Sword Emperor

Witnessing this scene, even though Tian Ji Zi had seen a lot of things, his eyes were still filled with shock. One should know that he had some doubts about what Sun Bing had just said.    

However, he didn't expect that the truth would appear in front of him in an instant. In an instant, he discovered that Tian Ji Zi's body was filled with a mysterious fluctuation.    

After that, both of his eyes slowly closed. The Heavenly Secrets Compass in his hand gradually floated into the air. Strands of Dao Art's rhythm appeared in the surroundings. Sun Bing could vaguely see the shadow of an eye.    

This was the Eye of Heaven. According to the legends, the Heavenly Punishment was emitted through the eye. Even Sun Bing couldn't withstand the massive pressuring.    

His breathing seemed to be greatly suppressed at this moment. Moreover, his spiritual will was in great pain. The will above his head seemed to be able to control life and death. If there was any unusual movement, it would be completely destroyed.    

Furthermore, when he looked at the illusory figure, the pressure he felt was getting stronger and stronger. After an unknown period of time, Sun Bing suddenly regained his senses. However, everything around him remained the same, as if nothing had happened.    

Sun Bing's heart was filled with doubts. He shifted his gaze to Tian Ji Zi. After that, he discovered that Tian Ji Zi's Qi had weakened by countless times.    

There was a trace of blood at the corner of his mouth, as if he had suffered a serious injury. When he opened his eyes, he couldn't help but mutter, "This is the sign of a great disaster, the beginning of the heavenly tribulation. From now on, there will be endless chaos in the Nine Prefectures, and the people won't be able to live a good life."    

After hearing this, even though Sun Bing had already known about this news many years ago, he had never thought that the result of this incident would be so terrifying.    

However, since the incident had already happened, with Sun Bing's current strength, there was no way he could resist it. However, looking at Tian Ji Zi's severely injured face, he couldn't help but ask with concern, "Is there really nothing wrong with you now?"    

"It doesn't matter. This is just a normal backlash. Usually, we have ways to avoid some small incidents, but this time, the Eye of Heaven saw it. We can't avoid it at all, and we have to pay a huge price for it."    

At the end of his words, a helpless smile emerged on Tian Ji Zi's face. After all, the price this time was too great. Even with his wealth, he couldn't bear it because his lifespan had been depleted by a hundred years.    

Immediately, he took out a precious Pill and consumed it. The weak Qi on his body had obviously stopped. However, Sun Bing could still see that the black hair on his head had turned snow white, and the aftereffects had erupted.    

Upon seeing this scene, Sun Bing's heart was filled with emotion. However, this was normal. After all, the Divination Art was a supreme secret. If one were to suddenly pry into it, one would naturally need to pay a sufficient price. However, Tian Ji Zi had paid a huge price this time.    

Although the two of them had experienced this sudden change, their speed didn't change. They walked towards the top of the city wall. At this moment, they discovered that there were countless of cultivators gathered here. Each of them had an unsightly expression on their faces.    

If they were to fight, they would have to consider the strength and trump cards of each other. If they were lucky, they could guarantee that they wouldn't die. Even if they couldn't beat them, they could still run.    

However, a huge war would surely break out in the face of the countless Demonic Beast that were approaching menacingly. There were countless cultivators here, including those who were considered experts. Now, they were just cannon fodder.    

Furthermore, as the distance between them shortened, the situation within the beast tide was clearly revealed. Numerous ferocious Demonic Beast were completely revealed, and their bodies were filled with boundless momentum. With such a large number of them gathered together, it was as if they could flatten everything.    

"That seems to be a Six-Winged Purple-Golden Tiger, one of the most powerful Ninth Grade Demonic Beast. Even an Early Life and Death Stage might not be able to kill it. Countless cultivators have fallen in its hands. I never thought that it would come out this time."    

"Also, that's the Horned Qilin Python, it's 1200 meters long. It's rumored that it has a trace of the Azure Dragon's bloodline. Even if it's a Ninth Grade Demonic Beast, even a Life and Death Stage Demonic Beast might not be its match. "    

"Isn't this the Thunder Trembling Heavenly Eagle? Even the overlord in the sky has come..."    

“...”    

Every word that came out of his mouth stirred Sun Bing's heart. After all, the scene in front of him was too shocking.    

Every overlord was incomparably huge, especially the giant eagle that was hovering in the sky. Its wings were nearly three thousand meters long, and when it spread its wings, it looked like a dark cloud. Not to mention those ordinary people who didn't have any cultivation base, even the ordinary Cultivator of the Heavenly-insight Stage would feel a strong tremble in his heart when he saw this scene.    

At this moment, the city wall was filled with sorrow and despair. In the face of such a powerful opponent, it was impossible for them to be a match for it. In fact, they didn't even need to make any unnecessary movements. All they needed to do was to launch a total attack, and this city would fall into their hands.    

However, at the moment when everyone was in despair, a tremor suddenly came from behind them. Immediately after, they could hear the exclamations coming from the crowd.    

"Isn't this Holy Son and Su Mu from the Spiritual Sacred Land? I didn't expect him to be here. It's said that although his cultivation hasn't improved in the past year, his strength has advanced to the next level. "    

"And that... It was the saintess of Zhou Family, Zhou Xiao. This time, the Zhou Family actually sent someone to help him. It seemed like all the people around him were Life and Death Stage Cultivator. "    

“...”    

After hearing these words, a strange expression flashed across Sun Bing's face. Speaking of which, these two seemed to be the people he knew, but he did not know if they knew him or not.    

Then, he slowly turned his head. He could really see the two familiar figures. He didn't expect to see them again after a year of separation. His heart was filled with emotion.    

Su Mu and Zhou Xiao, who had just walked up to the city wall in the distance, used their sharp observation skills and Sun Bing's unconcealed gaze to find them in an instant.    

However, after seeing this person clearly, the shock in their hearts was no less than Sun Bing's. They still remembered this rogue cultivators clearly; it wasn't just the holy water of the River of Forgetfulness that they had obtained in the inheritance hall.    

Even though he had already come out, he still took this opportunity to scam Ying Tianxiong and Shao Linfeng. Thus, he had shown them his kindness. At this age, he was already considered extraordinary.    

Initially, he thought that Sun Bing hadn't shown himself for a whole year. Perhaps it was because he had been assassinated. He never thought that he would meet Sun Bing again in this kind of place. Naturally, he had some thoughts of befriending Sun Bing.    

Immediately, he left the group of his family and walked towards Sun Bing.    

"I never thought that I would be able to see Brother Sun after a year of separation. It's been a long time since I last saw him." In an instant, Su Mu's voice could be heard beside Sun Bing's ears.    

"It's true that it's been a long time. It seems like Brother Su has benefited a lot from the inheritance. Now, he's almost at the Life and Death Stage." Sun Bing cupped his hands as well. Since the other party had already shown his goodwill, Sun Bing wouldn't reject him coldly.    

"No matter how many benefits we get, it's still not as good as yours. Little brother, I never thought that in just a year's time, you have already reached the Later Heaven Insight Stage. I'm impressed."    

A fiery voice was heard from the other side. When he turned his head around, he could see Zhou Xiao's face in front of everyone.    

When they heard this, the rest of them couldn't help but feel surprised in their hearts. Then, they turned around and carefully examined Sun Bing's Qi. Although he had concealed it very well, they could still find it if they were to examine it closely.    

The gazes that were originally filled with contempt instantly became incomparably solemn. One had to know that a year's time was incomparably short for them. However, Sun Bing had actually broken through in such a short period of time. Such talent was truly shocking.    

As for Tian Ji Zi, his heart was filled with astonishment. Initially, he thought that it would be rare for him to advance to the intermediate Heaven Insight Stage in such a long period of time with the help of the countless resources in the Heavenly Secret Pavilion.    

However, as a rogue cultivators, Sun Bing was faster than him even though he didn't have enough cultivation resources. This caused him to feel a strong sense of defeat.
