Chapter 3704: Immortal Sword Juechen

Ye Bufan had exhausted his Immortal Essence earlier, so he hadn't sealed the opponent's Cultivation, but he didn't expect Duanmu Yun Chong to be so insane.

The self-detonation of an Immortal King Peak was incredibly powerful. Feeling the immense danger, he didn't dare to think further. With a thought, he hid inside the Dragon King Palace.

Sitting safely on Dragon King Island, he still felt a lingering fear.

Duanmu Yun Chong was truly a ruthless character. Knowing he couldn't escape safely, he immediately chose to self-detonate.

It was a good thing his Mental Energy was still intact, otherwise, he would have been utterly annihilated this time.

He wondered how Ye Erlang was doing. Fortunately, when he left, he had given him an order: escape as far as possible.

After two breaths, estimating that the situation outside should have stabilized, he left the Dragon King Palace again.

Returning to the previous location, although the self-detonation had ended, the stirred-up dust had not completely dispersed, and the surroundings were still shrouded in a misty haze.

And right where Duanmu Yun Chong had been, there was a giant crater a thousand feet in diameter, seemingly bottomless.

The self-detonation of an Immortal King Peak was truly terrifying.

Ye Bufan didn't care about anything else and quickly swept his Divine Sense out to search for Ye Erlang.

In a crater several hundred feet away, he found Ye Erlang's corpse. Although he had escaped so far, the explosion's power was too great, still tearing him into pieces.

Seeing this scene, he actually breathed a sigh of relief. As long as he wasn't at the very center of the explosion, as long as he wasn't completely reduced to nothingness.

With Ye Erlang's Immortal body and his current Cultivation of the Spotless Heavenly Book, he believed he would recover very quickly.

With a thought, he collected Ye Erlang's scattered remains into the Dragon King Palace, letting him recover slowly on his own.

After all this was done, the burden on his mind was completely lifted, and he surveyed his surroundings again.

Duanmu Yun Chong was already out of the question; his Primordial Spirit had completely turned to nothingness after self-detonating, leaving not even a speck of flesh.

This made him secretly sigh in regret.

The power of the Heaven-Slaying Arrow earlier was too strong, directly exploding that white-haired Immortal Lord, an effect similar to self-detonation, leaving not even a trace, let alone a Primordial Spirit.

The current Duanmu Yun Chong was the same; not only did he fail to extract much useful information, but even his Primordial Spirit was wasted.

Fortunately, he had reacted quickly earlier, allowing Ye Erlang to retrieve the Sun-Extinguishing Bow and Heaven-Slaying Arrow while also snatching his Storage Ring. Otherwise, not even a single hair would have been left after that explosion.

Stepping back to the edge of the giant crater, he took out the Sun-Extinguishing Bow and Heaven-Slaying Arrow, checking them to find them completely intact.

Then he took out the Storage Ring and swept his Divine Sense through it, but he was somewhat disappointed.

There were many miscellaneous items inside, but not many true treasures.

However, thinking about it, it was normal. Although Duanmu Yun Chong was an Immortal King, his family fortune had been almost depleted by him during this period.

Little Dot, hidden in the Cultivation World, became his beast pet, and Bao Kongchan, whom he had raised for a thousand years, had her Lifespan taken by him.

Even the Sun-Extinguishing Bow and Heaven-Slaying Arrow became his; it was unlikely for him to produce any more decent treasures.

Although there were no more significant gains, a major hidden danger had finally been removed, making him feel as if a great mountain had been lifted from his heart.

Otherwise, with that old fellow by his side, he would always have to guard against schemes, and the pressure would be too immense.

Although the trouble here was resolved, he thought of the Liuguang Sword Sect again.

According to what Duanmu Yun Chong said, the Four Directions Sword Sect had already headed to the Lower Heaven Region, and he had to rush back immediately, otherwise, Situ Dianmo and the others would probably be unable to cope.

And just then, a dozen figures swiftly approached from a distance, it was Luo Bingyan and others who had rushed over after hearing the news.

Ye Bufan was not present, and Duanmu Yun Chong's self-detonation had caused such a huge commotion, so everyone rushed over to check the situation.

Seeing him safe and sound, these people all showed expressions of relief.

"It's alright, I've completely resolved the trouble. All of you return to Lingyun Sword Sect, and don't go out recently unless necessary.

I have an urgent matter and need to return to the Lower Heaven Region. I will come back as soon as possible."

Ye Bufan had recovered some of his Cultivation. After making arrangements, he was about to leave but was pulled back by Luo Bingyan.

"I want to go back with you too. After all, I am a Disciple of the Liuguang Sword Sect, and I should at least go back and say goodbye."

"Alright then."

Ye Bufan did not refuse. The two of them stepped onto the Nine Heavens together, transforming into a streak of flowing light and flying towards the direction of the teleportation array.

In the Lower Heaven Region, in front of the Liuguang Sword Sect's Sect gate, five figures swiftly approached from a distance.

Leading them was a thin old man, not tall, with ordinary features, but his entire Aura was extremely sharp, like a drawn sword.

Jian Juechen, a strong Immortal Lord Rank expert of the Four Directions Sword Sect.

After receiving the message from Duanmu Yun Chong, Sword Ling Xiao, the Sect Leader of the Four Directions Sword Sect, was extremely enraged.

If the four Sword Emissaries sent by the Sect had died at the hands of the Blood Asura Clan, that would have been one thing, but if they were killed by a young brat from the Liuguang Sword Sect, that was absolutely intolerable.

This concerned not only the lives and deaths of four Core Disciples but also the reputation of the entire Four Directions Sword Sect.

So, he dispatched Jian Juechen, an Immortal Lord Early Stage expert, along with four Immortal King Peak Rank Disciples, to the Lower Heaven Region to investigate the matter thoroughly.

If it was truly Ye Bufan's doing, he was to be immediately brought back to the Middle Heaven Region for judgment.

Upon arriving in the Lower Heaven Region, Jian Juechen frowned. With his current strength, the Rank here was clearly too low.

"The Sect Master's intention this time is very clear: to capture that Ye boy back for judgment, to avoid harming the innocent as much as possible, and not to make too much of a fuss."

Although Sword Ling Xiao sent people to the Lower Heaven Region, he did not do so with great fanfare.

The Middle Heaven Region also had its own principles, which was that normally, various Schools were not allowed to privately go to the Lower Heaven Region, nor were they allowed to casually attack the Sects here.

Although no one dared to stand up and criticize the Four Directions Sword Sect given its status, it was ultimately not a very glorious matter, so it was better to keep a low profile.

Jian Juechen continued, "The spatial interface here is too fragile. I won't make a move later. You four will act and bring that boy back."

He was an Immortal Lord in strength, although only in the Early Stage, but it already exceeded the scope of what the Lower Heaven Region should have. It was better not to act if possible.

"Junior Martial Uncle, rest assured, a small School in the Lower Heaven Region doesn't require your esteemed presence at all. We can easily resolve it."

The speaker was Yan Wuqing, one of the four Disciples. This fellow, like Feng Wuji and the others before him, always maintained a condescending attitude, not putting the Immortals of the Lower Heaven Region in his eyes at all.

Another Disciple, Du Wuju, said arrogantly, "Junior Martial Uncle, I think you're overthinking it.

As long as we stand in front of the Liuguang Sword Sect's gate, they'll do whatever we tell them to do.

If we tell them to kneel, they won't dare to stand. If we tell them to hand over the person, how could they dare to hesitate for a moment? Do we even need to make a move?"

Jian Juechen waved his hand, "It's still better to be careful. Don't forget that Feng Wuji and the other four died here."

Yan Wuqing said, "Didn't the person who sent the message say that Ye Bufan was despicable and shameless, taking advantage of our Senior Brother and the others being severely injured by the Blood Asura Clan to launch a sneak attack?

If it were a head-on confrontation, how could a low-Rank Immortal from the Lower Heaven Region possibly be their opponent?"

The others said nothing but nodded in agreement, their eyes filled with disdain.
