A golden long sword descended with a single strike.
The old man’s body trembled, and the divine light in his eyes dimmed.
The long sword turned and transformed into Han Muye. With a raise of his hand, the long sword and storage bag around the old man landed in his palm.
Grasping the hilt of the sword, scenes flashed before his eyes.
“In the Middle Three Heavens, the Soul-Breaking Sword Sect, how interesting.”
With a smile, Han Muye dissipated.
Only after his figure disappeared did a figure descend from the void, looking around with a frightened expression on his face.
“Impressive. The ninth in the world is actually more terrifying than the legends…”
The figure murmured, then chuckled softly, “Fortunately, I planned it well. Let’s see how you fall into my trap.”
“What trap?” Han Muye’s voice sounded behind him.
The figure froze, slowly turned around, and looked at Han Muye with an incredulous expression on his face.
“How… how could you—”
Before he could finish speaking, Han Muye had already thrown a punch.
As the fist struck, the edge of a sword became visible.
“Bang!”
The figure was shattered by a punch, and a broken sword landed in Han Muye’s hand.
“A person from the Upper Heaven Region? Yuhe Sword Sect’s Foreign Affairs Elder, Zheng Shanyuan?”
“So there’s still such an expert hidden in the Upper Heaven Region, Heavenly Venerable Tu Yuan of the Yuhe Sword Sect.
“As a Heavenly Venerable, you dare only to scheme from behind, how laughable.”
The Primordial Spirit Sword dissipated. Han Muye, who was standing on the deck, waved his hand to disperse the black fog in front of him. He said calmly, “Huang Zhihu, send a message. The Upper Heaven Region’s Heavenly Venerable Tu Yuan of the Yuhe Sword Sect is instigating a dispute behind the scenes. Kill him”
Huang Zhihu, who was standing not far away, bowed. A light array lit up in her hand.
“Yuhe Sword Sect, Heavenly Venerable Tu Yuan, eliminated.”
Li Qingshi and the others’ eyes shimmered as they watched the sword light soar into the sky.
The formation of a million sword cultivators could contend against a Heavenly Venerable.
The key was that once they broke through the mountain gate of the Yuhe Sword Sect and exposed a hidden Heavenly Venerable, they wouldn’t need these sword cultivators to take action anymore.
No matter how many words the Yuhe Sword Sect had, they couldn’t explain why they had a hidden Heavenly Venerable.
When Han Muye gave the order, the fate of the Yuhe Sword Sect and Heavenly Venerable Tu Yuan had already been sealed.
With a single word, the fate of a Heavenly Venerable was decided, determining the life and death of millions.
This was the true demeanor of a ruler.
Xia Zhenhu and the others looked at each other and smiled.
This was the dignity and decisiveness that the successor to the Divine Emperor should possess.
The flying ship continued its journey without any further obstacles, returning to the Upper Heaven Region. Millions of sword cultivators greeted them, and they headed straight for the Medicine Valley.
The changes in the Upper Heaven Region spread as well.
The formation of a million sword cultivators swept through the Yuhe Sword Sect, shattering 3,000 miles of mountains and rivers.
Heavenly Venerable Tu Yuan, who was hiding in the secret ground, had no choice but to take action, rescuing several elders and elite disciples of the sect.
Cultivators from all over the Upper Heaven Region were paying attention to the movements of the Heavenly Mystic Sword Formation, and wanted to see just how strong it truly was.
This battle silenced countless major sects in the Upper Heaven Region, and numerous cultivators were filled with fear.
The Heavenly Venerable had no choice but to go all out under the sword formation, but could only save less than 30 percent of the sect’s disciples.
Heavenly Venerable Tu Yuan was about to fight the Heavenly Mystic Sword Formation in front of the experts of the various sects who were originally just watching.
However, the experts of the various sects had no choice but to step forward.
The Heavenly Mystic sword cultivators had already forced the hidden Heavenly Venerable Tu Yuan to reveal himself, and if the various sects didn’t show any support, it would clearly mean a rupture with the Heavenly Mystic.
They couldn’t afford that.
Moreover, Heavenly Venerable Tu Yuan had hidden himself so deeply, clearly harboring ill intentions.
In front of the sword array, Heavenly Venerable Tu Yuan first took a sword strike from an elder who controlled the seven-story Sword Tower, and then directly confronted two Dao Ancestors from the Yuling Dao Sect with a combined technique.
In the end, the power of the million sword cultivators’ formation suppressed and destroyed the physical body of this Heavenly Venerable.
There were complaints among the major sects in the Upper Heaven Region because they hadn’t completely destroyed the Heavenly Venerable’s divine soul, allowing his spiritual consciousness to escape and leave the Upper Heaven Region.
The Essence Soul of a Heavenly Venerable had escaped, and the departure of 30 percent of the sect’s disciples posed a great danger.
Currently, the Upper Heaven Region had placed bounties totaling three billion spirit stones, attracting numerous bounty hunters from all walks of life who relied on rewards for their livelihood. They were all searching for Heavenly Venerable Tu Yuan and the remnants of the Yuhe Sword Sect behind him.
It was that simple.
All the former members of the Divine Court who had witnessed the entire event were shaken in their hearts.
The Young Emperor in front of him might not be as powerful as the Divine Court Emperor, but he was already not inferior to the lightning techniques of the Divine Court back then.
Li Qingshi and the others from the Medicine Valley were even more astonished.
This was the might of Prime Minister Han of the Heavenly Mystic.
With just a casual sentence, a mighty Heavenly Venerable crumbled and met with a shattered physical body, causing the collapse of the sect.
Fortunately, the Medicine Valley had sided with Minister Han.
Returning to the Cloud Heaven Medicine Valley, the sword cultivators each went into seclusion to cultivate.
Throughout the battles, they had also subdued numerous spiritual beasts and gathered various demon-transforming spiritual herbs.
With such abundant gains, it was enough for them to enhance their cultivation and combat strength.
The alchemists from the Medicine Valley who accompanied them made significant gains and almost all of them went into seclusion upon their return.
Although this visit to the Imperial Medicine Garden did not fulfill their initial expectations of overflowing abundance, the elevation of their state of mind and broadening of their horizons were not something that material wealth could compare to.
Han Muye returned to his small courtyard and also went into seclusion to organize his gains from this journey.
Among them were several treasures presented by the former members of the Divine Court in the old territory of the Left Imperial Capital, as well as various ancient records and documents from the Divine Court in ancient times.
There was also the Immortal Treasure, the Lightning Pearl that he had personally refined.
Mu Wan listed all the spirit herbs and immortal medicines they had collected in the Imperial Medicine Garden and stored away those they each needed with Han Muye.
With the grass whip in her hand, she personally entered the Medicine Garden to subdue the powerful demons. Naturally, Mu Wan wouldn’t return empty-handed like the disciples of the Medicine Valley..
