Checking in for 100,000 Years Chapter 1067: Catch It Quickly!
Previously on Checking in for 100,000 Years...
"Hahaha, truly amusing. These insignificant beings, if they were gifted a near Super God Level sword, they’d probably be ecstatic for weeks, wouldn’t they?"
From the vast expanse of the void, Ye Yun observed everything unfolding within the Sect of Seven Kills, unable to suppress his amusement.
"Master, these mere ants... they are truly not good people!"
The voice of the Heaven-Slaying Sword echoed.
"Why do you say that?"
Ye Yun felt a stirring in his heart.
"This Seven Kills Sword is saturated with an immense amount of blood. I can discern the lineage of the Ancient Clan and the blood of the Dragon Clan within it..."
The Heaven-Slaying Sword conveyed.
"The Sect of Seven Kills is recognized as one of the Four Great Assassin Sects. Their reputation has always been dubious. Throughout tens of millions of years, they have engaged in countless clandestine assassinations and acts of larceny. Such a contemptible sect should absolutely not be left unpunished!"
Ye Yun's eyebrows arched as he spoke with coldness.
"Master, do you wish for me to eliminate them all?"
The Heaven-Slaying Sword offered its service.
"It is not necessary. You are a sword that cleaves the Heavenly Dao; employing you to dispatch a few gnats would be akin to using a colossal hammer to crush a tiny seed, wouldn't it?"
Ye Yun inclined his head with a smile, remarking, "Accompany them and amuse yourself. I shall arrive shortly..."
"Understood, Master."
The Heaven-Slaying Sword acquiesced.
"Indeed, Master understands me deeply, recognizing my specialty in severing the Heavenly Dao. Beings below the Heavenly Dao do not genuinely pique my interest..."
The Heaven-Slaying Sword mused internally.
Throughout the entire affair, the discreet Heaven-Slaying Sword had meticulously withheld its terrifying divine might.
Should this divine power be unleashed, few entities in the Divine Land would manage to survive.
...
Within the precincts of the Sect of Seven Kills.
The Supreme Ancestor abruptly extended a hand with deliberate slowness, his eyes blazing with fervent light as he reached toward the distant Heaven-Slaying Sword.
"Come to me!"
He whispered.
Confronted with a Divine Sword of near Super God Level, even with an unshakeable Dao Heart, he could not conceal the potent avarice surging within him at this precise moment.
Across the entirety of the Divine Land, scarce Divine Emperor Realm powerhouses possess treasures approaching the Super God Level.
Were he to obtain this sword, his standing would undoubtedly ascend to the apex of contention in this world.
The aspirations within the Supreme Ancestor’s mind intensified, his gaze growing ever brighter. After advancing a few paces, he unleashed a formidable aura.
As the aura characteristic of the Divine Emperor Realm was unveiled, every disciple within the Sect of Seven Kills instantaneously perceived their bodies becoming weighty, their ability to draw breath severely hampered.
Fortunately, it was their own Supreme Ancestor, who demonstrated restraint. Were it another Divine Emperor Realm powerhouse, such an overwhelming aura would likely have forced them prostrate onto the ground.
The Supreme Ancestor stretched forth his hand, attempting to seize the Heaven-Slaying Sword suspended in the air.
A potent force descended upon the Heaven-Slaying Sword.
However, the Heaven-Slaying Sword remained utterly immobile.
"How peculiar, is this sword proving so recalcitrant to submission?"
The middle-aged man observed this unfolding spectacle, his eye twitching.
After all, this was a powerhouse of the Divine Emperor Realm!
His inability to grasp the sword from afar was truly perplexing.
Nevertheless.
The middle-aged man had never encountered a Divine Sword of near Super God Level in his lifetime. He lacked the understanding of the profound depths involved, and thus, despite his puzzlement, no alternative conclusions formed in his mind.
To him, the Supreme Ancestor’s failure to acquire it merely signified the sword’s extraordinary might.
"If...
...this sword is a near Super God Level Divine Sword, then who exactly is that White Clad Sword Cultivator?"
Among all the disciples of the Sect of Seven Kills, only Lu Jiu kept his gaze lowered, the image of the white-clad figure const antly replaying in his thoughts.
In his estimation, a White Clad Sword Cultivator wielding such a treasure most likely possessed a significant background.
However, within the Divine Land, only the robust are accorded the privilege of obtaining treasures.
This near Super God Level sword, even if the Sect of Seven Kills refrained from seizing it, formidable figures from other sects would undoubtedly endeavor to claim it.
Upon reaching this realization, Lu Jiu found a measure of peace.
A voice, imbued with laughter, resonated from the void.
"Haha, indeed it is worthy of being a near Super God Level Divine Sword..."
Despite his inability to seize it, no trace of anger surfaced on the Supreme Ancestor’s countenance; rather, his expression grew increasingly fervent.
He advanced, instantaneously appearing before the Heaven-Slaying Sword, reaching out directly to grasp it.
Swoosh!
The Heaven-Slaying Sword shifted with subtle grace, abruptly vanishing without leaving any discernible trace.
At that precise moment, it bypassed the Supreme Ancestor entirely, hurtling directly towards the mountain gate of the Sect of Seven Kills.
Boom!
A resounding explosion erupted.
Thick plumes of smoke billowed upwards, coalescing into a dense haze that obscured the sky.
This ancient mountain gate had, in fact, been utterly pulverized by the Heaven-Slaying Sword.
"Such a rebellious sword, once subdued, probably will never change hands again!"
Faced with the damage inflicted upon the mountain gate, the Supreme Ancestor showed no sign of regret; instead, his expression grew increasingly enthusiastic.
At this moment, his face flushed slightly, eyes shining, unable to resist loudly praising this peerless divine sword.
"Quickly, seize it!"
The middle-aged man waved his hand, immediately issuing the command.
Several figures shot out, hurtling towards the Heaven-Slaying Sword.
The Heaven-Slaying Sword, like a swift fish, carved an arc through the air, bypassing the numerous disciples and continuing its assault on the buildings of the Sect of Seven Kills.
Rumble...
A series of deafening noises erupted as countless halls and temples were smashed to pieces by the Heaven-Slaying Sword.
With its immense level, the Heaven-Slaying Sword did not intend to harm these mere 'ants' but, in its annoyance, proceeded to damage the ancient structures of the Sect of Seven Kills.
"Haha, amusing!"
"Truly a peerless divine sword!"
The Supreme Elder witnessed this spectacle, unable to refrain from laughter.
Even if the entire sect’s buildings were annihilated, he wouldn’t care in the slightest.
A half-step Super God Level Divine Sword was worth more than the entire Sect of Seven Kills combined.
Figures flickered, and a multitude of disciples gave chase to the Heaven-Slaying Sword in the sky.
However, the sword's speed was so extraordinary that no one could intercept it.
Before long.
Every single building within the Sect of Seven Kills lay in ruins.
"Ah..."
The middle-aged man, watching this scene unfold, was on the verge of tears but found himself unable to cry.
The Supreme Ancestor would abandon everything for such a weapon.
He merely observed the chaotic scene above, offering no assistance.
Though he understood perfectly that the value of a half-step Super God Level Divine Sword far surpassed that of the entire Sect of Seven Kills.
Yet, as the Sect Master of the Sect of Seven Kills, a profound, insurmountable chasm remained within his heart.
"Alright, everyone retreat!"
The supreme voice of the Supreme Ancestor suddenly resonated through the area.
All disciples of the Sect of Seven Kills visibly relaxed, withdrawing from the scene.
The Heaven-Slaying Sword, at this precise moment, ceased its movement in the void.
Its tip was aimed at the Supreme Ancestor, its body quivering slightly.
It appeared to be mocking the Supreme Ancestor.
"This sword... so brimming with spirit, it must be on the verge of birthing a true Artifact Spirit, correct?"
The Supreme Ancestor's eyes blazed with a mysterious light as he spoke each word with an exceptionally solemn tone.
If this half-step Super God Level Divine Sword were to one day manifest a true Artifact Spirit, its inherent power would increase even further.
The Supreme Ancestor’s heart felt like a volcano nearing eruption, his emotions teetering on the brink of losing control.
He moved infinitesimally and vanished instantly from his original position.
A hand emerged from the void, reaching out to grasp the Heaven-Slaying Sword.
The Heaven-Slaying Sword disappeared once more.
When it reappeared, it was already beneath the protective dome of the Seven Kill Sect’s Big Formation.
"What speed..."
Faced with so many witnesses, the Supreme Ancestor, unable to capture the sword, felt a profound sense of embarrassment.
"Am I so ignorant?
A half-step Super God Level Divine Sword, how could it possess such formidable power that even with my cultivation at the Divine Emperor Realm, I cannot seize it..."
The Supreme Ancestor narrowed his eyes slightly, quietly weaving a spell with his hands.
