System's Super Sect Chapter 1471 - 1140: Two Fewer on the Celestial Ranking

Wen Ping’an saw the situation, furrowing his brow and lamented, "Is he still not dead? He truly is a cultivator at the Half-Step Primordial Vast Realm."

Wen Ping’an hadn’t anticipated that, after using his most powerful killing move, Fu Tianxie still wasn’t dead. He believed that with the Cyan Lotus Sword and the Cyan Lotus Sword Fourth Form — Cyan Lotus Sword Song — he should have been able to kill such a low-ranking existence in the Half-Step Primordial Vast realm.

At this moment, the wounded and desperate Fu Tianxie endured the pain and shouted towards Jiang Heshan, "Brother Jiang, quickly come to my aid! The Immortal Sect Leader must have obtained a complete Primordial Vast Realm cultivator’s legacy. We must join forces, or we will be defeated one by one."

Without waiting for Jiang Heshan to respond, the Wood Dragon lunged again, "Want to leave? Have you asked me? Come on, keep hitting me!"

With that, the Wood Dragon flashed a mischievous smile.

How mischievous?

As mischievous as a little imp.

Jiang Heshan gritted his teeth in anger; after hammering the Wood Dragon away, he intended to help Fu Tianxie. But in a flash, the Wood Dragon charged again.

"If I could just convey the Primordial Vast Power into my body, I’d surely kill you today!" Jiang Heshan cursed inwardly, nearly grinding his teeth to dust.

Fu Tianxie glanced at Jiang Heshan’s predicament and felt despaired. Realizing he couldn’t rely on Jiang Heshan, Fu Tianxie was left with one thought.

Retreat!

Live to fight another day!

Continuing to fight might cost him his life. He could still withstand the Immortal Sect Leader’s sword techniques and sword intent.

But that sword itself was a true headache.

Though his body was strengthened by Primordial Vast Power, even Celestial Level Vein Skills of the highest school could not harm him.

But that sword pierced his body as if slicing through tofu, unreasonable and unstoppable.

"Wen Ping’an, we’ll meet again. I’ll claim your life another day." Turning his head, Fu Tianxie instinctively wanted to open a Curved Realm Passage to flee, but recalling he couldn’t establish such passages within the Immortal Sect, he quickly transformed into a streak of light and sped away.

Wen Ping’an saw this but did not immediately pursue.

Though he was unsure whether the Immortal Sect’s trapping array, capable of holding extreme powers of Celestial Unrestricted cultivators, could also trap a Half-Step Primordial Vast.

But he was in no hurry.

Fu Tianxie was now "one of us."

The teleportation array could directly lock onto him, regardless of his location, as long as it was within the array’s range, no problem.

Boom——

A white light descended, bringing the fleeing Fu Tianxie back from the Immortal Sect’s boundary. As the white light before him faded, a Cyan Lotus Sword greeted him head-on. Panic-stricken, Fu Tianxie quickly unleashed a vein technique to defend.

Yet, seeing his Celestial Level Upper Grade Defensive Vein Skill pierced through, he realized the Cyan Lotus Sword’s unstoppable might.

"No—"

The first word barely escaped before the Cyan Lotus Sword pierced through Fu Tianxie’s head, cleanly shattering it in one blow.

Headless, Fu Tianxie’s body froze, his Meridians slowly dispersed, finally collapsing in the teleportation array, soon becoming still.

As Jiang Heshan glanced at this scene, he was utterly dumbfounded.

His will to fight instantly vanished. If Fu Tianxie, ranked seventh on the Celestial Ranking, died in battle, what chance did he, ranked tenth, have?

Though he previously doubted the Celestial Ranking, upon returning to Ancestor Mountain and learning that Fu Tianxie, who entered the Half-Step Primordial Vast realm two hundred years after him, could convey the Primordial Vast Power into his body, Jiang realized his own progress was negligible over the years.

"Your Immortal Sect will pay the price!" Jiang Heshan, unwilling to accept defeat, transformed into a streak of light, fleeing immediately.

Wen Ping’an smiled helplessly, "Is it this routine again? Didn’t you see that even Fu Tianxie couldn’t escape just now?"

With those words, Wen Ping’an immediately communicated with the teleportation array.

Boom——

The white light descended.

Bringing Jiang Heshan back.

This time, Wen Ping’an wasn’t in a rush to act but quietly observed as the panic-stricken Jiang Heshan continued to flee.

Boom——

Followed by the white light descending again.

Jiang Heshan returned to his original spot.

After several repetitions, Jiang Heshan was dazed.

"Can’t I escape?" Jiang Heshan dropped to his knees with a thud inside the teleportation array, his face full of dejection.

"Spare me! I’ll do anything you ask! The Royal Family can revoke the order to annihilate the Immortal Sect and can even cede the Primordial Yang Domain to the Immortal Sect! I assure you, the Royal Family will not trouble the Immortal Sect again. And keeping me alive allows me to fight for the Immortal Sect in return. I am a Half-Step Primordial Vast..."

However, as Jiang Heshan prattled on endlessly, Wen Ping’an’s sword was already unsheathed.

Fourth Form: Cyan Lotus Sword Song reappeared!

With that, Wen Ping’an transformed into a streak of light, charging toward Jiang Heshan. Alarmed, Jiang Heshan quickly thought of releasing vein techniques for defense, but recalling the Cyan Lotus Sword’s might, he only dared to shout, "You can’t kill me, I am the Royal—"

As the words fell, Jiang Heshan was already beheaded.

"If you hadn’t run fast last time, you’d be dead by now. Do you expect me to spare you?" After completing it all, Wen Ping’an promptly retracted the Cyan Lotus Sword.

Simultaneously, he gained a new understanding of his own capabilities.

Those ranked at the tail end of the top ten on the Celestial Ranking, he should have no trouble killing them. However, the mid-section and top of the Celestial Ranking likely present a significant challenge.

Just considering the method of channeling Primordial Vast Power into the body, Jiang Heshan couldn’t do it, so facing him, Wen Ping’an could easily kill him.

Fu Tianxie knew this method, so Wen Ping’an’s strongest killing move only severely injured his Spirit Body.

If not within the Immortal Sect and within the teleportation array’s range, Fu Tianxie might have truly escaped.

Meanwhile, the Four Kings and Demon Emperor of the Cyan Ghost Race, upon sensing the successive demise of the Royal Family’s ancestors, felt utterly despondent.

In complete contrast to the jubilant cheers of the Immortal Sect disciples.

"Unbeatable Sect Leader!"

"Sect Leader, the best in Heaven-Gazing Gorge!"

Older disciples felt excitement and pride.

New disciples felt excitement and passion.

No mistake in choosing the sect!

The Immortal Sect Leader slew two Royal Family ancestors; with such power, who else would be the strongest sect in Heaven-Gazing Gorge?

Thinking of this, the disciples couldn’t help but cheer again.

"Unbeatable Sect Leader!"

"Unbeatable Sect Leader!"

Hearing these cheers, Wen Ping’an spoke calmly, without excessive joy, "Alright, go cultivate, and a few of you clean up the bodies. I stress again, except for Elders above Celestial Unrestricted, no one else should leave the Immortal Sect."

After a reminder, Wen Ping’an hurriedly inquired the system, "System, can the Immortal Sect’s trapping array and killing array handle Half-Step Primordial Vast?"

"Strictly speaking, Half-Step Primordial Vast also falls under the scope of Celestial Unrestricted. Only upon stepping into Primordial Vast can they truly transform. So it is effective!"

Upon hearing the system’s explanation, Wen Ping’an nodded in reassurance, then turned back to Tingyu Pavilion to collect task rewards.

Task rewards collected.

His fame should be enough to purchase the Long Path Skill - Primordial Vast Scroll.
