At this time, the old man carried a giant treasure sword on his back, floating in the air as if he was a celestial being. He looked down on everything as if he disregarded everything in the world.
The Nine-sworded Ruler—this was a supreme powerhouse with a title.
His origin was mysterious. Even Luo Qi and Jin Cheng did not know where he came from.
If he did not say it, no one dared to ask.
The old man glanced at the 2 of them with his starry eyes, then he asked faintly, “Have you decided?”
Luo Qi stepped forward and answered respectfully, “Yes, Sir Nine-sworded Ruler, we’ve decided. As long as we can get out of here, we’ll follow you forever.”
“We’ve decided, sir,” Jin Hai also said respectfully.
The Nine-sworded Ruler smiled. He had expected this. He noted faintly, “If you join us, you won’t be able to retreat. If you dare to betray us…”
A murderous intent gushed out of the Nine-sworded Ruler’s body. The entire palace was filled with murderous intent. The weaker members of the 2 races found it difficult to breathe.
“We absolutely won’t dare to betray you!”
Luo Qi and Jin Cheng hurriedly said.
The terrifying pressure disappeared. In front of a conferred Ruler, they were no different from ants.
Even Luo Qi and Jin Cheng, who had reached the second step, felt the same. A conferred Ruler only needed one move to kill them.
The Nine-sworded Ruler withdrew his pressure and transmitted his voice to the minds of the 2 powerhouses, ‘You’re not loyal to me, but to the Heavenly Path Alliance. From now on, you’ll be members of the Heavenly Path Alliance.’
Heavenly Path Alliance!
These words were imprinted in the minds of Luo Qi and Jin Cheng. Among everyone present, only they had received the Nine-sworded Ruler’s voice transmission. The others were not qualified to know this.
Luo Qi glanced around and asked telepathically, ‘Sir Nine-sworded Ruler, why haven’t I heard of the Heavenly Path Alliance…”
Being an ancient strange beast, Luo Qi had lived for a very long time. He had existed before the Qiongqi Clan was sealed, but he had never heard of the Heavenly Path Alliance.
Jin Cheng also had a puzzled look in his eyes. His thoughts were the same as Luo Qi’s. Not only Luo Qi, but he had also not heard of it.
‘The Heavenly Path Alliance is a good place. It’s very formidable, and I’m one of them. It’s normal that you don’t know because it didn’t come from this world!’ The Nine-sworded Ruler said telepathically.
‘It didn’t come from this world!’
Luo Qi and Jin Cheng looked at each other, their eyes filled with horror. When they looked at the Nine-sworded Ruler, their eyes were filled with fear.
“Why? Do you regret it?” The Nine-sworded Ruler moved the corners of his mouth.
“We don’t dare, we don’t dare. We’re just a little surprised,” Luo Qi answered hurriedly.
The Nine-sworded Ruler nodded in satisfaction, then he said faintly, “You’re the first batch of subordinates of the Heavenly Path Alliance in the fifth world. After the alliance unifies this place, you’ll be the greatest contributors. Do your jobs well. Your clans’ statuses in the Great Wide World can even surpass that of the Shamans in ancient times from now on.”
Luo Qi and Jin Hai quickly thanked him. This was a huge promise. Now that their clans were trapped here, it was an extravagant hope for them to get out. The Nine-sworded Ruler’s promise to them was to let them stand at the peak of this Great Wide World.
After being excited for a while, Luo Qi gradually calmed down. He said in a deep voice, “Sir, the situation outside isn’t good. The people that you helped to send out last time lost contact with us.”
“Is that so?”
The Nine-sworded Ruler raised his eyebrows. “Their strengths are weak but as long as they don’t violate some forbidden places in the Great Wide World, they shouldn’t be wiped out.”
“Sir, we think so too, but they have indeed lost contact with us. Oh right, they once said that they wanted to destroy the inheritance of the Shamans. Do you think they could be…” Luo Qi’s eyes were filled with a dangerous light, and his eyes were filled with hatred.
Luo Yang was his most outstanding son, after all, and had broken through to become a Ruler in such a difficult place, hence he had originally planned to train him as his successor.
“The Shaman Tribe!”
After hearing the name, the Nine-sworded Ruler’s expression changed slightly, and he replied, “The Shaman Tribe has declined, but we can’t rule out the fact that they might still have some special methods. After all, they used to be the mightiest force in the Great Wide World. They might have some trump cards left for their younger generations.
“What do you want to do?” The Nine-sworded Ruler stared at Luo Qi.
Luo Qi said nervously, “Sir, I want to ask you to help us send out a few more people. I’ll ask them to be careful to investigate for you and also to see how my son and the others are doing.”
“Okay.” The Nine-sworded Ruler nodded without thinking, then he said, “The seal above has a great restriction on you, so I can only send out Rulers who have fathomed the laws at most, and not more than 3 of them. There can be more ordinary Rulers. You can start preparing now.”
“Yes, sir.”
Luo Qi and Jin Cheng answered respectfully.
The Nine-sworded Ruler moved aside, and Luo Qi and Jin Cheng also began to pick out the people who wanted to go out. They looked down and saw that there were roughly 100 powerhouses from the 2 clans in total.
They all looked expectant as each of them hoped to get out of this place. As long as they got out, they could leave this damn place and go to the Great Wide World, and they would never have to come back.
Luo Qi first glanced at the crowd, then he exchanged a look with Jin Cheng and said, “Each of our clan will send a Ruler who has comprehended the laws, then we’ll also send 2 ordinary Rulers each.”
“That’s very fair.” Jin Cheng nodded. Last time, his side had sent more people, so it was very rare for Luo Qi to be so fair this time.
Afterward, Luo Qi looked at the Qiongqi powerhouses below. His gaze stopped on a big man, and he said in a deep voice, “Luo Shan, this time, you’ll represent the Qiongqi clan. The remaining 2 people will be left for you to choose.”
“Thank You, Your Majesty!” Luo Shan said excitedly.
Under everyone’s envious gazes, Luo Shan walked out with a clang and knelt on the ground to express his gratitude.
Luo Qi’s expression was calm as he continued, “After you leave, you mustn’t be rash. Before you make any decision, you must return to the top and communicate with us before making a decision.”
“Yes, Your Majesty.”
Luo Shan bowed again.
“Go and pick the people you want to bring out.” Luo Qi waved his hand lightly.
On the other side, Jin Cheng had decided on the candidate. It was his younger brother, Jin Wu, who was also a Ruler who controlled the laws.
Soon, the 6 people were chosen.
Luo Qi and Jin Cheng led them and followed the Nine-sworded Ruler from the castle. In a remote place not far from the castle, the Nine-sworded Ruler looked at the sky. This place was where the seal was the weakest. The last time, those people had been sent out from this place.
“Thank you, sir.”
Luo Qi said respectfully.
The Nine-sworded Ruler nodded. He looked at the sky, and his eyes were filled with lights.
Following that, the giant sword on his back kept shaking, and it let out an ear-piercing sound. It flew out from behind Ruler and rushed into the sky.
The people around hurriedly scattered. This terrifying sword-light made them feel fear from the bottom of their hearts. Even Luo Qi and Jin Cheng took a few steps back.
Between the ground and the sky, a passage condensed by the power of laws appeared. The Nine-sworded Ruler shouted coldly, “Hurry up and go up.”
With the previous experience, the people of the 2 clans also knew what to do. After the Nine-sworded Ruler said this, the 6 people did not hesitate and flew up into the sky through the passage. They all knew that this passage would not last for long.
Above the Big Nine Heavens and Ten Earth Sacrificial Blood Formation, Du Xie, who was carefully inspecting the formation, suddenly felt his hair stand on end. A strong sense of danger appeared.
He lowered his head. Before he could understand what was happening, he heard Ou Yangming’s cry from afar.
“Get out of the way!”
Du Xie’s heart trembled. His body spun quickly, and he hurriedly dodged to the side. At this moment, a powerful sword-light suddenly shot out from the ground.
“What’s going on?”
Du Xie stabilized his body and looked in the direction of the sword-light. If he had left a little later, he might have been pierced through by the light. What on earth happened? What kind of existence was under the formation?
The clan master turned pale with fright. Ou Yangming flew over and stood side by side with him in the air.
“So powerful!”
Ou Yangming looked at the sword-light that flew up into the sky and sucked in a breath of cold air. Compared to the power of laws in the sword-light, his law of Yin and Yang was like child’s play.
The sword-light flashed and disappeared in the air.
At the place where the sword-light appeared, 6 unfamiliar figures appeared.
These powerhouses did not transform into human forms. They were all dressed in primitive clothes. Du Xie recognized them at a glance. These people were from the Golden Crows and Qiongqis.
He finally understood what he was confused about. The people who had appeared earlier had all come out in this way.
However, where did the sword-light come from?
Du Xie could not calm down until he figured out this question.
“We’re finally out!”
“What abundant spiritual Qi of Heaven and Earth!”
“So comfortable!”
There was excitement in their voices.
As soon as they came out, they felt the changes in the world. This was the most dangerous place in the heart of origins but as compared to where they lived, this place could be considered heaven.
“Who are they?”
Some people noticed Ou Yangming and Du Xie. The clan master’s shrunken body looked no different from an ordinary person’s. Those powerhouses only thought that they were humans, so they did not care.
Luo Shan took out a jade token and immediately sent a voice transmission to the people below, ‘We’ve already come up. No one was hurt. We met 2 humans outside, so we plan to kill them.’
The jade token could only send voice transmissions above the formation. It would lose its effect if it reached other places.
After saying that, Luo Shan put away the jade token and looked up at Ou Yangming and Du Xie.
To him and the other powerhouses, Ou Yangming and Du Xie were already dead. Only dead people could keep the secret forever after seeing them come out of the formation.
