"Clean the outer sect, the corpses will be like a mountain."
"Mm, this is best; we won't let a single person go!" Fang Zixi nodded.
After observing for half an hour, Tan Yun extended both of his hands. As his ten fingers flicked, a stream of ancestral power burst forth, dispersing and embedding itself into the formation screen.
A moment later, Tan Yun's hands stopped moving. Looking down from the sky, the city defense formation surrounding the Elysium Sect looked as if it was adorned with countless ancestral power stars.
"Ready," Tan Yun replied with a slight smile. He waved his right arm downward, and as he uttered the word "open," thousands of ancestral power stars on the formation screen below began to move rapidly, forming a portal.
Immediately, to Fang Zixi's astonishment, the formation within the portal vanished, revealing a grand entrance to the Elysium Sect.
"Let's go!" Tan Yun took Fang Zixi's hand and flew into the air above the outer sect of the Elysium Sect. With another wave of his right arm, the portal created by the ancestral power stars disappeared.
From now on, aside from Tan Yun, no one in the Elysium Sect could leave the sect.
"Jin Ni, Mu Xin, Clear Shadow, you all come out!"
With a single thought, eleven primordial chaos divine swords of different attributes flew out from his forehead, swirling above his head.
Then, Tan Yun summoned the primordial chaos god-slaying sword, wielding it along with Fang Zixi, who also summoned her divine sword, and they dove down toward the outer sect region!
"Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh—"
"Boom, boom, boom!"
Tan Yun swung his sword fiercely with his right hand, and instantly, sword auras stretching for millions of zhang erupted, collapsing the void and devouring the buildings below within a radius of tens of thousands of zhang.
"Ah! Who is attacking us!"
"No... spare my life!"
"Help... help!"
"…"
In an instant, over ten thousand outer sect disciples perished, and those who heard the commotion rushed out of the buildings, forming a dark mass in the air above the outer sect.
"Who dares to wreak havoc in my Elysium Sect!" The elder of the outer sect flew out from the palace and stood in mid-air. However, when he saw Fang Zixi, he looked horrified and screamed in terror:
"All outer sect high-ranking members, listen up! The enemy is the palace master of the Heavenly Gate Divine Palace, Fang Zixi. She isn't dead, everyone run for your lives!"
As the elder of the outer sect roared in panic, he summoned the token to activate the Protective Sect Formation, hoping to open the formation and let the disciples escape.
But to his horror, the connection between the token and the Protective Sect Formation had vanished. "What is happening? Why has the token failed!"
"What do you think?" A cold voice echoed down from the void. The elder looked up and saw Tan Yun, with his white hair flowing, gazing down at him.
Before he could even think about escaping, Jin Ni, circling above Tan Yun, pierced through the void, stabbing into his forehead and exiting through the back of his head.
The elder of the outer sect, with his soul extinguished, fell into a pool of blood, dying with his eyes wide open.
The elder's loud voice had reached the ears of all outer sect disciples. Some were so frightened they curled up in fear; others fled in all directions, while some headed towards the Mountain Gate.
Holding the primordial chaos god-slaying sword, every step Tan Yun took in the outer sect region resulted in the eleven primordial chaos divine swords circling overhead killing hundreds!
Separated from Tan Yun, Fang Zixi swung her sword from above the outer sect region. Each time she struck, the powerful sword auras devoured hundreds of disciples, leaving them without a burial place!
"Boom, boom, boom!"
Suddenly, a massive bell measuring millions of zhang emerged above the outer sect region, resonating with three tolls.
The melodious chime seemed to impart a magical quality, its sound not loud but clearly echoed throughout every corner of the Elysium Sect...
