Looking at the suddenly arriving Adam, Desolate Sword’s eyes were filled with curiosity and incomprehension.
However, he suppressed the doubts in his heart, accepted the Divine Spring water Adam handed him, and swallowed it in one gulp.
Feeling the majestic life force surging within his body, Desolate Sword’s eyes filled with shock.
Just what kind of spiritual spring was this to be so miraculous? His severe Dao injuries had mostly healed in a re instant.
Looking at the seemingly unfamiliar Adam before him, he finally could not suppress his doubts any longer.
"Little friend Adam, what exactly is going on with your strength? How do you possess such formidable power? Even compared to my Senior Brother Sect Master, you wouldn’t concede a single step!"
"Furthermore, what kind of divine object is this spiritual spring? I was on the brink of death. I never expected it to heal seventy to eighty percent of my injuries in just a few monts."
Even while on his way here, Adam had prepared for the possibility of having to expose his strength, he smoothly delivered the excuse he had already formulated.
"Senior Desolate Sword, this junior once had a fortuitous encounter in a secret realm and received an empowernt of energy from a Heaven and Earth Deity. As for this spiritual spring, it was also obtained during that sa encounter."
During the Heaven and Earth Upheaval, various grand ancient secret realms, primordial battlefields, and nurous opportunities would erge across the Mysterious Yellow World.
Amidst the turmoil, this was the best of eras. Even an ordinary person had the chance to transform into a dragon overnight.
Yet it was also a profoundly cruel era. As the price for these opportunities, countless living beings would be reduced to dry bones.
The fortuitous encounter Adam described was not actually considered outrageous. In ancient records, encounters far more heaven-defying than this were countless.
"Little friend, you truly have magnificent fortune! This old man congratulates you on obtaining such an opportunity." Hearing Adam’s explanation, Desolate Sword did not harbor many doubts.
Ever since the Upheaval began, worldly opportunities had surfaced one after another.
In the brief ti since the curtain was raised, nurous opportunities had already appeared throughout Spiritveil Territory.
Over the past few days, disciples of the Sword Sect had also obtained quite a few. The fortuitous encounter one of them received, while perhaps not as grand as Adam’s, was not too far off either.
The waves of oppressive might rolling down from the sky above the Sword Sect jolted Desolate Sword awake.
Seeing the Sword Sect Master still engaged in fierce battle, he hastily pleaded, "Little friend Adam, since you possess such cultivation, please lend Senior Brother Sect Master a helping hand!"
Adam looked up at the Sword Sect Master, who was single-handedly suppressing the five Silver Willow Imperial Ancestors high in the sky, and a trace of astonishnt flashed in his eyes.
Desolate Sword’s strength was low, so he mistakenly believed the Sword Sect Master was at a disadvantage.
However, Adam’s discerning eye was incredibly sharp, he had long noticed that the Sword Sect Master already stood in an inherently invincible position.
He was truly worthy of being an existence who had comprehended the Sword Lotus, his every move and stance was brimming with Sword Charm, his techniques were extrely concise and ordinary, giving off a profound feeling of the Great Dao returning to absolute simplicity.
Although the five Imperial Ancestors possessed massive montum, they did not dare clash with him head-on and had gradually fallen into a disadvantage.
No matter how they resisted, they could not break free from the net of swords woven by the Sword Sect Master, unable to escape the fate of defeat.
Just as Adam had deduced, the five Imperial Ancestors burned their internal blood qi to wage a final, desperate struggle. However, their efforts were easily neutralized, and they ultimately suffered a helpless defeat.
BOOM!
With a deafening explosion, the Sword Sect Master’s sword cleaved into the five Imperial Ancestors, and they perished on the spot.
Imdiately after, another sword strike slashed into Allen and the Thirteenth Elder. The two were instantly reduced to a mist of blood, vanishing completely from heaven and earth.
Seeing them all struck down by the Sword Sect Master, Adam let out a heavy sigh of relief.
With these people eliminated, Cecilia’s situation was safe for the ti being. However, a trace of solemnity remained in his eyes.
No matter how one looked at it, Cecilia’s whereabouts were now exposed, he did not dare gamble on the possibility that the Ash Clan was completely unaware.
If the Ash Clan truly knew Cecilia was inside the Sword Sect, that would be a genuinely massive problem.
Desolate Sword had indeed ntioned that mbers of the Ancient Ash Clan would not leave their Mystic Realm unless the Upheaval evolved to its absolute peak.
But the Innate Dao Body was an extrely dazzling physique even across the entire Mysterious Yellow World.
To obtain it, the Ash Clan might not hesitate to pay an astronomical price.
The Thirteenth Elder was perfect proof of this.
Since the Ancient Ash Clan could dispatch the Thirteenth Elder, it was not impossible for them to send even more powerful cultivators.
Harboring these worries, Adam turned and asked, "Senior Desolate Sword, Cecilia’s whereabouts are now highly likely known by the Ancient Ash Clan. I wonder what counterasures Senior has in mind?"
"This..." Desolate Sword was montarily at a loss, back when he secretly brought Cecilia into the Sword Sect, he believed he had done so completely unnoticed.
He never expected that the Thirteenth Elder of the Ancient Ash Clan would deduce it was the work of a sword cultivator.
The Thirteenth Elder had directed his suspicions toward Desolate Sword, believing he was the one who killed the descendants of the Ancient Ash Clan and snatched away the Innate Dao Body.
Through a strange combination of circumstances, the Thirteenth Elder had tracked them down, ultimately leading to Cecilia’s exposure.
Just as Desolate Sword fell into deep thought, a clear, hearty laugh echoed from high in the sky.
"Little friend Adam, do not fret. Miss Cecilia’s current situation is still very safe."
