Chapter 1518: Chapter 1518: When the Dust Settles
Tu Yang Divine Emperor is dead.
However, he did not die under Jing Yan’s Chaos Sword, but was instead crushed into powder with a slap by Elder Chui Feng.
Originally, Tu Yang Divine Emperor and Elder Chui Feng were equally matched, and it was difficult for them to determine a winner in their skirmish. But when Jing Yan wielded the Chaos Sword and locked his killing intent onto Tu Yang, Tu Yang’s mind fell into turmoil.
In a battle between Divine Emperors, especially when evenly matched, how can one afford to be distracted? As soon as Tu Yang Divine Emperor lost focus, Elder Chui Feng struck him down.
At this point, Wanbao Daoist and Tu Yang Divine Emperor from Wanbao Divine Hall have fallen one after another. The rest of the martial artists from Wanbao Divine Hall, from ordinary God Lords to Divine Sovereigns, all lacked the will to fight.
"Saint Master Jing Yan!"
"Wanbao Daoist is dead, and Wanbao Divine Hall has no leader. From now on, it cannot possibly contend with All Paths Sacred Land. Shouldn’t this matter end here?" Holy Sword Sect Master Bu Yi looked at Jing Yan and said.
At this moment, Bu Yi’s heart felt chilly.
He regretted it!
If he had known this would be the outcome, his Holy Sword Sect should have allied with All Paths Sacred Land. Not only would they gain a tenth of the resource profits, but also align with All Paths as closely as possible.
Just like the Purple Beauty Sect is doing now.
From now on, it would be difficult for the Purple Beauty Sect not to stand out in the All Paths World. In the All Paths World, apart from All Paths Sacred Land, what other force could compare to the Purple Beauty Sect?
However, regretting now is too late.
"You think? And what makes you think this matter should end here?" Jing Yan turned his gaze to Bu Yi and said mockingly.
Bu Yi’s face darkened.
"Saint Master Jing Yan, do you intend to wipe out Wanbao Divine Hall and the God Lords of our allied sects completely? If you do so, how many Divine Sovereign Martial Artists would remain in the All Paths World? The overall strength of the All Paths World would plummet!" Bu Yi quickly retorted.
"So what?" Jing Yan responded with a cold laugh, unconcerned.
"Jing Yan, don’t push us too hard! If you don’t give us a way out, we’ll fight to the death. Even if you manage to kill us all in the end, there will still be many from All Paths Sacred Land who will die with us!" Bu Yi threatened.
At this point, Wanbao Divine Hall and the allied sect God Lord level martial artists still numbered many.
From the onset of the battle till now, although many God Lord level martial artists on both sides have died, especially at the start when Wanbao Divine Hall lost a mass of God Lords to over two hundred Jiuxuan Fierce Fire Arrays, many still lived.
The Divine Sovereign level God Lords suffered almost no casualties.
If these people desperately fought back, even Jing Yan, Chui Feng, and Chuo Yan, three strong Divine Emperors, would need some time to defeat them. During this time, the God Lords of Wanbao Divine Hall could indeed still harm members of All Paths Sacred Land.
"Threaten me in this moment? Courting death!"
Jing Yan did not waste words with Bu Yi any longer. Swinging the Colorful Cloud Sword, Sword Light pierced forth.
Sect Master Bu Yi, this Divine Sovereign level expert, faced with the Chaos Sword sweeping forward, frantically tried to resist, cursing Jing Yan repeatedly. However, he could not stop it; he could not fend off Jing Yan’s Chaos Sword no matter how hard he tried.
With one sweep of the sword, Sect Master Bu Yi died and fell.
Bu Yi’s death made all the minds within Wanbao Divine Hall tighten to the extreme, and they began to grow restless, each ready to fight to the death.
If Jing Yan completely denied them a chance to live, they were sure to fight desperately. After all, with death being inevitable, they might as well drag someone down with them before they go.
"Listen carefully, all of you." At this moment, Jing Yan spoke, scanning all members of Wanbao Divine Hall.
"To those who did not kill members of All Paths Sacred Land during the skirmish, I can let them go. But those who have killed members of All Paths Sacred Land, I will not let go! Those who wounded or drew blood from martial artists of All Paths Sacred Land must die!" Jing Yan’s voice echoed throughout the scene.
Martial artists who did not kill members of All Paths Sacred Land sighed in relief upon hearing this, while those with the blood of All Paths Sacred Land members on their hands turned pale.
"Jing Yan, you wretched brat, don’t act arrogant! Perhaps others fear you, but my Thousand Hands Sect does not fear you. We’ll fight you to the end! Thousand Hands Sect disciples, heed my command: kill!" the Thousand Hands Sect Master angrily commanded.
Earlier, he had killed several God Lords below the Emperor level from All Paths Sacred Land. According to Jing Yan’s statement, he was clearly doomed.
The Thousand Hands Sect Master cursed Jing Yan angrily, but he did not charge at Jing Yan. Instead, as he ordered his disciples to attack, he suddenly turned and swiftly flew in the opposite direction, evidently planning to escape.
"Hmph, do you think you can escape?" Jing Yan narrowed his eyes slightly.
A shadow of a sword appeared, and Sword Light, like lightning, rapidly pursued and directly struck down the Thousand Hands Sect Master.
"Do it! Kill all those whose hands are stained with our comrades’ blood!" Jing Yan said sternly once more.
"Hiss!"
"Boom!"
"Bang bang bang!"
The battle erupted again between the two sides.
However, martial artists in the Wanbao Divine Hall camp who did not kill members of All Paths Sacred Land did not engage, keeping their distance. Of course, there may have been a few daring individuals who were ready to coexist with Wanbao Divine Hall till the end, but they were very few.
Under the control of Jing Yan, Chui Feng, and Chuo Yan, martial artists from Wanbao Divine Hall and the five other major forces were continuously slain.
After about a dozen breaths, the fighting ceased.
The subsequent matters were quite straightforward.
Wanbao Divine Hall was disbanded! Mingtai Sect and the five other major forces were henceforth incorporated into All Paths Sacred Land, becoming affiliated forces.
In the future, from Sect Master to elders in these five major forces, important positions would be directly appointed by All Paths Sacred Land. Original elders would need to pass through All Paths Sacred Land’s inspection to continue their roles. Anyone unable to pass would be removed.
None of the surviving members from these five major forces dared to object. For them, surviving was an immense stroke of fortune. As for their forces joining All Paths Sacred Land, it wasn’t the worst outcome.
To be honest, even if Saint Master Jing Yan wanted them disbanded like Wanbao Divine Hall, they’d have to accept it, just like the case with True Yang Sect.
"Elder Chuo Yan, I’ll leave the subsequent tasks here in your capable hands. Elder Chui Feng, you’ll have to endure some inconvenience and lead the team to Wanbao Divine Hall’s headquarters to evaluate their Treasure Vault."
"Sect Master Ding Luo, I won’t say much in gratitude. Soon, I’ll ask you to accompany Elder Chui Feng to Wanbao Divine Hall. After evaluating Wanbao Divine Hall’s resources, Purple Beauty Sect can receive one-tenth."
Jing Yan quickly issued several instructions, delegating tasks. He then left with Xiao Feng.
