Primordial Era: Cultivation level equals the sum of the Jie Sect's total; the Three Pure Ones a

The lamp burner was clearly aware of this as well.

Breakthrough and consolidation at the peak of Hunyuan in a dozen breaths?

This is something that no known technique or opportunity could achieve!

This child must possess a secret that defies the heavens!

If we could obtain it...

The quasi-saintly shackles that have bound him for countless years may indeed... be broken!

"Xuan Du..."

The lamplighter's voice was hoarse, and the eerie light in his eyes almost materialized.

"Hand over the secret to your rapid breakthrough, and I... might spare your life."

He no longer concealed his purpose.

Was this an order from the Primordial Celestial Venerable? To teach Xuandu a lesson?

Screw that lesson!

Now, what he wants is the opportunity within Xuandu! That heaven-defying secret!

Upon hearing this, Xuan Du gently shook his head.

"Vice Master Ran Deng".

He slowly raised his right hand, and the light of the Qingmeng sword quietly flowed in his palm.

"You want my opportunity?"

"Can."

He paused slightly, his gaze suddenly turning sharp:

"Come and get it yourself!"

Before the words were even finished!

"Clang!"

A clear, resonant sword cry echoed throughout the North Sea!

Xuan Du's palm suddenly erupted with sword light, transforming into an ancient and chaotic longsword, which he held firmly in his hand!

Heaven-Slaying Sword!

The sword has no sharp edge, and its chaotic color flows, yet it possesses a sharp sword intent that can sever the heavenly path, soaring into the sky!

"This sword is named Heaven-Slaying Sword."

Xuan Du stood with his sword in hand, his green robes fluttering in the wind. He unleashed his full power at the peak of the Hunyuan realm!

"Today, let us use the blood of Vice Master Ran Deng... to ignite its power!"

"Arrogant!"

The lamp, enraged to the extreme, then burst into laughter.

"You mere peak Hunyuan cultivator dares to be so insolent before me!"

"Today I will show you what... the power of a Quasi-Saint truly is!"

Without another word, he clasped his hands together, and the coffin lamp hung above his head, its dim yellow flame surging wildly!

"The coffin...to guard the world!"

boom!

Within the flames, the illusory coffin solidified completely, crashing down and suppressing Xuandu from above!

The coffin was covered with dense Dao patterns of annihilation, exuding a chilling aura of death, as if it could bury the heavens and suppress all spirits!

This is the real killer move of the Burning Lamp!

The coffin, formed from the essence of the coffin lamp, was used to suppress the enemy, obliterate their soul, and ultimately reduce them to nothing more than withered bones within the coffin!

He did not use this move when dealing with the Xuan Turtle because he knew that the Xuan Turtle's defense was invincible and this move would be difficult to break through its shell.

But when it comes to dealing with Xuan Du... he has nothing left to hold back!

"Well done!"

Xuan Du's eyes flashed with a sharp light. Instead of retreating, he advanced and took a step forward!

The Heaven-Slaying Sword in his hand shone brightly, and facing the descending coffin of annihilation, he fiercely... unleashed a sword strike!

"Severing Heaven... Breaking Illusion!"

There are no fancy moves, no complicated variations.

There was only one pure and extremely sharp... chaotic sword light!

With this one sword strike... space was forcibly severed!

next moment.

The sword light and the coffin collided with a deafening roar!

"Thump!!!"

An indescribable roar exploded at the bottom of the North Sea!

The seawater evaporated instantly!

The permafrost on the seabed crumbled layer by layer, turning into dust!

Even the thick ice layer and chaotic air currents above were forcibly torn open, creating a huge gap that stretched for tens of thousands of miles!

A figure staggered backward, each step leaving deep cracks in the void.

His gray robe was tattered, his hair was disheveled, blood gushed from the corner of his mouth, and the flame of the coffin lamp flickered and dimmed by a third!

It is the lamp that is lit!

He suddenly looked up and stared at the opposite side.

Xuan Du stood holding his sword, his blue robes fluttering slightly, his face pale, and a trace of blood at the corner of his mouth.

But... he stood there, his figure as steady as Mount Tai.

The Heaven-Slaying Sword in his hand shimmered with clear light, its sword cries growing ever more melodious!

The first head-on confrontation.

The lamp-lighting...actually lost!

"You...you..."

Ran Deng pointed at Xuan Du, his finger trembling, his eyes filled with disbelief!

How is that possible?

He was at the peak of Quasi-Saint level for countless eons!

Xuan Du has only just broken through to the peak of the Primordial Golden Immortal realm, yet he is already so powerful.

At this moment, Xuandu stepped forward, the Heaven-Slaying Sword gleaming with clear light, exuding a chilling killing intent!

He wouldn't let Ran Deng get away with it; that guy's attack just now was completely unrestrained and aimed directly at his life.

He had originally planned to try to get the Burning Lamp to betray him and enter the Intercepting Sect, thereby increasing his own cultivation, techniques, and background.

It seems there's no need to keep it now.

Upon seeing this, Ran Deng was greatly alarmed. He had no doubt that if this sword were to fall, it would annihilate both body and soul, and shatter the true spirit!

What vice sect leader, what guest of Zixiao Palace, what peak quasi-saint...

Before this sword, all is in vain!

"Xuan Du! You dare kill me?"

"I am the Vice Leader of the Chan Sect! Appointed by the Primordial Sage himself!"

"If you harm me, you will completely break ties with the Chan Sect! The Primordial Sage will never let you off!"

Burning Lamp roared and shouted, trying to intimidate Xuandu with the prestige of a sage.

however.

Xuan Du spoke slowly, his voice indifferent:

"Vice Leader?"

"I'm going to kill you, the vice leader of the Chan Sect."

"If my esteemed Uncle-Master Yuanshi wishes to take revenge after your death..."

"My master's sword will surely cut through everything for me!"

Before the words were even finished!

"Buzz!!!"

The Heaven-Slaying Sword suddenly erupted with an unprecedentedly dazzling and clear light!

Chaotic Dao patterns flowed wildly on the sword, and an unparalleled sword intent that severed countless ages suddenly erupted!

"No!!!"

With eyes blazing with fury, he frantically urged the coffin lamp to light up!

The dim yellow flames shot into the sky, transforming into the last barrier protecting them!

At the same time, he mustered all his magical power and roared towards the direction of Kunlun Mountain:

"Primordial Sage! Save me!!!"

The sound wave pierced through the void, carrying the dying will of a quasi-saint peak, shaking the primordial world!

......

Kunlun Mountain, Yuxu Palace.

On the cloud bed, the Primordial Celestial Venerable's eyes were slightly closed, his sacred heart undisturbed.

suddenly.

His brow furrowed sharply!

"Um?"

Those eyes, brimming with the light of jade and immortality, suddenly opened, piercing through layers of palaces and instantly locking onto the direction of the North Sea!

Just a moment ago, he clearly sensed...

The light of the lamp is rapidly diminishing!

That desperate roar before death pierced through the void and entered the depths of his sacred heart!

"waste!"

The Heavenly Venerable of Primordial Beginning's face suddenly darkened!

He sent Randeng to teach Xuandu a lesson, to blunt his sharpness, and to disrupt his Daoist mind.

But now...

Not only did Ran Deng fail to succeed, he was driven to the brink of despair and even cried out for help in his dying moments.

This is utterly disgraceful to the Chan Sect! And it completely undermines the dignity of the Primordial Sage!

"Xuan Du..."

A fierce glint flashed in the eyes of the Primordial Celestial Venerable.

This kid actually dares to kill Ran Deng?

Randeng was the vice leader of the Chan Sect, a position of great prestige, and was personally appointed by Yuanshi Tianzun!

If he were truly killed by Xuandu in the North Sea...

Where is the dignity of the Chan Sect? Where is the face of the Primordial Beginning?

not to mention......

The roar that Ran Deng had just made had already alarmed many powerful beings in the primordial world.

At this moment, countless divine senses are secretly watching the North Sea.

If he stands idly by and lets Xuandu kill Randeng...

How would the myriad races of the primordial world view the Chan Sect? How would they view Yuanshi Tianzun?

Thinking of this, Yuanshi Tianzun could no longer remain calm.

He snorted coldly and flicked his sleeve!

"Buzz!!!"

An immense and unparalleled pressure from a sage erupted from the Jade Void Palace, traversing endless void and descending fiercely towards the North Sea!

He wanted to use the power of a sage to intimidate Xuandu and save Randeng!

As for how to explain this to Tongtian afterward...

That's a story for another time!

Right now, we absolutely cannot let Randeng die!
