Paradise of Demonic Gods

Akaryuu Juushirou's leap was clearly in pursuit of Jessica.

The others exchanged a glance and instantly turned into six streams of light, giving chase in the direction Jessica had disappeared.

Hui He sighed inwardly. He knew that Fang Xingjian's act of taking the initiative to reveal this divine sword had caused a crack to appear in their relationships. However, this was an open and aboveboard scheme, and he had no way of stopping it.

After all, even Hui He felt great fervency after seeing this sword's prowess. If he had the chance, he would definitely take the divine sword for himself.

'But do you think that you'll be able to increase your chances of winning just because you've stirred up contradictions between us?' Hui He smirked inwardly. 'It's just going out for wool and come home shorn.'

Elsewhere, Akaryuu Juushirou had traversed several thousand kilometers in an instant and punched out. His fiery-red fist was instantly imprinted on Jessica's back.

With a rumble , sword light flashed out explosively at this critical moment, fending off this punch. However, the punch still caused Jessica to roll and plunge down. She collided onto a stretch of desert, sending sand and dust splattering out while creating sand dunes.

Jessica let out a stifled snort and sensed that a part of the skin on her back had been completely destroyed. Her back was now a bloody mess.

By using the Unbounded Leap, Akaryuu Juushirou had neglected the obstructions between the two of them as well as the sword light's protection, smashing straight onto her back.

If it was not because the sword light had automatically formed a protective layer under her skin after its first shield had failed, Jessica would not have just her skin destroyed. She would have also been killed by the punch.

"It's really a divine sword."

Akaryuu Juushirou landed on a sand dune with a bang and looked coldly at Jessica as he said, "Handover the divine sword and I'll let you have a complete corpse."

…

Just as the seven Commander were chasing Jessica, Fang Xingjian seemed to be deep in thought inside the Sacred White Crevice. He flicked out a finger, and two streams of sword light shot out, turning into two silver longswords. They flew before Priest Longmai and Priest Tie.

These were Fang Xingjian's two other swords—the Thunder Calamity Sword and Abyss Sword.

Seeing the two swords fly out, both Priest Longmai's and Priest Tie's eyes lit up, revealing a captivated expression.

They had long felt envious after seeing the prowess of the Panwei Sword in Jessica's hands.

Fang Xingjian instructed, "Jessica is being besieged. The two of you, take one sword each and head out to support her in battle."

"As you command."

Seeing the two of them leave with the swords, Fang Xingjian nodded slightly. Not long after they left, a stream of sword light slashed out from void space. It was the White Bone Sword which the Immortality Saint had possessed.

The longsword trembled and turned into the Immortality Saint's appearance. "Isn't this plan too risky? Each of your three Divine Swords can spread its name through the ages, having epoch-making prowess. If they are lost…"

"It's fine. These swords have become one with me, so other people can forget about really seizing them," Fang Xingjian said. "Immortality Saint, it's really thanks to your discovery this time around. Otherwise, we wouldn't have noticed anything and that person might have taken advantage of the situation."

"This person's strength is not lower than tier six of the Divine level, and he also possesses the unique powers of this world. He has partially fused with space-time and will even be able to sense if someone mentions his name," the Immortality Saint sighed. "To think that there's such a character even in this small world."

The size of Earth was really a lot smaller compared to Miracle World.

Fang Xingjian muttered to himself before saying, "But that person's remarkable powers are too strong. Just this level of preparation is still slightly insufficient."

"With the two of us joining hands to clear the Nine-Tiered Heavens, we'll both succeed if one succeeds, and we'll both fail if one fails. When the time comes, I'll release the White Emperor Zenith Sword, and Brother Fang can use this sword to kill that person," the Immortality Saint said. "Thankfully, the cultivation history in this world is still short and that person still doesn't have the Sudden Inspiration ability. The White Emperor Zenith Sword's first attack will be able to take him by surprise."

Fang Xingjian nodded. The history of extraordinary powers in this world was still too short. The systems here were naturally not as complete as the Knights' martial path in all areas.

Fang Xingjian's and the Immortality Saint's actual target was the person who was hiding in the dark. To them, regardless of whether it was Hui He or Longmai, they were merely chess pieces.

…

Elsewhere, above the desert, sword Qis soared into the clouds. Akaryuu Juushirou flashed about at rapid speed, using Unbounded Leap to circle around Jessica and attack her repeatedly. Each time they came into contact, a lot of blood would be made to splatter.

It could be said that his Unbounded Leap could not be fended off, and Jessica could only receive his attacks forcibly with her physical body. Even with sword light protecting her, the outermost layer of her skin would still be removed before the sword light could instantly put up a defense under her skin.

In almost the blink of an eye, Jessica was already covered in blood. At the sight of this, Akaryuu Juushirou became increasingly excited instead. He licked his scarlet lips and said, "Woman, I haven't even warmed up yet. How long more can you hold up?"

Jessica bit her lips, not saying a word. She merely held onto the Panwei Sword tightly with both hands, slashing out once again.

Sword light soared up, slashing toward Akaryuu Juushirou. However, he managed to pass through them with an Unbounded Leap, once again causing blood to splatter from Jessica's shoulder.

Clearly, with Jessica's experience and cultivation, she was unable to unleash the Panwei Sword's full prowess. She was even showing signs of being restrained by Akaryuu Juushirou.

A short moment later, Hui He and the others arrived. They stood in the sky, surrounding Akaryuu Juushirou and Jessica as the two of them fought between themselves. Their eyes were gleaming with schemes.

In their view, Jessica was already driven to her wits' end, and the contention of that divine sword was coming next.

Just then, another two streams of sword light came attacking. They were Priest Longmai and Priest Tie.

Zi Ling chuckled and said, "Everyone, let's attack together."

As Priest Longmai and Priest Tie joined in to provide support, the battle instantly intensified.

Although the three experts from the White Army had the assistance of the Divine Swords, they were unable to unleash the swords' true powers. Furthermore, Jessica was already seriously injured and no longer had much battle prowess.

On the other hand, the seven commanders displayed great teamwork, and their abilities complemented each other, causing the trio to be pushed back.

Over ten minutes later, Jessica let out an agonizing cry, and Akaryuu Juushirou snatched away the Panwei Sword. He looked at the longsword in excitement, feeling like infinite power was gushing through his body.

Priest Longmai frowned, and he sent the Thunder Calamity slashing out toward Akaryuu Juushiro. However, the Thunder Calamity—that could cut and slash through everything—was fended off by the Panwei Sword.

In that short instant he was distracted, Hui He suddenly made a move. He performed The World Abides to the Heart and instantly confined Priest Longmai.

With Hui He's current state of serious injuries, this confinement would only be able to hold up for an instant. However, this was sufficient for the many commanders present.

At this moment, the Yellow Army's and Green Army's commanders—the King of Trepidation and Ming Wang—made a move at the same time.

Endless Spiritual Qi of Trepidation burst out. Simultaneously, a green-colored Thunder Calamity that looked exactly the same as the original appeared in Ming Wang's hands.

…

In the Sacred White Crevice, Fang Xingjian's eyes suddenly lit up as he said calmly, "It's done. I'll be setting off then."

He stood up gradually as he spoke. Then the 12 pages of the Book of Wisdom next to him were stacked together and placed in his Divine Country.

Beside, the Immortality Saint said, "Brother Fang, don't worry. They are still unaware of my existence. When the time comes, I'll provide support in the dark and bring out the White Emperor Zenith Sword to assist you at the critical moment."

Fang Xingjian nodded and stepped out, disappearing completely.
