Lib ReadBringing a group of disciples, Sect Master Heavenly Access arrived outside Borderless Heavenly Capital at an extreme speed.
When Sect Master Heavenly Access stopped, a gale swept through the city.
鈥淒uobao, you take charge of the Immortal Executioner Sword鈥檚 position!鈥?Sect Master Heavenly Access shouted sternly.
鈥淵es, Master!鈥?a man in Daoist robes answered.
鈥淶hao Gongming, San Xian, you two take charge of the Immortal Killer Sword鈥檚 position!鈥?Sect Master Heavenly Access ordered.
鈥淵es, Master!鈥?the two answered.
鈥淛in Ling! Huo Ling, you two take charge of the Immortal Trapper Sword鈥檚 position!鈥?Sect Master Heavenly Access said solemnly.
鈥淵es, Master!鈥?the two answered.
鈥淭he others, take charge of the Immortal Ender Sword鈥檚 position!鈥?Sect Master Heavenly Access shouted.
鈥淵es!鈥?the rest answered.
[TL Note: The named disciples above are all Taoist deities.]
Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom!
When Sect Master Heavenly Access waved, the Immortal Executioner Sword, the Immortal Killer Sword, the Immortal Trapper Sword, and the Immortal Ender Sword carried his disciples to the four cardinal directions of Borderless Heavenly Capital.
Surging sword qi immediately erupted, rushing at the city.
At the same time, a loud sound came from Borderless Heavenly Capital. A humongous ritual array鈥檚 barrier instantly covered everything.
The pressure from Sect Master Heavenly Access caused the countless citizens鈥?expressions to change dramatically; they looked at Sect Master Heavenly Access in horror. However, they quickly calmed down and turned to the imperial palace, towards the Soaring Palace Hall鈥檚 plaza.
Gu Hai had walked out to the Soaring Palace Hall鈥檚 plaza.
The Han Imperial Dynasty鈥檚 civil and military officials quickly thronged to him.
Kong Xuan, Shangguan Hen, Ao Shun, the Mosquito Daoist, Gao Xianzhi, and the others stood behind Gu Hai, looking sullenly at the experts in the surroundings. Of course, they eventually fixed their gaze on Sect Master Heavenly Access standing in the sky.
Sect Master Heavenly Access flung his sleeves out, looking coldly at Gu Hai in the Soaring Palace Hall鈥檚 plaza.𝘭𝒾𝑏𝑟𝑒𝒶𝒹.𝘤𝘰𝓂
Gu Hai took out the Life Trapper Saber and placed it in the air. Then it seemed to merge with the ritual array protecting the entire Borderless Heavenly Capital.
鈥淪ect Master Heavenly Access? Hah! This is the Wu Imperial Dynasty鈥檚 second wave of attacks, right? You became his pawn?鈥?Gu Hai sneered.
鈥淧awn? No one can turn this sect master into their pawn. You are the pawn. Gu Hai, let鈥檚 see how you are going to flee this time! Who will you ask for help from?! Just call them out. Let鈥檚 see who can withstand this sect master鈥檚 Immortal Executioner Sword Ritual Array!鈥?Sect Master Heavenly Access said coldly.
Gu Hai looked at Sect Master Heavenly Access and smiled coldly. 鈥淎sk for help? This is our Han Imperial Dynasty, our Borderless Heavenly Capital. Do you think we will ask for help?鈥?
鈥淥h?鈥?Sect Master Heavenly Access skeptically eyed Gu Hai.
鈥淪ect Master Heavenly Access, all the humiliation from before came from yourself. We have never targeted you. On account of Sect Master Supreme Ascendant, we will give you one chance to leave. Otherwise, don鈥檛 blame us for not giving you face!鈥?Gu Hai said coldly.
鈥淗ah! Hahahahaha! This sect master wants to see how you are going to not give us face. Humph! Let鈥檚 see how you are going to deal with my Immortal Executioner Sword Ritual Array without helpers. With just Kong Xuan and the others? They are far from sufficient!鈥?Sect Master Heavenly Access said coldly.
鈥淵our Reverence, this official volunteers to fight!鈥?Kong Xuan immediately said after stepping forward.
鈥淭here will be a chance for you to fight later,鈥?Gu Hai said indifferently.
Kong Xuan looked at Gu Hai with confusion.
Gu Hai sneered at Sect Master Heavenly Access. 鈥淲e have been back for a few months already. Does everyone think we are easy pickings just because there are no Go Dao laws? Excellent! Excellent! How very excellent! Sect Master Heavenly Access, you have delivered yourself to me. This is good timing. It is time to show the world whether we are easy pickings. Humph!鈥?Gu Hai vigorously let out a cold snort.
When Sect Master Heavenly Access heard Gu Hai鈥檚 words, his face sank slightly. There were spies from many factions within and around Borderless Heavenly Capital. After all, Gu Hai had long been famous, so many people kept an eye on this place. When they heard Gu Hai鈥檚 hostile shout at Sect Master Heavenly Access, they appeared confused.
You鈥擥u Hai鈥攃an deal with Sect Master Heavenly Access by yourself? Aside from being incredible at calling for help, this is impossible for you, right?
鈥淵ou are just using Borderless Heavenly Capital鈥檚 ritual array? Do you believe this sect master鈥檚 Immortal Executioner Sword Ritual Array can shred it with a wave of my hand?鈥?Sect Master Heavenly Access sneered.
鈥淚t is just the Immortal Executioner Sword Ritual Array. We also know it,鈥?Gu Hai said coldly.
As Gu Hai spoke, he operated the Life Trapper Saber.
Suddenly, sword qi of four colors appeared outside Borderless Heavenly Capital. These were not the sword qi from the Immortal Executioner Sword Ritual Array but sword qi manifested by Borderless Heavenly Capital鈥檚 Go Dao ritual array.
When Gu Hai鈥檚 sword qi of four colors appeared, they swept into the surroundings like a storm.
Boom!
Gu Hai鈥檚 and Sect Master Heavenly Access鈥檚 sword qi clashed, causing space to shudder.
Sect Master Heavenly Access鈥檚 sword qi revolved around Borderless Heavenly Capital in a clockwise direction, while Gu Hai鈥檚 sword qi moved in a counterclockwise direction.
Loud explosions rang out endlessly.
鈥淭he Immortal Executioner Sword Ritual Array?!鈥?The Mosquito Daoist鈥檚 expression changed.
The Mosquito Daoist had seen Gu Hai studying the diagram in the Three Pure Ones Hall earlier. He fully grasped it in just a while?
Gu Hai just lacks the Four Immortal Executioner Swords. Aside from that, his sword qi is no weaker than Sect Master Heavenly Access鈥檚.
鈥淭his is?鈥?Sect Master Heavenly Access鈥檚 face sank.
He could tell that Gu Hai鈥檚 sword qi was exactly the same as the Severed Sect鈥檚 Heavenly Access鈥檚. Gu Hai knows it too?
Gu Hai鈥檚 Life Trapper Saber blocked the pressure from the Four Immortal Executioner Swords.
鈥淗umph! Immortal Executioner Sword qi? Without the Four Immortal Executioner Swords, yours is just a framework. Do you know what the Immortal Executioner Sword Ritual Array is? Every sword in the Immortal Executioner Sword Ritual Array is the Immortal Executioner Sword!鈥?Sect Master Heavenly Access shouted coldly.
Suddenly, Sect Master Heavenly Access extended his hand and grabbed a sword qi. Then that sword qi solidified, turning into an Immortal Executioner Sword.
In the arrangement of swords, there was a towering Immortal Executioner Sword in the east. However, another Immortal Executioner Sword appeared in Sect Master Heavenly Access鈥檚 hand out of nowhere.
鈥淭he Immortal Executioner Sword Ritual Array? Indeed, we would not be able to deal with you if you were in the Myriad Age Daoist Sect. However, this is the Han Imperial Dynasty. This is Borderless Heavenly Capital. This is our capital. Yet, you lay the Immortal Executioner Sword Ritual Array here? What a joke!鈥?Gu Hai snorted coldly.
After that cold shout, Gu Hai started speaking again. 鈥淗an Imperial Dynasty citizens, we are Gu Hai. We have returned to the Han Nation. Now, evildoers have come to attack us. They come in full fury, desiring to destroy the Han Nation, destroying to break our nation! We鈥擥u Hai鈥攁sk the Han Nation citizens to beat the enemy into retreat with us. Raise your right hands and lend your energy to us! We will defeat the evildoers, push back the enemy, and establish our nation鈥檚 might!鈥?
The gigantic golden blessings dragon above the blessings cloud sea suddenly shifted to an upright pose from a recumbent posture.
Roar!
The golden blessings dragon roared, and the blessings cloud sea churned endlessly. Gu Hai鈥檚 voice reached all the Han Imperial Dynasty citizens鈥?ears through the golden blessings dragon.
Among the officials, Chen Tianshan was the first to raise his right hand.
鈥淲e respectfully ask Your Reverence to defeat the enemy and establish our nation鈥檚 might!鈥?
After Chen Tianshan, countless other officials not involved with the defense raised their right hands. Borderless Heavenly Capital鈥檚 citizens also raised their right hands.
鈥淵our Reverence, take this humble citizen鈥檚 energy. Push the enemy back and establish the nation鈥檚 might!鈥?
Aside from Borderless Heavenly Capital, the citizens of the Han Imperial Dynasty鈥檚 nearly three hundred cities heard Gu Hai鈥檚 voice. Led by the many city lords, the citizens raised their right hands.
鈥淵our Reverence, push the enemy back and establish the nation鈥檚 might!鈥?
鈥淵our Reverence, I鈥檒l give you my energy!鈥?
鈥淗is Reverence has returned! Hahahaha! I鈥檒l give you my energy!鈥?
鈥淟ong live the Han Nation!鈥?
Beams of white light shot towards the golden blessings dragon from all directions. The golden blessings dragon鈥檚 figure immediately swelled up.
Roar!
The golden blessings dragon reared its head back and roared. Then it charged down at Gu Hai.
Gu Hai flew into the sky.
Boom!
The golden blessings dragon entered Gu Hai鈥檚 body, carrying the energy of countless citizens from the Han Imperial Dynasty鈥檚 three hundred cities.
Crack! Crack! Crack! Crack!
Gu Hai鈥檚 body suddenly swelled up due to the immense energy.
Had it been a year ago, Gu Hai could not have endured this much energy. However, a peak energy had tempered his body in the eighteenth layer of hell. With his physical body now at its peak, he naturally could endure this vast energy. Furthermore, his cultivation had reached the Upper Heavenly Palace Realm, no longer limiting him.
Thus, Gu Hai could handle however much energy there was.
鈥淗ah! Driving the power of your nation? Unfortunately, yours is just an imperial dynasty. If it were a heavenly dynasty, this sect master might have to pay some attention. Now, with just you?鈥?Sect Master Heavenly Access snorted coldly in disdain.
Then he swung the Immortal Executioner Sword in his hand. It carried a destructive might, tearing a large hole in space like a towering heavenly execution. It looked like it could shatter the entire Borderless Heavenly Capital in one strike.
鈥淓yes of Life and Death!鈥?
Gu Hai鈥檚 eyes suddenly gave off a black light and a white light. When the Eyes of Life and Death appeared, they could see all weaknesses.
鈥淓ighth Cycle!鈥?
Gu Hai drew his Life Executioner Saber and swung it at the sky.
The Life Executioner Saber seemed slightly weaker than the Immortal Executioner Sword in aura. Even when driving the power of the Han Nation, it did not seem like it could defeat the Immortal Executioner Sword.
Aside from a few with absolute confidence in Gu Hai, most believed Gu Hai would lose. Defeat would mean losing Borderless Heavenly Capital.
Boom!
A loud report rang out as the saber and the sword clashed. All the sword qi outside the defensive ritual array belonging to Gu Hai and Heavenly Access exploded.
The ground under Gu Hai trembled, and the entire Borderless Heavenly Capital shook.
However, Borderless Heavenly Capital only shook once. Gu Hai stood stable in the Soaring Palace Hall鈥檚 plaza. On the other hand, the Immortal Executioner Sword in Sect Master Heavenly Access鈥檚 hand exploded.
鈥淗ow can this be?鈥?Sect Master Heavenly Access鈥檚 expression changed.
Even though he did not move back and this Immortal Executioner Sword had just been manifested by the sword ritual array, it had still carried half the might of the Immortal Executioner Sword. Nevertheless, Gu Hai exploded it?
鈥淭hat鈥檚 impossible!鈥?Sect Master Heavenly Access鈥檚 disciples in the surroundings exclaimed.
鈥淗is Reverence is undefeatable!鈥?countless Han Nation citizens cheered.
鈥淗ah! It鈥檚 nothing much. Again!鈥?Gu Hai glared and soared into the sky, rushing at Sect Master Heavenly Access.
After this saber strike, Gu Hai felt absolute confidence. So what if I face Sect Master Heavenly Access? This is Borderless Heavenly Capital, my home ground! I have billions of Han Nation citizens helping me and can chop down Heavenly Access.
鈥淜ong Xuan, Mosquito Daoist, deal with Sect Master Heavenly Access鈥檚 disciples. The others, protect Borderless Heavenly Capital and the citizens!鈥?Gu Hai shouted.
鈥淵es!鈥?the officials answered.
It can be hard to make great work when its stolen from innread.com.
Kong Xuan and the Mosquito Daoist immediately followed Gu Hai, charging out of Borderless Heavenly Capital鈥檚 ritual array, and headed for the people outside.
鈥淪pare no one! Kill them all!鈥?Gu Hai shouted ferociously.
鈥淵es!鈥?Kong Xuan and the Mosquito Daoist answered.
