  The figure in the light pillar gradually vanished, the light pillar from the Bewildering Maze Sea instantly becoming thicker as it enveloped the entire Vast Ocean World, causing the world to become pure dazzling white before the eyes of everyone as they were unable to see anything.

  In the World beyond Worlds, the wound of the sky in the Royal Reed Sea’s Phoenix Bearing Region was ripped apart once more as the fissure expanded unceasingly.

  The majestic pillar of light shot out from within, shooting into the horizon even in the World beyond Worlds as it illuminated the entire surrounding area!

  Everyone in the vicinity was wide-eyed and tongue-tied as they all started suspecting their earlier judgment, “Why would there be such a major disturbance when an expert of the fourth level of the Martial Saint realm ascends to the World beyond Worlds? Could something else have happened?”

  To the distant west of the Phoenix Bearing Region, the Endless Magnetic Storms rampaging in the Clear Scenic Region suddenly calmed.

  The surface of the sea suddenly collapsed down below.

  In the centre of the great sea, there appeared a massive whirlpool which the seawater unceasingly surged into.

  At the bottom of the sea, a black hole which seemed to have fallen still distorted intensely, finally dissipating into nothingness.

  Amidst the distortions in space, several figures were uncontrollably hurled out into the surrounding area…

  History's Strongest Senior Brother Chapter 870: News of an Immortal Artifact

  HSSB870: News of an Immortal Artifact

  In the deep sea of the Royal Reed Sea’s Clear Scenic Region, the black hole collapsed, leading to distortions amidst space.

  The people who had previously been trapped in the black hole were respectively flung towards different directions.

  Aside from Kang Ping and the other Grand Xuan Dynasty experts, there were also Luo Zhiyuan and some others from the Radiant Light Sect who broke free.

  Originally having been murderously pursued throughout by Kang Ping’s group, after confirming the situation on hand, Luo Zhiyuan immediately fled as fast as he could.

  As Kang Ping’s group was flung into different directions upon the collapse of the black hole, they would be unable to immediately give chase.

  After breaking free with great difficulty, those of the Radiant Light Sect first found some small to medium scale powers to learn about the current situation in the Royal Reed Sea.

  Hearing how Yan Zhaoge and Broad Creed Mountain had domineeringly slain King Xuanmu that year, having come to occupy the Spirit Inheritance Region where their Radiant Light Sect’s headquarters had once been, Luo Zhiyuan and the others could only feel all stifled within.

  Then hearing about how King Xuancheng and Shen Lingzi had returned to the Royal Reed Sea and rampantly swept through the North Sea Sword Pavilion, Copper Men Island and the Dim Darkness Sect, with Broad Creed Mountain instead standing staunch and unwavering, the Radiant Light Sect martial practitioners could only feel even more discomfited.

  This sort of Broad Creed Mountain was already long since not something that their Radiant Light Sect could stand against!

  Having once been a minor power that they of the Radiant Light Sect had totally disregarded in the past, in just a few short years, Broad Creed Mountain had already attained heights that even they had to raise their heads to look at.

  Meanwhile, King Xuancheng and Shen Lingzi were not just alive but had also returned to the Royal Reed Sea. With Kang Ping’s trio of Immortal Bridge Martial Saints also having broken free, the pressure that the Radiant Light Sect was feeling right now was truly suffocating indeed.

  While he was very unwilling to admit it, Luo Zhiyuan’s rationality told him that even if both the massive entities in the Royal Reed Sea right now, Broad Creed Mountain and the Grand Xuan Dynasty, suffered losses from the conflict between them, it would still be very difficult for his Radiant Light Sect to take advantage of it and benefit in the process.

  Looking at those of his sect, Luo Zhiyuan was silent for a long time before he said in a heavy tone, “We have got to leave the Royal Reed Sea for now.”

  Whether it was the Grand Xuan Dynasty or Broad Creed Mountain who won, it would clearly be difficult for the Radiant Light Sect to continue surviving in the Royal Reed Sea.

  They all pondered in silence before they sighed, nodding quietly.

  “Still, we won’t let it end just like this,” Luo Zhiyuan’s gaze sunk as it was cold beyond compare, “Whether it is Broad Creed Mountain or the Grand Xuan Dynasty.”

  Soon, news spread throughout the Royal Reed Sea within an extremely short period of time, even spreading to the entirety of the southeastern Yang Heaven Territory and even other places like the southern Blazing Heaven Territory.

  It was not that the weakened Radiant Light Sect still had such a powerful information network.

  Instead, the news itself was greatly shocking as it naturally spread nevertheless.

  In the past, the famed Dim Radiant Emperor Yin Tianxia of the World beyond Worlds had left behind a supreme treasure.

  An Immortal Artifact!

  The World beyond Worlds was incomparable to lower worlds like the Eight Extremities World, the Vast Ocean World and the Floating Gate World.

  While low-grade and mid-grade Sacred Artifacts were the stuff of legends for ordinary people, for Martial Saint experts with sufficiently strong powers behind them, they were no longer that rare.

  Instead, it was high-grade Sacred Artifacts which were comparatively rarer. Due to the difficulty of forging them and the scarcity of the materials required for that, it was impossible for all Immortal Bridge Martial Saints to have one on average.

  Meanwhile, even rarer than high-grade Sacred Artifacts were Immortal Artifacts.

  Even for most martial practitioners of the World beyond Worlds, these were existences of legend. Let alone having one, even those who had seen one before were already as rare as the feathers of phoenixes and the horns of unicorns.

  Now, the location of an Immortal Artifact had suddenly been made known. How would the entire world not pay attention to this, their emotions surging?

  The Radiant Light Sect announced that this Immortal Artifact had previously been concealed within the Dim Radiant Mausoleum.

  Meanwhile, apart from those of the Radiant Light Sect and the Dim Darkness Sect, there was also another person who had entered the Dim Radiant Mausoleum.

  Broad Creed Mountain’s Yan Zhaoge.

  Looking at the current predicaments of the Radiant Light Sect and the Dim Darkness Sect, it was really self-evident who the Immortal Artifact had ultimately fallen to.

  The Radiant Light Sect had initially withheld news of the Dim Radiant Wheel in hoping that they would be able to wrest it back from Yan Zhaoge, naturally not wanting outsiders to learn of it as even more experts came to snatch it.

  Yan Zhaoge’s cultivation base was insufficient for him to control the Dim Radiant Wheel anyway.

  Yet, things were just different now. While he felt stifled to the point of his heart dripping blood, Luo Zhiyuan had to admit that he had no way of wresting the Dim Radiant Wheel back from Yan Zhaoge.

  Even if Yan Zhaoge was defeated by the Grand Xuan Dynasty, the Dim Radiant Wheel would fall into the Grand Xuan Dynasty’s hands. His Radiant Light Sect would still not have a chance.

  Since that was so, he might as well flip the table over!

  After the news had spread, Luo Zhiyuan and the others quickly left the Royal Reed Sea.

  Since they had already decided to leave, they of the Radiant Light Sect did not hesitate.

  Sadly for them, they were ultimately unable to flee in the end.

  It was just that the one who caught them was not from Broad Creed Mountain or the Grand Xuan Dynasty.

  Luo Zhiyuan and the others sucked in a breath of cold air as they saw that massive hand which broke through the boundaries of the heavens and earth, extending out from amidst space.

 
That palm was massive as it seemed able to easily grasp and capture even the stars in the sky above.

  The palm was transparent, countless intricate specks of light flickering and shifting unceasingly on it like the starry sky up above.

  Upon seeing this hand, they of the Radiant Light Sect all understood who this person was.

  One of the peak experts beneath the Southeastern Exalt in the southeastern Yang Heaven Territory, an expert of the late Immortal Bridge Martial Saint realm, the Star Plucking Practitioner Guan Lide!

  Facing such an expert, Luo Zhiyuan and the others could do nothing at all as they would not be able to succeed in killing themselves even if they so wanted to.

  As the massive hand barred their advance, Luo Zhiyuan and the others did not resist as they halted submissively.

  Seeing this, the other party retracted his palm.

  The next moment, a thin middle-aged scholarly-looking man appeared before Luo Zhiyuan and the others, asking mildly, “The Immortal Artifact left behind by the Dim Radiant Emperor is in the hands of that Broad Creed Mountain’s Yan Zhaoge?”

  ……

  King Xuancheng pondered, “Immortal Artifact? Could that be fake news?”

  “I cannot say for sure that there is an Immortal Artifact. After all, even if Yan Zhaoge has obtained one, he would still be unable to unleash its power with his cultivation base.”

  The one who had spoken was none other than Kang Ping!

  Beside him, He Dongcheng and Gu Zhang both had dark looks on their faces.

  Kang Ping continued, “Still, it seems that he indeed went to look for the Dim Radiant Mausoleum along with the Radiant Light Sect and the Dim Darkness Sect before.”

  Shen Lingzi said, “After exterminating Broad Creed Mountain and capturing or killing that Yan Zhaoge, all will naturally be answered.”

  “It seems like there has been an unusual disturbance over at the southern Phoenix Bearing Region, though.”

  Hearing his words, King Xuancheng said slowly, “The most unique thing about that place is that it is where Yan Zhaoge appeared in the World beyond Worlds for the first time. There is a wound of the sky there which leads to a lower world. We have investigated there before, but clues were limited.”

  A dark look flickered within his eyes, “From the looks of it now, that Yan Zhaoge was likely hiding in this lower world where the flow of time is faster than the World beyond Worlds. Now, he is coming to the World beyond Worlds via the wound of the sky there!”

  Shen Lingzi’s gaze scanned the area, finally landing on Daoist Shi.

  Daoist Shi said mildly, “This old man is still more interested in the Taiyi Imperial Breaking Formation.”

  Shen Lingzi said, “This old man had originally wanted to take care of them personally, washing away that previous humiliation. Since junior apprentice-brother Shi says so, this old man will make a trip to the southern seas then.”

  Kang Ping said slowly now, “Grand Master, I will go.”

  Shen Lingzi glanced at him before nodding slowly. Then, he strode forth and transformed into a streak of light, directly vanishing from where he was.

  Kang Ping’s creased brows eased as he too transformed into a streak of light, vanishing from the area.

  The others continued gazing down below.

  Gazing upon Broad Creed Mountain down below!

  The Grand Xuan Dynasty martial practitioners gazed at Broad Creed Mountain together like dark clouds pressuring upon a city.

  Daoist Shi’s old figure seemed filled with vitality once more.

  He calmly waved a hand, bringing it downwards, “And so it begins.”

  History's Strongest Senior Brother Chapter 871: There are always those few people who can create miracles

  HSSB871: There are always those few people who can create miracles

  Although Shen Lingzi and Kang Ping had both left simultaneously, the Grand Xuan Dynasty martial practitioners had no objections.

  There was still King Xuancheng there.

  While he was inferior to Shen Lingzi, King Xuancheng was also an expert of the eighth level of the Martial Saint realm, the mid Immortal Bridge stage.

  Broad Creed Mountain had previously used the Taiyi Imperial Breaking Formation to block Shen Lingzi. It would not be so easy for them this time.

  The words ‘Daoist Shi’ were the reason why.

  While he was only an early Immortal Bridge Martial Saint, not just in the Royal Reed Sea or the southeastern Yang Heaven Territory, even in the entire World beyond Worlds, Daoist Shi was an elite existence amongst Immortal Bridge Martial Saints in terms of his attainments in formations.

  Without the Taiyi Imperial Breaking Formation, what could Broad Creed Mountain use to obstruct King Xuancheng and the other Grand Xuan Dynasty martial practitioners?

  Martial practitioners who were able to reach the Immortal Bridge stage had all been able to fight one against many when their cultivation bases had been lower as supreme geniuses capable of surpassing levels in battle, also cultivating in supreme martial arts which were hard to master.

  The higher up one went, the smaller the gap would be amongst martial practitioners of the same cultivation level and the greater it would be amongst those of different cultivation levels.

  Wanting to surpass levels to battle would already have become incomparably difficult.

  Granted, there were no absolutes in this world. There were always those few people who could create miracles.

  Shen Lingzi had been able to surpass the gulf between the Seeing Divinity and Immortal Bridge stages, battling against seventh level Martial Saints as a sixth level Martial Saint.

  However, facing an opponent of the eighth level of the Martial Saint realm, even with a high-grade Sacred Artifact to protect himself, he would only have been able to try to retreat fully intact. Without a Sacred Artifact, he would inevitably be defeated, his life in extreme peril.

  These were already miracles which countless people could only dream of and aspire towards.

  The reason that miracles were miracles was that they were hard to come by.

  As Daoist Shi casually waved a hand, Gu Zhang and He Dongcheng first bowed deeply before simultaneously descending towards Broad Creed Mountain down below.

  Two sword-lights which resembled long rivers of time descended, instantly transforming into a barrier of sword-light that enveloped Broad Creed Mountain.

  Where that radiance passed, the timeflow of the heavens and earth surrounding Broad Creed Mountain instantly slowed.

  Time seemed about to be frozen at this moment.

  While not as powerful as that of Shen Lingzi, the combined attack by these two Immortal Bridge Martial Saints also emitted crushing pressure like the descent of Mount Tai.

  Now, however, the heavens and earth shook in their entirety.

  A bright sabre-light shot into the skies from Broad Creed Mountain’s Heaven Rising Peak with the momentum of breaking through the heavens.

  Where the sabre-light passed, the long river of time formed of Gu Zhang and He Dongcheng combining forces and executing the Time Flowing Sword was directly chopped forcibly apart!

  That sabre-light was like the momentum of the heavens and the earth and the tides of eras as they progressed as it was unstoppable and without equal, even the flowing of time seemingly having to bow its head before this majestic, grand will.

  A figure arose from Heaven Rising Peak. With a handsome appearance and white-tipped brows, the man appeared to be in his thirties or forties.

  About the purple sabre that he held coiled the silhouettes of numerous true dragons which roared in unison, the noise resounding so deafeningly it caused one to wish they were deaf.

  It was none other than the current Chief of Broad Creed Mountain, Yan Di!

  Currently, light flickered about Yan Di’s entire body as sharp sabre-qi surged.

  Daoist Shi frowned, “Sixth level of the Martial Saint realm, late Seeing Divinity stage? From what the juniors said, it hasn’t been five years
since this youngster ascended to the World beyond Worlds…”

  Before his thoughts were concluded, he saw a shocking scene play out before him.

  After chopping through the long river of time of the Time Flowing Sword, the momentum of Yan Di’s terrifying sabre-light did not cease as it hacked directly at Gu Zhang and He Dongcheng themselves!

  Two experts of the seventh level of the Martial Saint realm who had already ascended the Immortal Bridge were actually unable to contend with an opponent who was still of the Seeing Divinity stage!

  This young opponent before them did not just possess cultivation speed that far exceeded their expectations. His martial prowess was also domineering to the extreme!

  Beside Daoist Shi, King Xuancheng said not a word as he gazed coldly at Yan Di.

  Ever since ascending to the World beyond Worlds, there had actually only been a single battle which Yan Di had partaken in.

  It was that battle which had solidified Yan Di’s fame throughout the World beyond Worlds, achieving fame with a single battle in the truest sense of the term right after he had ascended.

  That battle was the one in which Yan Di had domineeringly slain the third generation monarch of the Grand Xuan Dynasty, King Xuanmu.

  That was King Xuancheng’s son!

  The reason Shen Lingzi had agreed to leave this place so and investigate the disturbance in the south sea so heartily was that he knew that there was someone here who wished even more to take down Broad Creed Mountain than him, a person who wished to exterminate every last one of their people.

  Blazing fire soundlessly appeared, surging to the heavens as it instantly obscured the sky of the Spirit Inheritance Region.

  In the great sea down below, the seawater was rapidly vaporised, the sea levels markedly falling.

  In the surrounding regions of sea, due to the change in climate, winds and rains were also howling as tsunamis surged forth with the momentum of the sky collapsing.

  King Xuancheng strode outwards with a shocking momentum that was even more terrifying than the combined forces of Gu Zhang and He Dongcheng from earlier.
