These words drew cold snorts from the members of the Human and Chan sects. Taiqing Daoist gave Zhuangzi a wink, and Zhuangzi understood. He stepped forward and said, "Your defiance of Heaven is settled. Say no more. Today, we must capture you to uphold the Heavenly Order. If you surrender now, you may save your lives. Otherwise, you will meet your end on the Execution Platform." He was dragging the Heavenly Court into the mess. If this were to happen, and the Heavenly Court executed these people, Xuantian would probably disregard the Dao Ancestor's orders and drag Haotian down from the throne.
Upon hearing this, Liao Zhen and the others felt a chill in their hearts, knowing that today might not be a good day. Immediately, Liao Zhen activated his domain, and the area within a hundred miles around him was once again enveloped in the world of swords. At this moment, Liao Zhen held nothing back, circulating his magic power and unleashing the full potential of his sword domain, making the area within a hundred miles his domain.
The people of the Ren and Chan sects once again experienced the power of the True Sword Domain. Those with low cultivation levels felt their minds were completely captivated, their minds filled with nothing else, only the presence of swords in the world. The chilling sword energy pressed directly into their hearts, and their primordial spirits were tightly compressed.
Seeing this, Daoist Taiqing nodded with some appreciation. With his cultivation level, he would not be affected by the sword domain and could move freely within it. Looking around, Daoist Taiqing couldn't help but admire Liao Zhen. He understood the benefits of the sword domain. Although Liao Zhen could not yet fully utilize it, one day, if Liao Zhen could transform the sword domain into a world, even a saint could fight against him.
After some calculation, Taiqing Daoist couldn't help but feel murderous intent towards Zhen. If such a genius were allowed to grow up, how would the He Chan and other sects have a place to stand in the future? Several disciples of Penglai Island were all quasi-saints, and their strength was too great. If it weren't for the current conflict between the two sides, they probably wouldn't have known that Penglai Island had such strength. When Mozi and Han Fei first appeared, even Laozi had to admire them. With two more True Immortals who had severed two corpses, even a saint would have to be tempted. After all, there are not many people with such cultivation.
The four formal disciples of Penglai Island are all quasi-saints. Huixin goes without saying; she has a temple in the human race. How can the "Holy Maiden of Supreme Merit and Virtue, Virtuous and Wise Huixin" be underestimated? She severed her two corpses in her early years. Even the other major saintly sects don't have many disciples like her.
The third disciple, Chang'e, needs no introduction; her aptitude is exceptional. In her early years, Laozi had considered taking her as a disciple, but Xuantian beat him to it. Chang'e's aptitude is beyond question; she possesses the Taiyin Body, placing her on par with Dijun and Taiyi. However, she perished for unknown reasons in her early years and was reincarnated into the human race. With her aptitude, although she is currently only at the level of Severing One Corpse, she will likely become a Primordial True Immortal in a few years.
The fourth disciple, Cangjie, would have been a controversial figure if the true Sword Domain hadn't been available. Cangjie's great merit in creating characters and his mastery of a powerful divine ability—his ability to write alone—was enough to establish a sect and become its founder. Furthermore, he founded Confucianism, which, under Confucius's tutelage, spread throughout the Southern Continent and even reached the Eastern Continent, demonstrating its rapid development. His cultivation was also considerable, surpassing even Liaozhen and others. After all, the combined merits of creating characters and establishing a sect were almost equivalent to achieving sainthood through merit. If not for the Primordial Purple Qi, there might have been eight saints instead of seven.
Furthermore, Liao Zhen is even more extraordinary. He is a human immortal master, the teacher of the human emperor, and has the honorary title of "Sage Son of Merit and Virtue, Immortal Master Liao Zhen". He is a Primordial True Immortal who has severed two corpses and is the ancestor of military strategists. In addition, with this sword domain, his achievements are quite remarkable. With the existence of this sword domain, even veteran quasi-saints like Zhen Yuanzi and Styx would have to give way.
Add to that two nominal disciples, Mozi and Han Fei, who were both born as Primordial True Immortals who had severed two corpses. No one knows where they came from, and even several saints cannot figure them out. They had never shown themselves before, so it is truly unknown how powerful Penglai Island really is. With this strength, even Buddhism today cannot compare. Six Quasi-Saints, that's terrifying.
Otherwise, Laozi would not have joined forces with the Heavenly Court to attack Penglai Island. Fortunately, Penglai Island never established a religion; otherwise, there would probably be no one else in this world.
After thinking it over, Daoist Taiqing couldn't help but doubt the true strength of Penglai Island. Since the beginning of time, no one had ever truly understood Xuantian. Even the origins of Mozi and Han Fei were unknown. They only knew what the two were in their true forms, but they didn't know where they came from. Was Penglai Island really only this strong? They had taken down two Quasi-Saints in one move. Did they have any other hidden strength? Nobody knew.
The more Taiqing Daoist thought about it, the more frightened he became. Even with his saintly incarnation abilities, he was finding it hard to cope. He looked up at the sword domain that was going all out, and his killing intent surged.
At that moment, Daoist Taiqing snorted coldly and said, "You dare to show off with such insignificant skills." With a wave of his hand, his Yuan Qi burst forth, tearing open the surrounding space. Liao Zhen, who was hidden in the Sword Domain, immediately turned pale and dared not relax. He then revealed himself, slapped his forehead, and the Three Flowers Auspicious Cloud appeared. Eight ancient swords flew out from the auspicious cloud, and a chilling aura surged up in the Sword Domain. Liao Zhen pointed at the eight swords, and the eight swords flew out and disappeared into the Sword Domain. The entire Sword Domain was instantly enhanced, and the sword intent became even more powerful.
Seeing this, Daoist Taiqing was also surprised. Liaozhen's move was brilliant. He set up a sword formation within the sword domain. If Liaozhen relied solely on his cultivation to set up the sword domain and then fight Daoist Taiqing, he would naturally be no match for him, as his mana circulation would be insufficient. However, it was different after setting up this sword formation. This Innate Eight Extremes Formation could draw upon the power of the Primordial Eight Extremes. The combination of the two greatly reduced the consumption of Liaozhen's mana and enhanced the power of the entire sword domain. It was indeed a genius idea. However, Daoist Taiqing was not afraid. Even if this formation was powerful, how could it compare to his ability to fight with the vision of a sage?
Forty-Nine Sword Domains VS Taiqing Daoist
Liao Zhen set up a sword formation, and the domain shook, throwing all the other members of the Ren and Chan sects out. The people on Penglai Island also dispersed, after all, he still had to deal with a saint incarnation within the sword domain, so he dared not be negligent.
