On this day, in the Southern Region of Lin Yuan Continent, deep within the Qingxuan Mountain Range.
"What the hell is going on?"
At this moment, a Cultivator who was collecting Spiritual Plants nearby accidentally stumbled into an ancient Secret Realm.
Facing the powerful beings within the Secret Realm, he quickly made a decision.
"I must immediately report this to the Sect; this kind of Opportunity is definitely not something I can claim alone."
He unhesitatingly used a communication jade talisman to inform his Sect.
This astonishing phenomenon quickly alarmed the various forces in the Southern Region.
The strongest Sect in the Southern Region, Qingxiao Sect, quickly dispatched Cultivators to investigate.
Before long, the people of Qingxiao Sect learned that a Secret Realm of the Qingxuan Sword Sect had appeared. The Qingxuan Sword Sect was a Sword Dao Holy Land from the ancient times on the Lin Yuan Continent, and once the number one Sect on the Lin Yuan Continent.
However, even with such power, it still perished in a major Heaven and Earth Tribulation.
In the past, the various Sects would have undoubtedly suffered countless casualties in their struggle for such an Immortal Opportunity.
But today was different from the past.
Immortal Venerable Han's prestige had already spread across the Continent, and the moment this ancient Immortal Sect ruin appeared,
Almost without any hesitation, the highest echelons of the various Sects instantly reached a consensus.
Such an ancient Immortal Opportunity should naturally be reported to the Immortal Venerable first.
…
In just a few days, the Qingxuan Mountain Range was already heavily guarded by the elite forces of various Sects.
Law Vessels with flowing light hovered in the sky, Formation Flags emitting powerful fluctuations sealed off the surroundings, and above, the Divine Thoughts of various Cultivators intertwined into a net, ensuring that no scoundrel dared to approach even an inch.
Suddenly,
The space above the firmament rippled slightly.
A figure appeared.
Almost at the same moment this figure appeared, the Ascended Immortal Old Ancestors of the various Sects, no matter how majestic they usually were, all seemed to have transformed, their faces brimming with smiles.
"We respectfully welcome Immortal Venerable Han's arrival!"
These Old Ancestors, who had lived for countless years, now held themselves in extremely low regard.
Over the years, these Sect Old Ancestors had come to realize a few things, knowing that Han Xuanji was traveling the four directions, intentionally seeking out some "special" places.
"Mm."
Han Xuanji spoke faintly, his voice calm yet clearly reaching the ears of every Old Ancestor.
"You are indeed thoughtful."
His Realm had already stepped into the seventh layer of the Ascension Realm, and he hadn't expected such a pleasant surprise right after his Breakthrough.
"I hope this Qingxuan Sword Sect can bring some benefits."
Han Xuanji mused inwardly.
Over the years, he had also dedicated some of his energy to cultivating the Sword Dao, and now he was not far from the second Realm of Sword Immortal.
…
Time slowly passed.
A month went by.
On the Nine Heavens Continent,
On this day, the sky was originally azure and the weather clear.
Suddenly,
Heaven and Earth abruptly changed dramatically.
A terrifying Demonic Qi, without any warning, erupted from the horizon with a roar.
In an instant, the sky seemed to ignite, turning crimson like blood.
Ten blindingly bright suns, impossible to look at directly, materialized. They did not hang high above the Nine Heavens, casting warm sunlight, but instead emitted terrifying high temperatures, carrying the will to incinerate all things, bringing death to the human world.
Ten Suns Across the Sky!
The terrifying high temperature instantly swept across ten thousand li, rivers and lakes evaporating and drying up at a visible speed.
"Hahahahaha!"
"I want these ten suns to hang across the sky, with flames scorching the heavens, to let all of you know that it is all because your so-called Human Race Sword Immortal defied the will of my Yao Race."
A grand and tyrannical voice resounded through Heaven and Earth, shaking Heaven and Earth itself.
"Mortals, this is the consequence of defying the will of Heaven! Provoking Heavenly Might brings forth this calamity!
The suffering you endure today is not the fault of my Yao Race, but rather the arrogant Human Race Sword Immortal who brought this devastating disaster upon you!
If you do not want this human world to be completely reduced to scorched earth, if you do not want all your relatives and friends to be reduced to ashes…
Then go find him, make him roll out, kneel before my Yao Race Holy Flag, and offer his head for execution!
Use his life to appease Heaven's wrath!
Use his blood to extinguish these flames!
Otherwise—
These ten suns' flames will forever hang above your heads, burning your blood until… this Heaven and Earth has no living thing left!"
This was a psychological attack.
Soon, many Cultivators understood this point.
This terrifying Ten Suns Burning Heaven Formation had an extremely wide range of influence. For powerful Cultivators, it might not pose a threat to their lives, but not all of the Human Race were Cultivators.
Cultivators were ultimately a minority; the majority were still weak Mortals.
Therefore, the first to suffer were those ordinary people.
And the Yao Race, precisely, wanted to use this scorched earth for ten thousand li as a chessboard, and billions of living beings as chess pieces, to thoroughly force Han Xuanji into a desperate situation.
If Han Xuanji wanted to break this Formation, he would have to go to Ten Thousand Demons State!
At that time, it would fall right into their trap. The Yao Race had already set up a Heaven and Earth Net. Even if Han Xuanji's Sword Dao was unparalleled, he would undoubtedly fall into an unprecedented bitter battle, or even perish.
If he didn't appear?
Then the world would be in an uproar, public sentiment would turn against him, and the resentment and despair of billions of living beings would entangle him like invisible shackles.
Of course, this kind of "moral kidnapping" could only be effective against Righteous Path Cultivators. If this person didn't care about others in the world, it naturally wouldn't have any effect.
At this moment,
At Shenxuan Sect,
Xuan Weizi and others also quickly understood this point.
"Elder Han is not in the Sect, what should we do?"
"The communication jade talisman doesn't seem to be able to transmit messages… Where exactly is Elder Han?"
Heaven Jade Perfected Person also frowned and cursed:
"Damned Yao Race, truly despicable and shameless."
Fortunately, they quickly thought of having Little White Tiger notify Han Xuanji.
As Han Xuanji's spirit pet, Little White Tiger finally played a huge role for the first time.
Soon,
Han Xuanji, who was thousands of li away, quickly learned of this matter.
"Where did this Yao Race get its confidence?"
On that day, Han Xuanji single-handedly suppressed countless Cultivators of the Devouring Heaven Demonic Sect. The Yao Race couldn't possibly not know this news.
This time, the Yao Race wanted to force him to appear, most likely with considerable confidence.
"It seems that a strong individual from the Heavenly Demon Realm might have descended again. Could it be that the Heavenly Demon Realm can send down strong individuals above the Ascension Realm?"
As thoughts surged in Han Xuanji's mind, he returned to the Nine Heavens Continent again.
When Han Xuanji's figure appeared, many people breathed a sigh of relief.
However, they did not force Han Xuanji to act, but instead analyzed the reasons for the Yao Race's actions.
Everyone knew that this was definitely a trap aimed at Han Xuanji.
To be honest, even if Han Xuanji didn't appear, they wouldn't feel anything was amiss.
If Han Xuanji fell into the trap and perished, that would be the greatest disaster for the entire Eastern Cang State, and the Yao Race would not stop there.
"This Yao Race truly has good schemes."
Even Han Xuanji's state of mind felt annoyed.
He had always developed honestly and never provoked anyone.
Nor had he ever felt that if the Human Race ruled everything, the Yao Race should be exterminated.
But you, the Yao Race, are a bit ungrateful.
Do you really think that I, Han, am easy to bully?
Just as well, he had gained something at the Qingxuan Sword Sect.
