# Chapter 1524: Skyless Sword Emperor Strikes

"This person is younger than us, but as a Low-rank Emperor, he is more formidable than us!" Six Desires Martial Emperor looked at the retreating figure of Zhou Tianxiao and spoke indifferently.

"There is no point in comparison. We have only been in this Small World, unable to find cultivation techniques and battle arts that suit us perfectly. We have simply relied on our own groping exploration, or attacked with basic Law power. It is only natural that our skills are inferior." Yu Emperor was calm and took it lightly.

"En, once we go out, we old fellows should also properly explore the world!" Great Ape Emperor hoisted his black staff onto his shoulder, a hint of profound demonic light flickering in his bell-like giant pupils.

As for Lin Feng, he remained equally calm. Zhou Tianxiao tried to suppress him with the might of a Martial Emperor, hoping to shake his martial dao heart and avenge Zhou Tianruo. How naive. He had cultivated step by step to this point, each step arduous, and he would continue walking his martial dao path with unwavering determination, advancing step by step. How could he be shaken by Zhou Tianxiao's strength and a few words? However, Zhou Tianxiao was indeed a formidable figure. If the Great Ape Emperor and the others were to fight him one-on-one, none of them would likely be able to defeat him.

His calm eyes gazed into the distance, as if trying to pierce through space to see the terrifying battlefield.

In that space, after the great battle, the surrounding area had become devoid of people. Even those who wished to watch were hiding in the void, peeking from who knows how far away. The aftershocks of the battle were too terrifying. Even a residual attack from the Envoy's Lightning Punishment power could easily strike dead a powerful Sovereign Lord. The endless Lightning Punishment that bared its sharp fangs between heaven and earth had already swept dozens of miles of land into ruins.

The Watcher Father struggled to fight against the Envoy. The attacks of Lightning Punishment power were too strong. Even as a Mid-rank Emperor, he still had to fight with extreme caution.

At this moment, the Envoy slowly stepped forward, step by step. Lightning Punishment cleared the way, turning the area ahead into a world of lightning. The Envoy's mouth was cold, his words icy: "In this world, I control the Lightning Punishment. To fight me is to fight heaven!"

As the Envoy spoke, lightning light appeared in his pupils. The Watcher Father's eyes pierced through his bamboo hat to look at those pupils, but he felt his heart tremble and go numb. The Lightning Punishment power seemed to pass through his eyes, penetrate into his body, and rush into his heart. The lightning light on the Envoy's body grew stronger and stronger.

The area ahead of the Envoy, as he strolled through the void, seemed to transform into a sea of Lightning Punishment, filled with endless lightning. His steps seemed to tread on the waves of Lightning Punishment, and this entire world seemed to become a world of lightning.

"Is this an illusion?" The Watcher Father's eyes stiffened. The world had changed in his eyes, becoming a world of lightning, with the Envoy as its master, controlling the Lightning Punishment.

"Chi..." A sword light that pierced the heavens seemed to tear apart the world of lightning. Endless sword light pierced through the sea of lightning. The Envoy's expression suddenly froze. He only felt a Skyless Sword light hanging above his head, drawing closer and closer. This sword intent was suffocating.

"Who!" The Envoy's expression changed slightly. Then he saw an old man strolling through the void. He carried no sword, but his entire being was like a Skyless Sword that could not be looked at directly. Wherever he passed, the sea of Lightning Punishment turned into an ocean of sword dao. The old man simply took casual steps, and the Lightning Punishment had to retreat, unable to block his edge.

The Envoy looked at the old man, his expression stiffening slightly. He raised his hands, and lightning rolled, but the old man continued to walk slowly toward him through the sea of lightning. The suffocating pressure grew stronger and stronger, so powerful it seemed about to crush him.

The Envoy held up terrifying Lightning Punishment power with both hands, but suddenly, he saw the old man's figure tremble slightly. The old man's sword had been drawn, seizing the power of heaven and earth. The Skyless Sword light stabbed at the Envoy's eyes, causing them to sting sharply, almost making it impossible to breathe. The old man's body drew closer and closer.

The Envoy wanted to leave, to move his feet, but he found that under the lock of this Skyless Sword intent, he simply could not move. Once he turned back, he would be met with a devastating sword strike. So he could only watch helplessly as the old man's sword pointed at his throat. The Lightning Punishment power on his body receded like a tide, disappearing without a trace in an instant.

The old man was none other than Skyless Sword Emperor. But at this moment, the wrinkles on his face seemed to have vanished, replaced by sharp, sword-like contours. His body was no longer hunched but straight as a sword.

"In this world, it is not your turn to take charge. You are merely a gatekeeper!" Skyless Sword Emperor's voice was sharp and boundless, causing even the Envoy to feel a slight sting. He dared not look directly at Skyless Sword Emperor.

"So strong. This is a true swordsman—sharp, lawless, and heaven-defying!" A gleam of light flashed in the Watcher Father's eyes beneath his bamboo hat. He had not expected Skyless Sword Emperor to possess such strength. When he did not act, it was nothing, but when he did, heaven and earth trembled.

The Envoy's expression was very ugly. In this world, it was not his turn to take charge? He was merely a gatekeeper?

In the distance, Eastern Emperor and the old Martial Emperor of the Sikong Family saw that the Envoy had been subdued, and their expressions changed drastically. How could this be? How could there still be a powerhouse of this level in this Small World? Could this person's full-powered strike truly tear open the sky?

"Eastern Emperor!" Skyless Sword Emperor's eyes swept over, his pupils like two swords stabbing into Eastern Emperor. The space where Eastern Emperor was located had already been sealed off. Wen Family Old Emperor and Yan Di were confronting him.

"You have been insatiably greedy and have crossed the line. From today onward, in the Eight Wastelands, the Emperor-Slaying Alliance organization shall no longer exist!" Skyless Sword Emperor's voice was calm, as if he were the ruler of this world, and his words were decrees.

The hearts of the crowd trembled inwardly. With Skyless Sword Emperor's terrifying strength, he indeed had such qualifications. If he wanted to govern this world, he would be its ruler. Now, he had finally decided to intervene.

Eastern Emperor's expression stiffened. At this moment, he too vaguely guessed the old man's identity. This unfathomably deep old man who had been hiding in the Sword Pavilion was none other than the Skyless Sword Emperor who had once shaken the Eight Wastelands.

"Also, hand over that treasure that can locate people. I will keep it for the person behind you for a hundred years. If he wants it himself, let him come to me to retrieve it!" Skyless Sword Emperor spoke again, causing Eastern Emperor's expression to freeze, his face growing even uglier.

"What, do I need to do it myself?" Skyless Sword Emperor's voice turned cold. Suddenly, it seemed as if a vast sword light howled forth, instantly descending upon Eastern Emperor. Eastern Emperor's body trembled slightly. Even the Envoy was as fragile as a puppet before him. If Skyless Sword Emperor truly wanted to kill him, he would probably be slain.

"I will convey this to the senior!" Eastern Emperor's body twitched slightly as he took out the Heaven Curtain Ancient Mirror and threw it toward Skyless Sword Emperor. His heart was still trembling, filled with fear. The Heaven Curtain Ancient Mirror had been borrowed, and now that Skyless Sword Emperor had taken it, he did not know how to explain.

Skyless Sword Emperor glanced at the Heaven Curtain Ancient Mirror and then put it away. Seeing this, the various Emperors of the Eight Wastelands breathed a slight sigh of relief. Only then did they understand where Yu Emperor's confidence came from. He had actually invited a figure from five thousand years ago—Skyless Sword Emperor!

This Skyless Sword Emperor was also acquainted with Lin Feng. The last time he appeared in Qi Country, it was to help Lin Feng.

Lin Feng, this fellow, was either incredibly lucky. Not only was he familiar with that powerful Daoist, but he also had a connection with Skyless Sword Emperor. If Skyless Sword Emperor had not acted this time, they would have had no way out and would have been forced into a dead end by Eastern Emperor and the Envoy.

"Alright, this world needs a hundred years of peace. Let us go!" Skyless Sword Emperor looked at the Envoy and said. Behind Skyless Sword Emperor, figures appeared one after another in the air. The Martial Emperors of the Eight Wastelands had all gathered here. They brought their juniors, all preparing to set out, wanting to leave this world.

The Envoy's life was in Skyless Sword Emperor's hands. He could only let Skyless Sword Emperor do as he pleased. He slowly turned around, and then the group's figures rolled toward the Eastern Emperor's territory. The sword kept him firmly locked down, making him feel oppressed and uncomfortable, as if even his breathing was not free, and he could die at any moment. The ruler of this world was now being controlled by another.

In an instant, all these figures disappeared from Sword City. Suddenly, Sword City seemed much emptier. But in fact, only a group of people had left—the top powerhouses of this world.

"Am I seeing things? Was that Skyless Sword Emperor?" Countless figures crazily flashed toward the location of the battle just now, their hearts trembling violently. They would never forget today's battle. It was too powerful and terrifying. The Lightning Punishment power that controlled heaven and earth, the Skyless Sword intent that pierced the heavens—those two powerhouses they had never seen before were so terrifying. How many secrets did this world still hold that they did not know?

The truth was so cruel. Once you touched it, everything became clear. But if you had not reached that level, you would not even know that this world was a false Small World!

Rolling clouds surged forward. It was actually the old man from Heavenly Wall Mountain Villa. When he sensed the aura of the battle, his expression congealed: "I came too late!"

With that, he rolled up a gale and left with the two figures beside him.

At the same time, in the Eastern Wasteland, at the end of the sky, within the Sun Ancient Castle, the vast castle no longer felt empty due to the arrival of the crowd. The Envoy pressed his palm onto the Sun pattern. At this moment, the power of the sky above the entire Eastern Wasteland rolled crazily, converging onto the Sun pattern. Then, the Sun pattern opened from eight sides, revealing a Gate of Nothingness—the passage gate to the Holy City Central Continent!

"Cross over, and it will be another world!" The crowd stared at this gate, a hint of melancholy in their hearts. Were they finally leaving this Small World? When would they be able to return?
