Terran Guardian - Chapter 4189

Chapter 4164: Not a single member of the Broken River Sword Sect will be spared!

“Sect Master Shen—” Ji

Juechen’s expression changed, and just as he was about to speak, he saw Shen Changqing make his move.

The latter’s palm descended, unleashing a surge of powerful blood energy, a palm aura that materialized and crushed the heavens, seemingly engulfing the entire Broken River Sword Sect.

The deadly threat horrified the many cultivators of the Broken River Sword Sect.

In that instant,

Ji Juechen disregarded his shock and anger, immediately unleashing his full power. The illusory image of the Nine Directions Inner Universe supported the heavens and earth, and an unparalleled Dharma Image was born. A celestial sword was summoned, its domineering sword energy slashing out and colliding with the descending palm aura.

The next moment, the sword

energy dissipated.

The celestial sword wailed.

Then, in Ji Juechen’s shocked gaze, it shattered inch by inch.

“Impossible!!”

He exclaimed in horror.

This celestial sword was a treasure he had refined for many years, a fifth-grade innate imperial weapon.

Despite being suppressed by the Heavenly Dao rules, the power of the Innate Emperor Weapon had greatly diminished, but its inherent quality remained unshaken.

Now,

Shen Changqing shattered a fifth-grade Innate Emperor Weapon with a single palm strike, shocking Ji Juechen.

The opponent’s strength terrified him.

At this moment,

Ji Juechen regretted agreeing to the Great Luo Immortal Court’s proposal to join forces against the Seven Profound Dao Sect.

However, it was too late now.

Shen Changqing clearly had no intention of giving up.

Therefore,

the Broken River Sword Sect had no choice but to fight.

“All cultivators of the Broken River Sword Sect, heed my command! Slay this fiend to defend our sect!” Ji Juechen

roared, stepping into the void, immediately mobilizing the entire sect’s power to directly suppress Shen Changqing.

Even if the opponent’s physical body had reached sainthood, so what? Human strength has its limits; once the opponent’s power was exhausted, he would be at their mercy.

The Broken River Sword Sect was a top-tier power in the Star Ruins Immortal Domain; its sect’s foundation was beyond question.

The sect alone boasts hundreds of Immortal Emperor realm experts.

Such a force, placed in this era of dramatic change, is not to be underestimated.

Upon receiving the order,

the cultivators of the Broken River Sword Sect reacted swiftly, launching a coordinated attack on Shen Changqing.

At the same time,

Ji Juechen reached out and grabbed at the void. Divine light shot into the sky from within the sect’s forbidden area, and an ancient divine sword, sealed for countless years, revived, which he seized in his hand.

“Shen Changqing, I know you have achieved physical sainthood, but so what?

My Broken River Sword Sect is ultimately not comparable to the likes of the Emperor Luan Demon Court. This is the Heavenly Star Sword, an ultimate divine weapon forged by our sect’s ancient saints over millions of years.

No matter how strong your physical body is, you can never withstand the sharpness of an ultimate divine weapon!”

With the Heavenly Star Sword in hand, Ji Juechen’s confidence soared, and his gaze towards Shen Changqing held a hint of contempt.

A supreme divine weapon!

Comparable to a seventh-grade innate imperial weapon!

In this era, it is undoubtedly an unparalleled divine weapon.

Even if one achieves physical sainthood, so what?

In Ji Juechen’s view, the opponent cannot withstand the sharpness of the Heavenly Star Sword.

In that instant,

Ji Juechen made his move. The

Heavenly Star Sword’s sharpness, sealed for countless years, was now fully revealed. The unparalleled sword light evolved into billions, transforming into a sky-covering sword net that covered Shen Changqing. From

all directions!

The power of the Heavenly Star Sword was present, almost completely cutting off all of Shen Changqing’s escape routes, forcing him to confront the might of the supreme divine weapon head-on.

In response

, Shen Changqing’s expression remained unchanged. He flipped his right hand, and the Nine Star Mace appeared. Looking at the billions of sword lights that were bombarding him, he simply waved his hand, and nine illusory star rivers appeared, crashing down like a world-destroying torrent.

Rumble!!

The void collapsed, and all the sword beams dissipated before they could even hold on for a breath.

Seeing the Nine Star Mace descend with the power of the Nine Star Rivers, Ji Juechen, disregarding his shock, directly met it with his Heavenly Star Sword.

“Boom—”

The mace and sword collided, a resounding clang penetrating to the very soul echoing. The ancient divine sword, its lineage unknown for countless years, shattered inch by inch before Ji Juechen’s horrified eyes.

Simultaneously

, the unstoppable force continued to crush.

Hands!

Arms!

Even half a torso—

under such absolute power, half of the Broken River Sword Sect Master’s body was shattered, blood mingling with his internal organs and splattering into the void.

“Pfft!”

Ji Juechen coughed up blood, his body falling from mid-air.

“Die!”

Shen Changqing struck again with the mace. Ji Juechen’s face was filled with terror; he wanted to beg for mercy, but it was too late. His vision was completely filled with the mace.

Finally—

a deafening roar resounded.

Ji Juechen’s body exploded completely, all life force and soul annihilated, leaving no trace.

Having slain Ji Juechen, Shen Changqing’s actions didn’t stop. With a slight thought, he sheathed the Nine-Star Mace, and simultaneously, with a flick of his sleeve, the Immortal-Slaying Sword Formation appeared.

Twelve Immortal-Slaying Swords descended into the void, a world-destroying killing array engulfing the Broken River Sword Sect.

As a top power in the Star Ruins Immortal Domain, the Broken River Sword Sect’s mountain range stretched for tens of millions of miles, inhabited by countless cultivators and even ferocious beasts.

But it was useless.

Under the Immortal-Slaying Sword Formation, the fate of all living beings was sealed.

“You want to destroy my Broken River Sword Sect’s legacy? I will not let you have your way!!!”

A Celestial Emperor, his eyes bloodshot, directly burned his essence and soul, pushing his power to its limit, and charged towards Shen Changqing.

Now, the opponent understood that the tide had turned.

Only a desperate gamble

could possibly secure a glimmer of hope for the sect.

Unfortunately…

Faced with such a desperate gamble from an Immortal Emperor, Shen Changqing’s expression remained unchanged. He unleashed a single punch, instantly killing his opponent.

Without the threat of an Extreme Dao Divine Weapon, the desperate struggles of other Immortal Emperors were insignificant in his eyes.

The physical body of a Fifth-Rank Innate Emperor Weapon was no joke.

Even if he stood still, his opponent wouldn’t have the chance to break through his defenses.

The only way the Broken River Sword Sect could possibly harm Shen Changqing was by borrowing the power of an Extreme Dao Divine Weapon.

Unfortunately,

no matter how strong the Heavenly Star Sword was, it was still far inferior to the Nine Star Mace.

Now that the Heavenly Star Sword was destroyed, the Broken River Sword Sect had no chance of turning the tide.

Thus,

the annihilation of the Broken River Sword Sect was inevitable.

Under the Immortal Extinction Sword Formation, the cultivators of the Broken River Sword Sect didn’t even have a chance to escape.

After all, even under the suppression of the Heavenly Dao rules, the Immortal Extinction Sword Formation couldn’t unleash its full power, but it was still a truly top-tier killing formation among Immortal Emperors.

With Shen Changqing personally in charge, even the powerful figures from the Immortal Emperor’s Stele would perish. While

the Broken River Sword Sect possessed many powerful members, none were qualified to break the Immortal Extinction Sword Formation.

Under these circumstances,

the Broken River Sword Sect’s defeat was inevitable.

While Shen Changqing was attacking the Broken River Sword Sect, other forces outside also noticed the commotion and looked towards the sect’s location.

When they saw the terrifying, sky-covering killing formation, their expressions changed drastically.

“Who dares to attack the Broken River Sword Sect!”

“Such a killing formation… even a top-tier Immortal Emperor would likely find it difficult to survive!”

“First, the Emperor Phoenix Demon Court was destroyed, and the Emperor’s Lord bled; now the Broken River Sword Sect is under attack. Could it be that the Profound Heaven Sword Master’s actions are truly so swift?!”

Many cultivators immediately thought of Shen Changqing.

After all, although the Broken River Sword Sect and other forces had secretly planned to attack the Seven Profound Dao Sect, such a secret could not be kept hidden forever.

There was no other way.

There are no secrets that stay hidden forever.

Moreover, the movements of the three major powers were considerable, so the news spread like wildfire.

As a top power in the Star Ruins Immortal Domain, few dared to oppose the Broken River Sword Sect.

Considering the recent events involving the Emperor Luan Demon Court, it was difficult for other cultivators not to connect the matter to Shen Changqing.

Given his ability to kill Emperor Zhao and wipe out many of the Emperor Luan Demon Court’s top experts, his current attack on the Broken River Sword Sect wasn’t entirely surprising.

A Celestial Emperor attempted to probe the Broken River Sword Sect’s interior, but the moment his divine sense touched the sword formation, a terrifying killing aura suddenly descended, severing his divine sense.

The man groaned, feeling a splitting headache, and only after a long while did he manage to recover.

Looking back towards the Broken River Sword Sect, the Celestial Emperor’s face was filled with horror.

“Such a powerful formation!”

he thought to himself in shock.

He had only probed with his divine sense, yet he was immediately struck back by the power of the formation, which filled him with dread.

However,

in that instant, this Immortal Emperor also glimpsed the scene at the Broken River Sword Sect.

Mountains of corpses and seas of blood!

Severed limbs!

It was clear what kind of situation the Broken River Sword Sect was facing.

“The Broken River Sword Sect is finished!”

This was the only thought in the Immortal Emperor’s mind. He dared not probe any further, fearing that he might provoke an unapproachable being and bring about his own annihilation.

Half a day later,

all the killing had dissipated.

The killing formation that had covered the entire Broken River Sword Sect had also vanished.

Seeing this,

the other cultivators who had been secretly coveting the sect dared to slowly reveal themselves.

When they arrived at the Broken River Sword Sect, they saw that the once-powerful sect had been completely reduced to ruins. Mountains had collapsed, and many immortal palaces were reduced to rubble.

Blood stained the earth, and corpses and remains were everywhere.

No matter how far they spread their divine senses, they couldn’t find a single living being in the Broken River Sword Sect.

At the former main peak of the sect, some cultivators saw scattered fragments of divine weapons, and their expressions changed again.

“Those are fragments of the Heavenly Star Sword!”

“The Broken River Sword Sect seems truly finished; even its ancient, supreme divine weapon has been shattered!”

“There are many forces in the world capable of destroying the Broken River Sword Sect, but to be able to do it so quickly, and with the intention of destroying it, is probably only the Seven Profound Dao Sect left!”

“First there was the Emperor Luan Demon Court, then the Broken River Sword Sect, shouldn’t it be the Great Luo Immortal Court next—”

Many cultivators gasped, their faces filled with shock that lingered for a long time.

They had vaguely guessed that the Broken River Sword Sect would be destroyed.

But when they actually saw it so thoroughly annihilated, they couldn’t help but feel horrified.

How long had it been?

Less than a day.

A top-tier force with an ancient heritage had been completely wiped out.

After a long while…

A Celestial Emperor said in a deep voice, “Now that the Broken River Sword Sect has been destroyed, the Great Luo Celestial Court is likely doomed as well!”

Upon hearing this, many cultivators exchanged subtle glances, but no one dared to refute him.

Was the Great Luo Celestial Court strong?

Needless to say.

Among the three major powers, the Great Luo Celestial Court’s strength was roughly equal to that of the Broken River Sword Sect; to put it grandly, it might only slightly surpass the Broken River

Sword Sect. After all, the Great Luo Celestial Court controlled vast territories, and many forces nominally submitted to it.

If it were to mobilize all its forces, the Broken River Sword Sect would naturally be far superior.

But the problem was…

even if the Great Luo Celestial Court intervened, it had no chance of destroying the Broken River Sword Sect.

At least—

to completely annihilate the Broken River Sword Sect in less than a day, leaving no survivors, was absolutely impossible. If

a powerhouse of this caliber could destroy the Broken River Sword Sect, then destroying the Great Luo Celestial Court would be no problem at all.

If the latter had no other trump cards, its fate was already sealed.

However,

whether the Great Luo Immortal Court was destroyed or not was of little concern to them.

For the cultivators present, the allure of the Broken River Sword Sect was far greater.

Soon,

a cultivator took the lead, directly seizing a fragment of an Extreme Dao Divine Weapon before turning and leaving.

Seeing this, other cultivators also joined in, vying for the fragments of Extreme Dao Divine Weapons, some even fighting over them.

After all, the materials used to forge Extreme Dao Divine Weapons were top-tier, and fragments of such treasures were not to be underestimated.

Moreover

, even more cultivators began searching for the remaining sect resources after the Broken River Sword Sect’s destruction.

After all, the Broken River Sword Sect had been passed down for so many years, and its resources were undoubtedly vast. Even if Shen Changqing was incredibly strong, it was impossible for him to plunder the entire Broken River Sword Sect in such a short time.

He could at most take some top-tier cultivation resources; the rest might not even be of interest to him.

But the problem was,

the resources that Shen Changqing disdained were not to be ignored by the other cultivators.

Not to mention that the Broken River Sword Sect had once produced a Saint-level expert, possessing countless cultivation inheritances. Any one of these would be an immense opportunity in their hands.

Therefore,

the battle inevitably erupted

, adding more corpses to the ruins of the Broken River Sword Sect.

On the other side,

before other forces could even process the news of the Emperor Luan Demon Court’s severe damage and near collapse, news of the Broken River Sword Sect’s annihilation arrived in quick succession.

The successive arrival of messages from the two major forces shook the entire Star Ruins Immortal Domain.

At the same time

, on the Great Luo Immortal Court’s side, Emperor Si Yuting’s face was ashen as he looked at the continuous stream of messages, a sense of horror rising within him.

“The Broken River Sword Sect has been destroyed!”

He stared at the cultivators delivering the message below, unable to recover for a long time.

As for the officials in the court below, they all fell silent, clearly caught off guard by the sudden news.

How long had it been!

In less than two days, both the Imperial Phoenix Demon Court and the Broken River Sword Sect met such an end.

How could such news not be shocking?

Anyone with eyes to see could see that with the Broken River Sword Sect destroyed, Shen Changqing’s next target would definitely be the Great Luo Immortal Court.
