Chapter 3711: The Three Sword Sect

“Hmph, perhaps their Daoist Sect of Xuanchi played a role in the crisis that our Immortal Sect of Colossal Elephants faced, so the Daoist Sect of Xuanchi deserves to be destroyed!” Ancestor Ling let out a cruel laugh. His eyes shone with bloodthirsty madness. The figure of the elephant behind him raised its front feet, stomping down on the Daoist Sect of Xuanchi once more with terrifying force.

Immediately, the entire Observance Heaven City shook gently again. Countless major organisations felt chills.

Inside the Daoist Sect of Xuanchi, countless disciples either perished under the colossal feet or were shaken to death by the powerful shockwaves.

“It’s just as ancestor Ling said. We’d rather kill a thousand wrongfully than let a single person slip away.” Ancestor Zang sneered as well, striking out with ancestor Ling. He mercilessly claimed the lives of the disciples of the Daoist Sect of Xuanchi.

Before the two Immortal Exalts, the Daoist Sect of Xuanchi did not have the ability to resist at all. Ranging from the low-level disciples who had only recently started cultivating to Immortal Emperor great elders, they all perished under the attacks of the two from the Immortal Sect of Colossal Elephants.

“Immortal Sect of Colossal Elephants, you had it coming when your sect was destroyed. All of your disciples deserved to die. They do not deserve any sympathy at all!” Inside the Daoist Sect of Xuanchi, an Immortal Emperor great elder rushed into the air, laughing away madly. His eyes were filled with resolve and an acceptance of death.

In the next moment, the Immortal Emperor great elder detonated himself with a rumble. A destructive energy swept towards the ancestors of the Immortal Sect of Colossal Elephants.

“You’re a mere Immortal Emperor. So what if you blow yourself up? It’s but a futile effort.” Ancestor Ling sneered. With a wave of his hand, he forcefully scattered the storm of energy produced by the Immortal Emperor.

The Cloud-treading Ancestor took action as well. His hand shattered the space and swiped through the air. A feeble soul appeared in his hand.

The soul belonged to a great elder of the Daoist Sect of Xuanchi. He had abandoned his body, attempting to flee with his soul using a secret technique, but he failed to get away.

Outside the Daoist Sect of Xuanchi, the people who had come to join the sect all fled frantically. Some of them looked back and happened to witness the deaths of the disciples of the Daoist Sect of Xuanchi, which immediately turned them pale-white.

“Dad, didn’t you say that the Daoist Sect of Xuanchi is very strong? Why… why are they being beaten so badly?” The boy called Cheng’er looked at his father with his large, fearful eyes.

His father was sheet-white. His lips trembled as he struggled to say anything. All he knew was to flee blindly. He wanted to leave the Daoist Sect of Xuanchi as quickly as possible. He had already been frightened out of his wits.

“Uncle Shui, is the Daoist Sect of Xuanchi really as strong as you said?” Elsewhere, there was another talented boy who asked the old man beside him.

......

…

During this recruitment ceremony held once every thousand years, the Daoist Sect of Xuanchi instead faced destruction in public view. It cast a tremendous, irremovable shadow in the hearts of everyone who had come to join the sect.

In less than a minute, all of the disciples of the Daoist Sect of Xuanchi apart from the Second Heavenly Layer Immortal Exalt ancestor had perished.

None of the dozen or so great elders were left alive either.

“Y-y-you’re far too vicious…” the ancestor of the Daoist Sect of Xuanchi said in despair. He was devastated and had already become heavily-injured.

“We’re not the vicious ones. If we hadn’t experienced such a great crisis, why would we turn our attention towards your Daoist Sect of Xuanchi? If you want someone to blame, blame the mysterious person who destroyed our sect.” The Cloud-treading Ancestor smiled sinisterly. Shortly afterwards, he opened his mouth and swallowed the ancestor of the Daoist Sect of Xuanchi alive.

The ancestor of the Daoist Sect of Xuanchi vanished, which also corresponded to the disappearance of one of the peak organisations on the Reverent Observance Heaven.

In under a minute, they had destroyed an ancient sect that had stood for several million years. That left many peak organisations on the Reverent Observance Heaven trembling in fear.

The Daoist Sect of Xuanchi had already been reduced to ruins. The fragments of various god artifacts and many loose pages were scattered in the surroundings.

The seven ancestors of the Immortal Sect of Colossal Elephants did not touch any of the resources in the Daoist Sect of Xuanchi. They were completely disinterested. The only thought in their heads was revenge and venting their fury.

The Daoist Sect of Xuanchi was the first stop, but it was definitely not the last stop!

The ocean on the Reverent Observance Heaven was expansive, littered with countless islands. In the centre of this colossal ocean was an island the size of a continent, standing quietly.

A powerful formation functioned on the island, gathering the spiritual Qi in the surroundings.

The island was called Three Sword island. It was renowned on the Reverent Observance Heaven.

This was where one of the peak organisations of the Reverent Observance Heaven, the Three Sword sect, stood.

The Three Sword sect was an ancient sect founded by three elderly Immortal Exalt sword immortals. It had already stood on the Reverent Observance Heaven for ten million years now.

However, during the war with the Saints’ World three million years ago, two of three ancestors had perished, only leaving one of them behind.

However, the Three Sword sect never changed its name.

And now, after all these years, the last ancestor continued to watch over the Three Sword sect.

Over the past ten million years, the Three Sword Sect had recruited many prodigies, but none of them had reached Immortal Exalt yet.

Suddenly, the space over the Three Sword sect collapsed. A colossal spatial crack appeared.

A colossal hand pierced through the sky, slamming heavily towards the Three Sword Sect below with destructive force.

At the same time, the protective formation of the Three Sword sect seemed to sense the threat. The entire formation immediately shone with dazzling light. Numerous immortal swords gathered in the air, turning into a dragon of sword Qi that rushed into the air with earth-shaking sword intent.

Boom!

The dragon of sword Qi collided with the descending hand, erupting with a deafening rumble.

However, the dragon of sword Qi shattered as soon as it made contact.

The hand condensed from energy continued onwards, slamming towards the Three Sword Sect below with devastating pressure.

“Fellows of the Immortal Sect of Colossal Elephants, my Three Sword sect has not provoked you, nor do we have any connection to your tragedy. Please show mercy!”

An elderly voice rang out from the Three Sword sect. A hunch-backed old man turned into a sword of blinding light and pierced through the air, slashing at the giant hand with lightning speed.

However, the attack only cut through three fingers. It failed to disperse the hand of energy.

Boom!

The protective formation of the Three Sword sect immediately shattered, but the hand seemed to run out of strength as well, dissipating slowly in the air.

The elderly sword immortal of the Three Sword sect shone with resplendent light as he levitated in the air. He was grim.

Seven figures stood before him. They were the seven ancestors of the Immortal Sect of Colossal Elephants.

“Over the years, many disciples of your Three Sword sect have been harassed by our Immortal Sect of Colossal Elephants. In particular, half a million years ago, two Immortal Monarch elders of your Three Sword sect were killed by the disciples of our Immortal Sect of Colossal Elephants. As a result, many of your disciples have been bearing a grudge towards our Immortal Sect of Colossal Elephants during these years.”

“Now that our Immortal Sect of Colossal Elephants has suffered such a great mishap, your Three Sword sect must be secretly celebrating.”

Ancestor Yue sneered.

“The disciples of our Three Sword sect were truly innocent for those matters in the past. It was your Immortal Sect of Colossal Elephants who abused your power to oppress them, mercilessly killing the elders of our Three Sword sect. My Three Sword sect is not as powerful as your Immortal Sect of Colossal Elephants, so we could only accept this. Are you saying that your Immortal Sect of Colossal Elephants won’t even permit us to be disgruntled?” the elderly sword immortal said sternly.

“Since you’re disgruntled, then you must be laughing at us right now. There is no need for the Three Sword sect to remain,” the Cloud-treading Ancestor said. His presence rose as the figure of a colossal elephant condensed behind him. He said to the people beside him, “This sword immortal is very powerful. He’s comprehended two ways to the Third Heavenly Layer. You’re not his opponent, so leave this person to me.”

“Looks like my Three Sword sect will be following the footsteps of the Daoist Sect of Xuanchi today.” The elderly sword immortal’s eyes were filled with sharpness and resolve. He opened his hand. Sharp sword intent immediately flooded out.

Three high quality god artifact swords appeared in his hand.

The elderly sword immortal glanced past the seven ancestors of the Immortal Sect of Colossal Elephants sharply. Among the seven of them, three were at the First Heavenly Layer, one was at the Second Heavenly Layer, and one was at the Third Heavenly Layer.

He had the confidence to kill all of them!

However, the elderly sword immortal settled on the Cloud-treading Ancestor in the end. He said calmly, “With the Space-splitting Venerable present, even if I lay down my life, I probably won’t even be able to kill the weakest one of you. As a result, Cloud-treading, you can receive this strike of mine instead.”

“This strike is my strongest strike!”

“It is also the last strike of my life!”

The three swords in the sword immortal’s hand suddenly shone with dazzling light. Sword Qi amassed inside.

The might of the three swords was rising at an unbelievable rate!

The elderly sword immortal’s body faded at a visible rate. In the end, it was as if he had turned into an illusion, fading with the wind.

He had merged his soul, his will, his blood, his bones, and his body into the three swords in his hand. With that, the power of the three swords completely surpassed the old sword immortal’s strength.

The Cloud-treading Ancestor gradually became serious. He could sense a powerful threat from the old sword immortal.

“Ancestor!”

From below, several dozen Immortal Monarchs and Immortal Emperors flew up. They were filled with grief.

The old sword immortal had used a forbidden secret technique of the Three Sword sect, sacrificing his body to the sword.

He sacrificed himself, using his death to endow the swords with unparalleled might so that he could deliver a startling strike.

“The Immortal Sect of Colossal Elephants has already lost their minds, so our Three Sword sect cannot avoid destruction today. If that’s the case, then fight gloriously and use the last bit of your life to deliver a painful strike to these elephant daemons. Make them understand that our Three Sword sect isn’t that easy to harass. Even upon death, thrust your swords at them viciously and give them an injury!”

“Our Three Sword sect can perish, but you elephant daemons will pay a price too.”

The old sword immortal’s voice boomed through the surroundings. It was vigorous and filled with a lofty spirit. It contained a sense of freedom, unfettered by death, unafraid of powerful foes, fearless towards everything.

The three swords rose into the air and radiated with terrifying killing intent, thrusting towards the Cloud-treading Ancestor with the remaining bit of the old sword immortal’s life.

Apart from the Cloud-treading Ancestor and the Space-splitting Venerable, no one from the Immortal Sect of Colossal Elephants could receive that attack.

The old sword immortal did not choose to go after an opponent weaker than him. Instead, he turned his attention towards the Cloud-treading Ancestor who was stronger than him.

If he went after anyone else, the Space-splitting Venerable would definitely interfere, and he would fail to harm any of them.

The old sword immortal had no choice but to choose an opponent that was two cultivation realms above than him.
