Chapter 272

Chapter 272: Standing Firm Against the Master of Guanxuan Sword!

That was a young boy, looking very young, around fourteen or fifteen, quite boyish, wearing a simple monk’s robe, holding a thick ancient tome in his arms.

Liu Sha!

Ye Tianming’s little martial uncle.

Upon seeing Liu Sha, Ye Tianming was briefly stunned, then broke into a grin, “Little martial uncle.”

Liu Sha looked at Ye Tianming and smiled, “Little martial nephew, as soon as I got your message, I rushed right over. Good thing, good thing, I made it in time.”

Ye Tianming glanced over at Xiao Zhuguo and the others, “Little martial uncle, there are quite a few of them.”

Liu Sha looked toward Xiao Zhuguo and the others, smiling faintly, “That’s fine.”

Ye Tianming: “…….”

At this moment, Xiao Zhuguo and the others also turned their gazes to Liu Sha. When they saw that Liu Sha was wearing a monk’s robe, Xiao Zhuguo’s expression immediately turned grave, “The Monk’s Academy!”

The Monk’s Academy!

Most people had no idea how terrifying this faction was. Every single person within the Monk’s Academy was extraordinarily beyond the heavens — to what degree?

Back in the day, two phrases had circulated: wear the monk’s robe, walk the great dao, unrivaled in the world.

Drawing circles was the pinnacle in other universes, but in the Monk’s Academy, that was merely the starting point.

Moreover, to this day, the Monk’s Academy’s ranking on the all-universe power rankings remained first — even though that “Ancient God” had voluntarily stepped down from the divine throne… even though the Monk’s Academy had more or less gone into seclusion, they were still number one!

Aside from the Monk’s Academy, the two forces whose rankings had risen the fastest on the all-universe rankings over the past thousand years were the Divine Realm and the Yang family.

Rising like a rocket!

Xiao Zhuguo had never expected to encounter someone wearing a monk’s robe here.

Although their young lord was a “New God,” that “New God” status had not been 100% confirmed, because their young lord had not truly ascended to the “divine throne” yet — he only possessed a “divine mandate.”

Xiao Zhuguo stared hard at Liu Sha, “You’re from the Monk’s Academy.”

Liu Sha glanced at Xiao Zhuguo and nodded, “So many of you bullying my one little martial nephew — that’s really too much, honestly…… How about this: kneel down right now, bow your heads, and admit your wrongs, and my martial nephew and I will forgive you. How does that sound? After all, I’m not really good at fighting.”

Ye Tianming: “……”

Upon hearing Liu Sha’s words, the Divine Realm powerhouses present instantly flew into a rage. Some of the more hot-tempered ones were about to make a move right then and there, but were held back by Xiao Zhuguo.

Xiao Zhuguo stared at Liu Sha, “No.”

There was some wariness, but only wariness.

Hearing Xiao Zhuguo’s response, Liu Sha nodded, “Then I have no choice but to reluctantly fight.”

As he said this, he flipped open the ancient tome and began reading.

Xiao Zhuguo and the others wore expressions of utmost gravity, not daring to be the least bit careless, all of them on full alert as if facing a great enemy.

After all, the person before them was from the Monk’s Academy — the current number one super faction in the entire universe. Most importantly, they could not sense any aura whatsoever from Liu Sha. He seemed just like an ordinary person.

And it was precisely because of this that they dared not let their guard down for even a moment.

Xiao Zhuguo and the others all stood ready for battle, yet Liu Sha made no move at all, just standing there reading.

Ye Tianming couldn’t help but ask out of curiosity, “Little martial uncle, what are you reading?”

Liu Sha said, “This is a fighting manual left behind by my second senior sister. I’m learning a move.”

Ye Tianming’s eyes went wide. Bro, you’re learning on the spot? Are you serious?

The faces of Xiao Zhuguo and the others turned incredibly ugly. Were they being insulted?

Xiao Zhuguo immediately shouted, “Kill!”

Kill!

As his voice fell, the Divine Realm powerhouses immediately charged toward Ye Tianming and Liu Sha.

Seeing that Liu Sha was still reading, Ye Tianming quickly stepped in front of him. He looked up at Xiao Zhuguo and the other powerhouses, his body bursting into flames as wave after wave of terrifying sword intent swept out from within him.

At that moment, Liu Sha behind him suddenly said excitedly, “This one works, this one works…….”

With that, he closed the book, then looked at the charging powerhouses and slowly recited, “By divine decree from above, I summon all wandering souls, all demons and spirits, all four forms of life shall receive grace……”

As he began to chant, a bizarre scene suddenly unfolded.

Dense golden scriptures abruptly surged forth throughout heaven and earth, and with their appearance, the space-time above the heads of the Divine Realm powerhouses suddenly exploded. Immediately after, beams of terrifying divine light fell straight down, enveloping and immobilizing them, and then the flesh and souls of every single powerhouse began to burn in an instant.

This bizarre scene shocked everyone present.

Ye Tianming was equally stunned. What kind of move was this?

He instinctively snuck a glance at the ancient tome in Liu Sha’s hands. The ancient characters within it were unlike anything he had ever seen.

In the distance, the Divine Realm powerhouses were horrified, for they felt themselves being erased bit by bit.

Erased!

That meant truly vanishing from this world, with no reincarnation to come.

And most terrifying of all, none of them could move at this moment, as if something had forcibly nailed them to the spot.

Even Xiao Zhuguo himself could not move. He had already activated every ounce of his power, but to no effect — all of his strength was completely unable to be unleashed.

He stared at Liu Sha in the distance with fear.

Seeing that Liu Sha had subdued everyone with a single move, all those present were greatly shocked, including Wubian Zhu, who glanced at Liu Sha and said softly, “This kid’s got something!”

Up in the void, the owner of the Dao Brush looked down at Liu Sha, brow furrowed, lost in thought.

The Divine Guard commander’s expression was more solemn than it had ever been. He stared hard at Liu Sha, a trace of wariness in his eyes, because the power Liu Sha was displaying was very unusual — completely different from ordinary great dao power.

But just then, another bizarre scene appeared.

The flames on the Divine Realm powerhouses began to fade little by little, and at the same time, the scriptures blanketing heaven and earth rapidly began to dim.

What was happening?

The Divine Realm people were baffled.

The powerhouses on the real world side were also somewhat confused.

Everyone looked toward Liu Sha.

Ye Tianming also turned to look at Liu Sha. Liu Sha himself seemed a bit baffled too. He blinked, then said, “Little martial nephew, don’t worry. Let me see where things went wrong.”

With that, he hurriedly opened the thick ancient tome.

Ye Tianming: “…….”

He had to admit, he was genuinely both shocked and confused.

What shocked him was that this little martial uncle was truly quite strange — because he realized that this little martial uncle didn’t really seem to know how to fight at all. No, more accurately, this little martial uncle didn’t seem to have any cultivation of his own. He really was learning and applying it on the spot!!

That was just not normal!

Just then, Liu Sha suddenly smiled and said, “So that’s where the problem was. I actually didn’t notice it just now……”

With that, he began to silently chant again.

No one knew what he was reciting, but the golden runes throughout heaven and earth rapidly erupted with brilliant divine light.

Boom!

Soon, the Divine Realm powerhouses in the field began to explode one after another.

Instant kills!

Witnessing this, everyone present was horrified.

Those powerhouses had all established their own dao and been revered as ancestors!

Yet at this moment, before this young boy, they couldn’t even fight back?

This level of power was genuinely off the charts.

And just then, a mysterious aura suddenly emerged from between heaven and earth. The next moment, a transparent hand shattered the void and appeared above the real world, then gently pressed downward.

Boom!

In an instant, all the golden rune light was completely suppressed, and the Divine Realm members who had not yet died gradually returned to normal.

Another powerful figure had appeared.

Ye Tianming looked up toward the depths of the void. There, a white-bearded elder slowly walked out, and the moment he emerged, the expressions of everyone present turned grave. At that moment, everyone felt an unprecedented sense of oppression, as if something were blocking their chests, making it impossible to breathe.

When this elder walked out, Wubian Zhu’s expression also darkened.

Circle-drawing realm!

The Divine Realm had ultimately produced a powerhouse of this caliber after all.

Ye Tianming said nothing. In truth, he had already mentally prepared himself for the Divine Realm producing a circle-drawing realm powerhouse. Judging by the strength and depth the Divine Realm had displayed from before until now, it was clearly very normal for them to have a circle-drawing realm powerhouse — and there might even be more than one.

Circle-drawing realm!

Ye Tianming looked at the white-bearded elder. He knew that a powerhouse of this caliber was not something he could contend with right now. Circle-drawing realm — a powerhouse of this level was undoubtedly beyond his current comprehension.

But soon, another kind of great dao power suddenly appeared between heaven and earth. That power quietly gathered from within heaven and earth, then slowly pressed down toward the white-bearded elder.

“Guanxuan Sword Master!”

Someone in the crowd suddenly cried out, “That’s the order great dao power of the Guanxuan Sword Master!”

Guanxuan Sword Master!

Ye Tianming was silent. The moment that power appeared, he had already sensed it was the order great dao. And among those in the real world whose order great dao carried such might, there was clearly only one person — the Guanxuan Sword Master.

Had the Guanxuan Sword Master personally intervened?

No!

This was merely a great dao law that the Guanxuan Sword Master had left here. In this universe and the ones below, circle-drawing realm powerhouses were not permitted to act.

That was the rule he had established!

And at this moment, everyone was curious — curious whether the order great dao law left behind by the Guanxuan Sword Master could suppress this circle-drawing realm powerhouse.

Ye Tianming was curious too.

Upon seeing the order law power appear between heaven and earth, the white-bearded elder up in the void suddenly laughed, “Guanxuan Sword Master…… you think a single law can suppress me? Come, come, let me see just how much the so-called number one in order is worth!”

With that, he stepped forward, and a great dao power that surpassed everyone’s comprehension appeared throughout this heaven and earth.

Directly challenging the Guanxuan Sword Master!
