Batian Martial Soul

Chapter 14716 The Third Foundation

When Ling Xiao reappeared, a crimson sword light that swept across the entire arena suddenly slashed out, fierce and unparalleled!

laugh!

The heads of the top experts of the Holy Temple standing at the forefront flew off simultaneously, and their mangled bodies crashed to the ground.

Just as Ling Xiao was about to continue his slaughter, a terrifying pressure as vast as an abyss suddenly swept out from the depths of the Sword Hall, crashing down on him like Mount Tai!

boom!

Ling Xiao was so shocked by the pressure that he was thrown backward, taking dozens of steps until he was in front of Jiang Liuyun and the Dark Gold Mirror Spirit before he could barely steady himself.

At the entrance of the Sword Hall, an old man in a green robe walked out slowly. He was tall and straight, and the Guixu Sword Intent around him was so solid that it seemed to drip water.

The person who arrived was none other than Mu Yin, who had completely reshaped his physical body and emerged from seclusion in perfect order!

The Dark Gold Mirror Spirit watched Mu Yin slowly approach, then turned to Jiang Liuyun beside her, its tone cold and solemn: "I know you don't want to be enemies with the Sword Star Sanctuary."

But remember this: if this brat dies at Mu Yin's hands today, you will surely die, and the entire Sword Star Holy Hall will be utterly razed to the ground, leaving not a blade of grass alive.

Jiang Liuyun shivered, his face full of helplessness and bitterness. He could only slowly stand up and walk to Ling Xiao's side.

In his mad state, Ling Xiao had become oblivious to his own family and friends. Sensing someone approaching, he didn't hesitate and swung his sword at Jiang Liuyun!

Jiang Liuyun sighed softly and gently placed his hand on Ling Xiao's shoulder.

The seemingly casual press contained the power to suppress eternity, forcibly suppressing the rampaging demonic bloodline within Ling Xiao's body.

Although the power of his bloodline had not completely subsided, it had temporarily calmed his madness, allowing him to regain his composure for a moment.

Jiang Liuyun raised his eyes and looked coldly at Mu Yin not far away.

Mu Yin paused, his expression turning solemn, and slowly spoke: "You two are the pillars of my Sword Star Holy Hall, the foundation of our ancient heritage. According to common sense, you should be protecting the sect and slaying the enemy at this moment, shouldn't you?"

Jiang Liuyun rolled his eyes in annoyance, thinking to himself: These people still can't grasp the situation, they can't even see the balance of power when they're about to die.

He sighed helplessly, his tone cold and domineering: "Enough nonsense, I'm protecting this kid. If you want to touch him, you'll have to step over my dead body first!"

Before he finished speaking, he did not point directly at Mu Yin, but instead unleashed a jet-black sword aura from afar. The sword aura swept across the sky and slashed directly at the towering sword hall behind Mu Yin.

boom……!!!

A deafening roar tore through the clouds, and the main hall of the Sword Star Holy Hall, forged with celestial materials, engraved with ancient defensive array patterns, and constantly reinforced by the power of the sect's protection, crumbled inch by inch under the residual force of this sword energy.

The remaining spiritual light of the array outside the hall was also annihilated, instantly turning into flying ash and rubble, leaving not even a single section of ruins.

The remaining powerful members of the Holy Temple present were all terrified, their faces ashen white...

Is this terrifying power, capable of annihilating sects and holy temples with a mere flick of the wrist, truly that of the legendary founding ancestor? This power far surpasses their understanding of the peak of the Silent Realm!

Mu Yin's pupils also shrank suddenly, his face filled with horror, and his heart sank.

He never expected that the first patriarch he had awakened by exhausting the sect's resources would be so powerful!

The residual force of a single sword strike destroyed the core of the Holy Temple, the very foundation of the Holy Land that even his full power could hardly shake. Let alone one of him, even if ten of him joined forces, it would be absolutely impossible for them to do so!

His face was ashen, and his eyes were bloodshot as he demanded sharply, "Why are you protecting him?!"

This questioning is full of resentment and bewilderment.

Jiang Liuyun and the Dark Gold Mirror are both treasures of the Sword Star Holy Hall, sealed for thousands of years. He would never have opened them easily if the sect had not been on the verge of destruction and had no other choice.

In the end, however, both of these ultimate trump cards turned against them, standing entirely on the enemy's side and risking their lives to protect Ling Xiao!

"If I had known this would happen, even if the sect had been destroyed, I would never have unsealed you!" Mu Yin gritted his teeth, filled with deep regret.

He didn't regret fighting Ling Xiao to the death, but rather regretted shooting himself in the foot by awakening two terrifying beings who were completely out of control, especially Jiang Liuyun, whose strength had long exceeded his control.

Hatred and ruthlessness surged within him, and Mu Yin immediately made a desperate, all-or-nothing decision.

With his own cultivation level alone, he had no chance of killing Ling Xiao in front of Jiang Liuyun. If he wanted to turn the tide, he had to use the last hidden trump card of the Sword Star Holy Hall.

He still had two of the sect's secrets left, and he refused to believe that the remaining trump cards would fall into Ling Xiao's hands!

Thinking of this, Mu Yin suddenly opened his palm, pressed his five fingers downwards, and chanted obscure and difficult-to-understand ancient incantations.

Buzz...!!

Beneath the ruins of the Sword Palace, an extremely dazzling and holy pillar of light burst forth from the ground, soaring straight into the sky. Its golden light was vast and its holy radiance filled the heavens, illuminating the entire blood-soaked battlefield with a bright light. Its oppressive power far surpassed any previous foundation.

Everyone present looked up at once, their hearts leaping into their throats.

This is the third most important secret weapon of the Sword Star Sanctuary, and also its final trump card!

But with two key figures turning against them in quick succession, everyone was gripped by endless fear...

If this last trump card is still on Ling Xiao's side, then the Sword Star Holy Hall will only face destruction today!

Jiang Liuyun also looked up at the pillar of light. At first, there was still some doubt in his eyes, but the next moment, his expression changed drastically and his pupils contracted sharply. Without saying a word, he grabbed Ling Xiao and pulled him behind him. He gathered his strength in his right arm and his fist, wrapped in the power of death, slammed into the sky!

Just as his fist burst forth, a terrifying sword light, condensed to the extreme, shot out from the depths of the pillar of light. It was incomparably holy and carried a pressure that transcended the laws of the Annihilation Realm, and slashed straight down!

boom!!!

The deafening roar of fist and sword colliding tore through the sky. Jiang Liuyun's expression changed, and he immediately led Ling Xiao in a rapid retreat.

Wherever the two figures passed, the void shattered and vanished, turning into a pitch-black void. They retreated thousands of feet before barely managing to stabilize themselves.

The crowd was horrified, staring intently at the pillar of light. However, the pillar was shrouded in holy light and was completely obscured, making it impossible to discern what was hidden within it.

The dark gold mirror beside it also frowned, its gaze towards the pillar of light filled with confusion and solemnity.

In the distance, Jiang Liuyun slowly released his hand that was protecting Ling Xiao and looked down at his fist... The surface of his fist was red and there were cracks under the skin, indicating that he had suffered a hidden loss in the collision just now.

On the other side, Mu Yin witnessed the entire scene, his face so dark it could drip water, his heart filled with shock and doubt. He never expected that Jiang Liuyun's physical body would be so strong as to withstand the sudden attack of this pillar of light, suffering only minor injuries!

Jiang Liuyun stared intently at the holy pillar of light in the sky, his expression unusually solemn. He said, word by word, "Heh, quite impressive. I didn't expect you to have even obtained this kind of power."

He turned to look at Mu Yin, his eyes icy and chilling: "This power... originates from beyond the realm."

The words “outside the boundary” resounded like a thunderclap on the spot!

Mu Yin trembled violently, staring intently at Jiang Liuyun, and exclaimed in a hoarse voice, "You actually know about the existence of the outer realm!" (End of this chapter)
