I Have A Sword-Chapter 1334: They Perished Nameless On This Day

Upon hearing that, Emperor Ming was so enraged that he laughed. "Hahaha, how arrogant! You're very arrogant! You're just a True Saint, yet you dare claim that you can kill me with just three punches? You are no different than a frog at the bottom of a well. Ridiculous!"

Before he was even done speaking, a fist imprint came hurtling toward him.

The Emperor Annihilation Fist!

The power of a billion stars condensed on the fist imprint. Its overwhelming force completely crushed Emperor Ming's aura.

Even though Emperor Ming was half a cultivation base higher than Lord Yu, he still felt an unimaginable pressure bearing down upon him as he faced this punch.

With a furious roar, Emperor Ming leaped into the air. He stretched his right hand out and clenched his fingers into a fist.

An ancient will surged forward. In that instant, countless Great Daos and Laws materialized, shifting and transforming infinitely. freewebnøvel.coɱ

Then, the transformations fused together, forming a fist intent that streaked across eternity. It was a vast and boundless fist intent!

It was the Sovereign Fist!

The fist technique was created by the Supreme Emperor of the Imperial Clan a long time ago. When it was executed, one would surpass all techniques by a realm and see the Dao at a higher level.

Of course, Emperor Ming could not be compared to that Supreme Emperor. He couldn't see the Dao at a higher level, but he could surpass every technique by a realm.

When the two fist imprints collided with each other, it quickly became clear that both fists were equal in power, as neither could overpower the other. As the two terrifying forces clashed, the starry skies crumbled piece by piece.

Their fist intents shattered everything in the way, creating an utterly horrifying sight.

Even though Emperor Ming wasn't losing, his face darkened. He realized that he was fighting a mere avatar rather than Lord Yu's true body. If Emperor Ming were fighting Lord Yu's true body...

At that moment, Emperor Ming felt a flicker of regret. He regretted relying on countless pills to reach half a step of the Beyond Dao Realm back then. If he had just taken one step at a time, Lord Yu wouldn't have been his match.

However, Lord Yu had no intention of killing Emperor Ming. Of course, he couldn't kill Emperor Ming with a mere avatar. His goal was to buy time for Ye Guan and the others.

Emperor Ming also realized that he couldn't do anything to Lord Yu.

Thus, the two fell into a deadlock.

Meanwhile, when the Dharma Lord returned to the Other Shore, he summoned all cultivators and revealed the truth about the Other Shore Battlefield to the public.

This information was kept secret to prevent panic, and there was also no real purpose to reveal it. After all, aside from True Saints, no one else could contribute to the battlefield. Thus, all these years, only those of a certain rank were made privy to this secret.

But now, things were different. Ye Guan needed the power of their faith.

The Dharma Lord believed that the billions of beings of the Other Shore would certainly be of help to Ye Guan. With that in mind, he decided to reveal the truth about the Other Shore Battlefield.

Under the command of the Dharma Lord and the cultivators of the Other Shore Hall, the truth about the battlefield began to spread rapidly across the Other Shore.

***

Ye Guan led his group in a mad charge. They had a clear goal—storm the Imperial City, which was the capital of the Imperial Clan. The Imperial Domain only had one invader throughout its long history, and it was none other than the First True Saint of the Other Shore!

Back then, the First True Saint fought his way from the Other Shore all the way to the Imperial City. The entire Imperial Clan was mobilized in that battle! They eventually killed the First True Saint, but the price they paid for it was devastating.

And now, someone else was charging toward the Imperial Clan once again!

The cultivators of the Imperial Clan, who had been pursuing Ye Guan and the others, rushed forward like madmen. They refused to let the humiliation of the past repeat itself.

However, Ye Guan and Hao Ran sliced through all resistance with their sword.

They were unstoppable, and no one could stand in their way.

Behind them, the twelve True Saints fought back-to-back, holding the line against countless attacks aimed at Ye Guan and Hao Ran. They weren't as powerful as True Saint Hao Ran or Lord Yu, but they all survived the Other Shore Battlefield.

Their strength far exceeded that of ordinary True Saints.

The fourteen were unstoppable as they made a beeline for the Imperial City.

Just then, several terrifying auras erupted in the distance and rolled forward like a storm. The auras shattered the spacetime ahead of them, reducing it into nothingness.

Ye Guan's eyes narrowed. With a single swing of his sword, the oncoming auras were instantly slashed apart.

The spacetime split open, and three elders stepped out of it. They were dressed in identical black robes, and their cloaks were drawn low over their faces. The power that they exuded boiled like scalding water, causing the surrounding spacetime to collapse and disintegrate.

They were the elders of the Imperial Clan!

These three elders weren't even half a step to the Beyond Dao Realm, but their aura was still no weaker than that of Emperor Ming.

The cultivators of the Imperial Clan stiffened in shock upon seeing them. Then, they immediately bowed. "Greetings to Supreme Elder Nan, Supreme Elder Yun, and Supreme Elder Qiu!"

Supreme Elder Nan, Supreme Elder Yun, and Supreme Elder Qiu! These three Supreme Elders of the Imperial Clan had once participated in the battle against the First True Saint of the Other Shore Civilization, and they all survived the fight.

Supreme Elder Nan stared at Ye Guan with a dark gaze. He had never imagined that, after so many years, someone would dare to attack the Imperial Clan again. This time, the leader of the attackers was just a young man.

Just as Supreme Elder Nan was about to speak, Ye Guan said, "Kill."

At his word, a sword light flashed toward Supreme Elder Nan.

Supreme Elder Nan raised his right hand and pressed down fiercely. Countless Dao Laws poured from the heavens and suppressed Ye Guan's sword light.

The next moment, a deafening sword cry echoed.

Ye Guan's sword light shattered all Dao Laws and flew toward Supreme Elder Nan. Supreme Elder Nan's heart dropped. He crossed his arms in front of his chest, summoning the Dao Laws to form an armor to block the strike.

Boom!

A thunderous explosion shook the battlefield. The armor shattered, and Supreme Elder Nan was blasted away.

It was a terrifying sword strike!

Just as Ye Guan was about to make another move, two powerful auras surged toward him like an unstoppable tidal wave.

Supreme Elder Yun and Supreme Elder Qiu had made their move!

Without hesitation, Ye Guan raised his sword and tore through their auras with just a single swing.

The two elders' expressions changed dramatically. They hadn't expected that Ye Guan's sword would be this formidable.

Ye Guan was about to attack again, but he realized that more and more cultivators from the Imperial Clan were converging on their location. He frowned deeply at the realization.

One of the True Saints said, "True Saint Hao Ran, Ye Guan, we cannot fight to the death here."

Ye Guan nodded and responded, "Let's fight our way out!"

Just then, the True Saint who had spoken ignited his fleshly body and soul. The eleven True Saints behind him followed suit, and their bodies and souls erupted into flames.

Ye Guan was stunned.

The True Saint looked at Ye Guan and smiled. "Ye Guan, we won't be able to fight our way out with you and True Saint Hao Ran."

They knew that they would only be a burden if they were to keep following Ye Guan and True Saint Hao Ran.

Seeing the True Saints ignite their fleshly body and souls, Ye Guan was shocked. He was about to stop them, but Hao Ran stopped him with a raise of a hand.

Hao Ran looked at Ye Guan and said, "Go."

Ye Guan's right hand trembled as he gripped his Qingxuan Sword tightly.

The True Saint at the helm lifted his head and gazed into the distance. His eyes were filled with yearning and regret as he murmured softly, "From the moment we were born, we've always revered the First True Saint.

"But, alas, we never had the chance to meet him. Senior Lord Yu once said that the body of the First True Saint still rests outside the Imperial City. I was hoping to see him this time, but it seems that fate has other plans..."

He withdrew his gaze and looked at Ye Guan and True Saint Hao Ran. Smiling, he said, "Ye Guan, True Saint Hao Ran, please let the cultivators of the Imperial City witness the might of the Other Shore's swordsmen. Hahaha!"

With that, he and the other True Saints behind him charged at the enemies.

True Saint Hao Ran grabbed Ye Guan and soared into the sky with his sword, heading straight for the Imperial City.

Behind them, explosions and laughter echoed throughout the heavens.

Twelve True Saints all chose to self-detonate!

They perished nameless on this day.

With their sacrifice, they stalled Supreme Elder Nan and his forces. By the time they freed themselves, Ye Guan and True Saint Hao Ran had already carved a bloody path toward the Imperial City.

Supreme Elder Nan's expression darkened immensely. Furious, he roared, "Erase their souls completely! Make sure that they will never reincarnate!"

With that, he led his forces and shot into the sky, pursuing Ye Guan and True Saint Hao Ran.

Ye Guan and True Saint Hao Ran flew at full speed on their swords. They had pushed their speed to the absolute limit.

At the forefront, Ye Guan could already see the Imperial City. In half a quarter of an hour, they would be there. However, a divine light suddenly erupted from underneath them, shooting straight toward them.

At the same time, on the road to the Imperial City, countless arrays came to life. One after another, endless beams of Great Dao divine light shot into the sky to form a massive barrier, attempting to halt their advance.

A cold gleam flashed in Ye Guan's eyes. He swung his sword swiftly. Sword light streaked through the air, shattering countless divine lights. The explosions ripped through the heavens like a grand, dazzling fireworks display.

However, there were simply too many divine lights.

Ye Guan and True Saint Hao Ran were working together, but they were still bogged down.

Meanwhile, countless terrifying auras were flying closer and closer to them. Supreme Elder Nan and his forces were catching up!

True Saint Hao Ran suddenly said, "Ye Guan."

Ye Guan opened his palm, sending his Qingxuan Sword forward to slash at the oncoming divine lights away. He then turned to look at True Saint Hao Ran.

"Remember what we talked about before? I'd like to ask you for a small favour," said Hao Ran with a smile.

Ye Guan's expression shifted slightly. "Senior, we..."

True Saint Hao Ran smiled gently. "Cai'er!"

A woman stepped forward from behind him. She was wearing a flowing green robe, and her demeanor was both gentle and serene.

True Saint Hao Ran gazed at Ye Guan and said, "Ye Guan, she's Cai'er, my fiancée. She has been following me through a life of hardships, and she has endured countless tribulations. I want to ask you to—"

"Little Ran!" Cai'er grabbed Hao Ran's hand, and her eyes filled with deep affection. She smiled softly and said, "If you die, I shall follow."

Hao Ran looked at her and shook his head.

Cai'er gazed back at him and shook her head as well.

After a brief silence, Hao Ran laughed and then turned to Ye Guan. "The road ahead is perilous. Take care."

With that, he took Cai'er's hand and turned to face the oncoming forces of the Imperial Clan. As they walked forward, his fleshly body and soul erupted into flames. Beside him, Cai'er was unwavering. She had always stood by his side, as unwavering as she was all those years ago when Hao Ran was still a cripple.
