Right now, the Six Paths Veritable Lord was in a sorry state. Long Zhanguo had severely injured his internal organs, and Gu Hai’s saber strike nearly cut off his right arm. However, his body remained intact.

Even though Gu Hai knocked back the Six Paths Veritable Lord with the Ninth Cycle, he did not hold an absolute advantage. Furthermore, he had sustained great damage himself from the Ninth Cycle. With Gu Hai’s current physical body, he could not endure it many more times.

Even though it was dangerous, Gu Hai had no choice but to attack again.

“Stop wasting time! Attack and restrain the Six Paths Veritable Lord. Give Gu Hai an opportunity to attack!” Sect Master Supreme Ascendant shouted.

Boom!

Sect Master Supreme Ascendant and the Myriad Age Daoist Sect’s Heavenly Access used their enchanted treasures. The Severed Sect’s Heavenly Access’s Four Immortal Executioner Swords had shattered, but his body was fine. He used his hand as a sword, attacking to restrain the Six Paths Veritable Lord.

“Ninth Cycle!”

Gu Hai glared as he swung his saber again.

Crack! Crack! Crack! A ripping pain came from his back, causing Gu Hai to grit his teeth in an even more ferocious expression.

“Holy sword!” The Six Paths Veritable Lord glared as he swung his sword.

At the same time, he used his injured right hand to throw a palm strike at the Supreme Ascendant and the two Heavenly Accesses.

It was the same move as before. The Ninth Cycle rushed forward with unstoppable momentum, displaying a powerful might that could destroy a galaxy. Even the holy sword could not block it.

Boom!

The palm strike knocked the three back. However, the Ninth Cycle chopped off one of the Six Paths Veritable Lord’s arms this time.

Boom!

The Six Paths Veritable Lord showed a horrified expression as his right arm flew off.

Gu Hai’s hands trembled. He had sustained a massive backlash from executing the Ninth Cycle.

“The Six Paths Veritable Lord has lost his right arm! Hurry! Don’t stop!” the Supreme Ascendant roared.

Naturally, Gu Hai would not let this opportunity slide. He pressed the offense.

“Deity King Body, I’ll have to borrow from you again!” the Six Paths Veritable Lord snarled ferociously.

Buzz! The Six Paths Veritable Lord’s pupils suddenly shrank. His left eye gave off a white light, and his right eye gave off a black light. The Eyes of Life and Death had reappeared.

Despite having only one arm, he had a cold light in his eyes as he looked at Gu Hai.

The Six Paths Veritable Lord ignored the three’s interference. Instead, he swung the holy sword at Gu Hai.

A sense of great threat filled Gu Hai.

“Oh no!” Gu Hai’s expression changed.

He would be executing the Ninth Cycle for the third time. However, he understood that the most horrifying threat had appeared. The Eyes of Life and Death could see the weaknesses and openings. This sword strike was aimed at his vulnerable spot.

Gu Hai did not hesitate. He used his deity king to control his Eyes of Life and Death to see. The deity king’s eyes gave off black and white lights within his dantian.

Everything became black and white lines to Gu Hai’s deity king. The trajectory of the Six Paths Veritable Lord’s holy sword headed for a black line on his body. If the attack landed, he would immediately crumble like Long Zhanguo.

“Hah! No!” Gu Hai roared ferociously.

When executing the Ninth Cycle this time, he was not attacking the Six Paths Veritable Lord. Instead, he was defending the black line on his body.

“Huh?” The Six Paths Veritable Lord’s expression changed.

Gu Hai held his Life Executioner Saber horizontally in front of the black line.

Boom!

The sword and the saber clashed for the third time. Space trembled and exploded as before.

However, Gu Hai managed to cover his critical weakness despite the grave danger. He knocked the holy sword back but did not cause any damage to the Six Paths Veritable Lord this time.

Gu Hai felt anxious. He could execute the Ninth Cycle only two more times. No, perhaps executing it once more would immobilize him. However, the Six Paths Veritable Lord’s holy sword was still around.

As Gu Hai blocked the Six Paths Veritable Lord, the Myriad Age Daoist Sect’s Heavenly Access found an opportunity on the other side. He used his Immortal Executioner Sword to stab the Six Paths Veritable Lord’s back with overwhelming power.

Boom!

The sword pierced the Six Paths Veritable Lord’s body, gaining an unprecedented advantage in the battle.

After blocking the Ninth Cycle with his holy sword, the Six Paths Veritable Lord roared lividly. He twisted his body, the Immortal Executioner Sword tearing a larger wound on his body. However, he did not care; he wanted to kill the Myriad Age Daoist Sect’s Heavenly Access.

“You rat! Die!” The Six Paths Veritable Lord ferociously swung his sword at the Myriad Age Daoist Sect’s Heavenly Access.

“Be careful!” Gu Hai’s expression changed as he executed the Ninth Cycle again.

The distant Supreme Ascendant’s expression also changed as he threw a palm strike.

However, the Six Paths Veritable Lord did not care. He wanted to kill the Myriad Age Daoist Sect’s Heavenly Access. With the Eyes of Life and Death opened, he could see the critical weakness of the Myriad Age Daoist Sect’s Heavenly Access as he swung his sword.

“Immortal Executioner Sword Ritual Array!” the Myriad Age Daoist Sect’s Heavenly Access called out.

Boom!

The Immortal Executioner Sword Ritual Array could not even last a strike against the holy sword. It immediately exploded, and the Immortal Executioner Sword clashed with the holy sword.

Boom!

The Immortal Executioner Sword instantly exploded. The holy sword was like a death curse as it appeared before the Myriad Age Daoist Sect’s Heavenly Access. Before this sword strike, he despaired.

The Ninth Cycle could not make it in time to save him. Sect Master Supreme Ascendant could not save him in time, either. It looked like the Myriad Age Daoist Sect’s Heavenly Access would die.

At this moment, a black figure shielded the Myriad Age Daoist Sect’s Heavenly Access.

“My body as a sword, living as long as the world!”

The black figure roared and turned into a towering sword. This sword swung at the holy sword. The black figure was none other than the Severed Sect’s Heavenly Access.

To think that the Severed Sect’s Heavenly Access shielded the Myriad Age Daoist Sect’s Heavenly Access just as the Myriad Age Daoist Sect’s Heavenly Access was about to die.

“Die together!” the Six Paths Veritable Lord roared.

The Severed Sect’s Heavenly Access turned himself into a sword that was not much weaker than the Immortal Executioner Sword. It flared with dazzling black light as it blocked the holy sword.

Boom!

Blocked?

The black sword the Severed Sect’s Heavenly Access transformed into had blocked the holy sword. However, many cracks appeared all over the black sword.

“Sect Master Heavenly Access!” The distant Gu Hai’s expression changed.

The Ninth Cycle already reached the Six Paths Veritable Lord.

“Hahahahaha! Indeed, the sword Dao is boundless. Six Paths Veritable Lord, I did not lose to you! Hah!” the Severed Sect’s Heavenly Access roared ferociously.

Boom!

The Severed Sect’s Heavenly Access’s body could not endure the holy sword’s power. It exploded and turned into countless needle-like sword qi that stabbed into the Six Paths Veritable Lord’s injured body.

Boom!

The Six Paths Veritable Lord howled in pain. The sword qi that the Severed Sect’s Heavenly Access formed using his life blinded the Six Paths Veritable Lord’s left eye.

At the same time, Gu Hai’s Ninth Cycle struck him square on.

Boom!

The powerful attack blew up the Six Paths Veritable Lord’s left arm and a portion of his body. When the Supreme Ascendant’s palm strike arrived, it pierced through his back.

Boom!

The Six Paths Veritable Lord flew to the side. The holy sword tumbled away and suddenly disappeared. Clearly, the metal deity body had reclaimed it. His left eye was blinded, but the white light from the right eye vanished. The Eyes of Life and Death had returned as well.

Despite having both arms destroyed, a hole in his chest, getting pierced by a sword, and a portion of his body and half a leg torn off, the Six Paths Veritable Lord still did not die, albeit reduced to an incredibly sorry state.

“Hah! Hahahahahaha!” The Six Paths Veritable Lord let out a maniacal roar.

Gu Hai bled all over his body.

On the other side, the Severed Sect’s Heavenly Access completely shattered. He had fallen after his suicidal attack.

The Myriad Age Daoist Sect’s Heavenly Access gazed at the shattered core incredulously. There was a clump of blue light, which seemed to be the Severed Sect’s Heavenly Access’s lingering soul.

“Why? Why did you save me?” the Myriad Age Daoist Sect’s Heavenly Access yelled, finding this incredible.

Even though his first senior brother had told him to work with the Severed Sect’s Heavenly Access, he had never thought of saving the Severed Sect’s Heavenly Access, as there could only be one Heavenly Access in this world.

“Hah! You owe me one! Hahaha!” the lingering soul guffawed.

The lingering soul waved.

Whoosh!

Countless fragments rushed over from the surroundings. These were the fragments of the Four Immortal Executioner Swords that the holy sword shattered earlier.

“Although my Four Immortal Executioner Swords have shattered, you can merge them into your Seven Immortal Executioner Swords. You had better know what is good for you!” The Severed Sect’s Heavenly Access flung his sleeve.

Boom!

The Four Immortal Executioner Swords seemed to melt and fuse with the Myriad Age Daoist Sect’s Heavenly Access’s Seven Immortal Executioner Swords.

“Owe you one? This sect master hates owing others the most. Since I owe you, how do I repay you? You are already dead. Even your three spiritual souls and seven physical souls shattered. Only this lingering soul remains. How do I repay you?” the Myriad Age Daoist Sect’s Heavenly Access said in anger and anxiety.

“If you can’t repay me, then repay Gu Hai,” the lingering soul sighed.

Buzz!

The lingering soul moved over to Gu Hai.

Although Gu Hai was covered in blood, he looked at this clump of a lingering soul in shock. No, it should be a wisp of a soul fragment. It was just a sword conception that preserved the Severed Sect’s Heavenly Access’s final consciousness.

“Sect Master Heavenly Access, it is all my fault. Had I not summoned you, you would not have…,” Gu Hai said bitterly.

“Imperial Emperor Gu, there’s no need to apologize to me. I live for the sword and die for the sword. This is my fate. I am grateful that you showed me a stronger sword Dao. My swords are Executioner, Killer, Trapper, and Ender. Your sabers are also Executioner, Killer, Trapper, and Ender. I left a ritual array diagram in your Borderless Heavenly Capital’s Three Pure Ones Hall. I hope it will be useful to you,” the lingering soul said bitterly.

Now, Gu Hai could only bring out some Mending Heavenly Energy for the lingering soul. However, even that was useless. The lingering soul slowly started scattering. He felt very anxious. “The eighteenth layer of hell can mend spiritual souls. Why are you not mending? Could it be that the people whom Six Paths Veritable Lord kills cannot be revived?”

“Unfortunately, I have not comprehended the strongest sword Dao. Unfortunately…unfortunately, my three spiritual souls and seven physical souls shattered. If only I had more opportunities. If I could be reborn, I would cultivate a powerful sword Dao, the strongest sword Dao that would not lose to anyone.” The lingering soul slowly scattered with an obsession.

As it faded, it continuously obsessed. “The strongest sword Dao in the world!”

While obsessing over the sword Dao, the lingering soul gradually turned into an azure sword lotus. This azure sword lotus seemed to contain an unyielding and unreconciled sword conception. Then, the azure sword lotus slowly vanished.

There was no longer a trace of the Severed Sect’s Heavenly Access in this world.

Far away, the Myriad Age Daoist Sect’s Heavenly Access showed an extremely unsightly expression.

“Hah!”

The Myriad Age Daoist Sect’s Heavenly Access swung the Seven Immortal Executioner Swords at the severely injured Six Paths Veritable Lord. Sect Master Supreme Ascendant also charged at the Six Paths Veritable Lord, wanting to annihilate the Six Paths Veritable Lord.

As Gu Hai looked at where the azure sword lotus had vanished, he could only sigh. However, he suddenly felt startled the next moment.

“Something’s not right! Sect Master Heavenly Access was not completely destroyed?” Gu Hai’s expression changed.

Gu Hai had seen that azure sword lotus before. There was an identical azure sword lotus on Sha’s forehead.

Sha? He was a powerful sword cultivator, nicknamed the Azure Lotus Young Master, under the Myriad Age Daoist Sect’s Heavenly Access line of inheritance. He had interacted with Gu Hai many times. Previously, he managed to learn four different sword conceptions from Dongfang Bubai, Zhang Sanfeng, Dugu Qiubai, and Ximen Chuixue after seeing them just once.

That azure sword lotus is the Supreme Pure One’s will?

“He lives up to being Sect Master Heavenly Access. He can even give up his three spiritual souls and seven physical souls to seek the sword Dao?” Gu Hai showed a grave look.

Gu Hai had noticed that the Severed Sect’s Heavenly Access had behaved strangely ever since realizing the problem lay with himself. It turned out that he had been planning to recultivate since then.

The world lost a Severed Sect’s Heavenly Access but gained a Sha? No wonder Sha obsessed over the sword Dao.
