Chapter 684: Chapter 684: Nine Swords Empire, Ye Feng Strikes, A Fist Shatters the Giant Axe
Whoosh!
Dozens of figures flew out from the capital of the Nine Swords Empire, the leader carrying nine sharp swords on his back, his body radiating a subtle Saint Might.
This was a One-Turn Quasi-Saint!
The Nine Swords Empire was a Five-Star Force.
To become such a force, the helmsman must be a Quasi-Saint.
...
And the old ancestor of the Nine Swords Empire was this Quasi-Saint.
“It’s you!”
When the Nine Swords Quasi-Saint saw Ye Feng, Xiao Cangtian, Wu Xuan, and the others, his pupils suddenly constricted.
He was shocked to the core.
Could it be that these fierce individuals had come to the Nine Swords Empire because he had offended them?
Impossible!
He had always kept a low profile.
Moreover, he had made it a point for the younger members of his clan to avoid causing trouble when outside, to avoid making enemies, to avoid fighting over things or women and to not emit “hehehe” eerie laughter…
As such, the Nine Swords Empire almost had no enemies!
So, why had Ye Feng and his group arrived with such an aggressive stance?

The Nine Swords Quasi-Saint suddenly swallowed hard, not knowing what to say.
“So it’s a Five-Star Force with a Quasi-Saint at its helm. However, a mere One-Turn Quasi-Saint can be cleaved with a single axe.”
Xuan Zhong revealed himself.
He grasped the Crimson Giant Axe, stared at the Nine Swords Quasi-Saint, and suddenly cracked a grin, the expression utterly cruel.
“What… what is this? Fellow daoist, it seems we have no misunderstanding… Eh, wait, you’re one of the ancient ferocious beings from the Forbidden Area!”
The Nine Swords Quasi-Saint stared at Xuan Zhong, his pupils suddenly constricting again.
As an old monster who had lived for thousands of years, he had witnessed several incidents of beings from the Forbidden Area committing atrocities.
Back then, the ancient beings that emerged from the Forbidden Area and caused havoc were very similar to Xuan Zhong who appeared now.
Only they were extremely savage.
They seemed devoid of intelligence, knowing only slaughter.
However, the Nine Swords Quasi-Saint did not know that the Celestials of the past, due to the lack of the Hundredfold Crimson Moon’s protection, would be disturbed by the Heavenly Dao’s Will and fall into a state of frenzy and mindlessness.
Now, the Hundredfold Crimson Moon was aloft.
Its Power of the Crimson Moon cloaked the entire Shenzhou, and the already feeble Will of the Heavenly Dao could no longer intervene in the Celestial Clan’s invasion, allowing beings like Xuan Zhong to retain their clarity.
“Correct, you recognized me. Next, I shall slay you!” Xuan Zhong brandished his axe, ready to bring it down.
“Stop him!”
Xiao Cangtian roared in fury, joined by Wu Xuan, the Rhinoceros Heavenly Emperor, and dozens of other top experts as they simultaneously struck to blast Xuan Zhong apart.
Clang!
The Crimson Moon Great Axe crashed to the ground, breaking several large mountain ranges and stirring up billowing clouds of dust.
Such a battle instantly alarmed the entire Nine Swords Empire.
All high-rank cultivators turned their gaze towards the commotion.
In midair.
The Nine Swords Quasi-Saint trembled uncontrollably.
He was completely dumbfounded.
An ancient ferocious being from the Forbidden Area had tried to strike the entire Nine Swords Empire, and while it would have been understandable had the experts of the Nine Great Holy Lands and the Nine Great Mountain Ranges banded together to stop it, why had Xiao Cangtian, Wu Xuan, and others, seemingly from the Forbidden Area, intervened to stop it as well?
What was the catch?
“The so-called beings from the Forbidden Area that once wrought havoc are actually from a mysterious force called the ‘Celestial Clan’. As for the Five Great Forbidden Zones, they weren’t really involved in the chaos.”
Ye Feng spoke out loudly.
He felt that at this time, it was necessary to stand up and clarify, to rectify the name of the native beings of the Five Great Forbidden Zones.
As soon as he spoke, all the people of the Nine Swords Empire were stunned.
If these words hadn’t come from Ye Feng’s mouth, no one would dare to refute them, and there would certainly be countless people stepping forward to question them.
“Damned!”
Xuan Zhong reformed his body again, holding the giant axe, and gave a cold look to everyone present, “Dare to obstruct the Celestial Clan, are you seeking death?”
Boom!
Before Xuan Zhong could finish speaking, he was once again blown to bits by the dozens of powerful beings, leaving nothing but bones.
But soon, he was reborn again.
The Nine Swords Quasi-Saint and countless beings of the Nine Swords Empire, who had witnessed this scene, were already gaping, unsure of what to say.
To be blasted apart and yet still capable of being reborn.
Could this… could this truly be a being from the Forbidden Area?
And those like Xiao Cangtian and Wu Xuan, who were ostensibly beings from the Forbidden Area, were they actually “allies”?
Everyone felt their worldviews had been overturned.
“Ladies and gentlemen, you can’t kill him,” Ye Feng spoke up at this moment.
Upon hearing this, all eyes in the venue fell on Ye Feng.
“Boy, it seems you’ve figured out something.” Xuan Zhong eyed Ye Feng with suspicion. In his opinion, Ye Feng was very odd, having not taken action earlier and remaining too composed.
Such a person was often the most dangerous.
“Ye Feng, what have you discerned?” Xiao Cangtian stared at Ye Feng, convinced he must know something.
Deep within the Cangqing Forbidden Zone.
The ethereal figure watched Ye Feng, a look of astonishment in her eyes, and whispered, “Could the Misty Sect’s Sect Master have realized something? If that’s truly the case, his insight is terrifying.”
Above the skies of Nine Swords Empire’s Du City.
“Indeed, I know how to erase you.” Ye Feng smiled slightly, his eyes full of calm and confidence.
“Then I will kill you first!”
Xuan Zhong lifted his giant axe, which devoured a massive amount of the Power of the Crimson Moon. The blade ignited and he swung it towards Ye Feng.
“Quick, help him!”
The top geniuses from the Nine Great Holy Lands prepared to take action.
“No need to help him!” Xiao Cangtian suddenly roared, stopping everyone present.
“Xiao Cangtian, are you actually trying to get Ye Feng killed?” A top genius from the Jiaoyang Holy Land, a shapely woman wearing a mask, rebuked him.
As she spoke, Ye Feng’s gaze flickered slightly, recognizing her.
He hadn’t expected that Yuzhu had already made a breakthrough to the peak of Void Break, for she herself was a top genius and had now naturally become a newly crowned top Heavenly Emperor.
“This level of attack can’t even kill me, let alone Ye Feng. This young master wants to see just how powerful Ye Feng truly is,” Xiao Cangtian declared gravely.
Upon these words, the eyes of people from all forces present sharpened.
Indeed!
Ye Feng was too strong!
Xuan Zhong was formidable, capable of severely injuring Xiao Cangtian, but Ye Feng had once defeated Xiao Cangtian and was rumored to have ascended to Quasi-Saint status. How could he be easily killed by Xuan Zhong?
With that in mind, the crowd stopped to watch the show.
Rip!
As everyone spoke, Ye Feng had already used Instantaneous Movement hundreds of times in succession, each time easily evading Xuan Zhong’s axe blows.
“Xuan Zhong, you’re too slow!”
Ye Feng applied a tenfold increase to his time flow rate. Facing Xuan Zhong’s attacks, it felt as if the other was performing a slow motion with his left and right hand, never able to touch him.
“Arrogant!”
Xuan Zhong attacked repeatedly but found he couldn’t touch Ye Feng at all, and his shock deepened.
He realized he had underestimated Ye Feng.
Bang, bang, bang!
Just then, Ye Feng threw three consecutive punches, each hit landing on the same spot on the giant axe, too fast for Xuan Zhong to dodge.
“No good!”
“How could you possibly find my weak point?”
“Could it be, you are the Son of Destiny from the Shenzhou Continent, the bane of my clan?”
Xuan Zhong’s eyes widened as he looked at the axe in his hands.
Crack!
Under the shocked gazes of the crowd, the giant axe suddenly cracked, and then it shattered into dust, dispersed by the wind.
As for Xuan Zhong, he, too, was gradually falling apart.
“You… who exactly are you?”
Before completely shattering, Xuan Zhong pointed at Ye Feng, eyes bulging, yelling loudly.
“I am the Misty Sect’s Sect Master, Ye Feng!”
Ye Feng withdrew his fist and stood with his hands behind his back, his face calm.
He stood proudly in the sky, his robe fluttering, emitting an aura of a One-Turn Quasi-Saint that was much more profound than Xiao Cangtian’s, giving the impression of facing a Second Turn Quasi-Saint.
“Dead… is he dead?”
“The Quasi-Saint of the Celestial Clan, Xuan Zhong, who could endlessly resurrect after our attacks, was just killed by three punches from Ye Feng?”
“Am I seeing this correctly?”
“It’s impossible, absolutely impossible; this can’t be real, Ye Feng can’t be this strong!”
Those present scanned the void with their Divine Sense, but they could no longer detect any life force from Xuan Zhong.
This meant that Ye Feng had slain Xuan Zhong with only three punches!
But how had he done it?
The crowd was utterly baffled.
