Chapter 145

Chapter 145: The An Clan!

Summon the Ancestor!

This was undoubtedly the Nalan Clan’s last trump card, something they would never use unless it was absolutely critical. But at this moment, after all their formations had been broken by Ye Nan, they realized the gravity of the situation and decisively called upon their ancestor.

And just as that divine light shot into the sky, Ye Nan nearby suddenly spread both hands open, then formed hand seals. He murmured silently, “The divine head follows the dark path, the boundless transcends to the supreme spirit, above all heavens, only my Dao stands supreme, the body holds the light of the Dao, covering and reflecting my form…….”

Boom!

In an instant, streaks of dark red talismans erupted from beneath his feet toward the sky, and in just a single moment, tens of millions of dark red talismans blanketed the entire heaven and earth.

At this moment, Ye Nan’s voice once again resounded across heaven and earth, “Beyond the law, within the Dao……. unseen by sight, unheard by ear……. seal the heavens……. sever the earth…….”

Boom!

Across heaven and earth, tens of millions of dark red talismans directly covered the sky and the ground, sealing off this entire stretch of the universe.

The divine light of the Nalan Clan was directly extinguished, no longer able to transmit any information to the outside world.

Witnessing this scene, every single member of the Nalan Clan was utterly dumbfounded.

What kind of divine ability was this?

Ye Tianming was also somewhat stunned at this moment, because the power that his elder brother Ye Nan had unleashed made even his heart tremble. Every single one of those dark red talismans filling heaven and earth radiated an ancient aura of the Grand Dao, one that seemed to belong to an entirely different universe.

Just then, Ye Nan suddenly roared, “Tianming, kill, kill them all!”

His voice was filled with boundless hatred and fury.

Ye Tianming pulled his thoughts back, turned, and with a shudder of his body, thrust out a single sword strike.

At this moment, no one in the entire Nalan Clan could stop him, because he was now at the Circle-Breaking Realm, combined with the Law of All Beings. No one here was a match for him. However, his complexion was growing paler and paler, because both the Law of All Beings and the Life Bone Spirit were consuming an enormous amount of his energy at this point.

But right now, he didn’t care about any of that.

Very soon, screams of agony began to ring out one after another from within the Nalan Clan.

“Ye Tianming!”

Just then, a furious shout suddenly came from the distance, followed by a streak of sword light that tore through the void across heaven and earth.

It was none other than the Sect Master of Sword Sect!

Ye Tianming paid her no attention at all, raised his hand and struck with his sword, and in an instant, nearly a hundred heads of Nalan Clan members shot into the sky, blood spraying like fountains into the heavens — an extremely gory and spectacular sight.

Not far away, Ye Zong threw a single punch, and dozens of Nalan Clan powerhouses dropped dead on the spot.

At this moment, both Ye Tianming and Ye Zong had gone into a killing frenzy.

Ye Tianming was about to strike again when suddenly a fierce sword qi tore through the void toward him. Ye Tianming spun around and slashed down with his sword.

Boom!

That sword qi shattered instantly.

Ye Tianming looked up toward the Sword Sect Master not far away. She was about to speak when Ye Tianming suddenly transformed into a streak of sword light and vanished from where he stood.

The Sword Sect Master narrowed her eyes slightly, and rather than retreating, she pressed forward and thrust out a sword strike.

Although her cultivation was currently below Ye Tianming’s, her sword momentum was like a rainbow.

Bang!

The sword light shattered, and the Sword Sect Master was directly forced back several thousand zhang by that single strike. The moment she came to a stop, a trace of blood seeped from the corner of her mouth.

The Sword Sect Master slowly raised her head to look at Ye Tianming and said in a deep voice, “Ye Tianming, there are many innocent people here…….”

Ye Tianming walked slowly toward the Sword Sect Master, his blood-red sword in hand, his eyes rimmed with red. “When my Ye Clan was wiped out that day, did anyone come forward to say they were innocent? No……. No!!”

Before his words had even faded, he had already vanished from where he stood.

The Sword Sect Master’s pupils suddenly contracted. She raised her hand and slashed out with her sword.

Bang!

The sword light shattered, and the Sword Sect Master was instantly pushed back tens of thousands of zhang. The moment she stopped, her physical body was destroyed, leaving only her soul.

Ye Tianming gave her no chance at all, once again transforming into a streak of sword light that shot into the sky. Just as he was about to deliver the killing blow to the Sword Sect Master, the space-time before her suddenly shattered, and then tens of millions of sword beams came flying out in an overwhelming torrent!

The Sword Sect’s Clan-Protecting Grand Formation!

She naturally would not bring Sword Sect disciples here to their deaths. When she had set out to pursue Ye Tianming, she had already ordered Sword Sect to activate the Clan-Protecting Grand Formation.

Endless sword qi came flying toward this stretch of heaven and earth, and in that moment, Ye Nan’s complexion suddenly turned pale, because these flying swords were disrupting his Dao techniques.

Ye Nan suddenly roared, “Destroy!”

Across heaven and earth, countless dark red talismans directly ignited, then transformed into streaks of flame that blasted toward those sword qi.

Meanwhile, Ye Tianming turned and charged back toward the Nalan Clan alongside Ye Zong. They targeted the fleeing Nalan Clan members first. Their speed was extraordinary, and in less than a quarter of an hour, the tens of thousands of members of the entire Nalan Clan were separated from their heads.

The entire Nalan Clan ran with rivers of blood!

Witnessing this scene, the Sword Sect Master’s expression instantly became extremely grim. She wanted to stop it, but was completely powerless to do so.

After slaughtering the entire Nalan Clan, Ye Tianming’s eyes gradually turned blood red. In the next moment, the blood qi permeating heaven and earth was directly absorbed into his body, and as he absorbed that blood qi, the aura of the dark path emanating from him grew stronger and stronger.

Ye Zong’s eyes were also slightly red at this moment. He looked at Ye Tianming. “Tianming bro…….”

Ye Tianming wiped the blood from his face, his tone utterly calm. “On to the next one.”

With those words, he turned to look at Ye Nan. Ye Nan’s face was as pale as paper. “Go, go. Elder brother can hold on.”

Ye Tianming looked at Ye Nan. “Elder brother, if you die, Ye Zong and I will follow right after.”

With that, his body shuddered and he transformed directly into a streak of sword light that shot into the sky.

Ye Zong also leaped into the air and followed after him.

“Ha ha!”

Ye Nan laughed wildly. He frantically drove his Dao techniques, sending streaks of burning dark red talismans crashing into those sword beams one after another.

He alone held off the Sword Sect’s Clan-Protecting Grand Formation by sheer force!

But no one knew what price he paid for this……. and he didn’t care, because when he came to the Guanxuan Universe this time, he had never planned on leaving alive.

The Sword Sect Master took a long, deep look at Ye Nan, then turned and rode her sword into the sky, disappearing at the far edge of the horizon.

She could sense that Ye Tianming would not be able to hold on much longer.

The Helian Clan.

When Ye Tianming arrived at the Helian Clan, the clan was already on full alert, for they had already learned of everything that had happened at the Universal Grand Competition, and also knew what Ye Tianming had done to the Nalan Clan.

At this time, the Helian Clan also had no Circle-Breaking Realm powerhouses within their ranks. Just like the Nalan Clan, their Circle-Breaking Realm powerhouses had all been dispatched to the universal battlefield.

Upon seeing Ye Tianming arrive, a Helian Clan powerhouse shouted furiously, “Ye Tianming, you…….”

Swish!

Before the words were even finished, that Helian Clan powerhouse was pierced through the brow by a streak of sword light.

Instant death!

Ye Tianming sliced off that Helian Clan powerhouse’s head with his sword. “I’m here to slaughter your clan, not to chat.”

With that, he gripped his sword and walked toward the Helian Clan.

Within the Helian Clan, a furious roar suddenly rang out, “Clan-Protecting Formation! Clan-Protecting Formation!”

Inside the Helian Clan, countless black pillars of light erupted from deep underground toward the sky. After reaching the heavens, these black pillars rapidly converged together, forming a terrifying abyssal vortex, and from within this abyssal vortex, waves of oppressive might surged out like a tide.

Ye Tianming was about to make his move when Ye Zong beside him suddenly burst out laughing. “Tianming bro, let me handle this.”

Ye Tianming raised his hand and pressed down lightly.

Boom!

The power of the formation instantly plummeted!

The Law of All Beings — all beings are equal — directly suppressed the formation down to the level of the Supreme Immortal Realm.

Disregarding all things, all things can be made equal!

As far as this stretch of the universe was concerned right now, only those three swords could resist the Law of All Beings!

However, when Ye Tianming activated the Law of All Beings again, his complexion suddenly drained of all color.

At the same time, the Life Bone Spirit said, “Young master, your body is about to reach its limit in bearing my power……. you are already fighting beyond your capacity…….”

Ye Tianming took a deep breath and said, “Give me a little more time.”

With that, he transformed directly into a streak of sword light and charged toward the Helian Clan. This time, he directly summoned the Life Bone Puppets he had refined earlier. With the aid of these puppets, the Helian Clan had absolutely no power to resist, and shrill screams of agony rang out one after another across heaven and earth.

In less than a quarter of an hour, every last member of the entire Helian Clan had been slaughtered, a true river of blood.

And very soon, all that blood was absorbed entirely by Ye Tianming.

Ye Tianming took a deep breath, swallowing every last drop of blood qi clean.

Ye Zong suddenly burst out laughing. “Tianming bro, that was satisfying, truly satisfying, ha ha…….”

Ye Tianming said, “Next one.”

With that, he turned and rode his sword into the sky, disappearing at the far end of the star river along with the Life Bone Spirit puppets.

Ye Zong also shot into the sky with a great laugh, hurrying to follow.

And when the Sword Sect Master arrived at the Helian Clan, all she found was a ground full of corpses.

A true clan slaughter!

Wiped out completely and utterly!

Looking at the ground covered in Helian Clan corpses, the Sword Sect Master was silent for a long time. After a long while, she raised her head to look deep into the heavens, her eyes filled with bewilderment.

At this moment, a voice came from beside her. “Wondering why those above haven’t intervened?”

The Sword Sect Master turned to look. In the distance stood a man dressed in a Daoist robe.

The man in the Daoist robe fixed his gaze on the Sword Sect Master. “Because of the agreement. With that agreement in place, no one is allowed to intervene…….”

As he spoke, he turned to look in Ye Nan’s direction, watching Ye Nan who was still single-handedly holding off the Sword Sect’s Clan-Protecting Grand Formation, and a look of heartache surfaced in his eyes.

He stepped forward and appeared before Ye Nan.

The man in the Daoist robe looked at Ye Nan and said earnestly, “Little Nan, come with your master……. we’ll go to the true world, to the realm above all heavens……. as long as we’re not in this universe, your master will protect you, and no one will be able to touch you. Here……. your master cannot act!”

Ye Nan grinned, his smile utterly pale. “Master, your great kindness is something your disciple fears he will never be able to repay in this lifetime.”

The man in the Daoist robe grew anxious at once, stamping his foot. “Why are you so stubborn? You…….”

Ye Nan raised his head to look deep into the star river and said softly, “We brothers must live and die together…….”

With those words, he directly ignited his own flesh and soul.

He had to hold off the Sword Sect’s Clan-Protecting Grand Formation for his brothers, to buy them time.

The An Clan!

Before long, Ye Tianming and Ye Zong arrived at the An Clan.

The Divine Warrior Family!

At this moment, the An Clan was also on full alert.

And when Ye Tianming and Ye Zong arrived at the An Clan, a young woman appeared before them.

It was none other than An Qi!

An Qi was dressed in a flowing cyan-green gown, her features graceful and beautiful.

An Qi watched Ye Tianming approach, a flash of complex emotion crossing her eyes. “Tianming…….”

Ye Tianming suddenly drew his sword.

Swish!

Before An Qi’s words were even finished, her head flew clean off.

Sword sheathed.

Ye Tianming’s face was expressionless. “Don’t know you.”

With that, he gripped his sword and walked toward the An Clan.
