The Saintess was a Saint, and not an ordinary one at that. Her cultivation was at least at the Sixth Heavenly Layer, possibly even higher.
However, she was captured alive by the Nether Scorpion Queen and refined into a Saintess Corpse Puppet. She was buried deep underground to protect the eggs of the Nether Scorpion Queen. After countless years of corrosion, her cultivation became lower and lower. She had long fallen below the Saint Realm.
After Xi Qianye obtained her, he refined her once more and hid her in the depths of the Thousand Treasures Mountain's underground Yin Vein. It was no less than the Nine Yin Ghost Origin Formation. Only by borrowing the boundless Yin Qi of the earth to refine and nourish her was her cultivation restored.
However, because the refinement time was too short, the Saintess still did not return to the Saint Realm. However, her cultivation was comparable to that of a Celestial Master.
Moreover, the Saintess was once a Celestial Master. She was extremely talented and had the potential to become a Great Sage.
Xi Qianye suspected that the Saintess was not a cultivator of the Southern Barbarian Continent. She might have come from a mysterious Outer Realm.
This was because there were no legends about the Saintess in the Southern Barbarian Continent. Otherwise, how could there be no information about her in history when a Celestial Master was born?
Moreover, the Nether Scorpion Queen was an Emperor. If it had been active in the Southern Barbarian Continent, it was impossible for there to be no records of it in history. This was obviously inconsistent with the saying that there had never been an Emperor Realm cultivator in the Southern Barbarian Continent.
Therefore, the Nether Scorpion Queen should have come from an unknown Outer Realm. Not long after it came to the Southern Barbarian Continent, it left behind the "breeding ground" and immediately passed away.
The Saintess was once a Celestial Master. Naturally, she had the special aura of a Celestial Master. In addition, her power was almost the same as a Celestial Master. Everyone subconsciously thought that she was a Celestial Master.
The Saintess walked on air step by step. Her body emitted a jade light, like a beautiful statue of a goddess.
"And who are you?"
Devil's Heart's expression was a little numb. From the shock of seeing a Celestial Master for the first time to the third time, he was already a little numb and did not know what to say.
It wasn't just Devil's Heart. The entire Battle Spear City, the World of Darkness, and even the Cloud Mountain County City thousands of miles away were all looking at the female Sky Master in the sky with numb expressions. Their minds were blank.
Saintess Hanyu did not answer the Devil's Heart. What returned to the Devil's Heart was an ancient sword. The ancient sword was very ancient, and its aura was restrained. It seemed to be the most ordinary sword.
However, when the Saintess swung her sword, heaven and earth suddenly froze. All the laws of heaven and earth within a radius of ten thousand feet seemed to stop operating in an instant. A brilliant sword beam crossed time and space, slashing towards the Devil's Heart from an unknown dimension.
Devil's Heart's body stiffened. It was as if he had fallen into a swamp, making it difficult for him to move. The worldly laws in the void suddenly stopped, and he even found it difficult to mobilize the power of his Saint Path Laws.
Puchi!
The sword beam crossed time and space and slashed at the Devil's Heart's sacred body. The Devil's Heart only had time to move half of his body, but he was still unable to dodge the sword.
Sacred blood fell from the void to the ground. Devil's Heart's robe was torn apart, and a sword mark appeared on his sacred body, almost splitting him in two.
Fortunately, Devil's Heart's cultivation was deep, and his sacred body was strong. He used his body to block the sword.
"Sacred Sword!
Sacred Sword of Time! "
Devil's Heart looked at the Saintess as if he had seen a ghost. There was an indescribable shock and horror in his eyes.
Not only Devil's Heart.
All the saints, including the Tiger Ancestor, Gu Qingyan, the female Sky Master of Nine Heavens Pavilion … all looked at the Saintess.
To be more precise, it was the ancient sword in her hand.
That ancient sword was not only a true sacred weapon, but it was also the legendary Sacred Sword of Time.
Sacred Sword of Time!
Even sacred weapons had different grades, and the Sacred Sword of Time was undoubtedly the most terrifying type of sacred weapon.
A sacred sword that contained the law of time. When the sword was unleashed, heaven and earth would freeze, and time would stop. The sword qi crossed time and space, and it was impossible to dodge.
In the Southern Barbarian Continent, the Sacred Sword of Time and Sacred Sword of Space were only legends. There were records in the ancient records, but they had never appeared before.
The female Sky Master of Nine Heavens Pavilion looked at the Saintess with confusion. The Sacred Sword of Time was extremely rare even in the outer realm. Any one of them was peerless.
Logically speaking, saints were not qualified to obtain the Sacred Sword of Time, even if they were a Great Sage saint.
Moreover, this was the outer realm's standard.
In the Southern Barbarian Continent, there shouldn't be any Sacred Sword of Time.
What was most inconceivable to the female Sky Master was that she kept feeling that the mysterious female Sky Master of the Thousand Treasures Palace was somewhat familiar. It was as if she had seen her somewhere before, but when she thought about it carefully, she couldn't figure it out.
The Saintess stepped forward with her sword. She didn't say a word from beginning to end. She just brandished her sword again and slashed at the Devil's Heart.
The Devil's Heart was frightened by the Sacred Sword of Time and subconsciously retreated to dodge. However, the more he retreated, the more he couldn't dodge.
His body was hit again, and his saint blood dyed his clothes red.
If it wasn't for the fact that his saint body was strong and had strong self-healing abilities, the Devil's Heart would have been seriously injured by those two swords.
Even so, the Devil's Heart was terrified. He looked at the Saintess with eyes full of fear.
The Sacred Sword of Time was too strange and terrifying.
"Don't dodge. Fight it head-on. She is only a Sky Master, and you are a saint. Her power is ultimately inferior to yours. Even with the Sacred Sword of Time's amplification, her power won't be stronger than yours."
Saint Han Lin reminded with a solemn expression. In front of the Sacred Sword of Time, the more one dodged, the more impossible it was to dodge.
No matter how fast one was, could they be faster than time?
On the other hand, in a head-on confrontation, the Saintess of the Thousand Treasures Palace might not be able to do anything to the Devil's Heart. After all, the Devil's Heart was a true saint.
When the Devil's Heart heard this, he finally realized that he was too timid. He was too afraid of the Sacred Sword of Time, which gave the Saintess of the Thousand Treasures Palace an opportunity.
If she was a saint, he would definitely die with the Sacred Sword of Time.
However, she was only a Sky Master. What did he have to fear?
"The Thousand Treasures Palace does indeed have a big secret. However, no matter how big the secret is, it will eventually fall into my hands."
The Devil's Heart's eyes were full of passion. He was even more certain that the Thousand Treasures Palace had obtained the ancient saint's treasures. Moreover, not to mention the treasures, just the Sacred Sword of Time was the most supreme treasure on the continent.
Any saint was an ambitious and ruthless person with extraordinary willpower. They quickly adjusted their mentality and confronted the Saintess head-on.
As expected, although the Sacred Sword of Time was very strange, the Saintess of the Thousand Treasures Palace didn't have enough power. Although she had injured the Devil's Heart with her two swords, the Devil's Heart couldn't gain the upper hand when he became serious.
