After deploying the defensive spiritual artifact, it completely enveloped Jin Hall. In the blink of an eye, the Taiyi Celestial Ruins Sword struck solidly on the defensive spiritual artifact, cutting through it with one swift stroke. Without the artifact’s defense, Jin Hall’s expression changed drastically. He never imagined that such a spiritual artifact couldn’t withstand the opponent’s flying sword attack and was split open in the blink of an eye. Now, Jin Hall was completely exposed in front of the flying sword, The power of the Taiyi Celestial Ruins Sword was only reduced by thirty to forty percent, making it extremely easy to cut through the flesh of a Foundation Establishment Cultivator. With a squelching sound. In an instant, the Taiyi Celestial Ruins Sword struck Jin Hall, splitting him in half with a single blow. The moment Jin Hall was slain, it couldn’t escape Sun He’s eyes, causing Sun He’s expression to change in horror. On the side, witnessing Lu Yuanshan break apart Jin Hall’s defensive spiritual artifact with one stroke and then kill him with a single sword, Lin Hanshu and the other two expressed their shock. At this moment, Lu Hongniang and Xu Yang took a closer look at Lu Yuanshan, immediately recognizing him. Xu Yang and Lu Hongniang spoke in succession, moving toward Lu Yuanshan. Lin Hanshu roughly understood the situation now, guessing that it was probably the two fellow sect mates who intervened, and he immediately put away the Spirit Turtle Shield and moved toward Lu Yuanshan. Now looking at Sun He, he quickly took action in an attempt to escape by summoning a sword light. The fall of Jin Hall made Sun He greatly apprehensive. Jin Hall’s strength was similar to his own, yet under such circumstances, Jin Hall was instantly killed by Lu Yuanshan, with even the defensive spiritual artifact being broken with one stroke. Then how much chance of victory would he have against Lu Yuanshan? Moreover, there were three disciples from Shenxiao Palace on the side. Fleeing seemed to be the best option. But how could Lu Yuanshan allow Sun He to leave, not wanting to leave this hidden danger behind, he immediately pursued Sun He. ʀᴇᴀᴅ ʟᴀᴛᴇsᴛ ᴄʜᴀᴘᴛᴇʀs ᴀᴛ 𝔫𝔬𝔳𝔢𝔩·𝕗𝕚𝕣𝕖·𝘯𝘦𝘵 The Taiyi Celestial Ruins Sword struck with a single sword thrust. Sun He, horrified, felt the flying sword rapidly approaching from behind, couldn’t care less about the exhaustion of magical power, manipulating the flying sword to quickly ascend to evade this sword. But what if he evades it? One sword failed to hit Sun He, Lu Yuanshan spread his Wind Thunder Wings and used the Purple Extreme Escape Light body technique simultaneously, his speed increased explosively in the blink of an eye, directly catching up with Sun He. Closing the distance, Lu Yuanshan again urged the Taiyi Celestial Ruins Sword. The flying sword burst forth with a powerful Vast Sword Qi, leaving Sun He unable to dodge this time, he could only summon another flying sword to resist. With a clanging sound. Sun He’s flying sword was severely damaged by a single strike, breaking into two pieces. Lu Yuanshan seized the opportunity to continue the attack, with a sweep of his sleeve, the Qingyin Flying Sword tore through the air, forcefully penetrating Sun He’s chest. With his chest pierced by the Qingyin Flying Sword, Sun He’s life force rapidly dwindled, his face filled with fear. He wanted to open his storage bag, to take out an elixir for healing, to preserve his life. Meanwhile, he wailed aloud. "Don’t kill me, I bear no intent of fighting you..." No sooner had he spoken, severely injured, he lost control over his flying sword, crashing to the ground with a bang, with the Flowing Light Flying Sword clattering loudly. Lu Yuanshan’s heart showed no mercy, controlling the Qingyin Flying Sword, in Sun He’s terrified gaze, with a single strike he cut off Sun He’s head. The two Third-Layer Foundation Establishment Cultivators were slain by Lu Yuanshan within ten moves. This entire process was witnessed by Lin Hanshu, Lu Hongniang, and Xu Yang. All three were not only shocked by Lu Yuanshan’s strength, but also deeply intrigued by the Taiyi Celestial Ruins Sword he wielded. With one sword able to sever Sun He’s flying sword and break a magical artifact, its power upon striking was exceptionally formidable, far exceeding the strength of a Fourth-Layer Foundation Establishment Cultivator. Solely judging by its power, it was enough to rival Tier Three Top-Grade magical artifacts. Lu Yuanshan possessed more than one such powerful artifact. The Qingyin Flying Sword just now was at least on the Tier Three Lower Grade level. Lu Hongniang and Xu Yang were less surprised, knowing Lu Yuanshan was Cyan Mountain Sect’s Sect Leader, and also the offspring of a Golden Core Ancestor, with Cyan Mountain Sect formerly being a Golden Core Sect, inheriting some deep foundations. It’s no wonder Lu Yuanshan could possess such formidable artifacts. But Lu Yuanshan’s rapid growth in strength was astonishing. Last meeting at Cyan Mountain Sect was only a few years ago? At that time, this Sect Leader Lu was merely a Ninth-Layer Qi Cultivation Cultivator, and within years, he had grown to the point where he could instantly slay two Third-Layer Foundation Establishment Cultivators. What an extraordinary Cyan Mountain Sect. This Sect Leader Lu is no ordinary person, his future truly limitless. "Who is this person?" Compared to Xu Yang and Lu Hongniang, Lin Hanshu was unfamiliar with Lu Yuanshan, meeting Lu Yuanshan for the first time, very curious about his identity. "This senior is from Cyan Mountain Sect, the current Sect Leader of Cyan Mountain Sect..." Xu Yang briefly introduced, moving toward Lu Yuanshan: "Much thanks to Sect Leader Lu for his timely assistance..." Lu Hongniang and Lin Hanshu followed closely behind. Lu Yuanshan at this moment greeted Xu Yang and the three of them with a simple word, and sorted through Sun He and Jin Hall’s storage bags, casually cleaning up the battlefield, using the Fireball Technique to destroy Sun He and Jin Hall’s bodies. This battle seemed easy, yet Lu Yuanshan was very aware that apart from having a superior strength, he mainly relied on the power of the Taiyi Celestial Ruins Sword. Sun He and Jin Hall’s strength were not low, both had reached the peak of the Third-Layer Foundation Establishment, about to step into the Fourth-Layer Foundation Establishment. If not for their spiritual artifact tier being relatively low, at most Tier Two High-Grade spiritual artifacts, then it would not have been easy to achieve such a quick and effortless victory. But the fierce competition in the cultivation realm often manifests here. A superior tier magical artifact, combined with a cultivator’s cultivation technique and spirit root attribute, can significantly enhance the cultivator’s combat capacity. It can even enable defeating enemies across tiers. If the Taiyi Celestial Ruins Sword continues to be intensely cultivated, its power as a lifebound flying sword will certainly become increasingly formidable. With the improvement of strength, continuously nurturing and strengthening the Taiyi Celestial Ruins Sword will steadily increase its combat power. Future cultivation of the Taiyi Celestial Ruins Sword Technique calls for more effort. After these thoughts emerged in his mind, Lu Yuanshan calmed his emotions and focused on Xu Yang and the other three. "Junior from Shenxiao Palace Lin Hanshu, greets the senior." Seeing Lu Yuanshan free, looking over at them, Lin Hanshu proactively greeted, his expression very respectful. In terms of age, Lin Hanshu and Lu Yuanshan are similar in age, calling Lu Yuanshan a fellow cultivator is completely appropriate. Yet at the moment, Lin Hanshu considers himself junior, referring to Lu Yuanshan as senior, which is lowering his status, representing acknowledgment of Lu Yuanshan’s strength and status.
