Because nobody wants to die.
No one believes they can survive against an Upper Realm expert.
Not even thinking they can take the next strike.
"Itâs really boring."
The Sword Demon looked slightly annoyed at those who were falling, then said, "Start running. Out of the 34 of you, Iâll only kill 17. Who lives and who dies depends on how fast you can fly. A quarter-hour later, if you find I havenât chased you, that means youâre the 18th person. Congratulations, youâre very lucky. But let me remind you, if you happen to survive, donât think of running again. I know your backgrounds very well. You can escape, but your families, your forces cannot. In a quarter-hour, I want to see the 17 living people at the foot of the Immortal Sectâs mountain. Donât make me come find you! Otherwise, even if the Sect Leader spares your dog lives again, I definitely wonât hold back!"
With that, the Sword Demonâs figure suddenly vanished from the original spot.
Those Earth Unrestricted Lower Realm experts who were falling suddenly changed their expressions and scattered, but just as they moved, someone screamed. The topmost Earth Unrestricted Lower Realm expert was already engulfed by a sky full of black Sword Qi.
The Sword Qi formed a circular barrier that wrapped around him directly. Beside the black circular barrier, the Sword Demon, exuding intense killing intent, was holding up the Black Saber.
As the Black Saber fell, the Sword Qi instantly started to contract.
The expert inside the circular barrier wanted to resist, the Meridian Gates shook simultaneously, and the Vortex Map opened, immediately releasing an Earth Level School Vein Skill for resistance. However, the imposing Vein Skill was torn to pieces by the omnipresent black Sword Qi as soon as it emerged.
An Earth Level Lower Grade School Vein Skill didnât even have the possibility of a counterattack.
In the next moment, the Sword Qi fiercely contracted.
Countless black Sword Qi penetrated the body, slicing it directly into countless small pieces, like tender tofu.
Only five breaths had passed since then!
In five breaths, an Earth Unrestricted Lower Realm expert had fallen.
The proud Spirit Body was utterly useless at this moment.
Those Earth Unrestricteds daring to look back were ashen-faced, knowing that they too only cultivated Earth Level Lower Grade School Vein Skills. They werenât much stronger than the one just killed by the Sword Demon, some were even weaker!
"Damn!"
"No, I must live!"
"I want to be the eighteenth person!"
The remaining 33 immediately scattered like birds and beasts in every direction.
The Sword Demon, holding the Black Saber, directly pursued the one who was frantically fleeing towards Star Sword Mountain.
After ten breaths, he was enveloped by a sky full of Sword Qi above Star Sword Mountain, and before he could react, his life was taken.
After killing another, the Sword Demon switched directions and continued the chase.
This scene fell into the eyes of the onlookers in the sky, and they broke out in cold sweat.
They came to see the fall of the Immortal Sect.
Who knew the situation would suddenly reverse, with the Earth Unrestricted experts from the Five-star Influences being harvested by the Immortal Sectâs experts.
Whoever flew the slowest would die!
Those from the Heaven-Defying Sect, watching this scene, immediately made a decision.
"Ally with the Immortal Sect!"
"We must ally!"
At this moment, Wan Changqing was more determined than anyone.
Is the Red Leaf Sect strong?
Yes!
But the Red Leaf Sectâs strongest is only Earth Unrestricted Upper Realm.
Do Red Leaf Sectâs Upper Realm experts dare to pit themselves against the Immortal Sect?
He didnât believe Red Leaf Sectâs people would be so foolish.
At this point, a Mountain Suppression Realm expert beside him poured cold water on the plan.
"Are you from the Heaven-Defying Sect dreaming? Your Heaven-Defying Sect doesnât even have an Earth Unrestricted. Why do you think the Immortal Sect would take you in?"
Wan Changqing and the others were stunned.
They wanted to retort but had nothing to argue with.
True, countless Five-star Influences would want to become vassals of the Immortal Sect, and it was unlikely to be their turn.
"If only I had made this decision earlier." Wan Changqing suddenly felt regretful, blaming himself for his earlier hesitation.
When the Immortal Sect expert killed the Nanhua Sect Leader back then, he should have immediately allied!
While Wan Changqing was regretting, the Sword Demon was pursuing further and further.
But to the Sword Demon, catching up with them wasnât difficult at all, because with a two Realm gap, their speeds werenât even close. Luo Shen and the others knew this situation, naturally fleeing desperately.
As time passed bit by bit, Luo Shenâs perception always monitored his rear.
For the first time, he found a quarter-hour so difficult to endure, but as time went on, he suddenly had a glimmer of luck in his heart.
If he hadnât been caught by now, he might be lucky!
As long as he survived today, he would surely achieve something in the future, because fortune favors the survivals of great disasters.
However, the next moment, his expression suddenly changed.
A sky full of black Sword Qi seemed to appear out of nowhere, suddenly enveloping him entirely, surrounding him on all sides, including above and below.
A trace of despair instantly filled his heart.
"No!"
He was unwilling!
Bangâ
All four Meridian Gates quaked. Luo Shen, in despair, shouted aloud before launching a counterattack, yet as the Vein Skill was just released, the black Sword Qi contracted. The Qi he released was like thin paper, cut into countless pieces.
"No!"
Luo Shen cried out his lifeâs last word in despair.
...
In the dense forest.
The Vice Sect Leader of Nanhua Sect flew close to the ground, choosing not to escape high up because he felt it was too conspicuous.
At this point, more than half of the quarter-hour had passed, which eased him considerably.
Thanks to his idea, the Sword Demon hadnât caught up with him.
