Chapter 980
The Heavenly Barbarian Pavilion was completely surrounded by the crowd of cultivators. More than ten Human-level Soldiers flashed in the sky. These Human-level Soldiers spread out and formed a sword formation, enveloping the Heavenly Barbarian Pavilion.
Within the sword formation, countless sword rays flashed and wreaked havoc, completely suppressing the Heavenly Barbarian Pavilion's formation. Clanging sounds kept ringing in the sky as one sword ray after another attacked the formation, trying to destroy it.
There were more than ten Human Origin Realm elites controlling the sword formation. The leader was a man in a black robe, who was in the late stage of the Human Origin Realm.
Other than that, there were three middle stage Human Origin Realm elites, while the rest were in the early stage.
Among the crowd, Zi Chen found some familiar figures, such as the Human Origin Realm elites from the five overlords and the masters of the various forces.
They were all quietly looking at the sword formation in front of them without any change in expression. As for the rest of the people around them, whether they were from big or small forces or individual cultivators, they were much more excited.
The entire Heavenly Barbarian Pavilion was dead silent. In the face of this powerful sword formation, they did not make an effective counterattack. It seemed that they did not even have an effective defense, allowing the sword formation to attack the formation.
"This formation can still hold on for a while." Sensing that the formation was still stable, Zi Chen retracted his spiritual thoughts from the formation.
"They did not enter the formation, which means that they suffered a great loss. This time, they want to break the formation from the outside." The Devil Ape looked forward and asked, "Should we go up?"
Zi Chen shook his head and said, "No rush, let's wait first."
A loud sword sound suddenly rang in the sky. This sword sound came from the Heavenly Barbarian Pavilion's formation. Five sharp sword Qi rushed out of the pavilion's protective formation and into the sword formation in the sky.
This sword Qi was extremely terrifying. It destroyed the sword rays in the sword formation in an instant. Then, the five sword Qi flew in all directions with boundless sword intent, wanting to destroy the Human-level Soldiers.
"Hmph, I've been waiting for you."
A cold snort came from the sky. The elite in the late stage of the Human Origin Realm formed a seal with his hands. The next moment, the surrounding Human-level Soldiers emitted a dazzling light. Loud sword sounds rang out as the other elites channeled their Yuan Force into their weapons.
The surrounding Spiritual Qi of Heaven and Earth began to surge crazily, gradually forming a super strong storm that gathered in the middle of the sword formation.
Clanging sounds continued to ring out as one sword light after another shot out from the Human-level Soldier towards the five streaks of Sword Qi.
The two types of energy crisscrossed in the sword formation, producing energy vibrations that shook the entire area.
Seeing this scene, everyone's expression changed, especially the few Mortal Origin Stage cultivators. They could feel the terrifying power contained in the five Sword Qi that shot out from the sword.
It was an attack that could kill them in a single blow.
While their expressions changed, their hearts were also filled with shock. They had been in seclusion all these years and did not pay attention to the Heavenly Barbarian Pavilion at all. They thought that they could suppress the Heavenly Barbarian Pavilion's old tortoise with a breakthrough in their abilities and increased their combat power. However, they did not expect to see such a scene the moment they came out of seclusion.
The Heavenly Barbarian Pavilion had already grown to the point where they feared it. Just this sword Qi alone could destroy them.
The five streaks of sword light were extremely powerful and terrifying. However, there were many experts in the Sword Sect who had a deeper understanding of the sword.
In the clash of energy, the five streaks of Sword Qi lost their strength. The light dimmed and eventually dissipated.
Seeing that the sword formation had destroyed the Sword Qi, everyone heaved a sigh of relief. The Heavenly Barbarian Pavilion's strength made everyone wary. However, at this moment, the sound of swords humming could be heard once again. This time, other than the humming of swords, there was also a loud and clear dragon's roar.
Another five streaks of Sword Qi rushed out. This time, the power contained in the Sword Qi was even stronger. After the Sword Qi appeared, it turned into a Sword Dragon and wreaked havoc in the sword formation.
The power contained within the sword dragons caused everyone to relax and become tense again. However, the people from the Sword Sect had come prepared. When they saw the sword dragons appear, they, who had been forming hand seals by themselves, all formed hand seals. Afterwards, the ten or so Human-Grade Weapons seemed to fuse into one, and a powerful sword intent appeared and shot towards the five sword dragons.
The void in the sword formation was twisting crazily. The powerful aura surged out of the sword formation. The Mortal Origin Stage cultivators were not affected, but the Elixir Realm cultivators and Zephyr Realm cultivators could not withstand it.
They either retreated or were sent flying by the impact. As they were sent flying, blood rained down from the sky. Some of them were injured, and some of their bodies were torn into pieces as if they had been cut by the Sword Qi.
The group retreated for a few miles. During this time, even a few Mortal Origin Stage cultivators retreated. The reason why they retreated was not because they were afraid of the Sword Sect's aura, but because they did not want the people from the Sword Sect to misunderstand.
The five Sword Dragons collided continuously in the sword formation. Many Sword Qi blocked them. This time, more than ten Mortal Origin Stage cultivators had used their full strength.
This was a clash of formations. It was not something that a single person could withstand. If the people present were in the middle of the formation, no one would be able to withstand the impact of this power.
The Sword Dragons roared and the Sword Will wreaked havoc. The entire sword formation was filled with a destructive aura.
The protective formation above the Heavenly Barbarian Pavilion was twisting crazily. Occasionally, a crack would appear on it. However, as soon as the crack appeared, it would heal instantly.
In the Heavenly Barbarian Pavilion, Deputy Pavilion Master Wang Qiong raised his head and looked at the sword formation formed by the destructive energy. The five Sword Dragons had dimmed and seemed like they would disappear at any time.
Beside him, Old Gui stood there and frowned. If it was a one-on-one battle, he would not be afraid of the people from the Sword Sect. Just like before, he could kill as many as they came.
However, the other party had set up a sword formation. This was something that he could not withstand.
"No, controlling the Sword Dragons won't be able to break this formation," said Lv Peng, who was controlling the formation's defense and attack.
"Then what should we do?" asked Wang Qiong. At this moment, he was obviously out of ideas.
The other powerful cultivators from the Heavenly Barbarian Pavilion stood behind Wang Qiong. Their battle prowess was not weak, but they were of no use at all. This was a battle of matrices, and no one could interfere unless someone attacked the people from the Sword Sect from the outside.
However, looking at the faces of the cultivators outside, they knew that this would not happen. Now, all the forces wanted the Heavenly Barbarian Pavilion to be destroyed today.
The five Sword Dragons exploded one by one in the sky. The destructive energy wreaked havoc. This time, the two consecutive attacks did not break the sword formation. Instead, they weakened the pavilion's defense.
Lv Peng gritted his teeth and made up his mind. He said coldly, "I don't care anymore. This is the last fight. Old Gui, transfer the energy to me."
Old Turtle did not hesitate. He placed one hand on Lv Peng's back, and an endless stream of energy surged into Lv Peng's body.
The aura around Lv Peng instantly soared, and a powerful aura filled his entire body. He formed a seal with his hands and shouted, "Rise!"
As soon as he finished speaking, boundless energy surged out, and the entire Heavenly Barbarian Pavilion rumbled.
Five stone tablets that stood on the peak of the mountain rose from the ground. They were obtained by Zi Chen from the Ancient Battlefield. Each stone tablet was engraved with the ancient word "Sword".
At this moment, as the stone tablets rose into the air, the ancient word "Sword" on the stone tablets began to glow. A sharp sword intent emerged from the stone tablets.
The sword intent was extremely ancient, as if it came from a prehistoric era.
In the outside world, everyone was elated when they saw the Sword Dragons shatter. The pavilion's defense formation was also broken at this moment. However, before the sword-light in the sword formation could rush in, something appeared.
As soon as this thing appeared, the sky and earth lost their color. The wind and clouds moved, and a boundless sword chime resounded. At this moment, everyone lost their hearing.
Apart from the sword, they could no longer see anything else. Apart from the sword chime, they could not hear anything else.
On the five sword tablets, the word "Sword" flashed with boundless light. Every ray of light was a sharp sword aura, and every ray contained sword intent.
As the boundless sword light swept past, the formation exploded with a loud bang. It was simple, direct, and domineering. It was as easy as crushing dry weeds.
Everyone in the surroundings was completely shocked. Even Zi Chen and the Devil Ape had a strange look on their faces. They had never expected the Heavenly Barbarian Pavilion to have such a trump card. Zi Chen and the Devil Ape also did not expect the sword tablets to have such an effect.
Bing'er was beside Zi Chen. She was protected by Zi Chen's energy. She opened her eyes wide and looked at the sword tablets curiously.
The five sword tablets that rose from the ground shattered the sword formation. However, before Lv Peng and the rest could cheer, their faces were filled with shock, unwillingness, and disbelief.
"Sword tablets, there are more sword tablets." At the same time, the Devil Ape also exclaimed.
The sword formation was broken, but four sword steles suddenly appeared in the sky. The quality of these sword steles seemed to be the same as the five steles below, but the surging aura was stronger, and the sword intent was clearer and sharper.
This did not mean that the sword tablets of the Heavenly Barbarian Pavilion were inferior to the four tablets. It was just that the difference in strength between the two parties controlling the sword tablets was too great.
"Haha, I was waiting for this." Seeing the five sword tablets appear, the Sword Sect elite laughed loudly.
He formed a seal with his hands. This time, it was an even more complicated seal. Streaks of energy landed on the four sword tablets one after another. Beside him, the rest of the Mortal Origin Stage elites were also forming the same seal.
At this moment, they had to work together to control the four sword tablets to fight against the five below. Of course, the so-called fight was fake. Their real goal was to snatch the sword tablets.
The reason why the Sword Sect could achieve so much was not only because they possessed a powerful sword heart, but also because of the four sword tablets. This was the inheritance of Innate-stage techniques. It was an eternal inheritance. The Sword Sect had risen because of this.
However, they had never expected that there would be five sword tablets in the Heavenly Barbarian Pavilion in such a remote place. The most infuriating thing was that the inheritance that the Sword Sect regarded as a treasure was used as the foundation of a formation to guard the door.
Although the effect of using the sword stele as the base of the formation was not bad and its power was very strong, compared to its true use, it could be said that it was worlds apart.
It could be said that leaving the sword tablets here was a complete waste of natural resources.
Ever since a Sword Sect elite had luckily escaped, the Sword Sect had brought people here for the five sword tablets.
A strange power surged from the four sword tablets. This power passed through the sword tablets and landed on the five sword tablets below.
The four sword tablets that were originally connected had now become nine.
In the Heavenly Barbarian Pavilion below, Lv Peng suddenly realized that the five sword tablets that he was controlling were showing signs of losing control.
"Oh no, come and help me!" Lv Peng shouted.
