Shua!
Wan Jie's hand was separated from his body, turning into fine pieces of flesh and blood, which fell on his face.
Blood spurted out from the wound and also landed on his body.
Wan Jie screamed and cursed.
His eyes were filled with fear and regret.
Yi Lingling seemed to be completely immersed in torturing Wan Jie.
At this moment, someone made a move.
A figure appeared out of nowhere and a golden rope flew toward Yi Lingling to bind her.
All sorts of formations and restrictions were also activated instantly.
It was the Heavenly Pavilion!
The mysterious pavilion master had actually personally made a move.
Moreover, his strength was beyond imagination, and everyone could tell that he had surpassed the emperor realm.
Furthermore, he was not alone, as a group of pavilion guardians attacked as well.
In order to obtain Yi Lingling's opportunity, the Heavenly Pavilion had expended quite a bit of resources.
From their perspective, no matter how strong Yi Lingling was, she was only an emperor realm cultivator.
Some of the experts looked at each other and were ready to make a move.
However, they all suppressed their impulses and waited for the best opportunity.
"I've been waiting for you!"
Yi Lingling's body exploded with a powerful aura as she unsheathed her sword.
Sword intent surged and materialized into tangible form.
The first swing of her sword cut the golden rope to pieces.
The second swing broke the formations and restrictions were also instantly broken.
The third swing was like a wave, sweeping in all directions, killing many of the pavilion guardians.
The pavilion master was a second-level supreme realm cultivator.
Even so, he still felt a strong sense of danger from Yi Lingling's attacks.
His expression changed drastically.
He realized that she was far stronger than he predicted.
Moreover, the sword was actually of a higher grade than the heaven glimpse board.
As soon as they started fighting, the pavilion master knew that the Heavenly Pavilion alone would not be able to handle her.
"Let's all attack together, the Heavenly Pavilion won't monopolize the opportunity!"
After the pavilion master spoke, the emperor realm experts who had been waiting joined the fray.
They could tell that the Heavenly Pavilion would not be able to handle Yi Lingling, and were thus presented with two choices.
They could either dispel the idea of snatching the opportunity, or join forces with the Heavenly Pavilion.
However, in this remote section, when one's cultivation reached the peak of the emperor realm, there would be no further progress.
Thus, the temptation of advancing further was far too great.
In an instant, a dozen emperor realm experts attacked.
They were all experts on the emperor ranking list.
At this moment, only the imperial family of the Great Victory empire did not get involved.
Yi Lingling was surrounded, and was also feeling pressured.
However, she did not use the Ethereal Divine Sword.
Boom!
The battle broke out, and in an instant, the Marquis of Swords' residence was razed to the ground.
Yi Lingling swung her sword, and one of the emperor realm experts fell to the ground, severely injured.
As she did so, she was almost hit by the pavilion master.
More and more emperor realm experts joined in the battle.
The scale of the battle grew larger and larger.
When Yi Lingling saw that more and more buildings in the Imperial City were being destroyed, she moved and broke out of the encirclement.
She made her way out of the Imperial City, and the pavilion master led the emperor realm experts in pursuit.
"Imperial family, are not going to make a move?"
The pavilion master's deep voice rang out.
The current king stood above the Imperial Palace and watched the battle without issuing a response.
Beside him was the Zhen King.
"Imperial Uncle, do you think the Heavenly Pavilion can win?"
"Since they failed to succeed in the beginning, they will fail in the end," Zhen King squinted his eyes and said.
The imperial family's emperor realm experts were tempted as well.
However, none of them dared to make a move rashly without the permission of the current king and Zhen King.
Outside the Imperial City, the battle was intense.
The imperial family brought their forces to the city wall to observe the battle. Their forces were waiting for orders.
Everyone knew that, today, the world was going to change.
Yi Lingling was fighting dozens of emperor realm experts alone, including the second-level supreme realm pavilion master.
One could imagine how great the pressure was.
There were a few times when she fell into dangerous situations, but she still did not use the Ethereal Divine Sword.
Instead, she forced herself to continuously use all sorts of techniques, crushing the emperor realm experts.
As the battle continued, the emperor realm experts were shocked to find how powerful Yi Lingling was.
In fact, many people were already regretting their participation. However, backing out now was not an option.
The pavilion master's face was extremely gloomy.
Yi Lingling's power was beyond his imagination.
Even though he knew that the imperial family of the Great Victory empire wanted to reap the benefits without doing anything, he could not afford to divert any of his attention or power to deal with them.
Boom!
As the battle continued, all of the emperor realm experts started to use their trump cards to pressure Yi Lingling.
Her sword intent surged out in waves, and her body was hidden within those waves. As the waves pulsated, they swept out toward the emperor realm experts, causing strong gusts of wind.
These gusts of wind were laced with sword intent.
The opportunity for a breakthrough had arrived.
Yi Lingling took out a spiritual herb and swallowed it.
Spiritual energy filled her body, and broke the barrier that had been holding her back.
The pavilion master was shocked. She had broken through to the supreme realm?
He was only able to break through because of the Heavenly Pavilion.
He had once left this place and made a breakthrough in the outside world!
However, Yi Lingling had a breakthrough here!
Now, the outcome of the battle was already decided.
The current king and the Zhen King tacitly left the city wall with their forces in tow.
Moments later, they reached the ancient pavilion, and barged in unceremoniously.
Shua!
Yi Lingling did not show mercy after breaking through, and made quick work of all of the emperor realm experts.
The pavilion master quickly fled to the Imperial City.
Yi Lingling held her sword in her hand and pursued him at a leisurely pace.
A battle had broken out in the ancient pavilion, infuriating the pavilion master.
The imperial family had indeed taken the opportunity to attack the Heavenly Pavilion.
A mirror-like jade tablet appeared in his hand. A ray of light shone brightly, and array formations and restrictions were suddenly activated inside the ancient pavilion.
After he did that, he rushed into the ancient pavilion.
Yi Lingling looked at the ancient pavilion, which was covered in formations and restrictions. Inside, she could hear the faint sounds of fighting.
She swung her sword!
Boom!
To her surprise, she was unable to break the formations.
Frowning, she took out a small hammer, and hurled it at the ancient pavilion.
Once the small hammer left her hand, it grew to the size of a small mountain, and started to crackle with lightning power.
When it hit the ancient pavilion, it shattered the formations and restrictions.
Putting away the hammer, she strolled inside.
In the ancient pavilion, there were a few corpses lying on the ground.
There were two severely injured people as well, and the pavilion master was busy operating a certain formation in the pavilion.
He turned around in shock.
How had she broken the formations so quickly?
Yi Lingling took one step forward at a time, her killing intent was palpable. She said coldly, "The Heavenly Pavilion ranking lists have caused countless disasters. After today, the Heavenly Pavilion will no longer exist!"
The pavilion master looked at Yi Lingling coldly and said, "Do you really think that this is the true Heavenly Pavilion? Do you think that this remote place is the actual world?"
"I'm just a pavilion master at the bottom rungs of the Heavenly Pavilion. You're seeking your own death by destroying this place's Heavenly Pavilion!"
Yi Lingling looked at him silently.
So what?
She already knew that this place was just a remote corner of the world.
Apparently, the Heavenly Pavilion here was only a small branch of the larger organization, which was out of her expectations.
Even so, she still wanted to destroy it. Thus, she swung her sword.
The pavilion master's expression changed drastically, and the jade tablet in his hand lit up as he tried to block this attack.
At the same time, a ray of light shot out of the jade tablet and entered Yi Lingling's body.
Yi Lingling was shocked. She was unable to avoid or resist the light.
Shua!
In the end, the jade tablet failed to block the attack, and the pavilion master was slain.
The jade tablet fell to the ground.
Yi Lingling waved her hand and the jade tablet appeared in her hand.
