Myriad Daos of the Heaven

Nangong Wanyu, the young lady of the Nangong Family, a supreme expert at the Middle-stage Nascent Soul Realm.

And now, she had become a prize for Jiang Jichen to show off!

This man was detestable, damnable, and utterly unforgivable.

Nangong Wanyu charged forward, a beautifully crafted short spike appearing in her hand.

It was an eerie blue, radiating a grim, cold light and covered in swirling, mystical patterns.

This was her personal Spiritual Artifact, and it was terrifying.

Clearly, she was ready to risk her life, to kill Jiang Jichen at all costs.

She wasn’t the only one. Qiao Hee also made his move.

A sword appeared in his hand!

Jiang Jichen recognized it. It was the same sword Qiao Hee had once offered to trade for the Bloodthirsty Bamboo—a Heavenly-level Spiritual Artifact, and an extraordinary one at that.

Qiao Hee sneered, "So you’ve got two little girls to help you. You think that can change anything? Hmph, they’ve just come here to die needlessly!"

As he spoke, he slashed out. A Sword Shadow cut through the air, aimed straight at the three of them.

Hua Xiaoling had a fiery temper. With her Purple Whip in hand and a cold glint in her pretty eyes, she cursed him sharply, "You old bastard, how dare you look down on women! I’m going to whip you across the face!"

Yee Youmeng said nothing, but her large machete was already humming, ready to strike at any moment.

But Jiang Jichen’s gaze wasn’t on Nangong Wanyu or Qiao Hee. It was fixed on the Swordsman from the Heavenly Sword Alliance.

He remained motionless, his sword held against his chest.

But Jiang Jichen knew that once this man drew his sword, it would be a world-shaking Ultimate Kill.

A single strike could decide life and death.

At this moment, the man’s Sword Thought had already locked onto him.

Fearless, Jiang Jichen stepped forward, shielding the two women behind him.

"Hua Girl, Little Youmeng, follow me and let’s kill these enemies!"

Standing before the two women, Jiang Jichen radiated a heroic, masculine aura and exuded a domineering presence.

This was not the first time Hua Xiaoling and Little Youmeng had coordinated with Jiang Jichen, so they understood his intent instantly.

Jiang Jichen would be at the front, responsible for blocking the vast majority of attacks. Yee Youmeng and Hua Xiaoling could launch surprise attacks from behind him or help block some of the blows.

The three of them coordinated with perfect, unspoken understanding.

At this moment, Jiang Jichen put away his Holy Sword. With only Sinking Mountain in hand, he charged forward to meet the attacks of Nangong Wanyu, Qiao Hee, and the other two Late-Stage Nascent Soul Realm Cultivators.

Jiang Jichen was now focused primarily on defense!

He pushed the power of his Golden Body Third Realm to its absolute limit, allowing him to withstand powerful attacks without being destroyed.

At the same time, he swung Sinking Mountain!

Smashing, sweeping, blocking, parrying, cleaving!

Using only the simplest Saber Momentum, he annihilated any Dao of Attack that came near.

Seven-Colored Perfect Realm Divine Soul!

Heart Hidden Heaven and Earth Realm!

With the two combined, he could easily track the trajectory of any attack.

He could even predict his opponents’ attacks before they were launched.

Brute force overcomes cleverness. Any attack that got close was swept away by Jiang Jichen’s Sinking Mountain.

He didn’t let a single attack get past him to threaten Hua Xiaoling and Yee Youmeng.

Even when some attacks were too strong, too fast, or too dense for Jiang Jichen to shatter at once, he would simply endure them with his own body.

After all, his physical body was so tough that these attacks only caused minor injuries.

But if they landed on Yee Youmeng or Hua Xiaoling, the consequences would be unimaginable.

"PFFT!"

Jiang Jichen took on the attacks of Nangong Wanyu, Qiao Hee, and the other two all by himself.

Of course, it came at a price. The wounds on his body grew more numerous and more severe.

However, by now they were in close quarters, their weapons clashing.

The eerie blue short spike in Nangong Wanyu’s hand transformed into a peerless ray of blue light, tearing open the void as it sliced toward Jiang Jichen.

It was incomparably sharp and unstoppable.

It moved with incredible speed, impossible to track.

But Jiang Jichen, relying solely on his instinct for danger, swept Sinking Mountain out in front of him.

"CLANG!"

The peerless blue ray struck Sinking Mountain.

Jiang Jichen’s body trembled, and his face grew even paler.

However, he didn’t retreat a single inch. The formidable power of his physical body erupted, and he forcibly withstood the impact of the blow.

But at that moment, that old devil Qiao Hee also swung out a world-shocking Sword Aura in a crisscrossing slash.

Sinking Mountain in Jiang Jichen’s hands struck out continuously, blocking the Sword Auras one after another.

Furthermore, the other two Late-Stage Nascent Soul Realm Cultivators attacked, both unleashing their Power of Ultimate Killing.

At this moment, Jiang Jichen was drawing all the fire.

Moreover, all four of them were focused solely on Jiang Jichen.

In their eyes, as long as they took care of Jiang Jichen, the two little girls were nothing to worry about.

After all, although the two women were extraordinary, they were complete unknowns. They couldn’t possibly be that strong.

In fact, very few people knew the names Hua Xiaoling and Yee Youmeng.

For over a year, the two of them had barely traveled the world, spending their time in secluded cultivation.

After emerging from the Secret Realm, they had been teleported to a place far from Yunshui City.

At that time, they still hadn’t fully absorbed everything they had gained from the Secret Realm.

So, they continued their secluded cultivation!

They had only reappeared recently, simultaneously asking around and searching for Jiang Jichen.

It might not have been easy for Jiang Jichen to get news of them.

But for them to get news of Jiang Jichen, it was as easy as flipping one’s palm.

In fact, they didn’t even need to ask around; they could hear about him everywhere.

The truth was, Jiang Jichen’s fame had exploded over the past two years. He had been involved in one earth-shattering event after another, and no matter where they went, they could hear people discussing him.

Therefore, Hua Xiaoling and Yee Youmeng had easily learned that Jiang Jichen was in Yunshui City.

However, by the time they arrived in Yunshui City, Jiang Jichen had already left, and they learned that he was certain to be heading to the Central State.

Thus, both of them showed up in Zhongtong Ancient Town to wait for him.

And so, the two women happened to run into each other there.

They had come to Zhongtong Ancient Town via a Teleportation Array, so after waiting here for nearly ten days, they finally saw Jiang Jichen.

Now, the attention of the four attackers, and even the Sword Thought of the Heavenly Sword Alliance’s Swordsman, was locked solely on Jiang Jichen.

However, in that instant, Jiang Jichen swung Sinking Mountain.

Suppression of the Eight Desolates!

The Eight Desolate Power had an almost negligible effect on Late-Stage Nascent Soul Realm experts.

But now, with Jiang Jichen so close to them, it had at least a slight effect.

And that slight effect was all Yee Youmeng and Hua Xiaoling needed to make their move.

A large machete suddenly flew out from behind Jiang Jichen, forcibly cleaved open the void, and struck one of the Late-Stage Nascent Soul Realm Cultivators.

Under normal circumstances, this Nascent Soul Realm Cultivator could have dodged.

But the power of Suppression of the Eight Desolates manifested at just the right moment, affecting him slightly.

"SPURT!"

The Late-Stage Nascent Soul Realm Cultivator was just a fraction of a second too slow. His body was brutally cleaved in two, and even his Spirit Infant was shattered by the terrifying Sword Qi from the large machete.

A Purple Whip also flew out from the side, suddenly striking at the other Late-Stage Nascent Soul Realm Cultivator.

Again, affected slightly by the power of Suppression of the Eight Desolates, his movements were a fraction too slow. The Purple Whip coiled around the Late-Stage Nascent Soul Realm Cultivator’s head and tore it off.

His Spirit Infant shot out, only to be smashed to pieces by the long Purple Whip.

Just like that, two Late-Stage Nascent Soul Realm Cultivators were slain through the coordinated efforts of the trio.

But the very instant Jiang Jichen unleashed Suppression of the Eight Desolates, the Swordsman from the Heavenly Sword Alliance, who had been standing motionless with his sword, finally moved.

SWISH!

A single Sword Aura shot to the sky, instantly multiplying into tens of thousands of rays that shot toward Jiang Jichen.

Just as these tens of thousands of Sword Auras were about to pierce Jiang Jichen, they suddenly fused back into one.

They formed a single, colossal Sword Aura that chopped down on Jiang Jichen.
