King of Assassins

Chapter 771: On the sword

Views:

In the hearts of many cultivators, Lord of the North Star has always been a peerless powerful being, on par with Lord of the Earth, Yuan Qinglian, and the Ten Suffering Bodhisattvas.

There are more than thirty earthly immortal-level great celestial masters under the seat of the North Star Lord, and his strength is huge. In fact, his influence in the Yuantian Realm far exceeds that of the Earth Yuan Dao Lord and Yuan Qinglian.

These two think too highly of themselves and rarely interfere in the affairs of the lower classes. Therefore, if we really talk about power and influence, it is the Lord of the North Star and the Bodhisattva of Ten Sufferings who have more power and influence.

The North Star Lord attacked Gao Xuan in public, and the two sides turned against each other and fought. The North Star Lord mobilized billions of stars in the nine heavens.

The display of divine power shocked all the practitioners.

Although the North Star Lord failed to kill Gao Xuan, Shi Ku, who had joined forces with the North Star Lord, was thrown into the Nirvana realm by Gao Xuan and it was obvious that he would not survive.

At this time everyone was waiting for Lord Polaris to rise up and fight back, but in the end, Lord Polaris knelt down on the spot.

The kneeling of Lord Polaris made it completely incomprehensible and even difficult for many cultivators watching the battle to accept.

As a peerless strong man, it's fine if he can't defeat the enemy, but he can't surrender in battle. The behavior of Lord Polaris really made everyone despise him.

Yuan Qinglian was a little stunned. Lord Polaris was going to lose, but doing this was too shameful!

Taoist Master Diyuan also had a strange expression on his face.

The two most powerful men could not understand Lord Polaris's behavior, nor could they accept it.

Jin Xiang on the battlefield looked coldly at Lord Polaris who was kneeling on the ground. She really wanted to smash this guy's head with one punch.

But Gao Xuan was still here, so it was not her turn to mess around. She also wanted to see how Gao Xuan would deal with this shameless villain.

Gao Xuan looked at Lord Polaris who was kneeling on the ground offering his treasure, and he was also a little surprised.

Even if Polaris-kun cannot win, he can still run away. There is no need to kneel down and surrender.

According to Polaris Lord, he was regarded as the reincarnation of Purple Star Emperor. This explanation barely makes sense.

Gao Xuan didn't know whether Lord Polaris really saw something or was just looking for a reason to surrender.

But none of this matters.

Gao Xuan casually picked up the North Star Divine Order presented by the North Star Lord with both hands. The appearance of this divine weapon was like a jade ruler. Holding it in his hand, he could naturally sense the power of the endless stars above the nine heavens.

There is no imprint of the North Star Lord's soul on this jade ruler, so it is obvious that this is not his own magic weapon.

Gao Xuan suddenly realized that the North Star Divine Order was actually a divine weapon bestowed by the Purple Star Emperor to the North Star Lord.

He tried to activate the Purple Star Power, and sure enough, the jade ruler in his hand immediately responded to the Purple Star Power. The jade ruler vibrated silently, and the stars above the nine heavens twinkled.

The North Star Divine Order can be said to be a heavenly weapon, and it is even higher in rank than a heavenly weapon.

Gao Xuan could not sense the power limit of the North Star Divine Order. This was the most powerful artifact he had ever encountered in his life.

However, this artifact also has a huge limitation: it requires great strength to activate the North Star Divine Order.

The stronger your power, the more powerful the North Star Divine Order will be. On the contrary, the North Star Divine Order will not even be as useful as ordinary earth tools.

The North Star Lord also relied on many demon kings as his foundation to create such a big momentum. Without the help of many demon kings, his North Star God Array would not be so powerful.

The artifact is a good artifact, but the North Star Lord is not a good star Lord.

Gao Xuan glanced at Polaris Lord who was kneeling on one knee. Polaris Lord also felt Gao Xuan's gaze. He lowered his head deeply, looking as if he was waiting for anything to happen to him.

He said calmly: "You got the wrong person."

Lord Polaris looked up in astonishment. Just as he was about to explain, Gao Xuan swung the dark blue jade ruler in his hand and hit him on the head.

Endless star power burst out at the same time, and the body of the North Star Lord was smashed to pieces on the spot.

Although the North Star Lord is in human form, his body is made up of endless star power.

The shattered body exploded into countless tiny fragments of star power, like broken dark blue ice.

Lord Polaris, whose body was broken, was not dead yet. After his body was shattered, his true spirit and soul were revealed.

The true form of the North Star Lord's soul is an octagonal deep blue star with shining rays. The light of this star flickers unsteadily, and it keeps flying in all directions, but it is bound by an invisible force and cannot leave an area of three feet in radius.

It was the first time that Gao Xuan had seen such a spirit. It was obvious that this Lord of the North Star was not really a human.

He swept the jade ruler in his hand again, and the deep blue star was smashed to pieces.

The scattered starlight was collected by the jade ruler.

The soul of the North Star Lord is the purest star power, which is very consistent with the North Star Divine Order.

Gao Xuan shattered all of the North Star Lord's spirituality and consciousness, leaving only his pure star power source.

The North Star Divine Order absorbed all of the North Star Lord's original power, but there was no change.

This amount of power was too weak for the North Star Divine Order. It was so weak that it was insignificant and could not affect the state of the North Star Divine Order itself.

Gao Xuan took the jade ruler and weighed it, considering whether to keep it.

Again, the North Star Divine Order is an extremely powerful artifact, even surpassing the existence of celestial artifacts.

Because it is too powerful, Gao Xuan is not sure he can refine this treasure.

A particularly critical issue is that the North Star Divine Order belongs to the Purple Star Emperor.

Although Gao Xuan was confident, he knew his own weight. He could still fight against a celestial being, but he was far inferior to a Golden Immortal like Ziwei Xingdi.

What would I say if the Purple Star Emperor came knocking on my door with his treasure

But it would be such a waste to just throw it away.

Gao Xuan is also in harmony with the Purple Star, through which he can easily control the North Star Divine Order.

He was not greedy for the power of the North Star Divine Order, but he was very curious about the power of the stars in the sky and the levels of the Daluo Golden Immortal realm.

Through the North Star Divine Order, Gao Xuan can get a glimpse of the mysteries of the highest realm.

Gao Xuan weighed the pros and cons and decided to leave the North Star Divine Order behind. He didn't dare to leave it in his sea of consciousness, as it would be a big trouble if it suddenly lost control.

Put it in the Juntian Star God Wheel. Since the star power is compatible, it is not difficult to hide the North Star God Order.

Gao Xuan solved the problem of the North Star Divine Order, and he looked at Jin Xiang opposite him.

He asked curiously, "Do you want to avenge your master?"

Jin Xiang clenched her fists, her eyes flickering with divine light, but in the end she silently lowered her eyes, avoiding looking at Gao Xuan.

"I am no match for you. If you do anything, you will only end up dying."

Jin Xiang calmly clasped his hands together and said to Gao Xuan, "Master Dao, let's say goodbye now."

Gao Xuan smiled and said, "You know when to advance and when to retreat, and you understand the general trend. You are indeed the reincarnation of a powerful being."

He waved his sleeves and said, "I am really looking forward to meeting you again. I won't see you off today."

Jin Xiang nodded, she took two steps back, and when she turned around again, the person had disappeared.

Many powerful men from the Ten Suffering Sect had complicated expressions. Jin Xiang actually left like this.

What should they do

The Bodhisattva of Ten Sufferings said that he was sent to the realm of Nirvana, and everyone knew that the Bodhisattva of Ten Sufferings was dead.

They are all disciples of the Ten Sufferings Sect. Whether out of the relationship between master and disciple or to maintain the order of the sect, they should seek revenge on Gao Xuan.

However, the combined forces of the Bodhisattvas of Ten Sufferings and the Lord of the North Star were both defeated by Gao Xuan, and Jin Xiang retreated without a fight, so it would be a waste for them to go up against him.

The Bodhisattva of Ten Sufferings has ten great disciples, and there are also four great Dharma protectors, seven Dharma protectors, and so on in the temple.

There are more than thirty earthly immortals in the entire Ten Sufferings Sect, so the Ten Sufferings Sect has always been the number one Buddhist sect in this world.

At this moment, there were several earthly immortals in Taiyi Palace, including Yuan Xiang and Kong Xiang. These earthly immortals looked at each other, and no one wanted to go up and die.

From Gao Xuan's methods, we know that he will not be polite to anyone who dares to fight with him.

Lord Polaris knelt down in surrender humbly, but was still beaten to death by Gao Xuan.

Such a powerful and unrivaled warrior died in an extremely humiliating way.

But Yuan Xiang and the others couldn't just turn around and leave. After all, the Ten Suffering Sect was a huge sect, and now that the Ten Suffering Bodhisattvas were in trouble, they had to hold up their appearance and couldn't just collapse like that.

For a moment, Yuanxiang, Kongxiang and other great earthly immortals were in a dilemma.

In fact, at this time, no one cared about Yuanxiang, Kongxiang and others.

The vast majority of practitioners have not yet truly come to their senses.

The Lord of the North Star and the Bodhisattva of Ten Sufferings were killed by Gao Xuan. Moreover, Gao Xuan acted nonchalantly from beginning to end, without any effort at all.

Judging from the scene, Gao Xuan completely crushed the two peerless earthly immortals.

For most practitioners, the North Star Lord and the Bodhisattva of Ten Sufferings are both unattainable and peerless powerful beings, and the pillars supporting the Yuantian Realm.

Their existence represents the order of Zhongzhou and the most powerful force in Zhongzhou.

As a result, the two strong men died just like that.

Even though many cultivators are dissatisfied with these two, it will be difficult for them to accept this reality.

Many cultivators are thinking about one question: Is Gao Xuan going to become the master of Zhongzhou from now on

Gao Xuan is so vicious and cruel. What should they do if he becomes the lord of Zhongzhou

Many earthly immortals were thinking a lot at this moment, and the more they thought, the more confused and uneasy they became. Many earthly immortals looked at Yuan Qinglian and Di Yuan Daojun.

At this critical moment, only these two people can turn the tide.

The disciples of the Qinglian Sword Sect also noticed the pleading looks from the surrounding cultivators.

A group of young disciples were a little uneasy. They didn't know how to deal with this situation.

Only Qin Feilian managed to remain calm, and she told her many disciples not to panic.

Yue Honglian looked at her master Yuan Qinglian with some worry. She was now afraid that Yuan Qinglian would challenge Gao Xuan.

A quarter of an hour ago, Yue Honglian still firmly believed that her master was the best in the world and no one could defeat him.

After witnessing the battle between Gao Xuan, the North Star Lord and the Bodhisattva of Ten Sufferings, Yue Honglian's firm determination was shattered.

No matter how powerful Yuan Qinglian is, he can never be stronger than the North Star Lord and the Ten Suffering Bodhisattvas combined.

Moreover, the Lord of the North Star mobilized the power of dozens of demon kings. That mighty power was enough to overturn the Yuantian Realm.

Such divine power was easily broken by Gao Xuan. Yue Honglian wondered who else in the world could defeat Gao Xuan

Anyway, she didn't want her master to fight Gao Xuan. Even if he won, what would happen? The consequences of losing were unbearable.

Most of Yuan Qinglian's other disciples also had the same idea, but no one dared to express it.

The more familiar you are with Yuan Qinglian, the more you know that she is stubborn. She does whatever she wants and never needs to be persuaded, and she hates being persuaded.

Yuan Qinglian sensed the concerned and worried gazes of many disciples, and she smiled: "What are you afraid of? The sky hasn't fallen yet."

She was really not afraid of Gao Xuan, and even had the urge to try.

However, this Gao Xuan was too strong. Her chances of winning were very low.

It has been a long time since Yuan Qinglian encountered such a strong man. He knew that his chances of winning were very low, but he became more motivated.

But she was not alone after all, the Qinglian Sword Sect also had tens of thousands of disciples. She challenged on a whim, but it was very likely that all the disciples would be buried with her.

Yuan Qinglian was not afraid of death, but because of his wealth, he had some concerns.

She herself knew that these worries were just her own worries. For a sword immortal, there was nothing else besides the sword.

The sword fairy only needs her sword, and other people or things are irrelevant. The more you think, the duller your sword becomes.

Yuan Qinglian knew that what she did was wrong, but she still had some feelings for these disciples and for the sect she founded.

Gao Xuan suddenly raised his voice and said, "I have heard for a long time that the swordsmanship of the Green Lotus Sword Master is unrivaled in the world. Since today is a discussion meeting, I would like to learn from the Sword Master's Green Lotus Sword. Please teach me, Sword Master."

Gao Xuan's sudden challenge to Yuan Qinglian also shocked everyone.

This man is not satisfied with killing the Lord of the North Star and the Bodhisattva of Ten Sufferings, he also wants to kill all the other most powerful people in the Yuantian Realm

Many cultivators looked at Yuan Qinglian. Among their eyes were curiosity, worry, concern, gloating, and so on.

Yuan Qinglian didn't pay attention to the cultivators around her. She said loudly, "I don't deserve your teachings. Master Daoist has extraordinary magical powers. I would like to learn from you."

Yuan Qinglian said as she stepped in front of Gao Xuan. She also passed through the space barrier of the North Star God Array and the Earth Book, but she did not use brute force like Jin Xiang, as if these two barriers did not exist at all.

Only by making light of heavy objects can Yuan Qinglian's peerless swordsmanship be demonstrated.

Gao Xuan also nodded in admiration. Just based on this skill, Yuan Qinglian was one level higher than the North Star Lord and the Ten Suffering Bodhisattvas.

Diyuan Daojun looked at the battlefield with a complicated expression. Logically speaking, he should fight together with Yuan Qinglian, so that they would have a chance of winning.

However, he knew Yuan Qinglian's character, and if he rashly helped, it would easily anger Yuan Qinglian.

Furthermore, Gao Xuan’s open challenge to Yuan Qinglian was in line with the rules of the Sanyuan Dharma Assembly.

As the host, Diyuan Daojun cannot nod and violate the rules he set.

Taoist Yu Ning, who was standing behind Taoist Di Yuan, couldn't help but ask, "Master, are we just going to let them do it like this?"

Di Yuan Dao Jun finally figured it out, and he said, "This is in accordance with the rules."

Taoist Yu Ning said with some worry: "If Gao Xuan wins, he will definitely challenge Master. What should we do then?"

From Taoist Yu Ning's perspective, even though her master is the strongest, he is probably no match for Gao Xuan.

After all, the power Gao Xuan had just displayed was too terrifying. Polaris Lord and the Ten Suffering Bodhisattvas were simply vulnerable in front of Gao Xuan.

Even though her master had the Book of Earth, he had no chance of winning against Gao Xuan.

Di Yuan Dao Jun said calmly: "Gao Xuan wants to challenge me, so I will accept the challenge. What else can I do?"

Taoist Yu Ning hesitated to speak. She really wanted to ask her master what to do if she lost, but she just couldn't say it.

Taoist Di Yuan knew what Taoist Yuning wanted to say, and he said softly, "At my level, how could I be afraid of destruction and death? If Gao Xuan has this ability, it means that it is the law of heaven, and I deserve this death."

Taoist Yu Ning said anxiously: "Master is the backbone of Yuan Tianjie. If anything happens to you, what will happen to the sentient beings in Yuan Tianjie?"

This is not Taoist Yu Ning flattering. It has always been Taoist Diyuan who has protected Zhongzhou with the Book of Earth and established the order in Zhongzhou.

Although the North Star Lord and the Ten Sufferings Temple are powerful, they have a huge influence on Zhongzhou.

However, all bottom lines are determined by the Earthly Dao Lord, who is the foundation of order in this world.

It is precisely because of the protection of Diyuan Daojun that the cultivators in Zhongzhou can flourish and prosper.

Without Di Yuan Dao Jun, Zhongzhou would surely fall into chaos, and the order of the Yuantian Realm would inevitably collapse.

For all living beings in the Yuantian Realm, this is the biggest disaster.

Taoist Di Yuan shook his head slightly: "Life and death are determined by fate. If I am to face the calamity, other living beings will also have their own fate. Although we are strong, we cannot control the impermanence of fate."

He sighed softly and said, "The Yuantian Realm has maintained order for tens of millions of years, and it is time to change the world."

Di Yuan Dao Jun was very calm and peaceful. He believed in the natural way of heaven. He regarded all uncontrollable changes as the impermanence of fate and the result of the natural evolution of heaven.

Since this is destiny, why bother struggling. There is no need to ruin your own conscience and go against your nature to do things you don't want to do.

After Diyuan Daojun chatted with his disciple for a few words, he seemed to have gained some understanding and his mood finally calmed down.

Taoist Yu Ning didn't expect that after a few words of persuasion, the master became more determined in his thoughts. She was also helpless, and now she could only hope that Yuan Qinglian could suppress Gao Xuan with her sword.

In the middle of that independent world, Gao Xuan stretched out his hand and drew out the Hongyi sword from his waist. His fingers gently wiped the Mingche sword.

"This sword has accompanied me in battle for many years, and I have also learned a little about the way of the sword. It is a great honor to be able to compete with the Sword Master today and discuss the way of the sword to verify what I have learned."

Gao Xuan was quite polite to Yuan Qinglian. The sword intent of this peerless sword immortal who was the reincarnation of the sword lotus was so pure and high that he had never seen it in his life.

If his innate Hunyuan Dao body was not complete, he would not be able to withstand more than ten moves under this sword.

Now that he has the innate Hunyuan Taoist body, he is finally qualified to compete with his opponent in swordsmanship.

Yuan Qinglian glanced at the Hongyi Sword in Gao Xuan's hand. The power contained in this sword was like a river in the sky, vast and endless.

As for the sword itself, it is neither sharp nor flexible, and can be said to be a failure.

However, this sword should not be underestimated simply because of its boundless power.

A green lotus blossomed in Yuan Qinglian's bright eyes, and in her hand there appeared a long sword emitting a bright green light.

As soon as this sword came out, the entire world was covered with a layer of bright green light.

Even Gao Xuan, who was standing opposite, had a layer of green light on his body and face. In the depths of his deep dragon pupils, a green lotus bud was emerging.

The Yuan Qinglian sword did not move, but the sword intent had silently broken through layer after layer of barriers and entered Gao Xuan's soul.

"Good swordsmanship."

Gao Xuan praised loudly, and the Hongyi sword in his hand slightly shook, and the water-colored sword light swept over like a river in the sky.

In an instant, the water-colored sword light had submerged the entire world.

The many cultivators who were watching the battle in the Taiyi Palace felt as if they were being swept away and submerged by the mighty river of heaven.

In an instant, the concentration of many cultivators was completely taken away by the water-colored sword light.
