At the peak of a mountain 5,000 miles away, an older man sat in a lotus position while meditating under the moon. At this moment, his eyes suddenly snapped open. It shone brightly as he looked into the distance.
“This is the energy sword sealed by my martial uncle! This is bad! The Holy Son is in danger!”
The older man’s expression changed drastically when he figured out what was happening. He looked like a streak of light as he flew toward his destination.
…!!
Meanwhile, Jiang Ming’s eyelids twitched as he looked at the destructive energy sword in front of him. The air seemed frozen, and he felt so heavy, as though a mountain was pressing down on him. At this time, Linglong’s voice rang in his ears, telling him that the energy sword was the power of a Paradis expert.
‘Paradis expert?’ Jiang Ming’s heart skipped a beat.
A Paradis cultivator was on a whole different level compared to a Primal Spirit cultivator. Even if this power had been sealed for a long time, it was still a huge force to be reckoned with.
In just a blink of an eye, the energy sword, which seemed like it could tear the sky asunder, fell toward Jiang Ming.
Jiang Ming felt as though he was being restrained by invisible hands. He could not move to avoid the incoming attack no matter how hard he struggled.

“Great Akasa Formless Sword Qi!” Jiang Ming unleashed all his power at this moment. He swung his sword and manifested nine energy swords.
The nine energy swords swiftly surged into Purple Cloud. Then, crisp noises rang in the air as cracks appeared on its surface.
Nine energy swords indicated that one had reached the rudimentary stage.
Boom!
Jiang Ming slashed the Purple Cloud upward, bringing it to meet the descending energy sword in midair.
A devastating burst of energy swept out when the two attacks collided.
Boom!
Energy swords shot out in all directions as the void rippled and distorted.
Crack!
The Purple Cloud shattered into pieces, and Jiang Ming was also pushed back 1,000 meters by the blast.
“Impressive!” Jiang Ming exclaimed. This was by far the strongest attack he had encountered. It had forced him to unleash his full strength. He sighed in relief when he lifted his head and saw that the energy sword had dissipated after the collision.
Meanwhile, Zi Linglong, who was watching from a distance, frowned deeply.
‘He’s terrifyingly strong! Although he’s only in the Dao Seed Realm, he’s able to hold his ground against the sealed force of a Paradis expert! Even I am not capable of such a feat. If I were in his shoes earlier, there are only two outcomes for me: dead or grievously injured. However, he…’
‘When he cast his technique earlier, it felt like he had a mysterious connection to the space around him. His mastery over the law of space and the force of his technique is definitely top-notch among cultivators. However, even if he’s terrifyingly strong, how could he parry the attack of a Paradis expert? Just how much mana does he have? Ten times more than mine? Now, it should be at least 100 times more. But how’s that possible? How can such a freak like him exist in the mortal realm?’
Zi Linglong still found it difficult to accept after analyzing the person in front of her.
‘I don’t remember such a person in my previous life. Just where or when did things start to change?’ Zi Linglong could not figure it out no matter how hard she tried.
Meanwhile, Bai Yu felt even more dumbfounded than Zi Linglong. His shock was written all over his face as he exclaimed in disbelief, “You blocked my attack?! No, I can clearly sense you’re not in the Nascent Soul Realm nor did you form your Primal Spirit. You’re only in the Dao Seed Realm so there’s no way you could’ve blocked my attack! You… You must be hiding your strength! I don’t care if you’re hiding your strength; you’re still going to die today! Astral Primal Sword Array!”
Bai Yu raised his hand as 108 swords soared into the sky. In just a matter of minutes, they filled the entire sky and formed a circle with all their tips pointed at Jiang Ming. They thrummed, distorting the void around them. After a brief moment, energy swords flew out one after another and swept toward Jiang Ming like a storm.
At this time, Blue Crystal, a high-grade Artifact, materialized in Jiang Ming’s hand. Truth be told, he was not concerned about the sword array at all. After all, Bai Yu was just a Dao Seed cultivator. Even if Bai Yu was a Holy Son and had the Heaven Overlord Body, Bai Yu was still no match for him.
“Slice the Heaven!”
Jiang Ming brandished his sword, blocking all the energy swords that shot at him. After a moment, a huge number of energy swords burst forth from his body and formed a shield around him to ward off the attack.
“I’ll draw my sword and cleave the sky into two!” Jiang Ming blasted the sword formation apart at this moment.
The 108 swords flew back immediately.
Upon seeing this, Jiang Ming sighed in disappointment. If it were him, he was certain nobody would be able to break his Formation. ‘What a shame.’
“Die!” Jiang Ming prepared to cast his special ability as the fluctuations from the Death Dao surged. He swung his sword down with all his might at Bai Yu’s head.
The clouds parted as the sky rippled. The moon shone brightly like a solitary white disc in the sky.
Bai Yu inhaled deeply as he brought a hammer. It was huge. Its handle alone was more than two meters long, and the diameter of its head was about a foot long. As soon as it appeared, a destructive force exploded.
Bai Yu roared, “You’re the one who’s going to die today!”
Bai Yu swung the hammer down. The leyline in the ground thrummed as energy exploded. The force of the attack was immense and unimaginably destructive.
Boom!
The wind stirred and the earth shook.
The impact blew Bai Yu back, and the hammer almost dropped from his hand. A surprised expression appeared on his face when he saw the Dao Vessels on his body flashed one after another.
“I was hurt?!” Bai Yu exclaimed.
“The Heaven Shattering Hammer and the armor I’m wearing are low-grade Dao Vessels. Your sword is just a high-grade Artifact! There’s a huge difference between them. Even if I couldn’t stop your attack, my armor should’ve absorbed most of the damage. There’s no way you could’ve injured me!” Bai Yu continued to ramble on in disbelief.
Bai Yu narrowed his eyes as killing intent shone in them. “You old monster from the Qingyun Sect! You’re hellbent on killing me, the Holy Son of the Infinite Alchemy Pavilion! It seems like the Qingyun Sect really wants to wage a war against the Infinite Alchemy Pavilion! Very well! Let me show you the might of the Infinite Alchemy Pavilion!”
Swoosh!
Bai Yu waved his hand and sent a glowing disc formation toward Jiang Ming.
When the disc formation shone, it drew energy from the void and transformed into a chain that imprisoned Jiang Ming.
“Is this all you’ve got?” Jiang Ming scoffed. He brought his sword down and cleaved the disc formation into two. Just when he thought he had successfully neutralized the attack, a ball of flames descended and exploded.
“I can’t believe a Holy Son would stoop so low and resort to such a dirty trick!” Jiang Ming narrowed his eyes. Then, he vanished into thin air. When he reappeared, he was already very far away from the explosion. When he looked at the spot where he was standing earlier, nothing could be seen but ashes.
“I’m the Holy Son of the Infinite Alchemy Pavilion, and the Artifacts are my weapons,” Bai Yu said, not letting his guard down, “What about you? You’re an old freak, but you attack someone younger than you! Don’t you feel any shame?”

“You deserve it!” Jiang Ming used the Great Akasa Step and appeared in front of Bai Yu.
Bai Yu defended himself with the Heaven Shattering Hammer, but he was sent flying back again. However, this time, he spat out a mouthful of blood. He was in such excruciating pain that it felt as though his body was being torn apart.
Bai Yu was horrified by Jiang Ming’s immense strength. Fear and anxiety began to sprout in his heart.
‘I’ve been very careful. I activated the jade amulet after he killed my four guardians. After activating the jade amulet, the other guardians should’ve rushed to my aid immediately. Where are they? Is it because I’m too far away?’ Bai Yu’s expression changed when this thought appeared in his mind.
“The power of the Dao Vessels is indeed formidable, but this is where it ends,” Jiang Ming said, “Remember this! Your demise is caused by you trampling on Qingyun Sect’s dignity!”
“With my sword, I’ll cleave the sky into two! Meet your death! Ultimate Slash!” Jiang Ming unleashed the strongest form of this special ability. At the same time, he imbued it with the Destructive Sambodha he had comprehended, boosting the attack to another level.
“No! There’s no way for me to block this attack!” Bai Yu’s face turned ashen. He could now sense his guardian was on the way over, but it was too late.
‘It’s all or nothing now!’ Bai Yu thought to himself as he tossed something into the air before a chessboard appeared in the air.
As soon as the chessboard appeared, the void distorted and rippled, destroying Jiang Ming’s energy sword.
Following that, the chessboard suddenly turned into an orb, pulling Jiang Ming into it..
