Ye Qingzhou had no choice but to wield the Emperor's Sword Longyuan, using the power of Emperor Wu against Emperor Wu: "Weapons change with the situation, water with its form, the Myriad Transformation follows my will."

Clang~

First was the sound of the sword, followed by a resounding Dragon's Roar. The flowing water underwent myriad transformations, brought to the extreme by the Emperor's Sword Longyuan.

Water against water!

The slash of the Heavenly Cloud Sword faded into invisibility.

And Ye Qingzhou took the opportunity to swing the Divine Sword Flying Frost toward a hidden place with no one and slashed the Celestial Human Transformation Sword.

In an instant, where the sword light reached, the war-torn land began to present a scene full of vitality, and as the moment passed, thousands of pear trees bloomed.

"Ah!"

Li Zaijun cried out in pain, falling out of his Divine Concealment state, as if the organs within him had awakened their own will, threatening to separate from his body.

The pain brought by this genetic rejection was like tearing flesh and bone deep into the marrow.

"Celestial Human... Transformation... it can actually be used like this..."

Li Zaijun spat out a large mass of writhing innards as more than twenty fist-sized lumps swelled under his skin, continuing to move and shift eerily within him.

If Li Zaijun had not embarked on the path of Qi Refining, with his physical strength among Martial Saints being unremarkable, his fate would have been worse.

"Everyone, be cautious; he's absorbed part of the Plague Knight's ability!"

Michael had to warn everyone.

Especially the Sword Saint Nangugu Xinyou, who walked the path of Body Refining; he was the most restrained by the 'Celestial Human Transformation' move.

"Don't worry, with me here, this minor trick is nothing to worry about."

Short and childlike, Abe Keiming sat cross-legged floating in the air, wearing wide hunting clothes, as the Eight-Handed Mirror in his hand emitted golden light.

"Divine Fire Purification, all evil retreats!"

As the verbal curse was spoken, the Fire of Amaterasu reflected in the mirror light and fell upon Li Zaijun, purifying the mutations on him within a few breaths.

"Rock Escape, Earth Dragon Roll!"

Ka-chak~

Rumble rumble rumble rumble~

The King of Ninjas Fubu Qianjun chanted a curse and cast a spell, summoning with Rock Escape Technique a thousand-meter-long rock python rolling toward Ye Qingzhou.

With nearly thirty million tons of weight approaching at a speed of 120 kilometers per hour, this overwhelming force was enough to destroy a modern city with a population of millions.

The moves of a Martial Saint are indeed straightforward and unsophisticated!

Especially for martial artists on the path of Qi Refining, even though their body and spirit are weaknesses in combat, the range and destructive effects surpass those of martial artists on the paths of Body Refining and Spirit Refining combined!

Ye Qingzhou raised his hand, and the Celestial Punishment Sword landed steadily in his grasp.

Clang~

Amid the earth-shattering sound of the sword, endless sword light and shadow appeared behind Ye Qingzhou, the clang of swords and sabers filled the air, the sky changed color, and the sun and moon lost their brilliance, leaving only a piercing killing intent.

Heaven Killing Intent, Shifting Stars and Changing Constellations!

Earth Killing Intent, Dragon and Snake Rise to the Land!

Human Killing Intent, Heaven and Earth Reversed!

The union of heaven and man, Myriad Transformation as the foundation.

Clang~

In the instant the Celestial Punishment Sword was slashed out, a disaster descended upon the earth, all things withered!

The splendid sword qi transformed into a magnificent sword shadow that ripped through the sky and tore open the sky curtain.

Ye Qingzhou merely waved his hand casually, yet the sword qi imbued with endless chilling killing intent descended like a meteor, striking down the thousand-meter-long rock python and obliterating it.

The immense python formed of Primordial Qi and ninjutsu crashed to the ground with a mournful wail, creating a thunderous sound and a gale that spread tens of miles with dust.

Fubu Qianjun spat blood again, clearly experiencing spell counter-reaction and suffering great loss.

Without the support of Nangugu Xinyou and Abe Keiming, he feared he would have already fallen under Ye Qingzhou's blade.

Michael's mood grew solemn as he watched from the side: "Even facing five against one, they couldn't quickly take this person down, things are getting complicated. What are Ola and Jacob doing? Why haven't they shown up according to the plan for support?"

The Celestial Sword Bureau secretly plotted to eliminate Ye Qingzhou, aiming to halt the rise of Dongji Kingdom's martial arts world. Killing Ye Qingzhou, the Martial God seed, was like a lion employing full force to hunt a rabbit.

Besides the five Martial Saints on the surface, they also engaged in deals with the Holy Knight Order and the Falan Holy Mechanical Army, sparing no expense to persuade the leader of the Holy Knight Order, Ola, and the Gun Saint Jacob of the Holy Mechanical Army to participate in the siege against Ye Qingzhou.

Michael had no idea that Ola and Jacob didn't just take money and do nothing, but rather encountered an ambush on their way here.

......

On a street thirty kilometers south of Endless Mountain, Jacob, holding two alchemy pistols, calmly looked at the office lady blocking his path. He showed confusion: "Who are you? Why are you blocking my way?"

"Old friend, don't you recognize me?"

After taking off the shadow puppet disguise, the voluptuous beauty transformed into a rugged, stern-faced tough guy: "In that battle on the Dragon Skeletal Wilderness, you and I were even. Now that we've met again, shall we have another showdown?"

"White Tiger Divine General?"

Jacob grinned: "Alright."

Then he drew his guns and fired. The specially made alchemy bullets, combined with the unique mental imagery of the 'Target Heart', made Jacob, who specialized in mind, an extremely unique existence among the Martial Saints.

His own body was extremely fragile, but his alchemy weapons could cause significant harm to Martial Saints. If set up properly, Jacob even had the capability to challenge and assassinate an Ultimate Martial Saint!

That's why the martial arts world often referred to the Holy Mechanical Army, which heavily relied on alchemy creations, as a glass cannon.

And the White Tiger Divine General was also a weapons expert. With his arms crossed confidently, he raised his hand, and behind him appeared the phantom of a giant treasure vault.

The grand and solemn treasure vault resembled a heavily guarded fortress, containing swords, spears, halberds, bows, and armor — everything imaginable.

The King's Treasure Vault!

A one-man army!

The White Tiger Divine General, like the king of beasts, sat firmly in the middle, while numerous armored warriors wearing beast-shaped masks wielded weapons, commanded to eradicate their enemy.

Both sides then launched into an epic battle of hot weapons against cold weapons.

Meanwhile, Knight King Ola faced a roadblock... no, it should be a road serpent.

"This road is closed."

Yingyue jovially laughed.

Behind her, a towering giant tree rose from the ground, casting a huge shadow over half the city, inciting terror and unease among countless people.

"The Divine Tree Jianmu?"

Knight King Ola felt a momentary lapse of spirit, then focused his eyes on Yingyue: "Even though the Jianmu manifests as your mental imagery with boundless potential, potential is just potential, and strength is strength. Currently, you can't stop me."

"How would you know without trying?"

Yingyue's body was covered with snake scales, directly activating the Jiao Dragon's Body battle stance.

With only Heaven-Ascending Seventh Layer cultivation, she faced a massive power disparity against someone like Knight King Ola, an Ultimate Martial Saint of the Heaven-Ascending Ninth Layer Realm.

But to protect Ye Qingzhou, she had already resolved to stake her life.

Clang~

Ola unsheathed his sword, and the golden light of the knight's greatsword shone brightly. Within him, his blood surged like ocean waves, an immense and boundless force rushed powerfully.

"Since you're stubbornly ignorant, I'll cut you down, then go and execute Ye Qingzhou."

With a step forward, Ola entered Super Divine Speed state, displaying terrifying sword skills that shocked the world.

Having not made a move for a long time, many had forgotten that before ascending to Martial Saint, he was once the world's number one sword master!

The small land of Chuyun has now turned into a chessboard for a clash of ten saints, enveloping all of Japan in a mood of fear and despair.

Golden Martial Saints, each is a walking natural disaster.

Now, there are as many as ten such disasters!

The end of the world seems nothing less than this.

Yet, the Chuyun people were powerless to prevent this from happening, as the entire country had become a battlefield for powerful contenders, and they didn't even have the qualification to be pawns.

Countless people, amid continuous earthquakes and fierce winds, kneeled to pray for the protection of the gods, especially the Three Noble Children of Chuyun, who quickly gathered a vast amount of thought ability power.

To mortals, calamity is a dreadful tribulation.

But to gods, calamity is a staircase to ascend.

In the Chuyun Grotto Heaven, the Three Noble Children, having amassed an immense amount of thought ability power, began to stir restlessly, intending to once again descend upon the mortal world!
