Skywind Ridge.

Before the grand array, Su Juesheng, his face filled with respect and joy, recounted his experience with the All-Encompassing Sword Sect.

“Peak Master Han, that Xia Mingtang is not as strong as he seems, not worth considering.”

Looking towards the fog in front of him, he declared loudly, “If I were to take action, I could kill him with a mere flick of my wrist.”

As his voice fell, the fog in front of him shook and suddenly converged into a three-foot-long sword.

The sword light flashed, slashing downwards towards his head.

Su Juesheng paused, then raised his hand to counter with his sword.

He had recognized that this sword was exactly the same as the one Xia Mingtang had used in the great hall of the All-Encompassing Sword Sect.

A thirty-foot sword light flew, bringing with it a roaring bellow.

With one sword strike, the surrounding Rolling Clouds surged.

Su Juesheng’s three-foot-long sword met the sword edge, his expression changing instantly, his eyes filled with horror.

This sword carried the power to destroy heaven and earth, slashing down directly from above, and he had no ability to resist at all.

It was the same sword strike, yet why could he not withstand it?

The biting cold of the sword edge was clearly intent on cleaving him in two.

Facing such a sword, all of Su Juesheng’s strength was futile.

Watching the sword edge bearing down, a trace of despair flashed across his face.

“Buzz—”

The thirty-foot sword edge vibrated, dissipating just as it was about to shatter Su Juesheng’s body.

From within the fog, Han Muye’s figure appeared.

“This sword is merely imbued with Path-Extinguishing Force, yet you already cannot withstand it. Xia Mingtang, borrowing the power of the All-Encompassing Sword Sect’s grand array, could even fight in the Prime Origin Realm. Do you really think you could kill him?”

Han Muye spoke calmly, his voice light.

Su Juesheng’s entire body shook, and he froze in place.

He was a partial cultivator, truly unaware of the depth that a sect could have.

If he were a cultivator of sects, he would never have thought he could easily defeat Xia Mingtang.

“Peak Master Han, I—”

Looking up at Han Muye, Su Juesheng’s face was complex, carrying a touch of shame.

He had thought he could perfectly complete the task that Han Muye entrusted to him, but unexpectedly, he had been stonewalled by Xia Mingtang of the All-Encompassing Sword Sect.

The other party had employed tricks, not truly fighting with full force.

Han Muye waved his hand, and within the surrounding mist, numerous black stone tablets emerged.

“No matter, only absolute strength can cut through all enemies.”

“Your talent in the Sword Dao is not too bad; there still is some potential to be fostered.”

…

Ten days.

Ten days later, the grand array atop Skywind Ridge suddenly shook and then stopped operating.

In the distance, those Elites from various sects who had been observing the array all showed signs of delight on their faces.

Clearly, the Grand Pantheon Stone atop Skywind Ridge was exhausted and truly could not hold any longer.

“Heh, the All-Encompassing Sword Sect has sealed its own fate; Moon-Encompassing Peak has indeed sought an honorable death.”

“Skywind Ridge managed to hold us off for so long, which is commendable. Giving those of Moon-Encompassing Peak a dignified way to die is also good.”

“Gentlemen, what are we waiting for?”

Within the Allied Army Camp, cries of high spirits arose.

They had been blocked by Skywind Ridge for several months, the All-Encompassing Sword Sect was right before their eyes yet they could not advance.

In Skywind Ridge, they had also lost many disciples of various sects.

This frustration, of course, needed to be countered.

Today, would be the day when everyone at Moon-Encompassing Peak perished!

Standing in front of the large tent, Shao Lin watched as figure after figure ran forth without needing any orders, his expression calm and placid.

By his side, the sect leader of the Blood Battle Spirit Sect, Xu Tang, looked solemn as he turned to Shao Lin, “Elder Shao, the summons from the Cloud Heaven Dao Sect has been issued, the various sects must cease fighting now. Today’s annihilation of Moon-Encompassing Peak, isn’t this a violation of the rules of the celestial battle?”

Are such rules meant to be broken?

On the Great Pantheon Plane, the celestial battle is a major event. Once the summons are issued, no side is allowed to engage in internal conflict—this is the iron law.

Hearing his words, a deep divine light shone in Shao Lin’s eyes.

“You’re right, once the summons is issued, the various sects cannot continue to fight, but hasn’t the summons not yet reached our hands?” he asked.

“Look, the All-Encompassing Sword Sect must have already received the summons but hasn’t sent anyone to Skywind Ridge.”

The All-Encompassing Sword Sect didn’t cease fighting either!

Xu Tang was stunned, then a wild joy appeared on his face.

“Haha, I understand now!” he exclaimed.

“The All-Encompassing Sword Sect wants to use us to annihilate Moon-Encompassing Peak.”

In his body, layers of blood color surfaced, and a fierce killing intent burst from his eyes.

Taking a step forward, the sound of roaring thunder echoed through the area.

“Today, my Blood Battle Spirit Sect will flatten Skywind Ridge!” he declared.

Watching Xu Tang lead the disciples of the Blood Battle Spirit Sect charging towards Skywind Ridge, Shao Lin’s expression remained unchanged, as he slowly opened his hand.

In his palm, a black token emitted a faint glow.

The battle summons for the war against heaven.

The summons from the Fearless Vajra Sect had already been delivered, but he, Shao Lin, had concealed it.

“Brother Yu, I’ve done all I could; now, where are the terms you from Heavenly Roaring Sect promised?” he turned his head and looked to the side.

There, a figure stepped forward.

Clad in black armor, his white hair was tied up with a golden band, tall and formidable with a resolute face.

If outsiders saw him, they would surely be astonished.

The Sect Master of the Heavenly Roaring Sect, Yu Cangshan.

This Path-Extinguishing Realm powerhouse had quietly arrived here.

Although the Heavenly Roaring Sect was decimated by the All-Encompassing Sword Sect, losing half of its masters, including the vice sect leader, Yu Cangshan, being a Path-Extinguishing Realm, was the topmost powerhouse within ten thousand li.

If this person had acted, Skywind Ridge would have been broken long ago.

“During the battle against heaven, Young Master He Chengyang from the Cloud Heaven Dao Gate will personally lead,” said Shao Lin.

“Just follow him,” he was instructed.

The black-armored Yu Cangshan lifted his hand and a black jade token fell into Shao Lin’s hand.

On this jade token, there was the character “He.”

Seeing the jade token in his hand, Shao Lin’s face showed surprise.

“Young Master He Chengyang, one of the three young masters from the Cloud Heaven Dao Gate, has already stepped into the Extreme Dao Realm,” he murmured in awe.

Within one hundred thousand li, just two people had entered the Primary Origin Realm, one was the gate master of the Cloud Heaven Dao Gate, and the other was a supreme elder from a sword sect.

The level below the Primary Origin Realm was the Extreme Dao Realm, with only a few within a hundred thousand li.

Being a young elite of a sect who had entered the Extreme Dao Realm, he would inevitably become a pillar of the sect in the future.

Following such a powerhouse, Shao Lin’s chances of survival in the battle against heaven were much higher, and he might even catch the eye of a powerhouse and soar to the heavens.

“Brother Yu, I don’t know what your Heavenly Roaring Sect desires, but I’m very satisfied with this deal,” Shao Lin laughed heartily, stowing away the jade token and turning to leave.

From the beginning, his sole intent was to benefit from the battle against heaven; as for attacking the All-Encompassing Sword Sect, he hadn’t really cared.

This was why he intentionally stayed here, delaying the time.

Leaving now would not violate the rules of the battle against heaven, as for Xu Tang and the others, what did it matter to him?

Watching Shao Lin leave, a hint of coldness flashed in Yu Cangshan’s eyes.

“He dares to dream of benefiting in the battle against heaven without even entering the Path-Extinguishing Realm. Truly foolish and delusional,” he sneered.

With a swift movement, he dashed forward.

Beyond him was Skywind Ridge, where Moon-Encompassing Peak’s forces were stationed.

At that moment, at Skywind Ridge, in front of Han Muye, Su Juesheng bowed low.

“After today, the battle here shall end,” he declared.

“Whether or not you can join Moon-Encompassing Peak depends on whether you have the ability,” Han Muye said, waving his hand as his gaze turned towards the distance.

Su Juesheng nodded and transformed directly into a streak of Flowing Light.

A buzz—

The Flowing Light vibrated, drawing the Origin energy from within a hundred li.

“Su Juesheng aspires to join Moon-Encompassing Peak, borrowing your heads momentarily—”
