Chapter 816: Power of the Emperor Sword

The fifteenth of each month was the day to offer sacrifice to the ancestors at the Hundred Lane Clan. Regardless of how much the Head Elder, Bai Lifeng was unwilling, he had to attend this ceremony.

And by seizing this opportunity, those other elders at the clan would for sure keep Bai Lifeng and report the various major matters that were happening within the clan. They would use this time to report matters that needed his council.

It was impossible for Bai Lifeng to completely put down this workload. Although he wanted to use his time differently, he must fulfill his duty.

“Elder, I heard the situation at the Aspiring Throne Mountain is starting to get bright. There is occasionally good news from our two Patriarchs from time to time. They are saying how it’s only a matter of a few days before the annihilation of the Qin Clan: at most it would happen within a month or two. Two Patriarchs asked me to ask you, Head Elder, would you be interested in heading to the Aspiring Throne Mountain?”

“What would I do by going to the Aspiring Throne Mountain? Could it be they don’t have enough manpower?” Bai Lifeng was not very interested. Now, he was fully concentrated on making a dash for the Supreme Dao Stage.

“Of course they have enough manpower,” Second Elder Bai Lixi said with a laugh. “Don’t forget Head Elder, the two Patriarchs once said that the Heavenly Emperor promised when we kill the Qin Clan, everyone gets their own share of the spoils. As long as you are one of the six allies, regardless of identity, social status, or the treasure, whoever gets their hands on it can have it.”

It was a massive attraction!

Instantly, Bai Lifeng became spirited as energetic light shone from his eyes. His hands that were holding him up on his chair rest could not refrain from trembling slightly. His chest went up and down and a brush of greed flashed across his face.

Being the old powerhouse at the Heavenly Emperor Mountain, the Heavenly Emperor Qin Clan was one of the two great trump cards that stood on equal ground with the Yun Clan. They also held a much higher regarded standing than the current Heavenly Emperor Gate Xin Clan.

With thousands of years of a foundation, certainly there would be many great goods inside the mountain gate. Bai Lifeng thought, “Besides those Supreme Dao elite warriors, how many are at the Peak of the Common Mysterious Stage? Ten years ago, in that battle where a young disciple of the Qin Clan went out to kill, he killed many elite warriors at the Exquisite Mysterious Boundary Stage. My Hundred Lane Clan also suffered great casualties. Fortunately, I was in solitary training and was absent. Or else, I would have turned into dust along with them. Currently, with the coming breach of the Aspiring Throne Mountain, it would be nice to pick up a few things.”

Being a sly old fox, how could Bai Lifeng not see through this beneficial situation?

Feeling moved, he narrowed his eyes. The attraction from the Qin Clan was enormous. The Qin Clan was always an ancient sect at the Heavenly Emperor Mountain. Once it was breached, certainly there would be a rich abundance of treasures.

Besides Supreme Dao elite warriors, how many could fight over elite warriors at the Peak of the Common Mysterious Stage? Bai Lifeng was confident that if he were to participate, surely he would gain a lot.

However, with the Supreme Dao Stage right before him, would it be worth his time? Clearly, he still must weigh the degree of seriousness.

“Certainly, it would not be me who gets the Supreme Dao Fruit. Yet, if I could seize a piece of Supreme Dao armor, this trip would not be in vain. By taking a step back, even if I am to seize a Supreme Dao weapon, I would have gained. To me, it would be meaningless if I could not even seize a Supreme Dao weapon.”

While he was lost in thought, a pile of noisy footsteps came at a rapid speed from outside. A messenger disciple walked in quickly and said, “Elders, there is a strange guy outside the mountain gate who wants to see the person in charge of our Hundred Lane Clan…”

“Strange guy, what strange guy?” Bai Lifeng waved his hand with unhappiness. “I will not, tell him to get lost.”

“This… Head Elder, that person said that if he could not see the person in charge, he will not hold back against our Hundred Lane Clan. Although that person’s words sounded humble, he was in fact impolite and arrogant.”

“How dare he!” Bai Lifeng slapped the table. “What did he look like?”

“He appeared expressionless and did not seem to be special,” the messenger disciple said with a stuttering tone.

At this moment, from outside the mountain gate, a leisurely yet unhurried voice gushed at them like the tide. His voice rippled through the air and slowly spread itself over the mountain gate of the Hundred Lane Clan.

“The person in charge of the Hundred Lane Clan, come out. Humph, don’t think that you have a strong defense around your sect. If your defense could match up with the Qin Clan or Yun Clan, I will turn around and leave without a word. However, your defense formation cannot even be compared to theirs. Do you think you can sleep peacefully by hiding inside it? Ha ha ha.”

In the beginning, this voice was slow and relaxed. Now, it sounded like boiled water that kept getting hotter and hotter. In the end, it was flaring up inside the mountain gate of the Hundred Lane Clan.

The imposing manner of the voice even awakened all disciples of the Hundred Lane Clan like a startled sparrow.

Everyone was struck with fear as if they were about to face a formidable enemy.

When the elders inside the clan heard this voice, all of them felt uneasy. As they exchanged glances with each other, all of them carried some doubt in their eyes and a few traces of fear that was not disguised well.

“Who’s he?” Bai Lifeng could not help but ask.

Each of the other elders shook their heads. Clearly, they were completely clueless.

“Boom!”

Just when they were looking at each other in dismay, there was a swaying motion inside the mountain gate. The cups on the table before them also shivered with the strike while many of them fell to the ground with a bang.

“The first one is only a warning. If you wish to test whether I have the skill, go ahead and try!”

This voice still sounded calm and unruffled in the midst of chaos. It did not sound harsh or outpouring, yet in the ears of these elders such as Bai Lifeng, they were incredibly afraid.

They could not even understand which monstrous devil they offended. Without a doubt, the strength of this person definitely surpassed everyone at the scene.

He would definitely have the power to impact their mountain gate formation.

Once the mountain gate formation was breached, it would be unpredictable of what kind of a strike the entire Hundred Lane Clan would bear.

“Head Elder, for this matter, we must report to the two Patriarchs,” one of the elders said instantly.

“Yes, we must tell the Patriarchs!”

Bai Lifeng said with an ashen face, “Patriarchs are at the Aspiring Throne Mountain and in an unknown situation. Even if we tell them now, distant water cannot quench present thirst!”

“Then it’s better for us to resist with force? I assume that the other party must have the power to be at the Supreme Dao Stage. Or else, he would not have been this arrogant.”

Bai Lifeng nodded. “We must inform the Patriarchs. The problem is how to delay this guy and wait for the Patriarchs to rush back!”

Once again, that voice from the outside sounded again, “Is there no response? Then you are telling me to impact the mountain gate formation of the Hundred Lane Clan. Don’t blame me, if I am to breach the mountain gate of the Hundred Lane Clan, nothing will be left alive within these walls!”

At the end of the sentence, each word seemed to be a vicious spell that rolled into the eardrums of everyone at the Hundred Lane Clan. It caused them to tremble with fear while emotions surged inside their hearts.

Outside the mountain gate of the Hundred Lane Clan, Qin Wushuang held a treasure sword full of overbearing manner. He already saw through the mountain gate of the Hundred Lane Clan to about seventy or eighty percent.

He was confident that for this level of mountain gate, it would not pose much of a resistance when he performed with this Supreme Dao weapon at the Ninth Calamity.

Even paramount totem elite warriors might not possess such a divine weapon at the Ninth Calamity Genuine Supreme Dao Stage. This was definitely a rare weapon.

Before, when Xuan Yuan Wei bestowed the Nirvana Heavenly Plow to Xin Tianwen, it already made him feel as if he possessed a treasure. That Nirvana Heavenly Plow only accompanied Xuan Yuan Wei to pass four calamities.

Within the boundary of the Genuine Supreme Dao Stage, the difference between the Fourth and Ninth Calamities were great.

Therefore, as Qin Wushuang held this Emperor Sword, perhaps he would not unleash its greatest power when fighting with powerful enemies. It would still be the most suitable when dealing with such an unmoving defense formation without the slightest flexibility.

The purple wings transformed at a rapid speed behind Qin Wushuang’s back. As the wings flapped, they directly transformed into a burst of purple light to the high skies.

He raised the Emperor Sword with his hand as if a Celestial being transcended to the world. Carried with emotionless judgmental power, he slashed casually before the first barrier.

As the sword light swayed, it emitted glistening golden lights.

“Ching!”

With a crisp loud sound, like a knife slicing through tofu, the first barrier was slashed and destroyed completely.

Without batting an eye, Qin Wushuang kept attacking the barriers one after the other. The golden lights shot out from the Emperor Sword as it criss-crossed through the air. The barrier kept falling as they were incapable of standing up against his attacks.

Such method of breaking through the formation caused each of the elite warriors inside the Hundred Lane Clan to be dumbstruck. Their hands and feet went numb as they completely lost their sense of mind.

They thought that even if the other party was powerful, it would not be that easy to break the defenses. At least, he would need to take some time and some effort.

The Heavenly Emperor Gate was powerful, right? Before the Qin Clan’s mountain formation, it stood unbreakable for ten years. This caused them to be blindly confident of their own mountain protecting formation.

However, they never thought about how the formation of the Hundred Lane Clan could match up to the Qin Clan’s formation?

If it were the Heavenly Emperor Gate’s mountain protection formation, Qin Wushuang felt that most likely he would not be able to break it even if he had the Heavenly Emperor Sword, a Genuine Supreme Dao weapon at the Ninth Calamity.

Even if he were to break through it by force, most likely it would take him three or five years with his current stage.

However, the Hundred Lane Clan was after all, a third-rate existence among the Heavenly Emperor Eight Gate. Not to mention comparing it to the three old powerhouses, most likely even the Heavenly Punishing Villa and the Sound of Thunder Sect would be much more powerful than these three houses.

“For the last two attacks, would one hour be enough?” Qin Wushuang let out a laugh. “When I got here, you informed the two Supreme Dao elite warriors of the Hundred Lane Clan instantly. It would take them at least four hours to make time and return here. I believe that I would have enough time to annihilate your clan three times over within this time frame!”

Bai Lifeng breathed deeply. He knew that this time, the Hundred Lane Clan had met their most vicious enemy.

“Everyone, this person speaks the truth. By the time the two Patriarchs rush back, he will have had enough time to annihilate the clan three times over. Does anyone have a strategy to hold of this enemy?”

“This guy wanted to see the person in charge. Currently, you are the person in charge of the clan.”

Bai Lifeng gave a cold snort and coldly said as he looked around, “This way, you want me to go out to be the scapegoat, right?”

“Head Elder, I am afraid just you alone could not shoulder this great responsibility. How about all of us elders go out together. In the case of a conflict, we can flock together and catch him off guard…”

Bai Lifeng shook his head with a cold laugh. “Swarm around? When dealing with a Supreme Dao elite warrior, no matter how many martial artists beneath the Supreme Dao Stage you have, it would be useless!”
