Chapter 1192: Compared to My Junior Brother, You're Far Inferior
"Indeed, without Daoist Fellow Xia today, we definitely couldn't have entered the Xuantian Sect."
After confirming Xia Liu's identity, Wang Liang's respect for Xia Liu reached unprecedented heights.
At the first meeting, he doubted this young man who was mythologized by Liu Hong.
Now he had to concede, although Xia Liu is young, his capabilities are something even he had to look up to.
At least the Xuantian Great Formation, no one in the world has been able to break it.
But Xia Liu did.
When breaking the formation, the aura he exhibited was no more than the eleventh level of Qi Cultivation.
If an eleventh level Qi Cultivator can break the formation, cultivators above the eleventh level might as well have lived those years in vain.
"Daoist Fellow Qingjue, that day if not for the Myriad Ghosts Devouring Spirit Array, with your skills, even Ye Tiande and Ghost Su combined wouldn't have been your match."
Liu Hong sincerely admired Sage Qingjue.
From the time Ye Tiande escaped, to when he arrived at the scene, not even one incense's time had passed.
Yet Ye Tiande had already lost an arm, and his entire cultivation was sealed.
These facts were enough to prove Sage Qingjue's immeasurable strength.
"Hehe, what is my little capability compared to my junior brother's, it's far inferior."
Sage Qingjue smiled bitterly.
In the King's Canyon, even after I expended all my cultivation to perform the Prajna Palm, I couldn't shake Xia Liu.
If Xia Liu's cultivation was restored to the fifteenth level of Qi Cultivation, no cultivator below the Foundation Establishment Stage would be his match.
"Senior Brother Qingjue is joking; there are many areas where I need to learn from you."
"Humility is good, very good."
Sage Qingjue nodded.
That Xia Liu could speak so was truly commendable.
Wang Liang almost wet himself; he no longer dared harbor any doubts.
Even Sage Qingjue acknowledged Xia Liu as superior in strength.
That must be true!
Thinking about this, Wang Liang felt very fortunate.
Fortunate he hadn't offended Xia Liu further before.
Otherwise, given the current situation, he wouldn't have been able to handle the outcome.
Thus, the ultimate loss would definitely be his own.
"Junior Brother Xia, my task here is done. I need to truly return to Shu Mountain next."
Sage Qingjue grabbed the unconscious Ye Tiande and intended to leave.
"Safe journeys, Senior Brother Qingjue. I'll visit Shu Mountain when I have some free time."
"Ha! That's the spirit!"
Sage Qingjue nodded with a smile, then drew his Spirit Sword.
Watching Sage Qingjue departing on his sword, Liu Hong reminded him, "Daoist Fellow Qingjue, you have the Cold Bone Fan in that hand..."
"You can handle the Cold Bone Fan yourselves."
Sage Qingjue's voice echoed through the canyon.
Leaving Xia Liu and the others with a bitter smile.
The Cold Bone Fan is a Supreme Grade Spiritual Artifact, after all.
Sage Qingjue didn't even spare it a glance, which speaks volumes of his detachment!
"Elder Liu, we should not talk about anything else. Ye Tiande was defeated by Sage Qingjue, so his possessions rightfully belong to him. Now that Sage Qingjue has left, his belongings should naturally go to his junior brother."
"Sect Master Wang is quite right; the Cold Bone Fan was earned by Daoist Fellow Qingjue, and since he didn't take it, it should naturally be given to Daoist Fellow Xia."
Liu Hong praised Wang Liang, acknowledging that after learning Xia Liu's identity, this fellow knew how to behave.
"Actually, I have no particular interest in this Cold Bone Fan..."
"Daoist Fellow Xia, if you don't take it, it will put Elder Liu and me in a very difficult position. It wouldn't be proper to just abandon a spiritual artifact in the wilderness."
Wang Liang's last words already proved his resolve.
It also warned Liu Hong that if Xia Liu didn't take it, then no one else would be allowed to claim the spiritual artifact.
On the surface, of course, it seems this way, but secretly, things could be different.
However, the clandestine aspect hasn't arisen yet, and if Xia Liu doesn't accept it, the ensuing events would be unpredictable.
"In that case, I humbly accept."
Xia Liu smiled bitterly and nodded.
As if accepting the Cold Bone Fan was somewhat of a grievance.
Seeing Xia Liu's expression, Liu Hong and Wang Liang felt a pang in their hearts.
But there was no other way; people must act this way to gain more freedom.
Xia Liu's future is boundless, and if necessary, sacrificing anything besides life would be permissible.
Watching Xia Liu use his storage container to collect the Cold Bone Fan, Wang Liang couldn't help but feel astounded.
That Xia Liu can possess such profound cultivation at such a young age is already terrifying.
Plus, there are the three unrestrained Origins and a storage container.
And who knows how many more hidden cards he holds.
After collecting the Cold Bone Fan, Xia Liu flicked his finger, igniting Karmic Fire to incinerate the severed limb left on the ground.
"Alright, let's head back to check on the Xuantian Sect."
"Alright!"
Then, the three of them flew on their swords back to the Xuantian Sect.
The vast and magnificent Xuantian Dynasty City.
At this moment, the city no longer glows with its past glory.
A chill pervaded the entire domain.
Ye Tiande's downfall signaled the loss of another sect from the Five Great Immortal Sects.
The Ghost Gate in the Western Mountains also vanished, leaving only three Immortal Sects in this realm.
The Immeasurable Sect, the Qingyun Sect, and the Liu Family of the East Sea.
In the central square of Xuantian Dynasty City.
The gigantic Spirit Column towered, as if connected with the heavens.
The column was covered in cracks, seeming as though it could collapse at any moment.
This Spirit Column was intertwined with the Xuantian Great Array, and with the Xuantian Formation broken, the Spirit Column wouldn't last much longer either.
Under the Spirit Column, more than two hundred Xuantian Sect disciples were neatly lined up.
They had no capacity to resist Liu Junxin's group.
The core disciples from the power rankings had already fled before the formation was broken.
The remaining disciples had cultivation levels ranging from the highest being Qi level seven, to the lowest at Qi level one.
Some weaker individuals could not withstand the oppressive atmosphere, their faces twisted, with bloodshot eyes.
Especially some female disciples.
They had never witnessed such a scene.
Now that the sect was breached, the Sect Master fled, and numerous idolized senior brothers escaped.
All they could do was shed tears and cry.
"Daoist Fellow Xia, Elder Liu, Sect Master Wang, all the remaining people from the Xuantian Sect are here."
Liu Junxin signaled to the returning Xia Liu and his companions, then asked, "What about Ye Tiande?"
"Ye Tiande was defeated by Sage Qingjue from Shu Mountain, and his cultivation was sealed. Currently, Sage Qingjue is taking him back to Shu Mountain. As for what happens next, it is unknown."
Wang Liang not only informed Liu Junxin.
He also casually conveyed this news to the Xuantian Sect members.
Let them know that the Sect Master of the Xuantian Sect was finished.
And not to harbor any more hopes for the future.
"The Sect Master has had his cultivation sealed!"
"The Sect Master is finished!"
"The Sect Master is done for!"
Upon hearing this news, many Xuantian Sect disciples present broke down emotionally.
The Sect Master was their only hope, and now that his cultivation was sealed, and taken back to Shu Mountain, he might even die in the future.
This time, the Xuantian Sect is truly doomed!
"Everyone quiet down!"
Liu Junxin shouted sternly.
"Elder Junxin, they are all innocent disciples. I believe most disciples of the Xuantian Sect do not share the evil inclinations of Ye Tiande."
"Daoist Fellow Xia is right; Ye Tiande's arrogance is nothing new.
And looking around, the haughty disciples of the Xuantian Sect, along with several elders, are not present at the scene, clearly having fled early."
