After disposing of the two bodies, Jiang Chengxuan quickly vanished from the scene.

Not long after.

A young man in white arrived at the location.

Sensing the residual fluctuations in the air, his expression subtly changed.

He immediately returned to the city and, taking no chances, activated the city’s protective array.

Some time later.

Within the Eternal Sword Sect’s camp, the Fiery Sword Emperor discovered he could no longer contact the Yin-Yang Killers.

His expression darkened at this realization.

Initially suspecting betrayal of the duo, his concern escalated when a report came in stating that the protective array around a certain mortal city had been fully activated.

It became clear to him that the Yin-Yang Killers’ mission had likely failed, sparking a surge of anger and frustration within him.

“Useless fools!” he cursed under his breath.

However, before he could dwell on this failure, another elder reported that one of their sect’s outposts to the north had been attacked.

The defensive array was breached, and several Dharma Form stage cultivators were slain.

This news was significantly more shocking and severe than the failure of the Yin-Yang Killers’ mission.

Losing hired help was an insignificant matter.

Even if their mission was successful, the Fiery Sword Emperor would still consider getting rid of them.

However, their outpost had been destroyed and several Void Returning cultivators had died. This was a rather serious matter.

One had to know that such outposts were protected by Level 7 arrays, which could only be breached by array masters or someone of the Seethrough stage within a short period.

However, if a Seethrough stage cultivator had indeed attacked, it was impossible that fellow Seethrough stage cultivators like themselves would not sense it.

At the very least, it was impossible for them to do such a thing without alerting others.

Likewise, the possibility of an array master being responsible seemed slim.

Array masters were extremely rare in super sects like theirs.

They also had their own important missions.

It was impossible for them to be easily sent to such a frontline.

Once they fell, it would be a loss that many treasures could not make up for.

So.

In the Fiery Sword Emperor’s opinion, both possibilities were unlikely.

But this raised another question.

If the perpetrator wasn’t a Seethrough stage powerhouse nor a master of arrays, then who could it possibly be?

Surely, the outpost wouldn’t crumble on its own.

A few days later.

Another piece of news was sent to the Fiery Sword Emperor’s desk.

Another outpost of the Eternal Sword Sect had been uprooted nearby,

This news made the Fiery Sword Emperor’s face darken.

If he hadn’t realized by now that someone was targeting their sect specifically, it would speak volumes of his naivety.

“Any useful leads?” The Fiery Sword Emperor inquired, turning to an elder before him.

The elder shook his head.

“The other party’s actions are covert and meticulous.

At a glance, they’ve left behind no discernible traces…

unless…”

“Unless we invite a Dao Integration Sage to wield his time-reversal capabilities to unveil the other party’s identity, right?”

The Fiery Sword Emperor looked at the elder and shook his head.

“In this war, we already have a tacit understanding. The highest combat power is the Seethrough stage. The Dao Integration Sage will not participate.”

“Are we to merely stand by and watch then, letting this perpetrator run rampant?”

“Far from it.”

The Fiery Sword Emperor’s eyes flashed with coldness.

“I shall personally oversee one of our outposts in the shadows.

I’m eager to see who dares to so brazenly target the Eternal Sword Sect.”

A few days later.

While the Fiery Sword Emperor was guarding an outpost, in the next moment, an urgent message came.

It said that the Haoran Sect had launched a frontal attack on the Eternal Sword Sect, hoping that the Fiery Sword Emperor would return immediately to take charge of the situation.

Sure enough.

In this war at the frontline, the Fiery Sword Emperor was not the only Seethrough stage cultivator on the Eternal Sword Sect’s side.

However, the one who truly had the authority to command and was the strongest was still him, the Fiery Sword Emperor.

Should the Haoran Sect deploy Seethrough stage forces, the Eternal Sword

Sect’s other cultivators of the same realm might well find themselves outmatched.

“Damnit!”

The Fiery Sword Emperor angrily smashed the stone table in front of him.

Grasping the messenger talisman, he stood abruptly.

“Issue my order, immediately summon Junior Brother Bei Shan to take my place here.

I refuse to believe they’d dare to act so boldly with Junior Brother Bei Shan present.”

With that declaration, he transformed into a streak of light, racing towards the frontline.

Yet, in the brief gap he left, a shadowy figure emerged nearby.

He looked in the direction where the Fiery Sword Emperor disappeared, but he didn’t make a move immediately. Instead, he concealed himself again, as if he was waiting for something.

Indeed.

Not long after the Fiery Sword Emperor departed, he unexpectedly returned to the scene.

His cold gaze swept across the surroundings.

Making sure that there was indeed no one around, his figure disappeared again.

However, Jiang Chengxuan still did not appear.

This was because he could clearly sense a hint of danger lurking around him. It was not until some time had passed that Jiang Chengxuan truly appeared. At this moment, it would probably take some time for that Junior Brother Bei Shan to arrive.

This amount of time was enough for him to do many things.

With a gesture, a colossal halberd, as large as a mountain, materialized in his hand.

There was a rumble.

He launched it towards the protective array below with tremendous force.

At the same time, the Universal Breaking array Key on his body suddenly flashed.

The huge halberd landed in the outpost as if it was not hindered at all.

Rumble!

A massive cloud of dust billowed into the air as two Void Returning cultivators guarding the outpost watched in horror as their bodies disintegrated under the formidable force, ultimately vanishing into nothingness.

Swoosh!

Swiftly, Jiang Chengxuan’s figure disappeared from the skies above the outpost.

Shortly after his departure, a furious roar echoed through the area,

“Who dares destroy an Eternal Sword Sect outpost and kill its cultivators? Show yourself!”

Boom! Boom! Boom!

In an instant, an overwhelming and terrifying power burst forth from a thin and short man.

However, there was no one around.

A howling wind blew, and he was the only one standing there alone.

Back at the frontline battlefield, when the Fiery Sword Emperor received the bad news from Junior Brother Bei Shan, he nearly spat blood in frustration. Despite their careful planning, they had been outmaneuvered.

Feeling fooled, his angry gaze turned to Elder Yuan Feng of the Haoran Sect, accusingly saying,

“Yuan Feng, what despicable methods has your Haoran Sect resorted to?”

At this moment, Elder Yuan Feng had more or less heard some news.

This made him happy, but at the same time, he was also a little curious. Who exactly had such a powerful ability to make the Eternal Sword Sect suffer repeatedly?

However, there was no smile on his face when he faced the Fiery Sword Emperor. Instead, he revealed a cold expression.

“Fiery Sword, I know not of what you speak, but let me assure you, the Haoran Sect is not one to be falsely accused or slandered. Today, let me experience the famed Eternal Sword Art of your sect and see its extraordinary nature for myself.”

As his words fell, a pine tree materialized behind Elder Yuan Feng, sending out waves of green light that radiated in all directions from the tree as the center. The areas enveloped by this green glow transformed into pine forests in the blink of an eye.

This was his Seethrough domain, known as the Pine Domain.

Within it, all things could be turned into pine, serving as nourishment for him. This display caused the Fiery Sword Emperor’s expression to tighten instantly. The next moment, fierce flames soared behind him, with sword qi that was both fierce and blazing, darting and leaping about.

The sharp and domineering sword energy tore through the surrounding void, leaving behind visible scars in space, as if threatening to rupture it entirely. Boom! Boom! Boom!

A series of colossal explosions erupted, centering on the clash of their domains, wildly dispersing in every direction.

The Fiery Sword Emperor’s domain, brimming with fierce sword qi, seemed mighty and unyielding, but upon encountering Elder Yuan Feng’s Pine Domain, it was like mud flowing into the sea, utterly ineffective against the pine trees. Conversely, Elder Yuan Feng’s Pine Domain transformed into towering trees that took root within the Fiery Sword domain, continually compressing and squeezing its bounds.

Witnessing this, the Fiery Sword Emperor’s face grew increasingly grim.

“A venerable old Seethrough powerhouse indeed. Let’s see if your domain can still hold firm against my top-grade Spiritual Treasure.”

As he spoke, the sound of a sword cry, clear and resonant, echoed from the void.

Clang! Clang! Clang!

In an instant, a sword shadow, akin to a fire dragon, burst through the layers of green light, reaching the pine trees in a flash.

Whoosh!

Sensing the imminent threat, the pine trees began to sway violently, and amidst them, a figure appeared, holding a bamboo pole.

The figure gently smashed it at the ferocious sword qi fire dragon.

There was a thud.

The ferocious sword qi fire dragon that was brandishing its claws suddenly dimmed and let out a wail.
