The Mighty Heavenly Swion lit into six regions: the Eastern Regioern Region, Southern Region, Northern Regioral Region, and Swion. Among these, the tral Region y at the very core of the entire Mighty Heavenly Swion. It was the heart of the Mighty Heavenly Swion itself.

  As the core of the Mighty Heavenly Swion, the tral Region was where all the stro individuals resided, all the elders, the grand elder, the Sword Attendants, the Sword Master, and their families made their homes there.

  "Father, I've received the report from Heavenly Sword Vil. The formation is indeed broken—someone mao slip through, break the formation, and free that old guy Yun ghai without setting off any arms," Xuanyuan Wendao reported.

  In a hidden chamber, Xuanyuan Wendao and his father, Xuanyuaian, were deep in discussion.

  "Indeed, I uimated the people from the Illusory Demon Realm. They mao sneak into the Profound Sky ti and free Yun ghai without us deteg them," Xuanyuaian replied, listening to his son's report while caressing the sword on his p. "And not long ago, the Little Demon Empress and Yun ghai joined forces to get rid of that old Duke Ming."

  He spoke without lifting his head, his gaze fixed on the swe eager, as if he were gazing at a lover.

  "The spies sent the news?" Xuanyuan Wendao asked.

  "Yes, but there is something strange. Among the reports, there are vague rumors about a man pulling the strings behind the ses," Xuanyuaian replied with a light nod, not pausing in his gentle caress of the sword.

  Xuanyuan Wendao g his father, thinking, 'He's probably caressed that sword more than his own dong.'

  "Someone maniputing things behind the ses?" Xuanyuan Wendao asked, surprised. "That's problematic. Wouldn't that affect our pns? Father, what should we do?"

  "Haha, it doesn't matter who's pying tricks. In at most a decade, my thousand-year pn will e to fruition," Xuanyuaian finally raised his head, a fident smile tugging at the ers of his lips. "By then, it won't matter who stands in my way, I'll cut them down with my sword."

  To reach the Profound God Realm aka the Divine in Realm, Xuanyuaian had schemed for a thousand years. He extermihe Eternal Night Royal Family to seize the Heavenly Sin Divine Sword and plotted against the reinated prince of the Eternal Night Royal Family, who now lived as Fen Jue.

  Suddenly, at the heart of the tral Region, the very fabric of space seemed to shudder. It rippled like waves crashing against the shore, then twisted and torted as though it were being squeezed, reshaping itself like pliable fabrider an unseen force.

  "What is that?!" The disciples guarding the area were struck with terror as they withe strange phenomenon, their faces paling in fright.

  "Quickly, inform the Sword Master and the Elders!" one of them shouted, panig their voice.

  "I'll g—" One of the disciples started to run to inform them, but it was already too te.

  BOOOOOMMMM!

  *Explosion!!!!*

  The space colpsed, and in that instant, a monstrous detonatioed!

  The explosion engulfed a vast expanse of nd, sending a massive dust cloud billowing into the air. Immediately following the bst, beams of red light shot out from the pit, chaotid untrolble.

  The beams of red light swept across the area, tearing through the tall and majestic buildings as if they were nothing more than butter sliced by a ser knife!

  "What happened?!" Xuanyuan Wendao excimed, his body jolted by the massive explosion. The ground trembled violently, as if ahquake had struck, causing him to stumble and nearly fall.

  "!!!" Xuanyuaian shot up from his seat with a sudden burst of force. Without a moment's hesitatioransformed into a beam of light, rushing toward the source of the explosion.

  Swoosh! Swoosh! Swoosh!

  At the same time, the elders and Sword Attendants also transformed into beams of light, rushing toward the explosion site!

  When they arrived, they found a massive, scorched pit. The ground still smoldered, with the earth and rock melting like magma, sending plumes of steam rising into the air!

  This explosion had obliterated a quarter of the tral Region. Not even sidering the martial losses, the number of disciples who perished was incalcuble. Most importantly, many of the fallen were desdants and members of the Xuanyuan !

  "What... what happened here?! Who did this?!" Xuanyuan Guyun, the sed stro elder, whom most readers would fet about in a few moments, excimed, his eyes nearly popping out in a mix e and disbelief.

  Who had the guts and audacity to attack their Mighty Heavenly Swion?!

  "Sword Master, what... wh..." One of the elders stammered, looking at Xuanyuaian for answers.

  "Calm the fuck down!" Xuanyuaian snapped his face dark with fury. His eyes burned red as he stared at the pit. He struggled to maintain his posure, but even with his stroality, his awisted his expression.

  "Look!" one of them excimed, pointing to the ter of the pit. Instantly, all eyes turned in that dire.

  The spa front of them trembled violently as a massive crack tore open, stretg like the maw of a colossal beast, like a giant was about to emerge from it. And indeed, giants did emerge from the crack.

  A purple giant leaped from the space crack, and as it nded, it bellowed in ughter, "Hahaha! Bastards of the Mighty Heavenly Swion, yrandpa is here!"

  Moments ter, miants followed. A blue giant, a green giant, a red giant... over twenty giants in total emerged, h in the air. Their eyes were filled with a deep, murderous i as they locked their gazes onto the people of the Mighty Heavenly Swion.

  Finally, after the st giant emerged, an old figure slowly walked forward. He was the final oo step out from the cra the space. As he appeared, the giants moved aside, clearing a path for him to flow casually through. He stood in front of Xuanyuaian, his gaze log with the Sword Master. With a faint smile, he spoke, "Old bastard Xuanyuaian, it's been a long while. How are you doing?"

  "Who are you?!" One of the elders stepped forward, pointing at the old man with a furious expression. "How dare you attack my Mighty Heavenly Swion?!" He shouted angrily, "You are c death!"

  "You... you are the Illusory Demon Realm's Demon King, Yun ghai!" Xuanyuaian narrowed his eyes and said. It had been over 150 years since he st saw Yun ghai, and back then, he had appeared as a middle-aged man. His current appearance was so different that Xuanyuaian hadn't reized him immediately.

  "Indeed," Yun ghai nodded casually, and then his expression darkened. A deep killing i radiated from his entire being. "Today, I came to bathe yhty Heavenly Swion in blood!"

  If Duke Ming was the one who had plotted against him, his 's grand elders, and his friend, the Demon Emperor, then these people were the ones who had killed his friend and made him suffer for over 150 years!

  Every day, when he was sealed within that formation, he swore to take his revenge. He swore to rip apart all those who had put him there, to shred them into pieces!

  He didn't waste any more time with shit-talk. With a wave of his hand, he ordered, "Attack! Kill! Kill them all! Take revenge for the Demon Emperor ! Take revenge for our Illusory Demon Realm's hundred years of shame!" He transformed into a beam of light and charged directly toward Xuanyuaian.

  "Kill!" The twenty-five giants roared in unison, following him with an overwhelming surge of power.

  ...

  Meanwhile, in the Northern Region, the space twisted and Yun Wuji stepped out from a rift, with a beautiful woman in a red and bck dress following closely behind him.

  As they emerged, Yun Wuji g Huan Caiyi and asked, "Are you sure you want to follow me instead of taking revenge personally?"

  "You don't o tell me what to do," Huan Caiyi said, crossing her arms under her chest. Her voice was cold, unwavering. "Since I've decided to follow you, I've already made my siderations."

  "Fug tsundere! I thought she was just a cute kuudere, but who would've thought she's not only a kuudere but also a tsundere?" Yun Wuji shook his head, muttering under his breath.

  In this new era, yandere and kuudere girls are still popur, but tsundere girls have bee outdated. No one had the patience for them anymore. They were just too annoying, especially the violent ones.

  "I am not a fug tsundere!" Huan Caiyi's sharp hearing caught his words, and her cold eyes turned even colder as she gritted her teeth and said.

  She was also someone who had been influenced by weeb culture, so she kly what a tsundere was.

  "Yeah, yeah, sure... you're a kuudere and a tsundere," Yun Wuji muttered dismissively, waving his hand casually before flying off toward a spirit herb field.

  "Hmph!" Huan Caiyi's plump chest heaved from anger, she wao smack him to the ground, but she khat he was strohan her. In the end, she snorted and asked him, "What are we doing here? If you want to take their resources, why don't we wait until they are defeated to take them?"

  The tral Region was located at the heart of the Mighty Heavenly Swion, but iire region, the Northern Region was the most heavily guarded and, at the same time, the most important. Despite its small size, it held unparalleled significe.

  This was because the Northern Region served as the medie garden of the Mighty Heavenly Swion.

  That pce was where rge amounts of spirit pellets and medies were grown, made, and stockpiled. Every sialk or pellet was worth aire city; all were exceedingly rare and precious.

  All of these things were the result of the Mighty Heavenly Swion's ten thousand years of accumution. It was the most important resource stockpile that supported the Mighty Heavenly Swion.

  "Stht there! Who are you?!" Dozens of disciples guarding the spirit herbs shouted, uhing their swords!

  Thud! Thud! Thud!

  Yun Wuji gave them a casual gnce, and in an instant, all the disciples fell to the ground, their bodies cleaved i pieces.

  As if the disciples never existed, Yun Wuji ehe field and expio her, "If I don't make a move and secure this pce first, there's a very high ce that when they realize they 't escape the sect's destru, they'll send some of their disciples to take the most precious resources and run away."

  He waved his hand, st the herbs from the field, and added, "Fifty pert of the reason I ihis pce is to take their resources."

  "I didn't know you were such a money grubber," Huan Caiyi remarked, watg him harvest the herbs at an absurd speed. She couldn't help but feel speechless at his proficy. 'How mas has he plundered before?!' she wondered.

  "So the other half of the reason is to help us take revenge?"

  "Of course not," Yun Wuji replied casually. "Forty-nine pert is to take over this ti and trol it to collect more resources, and 1% is to take revenge for you." He used the Sky Poison Pearl to effortlessly up the spirit herb field and then flew off to the one.

  All the fields were spaced far apart from each other because spiritual herbs were delicate, and their proximity to one another could interfere with their growth, causing them to wither easily.

  "Greedy bastard! I knew you had an ulterior motive when you helped us!" Huan Caiyi snorted, her face cold, eyes filled with disdain.

  "Fug tsundere..." Yun Wuji muttered under his breath, not even gng at her, but he could feel her cold gaze drilling into the back of his head.

  "I said, I am not a fug tsundere!!!"
