Sword Sovereign of the Celestial Emperor

Boom boom boom...

This blurry and void-like Sword Aura was truly terrifying. Array formations turned directly into nothingness, white waves surged, and shattered stones flew, but the Sword Light's force remained unabated.

Splurt...

A burst of bloody light shot into the sky. Under this horrific Sword Light, Tuoba Wu's body split directly from the middle. In his eyes remained the expression before death, filled with shock.

Swoosh!

At this moment, a spatial fluctuation surged to Chu Ming's left, then it fled towards the distant area like flowing water, moving at a swift pace.

The fleeing person was extremely haggard, wearing a green robe, a trace of panic discernible on her face; it was Tuoba Rong'Er.

Splurt!

Chu Ming slashed out another sword, the void slightly rippled. This sword, like water flowing into the void, had no suspense, it directly killed Tuoba Rong'Er.

Chu Ming gently removed the storage rings from Tuoba Rong'Er and Tuoba Wu's fingers, and scanned the Spirit Stones within.

Chu Ming discovered that Tuoba Rong'Er was quite wealthy. In her storage ring, there were over seven hundred thousand Middle Grade Spirit Stones alone, and Lower Grade Spirit Stones were in the range of thirty to forty million.

Tuoba Wu, on the other hand, was relatively poor, with only over twenty thousand Middle Grade Spirit Stones, and about ten million Lower Grade Spirit Stones.

"What is this?"

Chu Ming took out a layer of white gauze from Tuoba Wu's storage ring, gently stroking it. The white gauze was incredibly soft, placed in the space, it was like nothing.

Chu Ming dripped a drop of blood on the white gauze, then spent half an hour refining it completely. Only then did he understand the effect of this white gauze.

This white gauze was called the Concealing Robe, it was an Earth Level High Tier Magical Treasure. Once draped over oneself, it could integrate the user with the space itself, unless a Great Power of Transcendence was present, it would be impossible to detect. It was an extremely strong life-preserving treasure.

Additionally, Chu Ming found a Sword Technique Secret Manual in Tuoba Wu's storage ring.

"Imperial Extreme Swordsmanship," it had a total of five moves. However, in Tuoba Wu's storage ring, only the formulas for two moves were present, these two moves were Flashing Splendor and Huo Yan Cracked Sun. As for the other three moves, there was no record.

"I must leave here!"

Chu Ming thought to himself. Tuoba Rong'Er and Tuoba Wu deserved to die, but once seen by others, they might inevitably link them to him. Therefore, he needed to change his flight direction.

Swoosh!

Chu Ming's body flashed, instead of flying directly to Sword Peak, he chose to circle to the left.

In no time, Chu Ming's figure disappeared from the original spot.

Splurt!

Mist shrouded the area, transforming into dragon and tiger shapes, blurring vision. A black-clad figure suddenly appeared halfway up Sword Peak, a crystalline sweat drop fell from his forehead, possessing astonishing beauty.

"Master underestimated the array of Sword Peak!"

In just half a day, Ye Mei had almost reached the top of Sword Peak, but at this moment, the surrounding arrays were terrifyingly strong. Some arrays, even with the use of the Calamity Pearl, required a few sticks of incense worth of time to break.

Swoosh!

Without pausing, Ye Mei continued to climb Sword Peak. Around her, the blue crystalline Calamity Pearl shimmered brilliantly, glowing with dazzling light, pushed to the extreme.

...

The time everyone had to comprehend within Sword Peak was only one month, half a month had already passed in the blink of an eye. By now, most of the swordsmen inside had already ascended to a height of two thousand meters on Sword Peak, passing halfway up the peak.

On a smooth rock in the southeastern part of Sword Peak, Chu Ming sat cross-legged, eyes closed, comprehending Slaughter Sword Intent.

In the dense atmosphere of Slaughter Sword Intent in this place, his Slaughter Sword Intent had already broken through to Tier Four as of yesterday.

At this moment, the arrays sprawling across Sword Peak were almost exclusively Third Level arrays. As for Second Level arrays, they no longer existed.

Whoosh!

Chu Ming opened his eyes, gazing towards the top of Sword Peak, where fog swirled, like a celestial realm.

"I truly want to see the view from the top of Sword Peak."

Chu Ming thought to himself.

Swoosh!

Chu Ming's body moved, transforming into a stream of light, continuing his ascent towards the top of Sword Peak.

Splurt!

After just flying a dozen meters, Chu Ming seemingly passed through a layer of glass, everything before him suddenly changed. He found himself amidst a sky full of Sword Light, he could even feel the sharpness on the Sword Light.

Swoosh!

With his right hand, he drew his sword, a blurry and void-like Sword Light burst from Chu Ming's Conjugate Sword.

Slaughter Sword Intent, erupted!

Immortal Sword Intent, erupted!

Splurt splurt splurt...

Everything around was completely destroyed, Chu Ming reappeared at his original location.

Step! Step! Step!

As Chu Ming was about to continue climbing, he heard footsteps. He turned to look, only to see a handsome man walking towards him, at a leisurely pace, but in an instant, he had reached Chu Ming's front.

Ye Chengtian!

Chu Ming squinted his eyes. Instead of minding him, his body moved, intending to continue ascending. However, a gust of strong wind came from in front, and a young man in a black robe appeared.

Swoosh! Swoosh! Swoosh!

In an instant, six figures appeared around him, surrounding him. Including Ye Chengtian, there were seven in total.

"What do you mean by this?"

Chu Ming squinted his eyes, asking indifferently. Among these seven, the strongest three were comparable to Tuoba Wu, while the rest were slightly weaker.

"Haha, what do I mean? Since Ye Mei thinks highly of you, I need to show her that you are nothing in front of me!"

Ye Chengtian's face was grim. He was the only one from the Ye Family among these seven people; the other six came from three different families, compensated with a substantial reward to assist him.

"Just you all?"

Chu Ming shook his head, placing his right hand lightly on the hilt of his Conjugate Sword, his white robe fluttered in the wind.

It's not that he underestimated these seven. Their combined strength was considerable. If they worked together, even Lin Xuan, who could seal a throat with one sword, could only lament. However, he was much stronger than Lin Xuan.

Before he broke through to the Ninth Layer of True Dao, he was confident he could defeat Lin Xuan within ten moves, let alone now.

"Arrogant! All together!"

Ye Chengtian, never to be underestimated like this, immediately roared in a low voice, the longsword in his hand charged with scorching fiery breath, slashing towards Chu Ming's chest.

"Die!"

Chu Ming's Conjugate Sword instantly unsheathed, a lightning-fast Sword Light flashed in front of everyone, blurry and void-like but extremely domineering!

Crack!

Ye Chengtian's Sword Light instantly fractured, a wound burst on his chest, red blood splattered.

"Impossible?!"

The remaining six faces instantly changed drastically. With just one move, Ye Chengtian was severely wounded.

"Attack together, I don't believe he can take on six of us alone!"

The black-robed youth standing in front of Chu Ming spoke vehemently.

As soon as the words fell, an icy Sword Light directly stabbed towards Chu Ming's left chest, and simultaneously, the others moved to attack.
