Chapter 343:The pinnacle of the Sovereign

"This is a spiritual world. External magic treasures are completely useless here unless you possess a ninth-grade magic treasure with a spiritual essence, or your own spiritual awareness," Princess Qianyou explained immediately.

"Spiritual world?" Zhongshan frowned warily.

"Eight Extremities Heavenly Tail manifesting? Zhongshan didn\'t want it to manifest. Although the Eight Extremities Heavenly Tail was extremely powerful, its current strength was still too weak. Moreover, Zhongshan didn\'t want to expose it.

In the distance, Sword Hong thrust her black sword, and sword energy filled the surrounding skies. Countless sword energies surged towards Yuanxin, who countered swiftly with the Purple-Gold Patterned Dragon Staff.

The Hundred Ape Array utilized the spiritual essence of a hundred combined-phase apes, forming a specific array to create this spiritual realm. Their physical bodies remained outside, while their spirits entered this spiritual world.

"Wasn\'t the mental duel between King Daxuan and Nalan Piaoxue like this?" Zhongshan asked with a furrowed brow.

"No, theirs was a true spiritual world. This is only an incomplete one," Princess Qianyou replied.

"Oh?" Zhongshan was surprised.

"In King Daxuan\'s spiritual world, each could create whatever they desired with their spiritual power—armies, dragons, phoenixes—anything they imagined could exist. In contrast, this one is empty. However, it\'s not bad either. The Hundred Ape Array, created using the spiritual essence of a hundred combined-phase apes according to an array method, has constructed this space, which is already remarkable," Princess Qianyou explained.

During their conversation, a large number of club shadows surged towards everyone. However, upon encountering Zhongshan, they suddenly disappeared. This reassured Princess Qianyou and the others, although they were still very puzzled by this strange phenomenon. But when had Zhongshan failed to bring them doubts?

"The main array controller of the Hundred Ape Array is Yuanxin!" Princess Qianyou said.

In the distance, Sword Hong swung her long sword repeatedly, unleashing endless sword energy. Even within the Hundred Ape Array, she was not at a disadvantage. Her sword swiftly struck out again and again, each time striking heavily against the Purple-Gold Patterned Dragon Staff.

"The Sword God Palace Master is indeed extraordinary!" Princess Qianyou sighed.

"Sword Hong? Has she already surpassed the Imperial Realm?" Zhongshan frowned.

"No, although she has the upper hand, she is still at the Imperial Realm, with her cultivation reaching the pinnacle of the Imperial Realm. She is only one step away from reaching the Emperor Realm, the height attained by King Daxuan!" Princess Qianyou took a deep breath.

"Emperor Realm?" Zhongshan frowned.

"Yes, the Emperor Realm. If she reaches the Emperor Realm, she could instantly break through the Hundred Ape Array. This incomplete spiritual world cannot trap an Emperor Realm expert at all. However, once someone below the Emperor Realm enters, there is no escape, or rather, once someone at the Imperial Realm enters, there is no possibility of escape! Moreover, judging from the current situation, Yuanxin is also at the peak of the Imperial Realm," Princess Qianyou explained.

"But Sword Hong hasn\'t lost, right?" Zhongshan frowned.

"The Sword God Palace, she is the second-generation Palace Master, specializing in the sword. The sword is a weapon of slaughter, and Sword Hong\'s swordsmanship is extremely destructive. Therefore, Sword Hong\'s power often displays the strength of the early Emperor Realm. Coupled with her ninth-grade divine sword, her power is limitless. Even if Yuanxin is at the peak of the Emperor Realm outside, he would not be her match, because Sword Hong\'s swordsmanship is too powerful!" Princess Qianyou explained.

In the distance, amid the frantic battle between Sword Hong and Yuanxin, Sword Hong\'s strength was formidable. Even trapped in the spiritual world and unable to harness the power of heaven and earth, each of her strikes was executed with extreme decisiveness. Every sword unleashed countless sword energies, tearing through the void like a million swords tearing through the air.

Even within the Hundred Ape Array, Yuanxin was forced back repeatedly! She\'s too strong!

This was just within the array; if they were outside, Yuanxin wouldn\'t even have the courage to face Sword Hong in battle. Endless shadows of clubs surrounded Zhongshan, but suddenly vanished.

Zhongshan looked at Yuanxin in the distance, his eyes narrowing. Earlier, under the command of General Qitian, Yuanxin had aimed to crush him with a single strike of his club.

"Sword Hong, let me assist you!" Zhongshan suddenly declared.

Suddenly, Zhongshan waved his hand. Nothing was visible, leaving everyone puzzled.

"Hum~~~" Suddenly, the spiritual world around them trembled.

"Boom~~~" The spiritual world collapsed, and everyone returned to reality once again!

They were still standing within the Hundred Ape Array, just moments ago they were in the spiritual realm, and now they were back in reality, as if they had just awakened from a dream.

"Back to reality? Returned?" The eyes of the hundred great apes suddenly turned red, and they began breathing heavily.

Hongluan Mist, this was the freshest Hongluan Mist. Zhongshan released the Hongluan Mist, disturbing the minds of the apes. Their disrupted minds caused the spiritual world to suddenly collapse!

As for why Zhongshan said "Sword Hong, let me assist you!" before releasing the Hongluan Mist, perhaps Sword Hong didn\'t actually need Zhongshan\'s help, but Zhongshan spoke first and then helped.

Zhongshan noticed something: Sword Hong\'s eyes were numb and indifferent, viewing everything as lifeless. What kind of state was this? Xiaowang had died. She was Xiaowang\'s wife, now she was indifferent to the world, only seeking revenge. This was beyond heartbreak, and now he could only say that Sword Hong was heartless, devoid of any emotion.

It was only a matter of time before Sword Hong defeated Yuanxin. What would happen after that? Sword Hong certainly wouldn\'t have any friendship with Zhongshan\'s party. Killing them together wouldn\'t be difficult to understand, so Zhongshan wanted to plant a seed in her mind, a seed that she couldn\'t kill him.

Sure enough, the spiritual world collapsed after Zhongshan finished speaking.

Sword Hong paused slightly, turned her head to look at Zhongshan, but still showed no emotion, then turned to look around.

For Zhongshan, this slight turn of Sword Hong\'s head was enough, enough for Zhongshan\'s party.

As the spiritual world collapsed, Yuanxin was wounded by Sword Hong\'s sword with a single strike.

"Sovereign, run!" Yuanxin\'s first words upon coming out were a panicked shout.

"Ssss~~~~" Sword Hong\'s killing spree continued, and with a turn of her hand, a crescent-shaped light flashed.

"Puff~~~~" Yuanxin spat out blood and flew backwards.

Sword Hong\'s sword remained unstained by blood, but all the hundred combined-phase apes around her had their large clubs broken, and a red line overflowed from their chests—not a red thread, but rather where their bodies had been cut in two.

All hundred great apes were struck, all cleaved through the chest!

Yuanfei grabbed General Qitian and swiftly flew towards the sky, while Yuanxin threw the Purple-Gold Patterned Dragon Staff into the air, chasing after General Qitian. Yuanxin then wielded his own staff, leading the apes to charge at Sword Hong to intercept her.

Ada, A\'er, Zhongshan, and Princess Qianyou hurriedly fled towards the outskirts of the valley.

At this moment, just as Zhongshan had calculated, Sword Hong swung her sword, unleashing millions of sword qi. Previously, it was merely a mental confrontation, but now she could harness the power of heaven and earth.

Too strong! Millions of sword qi densely shot in all directions within the valley. However, these sword qi intentionally avoided Zhongshan\'s group.

Zhongshan\'s group quickly dashed out of the valley and flew to the outside.

"Squeak~~~~~"

"Ah~~~~~"

... The miserable cries of the apes echoed incessantly. They were extremely tragic, yet helpless.

Sword Hong was indeed too powerful. Her sword technique was so formidable that countless apes and monkeys had nowhere to escape. Sword qi, endless sword qi.

In the sky and on the ground, all there was, was Sword Hong\'s sword qi. The surroundings of the valley were enveloped in impenetrable sword qi.

Massacre, the ultimate massacre by Sword Hong! A cultivation at the pinnacle of the Sovereign Realm, yet possessing the strength of the Emperor Realm!

"Ah~~~~~"

"Ah~~~~~"

... The cries continued, but they became fewer and fewer.

Now, Sword Hong was only slaying the Sovereign Realm ape generals.

Standing outside the valley, besides the endless sword qi, there was also the sword light, illuminating the entire sky as if it were daylight.

"Boom~~~~~"

With wounds all over her body, Yuanxin ascended into the sky, attempting to flee.

"Boom~~~~~"

Millions of sword qi suddenly converged, forming a super giant sword qi that shot towards Yuanxin.

"Ssss~~~~~"

The body that Yuanxin had just escaped from was cut in half by a single strike.

Too strong! Both Yuanxin and Sword Hong were at the peak of the Sovereign Realm, but Sword Hong was simply too dominant! Under Sword Hong\'s overwhelming strength, even with numerous helpers and countless apes, Yuanxin was still slain by Sword Hong\'s overpowering strike.

The Sword of Utter Heartlessness!

Yuanxin died, and all the other ape generals and great apes in the valley died as well. In less than the time it takes to burn a stick of incense, no, even less, Sword Hong had ruthlessly slaughtered them all!

The dominant Sword Hong!

In an instant, Sword Hong flew out of the valley, glanced around, and followed the direction where Yuanfei and General Qitian had fled, transforming into a streak of sword light and swiftly pursuing!

"The pinnacle of the Sovereign Realm?" Zhongshan deeply sucked in a breath.

Too powerful! If Sword Hong appeared on the battlefield like this, there would be no need to fight! She would absolutely slaughter the enemy army!

Cultivation, realm, strength! Indeed, these three couldn\'t be compared!

Zhongshan, together with Qianyou, Ada, and A\'er, flew back into the Valley of Ten Thousand Apes once again. However, at this moment, the valley was already a mess. If it weren\'t for the formation keeping the valley solid, there would be no mountains left around here!

"General Qitian is in trouble!" Ada exclaimed.

"The hatred of killing one\'s husband, pursuing relentlessly to the death!" Princess Qianyou\'s voice was heavy.

Qianyou had already completely severed her friendship with Gulin. Otherwise, even if she didn\'t help, her attitude wouldn\'t be so indifferent now.
