It was like a chess game that he had meticulously arranged. He waved the sword qi off the chessboard and cut it into two.

Emperor Zhao knew that it would probably be very difficult to obtain Hua Jiebing’s Heart Sword.

The Heart Sword was invisible and fused with the world.

Without the Primordial Spirit Array’s seal, it was as difficult as ascending to the heavens to obtain Hua Jiebing’s Heart Sword.

After all, it was impossible for Hua Jiebing to wait foolishly for the Heart Sword to be taken away. Resistance was inevitable. Without the Primordial Spirit Array, it was too difficult to keep Hua Jiebing, who was only at the limit of the eighth realm but could cross realms to fight a nine-realm expert.

In addition, the backup plans he had arranged to stop Hua Jiebing would definitely not work for him completely. When the Primordial Spirit Array shattered, it meant that everything would end.

If Hua Jiebing could not be kept, he would not be able to obtain the Heart Sword.

He originally wanted to obtain the Heart Sword in front of the civil and military officials and extend his lifespan by 500 years. However, he did not expect to be torn apart by a young man and slapped in the face.

Emperor Zhao’s expression was extremely gloomy at this moment.

When his lifespan was about to end, the 500-year life-prolonging method he had planned was broken by a young man. The anger in his heart surged like huge waves.

But he had to remain calm.

Although he had lost the Heart Sword, he still had to show his composure to the civil and military officials.

He still had the immortal blood and still had a chance to extend his life by 500 years. Even without the Heart Sword that suppressed the immortal abnormality in the immortal blood, the Heart Sword could be replaced by other treasures. Although the effect would be much worse, at least… there was still a chance.

In addition, he forcefully suppressed the desire to attack personally. With the Primordial Spirit Array shattered, he, who acted as the array core, was no longer restrained. Previously, when he saw An Le attack, he wanted to stop him, but if he moved, the Primordial Spirit Array would naturally collapse.

Therefore, as the only ninth realm cultivator who could almost stop An Le, he could only watch helplessly as An Le sent out a sword and broke the Primordial Spirit Array, breaking the restraints that covered the entire Imperial City.

Now that the Primordial Spirit Array was shattered, Emperor Zhao was unwilling and did not dare to attack.

He did not know if this strange young man still had any trump cards or if that sword, Green Mountain, could still let the young man erupt with the aura of reaching the ninth realm.

This sword made Emperor Zhao extremely afraid.

Emperor Zhao sat upright on the throne and did not speak. However, his eyes and his dignity caused the entire Imperial City to emit the sound of an ancient bell exploding.

In an instant, the entire Heavenly Profound Palace seemed to have revived at this moment. The clang of armor resounded, and majestic Qi Blood surged in his mind.

Hundreds of Forbidden Guards in silver armor and the Golden Guards in golden armor ran over from the side of the White Jade Square. They held spears, long sabers, and longbows. It was as if thick black clouds covered the sky, and there was the pressure of an army.

On the White Jade Square.

Eunuch Tong, who had failed several times and could not quickly capture and suppress Hua Jiebing with the help of the Primordial Spirit Array, revealed a ferocious and angry gaze.

As a ninth-realm cultivator, he was actually unable to take down an eighth-realm cultivator for a long time. He even let a youth disrupt His Majesty’s plan. The guilt and fear in his heart surged like a torrent.

“Die!”

Countless black shadows darted out from behind him. They were densely packed like beasts, causing the sunlight in the sky to dim a little.

Killing intent suddenly rose and filled the Heavenly Profound Palace. This time, the killing intent was not directed at Hua Jiebing, but at the young man in white sleeves!

As Emperor Zhao’s trusted aide and the closest person to him, Eunuch Tong only needed a look from Emperor Zhao to understand the meaning.

With the Primordial Spirit Array shattered, it was laughable to say that it was a fool’s dream to capture the Heart Sword Jade Guanyin again.

If the Jade Guanyin insisted on leaving Lin’an Prefecture, it would be difficult for Eunuch Tong alone to stop her. There was no need to stop her.

However, the young man had ruined Emperor Zhao’s plan, so he had to stay.

If Hua Jiebing insisted on protecting this youth… perhaps there was still a chance to take down this peerless Jade Guanyin.

An Le floated in the air.

Green Mountain was struck out by his Collapsing Sword Force. At this moment, it flew back and was held in his hand.

Holding Green Mountain diagonally, his white clothes fluttered in the wind.

He raised his head and closed his eyes, facing the heroic qi smoke that broke through the clouds from a hundred thousand feet in the sky and scattered on the mortal world.

This heroic qi smoke had already become thinner and thinner. From the original width of the river, to the tree truck, to the thickness of a woman’s arm, and finally… at this moment, it was as thin as a twig.

The [Heroic Qi Attraction] would eventually end. It was originally a power that borrowed the heroic qi of the world and did not belong to him.

It would naturally leave.

The slender heroic qi turned into a silver thread that seemed to focus on An Le’s glabella.

It became blurry between heaven and earth..

It completely disappeared.

In An Le’s ears, everything seemed to have quietened down.

The Sword Furnace between his eyebrows was silent. Although he was using the [Heroic Qi Attraction], controlling this power required a huge amount of mental power and physical strength.

His Inner Core was dim and his Qi Blood was drained without any Mystic Intent showing.

His condition seemed to have fallen to the bottom of the valley. It was the most dispirited An Le had ever been in his cultivation.

However, there was a sense of joy and exuberance in An Le’s heart. A ferocious tiger was roaring wantonly and to his heart’s content.

Regret?

Naturally, he had no regrets.

Slashing the Heavenly Emperor’s palm, killing five top experts in front of the Heavenly Profound Palace, and even breaking the Primordial Spirit Array!
