Two thousand years ago, a strand of sword light flashed across the nine heavens, tearing through the sky.
The world recovered, and martial arts began to revive.
Two thousand years later...
With a flash of light, countless sword energies, like a galaxy, streaked across the sky. The unparalleled sword energy emitted a terrifying sharpness, and the ten laws of the universe tore apart the stars and the moon at that moment.
In an instant, this entire star field was sliced apart.
Countless stars are collapsing and dissipating.
"ah……"
A shrill scream instantly resounded through the sky. A Saint Realm ancient expert was enveloped by Lin Xuan's unparalleled sword energy. His physical body was powerless to resist and was directly annihilated. Only his primordial spirit was left to escape, but it was penetrated by the Ten Directions Sword Intent evolved from the Ten Directions Law, causing him to scream madly.
Every hundred meters the primordial spirit flies away, it becomes more illusory.
The screams grew louder and louder, like the screams of a pig being slaughtered.
However, after ten breaths, it abruptly stopped. Immediately, an endless rain of blood poured down, filling the starry sky.
A sense of desolation filled the air.
Beneath the vast starry sky, countless people were stunned, looking incredulously at the star field of the holy war, their whole bodies trembling.
"My God, a saint has fallen."
"He was an ancient powerhouse who was killed with a single strike. Who was the attacker? It seems to be a disciple of our Beidou Holy Land."
"Holy crap, are you out of your mind?! This is a god of death who can slay a saint with a single strike! You actually think he's a disciple of our Beidou Holy Land? Do you think our Beidou Holy Land is powerful enough to unify the universe?!"
"It can't be a disciple; it must be a peerless expert hidden in our Beidou Holy Land."
"Hahaha... I never expected that my Beidou Holy Land would hide such an unparalleled powerhouse. He can kill a saint with a single strike. My Beidou Holy Land is bound to win this battle."
...
After a brief silence, a burst of excitement erupted.
Especially on the Beidou Holy Land side, everyone went crazy, discussing excitedly.
Everyone believed that Lin Xuan was a reclusive powerhouse from the Beidou Sacred Land, and even the higher-ups of the Beidou Sacred Land thought so.
However, there are exceptions.
For example, Yan Ping, Xu Ningshuang, and Li Jifeng, as well as some disciples of the Beidou Holy Land who knew Lin Xuan, were stunned at this moment, their eyes almost popping out of their sockets.
"My God, that...that's Junior Brother Lin Xuan..."
Yan Ping subconsciously swallowed and turned to look at Xu Ningshuang and Li Jifeng. He saw that Xu Ningshuang and Li Jifeng were equally astonished, their shock no less than Yan Ping's.
Others didn't know Lin Xuan, but they did.
However, they never expected that Lin Xuan would be so powerful, capable of slaying a Saint with a single strike—what incredible power that was!
"Junior Brother Lin, what kind of explanation is this? This is clearly Ancestor Lin..."
Li Jifeng said with a wry smile, "Do you really think he's some old monster who deliberately changed his appearance and hid his strength and identity to play the game of the mortal world?"
“Who knows, but I’d rather believe what you’re saying is true, otherwise… that would be too terrible.” Xu Ningshuang said in a low voice, her whole body trembling.
Yan Ping and Li Jifeng immediately fell silent.
That's right. If Lin Xuan really is an old monster who plays around in the mortal world, that's fine. But if he isn't, then Lin Xuan is too terrifying. At such a young age, he actually has the strength to slay a saint. This is simply going to turn the world upside down!
Holy blood filled the sky, like a torrential downpour.
On the vast battlefield of the starry sky, the atmosphere instantly changed. The Beidou Holy Land's side suddenly became incredibly spirited and their fighting spirit soared. On the other hand, the various alliance forces were clearly cowered, and their morale plummeted.
At this moment, Lin Xuan, the instigator of everything, had a gleam in his eyes and was overjoyed.
The moment he slew the Saint, a system notification sounded in his mind.
[Ding! Congratulations, host! You have slain a peak Saint-level Spirit Race member, gaining 1.2 million points of Luck, a wisp of the Ice Law's origin, and more...]
A series of system notifications rang in his mind, and the various rewards combined were enough to leave Lin Xuan speechless.
However, he couldn't care less about that now, because at that moment, a surge of powerful blood and soul energy flowed into his body like a mighty river, along with a flood of fragmented information and memories that rushed into his mind.
Boom... Rumble...
The life force and soul power of a saint—how terrifying! Under the surging power, it frantically washed over and tempered Lin Xuan's physical body and soul. At the same time, the vast fragments of memory directly pulled him into another world, transforming him into a saint of the Spirit Race, experiencing his life.
Lin Xuan felt his body undergoing a transformation and his soul being elevated.
His cultivation level was rapidly improving. After he had fully absorbed all the blood and spiritual power in his body, he directly advanced from the mid-stage of the third level of Sainthood to the late-stage of the third level of Sainthood.
Don't underestimate this small improvement in cultivation level; it's actually quite terrifying. After all, Lin Xuan's foundation is too profound, and his cultivation level is already at the third level of the Saint realm. Being able to improve by a small level is already an unexpected surprise.
"Not bad. One Saint at the peak of the first level has improved me so much." Lin Xuan nodded in satisfaction and muttered to himself, "Most importantly, it's this person's memory fragments that have given me profound insights. Of course... the most important thing is the system reward. I never expected that killing a Saint would yield such a generous reward."
If I could kill the other three, it would probably be enough for me to advance my cultivation level by one rank, and I might even be able to reach the fourth level of the Saint realm..."
As he spoke, an astonishing light suddenly flashed in Lin Xuan's eyes, and his gaze towards the other three ancient experts completely changed, as if he had seen three moving treasure mountains.
The next moment, Lin Xuan moved immediately and attacked again without hesitation.
He slew a Saint with a single strike without much emotional fluctuation, because he had only killed a Saint at the first level. With his current Saint level three cultivation, coupled with his unparalleled combat power and profound foundation, he could even fight against Saints at the fifth level or above.
It's nothing serious that we've only killed one Saint-level expert.
So, while everyone was shocked and astonished, he, the person involved, calmly made another move.
Of course, he was still somewhat excited, since if he killed these three ancient powerhouses, his cultivation level would very likely increase by one level, allowing him to enter the fourth level of the Saint realm.
Jingzhe raised his blade and slashed out again.
This time, his target is another ancient powerhouse, whose strength should have reached the second level of Sainthood.
Before coming, Lin Xuan had already used his spiritual eyes and divine vision to investigate.
Of the four ancient Saint Realm experts, the weakest was the one he had just killed, a Saint Level 1.
The strongest among them is the main attacker, who should have the cultivation level of a Saint at the third level, just like the Saint powerhouse from the Big Dipper Holy Land.
As for the other two, they were both at the second level of Sainthood cultivation.
Lin Xuan is currently targeting one of the Saint Level 2 experts.
