The cold night wind swept across the mountain peak where the Zetian Sect stood. The sky was still shrouded in darkness, but the silence of the night was soon broken by waves of energy approaching at incredible speed.In front of the grand gates of the Zetian Sect, Chen Nian stood with his hands behind his back. Beside him were Elder Dong Li and Zu Yu, the sect's First Elder and Sword Master, both prepared to face the approaching threat."How strong are they?" Zu Yu asked calmly, his fingers slowly brushing the hilt of the long sword hanging at his waist.Kang Ye, standing slightly behind them, answered without hesitation."The Three Golden Enforcers of the Golden Dragon Sect. Each of them is at the Late True God Realm. One of them may have even stepped into the Divine King Realm."Elder Dong Li let out a heavy sigh."Then this won't be an ordinary battle. Patriarch Han, should we request reinforcements?"Chen Nian slowly shook his head."There's no need. This is a trial for the Zetian

SLASH!Elder Dong Li slashed his hand through the air in an instant.SWOOSH! A golden blade of light shot through the Tiger Executor's body.BOOM!!A wave of energy exploded in all directions, creating a tremendous pressure that shook the surrounding ground. The Tiger Executor's eyes widened in disbelief. He gasped for breath before his body finally collapsed lifelessly onto the ground.Dong Li slowly let out a breath, staring expressionlessly at his opponent's corpse. "I told you, this battle is already over."On the other side, Zu Yu sheathed his sword. The wound he had left on the Sword Executor's body was still pouring fresh blood. His opponent no longer moved, lying motionless in the tense silence.Around them, the ground was covered with cracks caused by the fierce clash. Traces of sword energy still shimmered faintly in the air, while several trees had fallen due to the shockwaves.From the distance, Chen Nian stepped forward. His aura remained calm despite the battlefield befo

Golden Dragon Sect, Main Assembly HallBai Zhong sat on his throne, surrounded by the elders of the sect, all of whom were still filled with rage."We can't wait any longer," Hu Jian said in a deep voice. "Grant me permission to attack now!"Bai Zhong stared at him for a moment before revealing a cold smile. "You'll have your chance, Hu Jian. But we won't attack in the usual way."Another elder frowned. "What do you mean, Grand Elder?"Bai Zhong leaned back in his chair. "Zetian Sect has already prepared its defenses. If we launch a direct assault, we'll only lose more people."Hu Jian clenched his fists. "Then what is your plan?"Bai Zhong raised a finger. "We'll attack them from within."The other elders exchanged glances, trying to understand what he meant."I've already sent someone to infiltrate Zetian Sect," Bai Zhong continued. "He will make sure their defenses are weakened before we attack."Hu Jian narrowed his eyes. "Who is that person?"Bai Zhong smiled faintly. "Someone wh

The battle raged outside Zetian Sect. The Golden Dragon Sect's army, led by Hu Jian, attacked with astonishing speed, attempting to shatter Zetian Sect's defensive formations. However, despite their relentless assault, the defensive formations created by Dong Li proved far more resilient than they had anticipated. Every powerful attack they launched, no matter how dangerous, was blocked by the formidable magical barrier.However, Chen Nian knew that merely defending was not enough. He gazed across the battlefield with sharp eyes, as though reading every movement of the enemy and calculating every passing second."Move immediately. Execute our maneuver," Chen Nian ordered, his voice firm yet filled with calculation.Behind the defensive line, Zetian Sect's disciples, led by Zu Yu and Kang Ye, stood ready. They listened carefully to Chen Nian's instructions. Without hesitation, they moved to their predetermined positions."We can't let the enemy feel comfortable here. We'll fight them i

A cold wind swept across the battlefield that had been reduced to ruins. Flames still burned in various places, illuminating the exhausted and tense faces of those who remained. The Golden Dragon Sect's forces now stood in confusion, watching as their leader, Bai Zhong, faced Chen Nian in a hopeless situation.Chen Nian stood tall amid the ruins, his crimson sword still blazing with threatening flames. His piercing gaze locked onto Bai Zhong, who gritted his teeth as hatred burned deep within his eyes."If you surrender now, I can give you a chance," Chen Nian's voice rang clearly across the battlefield. "Become part of us."Bai Zhong sneered, his face filled with contempt. "Don't even dream of it! Zetian Sect is no place for us. I'd rather die than submit to you!"Chen Nian let out a short sigh, as if he had already expected that answer."Then die."Swish!In the blink of an eye, Chen Nian shot forward with astonishing speed. Bai Zhong, who had already prepared himself, immediately r
