Chapter 431: Chapter 327: Crisis of the Sword Realm

The Saint bearing white robes, Ming Jing, lamented, "Tongtian is currently in the ancestral land of the Sword Realm, comprehending the Primordial Source of the Sword Dao. It’s uncertain whether he will gain anything when he comes out of seclusion."

By his side, the Nine Heavens Saint King remained silent. He, Realm Lord Ling Tian, and Congwu Saint King had all ventured into the Vast Wilderness many times to take part in the trials of the Dao Repository Pavilion.

Once, they had by chance learned that there was a creature in the Vast Wilderness also named Tongtian.

Later, when they returned to the Sword Realm, they specifically inquired about Tongtian’s identity.

Tongtian had not hidden anything, truthfully revealing that he was a creature of the Primordial reincarnated in the Sword Realm for further cultivation.

At that time, Realm Lord Ling Tian made a remark, "Born in the Sword Realm, one is a person of the Sword Realm."

No one knew that it was because of this very remark that Ling Tian received an additional reward at the Dao Repository Pavilion, which allowed him to condense some of the Sword Dao Primordial Source and ascend to the thirty-first level.

In the following hundred thousand years, the Sword Realm saw a rapid development.

Everyone witnessed Tongtian’s dedication; he never showed the slightest slack.

The Nine Heavens Saint King clearly remembered when the Realm Lord asked Tongtian why he worked so hard.

Tongtian said, "My elder brothers have already far surpassed me; I cannot fall behind."

This statement left the Realm Lord and them in shock.

That Tongtian could comprehend the Laws of Sword Dao already proved his extraordinary innate talent and perceptiveness, and the speed of his progress afterward was even more staggering, making him arguably the most distinguished person in the history of the Sword Realm.

Yet he said he was far behind his brothers?

Could the Vast Wilderness possess so many creatures of astonishing talent?

At that time, he comforted himself by thinking that Tongtian’s elder brothers must be much older than him...

Suddenly, the Nine Heavens Saint King’s thoughts were interrupted, and his eyes burst forth with a terrifying cold intent as he sharply cried out, "Enemy attack!"

As soon as these words were spoken, both Flying Rainbow and Ming Jing, along with others, erupted with fierce Sword Intent.

"Enemy invasion, the Sword Realm, to arms!" The voice of the Nine Heavens Saint King echoed throughout the entire Sword Realm.

At this moment, all the Sword Cultivators stopped what they were doing. Regardless of whether they were practicing their swordsmanship or in closed-door cultivation, they all looked up in unison!

Hum!

Hum!

...

Accompanied by countless sounds of swords humming, the entire Sword Realm was filled with sharp Sword Intent.

"Those who offend our Sword Realm shall be killed!"

"Kill!"

In an instant, all Sword Cultivators gathered together, concentrating their Sword Intent, their momentum reaching the skies!

Sword Cultivators of the Sword Realm are widely recognized as capable fighters in the Myriad Realms, often able to challenge those above their level.

But many are unaware that the collective combat of Sword Cultivators is also formidable.

Various Sword Arrays when combined allow Sword Cultivators to unleash battle power far beyond their own cultivations.

The greater the number, the stronger the combat power.

For instance, the army of the Mysterious Extreme Realm forming eighty-one great formations is a formidable force in the chaos, but an army of a million from the Mysterious Extreme Realm is no match for a million Sword Cultivators!

Especially the Myriad Phenomena Sword Formation, which Liquor Sword, the previous Lord of the Sword Realm, created by himself, is capable of both offense and defense. Even the Formation Realm Lord, renowned as number one in formations, admits his inferiority.

"The Myriad Phenomena Sword Formation, I was fortunate enough to witness it once, but the formation you’ve laid out now is far from what it was back then," a voice transmitted from above the Sword Realm at that moment.

Following that, a figure appeared, an army emerged, and a massive force loomed, its majestic aura seeming to suppress the entire Sword Realm!

"Tai Shi Saint Emperor!" The Nine Heavens’ expression changed, yet there was little surprise in his heart.

The Mysterious Extreme Realm and the Sword Realm are archenemies; their current attack is not a surprise.

And the many powerhouses of the Myriad Realms were abuzz upon seeing the Tai Shi Saint Emperor leading his army.

"The Mysterious Extreme Realm just recently suffered a heavy defeat in the Vast Wilderness, and now they’re making a move on the Sword Realm? That’s too soon!"

"Don’t forget, Ling Tian is currently in closed-door cultivation at the Dao Repository Pavilion, receiving the rewards of the Great Path’s enlightenment. Once he emerges, he is bound to be at the Saint Emperor level. If the Mysterious Extreme Realm doesn’t deal with the Sword Realm now, they’ll miss their chance later."

"Ling Tian once said that the Lord of the Sword Realm, Liquor Sword, was harmed by a Supreme; could it be that the Tai Shi Saint Emperor is also acting under the command of that Supreme?"

While the crowd speculated, the gazes of the Supremes also converged there.

"The Mysterious Extreme Realm has made its move, but who is behind it?" the Supreme of the Blue Waves frowned.

As Ling Tian had suspected earlier, they indeed orchestrated Liquor Sword’s downfall during the last catastrophe, but the Tai Shi Saint Emperor’s subsequent move against the Sword Realm was not at their behest.

Otherwise, they wouldn’t have left the Sword Realm as a fishing spot.

For instance, the last time the Sword Realm barely managed to withstand the attack from the Mysterious Extreme Realm, they had their covert support.

However, it couldn’t be said for certain; within their ranks of Supremes, there were those with discordant intentions.

"When the Mysterious Extreme Realm made a move against the Sword Realm last time, I sensed something was off. I wanted to uncover the person behind the Mysterious Extreme Realm, but unfortunately, he was too cautious," said the Supreme of the Dao Realm.

"In this battle, shall we..." a Supreme asked.

"Let’s not intervene for now, I want to see who is leading the charge in this!" the Supreme of Light sneered, "Haven’t there been rumors lately that Sword Lord Liquor Sword is not dead? Maybe this time he will be drawn out!"

Previously, he had ordered the Mysterious Extreme Realm to attack the Vast Wilderness to draw out the person behind them, but he hadn’t expected the Vast Wilderness to be so formidable, foiling his plot.

...

In the chaotic void outside of the Sword Realm.

"Last time, we failed to breach the Sword Realm, which was a disgrace for the Mysterious Extreme Realm. This time, we must wash away the shame!" Tai Shi Saint Emperor first delivered a pre-war declaration and then, with a grand gesture, launched the attack.

The recovered armies of the Mysterious Extreme Realm, swarming like locusts, made a beeline for the Sword Realm.

Each of the five branches of the Mysterious Extreme Realm is as powerful as a major world.

Despite suffering heavy losses in the previous attack on the Vast Wilderness, their elite forces were not entirely wiped out.
