At this moment, less than a hundred miles from the Sword Seeking Sect.
Gong Jian hovered above a mountain more than 300 feet tall. His eyes glinted with a cold light as he looked into the direction of the Sword Seeking Sect.
Master, do you see this? I’ve attained the Innate Realm and am about to avenge you by destroying the lineage of the person who beheaded you!
He suddenly looked in a distance at the sky. More than 10 figures could be seen flying towards him from that direction. Just a moment later, all of them arrived in front of him.
"Apologies for the delay in reinforcements, elder." The figure that was leading them spoke as he cupped his fists, bowing apologetically.
All the other cultivators behind him followed suit.
Gong Jian waved his hand dismissively, "I still haven’t joined your Luminous Jade Chamber, there’s no need to call me an elder." He said bluntly.
Luminous Jade Chamber. A faction on par with the Yan Immortal Dynasty. It was said that the Luminous Jade Chamber’s Master was an expert in the Innate Realm, and they also had two Innate Realm Supreme Elders.
Their strength was similar to the Yan Immortal Dynasty on the surface, but the thing was that one of the Supreme Elders of the Luminous Jade Chamber was rumored to be in the later stages of the Innate Realm, and he just needed an opportunity to enter the Golden Core Realm.
He was currently cultivating in seclusion for the past hundred years.
That’s why not even the Yan Immortal Dynasty dared to mess with them, because they would be the ones to compromise if something were to happen.
However, that was when Gong Jian appeared and told the Luminous Jade Chamber about the Golden Core Realm cave abode who’s location only the Yan Immortal Dynasty knew. Taking his cultivation of the Innate Realm into consideration, the Chamber Master made a deal with him.
He could choose to join the Luminous Jade Chamber as it’s third Supreme Elder or even a guest elder and have them back him up so the Yan Immortal Dynasty could not do anything to him. In that way, he could get his revenge without any hindrances.
Of course, they would also talk about the Golden Core Realm cave abode with them and ask for its location politely at first, and if they didn’t agree to it, they would destroy the Yan Immortal Dynasty with the help of their Supreme Elder.
Right now, more than 10 Acquired Realm experts had arrived from the Luminous Jade Chamber to aid him. Their cultivation varied from the Fifth Stage of Acquired Realm to the Ninth Stage of Acquired Realm.
Gong Jian had come with a foolproof plan!
"As you say, senior. Shall we attack the Sword Seeking Sect now? I don’t think you need to step in personally-"
"No! I shall finish those vermin myself!" Gomg Jian cut off the words of the Acquired Realm cultivator as he looked at him fiercely.
The cultivator quickly bowed and apologized.
"Let’s go!" He spoke firmly, turning into a streak of light and disappearing into the direction of the Sword Seeking Sect.
All the other cultivators also followed behind him.
...
Meanwhile, the Eternal Peak.
All the Yan Dynasty experts were in a frenzy as the news of the destruction of 3 Acquired Realm factions reached them.
At this moment, Tian Yongheng suddenly flew out of the cave abode. All the other people, including Yan Jingfei and Yan Guo flew up with flying swords too.
"Senior, did you receive the news too..." Yan Jingfei was about to ask this worriedly, but her expression froze at the words Tian Yongheng said next.
"That person is heading towards the Sword Seeking Sect right now. There’s no time."
At the mention of this, the hearts of Jia Changxun and Feng Zhen who were nervously watching all of this sank. They were deeply indebted to the Sword Seeking Sect for having raised them and opening up their path to immortality.
However, they were not unreasonable and did not have any unrealistic expectation. A mighty figure who could bury 3 Acquired Realm forces in less than 10 days was undoubtedly not someone the Sword Seeking Sect could handle. There was no hope at all.
But at this moment, Tian Yongheng suddenly spoke up, "I’m going to help the Sword Seeking Sect. Do any of you want to come with me?"
His words immediately caused a stir among everybody present.
Are you crazy?
Everyone was in immense shock and they couldn’t believe his words, except for Yan Jingfei, of course. She believed that since her senior had said it, then he was confident enough to deal with it.
She immediately spoke up afterwards with no hesitation at all, "I’ll come with you, senior!"
Her words also caused everybody to be in immense shock.
In the last few years, her cultivation had increased yet again and had reached the Eighth Stage of Foundation Establishment Realm. Right now, she could fight on par with cultivators at the Third Stage of Acquired Realm.
Suddenly, at this moment, all the people present also spoke up one after another. They were all prideful cultivators, and even though they valued their lives the most, they knew that they would still die sooner if they stayed here. After all, only the Supreme Elders of the Yan Immortal Dynasty’s three sects could stop the Innate Realm expert who was wrecking havoc and acting recklessly.
It was absolutely impossible for the those mighty figures to take action just because of them, even the seventh princess and the second prince.
This was like their last bit of struggle before death, and they chose to accept their fate.
Tian Yongheng nodded slightly. He couldn’t help but feel delighted inwardly. It had been barely 2 minutes since the news had reached them, however, the moment he heard of it, he had already gone into the simulation and fought against a hundred Gao Fushengs.
He won in less than 30 seconds with absolute power, using all the tricks he had!
Immediately afterwards, he entered a simulation with 300 Gao Fushengs. He burst out with power and annihilated all of them within a minute and thirty seconds!
Even right now, he had entered the virtual battle and was fighting against 500 Gao Fushengs. Even though time was running out, he had to be completely sure of defeating Gong Jian, otherwise, it would all be in vain.
On the other hand, the people around him were starting to get more nervous the more time passed.
What is senior doing? Why is he not saying anything?
They couldn’t help but think that Tian Yongheng might’ve also felt somewhat scared, so he may withdraw his plan of helping out the Sword Seeking Sect.
5 minutes passed in complete silence. Just when everyone was starting to lose hope, they were suddenly wrapped in powerful Spiritual Energy.
Tian Yongheng opened his eyes as he spoke indifferently, "Let’s go."
*Boom!*
A loud sonic boom sounded as everyone in the Eternal Peak, including all the disciples disappeared along with Tian Yongheng.
"Th-this is!?"
"Speed of sound! We’re actually traveling beyond the speed of sound!"
"Heavens! Are Acquired Realm experts really capable of this!?"
Yan Jingfei was secretly shocked too. Although she was not as surprised as the rest, she had still not expected this.
He’s only in the Acquired Realm and yet...
This was clearly the speed of a cultivator in the later stages of Innate Realm!
She couldn’t even dare to imagine the true limits and potential of Tian Yongheng. She knew only one thing, and that was; this being is far beyond the understandings of mortals.
