"Good disciple, you have to remember.
Whether it's the Qingping Sword or the Four Fairy-Slaying Swords, they are my swords, not yours. You're just a pawn used by my two unscrupulous Senior Brothers! "
Guhan felt as if his head was being lifted by something. Then, Tongtian's old face appeared in front of him.
At that moment, Guhan finally saw his surroundings.
As far as the eye could see, there was lush greenery everywhere, and at the same time it was filled with fresh and fragrant air. In the distance, he could even see the faintly discernible silhouette of the largest city. With one glance, Gu Han could recognize that it was Yan Jing City.
"I'm back in the main world!"
At that moment, Guhan understood that he had been taken out of the alternate dimension and arrived in the main world. Moreover, he was not far from Yanjing City. It was only about 100 kilometers away from Yanjing City. Only at this distance could he see the city walls of Yanjing City so clearly.
At that moment, Guhan's head and body were actually floating in the air. Apart from Tongtian, Goddess Wudang and Lady Yunxiao were also behind him.
"Since these swords belong to Master, why don't you just kill me? Why did you wake me up?" Although Gu Han was in Tongtian's hands, he did not show the slightest hint of fear.
"You're very calm. This is very similar to me!" Tongtian could not help but praise Guhan when he saw how calm he was.
"It's nothing. If one day you're in my hands like today and can't fight back, you'll lose all your fear. At most, you'll just die." Guhan smiled. He indeed looked like a human who had completely let go of life and death.
"It's not that easy to die!"
Tongtian looked at Guhan meaningfully. "I have a thousand ways to make you feel like you're better off dead than alive."
"If I may be so bold, is there anything in this world that's more painful than splitting a consciousness fragment?" Guhan asked curiously.
"No." Sect Leader Tongtian was calm.
"Then, Master, please torture your disciple. Your disciple can endure anything. Master, please do it!" Gu Han smiled.
"Hahaha!
Your temper and mouth are like mine. It would be great if you were really my disciple! "
Tongtian laughed and threw Guhan's head away. Lady Yunxiao immediately flew up and held Guhan's head in her arms.
"Good disciple, I'm not like your Uncle-Master and Uncle-Master who like to talk.
You're not like the two scoundrels of the Western Sect who like to play tricks. Open your dimensional pocket and take out the four Immortal-slaying Swords inside. Then, I'll let you live and let you reunite with your body. Then, you can return to your Yan Jing City. In the future, you and I will fight again to decide the ownership of the world. What do you think? "Sect Leader Tongtian laughed out loud.
"Master, you really want the Four Fairy-Slaying Swords!"
Gu Han could not help but smile, "Disciple's Zhu Xian Four Swords are in that dimensional pocket. Master's power is unparalleled, and you are also the only saint in the world. You could have forcefully opened disciple's dimensional pocket, why would you let disciple live?"
"Humph, if I could open your dimensional pocket, you unfilial disciple would have been dead already. I definitely wouldn't spare your life. After all, you are the last Qi of this world, and this is the best opportunity to kill you. I really don't want to let go of this opportunity!" Sect Leader Tongtian said coldly.
"Hahaha, in your eyes, the Four Fairy-Slaying Swords are more important than the world?" Guhan asked.
"…" Tongtian did not answer. He just looked at Guhan quietly.
Gu Han's heart was clear, the reason why Tongtian Sect Leader kept him alive was because of the Four Immortal Execution Swords.
As soon as he found out that it was a trap, Guhan stuffed all the Four Fairy-Slaying Swords into the dimensional pocket and sealed them firmly. He even used consciousness fragments to block the entrance of the dimensional pocket. This made it impossible for Tongtian to break the dimensional pocket by force.
Unless Guhan agreed, it was impossible to open Guhan's dimensional pocket in any case. This was the only reason why Guhan survived. It seemed that Tongtian still had a deep hatred for the Four Fairy-Slaying Swords.
It was just that it was unknown whether Tongtian wanted to get the Four Fairy-Slaying Swords to take back what belonged to him or to take revenge.
After all, if it were not for the betrayal of the Four Fairy-Slaying Swords, it was very likely that Tongtian would have defeated his fellow disciples. Why did he have to endure endless torture in the Seamless Corridor?
"Master, if you want the Four Fairy-Slaying Swords, I can agree to your deal!" Guhan finally said after a long silence.
"Alright, I can swear to my true self that as long as you hand over the Four Immortal-Exterminating Swords to me, I will allow you and your body to fuse together. Furthermore, I will not appear to cause trouble for you for 30 years. Thirty years later, you and I will fight again and finally decide the fate of the world!"
Tongtian said lightly. These words sounded like empty words, but since Tongtian swore to his true self, it was enough to prove the authenticity of this oath.
"Haha, Master, in order to kill me, I'm afraid you've already used up what's left of your consciousness fragments. These 30 years are probably used by Master to recuperate. Even if you don't take this oath, these 30 years are also mine. Master, don't lie to me anymore!" Gu Han laughed and unceremoniously exposed the true situation of Sect Leader Tongtian.
"So what?"
Seeing that his purpose had been exposed by Guhan, Tongtian did not change his expression at all. He still said in a calm tone, "If you don't agree, you won't even have 30 years."
"Didn't I agree just now?"
Guhan smiled bitterly. "But you and I can change the conditions. Suddenly, I don't want the 30 years. I only want another condition!"
"What condition?" Tongtian asked with narrowed eyes.
"Master, you can take the Four Fairy-Slaying Swords, but I hope that you can leave the Qingping Sword for me!" Guhan finally said this condition.
"You want the Qingping Sword!"
A trace of killing intent flashed across Tongtian's eyes. "I understand. You want revenge, right? You want to avenge Qingping Sword for plotting against you yesterday!"
"Yes!"
Guhan stared blankly at Tongtian, not concealing the grief, anger, and killing intent in his heart. "Qingping is the first sword lady in my life, and she's also my favorite. I treat her like my own daughter and give her everything I can."
"But in the end, disciple did not change her at all. The moment she inserted herself into disciple's heart, disciple's heart was already dead. If disciple does not take revenge, then disciple will never be able to revive, and disciple will no longer have a need to live!" Gu Han said through gritted teeth.
"I see!
I can understand your feelings very well! "
Hearing Gu Han's words, Tongtian's eternally unchanging face suddenly revealed an expression of deep sympathy.
"Good disciple, I'm actually the same as you.
1,000 years ago, when I saw the Four Immortal-Slaying Swords, which I had painstakingly refined for tens of millions of years, insert them into my body, I felt the same as you now. Even though I had already severed the Three Separations, I still can't forget that bone-deep hatred! "
Tongtian said faintly, "So, after you got the Four Immortal-Slaying Swords back, you had to tear out all the souls of these four evil creatures and trap them in the Time Void that has no future. Only by making them suffer for endless years could you make up for the hatred in your heart."
Tongtian's words made Divine Mother Wudang and Mistress Cloudsky, who were behind Guhan, shiver. They had heard of the Time Void before. It was said that it was a place where time could not touch. Similar to the Seamless Corridor, it was a place where there was no concept of time, and a moment there was equal to eternity.
However, the difference between the Seamless Corridor and the Seamless Corridor was that the Seamless Corridor had an exit, but the Time Void had absolutely no exit. Even a Saint would not be able to escape after entering the Time Void … because it was the graveyard of the world, the place where countless worlds died and collapsed. Unless one could surpass all the worlds, it was impossible to leave the Time Void.
"That's great. Since Master can understand my pain, please give me the Qingpin Sword, and I will definitely return the Four Immortal-Slaying Swords to you!" Guhan said immediately.
"Disciple, if only one sword stays by your side when all your sword ladies betray you, and uses its own life to protect you, even if it becomes an ordinary sword in the end, will you let this sword leave your side and give it to your enemy?" Tongtian said lightly.
"I see. I understand now!" Guhan's face darkened, and he said emotionally, "Master, please do it!"
"You can raise other conditions, and I might be able to agree to it!" Tongtian tried to persuade Guhan when he saw the determination on his face.
"There's no point in saying more. I don't have any conditions other than the Qingpin Sword!" Guhan rejected him quite straightforwardly.
"Oh?
So even the city in front of you can't change your mind? "Tongtian pointed at Yanjing City in front of him and said.
"Haha, please forgive me for being blunt, but there are your grand-disciples in Yanjing City, as well as the successor of the Liunian Family and hundreds of thousands of sword-bearers. With your current strength, I'm afraid you can't touch Yanjing City at all!" Guhan said indifferently.
"Disciple, you're right. I can't touch this city now, and I don't want to touch this city either. However, if I don't move, the others won't. Coincidentally, they've already arrived!"
As soon as Tongtian's voice trailed off, countless clouds pressed down from the distant sky, covering the entire sky like giant prehistoric beasts.
This was only the strange phenomenon in the sky. In the distant west, countless Magical Beasts Army were rushing over in a frenzy. In the east, all kinds of humans and demons were also coming over by treading on the sea. Finally, countless Dimensional Doors opened, and many human Heroic Spirits broke through the void and floated quietly in the sky of Yanjing City.
The Heavenly Court, the Western Magical Beasts, the Fusang Divine Branch, and finally the Heroic Spirit Palace.
These four largest Yuan Kou factions had come out in full force, and more than 90% of their forces were gathered near Yanjing City. They planned to completely destroy the remaining human forces in one fell swoop.
Just by looking at the strength of the parties involved in the battle, this was already the most powerful battle in the past 1,000 years, with the greatest number of enemies.
The humans were also facing the most dangerous moment in the past 1,000 years … The degree of danger was even greater than that of the 12th Zu Wu. If the humans could win this battle, they would be able to wipe out all the Yuan Kou factions in one fell swoop, and the rule of the world would completely return to the hands of the humans.
However, if the humans were defeated, there would probably no longer be a human race in this world.
