Within the Sealing Shock Barrier, everyone felt a chill of fear.

Ye Qingchen's palm raised to kill, as effortlessly as crushing an ant.

In that moment.

An endless wave of regret surged in their hearts.

No matter how tempting power and influence are, or how precious, how can they compare to one's own life?

"Everyone, let's join forces to break this seal!"

Yun Wanli of the Xingluo Sect shouted.

As soon as he finished speaking.

Together with seven or eight others from the Shifang Sword Sect, Celestial Secret Sect, and Supreme Sect, they simultaneously unleashed their True Qi. Instantly, cultivation techniques and martial skills surged over to bombard the Sealing Shock Barrier.

"Boom!"

A loud explosion was heard.

A roaring sonic wave erupted, stirring the winds and clouds throughout Taotian Peak. The ground shattered, earth flew, momentarily transforming into a raging sea.

"It's useless!"

An elder from the Infinite Sect quickly exclaimed, "This barrier is formed by wind force, to break it, your strength must surpass Ye Qingchen's."

Thud!

At this moment.

Ye Qingchen was already stepping forth with a Celestial Kill.

Since the founding of Taotian Palace, it had never offended the True Martial Sect and the eight major sects. Yet these people not only acted against Taotian Palace, they showed no mercy at all, naturally, Ye Qingchen harbored killing intent and did not intend to show leniency.

"Cold Cloud Palm!"

Yun Wanli roared furiously, his eyes wide open.

His long hair stood on end, his robes billowed, his cultivation driven to the extreme. As he moved his hands, he brought forth a towering cold cloud, though it was manifested from True Qi, it was solid as if real, freezing even the surrounding air.

The ground around was frozen layer by layer, frost spread rapidly.

Boom!

In an instant, the cold cloud poured down, forming two giant palms, suddenly enveloping Ye Qingchen.

Yun Wanli showed a smile; this cold cloud, refined from his lifetime's True Qi, was like ten-thousand-year-old ice, capable of freezing not only flesh but even steel and True Qi.

"Be careful, Ye Qingchen is not that easy to deal with!"

A middle-aged man from the Infinite Sect hurriedly warned.

Before the words were finished.

"Rip!"

A tearing sound suddenly resounded.

A burst of sword light suddenly appeared, tearing the cold mist apart in mid-air, simultaneously roaring forth.

"Ah!"

A scream echoed.

In the stunned eyes of everyone, Yun Wanli was directly split in half by the sword light.

Without the support of True Qi, the Cold Cloud Palm quietly dissipated, revealing Ye Qingchen, clad in green. He was completely unharmed, not even the edge of his clothes was touched by the cold cloud.

"How is it possible?"

To his death.

Yun Wanli could not believe.

His full-powered strike did not hinder Ye Qingchen in the slightest.

"Hiss!"

Witnessing this scene.

Everyone felt their hair stand on end, a chill running down their spines.

"Since there's no escape, we might as well fight to the death!"

An elder from the Shifang Sword Sect saw everyone hesitating and immediately shouted loudly.

Everyone was startled by his words.

They saw Ye Qingchen stepping through the air like a cloud dragon appearing nine times, heading towards their location. Although each step was extremely slow, it was imposing, as if trampling on their hearts.

"Everyone, attack together!"

Several Profound Pill Realm experts rushed forward together.

Seemingly knowing they were doomed, these people held back nothing.

Boom!

An elder from the Shifang Sword Sect made the first move.

He suddenly slapped a yellow gourd at his waist, and with a 'pop,' ten sword lights burst forth from the gourd. They were ten flying swords of various shapes!

"Arise!"

He suddenly squeezed a hand seal, and the flying swords seemed to merge into one line.

As they formed, they swept mightily forward.

Though there were only ten swords.

Their instantaneous power was like myriad swords returning to the sect!

Cultivators from the Celestial Essence Sword Sect acted almost simultaneously.

"Alas!"

He sighed deeply and suddenly stepped forward.

It was seen.

He spread his hands, a small blood-colored sword hovering in front of him. It seemed to be forged from blood, even showing a surging sea of blood within.

"Congeal!"

A resonant shout.

The Blood Sword exploded with a bang, a sea of blood churned, transforming into a ferocious, fanged blood dragon dozens of yards long. Like a towering chain, it surged forth, morphing into a blood light, charging towards Ye Qingchen.

The massive body of the blood dragon seemed to be infused with infinite strength, easily grinding a Profound Pill Realm expert into powder.

Boom!

In that moment.

Other major sect members also launched their attacks.

The sky filled with ripples of Spiritual Qi, countless blade lights and sword shadows covering the area. These people varied in strength, but attacking simultaneously, they stirred the Spiritual Qi around them, suddenly boosting their martial skills' power by thirty percent.

Even a Half-Step Celestial Saint would have to retreat from such an assault.

"Cloud Sword!"

Ye Qingchen softly called.

With his right hand, he grabbed as if the void was shaking, a Cloud Sword formed in mid-air, decisively slashing down.

In an instant.

Wherever the sword light reached.

All conditioned phenomena, like illusions and shadows!

Under this one sword, the Ten Directions Sword Array, the bloody frenzy dragon, and the countless blade lights and sword shadows, all seemed like illusions, easily broken.

They were like dead branches in a torrential flood, crushed on the spot.

"Rip!"

The sword light swept further, its momentum unabated.

"Ah!"

Amidst the wails of despair, virtually in an instant, those cultivators were cut in half.

The scene fell silent.

Everyone stared in shock at these events.

"This sword, compared to the time battling the Supreme Elder, is even more terrifying!"

Yun Xuan's mind shook violently.

He didn't know.

When Ye Qingchen fought Supreme Elder Ling Xiaozi, he had just grasped the "Nine Departures Sword Classic." Over time, he gained deeper understanding of this swordsmanship, naturally enhancing its power several times.

"Seven breaths!"

Only then did Ye Qingchen slowly retract his right hand, turning to look at the last member of the Infinite Sect.

The elder from the Infinite Sect exchanged glances with him, immediately freezing, as if drenched in icy water, fear welling from his heart.

Among the crowd, his strength was the weakest, unable to keep pace with the earlier attack and thus escaped disaster.

Now, having just initiated, with sword light swirling in hand, unsure if he should strike, it was like a hot potato, not knowing what to do.

"Young Master Ye, I beg you to spare my life, I am willing to pledge myself to you..."

"I don't agree!"

He was still speaking.

Ye Qingchen interrupted him unceremoniously, raising his hand for a slap.

Boom!

A massive impartial force descended without warning. In the shocked stares of everyone, this elder from the Infinite Sect was slammed into the ground by the force, his remains thoroughly pulverized.

By this time.

The nine breaths were finally completely over.

"Boom!"

In the void.

The Sealing Shock formed by the fierce wind quietly vanished. Everything that had been sealed began to flow and restore.

If not for the devastation everywhere.

Anyone would think the scene was a mere illusion.

However.

Everyone knew, this was all real.

And in the distance, those from the Celestial Peak Country watching secretly.

Were left looking at each other in astonishment.

Today's battle, if spread, would surely shake the entire Celestial Peak Country. This young man, upon returning, not only resolved the encirclement of Taotian Palace but also easily destroyed the True Martial Sect and eight major sects!

Such strength, who would not be amazed, who would not fear, who would not be in awe?

Indeed.

When the news spread, the entire Celestial Peak Country was in an uproar.
