Eternal Sword Monarch

Some cultivators still couldn't react in an instant, but there were some cultivators who were smart enough to realize this problem.    

If it was said that the attack from the middle stage Empty Meditative not only dissipated, but also strengthened and rebounded back. If the previous attack of that level could still dissipate and bounce back …    

What a terrifying power that must be! Just the thought of it made his heart palpitate!    

However, some people were still hoping for a chance. Could it be that this was the case? It was one thing if he had been able to deflect the first and second attacks. After all, they weren't very powerful. Just a moment ago, it was already pretty good that it could dissipate. How could it possibly bounce back?    

How could he bounce back!?    

However, it was impossible for such luck to exist. That was because in the next moment, another huge mass of light suddenly appeared in the sky!    

This ball of light was even larger than the previous group of cultivators. It was like a huge sun was falling from the sky. It made the entire world seem like a vast expanse of whiteness. No matter how sharp one was, everything in front of their eyes was completely gray! It was as if all six of his senses had been shattered!    

In the face of such immense energy, even the Genuine Qi of the cultivators with Empty Meditative Rank seemed to be completely suppressed, and not a single bit of it could be lifted. It was even more intense than when Xia Ling was facing Zhang Jianglou in Mystery City!    

If such an attack were to smash down, forget about these Empty Meditative Rank cultivators, even if a Tranquil Extinction Rank cultivator were to stand here, he would probably want to escape.    

But for cultivators of the Tranquil Extinction Rank, they might still have a chance to escape. And the few cultivators with Empty Meditative Rank in front of him, simply didn't have the strength to run away. Even if they had to run, with their speed, it was hard to say if they could get out of the sphere of energy.    

If such an energy ball were to smash down, let alone a few people, even this piece of land would evaporate in the daytime!    

Just thinking of this scene caused all of these cultivators to feel despair. They didn't even have the strength to muster up a single ounce of strength, and almost gave up struggling.    

How could this be, how could this be … Some of the cultivators muttered to themselves, still unable to believe the current situation. This was clearly a very simple mission, how could it have evolved to such an extent?    

It even developed so quickly. There was clearly no sign of it just a moment ago … Was he going to die here?    

However, at this time, that grand ball of light had already approached above their heads, causing these cultivators to clearly feel the scorching aura of death. At that moment, a figure appeared!    

This person's aura was extremely cold, as if he was a Longsword that had just been pulled out of its scabbard. It was as if he could pierce through the entire world. And this aura, caused even the cultivators of Empty Meditative Rank to tremble in fear!    

This figure was floating in the air with his clothes fluttering in the wind. He faced the terrifying ball of light, and a long shadow fell to the ground. The figure gently waved his hand and the energy that shook the heaven and earth started to slowly fade!    

The incomparably violent energy from before was now as gentle as a puppy's in front of this man!    

Following the movements of this figure, the energy in the air slowly dissipated. Soon, even the dazzling and terrifying light also gradually disappeared. The Heaven Sovereign City cultivators here finally did not have to face that kind of pressure and were able to calmly take a breath of air.    

However, as the light gradually faded, the faces of these people became ugly once again. It couldn't be called ugly, but it should be called panic!    

This was because after they recovered their vision, they could already clearly see the figure in the air. In fact, this figure was none other than the person that they yearned for in their hearts — Xia Ling, who had stolen the Magic Sword!    

This was their original goal when they came here. A few minutes ago, they wanted to find Xia Ling as soon as possible, take the Magic Sword back, and then escort this brat back. That way, he could complete this damned mission.    

But now … What surprised them was that the huge amount of energy that they could only close their eyes and wait for death to happen was dispelled by Xia Ling with a wave of his hand?!    

What kind of joke was this?!    

Didn't I hear that this kid is only at the initial level of the Yuan Dan Stage? Even among the initial stages of the Yuan Dan, it was considered to be one of the more prominent types of Primordial Spirit. But it shouldn't be to this extent, right?    

That kind of situation just now, even if it was cultivators with Tranquil Extinction Rank, it was impossible for them to reach such a level!    

Even the eyes of High Rank cultivator, the one with the highest cultivation, bulged out. His hand had been stroking his beard, but now it seemed that he was going to pull it off.    

In fact, it was really a misunderstanding. Although Xia Ling's strength was definitely not just at the initial level of the Yuan Dan Stage, but he was still not that strong. To be able to gather the energy of so many Empty Meditative Rank cultivators, and being able to reflect the energy of so many of them, the current Xia Ling could not easily dissipate.    

However, this sort of rebound formation …    

It was originally set up by Xia Ling to prevent violence from breaking the rules. It could increase his strength by a few dozen percent! When Xia Ling came back just now, he had already taken back control of the entire Sword Emperor relic. With his own aura, he could control the defensive arrays as he wished.    

It was extremely easy to dissipate the energy from the counterattack.    

However, in the eyes of these cultivators, it was simply too terrifying. He really didn't expect that the target he disapproved of could actually be this powerful!    

If that was the case, then what was the point of fighting? Wasn't it as easy as playing around with the opponent to crush him?    

Xia Ling also didn't want to use such a huge amount of energy to directly attack these people. Although it was true that they were here to attack him, but if that was the case, none of them would be able to survive.    

He did not want to cause the entrance of his residence to appear again so quickly at the entrance in the past thirty thousand years. Furthermore, if they were to eliminate all these cultivators, they would truly fall out with all of the families with Heaven Sovereign City.    

This was a violation of the principle he was supposed to follow.    

Therefore, when Xia Ling stopped his attack, he had a faint smile on his face. The Rainbow Jade Sword in his hand shone with a cold light as he slowly descended from the sky. And his smile, in the eyes of these Heaven Sovereign City cultivators, was like the smile of a reaper.    

Some of the weaker cultivators had their expressions completely changed. Their faces were deathly pale as they started to retreat step by step, almost falling to the ground. Only a few powerful cultivators who were still at the Empty Meditative High Rank were barely able to maintain their expressions, but they also felt waves of unease in their heart.
