Chapter 883: Chapter 431 Cultivation of the ‘Number’ Secret
“It’s you.”
Upon recognizing who the person was, Lu Xiangyuan’s complexion immediately shook, and at the same time, he discovered that the Sect Master of Yi Jian Sect had fallen, the Elder in charge of swords and several other Elders had all perished.
This outcome was completely unexpected to him.
The Sect Master of Yi Jian Sect, Xu Hao, was the successor he had personally recognized; he had already reached the peak of the Saint Venerate Realm and was only a step away from the World Master Realm.
The Elder in charge of swords had mastered the sword domain, and his strength was second only to Xu Hao, while the other Elders were in the Entering Saint Realm.
After a brief moment of shock, it was followed by a surge of towering fury.
...
He had not subdued or taken control of this Dao Weapon, but instead, Yi Jian Sect had lost so many experts.
At this point, the look in Lu Xiangyuan’s eyes when he gazed at Xiao Chen was filled with murderous intent, “Very good, I didn’t expect my Yi Jian Sect to suffer such a heavy blow today.”
One from the Saint Venerate Realm, two from the Saint Realm, and two Saints fell, with the Sect Master heavily defeated and perished.
It could be said that the overall strength of Yi Jian Sect had dropped by more than half, and nearly two-thirds of its high-end combat power was lost, only those powerful ones traveling outside had been spared.
Under such circumstances, can Yi Jian Sect continue to stand in the Hundred Battle Domain?

With this in mind, the murderous and hateful intent in Lu Xiangyuan’s eyes became even more intense when he looked at Xiao Chen.
If looks could kill, Xiao Chen would have been slain by him dozens of times.
At that moment, the Sky Slaughter Sword returned to Xiao Chen’s hand, but he did not merge the fragment he had acquired earlier with the Sky Slaughter Sword.
Merging was not something that could be done instantly; it required some time, and the current situation and circumstances did not allow him to do so.
If he lost the Sky Slaughter Sword, he was not confident he could handle the crisis that was to come.
“If you don’t want Yi Jian Sect to be destroyed, I advise you not to obstruct me.”
Xiao Chen simply responded to Lu Xiangyuan’s anger, and then his feet shimmered with light as he intended to leave.
“You break my sect protection array, kill five Elders of my Yi Jian Sect, ruin the foundation of my Yi Jian Sect, and you think to just leave like this?”
Lu Xiangyuan roared, with World Power raging, he spurred the Dao Weapon Long Sword in his hand, striking towards Xiao Chen.
Xiao Chen had been on guard against the other party, and without hesitation, he immediately activated his sword domain and deployed his sword techniques to counter the enemy.
After merging with the Sky Slaughter Sword, the strength he exerted was no simple sum of one plus one, and he quickly suppressed Lu Xiangyuan.
However, this was not the outcome Xiao Chen desired; he only had one goal now, to quickly flee this place of trouble.
He faintly felt that people from the All-Encompassing Holy Land and Taiyi Sect were getting closer and they would arrive before long.
However, Lu Xiangyuan, completely filled with rage, did not give Xiao Chen a chance to escape.
An old World Master, bursting forth with reckless power. Even though Xiao Chen had merged with the Sky Slaughter Sword, he could only suppress him. Inflicting a heavy blow on him would take a lot of time.
But the problem was that he did not have that much time now.
Boom! Boom!
Their continual clashes, the terrifying might, quickly spread, alarming not only Yi Jian Sect but also the other powerhouses in the Jing Shui Prefecture.
Even the other strong figures around Jing Shui Prefecture took notice of the battle at Yi Jian Sect and rushed towards the location.
For them, if an unforeseen event truly occurred within Jing Shui Prefecture, they would not mind scooping up a share of the benefits.
“The Azure Sky Cold Light Sword, this is the Yi Jian Sect’s sect-defining Dao Weapon!”
“The person using the Azure Sky Cold Light Sword seems to be that old guy, Lu Xiangyuan. He’s being suppressed now; could it be that some World Master of the Heaven and Earth tier has attacked Yi Jian Sect?”
Many Cultivators who felt the terrifying fluctuations and saw the sky-spanning Dao Weapon were all profoundly shocked in their hearts.
A man with a sword, attacking Yi Jian Sect, wielded power enough to shock and awe them.
The Azure Sky Cold Light Sword, as Yi Jian Sect’s sect-defining Dao Weapon, was well-known to the Cultivators in the vicinity for its potential power in the hands of a sword expert.
Moreover, Lu Xiangyuan was a World Master who had mastered the sword domain, his strength surpassing peers of the same realm.
“No, that young man doesn’t seem to have reached the World Master yet, but he also holds a Dao Weapon Long Sword, and his swordsmanship appears to be even superior to Lu Xiangyuan’s.”
“If I remember correctly, Lu Xiangyuan had reached the latter stages of the first level of sword domain several hundred years ago, right? If that young man’s swordsmanship is even higher than Lu Xiangyuan’s, wouldn’t that mean…”
“At least the Second level of the sword domain, and the Dao Weapon Long Sword in his hand seems to be of even higher quality than the Azure Sky Cold Light Sword.”
Hearing this, many of the powerhouses started to get lively thoughts.
The Azure Sky Cold Light Sword is a Seventh Grade Dao Weapon.
Higher quality than the Azure Sky Cold Light Sword…
Upon careful consideration, greed suddenly surged like a flood in their hearts.
Yi Jian Sect had strong foundations; for them to obtain the Azure Sky Cold Light Sword, they would have to wage a sect-destroying war.
This cost was bearable, but not cost-effective.
However, dealing with a single idle man, especially one who relied on a Dao Weapon for World Master combat strength, became much simpler.
They automatically overlooked any background the other party might have.
“Lu Xiangyuan is strong and has the Azure Sky Cold Light Sword in hand; after the fight, that young man’s condition will definitely be compromised, and then by finding the right moment, it’ll be possible to get one’s hands on a high-grade Dao Weapon.”
These Cultivators almost simultaneously harbored such thoughts.
Feeling the strong figures gathering around Yi Jian Sect grow more numerous, Xiao Chen slowly became impatient.
