“What happened in the cave? I can feel a convergence of a large amount of energy!” asked Beiming Tianpeng with a solemn look on his face.
Shan Dachuan, his protector and a pseudo-God, said, “There isn’t another fellow in the cave, right? If that’s the case, things will be troublesome.”
“In that case, let’s brute force our way through the formation. I need to know what exactly is hidden in the cave,” commanded Beiming Tianpeng as he came to a decision.
None of the formation masters dared to disobey his command. After giving the others some commands, they started destroying the formation with brute force. The moment they started their attempt, the formation exploded, sending dust and stones flying everywhere. The overwhelming eruption of energy alarmed everyone, and those who couldn’t retreat in time were sent flying away while coughing blood. Some weaker Saints were even killed by the explosion. If it wasn’t for the fact that the formation had been weakened by the passage of time, the explosion would have been even scarier.
The explosions had also alarmed those farther away from the cave. Yu Caidie and Devil Concubine naturally rushed over with their team, worried that something had happened to Xiang Shaoyun. Some other groups were also rushing over from different directions, curious as to what was happening.
Meanwhile, Xiang Shaoyun was completely unaffected. The two swords combined into one before soaring into the air. Yin and yang revolved as a tai chi diagram formed to create a spectacular scene. The entire explosion was nullified by the diagram. When Beiming Tianpeng and the others saw the Divine Yin Yang Sword, their eyes burned with greed.
“A divine object has indeed appeared! It’s mine!” declared Beiming Tianpeng. He commanded the people by his side, “Go up there and retrieve the weapon.”
He was extremely cautious and did not take the risk himself. Rather, he had his underlings make the move in his stead. He had a feeling that the powers of yin and yang flowing around the sword were not as simple as they seemed. A peak Saint charged over and unleashed a powerful claw at the sword in the sky. However, the powerful claw was instantly shredded into nothingness the moment it neared the yin and yang energies.
“I refuse to believe that I’ll be helpless against a weapon!” roared the Saint as both his palms shot out with more power and grabbed for the sword. He was determined to grab the sword this time.
Alas, the same scene repeated itself. His energy couldn’t damage the revolving energies of yin and yang. In fact, his attempts had even triggered the Divine Yin Yang Sword’s resistance, causing the sword to erupt into a storm of countless yin yang energy swords. Each sword was incredibly dreadful, and numerous cracks instantly appeared in the air as the swords shot toward everyone in the area.
The members of the White Lotus Alliance turned pale with fright and scattered in panic, afraid that they would be struck. They could sense that the powers of the sword weren’t something they could resist. Only those who had reached the pseudo-God Realm could attempt to resist the sword, but even they weren’t able to remain uninjured when facing the sword.
If they were even a tiny bit weaker, they would have been killed instead.
“This divine weapon is actually capable of attacking automatically. It is most definitely the best of the best,” said Beiming Tianpeng in excitement. He ignored everyone around him and drew a pair of icy claws before clawing at the Divine Yin Yang Sword.
He soared into the air while the projection of a heavenly peng manifested behind him. A formidable might latched onto his body as he unleashed his claws. It was as though a heavenly peng was clawing out, tearing through the air with a prowess as powerful as a regular God’s attack.
Meanwhile, Shan Dachuan hefted his axe, channeled all his strength into the weapon, and unleashed a furious swing at the yin and yang energies. The other pseudo-Gods kept watch cautiously, making sure that nobody could approach the area.
However, they would need more than determination to prevent the approach of some people. A cultivator mounted on a green jiao that had almost fully transformed into a dragon charged over. The green jiao was incredibly powerful, and as they arrived, the jiao unleashed a green claw upon the Divine Yin Yang Sword.
By the time the White Lotus Sect members noticed his arrival, it was already too late to stop him. Apart from that, two aliens had also appeared from nowhere, and using two different abilities, they attacked the position beneath the sword. Evidently, they weren’t aiming for the sword.
With the appearance of the new parties, chaos unfolded. The Divine Yin Yang Sword seemed to have sensed the threat as it once again erupted with a boundless radiance. The yin and yang energy swords slashed out in two directions with an even stronger might. It was as though a peerless expert was wielding the sword as it attacked its attackers in an indiscriminate fashion.
“A mere god-grade weapon can forget about stopping me. Break!” Beiming Tianpeng was filled with confidence as he grabbed at the incoming energy sword and crushed it.
Shan Dachuan had also successfully slashed the energy sword before him into pieces, displaying his formidable combat prowess. As for the green jiao, it was similarly powerful as its green claw crushed the incoming energy sword and continued on toward the sword.
The two aliens were no pushovers either. With their innate abilities, they charged into the area covered by the yin and yang energies, heading straight for the alien corpse in the cave.
The Divine Yin Yang Sword had just taken its complete form, and its sword spirit would not allow anyone to lay hands on it so easily. The sword aura changed, and time itself seemed to stop. All the encroaching attackers were momentarily stunned.
Whoosh!
Once again, the sword swung, instantly forcing the encroaching experts to retreat with their blood spurting out. They all sported a sorry appearance as they withdrew with injuries.
“That’s the power of yin and yang! Is this the legendary Divine Yin Yang Sword?” Beiming Tianpeng exclaimed in alarm after withdrawing far away.
“Green Dragon, seize the weapon!” commanded the man mounted atop the green jiao confidently.
Roar!
With a roar, the green jiao enlarged. Its domineering aura swept out as its green claw shot out like a heavenly punishment. It was as though a Demon God was personally attacking, to the point even the Divine Yin Yang Sword’s energy was suppressed.
At this time, the man seated cross-legged in the middle of the yin yang energies opened his eyes. Two sharp beams punctured the heavens as yin and yang energies erupted from his body and instantly fused into the Divine Yin Yang Sword’s energy. With a wave of his hand, a boundless aura emerged from the Divine Yin Yang Sword.
“None of you are qualified to snatch my divine sword,” declared the youth amid the yin yang energies.
