Could he be a peak Great Grandmaster?

“And for those hidden forces in black robes seeking revenge, come find me. As a Sword God, I am always waiting, but remember to bring a substantial number of Spirit Crystals. Broke bastards don’t deserve to die at my hands!”

Xu Yan’s cold voice came once more.

Everyone took in a deep breath, this was a direct declaration of war against a particular power!

A force powerful to mobilize two accomplished Great Grandmasters must be one of the top powers, and one with a peak Great Grandmaster at the helm.

Was this one man actually suppressing the whole top power on his own?

The two men in black robes felt an intense life-or-death crisis and their aura abruptly changed amidst their horror.

An eerie energy emerged, and their scimitars were enveloped in a layer of chilling energy, as if encased in frost, making the surrounding temperatures plummet.

This eerie energy seemed to carry the breath of death itself.

The other party was prepared to fight to the death and had activated some form of powerful Martial Arts secret technique.

It was obvious at glance, this secret technique must have come at a great cost.

But in a life-or-death situation, such costs seemed insignificant.

“A secret technique based in Martial Arts? Heh!”

Xu Yan sneered, and with a swing of his sword, it seemed as if all living things fell silent, and the mountains and rivers were destroyed. The pervasive mountain and river images engulfed the eerie energy,—including everything surrounding him.

Along with the extinction of the mountains and rivers, this eerie energy was also swept away by the forces of the destruction.

“No! What is this…”

The man in the black robe widened his eyes, full of incredulity.

What kind of swordsmanship was this?

Why was it so bizarre and powerful?

His body was disintegrating bit by bit, turning into ashes along with the mountains and rivers.

Boom!

One fell with a swing of Xu Yan’s sword, while the Descending Dragon Palm emitted a vigorous and masculine power, like an enraged golden dragon—the sky and earth changed colours because of its rage.

The eerie energy released by the descending palm of the man in the black robe who used a secret technique seemed to have met its nemesis. Under this intense Yin strength, it was as weak as paper, unable to resist at all!

“How is this possible!”

The man in the black robe exploded, crushed by the terrifying might of the dragon, scattering into flying ashes!

Peace returned to the world.

The Cang River flowed as usual, and the storm that felt like the end of the world had disappeared without a trace.

Only one man stood proudly in mid-air with a sword in his hand.

The spectators fell silent in this moment!

In their minds, they engraved a name: Sword God Xu Yan!

A young man with a sword, striking down two accomplished Great Grandmasters outside Canglan Island!

“Speaking of prodigies in this world, no one can compete with Xu Yan!”

“Xu Yan alone suppresses all the talents of the Inner Domain!”

“It is foreseeable that in the near future, Xu Yan will be the number one in the Inner Realm Martial Arts!”

The Grandmasters who were watching the battle made these remarks with deep feelings.

Xu Yan is young but he has slain an accomplished Great Grandmaster. Perhaps it won’t take long for him to slay a peak Great Grandmaster.

A true unrivalled genius, none can match!

Xie Lingfeng and Hu Shan were greatly shocked at this moment.

The power of Xu Yan had far exceeded their imaginations. He was merely at the Innate Realm but had already killed two accomplished Great Grandmasters single – handedly.

Is this the terrifying aspect of the true Martial Arts?

Xie Lingfeng sighed in his heart. He was known as the pinnacle of swordsmanship and the strongest genius in a thousand years. However, compared to Xu Yan, the gap was quite large.

What comforted him was that among the prodigies in the Inner Domain, he was still at the top, still possessing the qualifications and confidence to look down on other prodigies.

Xie Lingfeng had given up the idea of catching up with Xu Yan’s pace. He knew his limits. The biggest wish of his life was to understand the sword with his heart and step into the real Sword Dao.

“Brother Xu, this battle has truly shaken the Inner Domain.”

Xie Lingfeng came over and said with emotion.

In the Seven-star Study Palace, he had blasted Yin Hong with one palm, which was shocking enough.

Now, outside Canglan Island, he fought two accomplished Great Grandmasters alone and killed them. This deterrence was far stronger than blasting Yin Hong.

After all, Yin Hong had just entered the realm of the Great Grandmaster, and was a weakling among them.

Some powerful Great Grandmasters, although they had heard about Xu Yan blasting Yin Hong, didn’t take it to heart. They thought that Xu Yan had used some secret technique to temporarily increase his power to blast Yin Hong. They felt that if they exerted all their efforts, they could probably do the same.

After all, the actual strength of Yin Hong, a new recruit to the Great Grandmasters, was unknown to everyone.

But it was guessed that his strength was not strong among the Great Grandmasters and belonged to the third-tier Great Grandmasters. Xu Yan blasting him seemed spectacular and shocking.

However, the accomplished Great Grandmasters, including the peak Great Grandmasters, didn’t really care much.

Now, Xu Yan stood against two and killed two accomplished Great Grandmasters, both of whom were the stronger ones. His deterrent power surged in an instant.

Even the peak Great Grandmasters have to be cautious.

“It’s just an empty title, not worth mentioning!”

Xu Yan waved his hand dismissively.

The three of them continued on to Canglan Island.

“The accomplished Great Grandmaster is still very powerful. He was able to fight me for such a long time and his might was extremely astounding. A peak Great Grandmaster must be even more powerful.”

Xu Yan’s voice was laden with awe.

He had underestimated the accomplished Great Grandmasters, and more so, the peak Great Grandmasters.

An accomplished Great Grandmaster can stir up nature’s spiritual energy and almost control it for his own use. The peak Great Grandmaster—has he already mastered controlling some of nature’s spiritual energy to amplify his fighting power?

Definitely not to be underestimated.

Xu Yan felt that with his current power, he might not be able to defeat a peak Great Grandmaster.

However, a peak Great Grandmaster might not be able to defeat him either.

“Once I have fully broken through the Innate Realm, even a peak Great Grandmaster can be killed.”

Xu Yan thought to himself.

The three of them made it to Canglan Island where all the buildings were intact.

Xu Yan headed directly to where Yin Hong was located, and saw that the door to his residence had been opened, all as expected.

After an extensive search, a hidden room was finally found.

Upon opening the hidden room, it was filled with Spirit Crystals and rows of jade boxes. Inside these boxes were seventh-grade spiritual medicine.

There were altogether eleven strands of seventh-grade spiritual medicine.

There wasn’t a single strand of sixth-grade spiritual medicine; in the Inner Domain, such medicine was indeed rare.

Xu Yan did a rough count. There were less than a hundred thousand Spirit Crystals, and along with the eleven strands of seventh-grade spiritual medicine, there were about thirty more strands.

What relieved Xu Yan was that in the secret room, there was a box containing spirit bills amounting to a few hundred thousand.

As for the receipts for items stored at the Tianbao Pavilion, there was none.

While this hidden room was indeed concealed and necessitated the strength of a Grandmaster to open, it had remained untouched, not emptied out by anyone.

Clearly, it was left for him intentionally. Those who removed items from Canglan Island were also afraid that if they did not leave anything, they may provoke Xu Yan and invite trouble.

“This fellow Yin Hong, is kind of poor.”

Xu Yan heaved a sigh.

“I wonder who the benefactor behind him is. Are they rich or not, will they seek revenge for him?”

Xu Yan was somewhat looking forward to the benefactor behind Yin Hong seeking revenge.

Since they were able to become Yin Hong’s benefactor, it meant they were not simple; they would not be weak either, right?

Undoubtedly they must be wealthy. If they came to seek revenge, would he become rich all of a sudden?

Xu Yan shook his head. Based on the current situation, the benefactor behind Yin Hong had no intention of seeking revenge for him.

“Take everything except the Spirit Crystals.”

Xu Yan took away the spiritual medicine and spirit bills, and shut the door of the secret room.

All were stuffed into the box given by Yuying as a gift, and would be taken back when returning to the wasteland.

“Brother Xie, Hu Shan, find a place and rest for a while. I have some insights and will stay on Canglan Island for a few days.”

Xu Yan said aloud.

“Brother Xu, are you not afraid of the black-robed peak Great Grandmaster coming back?”

Xie Lingfeng reminded him.

“No worries, let them come if they want. They can’t do anything to me.”

Xu Yan said indifferently.

“Hu Shan and I will do our best not to let people disturb Brother Xu’s meditation.”

Xie Lingfeng nodded in agreement.

After instructing Xie Lingfeng and Hu Shan, Xu Yan went to a small mountain peak on Canglan Island, and sat cross-legged under an ancient tree.

He wanted to contemplate the principles of Tongxuan Realm.

After battling the two accomplished Great Grandmasters, he had gained more epiphanies, and understanding the Tongxuan Realm was just an insight away.

“The Tongxuan Realm is a transformation of True Qi into True Yuan. True Yuan merges with nature’s spiritual energy, connecting to the mysteries of the universe. It controls nature’s spiritual energy, and in the early stages interfaces with the Great Power of Heaven and Earth.”

“I’ve already comprehended the subtleties of True Qi and have a direction on how to refine it into True Yuan. As for its fusion with the spiritual energy of the world…”

With his eyes slightly closed, in his mind Xu Yan visualized all that his master explained when passing on the art of Tongxuan Realm.

Gradually, the practice of Tongxuan Realm surfaced in his mind, linking with the Innate Realm. The method of breaking into the Tongxuan Realm, and the specific practices all became clear and distinct..
