"You…"
Zhen Xuanyuan's face changed at being rebuked so disrespectfully.
However, having regained his sanity and realizing the strength of Alkaid, he did not strike again, but said in a deep voice, "Alkaid! Although Jing Yuntian is at fault, you shouldn't have killed him. He was a Supre Elder of the Heavenly Dao Sect, one of the foundations of our sect. And I, as the Chief Supre Elder, must be responsible for all Supre Elders…"
"Since you want to protect Jing Yuntian, who conspired with the Demon Cultivators of the Yin Moon Sect, it seems you're also involved. Then I shall send you on your way together!"
Alkaid's figure turned, his body flickering with starlight, his right hand raised high, aiming an empty chop towards Zhen Xuanyuan's position.
"Clang!"
Accompanied by the empty chop, the golden You Long Sword let out a loud and clear humming, stirring the Great Void Path and hurtling towards Zhen Xuanyuan with a thunderous slash!
"You!?"
Zhen Xuanyuan's eyes widened in shock. "Dare to strike against !? Alkaid, have you gone mad!?"
In his hand, a bracelet radiated white flowing light once more, aiming to bind the You Long Sword chopped down by Alkaid.
anwhile, his other hand manifested a palm-sized spike, on which an energy powerful enough to shatter the void was rapidly gestating.
"Superior Dao Artifact, and... Void Grand Dissolution Technique."
He had once considered cultivating this Great Dao. Later, however, there were too many Great Daos that needed to be mastered proficiently, so he temporarily abandoned this Dao Technique. But he was very familiar with this Great Dao.
This was one of the unique Dao Techniques of the Great Void Path.
Also, it was one of the most formidable offensive Dao Techniques within the Great Void Path!
Every Great Dao needs the void as its bearing.
This Dao Technique, by dissolving the opponent's Great Void Path, directly shatters the very foundation of a cultivator's existence—destroying their Cave Heaven and Dao Seed alike.
Using this Dao Technique with lethal intent...
It was clear that this Chief Supre Elder was not as fair and upright as he claid, not as noble and dignified.
But the Sword of the Void from Alkaid, amplified by the Limitless Sword and using the You Long Sword, was not sothing that Subduing the Azure Sky could withstand.
Wherever the Jianfeng pointed, the blazing white halo that could seal the void was directly shattered by the Sword of the Void.
After shattering Subduing the Azure Sky, the relentless sharpness of the Sword of the Void continued toward Zhen Xuanyuan.
"Sothing's off!"
This realization caused a slight change in the Chief Supre Elder's expression.
Previously, when Alkaid had shattered his Subduing the Azure Sky with the Great Void Path, he thought that it was due to the power of the Heaven-Sealing Stele, a Dao Artifact.
But now, facing Alkaid's Dao Technique head-on…
He suddenly noticed that the other's Dao Technique was unreasonably powerful.
Especially when Alkaid targeted him with the Sword of the Void, the rich Daoist charm invoked by the Void Force made it seem as though the Power of the Great Void Path itself had manifested and was projected onto the Sword of the Void, striking down in the manner of the "Sword of the Void" Dao Technique.
"A Dao Lord!? No, that can't be right! A Dao Lord wouldn't let live if he struck! It's a Lifebound Daoist Art! One that reached Perfection, then elevated to the Great Perfection Level through a Void Dao Seed!"
Zhen Xuanyuan, as if realizing sothing, his face drastically changed: "Your Lifebound Daoist Art isn't Void Blink! It's the Sword of the Void that's your true Lifebound Daoist Art!"
Thinking he had discovered the truth, the Void Grand Dissolution Technique he had originally condensed suddenly reversed, targeting the Sword of the Void that Alkaid had slashed down.
The two equally destructive Void Techniques collided in the void, instantly tearing it apart and creating a pitch-black gash in the center, like a terrible scar split open in the sky, shocking to behold.
This level of collision between Void Forces appeared to be slightly overpowering even for the Twelve Demon Gods Heavenly Sealing Formation, as countless streams of light shot towards the heavens, sweeping through the void, constantly neutralizing and consuming the oscillating energies to prevent them from dispersing and causing greater damage to the surrounding environnt.
After one strike…
The power of the two Dao Techniques simultaneously dissipated in the void, ending in a stalemate.
This outco was sowhat unexpected for Alkaid.
"It seems your Lifebound Daoist Art is not the known Subduing the Azure Sky, but rather this Great Void Annihilation. A Superior Dao Artifact combined with a Great Void Annihilation Technique of the Great Perfection Level… No wonder you could hold the position of Chief Supre Elder in the Heavenly Dao Sect."
He saw through Zhen Xuanyuan's real trump card.
His Two Realms Ruler and Heaven-Sealing Stele had been upgraded to Superior Dao Artifacts, but the You Long Sword had not been nurtured to that level yet.
Previously, he thought that with the Limitless Sword, he could replace the You Long Sword. But he did not expect that the nature of top-tier Dao Artifacts had changed compared to Superior Dao Artifacts.
In this situation, even after the Sword of the Void had shattered the Subduing the Azure Sky, it surprisingly failed to overwhelm Zhen Xuanyuan's Great Void Annihilation Technique, which was equivalent to the Great Perfection Level.
And Zhen Xuanyuan, realizing the true power behind Alkaid's Sword of the Void, had also lost the will to continue fighting.
To fight on...
Would be to fight to the death.
"Alkaid! That's enough!"
Zhen Xuanyuan said in a deep voice, "I will convene the Supre Elder Council about this matter later…"
"Not enough! You were the first to initiate the battle. When it ends… is for to say."
Alkaid waved his hand, and amidst the flicker of sword light, the Sword of the Void condensed once again.
"Alkaid, you… are too arrogant!"
"It's you who are arrogant,"
Alkaid shook his head, "More words are useless. Once you learn fear, you'll naturally learn to speak properly."
"You!"
Zhen Xuanyuan shouted in anger and also called out to Gu Li not far away, "What are you waiting for? Take action, capture him!"
At the sa ti, he exploded with Divine Sense, "Alkaid has fallen to the Demonic Path! He dares to defy , the Chief Supre Elder! Four Veins Masters! Activate the Twelve Divine Demons Heavenly Sealing Formation!"
"Yes!"
```
The Vein Masters of the Four Veins received the orders without hesitation, swiftly flashing towards the key nodes of the Formation.
The Sect Protection Array, already half activated due to the intense energy fluctuations leaking within the Sect, suddenly shone brilliantly as if twelve Demon God phantasms were congealing in the Void.
Seeing this, Chi Yun, the Supre, could no longer sit still. He hastily said, "True Monarch Zhen Xuanyuan, must it co to this? Must we settle matters of life and death within our own Heavenly Dao Sect to find peace?"
Imdiately after, he turned his gaze back to Alkaid, "Sect Leader Alkaid, Jing Yuntian is dead; stop this now!"
"Stop?"
Alkaid lifted his head, looking at the gradually erging phantasms of the twelve Demon Gods above: "Do you really think that this Formation will hold down?"
He fused his Sect Leader's command dallion and the Heaven-Sealing Stele together, and then, without hesitation, threw the combined Superior Dao Artifact into the sky. The force that suppressed the Void, carrying a faint authority from the Formation, rippled out rapidly from the Dao Artifact, creating visible ripples that swept through the entire Twelve Demon Gods Heavenly Sealing Formation.
Under the ripple of this Void disturbance, the Sect Protection Array, which was about to be fully operational, now seed as if it was rusting and jamming, significantly slowing the efficiency of the Demon God phantasms' congealing.
At this rate...
The Formation would need at least a dozen more breaths to operate smoothly.
"What's going on?"
Supre Gu Li's eyes filled with astonishnt: "Why has the Formation suddenly beco difficult to activate?"
"Is it you?!"
Zhen Xuanyuan's gaze was the first to fall upon Alkaid: "Who has leaked the secrets of the Twelve Demon Gods Heavenly Sealing Formation to you? Who?!"
But Alkaid paid him no heed, as the ford Sword of the Void suddenly slashed down.
"You..."
Zhen Xuanyuan faintly realized that the situation was spiraling out of control.
Could Alkaid actually interfere with the operation of the Heavenly Dao Sect's Mountain Protection Array?!
How is this possible?!
Although his heart was extrely heavy, his hands did not slow in the slightest.
The power of Subduing the Azure Sky ford a spatial defense around his body.
The Great Void Annihilation Technique was also rapidly congealing.
"Your Lifebound Daoist Art, at best, is equivalent to mine, but I am not fighting alone..."
As he spoke, on the other side, Gu Li was already preparing another more powerful Dao Technique, transforming into a "Blazing White" giant sword that spanned the Void, aiming at Alkaid and slashing down.
However, Alkaid's expression remained as calm as ever.
It seed as if all changes were within his expectations.
The next mont, having just slashed with one Sword of the Void, he incredibly quickly congealed a second Sword of the Voids.
Following the first Sword of the Void as it tore through the air.
Zhen Xuanyuan, who had just exerted all his effort to unleash the Great Void Annihilation and struck Alkaid's first Sword of the Void within the Subduing the Azure Sky's sealed domain, abruptly had his pupils contract.
How could this be?!
As thoughts were whirling, he, clad in a Void Dao Artifact and using a Dao Technique similar to Void Blink, appeared elsewhere in a blink of an eye.
But Alkaid was currently in the state of True Spirit's Light.
As Zhen Xuanyuan perford the Teleportation Dao Technique, the second Sword of the Void imdiately shifted direction, crashing down with such force that it even caused a disturbance in the surrounding Void Force, throwing it into chaos.
"Not good!"
Seeing the Sword of the Void hurtling towards him, Zhen Xuanyuan summoned a Dao Artifact similar to the Heaven-Sealing Stele, instantly creating a sealed space, engulfing the Blade of the Void within.
Although the next second it was torn apart by the Sword of the Void, he managed to retreat explosively, rapidly forming a new Great Void Annihilation Technique.
"Futile struggle,"
"Buzzing!"
Alkaid's form flickered.
Effortlessly shaking off Supre Gu Li approaching from behind, he appeared right in front of Zhen Xuanyuan, raising his hand casually, a new Sword of the Void condensed into form.
With the enhancent from the Ti Torrent Dao Technique, a second Sword of the Void swiftly erged.
Seeing the two Swords of the Void that ford at an incredibly rapid pace...
Fear finally surfaced in Zhen Xuanyuan's eyes.
"Ti Dao Technique?!"
He uttered a low shout, ready to flash away again.
But as the first Sword of the Void descended, the tremors it caused in the Void made it impossible for him to tear through and escape.
As the Sword of the Void drew nearer, he suddenly threw out a Clone, blocking the strike from the Sword of the Void, while he himself put together another Great Void Annihilation, smashing the Sword of the Void into pieces.
But now, there was a second one.
And particularly...
In Alkaid's hand, a third Sword...
No, wrong!
It should be said: the third and fourth Swords of the Void were congealing again.
Even if he exhausted all his trump cards and managed to smash this second Sword of the Void, how would he withstand the third, fourth, or even the fifth and sixth Swords of the Void?!
With that thought, regrets about ddling unnecessarily surged in his mind.
"Stop! Alkaid, Jing Yuntian and the Jing family conspired with the Demon Cultivators, and his death at your hands is well deserved. If you have other demands, we can sit down and discuss them slowly. We're all from the Shattered Void; we see each other upon looking down or raising our heads. Why must we resort to arms?!"
