will not let you go..."

"Mingjian Manor, I spit on it! I'm going to kill you today!" Wang Xiaoqiang spurred his Spiritual Power, and suddenly the sword light surged, slashing down from above directly at Li Jianyi's head.
