Within a ten-mile radius of the Wuyun Sect, the area was shrouded in darkness, spatial rifts appeared everywhere, and streaks of ferocious lightning continuously struck the ground, exuding an aura of destruction.
Li Xiaotian, along with the surrounding powerful onlookers, stood ten miles away, watching the terrifying scene unfold.
Everyone's faces were filled with shock, their bodies trembling subconsciously, their hearts filled with awe.
This was the might of heaven! No matter how strong human power was, it could not defy the heavens!
The Wuyun Old Ancestor was a mid-stage Heavenly-tier expert, and even during the ancient prosperous era, he was one of the top powerhouses.
Yet, even so, he could not resist the might of heaven at this moment and successfully emerge.
"Ahhh! You damned heavens! Are you truly set against me? I only wish to come out and slaughter all these ants!"
Even from a great distance, the Wuyun Old Ancestor's roars could be heard.
"Boom!!!"
As if the world possessed consciousness, an even thicker bolt of lightning was instantly unleashed, engulfing the palace where the Wuyun Old Ancestor slumbered.
The terrifying power contained within the lightning sent a chill through everyone present, their bodies turning cold.
"Too strong!!!"
Someone muttered, their eyes filled with fear, it was unclear whether they were referring to the Wuyun Old Ancestor or the heavenly might before them.
"The backlash from heaven and earth is too strong, and the Wuyun Old Ancestor's strength is also formidable. If he were to emerge, it would likely destabilize the world. Therefore, the more fiercely he resists, the more terrifying the heavenly might becomes."
An aged, experienced expert spoke, perhaps aware of some hidden secrets.
Meanwhile, Li Xiaotian's eyes flickered, his face a picture of contemplation. When the Tian family's old ancestor returned, the world had also been blocked by thunder, but it hadn't stopped the opponent.
He wondered if the world's obstruction of these experts was conscious or unconscious. Furthermore, why were powerhouses at the level of the Tongtian Sword Master, who were even stronger than Heavenly-tier experts, unaffected?
After a brief moment of distraction, Li Xiaotian snapped back to attention. He glanced at the area covered by lightning, and a conjecture suddenly formed in his mind: the Wuyun Old Ancestor might not be able to emerge.
With such terrifying heavenly might, even if the Wuyun Old Ancestor managed to endure it, his strength would likely decline significantly.
Thinking of this, Li Xiaotian glanced at the Wuyun Sect members present, a hint of killing intent flashing in his eyes.
He decided not to wait any longer. Previously, he had assumed the Wuyun Old Ancestor would emerge, so he hadn't rushed to exterminate the Wuyun Sect. But now, things were different.
With this thought, Li Xiaotian transmitted messages to Long Shiwu and others, preparing to act together and catch the Wuyun Sect completely off guard, slaughtering all their surviving members.
As for whether the Wuyun Old Ancestor would eventually emerge, he would deal with that alone.
"Kill!!!"
Li Xiaotian suddenly roared, his figure vanishing from his original position. He reappeared not far from Wu Hai, his long saber cleaving out.
"Li Xiaotian!!! You're courting death!!!"
Upon seeing this, Wu Hai's face filled with horror. He had never expected Li Xiaotian to attack at this moment. The Old Ancestor had already appeared, so why would the opponent attack him instead of fleeing?
But Wu Hai had no time to think further and could only roar and resist with all his might. At this moment, he was no match for Li Xiaotian and could only fight back desperately.
"Kill!!!"
Simultaneously, Long Shiwu and the others also moved, charging towards the Wuyun Sect members.
The great battle commenced instantly!
"Boom!!!"
With a thunderous roar, Wu Hai's body was sent flying backward, spitting blood, his expression filled with terror.
Immediately after, Li Xiaotian followed up, his saber striking out again.
"No!!! Li Xiaotian! You can't kill me!!!"
Wu Hai roared, fear consuming him, yet he remained unwilling to accept his fate! The Old Ancestor had awakened, and the situation was about to be turned around, saving the Wuyun Sect.
But now, Li Xiaotian had attacked, giving him no chance at all.
"Pfft!"
Wu Hai's head flew off, his eyes filled with unwillingness and resentment.
At the same time, all the onlookers present were stunned, each with an expression of disbelief.
From the moment Li Xiaotian attacked to killing Wu Hai, it took less than a few breaths. Many of them hadn't even reacted before Wu Hai was already slain by Li Xiaotian.
What they found hard to believe was why Li Xiaotian dared to attack the Wuyun Sect members at this moment. Attacking now would only further enrage the Wuyun Old Ancestor.
"Kill!!!"
At this very moment, Long Shiwu and the others were also wreaking havoc, hunting down all the Wuyun Sect members.
After slaying Wu Hai, Li Xiaotian did not stop, but instead, charged towards the other Emperor-level experts of the Wuyun Sect with his saber.
"Old Ancestor, save me!!!"
The Wuyun Sect members cried out one after another, their faces filled with panic. The Old Ancestor was about to emerge, and then Li Xiaotian's people would all die.
However, they wouldn't live to see that moment.
At this moment, Li Xiaotian was like a demon god, moving swiftly across the battlefield. Wherever he passed, there were corpses everywhere. No Emperor-level martial artist could withstand a casual saber strike from Li Xiaotian.
"Ahhh! How dare you, mere ant?!!!"
Within the lightning, the Wuyun Old Ancestor roared. He had noticed Li Xiaotian's actions, his voice filled with fury. The opponent was slaughtering his people, and he could only watch.
What made him even more enraged was that the opponent was killing people in front of him, which was the greatest insult to him.
"You killed my sect's disciples, and when I emerge, I will make your life worse than death!!!"
The Wuyun Old Ancestor roared, but Li Xiaotian was given no chance, continuing his frantic hunt. If the Emperor-level martial artists were finished, he would move on to the King-level. In any case, all the Wuyun Sect members, except the Wuyun Old Ancestor himself, were to die.
At this moment, the surrounding spectators were already stunned. Li Xiaotian's audacity and ruthlessness had shocked them all. The opponent dared to attack the Wuyun Sect members even knowing the Wuyun Old Ancestor was about to emerge. This was courting death!
At the same time, they were even more astonished by Li Xiaotian's strength; it was incredibly powerful, comparable to some veteran Overlord-level experts.
The slaughter continued, and the number of Wuyun Sect members dwindled. They attempted to escape, but Li Xiaotian gave them no opportunity.
A few minutes later, all the Wuyun Sect disciples present were dead, with no survivors.
A first-rate sect was thus annihilated by Li Xiaotian!
At the same time, a chill ran down their spines. If Li Xiaotian were to be killed by the Wuyun Old Ancestor in the end, then so be it.
But they feared if he managed to escape this calamity. With his strength, and in the absence of any Heavenly-tier experts emerging, no sect would be his match.
"Ahhh! You infuriate me! Ant, I swear, upon my emergence, I will slaughter everyone related to you!!!"
The Wuyun Old Ancestor continued to roar, his voice accompanied by the sound of terrifying lightning, deafening and chilling to the bone.
"Boom!"
Suddenly, a resounding explosion came from the palace deep within the lightning, followed by a massive fist silhouette that shot out, heading directly for Li Xiaotian.
Li Xiaotian's expression was grave. Without hesitation, he met the attack with his saber, simultaneously channeling the power of the Demonic Sword within him.
Even though the Wuyun Old Ancestor's attack had been weakened by the heavens, Li Xiaotian dared not be arrogant enough to believe he could withstand it.
