　　At that moment, thirty-six Star-Plucking Perfection elders from the Spirit Sword Pavilion formed a sword formation and charged toward Ye Wushuang.
　　Any one of them alone might not even withstand a single strike from Ye Wushuang.
　　But as a combined force, the thirty-six unleashed a coordinated technique, launching a fierce assault.
　　Seeing this, Xu Ziyun knew these elders could only delay Ye Wushuang briefly. Seizing the moment, he swiftly retreated to Shangguan Zhu and the others.
　　”Damn it！”
　　Normally, a full-power strike from a Star-Plucking Perfection expert would surely break the formation hub.
　　Yet now, even the combined efforts of Shangguan Zhu and the others couldn’t breach it！
　　”Ye Wushuang… that little bastard used the Creation Jade Disc to reinforce the hub in reverse！” Xu Ziyun immediately saw through the trick.
　　”What should we do now？” Shangguan Zhu’s face darkened.
　　If this Myriad Swords Slaying Heaven Formation is allowed to erupt, they might not even need to fight the main forces of the Sheng Tian Sect and others—half their own people would likely be dead or wounded.
　　”This Myriad Swords Slaying Heaven Formation is too ruthless！” Dongfang Bugui couldn’t help but curse.
　　Baili Tai’an couldn’t help but say, “Nonsense, this is a top-tier spiritual formation that Ling Shengtian spent over a hundred years crafting. For anyone below the Saint realm, breaking into the Lingjian Pavilion is nearly impossible.”
　　Xu Ziyun gritted his teeth, clenched his palm, and a small three-legged cauldron appeared in his hand.
　　”The　Tianming　Cauldron！”
　　Shangguan Zhu, Dongfang Bugui, and Baili Tai’an were all stunned at the sight.
　　”There’s no other way now！”
　　Xu Ziyun held the Tianming Cauldron in his palm and said, “I’ll use this cauldron to detonate the hub. The three of you must seal the surroundings, or else half the Lingjian Pavilion might be blown to ruins！”
　　”Got it！”
　　”Mm！”
　　Time was tight, with no room for other thoughts.
　　Originally, they had planned for the Lingjian Pavilion, the Yun Family, and the Wuji Alliance to use sheer numbers against the Sheng Tian Sect, the Lin Family, the Qingyang Hall, and the Xuantian Mansion—a battle of attrition to see who was truly stronger.
　　But who could have guessed that bastard Ye Wushuang would play so dirty！
　　He took control of the Lingjian Pavilion’s Myriad Swords Slaying Heaven Formation and turned it against them.
　　This is just disgusting！
　　Xu Ziyun looked at the small bronze cauldron hovering in his palm with a pained expression.
　　This was the Tianming Cauldron, one of the Seven Emperor Weapons of the Lingjian Pavilion, as powerful as the Dayan Cauldron in Si Luoyi’s hands.
　　To destroy it just like that—what a waste！
　　But right now, there was no other choice！
　　”Go！”
　　Xu Ziyun flicked his wrist.
　　The Tianming Cauldron shot out, plummeting straight into the valley.
　　Immediately, Bai Li Tai’an, Dongfang Bugui, and Shangguan Zhu leaped into action, landing at the edge of the valley. With a wave of their hands, spiritual power surged like rivers and seas, boiling and roaring.
　　BOOM！！！
　　The　next　moment.
　　The valley housing the core of the Ten Thousand Swords Annihilation Array erupted with a world-shaking explosion, the terrifying shockwaves rolling out in layers.
　　Even with the combined efforts of three peak Star-Transcending Realm experts, they barely managed to contain the spread of the cataclysmic blast.
　　Just as the explosion seemed about to break free and spread, Xu Ziyun dashed forward to assist Shangguan Zhu and the others in blocking the residual shockwaves.
　　Only then did the four of them barely manage to suppress the force of the core’s explosion.
　　”Not bad！”
　　But right then, a voice rang out with a hint of admiration.
　　”You four have worked hard. With the destruction of this formation hub, I can no longer control the Myriad Swords Annihilation Array.”
　　At this moment, Ye Wushuang held his sword, his white robes untouched by dust, looking ethereal as an immortal.
　　Seeing Ye Wushuang appear, Xu Ziyun was instantly alarmed.
　　Without a doubt, the thirty-six Star-Shattering Realm experts of the Spirit Sword Pavilion had already perished.
　　Ye Wushuang, having reached the peak of the Star-Shattering Realm, was terrifyingly powerful.
　　”Seeing how hard you four have worked, let me lend you a hand.”
　　As Ye Wushuang spoke, the Creation Jade Disc hovering above his head released countless willow-like threads, densely packed, flying toward the exploding valley.
　　”Ye Wushuang, how dare you！！！”
　　Xu Ziyun roared in fury.
　　The willow-like threads flew into the valley, instantly doubling the intensity of the explosions within.
　　The four had barely managed to withstand the aftermath of the formation hub’s explosion. If Ye Wushuang added more to it…
　　The consequences would be unpredictable！
　　Boom…　boom…　boom…
　　In an instant, earth-shattering explosions erupted.
　　”Damn it.”
　　”Retreat quickly！”
　　Xu Ziyun, Shangguan Zhu, Dongfang Bugui, and Baili Taian could no longer withstand the force fluctuations from the explosion of the formation hub, their bodies retreating one after another.
　　An　instant　later.
　　The power capable of annihilating heaven and earth spread from the valley, with earth-shattering roars erupting everywhere within the Spirit Sword Pavilion. The ground cracked open in countless places, billowing smoke and dust ceaselessly, and the warriors from the three factions inside the pavilion were utterly unable to escape.
　　In the blink of an eye, the once-majestic Spirit Sword Pavilion was as if struck by a meteor from the heavens or shaken by a massive earthquake—cracks spread, towers collapsed, and mountains crumbled.
　　Amidst this, many warriors were completely defenseless—some crushed into mincemeat by boulders, others killed by the shockwaves of the explosion.
　　Many wounded cried out in agony, their pleas for help and curses ringing in the ears.
　　Xu Ziyun and the other three retreated without major injuries, but when they steadied themselves and saw nearly one-third of the vast Spirit Sword Pavilion reduced to ruins centered around the valley, with countless outer buildings collapsed and warriors from the three factions dead or wounded, they were utterly stunned.
　　”Ye Wushuang！！！”
　　Xu Ziyun’s face turned cold, his entire body trembling uncontrollably.
　　”What do you want from me？”
　　Ye Wushuang stood with his sword in hand, looking at Xu Ziyun and said indifferently, “From the moment you chose to betray Ling Shengtian back then, you should have foreseen that this day would come, right？”
　　Xu Ziyun clenched his fists tightly, his body trembling with surging killing intent.
　　Ye Wushuang pointed his sword directly at Xu Ziyun and said coldly, “Today, it’s time to settle this once and for all.”
　　Swish,　swish,　swish……
　　In an instant, figures emerged from behind Ye Wushuang, breaking through the air.
　　Fighters from the Qingyang Hall, Profound Heaven Mansion, Shengtian Sect, and the Lin Family charged in at this moment, wielding spiritual weapons as they attacked the warriors of the Spirit Sword Pavilion, the Infinite Alliance, and the Yun Family.
　　Chaotic battle.
　　Began.
　　In reality, the Spirit Sword Pavilion had accumulated abundant resources over the years. With the assistance of the Infinite Alliance and the Yun Family, the combined strength of these three factions surpassed that of the Qingyang Hall, Profound Heaven Mansion, Shengtian Sect, and Lin Family alliance.
　　After all, the Shengtian Sect was established late. Although Yin Shenghao and the other two had recruited many people during this time, the gap was still vast compared to the millennia-old foundations of the others.
　　Moreover, the Lin Family, having been suppressed for years, no longer possessed the strength of a top-tier force.
　　But……
　　After Ye Wushuang manipulated the Myriad Swords Heaven-Slaying Array to kill many warriors from the three factions within the Spirit Sword Pavilion, and following the devastating explosion at the hub, the three factions suffered heavy casualties.
　　Now with the Qingyang Hall, Profound Heaven Mansion, Sacred Sky Sect, and the Lin family joining the attack, the advantage no longer lies with the Spirit Sword Pavilion.
　　Thousands of figures surged toward the devastated Spirit Sword Pavilion.
　　Inside the Spirit Sword Pavilion, the warriors of the three factions were already disoriented by the earth-shattering explosion. With the allied forces charging in from all sides, they had no time to recover.
　　A　bloody　slaughter.
　　Erupted in full force.
